341. New Life

Silver State.

See Silvershire Harbor.

More than a dozen ships sailed from above the sea and docked at the berths in the harbor.

Anchor and sail.

Sturdy and spacious, reinforced planks are lowered diagonally from the deck to the harbor berths.

At the berth, the port staff used iron hooks to hook the ship board to the position below to achieve a fixed effect.

After lowering the plank, two movable planks on one side of the deck were pulled apart, revealing the slightly uneasy faces on the deck.

Each of these men carried several salutes on his back, either in his hands, on his shoulders or on his shoulders, and none of them were empty-handed.

As the dozen or so ships docked, the chiefs of each village who had come to the port early in the morning greeted them with a dozen or so people.

"Eh, you are all brothers from Qingzhou, let's get off the boat, this journey is tiring, we have already prepared food, take you and wait for a full rest, I will handle the household registration for you and distribute the fields."

"It's time for you to catch up this time, last year Taishou led us to open up more than 100,000 acres of farmland, and you can get ten acres of land after naturalization, all of which are good and good land, and it has been raised for a full year."

"And ah, you don't need to pay taxes for the first three years of this field, and you only need half a tax for the next three years."

More than a dozen village chiefs happened to have one person and one boat, and it seemed that it had been arranged from the beginning.

Under their words, these people from Qingzhou also followed them off the boat ignorantly.

It's not normal not to be ignorant, and many people are sailing such a long distance by boat for the first time, and now they don't know where they are.

Almost everyone will be cautious in the face of an unfamiliar environment.

A dozen or so village chiefs each disembarked from the boat with a few hundred people.

The people who followed them at the beginning began to check the bodies of the Qingzhou people who came one by one.

In case of diseases that may be contagious.

In fact, they had already checked once when they boarded the ship in Qingzhou before they came, but for the sake of insurance, it is good to check more.

About a quarter of a minute, these people were in charge of a dozen of them, and they quickly checked it out.

There is no special sick number.

Seeing this, the village chief also calmed everyone.

"Free check-ups are a good thing, in the past, we had to spend some money to see a doctor and hire a doctor, but now we don't need money to check on everyone, and you can rest assured that you know that there is nothing wrong with you."

"Okay, I'm tired all the way, let's eat, the food is full, don't eat to support your stomach, haha."

Let's talk about it.

The village chief took his hundreds of Qingzhou Baixing to the canteen in the port.

There are a lot of staff in the port, so the scale of the canteen is also large, and the order from the Taishou Mansion came down early in the morning, so the cooks of the port canteen have already prepared.

Fish buns, sweet potato polenta, sweet potato vermicelli, potato vermicelli you name it.

Before they arrived at the place, the people from Qingzhou smelled the aroma.

The spacious, bright and tidy canteen restrained the people of Qingzhou.

The young village chief who brought them here smiled and said with relief.

"Let's go, I'll take you to eat, this will be everyone's home in the future, and what will you do politely when you get home."

"Let's go, keep up, I haven't eaten in the morning."

The enthusiasm of the young village chief relieved the people of Qingzhou a lot, and they followed closely and followed the young village chief to the window of cooking.

The staff in charge of cooking are very enthusiastic: "It's here, it's been hard all the way, come, you can order whatever you want, and you're full!" ”

Perhaps it was because everyone was so enthusiastic along the way, and the people of Qingzhou at this moment relaxed a little in their hearts, under the guidance of the staff and the young village chief who was holding a bowl of potato flour.

The people of Qingzhou have eaten hot food.

"The chopsticks are over there, and next to them are buns, and the bowl you want to eat is it, just don't waste it."

As long as a Qingzhou citizen gets food, the staff will say in the direction they are going to walk over.

And the young village chief who was so smug was standing where the chopsticks and steamed buns were placed, and he couldn't help but say that he recommended the taste of the steamed buns.

That enthusiastic appearance really made the people of Qingzhou really feel like they were coming home.

Delicious food soothes these people who have left their hometowns.

Eat and drink enough, everyone is satisfied, they used to be farmers living at the bottom, when have they ever eaten something so tasteful.

That bun, white noodles, I have only heard of it, and this is the first time I have eaten it.

The flour in the bowl is strong, and it is also a fine food at first glance.

With such preferential treatment, ninety percent of these people recognized the place after eating this meal, and they were also convinced by the enthusiastic village chief in front of them.

"Have you eaten enough?"

The young village chief casually wiped his mouth with his cuffs, then blew his nose and asked.

"If you haven't eaten enough, take some steamed buns, this thing is oily and watery enough to fight hunger."

With that, he himself stepped forward and took two of them and put them in his pocket.

Seeing him like this, all the people followed suit, but they didn't take much, and like the young village chief, the two were satisfied.

"Eh, yes, let's go, you will be in the same village with me in the future, my name is Zhao Ji, your village head, you can call me by my name or Village Chief Zhao in the future."

"Let's go, let's go through the household registration."

After a meal, the three or four hundred Qingzhou people felt very good about the village chief in front of them, and their courage gradually let go, and they asked Zhao Ji one by one in Qingzhou dialect with a slight accent.

"Village Chief Zhao, can we really get ten acres of land by ourselves? Don't have to pay taxes yet? ”

"Of course, why did I lie to you."

While talking, Zhao Ji walked out of the big canteen with these hundreds of Qingzhou people.

Facing him, he happened to meet a young village chief who was as young as him and came with hundreds of Qingzhou people.

"Yo, eat well, so fast?"

"Haha, let's not do anything else, the first place in dry rice, don't nag, the big guys are hungry, you can take it to eat quickly."

"Cheng, see you then."

"Well, see you later."

The two teams staggered.

Seeing that the two village chiefs were the same age, Zhao Ji asked with some curiosity.

"Village Chief Zhao, you are all so young, you can look at me at such a young age that you shouldn't ask, you shouldn't ask."

snapped, the person who asked the question gave himself a mouth, and some flattered Zhao Ji, although they get along a little well now, but after all, the people are the people and the officials are the officials, not to mention that the village officials are directly in charge of them.

If this is remembered, it will be difficult in the future.

Zhao Ji laughed: "What do you do to beat yourself, what can't you ask, we are not officials of the Han Dynasty, and we don't pay so much attention to crushing people." ”

Then he turned around and said solemnly to the people of Qingzhou: "I know what our previous days were like, I am also an ordinary person who has been rescued in the past few years, and I used to be like everyone else, I had endless labor and taxes every day!" ”

"However, now everyone is different, everyone has been saved by the king, in the future, farming is enough to eat full, and there is even a surplus that can be sold to the Taishou Mansion every year, none of the words I just told you are a lie, we will never have to pay so many miscellaneous taxes in the future, in the future, everyone can live with peace of mind!"

Zhao Ji said it solemnly, but the people of Qingzhou, who were used to living a hard life, were only half-convinced, and they still had the worst plans for themselves before they experienced it.

It's business as usual.

Get used to it.
