Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1775, Busy Immigration Agency

In the immigration office of Shangyun Town, Heitu Province, Deng Shan from the seventh grade just passed the exam last year, because the imperial court is currently short of officials, especially in Heitu Province, which is a newly incorporated place of the Ming Dynasty, and needs a large number of officials.

The current chief assistant of the cabinet, Liu Jin and Liu Gong, has introduced a policy that as long as they are willing to go to the Black Earth Province to become an official, as long as they do not commit corruption, do not eat a vegetarian meal, and make a difference, they will be promoted first.

To put it simply, if you come here to be an official, as long as you work hard for a few years, it is not a problem to be promoted to a higher level in three years, and it is not a problem to go up to a higher level in five years.

Moreover, being an official in Heitu Province is not restricted by some traditions of the Ming Dynasty, such as the tradition that non-jinshi cannot enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin cannot enter the cabinet.

That is to say, even if you are from a Juren background, as long as you work here for a few years, you can still be promoted to a county magistrate of the seventh rank, and after a few more years of work, you have every chance to become a state-level official.

If you are an official at the state level, you can be directly promoted to the Imperial Academy for further study. As for the location of the Imperial Academy, everyone knows very well that it is the reserve pool for senior officials of the Ming Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, the current cabinet ministers, the ministers of the six ministers, the major officials of the frontiers, etc., all came from the Imperial Academy. Even if they didn’t, they would have to go to the Imperial Academy to study for two or three years.

Such preferential policies also immediately attracted a large number of officials and recruits to respond to the imperial policy, and traveled thousands of miles to come to the Black Earth Province to serve as officials.

Deng Shan is one of them. Although he is still an official of the seventh rank, he is an official of the Immigration Department of this small Shangyun Town, but after working here for a few years, he can be automatically promoted to a county magistrate of the seventh rank. After working for a few years, you can become an official at the state level.

This speed is still quite good.

Such a policy is somewhat similar to the directional policy of later generations. It is a policy specially established to support the development of the western region and other regions. The purpose is to motivate more young people and officials to support the frontier areas.

This policy has also been implemented for many years, and it did not start in the Black Earth Province. It has been implemented in Nanyun Province, Hezhong Province, Central Asia Province and Northwest Province, Golden Island, Australia, Nanyang and other places.

It also achieved very good results.

On the Nanyang provinces, because the imperial court insisted on using officials to govern these places, it dealt a huge blow to some local local tycoons in Nanyang Province, such as Jiaozhi Province, which used to be the territory of the Houli Dynasty, where the population was large and refused to accept the king Teach, the local powerful family is very powerful.

Even during the Houli Dynasty, the rulers of the Houli Dynasty had to give comfort and a large number of titles and official positions to these local powerful families.

But Daming was not used to them. When Liu Jin led the army south to sweep Nanyang, he focused on targeting these powerful families, attacking and killing them wantonly, and dealt a heavy blow to these local powerful families.

Then there will be a large number of immigration replacements, moving a large number of immigrants to these places, and at the same time encouraging the rich and powerful in Ming Dynasty to develop the plantation economy in these places.

Combining the policy of comprehensive Ming Dynastyization and Sinicization, the five-level household registration policy and the appointment of officials to govern these places, dispatching garrisons to guard them, etc.

In just over ten years, these places have already forgotten everything about themselves, and have become the most loyal subjects of the Emperor of Heaven, and the local powerful families have gradually disappeared.

In addition to the Nanyang provinces, very good results have been achieved in Nanyun Province.

Originally, Nanyun Province had nothing to do with Daming. It was the land that Ming lost and ceded from the Ottoman Empire. The natives here were Georgians and Caucasians.

However, after a series of Ming Dynasty's ruling policies of combining rigidity and softness, this place has become one of the fastest-growing places in Ming Dynasty, and it is also one of the places with the strongest rule.

The aborigines here are even more loyal than the local Han people in Ming Dynasty, and they are even more proud of being Ming people than the Han people.

Because they have been bullied for thousands of years, only now do they experience the dignity and prosperity of citizens of a powerful empire. Under the notice of the Ming Empire, they no longer have to worry about being robbed and bullied, and they don't have to worry about starving What, live a life of peace and abundance.

In Ha Tram and Central Asia provinces, the officials of the Migration Agency are the most important officials in charge of resettlement, arrangement and resettlement duties.

All of the above have been done very well, allowing a large number of immigrants to settle down quickly after arriving in these two places, and quickly adapt to the local area and find a suitable path for development and prosperity.

Of course, the imperial court has also fulfilled its promise. Officials in these places are promoted much faster than other places, and even if they are driven out of performance, they will be promoted even faster.

"Master Deng, these are some seeds newly transported by the court, and we need to guide the immigrants to plant them on time according to the season."

Deng Shan is very busy. As an immigration official, the first two years when immigrants first arrived here were the busiest.

Before the immigrants came, they were responsible for supervising the construction of immigrant towns, immigrant houses, preparing food, utensils, living materials, etc. for the immigrants, and even preparing quilts, clothes, firewood, etc. for the immigrants to spend the winter.

The imperial court has always attached great importance to immigrants.

In the past, Li Dongyang and Li Gong were in charge of the immigration affairs. Later, when Li Dong was in poor health, Liu Jin was in charge. Then the responsible officials are finished.

Prince Wang Shouren is now in charge of the immigration affairs. Compared with Liu Jinna, Wang Shouren's work is very meticulous. The imperial court directly set up an immigration bureau in Heitu Province, dispatched officials to coordinate the immigration affairs of Heitu Province, and supervised all departments. High-level officials to do immigration affairs.

For the current Black Soil Province, the most important thing is to settle the immigrants who have traveled thousands of miles here, so that they can have food and shelter here, and at the same time, they can gradually resume production and farming, and gradually adapt to the life and climate here.

Although the most important season for sowing wheat has passed, other crops can still be sown. The land here is fertile, rich in water resources, and the land is open and flat, so there are many crops that can be planted.

The Immigration Bureau also cooperates with the Ministry of Agriculture to jointly formulate and guide immigrants' farming here, when to plant what crops, and how to plant them. These are all detailed guidance.

For example, the large pasture economy in Central Asia Province is a farming and animal husbandry economy suitable for the Han people, a fixed pasture economy, grass planting plus the use of machinery, the use of silage and so on. , so that Central Asia Province has developed a unique agricultural and animal husbandry economy, and quickly became one of the most important meat warehouses in Ming Dynasty.

This time, the Immigration Bureau of Black Soil Province also promoted and appointed a large number of officials from Central Asia Province. They have extremely rich experience in this area and know how to formulate corresponding agricultural and animal husbandry policies according to time and place to quickly stabilize immigrants. Develop the economy of the colony.

Here in Black Soil Province, the land is open, flat, and very fertile. The most suitable place for development is agriculture, which is similar to that of Hezhong Province, which is suitable for the development of an agricultural economy with mechanized farming.

Correspondingly, it is also necessary to select suitable crops according to the climate and natural conditions here, and at the same time formulate a suitable cultivation time, and guide the immigrants to tell them how to plant these crops or use agricultural machinery uniformly.

This is the main job of the Immigration Bureau of the Black Earth Province. The power in their hands is even greater than that of the Chief Envoy of the Black Earth Province. Only when the immigrants gradually settle down and the Ming people gain a firm foothold in these places, The Immigration Bureau will be gradually abolished, and at the same time, power will be gradually transferred to the chief envoy and state and county officials.

Of course, it is precisely because of the establishment of the Immigration Bureau and the Immigration Department to better serve the immigrants and ensure the life and production of the immigrants that the immigration policy that Ming has always adhered to can continue to be persisted.

A large number of immigrants moved smoothly to the new land under the organization of the government, and quickly took root here, and quickly became rich.

This also attracted more people to immigrate to the outside of the customs and overseas, so that the imperial court's immigration policy could be carried out smoothly. The power and sentiment of resistance became weaker and weaker, and even a large number of spontaneous emigration appeared.

It can be said that the Immigration Department and the current local officials have done more and better things than the officials and the Ministry of Agriculture of later generations. In terms of agricultural production, later generations have no guidance at all, and it can even be said that Seriously separated from farmers and agriculture, many agricultural-related policies have not fully considered farmers.

But the current Ming Dynasty is different. It attaches great importance to immigration and agriculture.

Not only vigorously develop agricultural machinery, develop agricultural and animal husbandry production, but also constantly select and cultivate excellent varieties, explore new farming methods and so on.

This greatly stimulated the development of Daming's agriculture, and also enabled the implementation of Daming's immigration policy, which made a qualitative leap in Daming's agriculture.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Ming Dynasty to have the current prosperous age. The grain output of the Ming Dynasty is enough for the people of the Ming Dynasty to eat for ten years, and the output of meat such as cattle, sheep, horses, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, etc. of the Ming Dynasty is also rising year after year. The output is getting bigger and bigger, and the proportion of people's meat and milk is getting higher and higher.

These can be said to be the credit of the Daming Immigration Bureau and the Ministry of Agriculture. This is what Liu Jin has been focusing on all the time. It has ensured the stability of agriculture. Daming's grain production is high enough, and Daming people have food and drink, so everything else more stable.
