Chapter 461 Migrating fugitives

Tieshan laughed when he heard this and said, "Where are you two wanting to go? What I mean is that if Shi Tou didn't come back a year ago, our whole family might have moved away after that year, and it probably won't come back again. If you want to marry Chinese to Shi Tou again, it will be much trouble!"

"Moving?" Shitou and his son were both surprised. Among them, Shitou asked hurriedly, "Didn't Nanshan Village live well? Why did you think of moving?"

Tieshan knew that Shi Tou Dad would ask this question, but he smiled bitterly and said, "Dad Shi Tou Dad, you also know the situation in my family. There are many children in the family. In addition to two adult sons and Chinese Toon, there are three sons and a young daughter. There are only seven children in total. In the past, in order to fill these seven mouths, I fought hard to hunt and grow tea. I finally waited until my two sons became adults. I thought it would be easier, but I didn't expect that I broke my leg again. Now it has become a drag on the family."

When he said this, Tieshan sighed again and said, "The eldest brother became a relative again two years ago because he was afraid of adding more burden to the family. The two of them never dared to have children. The second brother was about to be twenty, but he didn't even talk about marriage. In addition, the few young people were getting older and older. You said that they were half a child, and they were poor, and the food in the family was not enough. If this continued, our whole family would starve to death!"

When Shitou and his son heard Tieshan's undisguised words, their faces showed heavy expressions. In fact, their lives of fleeing people are similar. Most of them are struggling on the line of life and death. If you are not careful, the whole family may fall into trouble, such as the Tie family in front of you. It is because they are missing a main labor force and can never survive again.

"Brother Tie. Although life here is a bit harder, can you support the whole family by changing places?" Shi Tou's father thought about it. "I don't think so. The acres of land in my family can produce some food. In addition, Shi Tou also works outside and earns a lot of wages, so the family is still well-off. In addition, Shi Tou and Chinese Tou are about to get married again, so I think so, so I just marry Chinese Tou's sister Er Yatou to our family and be a child bride for my second son. When they get older, they can get the house together, so that your family can eat less and reduce the burden!"

Shi Tou's father's mind was very fast. His method not only made the Tie family less open, but also found a future wife for his second son. It was a killing two birds with one stone. Of course, in fact, in fact, the Shi Tou family was still at a disadvantage. After all, it took several years to raise a little girl. The cost of these years was definitely more than the cost of marrying Chinese toon this time.

However, Tieshan considered Shi Tou Dad's kindness and refused, "Shi Tou Dad, I know you have good intentions too. But even if you lack Chinese toon and Erya at home, your life will still be hard. Maybe one day you will be forced to the dead end. So I think I'd better go and try moving to Taiwan!"

"Taiwan? Tie Bo, are you going to move to Taiwan?" As soon as Tie Shan finished speaking, Shi Tou immediately asked in shock. He and Xiang Toon had not officially married, so he still called Tie Bo.

At this time, Tieshan suddenly remembered that he, his prospective son-in-law, had been outside for more than half a year, and his knowledge must be much better than him. So you can ask him about his moving house.

Thinking of this, Tieshan also said excitedly: "Look, I'm so confused that I've forgotten that Shi Tou is very knowledgeable. Please help me figure it out and see if this move to Taiwan is reliable?"

Tieshan said, and then told him why he moved to Taiwan.

It turned out that half a month ago, a group of officials riding tall horses came to their Nanshan Village. They claimed to be subordinates of His Highness King Qi. The reason why they came to Jianzhou this time was mainly to move the population to a large island overseas. The name of the island was Taiwan. According to these people's description, the Taiwan island was larger than the entire Jianzhou area. It was not originally a territory of the Tang Dynasty, but it was occupied by His Highness King Qi. It was just that there was a sparse population there, so it came to migrate some of the population.

In addition, those people also said that His Highness King Qi did not care whether the person who moved was a fugitive. As long as he arrived in Taiwan, he would immediately obtain Taiwan's household registration. Every adult could get 100 acres of land, and it was not limited to men and women. In addition, what was most touching was that Taiwan would not collect any tax on agriculture, that is, as long as it was bought in the fields, it would all belong to you.

At the beginning, Tieshan and the others suspected that these people were liars, and they just wanted to trick them into being slaves in the name of immigration. After all, no one would believe that there were such generous immigration conditions in this world?

However, Tieshan and the others were quickly dispelled because the other party not only had immigration notices stamped by the Jianzhou governor and the local county magistrate, but also paid settlement fees to those who were willing to immigrate. For example, if one of the family was willing to immigrate, the family could get a ten-month deposit fee. If the family left too much, they could also apply for more settlement fees, but these extra settlement fees would have to be paid.

Although the fugitives are afraid of the people from the government, the government still has a very strong position in their hearts. In addition, they are willing to give money first, which makes them believe it even more. Therefore, many people are very moved. Cautious families plan to send someone to see first. If the promised conditions can be realized, then the whole family will move over. When a family like Tieshan who is almost unable to pass and who has courage plan to move over. After all, if they really follow the other party's words, as long as they arrive in Taiwan, they will get hundreds of acres of land, and they will no longer have to worry about food and drink.

Originally, the Tieshan family had decided to move to Taiwan, and they planned to move after this year. If Shi Tou did not come back, then the Chinese toon would also come to Taiwan, and their marriage would be troublesome.

Shi Tou was also a little scared after hearing this. Fortunately, he came back before the New Year. Otherwise, if the Chinese Toon family moved to Taiwan, he would not be able to find Chinese Toon by then, and this marriage would be a waste. Speaking of which, Chinese Toon is a good girl, Shi Tou doesn’t want to miss this good marriage.

"Shitou, you are very knowledgeable. Have you heard of that Taiwan? Is it as evil as they said?" Finally, Tieshan looked at Shitou with anticipation and asked. Although he felt that those people should not be lying, he always felt unsure.

After hearing this, Shi Tou put the wine bowl on the table with excitement. The wine splashed in the bowl so high, then he said, "Brother Tie, we must move this time, and not only your family moves, but our family also moves. Taiwan is a good place. I have been working outside for more than half a year, and the one I hear the most is this Taiwan!"

When Shi Tou said this, Tieshan and Shi Tou's father were very surprised, especially Tieshan. He originally asked his son-in-law about his hope, but he did not expect that Shi Tou not only agreed, but also made a decision without authorization and wanted to move to Taiwan with them.

"Shitou, where is that Taiwan? How can you just move it?" Shitou's father said angrily. The Tieshan family was forced to move, so he wanted to move the whole family, but his family was still well-off, so there was no need to take this risk.

Shi Tou naturally understood his father's idea and immediately explained: "Dad, you don't understand the situation. Taiwan is opposite Fuzhou, not too far from our Jianzhou. Moreover, it is the territory of His Royal Highness Qi. It is developing very fast now. Most of the tea produced in Jianzhou is sent to Taiwan through Fuzhou."

Shi Tou said this, his face showed an ecstatic expression again and said, "When I was working in that tea factory, I had the opportunity to meet a shopkeeper who came to tea from Taiwan. From him, I learned a lot about Taiwan's situation. It was indeed vast and sparsely populated, and large areas of land were deserted. The most were plantations of large and small. The plantations were planted with rice, sugarcane and the like. The most important thing was that I did hear the businessman say that Taiwan had introduced population from the Tang Dynasty for many years, and the conditions were very generous. I thought about going to Taiwan at the beginning. Unfortunately, we did not have a household registration and could not leave Jianzhou at all. I didn't expect them to come to us to introduce population!"

At the end of the story, Shi Tou was so excited that his whole body was trembling. As long as he arrived in Taiwan, household registration would no longer be a problem, and there would be a large area of ​​land for him. With these, all the restrictions on him would disappear. Then it was time for him to show his strength!

After listening to Shi Tou's words, Tieshan and Shi Tou's father looked at his excited look and no longer doubted it. At the same time, when they thought of such generous conditions proposed by Taiwan, they all felt their chests were warm, and they were so happy that they wanted to scream. It seemed that only in this way could they vent their excitement in their hearts.

Shitou and his son did not expect that the two happy days were coming today. Not only did they set their wedding date with Chinese toon, but they also learned the good news. At that time, the three men were very excited and drank endlessly. In the end, they not only drank all the rice wine from the Tieshan family, but also drank all the jar of strong wine brought by Shitou.

Among the escaped people in Jianzhou, there are many cases like the Shitou family and the Tie family. They have made up their minds to go to Taiwan to try their luck for various reasons. After all, this matter is guaranteed by the government, and it is also the territory of His Highness the King of Qi. They are willing to take this risk because of the reputation of this wise king of the Tang Dynasty.
