Chapter 268

Well meaning laughter echoed in the streets of Qingzhou.

looked at the look of the old man's surprise. Xiao Ming said, "old man, this is true. If you don't believe it, you can go to the government office to ask about this matter. In the future, if you obey the laws and rules in Qingzhou and earn your living honestly, you can get Qingzhou's household registration in two years."

"Thank you, thank you." The old man was excited when he heard the speech. He thought that he would die this time, but he didn't expect to get the chance again. He couldn't help but be glad that he had made the choice.

The newsboy then said, "Your Highness is the king of Qi in front of you. His words can't be wrong."

"His Royal Highness the king of Qi?" The old man was shocked. When he came back, he saw that the young man had gone away on horseback.

Slowly stood up, the old man heart excited, he will be three Wen money to the newsboy, said: "I bought this newspaper."

"Oh, no money!" said the newsboy, but the old man left without looking back.

This time, he went straight to the Yamen and asked about the refugees. After that, the official of the Yamen told him about the refugees policy of Qingzhou. Moreover, in the yamen, he also met many refugees from other places.

The purpose of these refugees here, like him, is to ask how they can be resettled.

"the exhibition of the exhibition just now said that it would be possible to join construction battalions, transport camps and go to the mines, but these places are very short of people now, and if there are special skills, they will be able to get Qingzhou's household registration in a year."

Outside the yamen, several refugees were discussing, and the old man joined in.

"The construction camp, the transportation camp and the mines are coolies, but they can also go to the workshops of other merchants. It's a pity that the workshops of the king of Qi didn't accept refugees." Said one.

"Why?" Asked the old man.

"I'm afraid there will be spies among us refugees. The workshops of the king of Qi are all secrets of Qingzhou. It's said that slaves are used. Only some unimportant workshops will recruit people, such as the textile workshop. When I go back, I'm going to let my wife go. One or two silver a month is enough to live in Qingzhou."

"Yes, yes." Other refugees echoed.

"But you don't have to be nervous. There's a lot of work in Qingzhou. As long as I'm willing to bear hardships and have enough food, it's OK. I went to the wharf to carry my bags, and I got 500 Wen a month."

“……”

It seems that the refugees are full of yearning for life in Qingzhou. The most important thing is that there are no disorderly exorbitant taxes and levies in Qingzhou, and there are no tyrants bullying the people.

It's very free to live here.

The more the old man listened, the more happy he was. With so many advantages in Qingzhou, he was in a paradise. He bent down and went out of the city humming a tune with a newspaper.

Although he was hungry, just now he got the refugee card. With this refugee card, he could get two or two meters a day, and three people could get six or two meters. He had to go back and ask his son and daughter to get the refugee card.

Speaking of this, the old man walked out of the city with ease. There was a temporary hut in the woods outside the city. The hut was very simple, that is, four sticks supported some thatch.

In the thatched cottage was a black ragged quilt, and a young girl was making a fire outside the thatched cottage.

Seeing the old man back, some thin girls asked, "Dad, did you buy rice back?"

The old man's face turned red. He hesitated for a moment. Instead of answering the girl's question, he asked, "where's your brother?"

"My brother went fishing in the river." Seeing that her father's face was abnormal, the girl asked, "Dad, is something wrong?"

At this time, she suddenly saw the things in the old man's hand and asked, "Dad, what's in your hand?"

"Newspapers." The old man felt guilty and regretted that he had just spent the remaining three Wen on impulse.

They were just talking when a young man's voice came, "Dad, you've come back. Hey, look, I caught a big fish and cooked a few bowls of porridge. I won't be hungry today."

Say, youth bright bright hand grass carp, at least three Jin weight.

Seeing the fish, the old man was surprised and said, "dad didn't buy rice this time. Instead, he bought a Qingzhou newspaper and got a temporary residence permit for refugees."

"Newspaper, what is this?" Two people doubt a way.

At this time, the old man told us what happened in the city, and the young man said, "really, when you meet your Royal Highness the king of Qi, he also said that he would forgive us and let us settle down in Qingzhou?"

The old man was smiling and nodded. "But your highness said that your murder had to be verified by the government before a conclusion could be reached. "

at this time, the girl said to her brother," brother, we all say Qi and Wang Renyi. It seems that it's right for us to come to Qingzhou this time. Now we can go to the city in a big way, and we don't need to worry about being hunted any more. "

The young man nodded his head and looked excited. Then he took the old man's newspaper and read it. He said, "sister, the recruitment of female workers is still true. There is a textile workshop on it. However, to enter the textile workshop, you have to go through competition and selection."The old man confidently said, "your sister is famous for her weaving and sewing skills in the village. We are not afraid to compete. Let's go. It's not too late. You go to apply for a temporary residence permit for refugees. At the same time, you take your sister to the textile workshop to see if you can go in. If you go in, our family will be settled in Qingzhou."

The young man nodded and took the girl to Qingzhou City.

……

At the military workshop, Xiao Ming is checking the artillery to be sent to Chang'an.

In Cangzhou these days, the military workshop has been busy, in addition to the production of artillery for the fiefdom, but also in the production of export-oriented artillery.

In order to make the military workshop more hidden, Xiao Ming specially set it in the Camel Hill outside Qingzhou City.

There is only one way from Qingzhou City to Tuoshan, and there are few people in Tuoshan, so it is more and more difficult for military workshops to be spied.

Because often people who enter the mountain will be found by the guards of the protective military workshop and expelled immediately.

"Your Highness, all these 100 guns are here. According to your Highness's instructions, in order to reduce the range, the barrel of the gun is shorter. Generally speaking, it's good that the range can be half of ours."

The military workshop is located in a valley in the mountains. There is only one road leading to the outside world. Outside the military workshop is a large yard where artillery can be tested.

Xiao Ming nodded. In addition to shortening the barrel length of the gun, the powder he sent this time was also traditional black powder, not his granular powder.

In this way, it is enough to ensure its superiority in military weapons.

One hundred guns lined up in the yard of the military workshop was still very shocking. He said, "well, it's very good. Now pull out one gun and test it. Let's see how the performance is?"
