Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 1123 A Safe Destination

It has been more than half a month since Wei Na returned to China, but Victoria still has no news about the colonization of the south coast.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is normal.

The colony that Victoria won was 3000 square kilometers, which is neither big nor small.

Starting from the south coast to the north, the range can radiate to Nanwan Town where he sold sandworms before, almost including dozens of small hidden villages including Nanye Village.

Compared with the whole, the coastline of his entire sandworm breeding base, including the follow-up development plan, only accounts for less than 50/1.

This kind of colonial affairs cannot be prepared in a day or two.

Of course, Victoria officials need to prepare, but he who is rooted here can make the necessary foreshadowing in advance.

As a foreign businessman, Xia Feng used his personal name to purchase 100-year land use rights along the south coast from the Victorian Land Bureau for a total price of 1000 million tera coins.

At the same time, the Black Feather Sandworm Breeding Base was also registered as a foreign company located in the Victorian colony, and the entire procedure did not encounter any obstacles.

His identity is the governor of Yandong, but there is no rule that the governor cannot do business, and the same is true for the Victorian Empire.

Victoria will not allow foreign officials to participate in the governance of the country. However, the empire has no reason to refuse others to do business on its own territory. Regular foreign companies have to pay taxes. If you have money, everyone can make money together.

At the same time, it can also drive economic development and help post-colonial citizens get jobs.

Now the King of Victoria is his girlfriend. Although it cannot be made public, there is no such thing as a small procedural matter that cannot be done if the King speaks.

The 1000 million yuan was directly transferred and paid by Nancy in China, and the land use rights on the south coast were obtained together with various licenses.

The formalities are complete, and now his sandworm farm is a legitimate, private property protected by Victorian law.

Victoria's colonial affairs need to be prepared slowly. He only needs to arrange his own affairs first. In order to fulfill the responsibility of the governor, he also specially solicited the original residents who were divided into the colony.

The villagers of Nanye Village naturally have no objection, no matter who is in charge, they only look for Xia Feng.

This time, we mainly solicit opinions from villagers in Nanwan Town and other surrounding villages.

This day was calm.

Xia Feng set off in the morning and visited one remote village after another with Lang Da and others.

Every time he came to a village, he called the village head to gather all the villagers.

The entrance of a certain village.

Finding a small bench at random, Xia Feng said kindly to these simple villagers.

"Folks, although our southern coast is remote, everyone should be familiar with the recent changes in the Eastern Kingdom. Let me introduce myself. My name is Xia Feng. I am currently the Governor of Yandong in charge of the entire region. Don't be nervous. This time I’m mainly here to discuss one thing with you.”

As soon as the words fell, a young man in a turban in the crowd pointed with his finger.

"Hey, I remember you. Didn't you sell sandworms in the town before? The roasted ones are delicious, and if you are very stingy, just give us a little bit. How do you become the governor now?"

Without blushing, Xia Feng calmly took out his Governor's token.

"Hey, the one you mentioned is indeed me, but if you go to a higher place, I am indeed the governor now. This is my governor's token."

These simple villagers didn't have any doubts. When they saw the token, they immediately believed it.

"Oh, so that's the case, Mr. Governor."

Xia Feng sat upright.

"Well, I'm here today to discuss a big matter with you."

The title of governor is very unfamiliar to these villagers, but now that the Dongguo is gone, and even the Nishinomiya family has been deprived of the right to rule, it can be seen that the governor is more powerful than the head of the family.

Hearing his words, the older villagers in the village responded timidly.

"Governor Xia, what do you want to discuss with us? Our village is very poor, and we can only be self-sufficient at most. We really don't have any extra food to hand over."

Xia Feng smiled and explained.

"Grandpa, you misunderstood. From now on, no matter whether it is the colony under the jurisdiction of Victoria or the Yandong Special Zone under my jurisdiction, the people will no longer need to hand in food."

The villagers were secretly relieved to hear that they were not here to collect food.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased a lot, Xia Feng continued.

"Folks, it's like this. Now the land on the south coast has been assigned to Victoria. I'm here this time mainly to ask for your opinions. Do you want to stay here and become a Victorian citizen, or do you want to move to Yantai?" Dong, and become a citizen of Yandong, which belongs to Yan Kingdom."

This question is obviously a bit complicated for these villagers who don't know much about the outside world at all, Xia Feng explained in detail.

"If you don't want to become a Victorian citizen, I can send someone to help you find a new residence in the Yandong jurisdiction. At that time, you need to move out of here and resettle in the Yandong jurisdiction."

As soon as they heard that they were going to move, these villagers who had lived near the south coast for generations immediately quit.

"Governor Xia, don't drive us away, we have old and young in the whole village, we can't survive without here."

Xia Feng repeatedly comforted her.

"Don't worry about this. I'm sure I can live on. It just takes some time to adapt to the new environment. I'm here this time to ask for opinions and ask everyone if they want to move."

This time, the opinions of the villagers were very unanimous.

"If you don't move, you won't move even if you kill yourself!"

"Yes, we are determined not to move!"

The village head even took the lead in expressing his opinion.

"Governor Xia, our village has lived here for generations, and our ancestors are buried here. We don't understand other things, but this family can't be easily moved. If you die, you will die here."

Faced with unanimous opinions, Xia Feng nodded.

"Okay, then I understand."

Standing up from the small bench, he solemnly said to the villagers.

"In this case, I will communicate with Victoria later to include everyone as a Victorian citizen. The previous decision of the empire was to gradually build a modern city around the village. At that time, everyone will be assigned a new house."

The villagers obviously didn't understand.

"A new house? But we have no money."

"Don't worry, you don't need money, it's exchanged with the house you own."

"oh oh."

20 minute later.

General Wolf has registered the names of all the villagers.

"Brother Feng, it's done."

On the other side, Lang Mie held a brush and completed the work according to Xia Feng's request.

"Brother Feng, can you read what I wrote?"

Xia Feng glanced at the big red letter written on the house.

"Row."

At this moment, these simple original residents didn't understand at all. In fact, under the guidance of Xia Feng, they made an important decision that could be called affecting future generations.

Just how important it is can be described in one word.

That is a large character that Lang Da painted with red paint on the crooked houses of the villagers, [Demolition]

No matter how handsome you are and how superb your craftsmanship is, after Victoria vigorously developed this colony, you can’t match the word “demolition” printed on the house of your hometown.

In the several villages visited afterwards, the villagers' demands were basically the same, and they all upheld the attitude of never moving away.

Similarly, Lang Mie also marked their house with the word "Demolish".

Xia Feng is now the governor of Yandong, and he will be fully responsible for the subsequent handover with Victoria.

With the relationship between him and Wei Na, opening the door is a matter between the two countries, but closing the door is a matter of one's own family.

Therefore, he is still in charge of the resettlement of the original residents.

This south coast is the place where he started his family, and it is considered a treasure land of geomantic omen for him. If he was not the first to come into contact with Nanye Village, but other villages, he must have been taken care of.

So far, within his ability, he will definitely help these villagers regardless of return.

Let them get a stable home at the beginning of the turmoil.

I can't guarantee the wealth of the family, but from now on, their descendants will be the real second generation.
