    Huanxian County is mountainous and numerous.

    So traveling here is more troublesome.

    Jiao Quren sometimes rode a donkey and sometimes walked. After more than an hour, he arrived at Xu Yuan.

    Xu Yuan is on a mountain. Looking down from the mountain, you can see the fields that have been created. However, in recent years, there has been less water, and even planting potatoes is difficult.

    When we reached the slope, rows of cave dwellings were built against the mountain. In front of the cave dwellings, there were some old people, women and children sitting, basking in the sun

    Seeing Jiao Churen, an old man stood up and came over, cupping his hands and saying, "I am a stranger to you, may I ask what you are doing in Xu Yuan?"

    Jiao Churen cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I am a new official from the county. My name is Jiao Churen. The old man looks strong!"

    This is a polite way of saying something.

    After the two parties checked their identities, the old man asked Jiao Churen to sit down in the field with some restraint, then took off his shoes and threw them out, hitting a half-grown child on the head.

    "Sanba, go get some water."

    The child picked up the shoes and brought them here. Jiao Qiren said, "I have a water bag here, so there won't be any trouble."

    The old man¡¯s face tightened, he smiled dryly and stopped talking.

    Jiao Churen was glanced at by everyone from time to time. He coughed dryly and said: "Old man, I came here this time to ask you, are you willing to immigrate?"

    The old man¡¯s eyes wandered and he said naa: ¡°My family is here. I have been used to this place all my life. I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to endure it if I go elsewhere.¡±

    "It's hard to leave the homeland, even if the fox dies on the first hill, these words all prove the Han people's deep attachment to their hometown."

    Those women all looked at the fair-skinned Jiao Churen and snickered. The children were pulled by their mothers and were not allowed to come over. Some were wailing and some were shouting. It was so noisy that it made people have headaches for a while.

    Jiao Tiren said with a smile: "Old man, our Huanxian County is a good place, but in recent years there have been small disasters from time to time. Some people speculate that famines here will become more and more severe and frequent in the future, and I am afraid that there will be continuous disasters.  You don¡¯t even have to eat the bark.¡±

    The old man glanced sideways at Jiao Churen, then lowered his head and said, "Sir, that's a god!"

    In their eyes, those who can predict future events can only be gods.

    Jiao Quren said awkwardly: "This is science. As you are older, you should know that there have been more and more famines in recent years."

    The old man stretched out his rough hands to dig at the ground, and said angrily: "Sir, it will eventually pass!"

    "These people are unwilling to leave their hometown. They would rather live a more difficult life. As long as they can't starve to death, they don't want to go far away.

    Jiao Quren pointed to the children in rags and said, "Look at those children. Nowadays, there are more cloths in the Ming Dynasty, but they still can't afford new clothes? Why is this?"

    The old man rolled his eyes at him secretly and muttered: "Aren't they all poor!"

    "Old man, there are many places for immigrants in Ming Dynasty. Let's talk about Xinghe City outside the Great Wall. It is a new city. You will get land when you go there. If you don't have land, you will be given cattle and sheep. In the first year, you will not be charged for food and accommodation.  And it¡¯s also exempt from taxes for ten years, ten years! How much do you think it will cost?¡±

    Jiao Quren thought of inducements, but the old man turned around and said to him: "Sir, the land at home is going to be plowed."

    Being ordered to be expelled, Jiao Qiren said helplessly: "Someone said this back then: I, a Ming Dynasty native, as long as the ancestral tablets are there and the family members are there, then everything is my hometown."

    He stood up and walked away. The children lost control and ran over to look at the bench where Jiao Tiren was sitting just now. Some of them even touched it cautiously.

    A woman who probably had some status said, "Fifth Uncle, can you believe what this official says? Xu Yuan is the richest person in the area within ten miles. Why does he want to persuade us to immigrate?"

    The old man threw away the dirt in his hands, clapped his hands and said: "What kind of letter do you believe? Is there anyone who can see what will happen a hundred years later? Most of them are just trying to trick people!"

    ¡­¡­

    This was the first time Jiao Churen came into contact with immigration matters. Unprepared, he couldn't find an entry point at all, and he was worried too much, so he could only frown and leave Xu Yuan.

    Back to the county town, the shadow puppet show has ended, and the old man is closing the stall, moving slowly.  Hearing the movement, he turned around and took a look, and the deep wrinkles on his face deepened a bit.

    "The rise and fall are the sufferings of the common people!"

    The shadow puppetry in Huanxian County is not just about playing, but also about telling folk stories.

    There is a lot of suffering among the people, so the bitter part is taken out of the shadow puppet show, or there is a happy reunion at the end or something like that.

    Jiao Quren returned all the way to ?I went to the Yamen and found Fan Ying to report.

    After hearing this, Fan Ying said expressionlessly: "This means that the people are unwilling to immigrate!"

    He didn¡¯t hold him accountable, but these words made Jiao Quren more sad than holding him accountable.  He said: "Master Fan, the people are ignorant and love their families. This matter must be done slowly. I thought that I could travel to the capital and invite a few people from Huan County who have immigrated to various places and lived a good life to come back and speak out with their own example, so  ¡­¡±

    "Are you going to write the article?"

    Fan Ying interrupted Jiao Qiren's words and waved her sleeves: "Go now. From now on, you will go once every ten days. When the official asks about immigration at the end of the year, I will only look for you."

    This is a heavy burden and a loss of responsibility.

    Jiao Churen bowed in response, and then returned to the check-in room.

    In the duty room, the two people were dozing off.

    There weren¡¯t many things going on in Huan County. He was sleepy in spring, autumn, and summer. Jiao Quren was anxious, but he didn¡¯t feel sleepy at all.

    He sat at the table and thought quietly, feeling that he had never encountered such a difficult thing in his life.

    "Hey! You're back? Is everything done?"

    There were three tables in the room, and Jiao Churen came the last, so he could only face the dark wall, the light was not good, and his back was turned to Pan Zhi and Li Xincheng.

    "without."

    Jiao Churen said casually, and then fell into deep thought again.

    Pan Zhi and Li Xincheng smiled at each other, then stood up and went out together.

    "This guy is just stupid."

    After leaving the check-in room, Pan Zhi couldn't help but laugh: "Immigration matters are something that a petty official like him can't get involved in. He didn't know why, but he was tricked into it by Master Fan. Now he's in for a good show."

    Li Xincheng raised his eyebrows and said: "He moved around and visited everywhere as soon as he arrived. He was more active than our Mr. Wang back then. He came here to get promoted. He thought he could hide his thoughts from others, butwho is a fool?  ?¡±

    ¡­¡­

    This is the Ming Dynasty?

    The fleet went all the way north along the coastline, and also resupplied once in Ningbo Prefecture.

    Even though it was just a glimpse, the bustling Ningbo still made the Frankish mission fall into silence.

    As the fleet continued to go north, Bastian found that the food was gradually getting better. Those meals made the people in the mission abandon their reserve and ate like a group of beggars.

    Bastian himself was not much better. A fresh black soy fish made him forget the reality of being under house arrest.

    "This fish smells bad and tastes delicious, but what are those black particles?"

    A follower finished eating the rice, licked his lips, and asked with unfinished thoughts.

    The other one ate more slowly. He clumsily pinched a piece of black black soya bean with his hands. He looked at everyone and said with a silly smile: "Is this the rice that has grown too big? It's like our Frank's bread. Hey! I am now  I just miss white bread, and if Frank had this kind of fish, then I think I could eat the whole family¡¯s bread in one meal.¡±

    "Akito's recipes are really complicated, and many of us have never seen them before. Frank needs to learn from them and make full use of the food."

    Ordinary people just enjoy pleasure from delicious food, but Bastian thinks of state affairs.

    This is the level!  This is also the reason why Bastian can serve as an envoy!

    Bastian ordered: "We must pay more attention to food in the future. Frank is going through hardships. We must find more resources for the kingdom." (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
