Chapter 696 Am I the Island Owner?
Lu You acted very quickly, and the notice was quickly posted on the city wall. The people of Yucheng have been paying attention to the government's movements, wanting to know whether the government will reduce the rent this year, or send relief food. So as soon as I saw the notice, I was surrounded by people in an instant.
The illiterate people were very anxious: "What is written on this notice? Please read it out if you can read."
Literate people looked at the notice and read word by word: "Relocation notice, due to the drought in Yucheng..."
It’s just that when the word “migration” comes out, people who understand it are surprised: “What does it mean to migrate? Are you going to move us all away? But where are we going to go?”
The person who read the announcement continued to read, and then he was overjoyed: "It's a good thing, the prince and the princess have found a new island, and it is currently being developed. We can all go there. It is the fiefdom of the prince."
If it were others, these people would definitely not be so active, but if it were the prince and princess, it would be different. The appeal of these two people is not ordinary, so many people started to go to the gate of the government.
The yamen servant was startled when he saw the crowd coming, "What do you people want to do?"
The notice has just been posted, are these people coming to the government office to make trouble? Sure enough, it's really not a good idea to ask people to move or something.
The man who read the notice just now looked at the yamen servant in front of him: "Big brother, don't panic, we just came to ask if what the notice said is true? Are we really going to relocate all the fiefdoms of the dead son?"
The yamen servant nodded: "It's only natural that the notice was posted, and the emperor specially sent General Dong to deal with this matter. Those who want to go will be given out food on the way, and a month's worth of food will be given out when they get there. At the end of the month, it was enough for everyone to find a job and support themselves."
It's not that this yamen servant understands so well, but that the yamen servants in the entire government office have been specially trained, and they are very clear about this matter.
When everyone heard this, they felt relieved: "Then we are planning to go, how should we contact the general?"
Is this person in such a hurry? The promised homeland is hard to leave? Why are you so positive? Fortunately, the general has already said: "If you want to go, you can come to the Yamen to register. If there are enough people, General Dong will naturally send soldiers to escort you to the South Island."
When they heard that they had to register, they became anxious one by one: "Where to register? I want to register now."
The yamen servant frowned: "Have you all thought it through? After registration, we will be leaving soon, and we must have our Dazhou household registration to register. After arriving at the location, we also need Dazhou household registration."
It turns out that Dazhou household registration is still needed. These things are very precious, and they won't keep them on their bodies. Looking at the crowd, the yamen servant is still explaining.
"Not only the household registration, but also those who have houses and deeds. After registration, when you arrive in the South Island, you can use these things to exchange for the same value."
This is what was said in the message sent by Qian Jiujiu before. Anyway, the island is very big, and the migration should not make the originally wealthy people impoverished.
The value of some people does not apply to labor. Among these people, there may be many smart people who can be cultivated in the future.
Everyone didn't expect such a good thing to happen, and they were all overjoyed: "Brother Yamen servant, if there is anything else that needs to be explained, let's talk about it together."
The yamen servant nodded: "When registering, bring the Dazhou household registration, house deed and land deed, and all the family members. Only when the whole family agrees to move out can you come to register."
The last sentence made everyone a little dull. The people who came now were all young people. They only wanted to go to the South Island as soon as possible, but they ignored their families.
Today's Yucheng is destined to be very lively, every household is discussing the topic of migration, besides the people in Yucheng, there are also people in other villages who are also discussing these things.
Some old people in the family would rather stay here than go anywhere, and some old people agreed, so people in a village agreed to go to the village head to register soon.
If the village head reports to the government office, the government office will arrange people to accept it. On the first day, more than 30,000 people came to register. This was something Dongchen didn't expect, but he was still very satisfied with the result.
Three thousand people were sent out to escort these 30,000 people towards the South Island, and so many people, their luggage at home, and the food distributed by the court, just set off in such a mighty way.
People in some cities along the way watched such a large-scale migration and wanted to join in the fun, but they were ruthlessly driven away.
When the people here set off, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao received the news from Dongchen. At this time, on the South Island, those who were arrested had almost been sent back, and it seemed extraordinarily quiet .
Only the soldiers who were still guarding the island, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao had already visited the island, and then Qian Jiujiu began to divide the villages and cities according to the terrain, and where to build them. Now everything is ready, just waiting for people to come.
"Husband, you said that hundreds of thousands of people consume it, which is probably a lot. Let's move all the food out of the space first. In the future, I'm afraid we will still need to use food to feed these people."
Originally, he thought that the matter of building the island would be left to the emperor, who would let the emperor take care of these people. Who would have thought that if the emperor left people to Nan Nan, then he would still lose them!
Mu Yexiao nodded with a smile: "It's just right, the previous pirate warehouses have been cleaned up, and with their food, we can put some in there."
On the South Island, all the pirates were arrested except for those who were killed during the war. There were also some women. Leave it to the court to deal with it, Qian Jiujiu has no sympathy for these people.
And not to mention the so-called treasure left by the Wang family on the island, there are enough things that the islands themselves robbed. Gold, silver, jewellery, gold bars, everything, they are already earned, and there is still a lot of food.
Among these grains, add some grains again, and these grains add up to enough to feed hundreds of thousands of people in Yucheng.
Qian Jiujiu also planned out the places where the land needs to be developed, and when the two felt that they were about the same, Xiaoman brought his people to Fucheng.
When she arrived in Fucheng, she would naturally go to the other courtyards of the Wangfu. When Xiaoman was outside, she lived in the other courtyards of the Wangfu. After all, she had a token in her hand, and the other courtyards of the Wangfu were all over the entire Zhou Dynasty.
The steward looked at the token and knew who the person in front of him was: "I have seen the county master."
Xiaoman nodded: "Get up, where are the prince and princess?"
The butler answered quickly, and then moved away to let the county master and others come in: "The prince and princess are both on the island now, and the island's prince and princess are in the other courtyard."
Speaking of which, the butler has already waved someone to tell the prince and the county master that the county master Yongxi is here. The South, South, and North North looked at the seaside model they had made during this time, and nodded in satisfaction: "There are not many, and now we have to find a way to transport it back."
As soon as the words fell, a servant girl spoke at the door: "My son, the princess, the county master Yongxi is here, and he just entered the door."
Auntie is here? South, South, North and North looked at each other, and then they didn't even care about the model, and ran outside all of a sudden, to meet Xiaoman.
Liu Sheng and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. Who is the owner of Yongxi County? It sounds familiar, but why does a county lord make the prince and the princess so anxious?
"Why don't we go see him too?"
The corner of Wan Xinxin's mouth twitched: "Master Yongxi is relatively unfamiliar to you, but General Mo is no stranger to you. This Lord of Yongxi County is General Mo. If you want to meet him, you'd better hurry up."
After finishing speaking, Wan Xinxin quickly followed the backs of the two of them to catch up. The others were taken aback for a moment, and then hurried to catch up.
Nan Nan Bei Bei ran all the way to the hall, and stopped when they saw Xiao Man's figure, and then Bei Bei coaxed him to rush up and throw himself into Xiao Man's arms: "Auntie, I miss you so much."
Xiaoman reached out to catch Beibei, and looked at the two cheerfully: "You two have grown a lot taller, you look like big kids? During this time, your parents are busy, what are you playing with?" ?”
Beibei chattered about what he was up to, and even talked about the competition with his brother. Xiaoman reached out and touched the top of Nannan's head: "Needless to say, Nannan lost again, right? What a good brother."
Upon hearing this, Beibei frowned: "Auntie, you are biased."
Xiaoman raised his eyebrows: "Where am I biased? Speaking of which, this time I came here, my aunt brought a gift for your brother, and you will say that I am biased after hearing this."
As he spoke, he put Beibei down, took out the imperial decree, and looked at Nannan: "Don't kneel down to accept the decree."
Nan Nan looked at Xiao Man helplessly, then knelt down, watching Xiao Man read the imperial decree, so the island became his fiefdom?
After receiving the imperial decree, Nan Nan stood up, not in high spirits: "Nan Nan, what's the matter? You look a little unhappy?"
Nan Nan took a deep breath: "Auntie, that island is now sealed as South Island, and it will be my fief in the future. I will be the owner of the island? How can I support a person on an island?"
Xiaoman blinked his eyes, burst out laughing, and before he could explain, Beibei patted his brother on the shoulder: "Brother, don't worry, you still have me, I'll help you raise them together, we are so smart , Let alone an island, even if there are a few more, they can afford it.”
Nannan glanced at Beibei: "Beibei is the best."
Xiaoman rolled his eyes helplessly: "Okay, whether you can afford it or not depends on your parents! So don't panic, Nannan, you can afford it."
Nan Nan frowned. Although my aunt said so, but as the owner of the island, he couldn't always rely on his parents for financial support. Doesn't that seem useless?
No, from the looks of it, he needs to make good money, otherwise he can only take the subjects of an island to beg for food.
