Three days later, Zhang Han handed over the detailed regulations for immigration from various places.
After some deliberation by Ying Zheng, he finally decided on the plan and sent telegrams to local governments to inform them of the number of people they had set!
The government immediately took action, sending out all officers and soldiers, constantly shuttling through the streets, beating gongs and drums to publicize the immigration issue.
At the same time, the newspaper's front page headlines also published this matter, promoting the various benefits of immigration to Daqin and the people!
It was said that immigration would benefit the country and the people, and the imperial court would send ships to send people to Yizhou for free.
Moreover, the Ministry of Industry will build houses there for free. As long as they are willing to immigrate, there will be a large area of land that can be distributed.
Every autumn, the imperial court would send special personnel to purchase grain and help the people exchange money!
If the family moves and the number of people exceeds five, the court will also send tractors to help solve farming problems!
This treatment is even more attractive than the one offered by Nanyang in the past, in order to encourage people to migrate!
To put it bluntly, as long as you are willing to immigrate, you can ask for any conditions. As long as the court can satisfy it, try to satisfy it!
In Daqin itself, ordinary people cannot afford tractors at all and can only rent them from cooperatives.
But as long as they are willing to immigrate, the court will immediately give them to them for free.
After arriving in Yizhou, I just have a house, land and a car. Isn't it much better than staying in Xianyang?
"We have to be well prepared. There will definitely be an overwhelming number of people signing up in the past few days! The number of people must be controlled. The number of immigrants from various places is limited. If it exceeds the number, it will be difficult to account for it!"
"yes!"
The county guards from various places reported to the officials below.
The officials responded, worked hard, and called many officers and soldiers to the registration location to prevent the crowds of people from quarreling, fighting, stampeding and other incidents!
However, at the end of the day, not even a single person could be seen at the registration location.
This situation definitely exceeded the expectations of the county guards!
"It should be the first day of publicity, but the people haven't thought about it yet! For such a big thing as immigration, we must be cautious! There will definitely be more people tomorrow!"
The county guards held their chins, frowned and thought for a while before coming to this conclusion.
"Yeah! That's right! Although the transportation is convenient now, the state is too far away. A round trip takes at least two or three months, not counting the money spent on the road. Naturally, people have to think about it!"
"Yep!"
The officials under his command nodded repeatedly and flattered him.
Everyone set their sights on the registration location for the next day.
For safety reasons, officials brought more officers and soldiers than before.
By now the ice and snow had melted, and the ground was warm under the sun.
At the same time, the officials and soldiers responsible for registration were also burned out from the sun.
At first, officials could sit behind desks and wait expectantly for people to sign up.
But a few hours later, I couldn’t bear the sun anymore, so I ran to the shade and sat there, fanning myself with my hands, and muttering, “It’s really weird, it’s already the second day, why haven’t there been any sign ups yet?” ?”
"Yes, it should be said that the government's propaganda efforts are not small. Officers and soldiers are always running outside, beating gongs and drums to promote propaganda, even in every village. They go door to door to explain to the people. Why is there still no movement? "
The officials looked at the still blank paper on the table, feeling helpless.
But it’s no wonder they didn’t sign up. We can’t let them go to the streets to pull people, right?
So I felt at ease and enjoyed the cool air, glancing at the registration desk from time to time!
Those ordinary officers and soldiers are not so happy. Even if the sun shines again, they have to stand still!
It wasn't until the sun went down that the temperature gradually dropped, and the sweat on the officers and soldiers' cheeks gradually subsided!
However, this is how it is in early spring. As soon as the sun sets, the cool breeze starts immediately.
After a while, the officers and soldiers were shivering with cold again.
"Okay! Don't wait any longer, go back!"
Although they could not report to the county governor, they could not just watch the people under their command suffer any more. The officials had no choice but to order people to collect the tables and return to the government office.
…
"What? Still no one signed up? No way?"
The county guards in various places were full of confidence before and asked the officials responsible for registration to bring more officers and soldiers.
But two days have passed, and I didn’t expect it to be such a scene.
Now it’s even more impossible to make a deal!
"Is it possible that the journey to the countryside is too far, and it will take time for the people to think about it before rushing to the county?"
The officers and soldiers in charge of registration also helped come up with excuses.
"Alas! This possibility is very small! Although our county is wider, there are still villages nearby. They can get there in half a day, and no one has signed up!"
This excuse was so far-fetched that even the county magistrate himself didn't believe it.
Not to mention those from afar, there are many people in their city alone, but not a single person has signed up?
"It's really strange. Why can't those who live in difficulty in the city sign up to go to Yizhou? Once there, they will have houses and land, how great it will be!"
The officials under his command were also very puzzled.
Those who live a prosperous life may not want to leave, but some people have difficulties in ordinary times. They have to borrow even some food to eat. Why can't they immigrate?
"Alas! There are so many ways to make money now, and they can still live like that, but they are so lazy! They don't want to work at all. They can still borrow money to stutter if they stay in Daqin. If they go to Yizhou, everyone will leave. So far away, they still have to starve to death?”
The Sheriff sighed helplessly.
The government spends a lot of money and food every year just to help the poor people.
He really knows what those people think!
As long as there is still one bite to eat, they will never think about how to get the next bite!
If it were in the past, the government would not care about these people, they would love them to death!
But things are different now. The imperial court has issued an order that things like freezing to the bones on the road must not happen again.
So the government can only try its best to provide relief!
"makes sense!"
The officials under him thought for a moment, nodded repeatedly, and then looked at the county governor with a slightly embarrassed look, "Then what should we do next?"
The imperial court allocated tens of thousands of people to come to their county. Now two days have passed and no one has been recruited. How can they do their job?
"Humph! What else can we do? Increase the publicity...!"
The county guard snorted coldly and continued: "I guess the people in all counties think the same way. It's impossible that the people in our county are the only ones who are indifferent. I guess the situation in other counties is not much better! Let's do our part. Just take care of things!"
"yes!"
The officials under his hands bowed their hands in response.
The county governor's analysis was correct. The situation in other counties was indeed no better than theirs.
Some of them were in the same situation, not a single person signed up in two days!
In some cases, the situation is slightly better, with a few people signing up.
But the difference from the quota allocated by the imperial court is really not even a little bit!
