Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 314 Immigration across the sea ([-])

Haizhou City has developed commerce and trade. Although it is only a new city, it is a distribution center for all kinds of raw materials and has a large population.

Weighing the two hundred cash that was sent to them, the refugees always felt that it was not real.

Walking into the bustling Haizhou City, they feel that they are dreaming even more, because not only the roads in Haizhou City are spacious and flat, the buildings are tall, but also the shops are neat and reasonable. Many of them are even cheaper than in the heyday of Tang Dynasty.

They simply came to a place that was richer than the Central Plains of the Tang Dynasty before the Anlushan rebellion.

The refugees were frightened by hunger. Although the two hundred Wen in their hands was given away for free, no one dared to buy other things indiscriminately. Most of them bought rice noodles or other necessities.

Carrying the rice noodles that they did buy, the refugees still couldn't recover for a long time.

"Recruitment, two yuan a month?" When they first saw this job recruitment information, the refugees thought it was a lie, but when they realized that it was not a lie, their eyes almost popped out.

You know, even before the An Lushan rebellion, landlords or merchants recruited workers, and five or six hundred yuan a month was regarded as a "high salary", but the recruitment of workers in Haizhou City actually paid two yuan a month.

If it is replaced by rice, it must not be five or six shi rice, and one shi rice is enough to feed a family of four for a month. Doesn’t it mean that the salary for one month’s work is enough for a family of four to eat rice for five or six months?

In fact, these refugees don’t know that the general wages of the Anton Protectorate are only one to one and a half. The reason why Haizhou City’s wages are so high is purely because Haizhou City is a distribution center for all kinds of goods by sea, and the amount of labor is too large. , and the population of Anton Dufu Mansion is limited, and it can't recruit people for only two yuan a month.

The environment and treatment in Andong Dufu Mansion are really good. The refugees feel that they have come to a paradise. Fortunately, before they came, they wondered whether they would fall into the fire pit. Looking at it now, the East Festival of Wu Guoan Dushi Li Fei is really a very good person.

From the next day, these refugees were slowly resettled. Those who were willing to work in various industrial workshops were arranged to work, and those who were willing to farm were distributed with land.

After more than three years, countless cement and manpower were used to build water conservancy and reclamation. Now the Anton Governor's Mansion doesn't have many things, and it can't find people to cultivate the most fields.

After all, the average job nowadays has more than one month's wages, and at least twelve in a year, and farming the fields can only produce two or three stones of grain per mu per year, which is less than a month's wages.Moreover, not only young and strong men can participate in the work, but women can also participate in the work. After a year of work, the husband and wife can earn at least 24 yuan or more.

Many of the original people in Andong Duhu Mansion are now unwilling to farm the land, and they drag their families to work for wages.

It's just that those refugees who have just arrived at the Anton Governor's Mansion and their thoughts are still stuck in the fields are those with all incomes who are willing to work hard to cultivate the land.

More than [-]% of the refugees choose to cultivate the land.

As they were resettled and the land was released to their hands, they were shocked again. They thought that the land that could be distributed to their hands might be the kind of uncultivated wasteland that was extremely barren, but when they got the land, But I found that every piece of land has ditches, and they are all good fields relying on water.

Such a good field was given to them to cultivate.

What's more surprising is that the person in charge of resettling them also explained to them that the tax of the Protectorate's Mansion was so low that it couldn't be lower, and it was several times lower than the land tax of the Tang court in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.

Xanadu is nothing more than that. The refugees are full of expectations for their future in the Anton Protectorate, and they are even more grateful to Li Fei from the bottom of their hearts.

The second and third batches of refugees were also continuously sent to Anton and resettled.
The Anton Protectorate's Mansion exploded with energy once again, and it was in full swing.

Everywhere there are newcomers and refugees helping each other, building their own villages, houses, etc.

South of the Bohai Strait, along the coast of Dengzhou.

The [-] large ships of Anton's fleet docked again. While unloading the ships, they also arranged for the fifth group of people to board the ships and prepare to cross the sea.

Returning from Anton this time, what they brought was no longer food, but weapons and armor of the Anton cavalry system.

Not only the 2000 or [-] recruits recruited in Nanyang, but also the nearly [-] anti-army Han soldiers who were captured in the Battle of Suiyang. They are now members of the Anton Iron Cavalry. Naturally, Li Fei will replace them with Anton East iron cavalry standard weapons and armor and so on.

Zhan Tao was the first of the group of recruits in Nanyang to emerge, and now he is the commander of Anton's Iron Cavalry Hundred.

When I first joined the Anton Cavalry in Nanyang, the armor I wore and the weapons I took were taken from the rebel soldiers. Compared with the standard weapons and armor of the Anton Cavalry, they were completely different. He is extremely jealous of the standard weapon armor of Anton's cavalry.

Putting on the new steel armor, holding a horse lance, a horizontal knife at the waist and hips, and a magic arm crossbow on the side of the horse, it was armed to the teeth. Zhan Tao was so excited that he rode his horse and galloped non-stop, feeling that he was too mighty.

Those elite anti-army Han soldiers who were captured in the Battle of Suiyang put on the standard armor of Anton's cavalry and rode on their horses. They were also very excited, their faces flushed.

In the past, they were the most primitive Youzhou army of the anti-army. They had fought against the Khitan and Xi people for years. They also owned the most sophisticated weapons such as Mo Dao and Heng Dao. Steel armor, and a powerful crossbow.

They personally shot an arrow with the god arm crossbow, and they knew that their defeat in Suiyang was not wronged.

Every one of them has the blood of the anti-army barbarians on their hands. They can't go back to the anti-army camp, and they don't want to go back to a place that only values ​​barbarians and doesn't give them a way out for the Han people. The Anton Cavalry is where they will work hard in the future.

In an instant, these soldiers who were the elite of the anti-army battle had a strong sense of belonging to Anton Cavalry, and had a real loyalty to Li Fei.

Whether it was the group of recruits recruited by Nanyang back then, or the nearly [-] anti-military elites who merged after the Battle of Suiyang, now Li Fei has disrupted and reorganized into a member of the real Anton Iron Cavalry.

At this moment, there are 4000 people reorganized by Li Fei's Anton Cavalry, which is 4000 more than when he left Andong thousands of miles to attack Mawei Station. While continuing to wait for the remaining refugees to cross the sea to the opposite side of the Liaodong Peninsula, Li Fei is also constantly practicing to reintegrate Anton's iron cavalry.
