Compared with the Mongolian immigration camp, the work of Daming immigrants is much more rigorous, and all departments of the company attach great importance to it from the beginning, and they are all personnel with rich grassroots work experience as squadron leaders and squadron instructors.

The facilities and food provided to the migrants are several levels higher than those in the Mongolian migrant camps. After each immigrant was purified, he received a very rich personal belongings, not as shabby as the Mongol immigrants, with only a set of clothes and bedding.

This year's immigrants from Daming are mainly Shanxi immigrants who have gone to sea from the Yellow River waterway, with more than 200,000 people. This was followed by Jiangnan immigrants sent by Song Shiping from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Liu Xiang from Guangdong, and Zheng Zhilong from Fujian, with a number of 70,000 or 80,000. Cai Huaze from Shandong also sent more than 10,000 immigrants from Shandong this year. In addition, Wu Xiang of the Guangning Army sent more than 10,000 displaced people from Li.

Because of Cai Huaze's joining, he reported that the number of immigrants from Shandong will increase significantly next year. It is expected that the number of immigrants from the Far East from Daming will exceed 400,000 next year. This also made the Far East extremely excited.

While everyone was excited, there was also a huge pressure in their hearts. This year, the company has concentrated on transforming hundreds of thousands of Mongolian herdsmen and accepted more than 300,000 Ming immigrants, and the consumption of food and other materials is extremely huge. The Far Eastern Company predicted that from the first year of the great drought in Chongzhen in 1637, the number of Ming refugees received by the company would at least triple each year, and it was bound to increase year by year.

In order to meet the upcoming drought in Chongzhen, all departments of the company have taken action, first of all, large-scale hoarding of materials, other materials can be dealt with, but food is indispensable.

Next year will be the great drought in Chongzhen, and the Far East has mobilized all its forces to make careful preparations for the arrival of large-scale migration. A large amount of silver deposits were taken out, and all localities were seizing the time to buy grain. The first is Song Shiping, Zheng Zhilong, and Liu Xiang, who use all kinds of formal and informal means. In Daming, they bought all kinds of grain crops on a large scale, whether it was old grain or new grain, even if the price of grain was already very high, they did not hesitate to do it. As a result, the price of grain in the coastal areas has been greatly raised by them.

The Far East Company's Guangning garrison area, and also through Guò Guanning Army, Wu Xiang from Daming Jingshi, Zhili and other places, as well as various military towns of the border army, also got a lot of food. No way. The price given by the Far East is really high, and Wu Xiang has always wanted to tie up with the Far East, so he desperately searched for food through guò relations.

Through the Ming Dynasty's spies, Wu Xiang already knew the news that the northern grasslands were swept away by the Far East. After listening to this, he sat for a long time, and then said to his son Wu Sangui with a wry smile: "Far East, tiger wolf......

The Luzon Management Committee also increased the amount of grain purchased from Siam and Southeast Asian countries, and a large number of granaries were built in Manila. Every day, sea boats loaded with rice sail from Siam and all over Southeast Asia to Manila. Even Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming, who occupied the Champa country, learned of the news of buying grain everywhere in the Far East, and sent people to send a large amount of Champa rice, because there was no shortage of grain there.

Although they have a very prosperous life, the Nguyen clan in the north and the state of Chenla in the west have always been eyeing them. They know that once a fight breaks out, it will absolutely not be able to do without the support of the Far East. So they have been tying up the Far East in various ways, hoping that when they go to war with the Nguyen clan in the north and the state of Chenla in the west. Can get the support of the Far East.

The local kings of Nanyang are not far behind. They also raised food on a large scale and gave it to the Nanyang Management Committee. The Far East destroyed the Mataran Kingdom in less than three months, which made them all afraid of the Far East, and they just took advantage of this time to buy grain on a large scale, hoping to maintain good relations with the Far East.

The Satsuma clan of Japan released a message to the daimyo and grain merchants from all over Japan to collect grain at a price higher than the market price. And it's all settled in cash. When the daimyo from all over Japan heard the news, they all sent grain to the Satsuma Domain, and they believed in the Shimazu family of the Satsuma Domain, and everyone knew that the Far East was standing behind them, and they also knew that the Far East was rich and wealthy, and there was no shortage of silver.

The Joseon dynasty of the Yi family heard the news. They even sent special people to escort grain to Jeju Island by boat, and they were damaged by the aborigines of the Northeast this year. Five counties had been lost in the north, and the North had organized an army and a large number of righteous people, but they were all defeated by fierce natives.

And this time, the natives of the Outer Northeast did not run away after the fight, but occupied the five counties and did not leave. As a result, the people of the north of Korea fled to the south with their families and mouths, which caused the North Korean authorities a headache, and they could only send envoys continuously, hoping that the Far East would control these natives from the outer northeast.

With the increase of immigrants from the Far East year by year, a large area of land in Liaodong has been developed, and the annual tax and repayment grain, the large farms in the Far East near Xingkai Lake are also a large amount.

The efforts made by Far Eastern Group are all aimed at welcoming the tide of migration brought about by the drought in Chongzhen, which will last for nearly a decade and may increase year by year. Who knows if the drought in Chongzhen will affect the eastern Liaodong region, once the eastern Liaodong region is also affected, the Far East will once again face the threat of food shortage.

In addition to grain, there are also materials such as cotton cloth and cotton that need to be hoarded on a large scale. Moreover, in the future, the immigrants will enjoy the policy of package production to their households, and the rations, seeds, production tools, daily necessities, cattle carts and other materials lent to the Ming immigrants must also be prepared in advance.

This year, hundreds of thousands of Mongolian herders will be transformed in preparation for the second phase of the northward plan. Starting next year, we will have to deal with the tide of migration brought about by the drought in Chongzhen in the past ten years. Anyway, in the past few years, the Far Eastern Company has not wanted to stop, it is really busy.

But even if the task is arduous, the Far East has to grit its teeth and hear that in the past few years, if there is not enough population, the Far East will not be able to develop Liaodong. Only by building Liaodong and the Outer Northeast can the Far East be qualified to win the Central Plains.

In recent years, the population of immigrants from the Ming Dynasty in the Far East has approached one million, plus hundreds of thousands of Liao people in Liaodong, although there are many people, but it is a drop in the bucket to the vast Liaodong and the outer northeast region. Moreover, immigrants are not just picked up, but also winter training is organized to accept the transformation of the Far East. Then they were assigned to various places and let them work and live in various positions in Liaodong. There are a lot of things to do, and any one of them will cost a lot of materials.

Over the years, various departments of Far Eastern Group have cultivated a large number of immigrant employees with rich working experience, and they have withstood the test of the company in several critical moments and shared a lot of work for the internal employees of Far East.

Today, more than 2,000 internal employees of Far Eastern Group have taken up leadership positions. The people who are active in the front line of the company are immigrant employees, and many immigrants have taken up leadership positions after several years of training and learning in the company.

In addition to the leading cadres at the battalion level of the field division and the internal employees of the company, the battalion level of the overseas brigade, garrison brigade, and mountain brigade is all served by migrant employees as commanders. Even in various departments of the Ethnic Affairs Committee, some high-tech positions are active in the figure of migrant employees. (To be continued......)
