The huge team slowed down the transportation of these spring tax collectors, but after nearly ten days of traveling, more than 300,000 refugees finally arrived at Nanli County in their imagination.
As soon as they came out of the mountains and forests, the hot air that hit their faces made people feel that they were already in a different world from Yunzhou County.
In the wheat field at this moment, the wheat has been harvested long ago, but the wheat stubble left in the field, also known as straw as the saying goes, is still left staggering in the field.
Most of the refugees were farmers. They noticed the fields all over the fields at a glance. Looking at the stubble of wheat, their hearts became completely calm.
The Yunzhou County officials didn’t lie to them, and King Yun didn’t lie to them either. There really was land here, there really was land!
This is enough to make them happy.
The arrival of 300,000 refugees naturally requires resettlement. Fortunately, in order to suppress the assassination of Shendu, the escort army carried out several massacres in Nanli County. Now there are several empty cities that can accommodate these refugees.
The unowned land around the city was allocated by officials sent by Yunzhou County to manage the local area, and the land was divided among all the refugees according to established rules.
However, 300,000 people were quickly settled in Nanli County.
The common people who first arrived in Nanli County were still nervous at first. They didn't know what to do in the homes assigned to them by the county governor's office.
But when the officials of the county magistrate's office allocated the land to them and pointed out the direction, almost everyone hurried towards their own land in a hurry.
Lao Li Tou was no exception. He hugged the little girl and ran towards the land allotted to him. He didn't look like an old man who was almost sixty years old. His hands and feet were as nimble as those of a young man!
When I got to the field and looked at the twisted wheat stubble in the field, my ancestral DNA immediately started to move. I put my little granddaughter down, ran into the field in a few steps and started pulling out the wheat stubble with my bare hands!
But after pulling out a few trees, he suddenly realized that he was really stupid. How long would it take to pull out this season's wheat stubble?
Immediately, Lao Li Tou returned to the edge of the field, picked up the little girl and ran home.
When I got home, I told my little girl not to run around, and then I quickly ran towards the Yamen in the city.
As soon as Lao Litou arrived at the yamen gate, he found that he was not the first to come. There were already more than a dozen people blocking the yamen gate, waiting for the yamen to open.
No, after waiting for about a quarter of an hour, as soon as the Yamen opened the door, everyone swarmed in, startling all the Yamen servants.
After regaining consciousness, the county magistrate who was sent to take charge of the local area began to ask everyone about the purpose of coming. When he learned that everyone came here for the purpose, Yunzhou County promised to help them build a new home and give them land interest. Loans are used for development.
Suddenly, the county magistrate Zheng Chunlin immediately pointed out the location to the Financial Secretary to the people.
The people did not continue to embarrass this useless magistrate, and turned around and poured into the Financial Secretary.
The Financial Secretary is a newly formed department in Nanli County, which is responsible for providing relief and interest to the people who are new to Nanli County.
It is a specially established additional department unique to Nanli County.
Following the direction pointed by Zheng Chunlin, a group of people came to the Financial Secretary.
This place is different from what everyone imagined. Originally, everyone thought that this place would be no different from an ordinary government.
But I didn't expect that under the simple appearance, the financial interior would be so luxurious.
It is different from what you see from the outside. The Financial Secretary inside can be described in four words: magnificent.
The decoration of a golden-roofed stone wall looks extremely luxurious under the light. The ground is covered with a soft red carpet, which forms a sharp contrast with other surrounding colors, making people walk on it without consciously holding their heads high. I have a strange feeling in my chest.
The common people who were fearless just now became restrained as soon as they came in. They looked around timidly, and then gathered together in front of the counter.
After some careful conversations, a group of people finally figured out the procedures for low-interest loans.
In fact, it's quite simple. As long as they take out the small wooden plaques issued to them by the Nanli County Yamen when they were originally resettled, which is something similar to ID cards, they prove their identities as people from the Song Dynasty who migrated here.
Then they can receive an interest-free loan unconditionally.
The amount was fixed at fifty taels of silver per person, which was enough for these people to settle in their new homes.
Lao Li Tou quickly borrowed 50 taels from the finance department and left the place quickly.
He felt that this place was not a place where people like him would often come. The decoration was too high-end and it should be a place where dignitaries should come.
But he didn't expect that he would have to deal with this place for several years.
…
I went to the supplies market purchased by the government, purchased all the utensils and food that my family lacked, and then pushed a wheelbarrow to transport everything back home.
By the way, I just bought this wheelbarrow. It only costs half a tael. Lao Litou thinks it is a very good deal and can be used to transport a lot of things on a daily basis.
When I got home, the little girl took out two pieces of cake and handed them over to her surprised eyes. Then she carried a shovel and a hoe and walked towards her own field with great pride.
As for the twenty acres of land, Old Li Tou will finish it for him in the past two days!
He knew that the autumn wheat planting here was about to begin, but there was no time to delay.
When he lowered his head, Bahba spit in his hands, rubbed them, and then Lao Li Tou waved the hoe and started working.
And this kind of scene is not just his case, almost all the surrounding places have this kind of scene.
Everyone was not lazy and immediately came to work in their own fields.
With their own land, everyone is full of motivation, no one is willing to be lazy, and everyone is looking forward to a good harvest.
When the Song people first arrived in Nanli County, the officials dispatched by Yunzhou County in Nanli County did not put them together with the poisonous aborigines.
Because two different ethnic groups have different living customs. If they come together rashly, various disputes and problems will inevitably occur. It is better to separate the two first. After more contact in the future, they will naturally integrate.
However, everyone in the Nanli County Yamen is quite confident about the Song people's fusion ability. Isn't this the Song's innate skill?
Since ancient times, many foreign races have integrated into the Song Dynasty. No matter how long it takes to inherit the Song Dynasty, so far there are only Song people.
As for where are the foreign races who lived together with the Song people in the past? Aren't they already integrated?
The arrival of the refugees here brought Yunzhou County's foundation in Nanli County to a higher level. Over there, the entire defense line of Nanli County ushered in the first impact from the army of the Poison King's Capital.
On the sixth day of June, a small town called Mawu County, a county-level city located on the easternmost border of Nanli County, was attacked by the poisonous army.
Mawu County is just a small city. There are only more than 300 soldiers guarding the city. As soon as the soldiers completed their daily patrol, they felt the ground shake. Then the soldiers discovered that on the horizon outside the city, a large group of black people were pressing. The army is slowly coming.
At a glance, there were more than two thousand people, and behind this thousand-man army, there were dozens of behemoths slowly approaching with four hooves that were as thick as rafters.
Just looking at it from a distance, this monster with four beams, legs and a long nose gives people a great sense of oppression.
The pressure on people's hearts can't help but increase.
The leader of this army is an Emil who comes from the command of Prince Shendu, and has the qualifications to command 2,500 people.
He specially followed the order of the eldest prince to attack Xia Mawu County and give the army a good start.
…
Note: (For the body poisoning system, I adopt the Manshabudar system of the Mughal Dynasty in ancient India. Manshabudar is divided into thirty-three levels, ranging from 10-horse commander to 10,000-horse commander, with the highest level among them. The official ranks of 10,000 riders, 8,000 riders and 7,000 riders are limited to members of the royal family.
Among the rest, those who command 10 to 40 cavalry are usually called "Manshabudar", those who command 500 to 2,500 cavalry are called "Emil", and those who command more than 3,000 cavalry are called "Emil-i-A" Zam” or “Umda”.
I won’t explain it specifically in the article later. )
