Chapter 317 There is light in their eyes (first update, please subscribe)

Sometimes there are questions that don’t need to be asked.

You only need to see her eyes to know the answer!

Because there is light in her eyes, that light is happiness, joy, and difficult to conceal...

After everything is confirmed, what happens next?

Nobody knows.

But the plan to restore Margaret's true identity is moving forward bit by bit. According to Li Yian's plan, it was promoted there.

And all of this is unknown.

The day after Lady Mountbatten arrived in Chang'an, a huge ship finally arrived in the South China Sea - Kota Kinabalu, which has been renamed Nanhai County.

The arrival of this giant ship also brought unprecedented shock to people.

It’s not that people here haven’t seen giant ships. As a port, large merchant ships such as Liberty Ship and Victory Ship once docked on the two piers that go deep into the sea.

But those merchant ships are only about 10,000 tons.

And now the "Borneo" is a giant ship of more than 83000 tons!

It is even the largest cruise ship in human history!

And it belongs to Nanyang!

Suddenly, the beach of the South China Sea was filled with people watching.

People crowded onto the beach and the port, watching the ship. The shore was crowded with people, and the ship was also crowded with people.

More than 50,000 immigrants have been waiting for this moment for the past three days, and now they have finally arrived!

"This is Borneo!"

The people on the deck looked at the land curiously. They know they will be working here for the next ten years.

Their contract duration is ten years.

Of course, ten years is just an agreed time.

In Li Yi'an's view, in ten years there will be few people who will abandon their homes and careers and abandon their stable and happy life in Nanyang.

After all, at that time, they already had a home, a wife and children, and a stable life.

According to the arrangement, these immigrants will first undergo isolation training for half a month, and through simple literacy and testing, factory workers and farm workers will be screened out. The former will be sent to factories, while the latter will go to reclamation sites to open up rainforests or work in plantations.

However, the immigrants on the Borneo knew nothing about all this. Now, they only had one thought in their minds - to get to the shore.

"Oh my God, I can finally go ashore!"

Lin Dahu, who was born in northern Anhui, has never been on a boat a few times in his life. From the time he was born until this year, he had never been to a place further than the town. Until this year, when he went to pick salt in northern Jiangsu with his fellow villagers, he heard that After arriving here and earning several hundred yuan a month, Lin Daozhe from the same village took the initiative to apply for immigration.

The reason why he took the initiative to apply was just like going out to pick up salt, because there were too many people in his family, and the five brothers had never had enough to eat on the more than ten acres of land.

In fact, while he was in the town, he heard about a company that came to the county to recruit immigrants to Borneo, where they could earn hundreds of dollars a month.

At that time, no one believed it.

"A few hundred yuan a month, you're just lying!"

But when he arrived in northern Jiangsu and saw a long line of people, each of whom had received their settlement allowance, he was moved.

The settlement fee of 1,000 yuan was enough to give the second and third sons a wife, so as soon as they got excited, they signed the contract with their cousins, received the settlement fee, and let the people in the village who came out to pick up salt take it home. After waiting for two days, he boarded the giant ship.

When he got on the boat, he found that it was crowded with people, including people from Lu, Henan, Su, and Anhui provinces, and most of them were bringing their families with them. Many people directly use the settlement fee to buy a daughter-in-law nearby. Because the couple can earn more wages.

In this way, like everyone else, the three of them took turns sleeping in a bunk. After three days on the boat, they finally arrived in Borneo.

"Brother, we really should have used the settling-in allowance to buy a daughter-in-law. Each one could have earned 2 yuan more!" Once again, Lin Daozhe regretted why he didn't spend the money to buy a daughter-in-law, who could have earned more money!

"It's okay, it's okay. Once you make money, you still have to worry about not having a woman!"

As he spoke, Lin Dahu's eyes were full of expectation as he looked at the land. The same was true for most of the others.

Although there were more than a dozen gangways, it still took a whole day and night for more than 50,000 people to disembark. Late that night, Lin Dahu, like others, was taken to the resettlement camp in a truck. Although it was only a small room Although there were only a few bunk beds in the dormitory, when he looked at and touched the beds, he was almost crazy with joy.

"Finally I have my own bed..."

Lin Dahu, who is already twenty years old, has never had his own bed. He just shares a bed with his brothers.

"Not to mention a bed, if you come with your wife, you can even get a couple's room!" Fang Jinglin next to him said in an envious tone.

"Where...the couple's room is over there. Look, look, the lights are out, the lights are out..."

What are you doing when the lights are out?

Everyone knows that in the next fifteen days, Lin Dahu and the others will stay here. During the day, they will learn literacy and conduct simple queue drills - this is the tradition of the labor camp, in order to make it easier to militarize the workers. manage.

But after a cultural class after dinner, there is nothing else to do. What else can people do when they return to their rooms?

Of course, a bachelor like Lin Dahu is chatting and bragging. As for the couple living in a couple's room, they are of course living their little life. They have a comfortable environment, sufficient nutrition, and a future they can imagine. I don’t know how many couples started working hard to create humans while they were still in the camp.

Of course, it doesn't stop them from thinking about the future there,

"12 yuan a month..."

In the dark room, the sweaty man stared at the ceiling and muttered to himself.

"I'm twelve, eight yuan, 20 yuan a month. Even after deducting food expenses, I still have more than ten yuan left a month! That's more than a hundred yuan a year..."

"Master, do you think this will be like this every day in the future?"

The woman with her head resting on the man's arm is not thinking about money, but about life.

"Three meals of rice a day. Not only do you have enough to eat, but you can also eat meat at noon. When my mother married me to you, she only wanted to exchange 800 yuan so that the whole family would not go hungry. I wanted to eat When serving food, even if you burned high-quality incense in your previous life..."

The woman leaned her head hard against the man's chest, wishing she could shrink into the man's arms, talking about the days.

"But now, I live like a dream. I have enough to eat every day. I don't know if I can live like this every day."

"You stupid bitch, you think about food every time you see the sky... These days will definitely go on. Didn't you listen to the instructor? This is the president's care of us! We are in charge of food, housing, and so much money. We are in trouble. What a great guy..."

"What? Isn't the president stupid? If he feeds us so well, he won't be afraid of making our mouths cunning. I even think the fish is a bit fishy..."

After hearing what his mother-in-law said, the angry man slapped his mother-in-law on the butt:

"You are stupid! This is the president taking care of our compatriots. Silly woman, our family's good days are coming."

"I'm not stupid,"

The woman buried her head on the man's chest and said.

"I just don't believe that all this is true. After all, no one has ever been so kind to us. Do you think he is stupid?"

When the woman was speaking, her face was full of smiles, and the light bursting out of her eyes was difficult to conceal even in the dark.

When a man listens to this woman's words, there is also light in his eyes. That kind of light cannot be concealed by darkness. He can penetrate the darkness and everything.

The man smiled and said.

"We are blessed, blessed..."

When the couple was talking, their eyes were filled with light...
