African Nationhood

Chapter 270 The birth of a marksman (Part )
  "Woo~~"

The whistle blew, and the immigrants staying at the bow of the boat found that a harbor had appeared in front of them, so they waved their hands happily and shouted, "We've arrived at the harbor, we've arrived at the harbor!"

The immigrants who had been staying in the steerage cabin were bored, but when they heard that they had arrived, they all became energetic.

People rushed towards the bow of the ship, and then more immigrants shouted: "We have arrived at the port."

When the seven- or eight-year-old boy wearing a sweatshirt and a collar around his neck heard the shouts of immigrants outside, he stood up with itchiness and wanted to go outside to see the excitement.

But his mother stopped him, "Dachun, what are you going to do?"

"Mom, I want to go outside and have a look. They said they have arrived in Hong Kong."

The mother looked to be in her twenties, and she was holding a small child in her arms. All four members of their family were here.

The mother turned her lips away and whispered: "Don't ask for a beating! Your father just went to sleep, and he woke up and couldn't see you, so he had to beat you again."

Have you forgotten that you almost fell into the sea when you followed others to join in the fun? "

Hearing what his mother said, the little boy was frightened. His father beat people hard, and once he beat him so hard that the stick was broken.

"Mom, I'll come back after a while, okay? Just a moment!"

The mother looked at her son's pitiful appearance and couldn't bear to say anything. Just when she was about to let go, she heard someone beating a gong outside.

While knocking, he shouted: "Immigrants, please pay attention.
  This time we are really somewhere, in Southwest Africa, so hurry up, it will be great to eat when we get down. "

Everyone became energetic when they heard that it was time to eat.

Wandering on the sea these days is a long-lasting sin for those people from Nagada in the Northeast.

Many people cannot sleep at all because of seasickness.

The boy Dachun's father was like this. He couldn't sleep at night, and he couldn't even stand still. He would wake up easily even after finally sleeping for a while.

As soon as the gong struck, the man behind the woman immediately sat up.

When the woman saw that her man was awake, she smiled and said to him: "Master, now you don't have to suffer anymore, it's really the end of the world.

Pack up and let's get off the boat. "

The man said "hmm" and then started to pack his luggage.

The man's name is Zhu San, and his family has been living as hunters in the mountains over the Xing'an Mountains for generations.

When I was a child, I spent several years hunting with my elders in the woods. Later, when I got tired of staying in the old woods, I was led by my fellow villagers to seek a life in Vladivostok.

It was there that Zhu San grew up from a stupid boy to a strong young man. He married his current wife there and the family lived a smooth life.

His wife gave birth to Dachun and two children one after another. Unfortunately, except for Dachun, the two children died in infancy.

This time I finally got pregnant again, but it was difficult to give birth.

During the crisis, I heard someone say that a Chinese trading company in Vladivostok had a female doctor who specialized in delivering babies and was best at solving the problem of difficult labor for pregnant women.

Zhu San was a dead horse and a living doctor, so he went to Nanhua Trading Company to ask for a female doctor. The female doctor followed him to save people without saying a word.

The female doctor helped his wife give birth to the child successfully, but the wife suffered severe postpartum hemorrhage.

The female doctor said that it would cost too much to save people, and asked him if he wanted to save her?
  Zhu San naturally wanted to save her, so the female doctor brought blood transfusion equipment from the trading company to his wife for blood transfusion and rescue. In the end, the mother and son survived safely.

But Zhu San had no way to pay back the huge medical expenses.

The female doctor was also very straightforward: "If you can't afford it, become an immigrant to us, or we will report it to the Russians and have them arrest your whole family."

Only then did Zhu San know that the Chinese trading company was owned by a British company. Zhu San and his family had no choice but to agree to become immigrants.

The family was first transported to Lushun for concentration, and then foreigners arranged for them to board a ship, and then they were transported to Lanfang Company in Borneo.

After arriving at Lanfang Company, they began to undergo the purification process there.

This includes shaving their heads, changing their clothes, and learning hygiene education. Anyone who cannot memorize the hygiene knowledge taught by the teacher will not be given food.

In addition to learning hygiene knowledge, they were also given smallpox vaccinations.

In addition to these, the children were also given a deworming decoction. A lot of parasites were removed from the children's bodies and their meals tasted better.

After being purified, adults can choose to work as temporary workers in the local area, where they will be paid on a daily basis and have enough to eat after each day's work.

Such days are indeed very good for those of them who live on the poverty line all day long. After they were notified again to board the ship, they were wandered around for several days and sent to an island.

It was much easier on that island. You could fish and bathe, but there was nothing else you could do.

But they didn't stay on the island for long before they boarded the ship again. This time they got there in only a few days.

……

"Master, what do you want to do when you get here?"

Zhu San replied dully: "You can do whatever you want to make money. I heard that being a soldier will make you money quickly, and you can also divide the land.

At that time, we owed old money because of you two. It was easy for us to get off the ship and work as soldiers to earn money and pay off the debt.

I heard that people in Southwest Africa are living a good life. I will work hard to help you mothers live a good life as soon as possible. "

After listening to the man's words, the woman smiled on her face and felt sweet in her heart.

"Well, boss, do your job well.

Save some land for us in the spring, so we won’t have to worry about finding a wife in the future. "

Zhu San hummed, put away his luggage, bundled it into a small bundle, and threw it on his back.

The large cotton-padded jackets they had when they came from the Northeast were all thrown away at Lanfang Company, and most of the things they have now are purchased at Lanfang Company.

There was only some food, vaccination certificates, and clothes and underwear for each person.

Then he looked around and found nothing missing. He stretched out his hand to hold his son and warned: "Don't run when you get off the boat, let alone be in a hurry.

If you get lost, I won't look for you.

Let the traffickers sell you, and your mother and I will enjoy the happiness at home with my brother, you know? "

Dachun was frightened by his father's words and nodded quickly, "Yeah, I understand."

After leaving the steerage room, they found that everyone had lined up in a long queue. The family found the end of the queue and followed them.

During the immigration process, they were used to waiting in line.

If you don't line up, you will not only get criticized, but you will also go hungry. This is a painful lesson.

……

The team disembarking from the boat went very quickly, and by the time the family arrived, it was already getting dark.

Zhu San smiled and handed his registration card to the receptionist at the registration office. The receptionist saw that their family was big or small, so he smiled and said, "Welcome to your family to Southwest Africa. What is your name?"

Zhu San also laughed: "The younger one's name is Zhu San."

The receptionist waved his hand and said, "We in Southwest Africa, 'everyone is equal', should not imitate the Qing Dynasty. From now on, we are not allowed to call ourselves 'little'. Your name is Zhu San, the 'three' of one, three, three, four?"

Zhu San continued to smile and said: "Yes, I am doing it at home."

The receptionist smiled when he heard this, "Why don't I change it for you and call it Zhu Shan, Shan He San, it's similar, but at least it sounds like a name. What do you think?"

How could Zhu San dare to refute? It should be the rule that wealthy families have to change their names when they hire servants or long-term workers.

"Well, okay, it's up to you."

The receptionist snorted and filled in the name column on the registration card: Zhu Shan.

"What have you done before, and do you have any expertise?"

Zhu Shan immediately replied: "I used to be a hunter and can shoot. Can I be a soldier? I want to be a soldier."

The receptionist became interested upon hearing this and said, "Orion, you have a good relationship. You should be able to become a soldier. As long as you are culturally qualified, you can definitely become a soldier."

Zhu Shan was even more happy when he heard it. It was so easy to become a soldier. He thought he would have to work hard to find someone.

His wife also became happy after hearing the conversation between the two. Now she was better, and their life was moving forward.
