The wheel of history is slowly moving forward, and the new year is soon coming. In last year's census of the poor, a large number of harvested 'heads' have gathered in Chang'an.

Just as Chang'an City was the eastern starting point of the overland Silk Road in history, it is now also the starting point of a large number of people who migrated westward.

All over the country, mainly the 'poor' in the provinces north of the Yangtze River, and the people in the provinces south of the Yangtze River [the immigrants from Jinling were divided in half] all took boats, took boats to Tianfang, and then traveled by land to Anguo [Lu Wan] and Luo [Lu Yu]. The poor people in the provinces north of the Yangtze River had to rely on horse-drawn carriages. They dragged their families one by one, and there are still many long-distance distances for thousands of miles, how can they do it without a carriage?

In the past, the people of various provinces took the township as the unit and the prefecture and county as the cluster, and it took several months before and after, and batches of water passed through the camp outside Chang'an City.

Now, the immigrants from Qilu Province have finally arrived. It's already April, and I don't know if they'll spend the winter there this year.

The camp was filled with neighing horses.

Liu Dahai had already accepted his fate. After realizing that he really couldn't escape, he disposed of the family property as quickly as possible, and then bought a two-horse four-wheeled carriage to load the necessary daily necessities and his wife and children.

But he still doesn't have a concrete plan for the future. You must know that the four feudal states that were canonized by Emperor Lu this time in the western end of the country, in addition to the Anguo [Lu Wan] intended in Asia Minor and the Luo State [Lu Yu] in the North Caucasus region and the South Russian steppe, there was also Lu Yun, the king of Mu, who shared the Rus and the western end of the Western Kipchak steppe with Lu Yue, the king of Wu.

What Liu Dahai is facing now is not the problem of choosing King Wu and King Mu, he has no choice in this regard. He was unlucky enough to be assigned to King Wu's territory, and he had the right to choose a foothold among the twelve counties and forty counties.

There are a total of 12 counties, 1 prefecture and 50 counties in Wu State, and a figure like Liu Dahai, who has struggled on the poverty line for many years, is not qualified to settle in the ten counties to which Xin'an [Kiev] Prefecture belongs.

In the resettlement camp outside Chang'an, the walls of the notices are covered with big-character posters, and for the migrants crowded here, each big-character poster is a "life-saving straw" and a door to a new life.

And at the bottom of the big-character poster, the presenter also left an 'address'. Just inside the camp, a small area fenced off by a crossroads, which divides the entire area into four sections, each of which is a square divided by a crossroads. On both sides of every street and alley here, there are small tents, and people with various accents are shouting loudly, as if they were the ones that later generations shouted for big sales and big sales.

The tent was very rudimentary, with only a large blackboard, a few rows of small benches, and a desk in front of the blackboard with stacks of advertisements. Nothing else.

But before the immigrants pass by, these small tents are always crowded with migrants with panicked and dazed faces. They are just people from the Propaganda Office of the Resettlement Bureau under the vassal states.

Each little tent corresponds to a place, which may be a county, or a country, or more likely a county.

The stacks of advertisements on the table are an introduction to the area to which they belong.

"Rong County, Rong County, thousands of acres of fertile land are waiting for you, and the treatment in Wu is the most lucrative place. We are looking for innocent, healthy and powerful men and women! People share a thousand acres of fertile land, whether men, women, old or young! The maximum loan can reach 100 yuan, everyone comes to Rong County......"

"Yajun is located in the southeast of Wu State, the climate is suitable, far away from Xiyi. Those who want fields have fields, those who want grazing have pastures, and craftsmen can get higher loans with grade certificates! Whether it is the external environment or internal factors, it is the best choice for everyone to settle down and buy a home! ”

"As long as you are steadfast and strong, Zijun Copper Mine is waiting for you! Immerse yourself in work for three or five years, and have plenty of food and clothing for a lifetime! Come to Zijun, come to Zijun! ”

This is just a cry at the county level, and when it comes to the county level, it is even more complicated.

Liu Dahai was dazzled and listened to it like numbness.

But after all, he has read books, and he also pays attention to the news in the newspaper on weekdays, and knows that the most important things about this emigration are three points. First, whether the situation is secure; second, how is the treatment; Third, what are the development prospects?

The state of Wu is in the westernmost part, thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, and there are enemy countries on the side that have not been eliminated, not to mention a danger. After Liu Dahai learned that he was assigned to Wu Kingdom, he sighed to himself for a while. If it were his heart, he wouldn't have gone to Wu, and Japan on the side was a good place to go. If you want gold mines and gold mines, and silver mines and silver mines, why go all the way to Wu? But it's not up to him.

"Zijun...... No, the mine is too tired and dangerous, and the loan is scarce. "He doesn't have much money left now, and he's worried that no one will put him in debt?

"Yajun...... It's not good. "It's too miscellaneous, not only are there many natives there, but there are also a large number of barbarians outside the border.

"Rong County...... that salary is really high. 1,000 acres of fertile land per capita...... "Their family of five is 5,000 acres, a whole 50 acres." But where is it too dangerous......

Liu Dahai suffered from difficulty in choosing, and he had not made a decision after floating outside for a whole day. When I returned to my lodging with the setting sun, I saw that my wife had brought back dinner. The two older children were already feeding themselves, while the remaining little ones were snuggled in their mother's arms, fed eggs little by little.

For these immigrants, Lu Qi's treatment is very good. For children under the age of 12, two eggs or two pieces of meat per day, both bacon and salted fish; For children under the age of 16, one egg or a piece of bacon per day must be guaranteed. The food for adults is salty porridge with dough cakes, and the porridge contains minced salted meat and salted fish, or dried shrimp and fish skin.

Of course, the fish skin is not the skin of the fish, but the scraps of some small fish, small shrimp and large fish are mixed together, beaten into a bean skin like a glutinous cake, and then steamed and dried, which is very durable.

There are such salty porridge and dough cakes, plus brick-like tea bricks, the latter needs to be boiled and drunk by themselves, and adults will not lack nutrition if they are hungry. In this way, even if it is a long-distance migration, as long as the migrants are in good health, not many people will die no matter how far they are on the road.

"Rong County, go to Rong County!"

Liu Dahai said the conditions of the counties and counties in Wu State, and his mother-in-law shouted without thinking about it.

"the fart of Rong County. It's a border county, and Xiyi Bao can't kill it one day, and he will go to Rong County......"

"Liu Dahai, you are a wreck, you are still not a man? Thousands of acres of land, the future of your son is not as important as your rotten life, isn't it? Xiyi has been killed, what is the use of the imperial court? If they can kill them back, how can the court still beat them? ”
