Chapter 800 No matter how much you go, it's too little
The plague that occurred in July gradually subsided in late August. It is said that because all the damn people in the entire Xiliang area died, the weather gradually became colder, and people in the areas adjacent to the infected area ran away again, so the plague was gradually controlled.
Although the "big plague" that occurred in the western part of Liang Kingdom was controlled, most of the poor people who originally lived in Guanzhong area also fled. In recent years, ordinary people living in Zuo Fengyi, You Fufeng and Jingzhao Yin have been tortured. First, Dong Zhuo and Ma Teng fought, which caused panic; later, the Hu people who lived outside Yumen Pass came and caused chaos in the entire Sanqin land; now another sudden outbreak of plague directly forced the local people to migrate eastward and no longer miss their homes.
People with a little bit of mind can now see that the so-called "Xiliang Plague" is likely to be a double act that Zhao Xing and Jia Xu jointly sang, with the purpose of fooling the people in Guanzhong to migrate to the sparsely populated Northeast region, and help Zhao Xing realize his desire to completely control the Northeast.
The population in the Northeast is too small, and most of them are alien races, which is not conducive to Han officials' control and occupation. Because of this, Zhao Xing and Jia Xu thoughtfully came up with such a trick, and fooled nearly half of the population in Guanzhong to Youzhou and Jizhou.
Judging from the statistics and reported data of officials at all levels in Jin State, Youzhou and Jizhou, who are mainly in charge of the population, with the help of the "plague spread" incident, a total of 1.2 million people in Guanzhong migrated into Jin State, and then went to Youzhou and Jizhou from the "life channel" specially opened in Jin State.
Of course, when the people of Guanzhong passed through Jin State, they did not move to the east without leaving any left, but about 200,000 people finally chose to stay in the sparsely populated counties such as Shangjun and Xihe County of Jin State. These people will eventually be absorbed by local farms and various handicraft workshops, and will not end up being homeless and unemployed.
Some of the million people who went to Youzhou and Jizhou to avoid disasters were told that the plague in Xiliang had been cured and planned to return to their hometowns. They were depressed to find that the "life channel" of the past had been closed. The officers and soldiers guarding the passes and intersections politely told everyone that although the plague has subsided for the time being, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not break out again. For the safety of Jin State and for everyone's safety, the roads to the west have been blocked. People can move eastward, but they must not go westward.
Since there is no hope of going west, and various advertisements for the Northeast Development Development are spreading everywhere in full swing, many people have started to go to the immigration offices of local government offices on major transportation roads, and sign up with officials to participate in the "Northeast Development Development" plan.
The "Northeast Development" plan, which was personally responsible by Chen Gong, the Muslim in Youzhou, took him a month to do so just a book "Immigration Needs". After repeated revisions and argumentation, Chen Gong also secretly sent personnel to communicate with Zhang Xiu and others, and confirmed that the conditions promised by the government to immigrate could be realized. Then, when the refugees in Guanzhong arrived, they printed them into a book and distributed them as soon as they saw them.
The "Immigration Requirements" clearly states that if the family moves to the Northeast, the Jin State Agricultural, Soldiers, Commercial and Financial Association will provide a settlement fee at one time. The specific number will be determined based on the actual population of a family and the place to be visited. However, these have detailed calculation methods, and there is absolutely no introduction to undercover operations.
In addition to paying settlement fees, residents who go to the Northeast can get a piece of land with a size that is much larger than the mainland. Although the ownership of the land belongs to the government, the operating rights are for up to 70 years. As long as residents who go to the Northeast do not allow the land that is distributed to them to be barren and idle, the government will allow the family to retain the operating rights.
What is even more exciting is that according to the "Immigration Notice", there are large areas of uncultivated black soil in the Northeast. This soil is extremely fertile. As long as the seeds are sown, you can sleep until autumn and wait for a bumper harvest. There are also some land that is unowned wasteland on the periphery of the land that is distributed to each family. As long as it is reclaimed, it does not count the area, and it is given to the debris to cultivate together. The term is still as long as seventy years!
In addition to these two very attractive conditions, the government also formally promised that the population moving to the Northeast region will enjoy greater benefits than the mainland in terms of children's education and medical security, and can also claim merit from Jin State according to the contribution. Once the merits of a certain family or someone have a certain level, then this family will have the opportunity to move into Wohu City and become a permanent resident of Wohu City!
Faced with such generous conditions, not only the people who fled from Guanzhong were very moved, but even many poor households in Jizhou and Youzhou also signed up enthusiastically. By late August, the total population that was interested in going to the Northeast region reached a huge amount of one million.
Among these million people, 700,000 were the people of Guanzhong, 200,000 were the people of Youzhou, and 100,000 were the people of Jizhou. A total of 1.2 million people migrated from Guanzhong, 200,000 were left when they passed through Jin State, 100,000 were left in Youzhou, and 200,000 were more radically chosen to take a boat from Quanzhou City to settle in Sanhan area!
After receiving the entire immigration resettlement report, Zhao Xing was so happy that he couldn't stop. Although the Northeast region has not yet completely fallen into his hands, the Wuwan and Xianbei people who have been completely eliminated have given up large open spaces in the Raoleshui and Wuhou Qinhe River Basins, which are enough to accommodate many people. What's more, the vast areas from Tongliao to Changchun are still living and living. These areas are enough to accommodate many people to live and settle.
Perhaps in the eyes of some people, it is really an inauthentic or even inhumane thing that Zhao Xing used deception to force millions of people in Guanzhong to wander and move their families, but Zhao Xing did not think so at all.
The Guanzhong region in history was a densely populated area second only to the Luoyang region before the Dong Zhuo Rebellion in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The appearance of Zhao Xing in this life completely gave Dong Zhuo no chance to inflict Luoyang and Chang'an. In addition, Zhao Xing tried his best to prevent and fight the plague during the Bingzhou period, ensuring peace and stability in the Guanzhong region. Therefore, the population in Guanzhong has expanded rapidly over the years and has reached a base that may have destructive impacts on the environment.
There is so much population in Guanzhong and it is still growing rapidly. If you don’t find a way to move some to other places, there will inevitably be problems such as food crisis or environmental deterioration in the future.
Most of the people in Guanzhong who are willing to move are poor families with little family business and land. Zhao Xing tried his best to arrange such a place for everyone. Although it may be a little cold in winter, he really did not want to harm everyone. In the northeast, there are some open-pit coal mines. Isn’t it just that if you let everyone burn the kang to keep warm in winter?
Zhao Xing is now feeling guilty about not fooling the people of Guanzhong to go to the Northeast. He still feels that the population moving to the Northeast is not large enough. It will take more than ten years to achieve the goal of the great development of Northeast China.
