Chapter 815 Frontier
Chen Mu has been watching the registration work of the people who have landed. In the next few days, there may be civilian ships arriving every day. He must find out what is wrong with his preparation as soon as possible. Only when he finds out early can he solve it early. It is the first time for anyone to make mistakes, and there is no guarantee. Not wrong.

It didn't take long for him to find that the people from the first household registered at the No. [-] registration point took the token and walked slowly towards the Tianzi waiting area, which made him frown.

The waiting area is divided into four areas: Tiandi, Xuanhuang, and Huang. Among them, the land and the Xuan are divided into four areas. There is no special standard for the four waiting areas. It all depends on the clerk's heart. Go to the Tianzi waiting area, and then descend in turn.

If the registrar thinks that this person is useless and just a leader, they will throw it into the yellow letter waiting area.

There is a world of difference between Tianzi and Huangzi, but the same thing is that they have to wait for the officials of the military government to claim them. The people in the Tianzi area are waiting for the special distribution of the military government, and the people in the Huangzi area are waiting for the next arrangement of the military government.

For example, the first person to be put into the waiting area with yellow characters was a loafer who had no job, ruined all his ancestors' property, slept on the Qinhuai River for three days and three nights, and still lingered when he had no money, and he was still hungover. The inspector who was thrown by Huanchang to the inspection department just happened to be calling for homeless people to enter Asia, so the inspection department simply put him on board, and when he sobered up, the ship was approaching Xuzhou.

Who wouldn't get a headache seeing such a useless person?

But after all, there are only a few people like that. Most of the people who have traveled across the ocean to start a new life have a reason to come here. There are families who come here, and there are even families who come here to support the old and the young. Although the elderly and children are not labor force , but Chen Mu cares more about such a family.

The elderly and children are belonging and hope.

The only downside is that a family with more than ten people like that is always very slow to record information. There are too many people and a family can record for a moment... At this speed, after the registration of a thousand or so households, tomorrow morning Bright.

"Tomorrow, we will open double channels tomorrow."

This was the biggest drawback that Chen Mu found. Besides, their registration was done in an orderly manner, which was even better than the best expected situation.

Chen Mu stopped looking at the port where the people were registered, and walked towards the port office with a few clerks and personal soldiers, and ordered while walking: "Send someone to the sawmill, step up the production of tokens, and now it depends on the land distribution." gone."

Changsheng County issued a variety of identity tokens, and each token represented the main occupation of the token owner and ten hectares of corresponding land.

In contrast, the four directions of Changsheng County, southeast, northwest, including the coast, were also divided into blocks of wells by the military government, each with a thousand mu, and distributed to the people according to the geographical advantages.

Those with coastlines will be given to those who hold fishing and salt orders; those with mines will be given to those who hold mining orders.

Those who have plains or special farming are distributed to the people who hold farming, animal husbandry, and hunting orders; those with dense forests are distributed to the people who hold forestry and hunting orders.

A vacant land surrounded by eight wells is used as a village, and [-] to [-] households are resettled.

The escorting officer brought Ding Hai's family out of the Tianzi District, along with 32 households from the Dizi District and Xuanzi District, went through the county government warehouse to collect their rations, and continued to the east to find an open space. , Take them to set up a military tent.

"Let's rest here for a few days. Thanks to you, you don't have to rush. Your land is in the east. Let's wait until everyone else has passed."

The officer's two relatives set up a cauldron and arranged for the people of each household to chop firewood and fetch water. The heads of the 32 households were all gathered next to the officer and sat on the ground, waiting for him to arrange future affairs.

"Afterwards, we will cross the White Horse River and arrive at Mexico City where the Western Army is stationed. It is more than five hundred miles away from here, but you don't have to be afraid."

The Baihu officer of the Beiyang Army pointed to the young Qianhu who was mobilizing the banner army in the distance. That Qianhu was none other than Lin Huer, who had not been in office for a long time. Baihu said: "My colleagues and I will lead the army to escort you , led by Lin Qianhu to advance eastward."

"My name is Xu Jin, and I am always victorious in guarding thousands of households and hundreds of households with white horses. You must listen to me along the way. After arriving at your land safely, eight households among you will be allocated [-] mu of land."

Seeing the sluggish faces of many heads of households, Xu Jin curled his lips. He was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and said, "Yes, each of these eight households gets [-] mu."

Ding Hai glanced at his younger brother Ding Lu, frowned in the ecstasy of the crowd, and asked in a low voice: "Master, a thousand acres... can't be finished."

He doesn't know how many tokens other people have per family, but their family has two tokens, and there are words written on them. According to what he said earlier, he can get two thousand acres of land, just the three melons and dates in their family?It's not like others come here with a family, how can they finish planting?
"In the past, there were probably no fields on your land, and you had to cultivate it yourself, let alone others. This land was not just for you to plant. In the past, you first built a private plot that could support yourself, and rented the rest to others."

Xu Jin glanced at Ding Hai, he had a deep impression on this person brought out from Tianzi District, and said: "Your name is Ding Hai, I heard that you used to be a nighter outside the mouth of Ji Town, your family has Two tokens, this group of people will rely on your family in the past."

"Eight pieces of land surround one piece, and your village is in the middle. In the past, no matter what each household does, they must first reclaim [-] mu of land. There is no food to eat."

Xu Jin drew wells on the ground with a thorn, pointed to each piece of land and said: "The taxation court has set a rule that no one can change. No matter what you plant, [-]% of the harvest will go to the landlord."

"The commander-in-chief called you pioneers. When a pioneer rents land, the landlord must rent [-] acres of land per household. However, no matter what the landlord does, the maximum private land can only be [-] acres. The remaining land will be rented sooner or later. go out."

"At the same time, if the landlord and tenants can plant or not use the land given by the emperor, and let the land become barren, the imperial court will transfer it to others. So if you can plant it, you can plant it, and if you can't plant it, you can cut wood, quarry stones, etc. Just hunt, just graze, no matter what, don’t let the land sit idle.”

"Whether it's planting or breeding, or logging or mining, the tax is [-] per cent. If it's not easy to pay in kind directly, someone will compensate you with silver taels or the owner will pay the tax."

"The imperial court will send you some workers. The minimum wage for the workers is two stone noodles a month or the equivalent silver. There will be laws and regulations in the future. Don't worry about this."

"The village on the border has three lieutenants besides a village lieutenant. The village lieutenant is the small banner officer I left behind after the past. He will lead ten banner troops to station; the other three lieutenants are from Jingdi facing east. The three landlords in the village are in charge of building trenches and building fortifications in the village, and practicing Lijia, and the imperial court will give you matchlocks, blunderbuss, spears and other armaments, and keep them properly after registration.”

Xu Jin glanced at the crowd and said, "Take out your tokens and let me calculate how many guns you need, three for the lieutenant, one for the Orion, and one for ten strong men..."
