Lin Gao Qiming

Chapter 1501 Successfully Infiltrated
Lin Ming stayed at the Dongshan residence for a few more days until the quarantine period expired. Then he paid off his wages, packed his clothes and left the boat. Manager Liu must have some sense of being a human being to give him away. Lin Ming is naturally the only one.

According to the instructions of the port affairs, Lin Ming hurried to the customs building to apply for a temporary ID card as soon as he got off the ship. He was from a powerful agency, and he generally knew that it was something like a "road guide" or "waist badge" for a gangster. There was no such thing. It is difficult to move an inch in Lingao.He knew from the merchants that even a businessman who came to Gao for a short period of time to do business had to apply for a "temporary certificate", otherwise he would not be able to stay in a hotel when he arrived on the shore. It is unavoidable that I have to stay in the classroom for one night, and I can only come out after finding someone to prove it.If no one can prove it, you have to go to the river construction site to dig sand for several months.

Although the pier was bustling with traffic and the roads were intricate, the traffic signs here were very clear, and it was even easier for people like Lin Ming who could read.With little effort he came all the way to the gate of the customs house

Although the Customs Building bears the name of "Customs", it is actually a comprehensive office building for various departments in Bopu Port - since the Senate implements a near-free trade import and export tax rate, the actual business of the Customs is pitiful, and the natural organization And the personnel are also very "capable", not occupying a few offices.

For the purpose of streamlining the organization, Lingao's port authority includes various functional departments that perform official duties at the port in the old time and space, except for customs and police.And everyone who wants to stay in Lingao must obtain a temporary certificate, which is the top priority of the National Police Agency of the Senate.

Although the National Police is not as lofty as the Political Security Bureau, it is the cornerstone of all powerful institutions in terms of actual operation.Not only are most of the technical investigation projects controlled by the national police, but in terms of basic public sentiment, various powerful agencies also rely on the national police to implement them.

After the work of comprehensively clearing the land in Hainan was completed, the national police began to deploy police agencies to comprehensively clear the work of household registration.This work first started from the densely populated and developed counties in Qiongbei, and then advanced to the south.Not only mobilized all the police, but also mobilized a large number of students from the Fubo Army and Fangcaodi.By the end of 1633, the household registration statistics, registration and issuance of identity documents for the Han, Miao and Shuli populations in the former Ming ruled areas of Hainan Island had been completed.The population figures, age composition and sex ratio of the whole island of Hainan are roughly mastered.

On this basis, starting from 1631, the national police began to establish temporary identity cards at several major population entry points in Hainan in response to the increase in the number of foreign traders, seasonal workers, and immigrants who voluntarily went to Lingao, Qiongshan and other places The registration and issuance points have established a short-term stay system for holders of certificates.Under this system, migrants can apply for temporary identity cards ranging from [-] days to one year according to their own needs.If any foreign population is found to be active in Hainan without obtaining a temporary ID card, they will be arrested immediately once they encounter a random inspection.At the same time, people without documents cannot stay in hotels, rent houses, let alone be employed by others or apply for business licenses.In short, without a certificate, it will be difficult to move an inch.

Whether it is the National Police, the Political Security Bureau, the People's Committee of Civil Affairs, or even the Planning Yuan, the various government departments of the Senate urgently need to understand the dynamics of the floating population-many places in Lingao and Hainan have begun to Social features of the pre-industrial era.To control the floating population, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive monitoring of the dynamics of the population.Entry and exit registration, identity card and household registration system, together with accommodation registration and employment registration, can roughly guarantee a certain degree of social control even under crude technical conditions.

Lin Ming didn't understand the twists and turns, but he was very clear about the power of this system.When you arrive at the registration office, you first register and fill in the form, followed by the physical examination: the so-called physical examination is nothing more than stripping off your clothes and letting the health staff take a look to see if there is any epidemic disease or the like.With Lingao's level of health care and administrative resources, it is still impossible to allow everyone who enters the country to accept "purification". Only the "immigrants" organized by the Senate and the "immigrants" through the channels of recruiting, enrolling and joining the army can enjoy such treatment.However, in Lin Ming's opinion, "respecting" is not a good thing - even this shrunken "physical examination", he felt humiliated.

"I never imagined that I would be so humiliated and humiliated! I will be at odds with the thief!" Lin Ming came out of the medical examination room, fastened his belt, and thought viciously.

Holding the medical examination form with the result of the physical examination as "good", Lin Ming returned to the counter. Sitting on the wooden counter was a girl who was also wearing a cotton official uniform, but it was black.With short hair cut to the ears - Lin Ming already felt that this hairstyle was shocking: not only unseemly, but also unbearably ugly.I really don't know how the beauty and ugliness of the Kun thief grow!
"Fingerprints, one in each grid, don't press the wrong one!" the girl ordered, Lin Ming pressed the fingerprints of ten fingers on the registration form one by one under the guidance of a naturalized policeman next to him, and then again on the registration form. It was done in the same way on a small piece of cardboard.

"Okay, here is your temporary ID card." Finally, the girl put the jammed paper under a strange machine, pressed the iron handle hard, took it out with a click, and handed it to Lin Ming, "The validity period is one year. , you will have to exchange your certificate after the expiration date.”

Lin Ming took the "Australia Guide", and saw that not only did he have his ten fingerprints on it, but also his name, age, height, main features of his face, and a string of Arabic numerals.It was stamped with a round seal—but it wasn't a bright red one, but an embossed stamp stamped on it with a mold.Lin Ming knew that with just this one hand, the possibility of counterfeiting and forgery was basically eliminated.Looking carefully, it turns out that this cardboard is not ordinary thick paper, not only thick and strong, but also has intricate patterns on the paper, which cannot be engraved and printed by ordinary woodcut boards at all.

He hid the Luyin close to his body, it was the most important thing, if Lingao lost it, he would be unable to move an inch.According to the girl Kun's instructions, some circulation coupons were exchanged at Delong's counter-the circulation of gold, silver and copper coins has been completely banned in Lingao.

Just about to step out, a middle-aged girl behind a table at the door immediately greeted her with a smile on her face:
"Young boy, you have just arrived in Lingao! Do you have relatives and friends in Lingao? No? Hey, you really have no relatives. It looks like you are not rich, and you will inevitably struggle in a new place. I see you Good-looking, talented, and able to read and write, why don’t you come to the vocational training class held by our Civil Affairs People’s Committee! After three months of study, you will be assigned to various destinations. Those who are willing to work and serve as soldiers, if After the training, I have a good grade, and I can be a cadre directly... Shaving my head? Shaving my head is not decapitation, the hair can still grow back, and after shaving, it is clean and clean without fleas, and it is convenient to take a bath... Serving the Senate and eating well I am full, I have a house to live in, and a wife... Hey, hey, don't leave, this great opportunity is right in front of you, don't miss it..."

Lin Mingfu seemed to have escaped from the female cadres' barrage of rhetoric, but he also knew that the gangsters valued educated people very much, so they focused their search on them, and they wanted to rebel just because of this.

After leaving the customs building, he decided not to stay here. There are many people here and there are many guards: with his eyesight, it is easy to spot the plainclothes personnel operating near the port pier.The so-called big hermit lives in the city, so Lin Ming decided that the first step is to go straight to Dongmen City, find a job there, find a place to live, and slowly inquire about the news after he settles down.

When he was exchanging circulation coupons, he had already inquired clearly that Dongmen City is not far from here, and there are roads connecting each other. ".Seeing his appearance, the girl at the exchange counter suggested to him to "sit for a while" and "open your eyes".He also pointed out the way for him: "Go out of the pier and walk along the main road, and you will see a three-story red brick house with several arches below it, which is the station."

He carried the package on his back and went to Bopu Town.Bopu used to have no permanent population except for a few fishing households, but now it has become a bustling port town with new and tidy houses and streets.The wide streets paved with black gravel smelled of sea water and fish.There are many shops on both sides, bustling with people.Lin Ming noticed that many people in the crowd were "new arrivals" like him - rags and ragged clothes, carrying a small package on their backs, walking timidly.This reassured him a lot.

He walked to a tall red brick house, but saw people rushing out of several arches like a tide, and many people pouring in through other arches. There is a big red character: "Bopu Station".

Although newcomers to Bopu have heard similar recommendations, most of them have no knowledge of "trains", let alone entering "stations" for the first time in their lives.Many people lingered at the door, afraid to go in, and only looked at the door.Fortunately, the blue-clothed guy at the station was very enthusiastic. He kept greeting and guiding them into the station. Some illiterate people even helped buy tickets for them.Lin Ming was good at reading, as long as he followed the signs, he would be able to go all the way: where to enter, where to buy tickets, where to go and what price, all of them were clearly written in big blue and white letters.There was another guide and greeting in the station.So although there are many people coming and going, it is not chaotic.

Lin Ming saw the price clearly and bought a ticket to Dongmen City. The ticket was a small one, thicker than the thickest and strongest leaf card, and it said "Bopu-Dongmen City" ", "Second Class Carriage".At the bottom is the date and a line of small characters: Only take the car on the day.
