After the immigration operation was restarted this time, the specific implementation was not as precise and careful as before.

In the past, we were worried about the spread of the plague to Jinhai Town, so we established the Dengzhou Shuicheng Quarantine Zone, and also established island quarantine zones such as Tuoji Island, Chenghuang Island, and Daqin Island. Before immigrants cross the sea from Dengzhou to go north, especially when they arrive

Before entering the jurisdiction of Jinhai Town in the southern part of the Liaodong Peninsula, people must be quarantined for at least several days.

But this time, all these intermediate quarantine links are eliminated.

After the large fleet arrived at the northern coast of Weihaiwei and Chengshanwei, the refugees who had been gathering here for many days rushed to swarm them.

Tang Ruowang and others, who arrived at these places first for epidemic prevention, and Fang Guangchen, Li Ji and others who followed to collect immigrants, only had time to divide these immigrants into households and villages.

Fortunately, the vast majority of these refugees have been stranded between the mountains and forests on the northern coast of Weihaiwei and Chengshanwei for a long time.

If anyone among them had contracted the disease during their long journey, they would have died long ago before the arrival of this wave of immigrants from Jinhai Town.

Therefore, Fang Guangchen and others were not very worried about whether these refugees carried the plague.

Furthermore, after all, Yingzhou Island is not the mainland of Jinhai Town. It is neither on the Liaodong Peninsula nor near the Liaodong Peninsula.

It is a truly isolated island hanging above the sea, almost isolated from the world. Even if something happens, it will not be a big disaster to Jinhai Town itself.

At the very least, even if something happens, everything is within control.

In the eyes of Fang Guangchen, Li Ji, Yuan Jin, Yu Liangtai and others, when the time comes, the most they will do is die a group of refugees.

For them, the world of the Ming Dynasty has suffered from successive famines for many years, and people are in dire straits. Three-legged toads are hard to find, but aren’t there all kinds of people with two legs everywhere?

Therefore, this time the immigration operation to Yingzhou Island was much simpler and rougher than in the past.

The fleet departed from Lushunkou in the morning and arrived separately at Chengshanwei, Weihai, where the refugees gathered along the coast in the afternoon. Immigrants were then allowed to board the ship. In the morning of the next day, they gathered at Chengshantou and set off.

Yang Zhen, who was in Lushunkou, later learned about these situations. Although he was a little worried, he had nothing to do in the end.

After all, there is a cost to detaining immigrants and keeping them in quarantine. One more day of detention means one more day of food consumption.

Therefore, Weihai Guard Commander Wang Xixian and Chengshan Guard Commander Cui Dingguo, who finally got in touch with Fang Guangchen, Yuan Jin and others, all hoped that the refugees would board the ship and leave the country as soon as possible.

Especially after the fleet from Jinhai Town arrived, they kept urging the fleet to load the refugees and leave as soon as possible, not wanting to see these refugees staying in their jurisdiction for another day.

Faced with this situation, Yang Zhen had no choice but to do anything. Although he was the Zuo Governor of the Jin Haibo Zuo Army Commandant and could be regarded as the nominal superior officer of the Coast Guard in the Dengliao area, for the Weihai Guards and Chengshan Guards, who were members of local general families,

If he doesn't cooperate, he can't do anything to others.

Besides, since the opening of Jinhai Town, including the previous recruitment operations and immigration operations, the families of these generals at the Denglai Coastal Guard Station have given Yang Zhen a lot of face.

Dengzhou Water City is abandoned and idle, but is it something that you, Yang Zhen, can occupy and use as soon as you want?

Including those islands off the coast of Dengzhou, Denglai Town has indeed abandoned its defense after its troops shrunk, but is that the territory of your Jinhai Town? Is it a place that your Jinhai Town can come and use whenever it wants?

For problems like these, Yang Zhen never went to the general families at the Denglai Coastal Guard Station, and these general families turned a blind eye in the end and pretended that nothing happened.

Yang Zhen was still grateful for this.

Therefore, after restarting the immigration operation this time, faced with the lack of cooperation from local health officials such as Wang Xixian and Cui Dingguo, Yang Zhen had no choice but to express his understanding after receiving the news.

After all, if Yang Zhen continues to immigrate to Yingzhou Island and other places in the future, he still needs the understanding and support of the officials of Denggzhou Prefecture and Denglai Coast Guard Station. The relationship between them cannot become tense, let alone break up.

After the immigration operation was restarted in Jinhai Town, the connection between Dengzhou Prefecture and Lushunkou was immediately restored. Yang Zhen also obtained information from letters written by Yuan Shu and Yue Qijie, as well as reports from Fang Guangchen and Li Ji.

More and more news about the Den Lay area.

The plague that suddenly broke out in Dengzhou Prefecture at the end of May had subsided by mid-July due to Yuan Shu's strict implementation of isolation and isolation in various places in Dengzhou Prefecture.

However, the plague is still rampant in places such as the northwest of Laizhou Prefecture, the north of Qingzhou Prefecture, the north of Jinan Prefecture, and up to Beizhili Hejian Prefecture, Zhending Prefecture, and the situation is still not optimistic.

Yuan Shu, the prefect of Dengzhou, who has seen great results from the stupid method of closing the city and isolating the city, has also written to the court and Emperor Chongzhen one after another, requesting that the isolation be implemented in Beizhili, Jinan Prefecture, Qingzhou Prefecture, Laizhou Prefecture and other places.

Blocking method.

As for Laizhou Prefecture, which is connected with Dengzhou Prefecture and suffers both losses, it has already begun to learn the isolation and blocking method from Dengzhou Prefecture without waiting for the imperial court's order.

In the name of epidemic prevention, government officials and powerful households from all over Laizhou Prefecture set up checkpoints and fortifications, blocking all roads going east and checking people coming and going. They also set up a large isolation and quarantine area on both sides of the official road west of Wei County in Laizhou Prefecture.

It specially takes in refugees who go to Denglai to beg for food and survive.

As for Tang Ruowang and his entourage, just after the immigration fleet set off, Yang Zhen ordered them to be transferred to Wei County to assist Laizhou Prefecture in establishing an isolation area for epidemic prevention.

Similarly, in order that the plague in Dengzhou Prefecture would not recur with the arrival of new refugees, and in order that the immigration to Yingzhou Island would not be interrupted by the plague, Yang Zhen ignored Zhang Degui's objections in mid-August.

, ordered a batch of grain to be transported to Laizhou Prefecture, so that Tang Ruowang and others could provide relief to the refugees in the quarantine area.

In the following days, Yang Zhen was in Lushunkou. In addition to going out of the city every now and then to observe the live-fire training of the advance army's artillery regiment, grenadier regiment and artillery regiment, he also stayed in the main town hall in the south city of Lushun all day long to accompany his wife.

with young children.

Yang Zhen's son is still young, less than a hundred days old. Although he has already received worldly positions as rewarded by the imperial court, he was granted the title as the eldest son of Jin Haibo and has not yet been named.

Correspondingly, in order to make him strong and easy to support, Jin Haibo's wife Qiu Bihan first gave him a nickname, Shitou, according to folk customs.

Of course, Yang Zhen accepted his son's nickname with a smile. Just like Qiu Bihan, he called it "little pebbles" all day long.

When Little Shitou was born, Fang Guangchen, who was the head of the town council, found Yang Zhen privately and said that he should pay a lot of money to hire some Confucian scholars, Taoists, great monks, etc. to come to the scene, give him a loud and resounding name, and then make great things happen.

One thing, so that everyone in the world will know that this son has an extraordinary destiny, and he was born in response to the omen and the time.

At that time, Fang Guangchen mysteriously handed Yang Zhen a note with the name he had prepared for Yang Zhen's son written on it.

Yang Zhen opened it and almost burst out laughing.

Fang Guangchen named Yang Zhen's son Yang Yingxiong, which was just the same surname as Wu Sangui's son Wu Yingxiong.

——Could it be said that Wu Yingxiong, the eldest son of Wu Sangui in history, was named by Fang Guangchen?

Although Qiu Bihan did have signs of dreaming about a bear after becoming pregnant, Yang Zhen still felt a chill when he saw the name Ying Xiong.

Of course Yang Zhen knew what Fang Guangchen meant, but he still rejected Fang Guangchen's proposal on the spot.

Yang Zhen neither invited any Confucian scholars, Taoists, or great monks to name his son, nor did he choose a name that Fang Guangchen had thought up by himself. Until now, he has only used the nickname Shitou.

And this little guy is really easy to feed, can eat and sleep, and is very healthy.

Because of the birth of this little life and the existence of this little child, the backyard of the main town house became as lively as a festival every day.

Because Qiu Bihan gave birth to Jin Haibo's eldest son and received the royal decree from Emperor Chongzhen, her uncle's wife's status was as stable as a rock. Now she has a tendency to be fat and fat. In short, she is a lot plumper than before, and her eyebrows are clearer than before.

Many of them became more confident and dignified in front of the maids, servants, and servants.

The original eldest maid, Peng Yu, became the maidservant in the past few months, and because she served Yang Zhen more frequently after that, she is now three months pregnant.

Although she does not have the status of Yang Zhen's concubine now, she still has a little maid to serve her. As a rule, no matter whether the child is a son or a daughter in the future, she will definitely have the status of a concubine or aunt.

As for the other maid, Xinyue, I don't know whether it was due to a strange combination of circumstances or some other reason. She served Yang Zhen as many times as Pengyu, but she was never pregnant.

This time Yang Zhen came back from patrolling the front lines of Fuzhou City. Apart from occasionally spending the night at his wife Qiu's place, most of the nights, the eldest maid Xinyue was serving him hard.

The status of a maidservant is higher than that of an ordinary maid, but there is a considerable gap compared with the concubines or aunts of the family master.

Whether the maidservant can eventually become the master's concubine or aunt mainly depends on whether she can give birth to children.

Now that the mistress has given birth to a son, they, as the maids of the first wife, no longer have the taboo of not being able to conceive. The fact that Pengyu, who is also the maid of the first wife, is pregnant, makes Xinyue even more anxious.

Therefore, Xinyue cherished every night she could spend with Yang Zhen. She wanted to do her best every time, so that she could be pregnant with Liujia overnight and achieve a status like a jade.
