Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2160 Bustle and Migration

In mid-spring, merchants gathered in Liangzhou city.

Since the Xiliang female soldiers guarded Yumen Pass, everyone no longer has any worries about Yumen Pass.

Whether it is from the Tang Dynasty or the merchants from the Western Regions, they all embarked on this Silk Road one after another.

And if they don't want to travel too far, most of them will choose to stay in Liangzhou.

Make some trade exchanges here.

The arrival of these people made Liangzhou City very lively.

Liangzhou City, which was originally deserted, suddenly seemed to be full of people.

Commercial Street, Firework Lane, and Liangzhou City are still not as lively as Chang'an City, but compared with other important towns in the Tang Dynasty, they are not bad at all.

The number of people who come here every day, and the exchange of trade, have almost created a new high.

And as these merchants came and went, some news spread one after another.

Cheshi country.

Gold Village.

This is a dilapidated village in Che Shi Country. Although this place is called Gold Village, there is no gold here, only yellow sand.

In their place, the crops are not very long, so the people here are not living well, and many people are relatively poor.

But before this, these people still enjoyed such a life quite comfortably, because they didn't have to leave their hometowns, and they didn't have to be forced to go to Xiliang.

Che Shiguo promised to give Xiliang 1 people. At that time, some people came to them to find someone. They were very scared at the time, but later found that the people in Che Shiguo were looking for those old people, or the labor force was not enough. No matter how good they are, or if they are lonely or widowed, they are all relieved.

From their point of view, most of those who were selected to be sent to Xiliang would die on the way. Even if they came to Xiliang alive, they would have no way to survive in Xiliang, and their life must not be very good.

But when they were thinking this way, news about those people came.

Ma Lier is the only businessman in the Golden Village. He usually sells some daily necessities outside to the Golden Village to meet the daily needs of some people in the Golden Village. It is a bit like some canteens in the village in later generations.

And because he often goes out, he has better news than the people in the village.

After he came back that day, he told the people in the village what he had heard.

"You know that Ur?"

"I know, I know. Wasn't Ur captured and sent to Xiliang? Is he dead?"

"That must be dead, why not go to Xiliang?"

Some people think Ur is dead, but Marley II shook his head: "Not dead, not only not dead, but also living a pretty good life, he was an old bachelor before, after going to Xiliang, Xiliang people followed Among the people he was with, he found a wife for him and a job for them, and now his life is very nourishing."

The people in the Golden Village are all poor people. When I heard that they were poor like them before, and Ur, who couldn't even afford a wife, went to Xiliang, and got a wife, and she still had a job, and lived a happy life. Yes, these people were shocked, and especially curious.

"This Ur's luck is really good, he didn't die, and he found a wife."

"Unfortunately, other people are not so lucky,"

Ma Lier shook his head, and said again: "Wrong, the fate of the others is also very good. They are living very well in Xiliang now. The king of Xiliang has made proper arrangements for them. Those who can do coolies will do it." Coolies, if you can’t do coolies, you can serve as guides for some merchants and interpret for others. Anyway, they can eat three meals a day in Xiliang now, and they have a house to live in, land to cultivate, and work, which is really pretty good.”

At this time, the villagers of the Golden Village were dumbfounded. What was going on? They were glad they didn't go to Xiliang, but they didn't go. Instead, they continued to live a hard life.

And those people who went to Xiliang are not as healthy as they are, but live a better life, which is really unreasonable.

"Does Xiliang still need people?" Someone finally couldn't help asking, if they can live a good life in Xiliang, they want to go too, there is no way, they can't even get a wife here, they might as well go What about Xiliang?

"I heard that Xiliang is very open now. People from any place can settle in Xiliang after they go to Xiliang. As long as they live there for three years, they can become Tang people. Of course, there is no one who doesn't want to be a Tang Dynasty person." It doesn't matter, as long as you live there, it's fine. If you go, Xiliang will arrange some resettlements for you. Of course, not everyone will be resettled. They have a place called a talent market. After you go, you can temporarily rest yourself Then they will provide jobs according to your talents. If you don’t have a suitable job for the time being, they have porridge tents there, but they won’t starve you to death. Once there is a suitable job, they will arrange it for you. .”

Ma Lier told what he had heard. After hearing this, many people in the Golden Village were moved.

It’s definitely a good thing that you don’t have to worry about running out of food when you go there. They don’t have many talents, but they have strength. After they go there, they should be able to find a job, right?

Those who were in poor health before them could find jobs, and they believed that they could too.

After discussing with some people from the Golden Village, they hurriedly left the Golden Village and headed towards Xiliang.

Now that the Silk Road is open, as long as they can show their identities, they can leave Cheshi Country, and after arriving in Xiliang, they can live in Xiliang after obtaining some documents.

This is no trouble for them.

These people came to Xiliang one after another.

In the late spring, many people from Xiliang had already migrated here one after another. These people were not only from the Che Shi Kingdom, but also some people from the Tang Dynasty.

There are still many poor people in various parts of the Tang Dynasty. Many people can't afford coal in winter and can only endure the cold. After they heard about Xiliang, they can use coal for heating in winter, and they came here one after another.

If they don't come, they may freeze to death in winter. Now that they come, there will be an extra way of life.

Perhaps for many people, they don't like to migrate, and they don't like to leave their hometowns, but they still want to migrate if they don't like it, isn't it for living?

Humans have been migrating in order to survive from a very early age.

The arrival of these people is very helpful for the prosperity of Xiliang, but at the beginning, it will definitely cause a certain amount of pressure for Xiliang.
