"I heard from our village chief that in order to replenish the population of Shaanxi, at least one million Shandong people will come here in the next period of time to reclaim military farmland and settle down..."

"Also, don't talk nonsense. We didn't come from fleeing famine, but the Shanxi Governor's Office organized us to come..."

Millions of Shandong people, and they are organized by the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office...

After hearing these keywords, Sun Chengzong immediately made a specific judgment in his heart: the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office was organizing large-scale immigration to Shaanxi without hiding the court, further increasing the population and strength of the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces...

However, in Sun Chengzong's view, it is impossible to do even if the imperial court does it. Can the Shanxi Governor's Office be able to do it with the power of the Shanxi province?

In addition, are these millions of immigrants from Shandong forced to immigrate to the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office?

With so many people leaving Shandong, have they not noticed anything? Is there any secret between Shandong's patrol and Shanxi Governor's Office?

Faced with a series of questions that quickly surged in his mind, Sun Chengzong frowned, and at this moment, his frowning became deeper. As an important minister of the court, Sun Chengzong was very clear about the importance of Shandong and Shanxi provinces to the capital.

From the topographic perspective, if there is really any ulterior motive between Shandong and Shanxi, the court located in the capital will be completely isolated by these two provinces.

Neither the taxes from Jiangnan nor the grain from Jiangnan could enter the capital.

There is no money or food. No matter how capable the court has, it cannot maintain it. At that time, there will be only one result waiting for the court, that is destruction...

As a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty and an important minister promoted by Emperor Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong never wanted to see such a thing happen.

So, Sun Chengzong, who was frowning, asked Zhang Heizi without thinking: "Brother, we Han people have a custom, that is, Gu Tu can't leave... So many of you have set out from Shandong and walked thousands of miles before we got here... When we made this decision, it must have been very difficult..."

Zhang Heizi nodded and replied: "This old man is right. I really thought about it for a long time when I made this decision... However, among us, only a small number of them were voluntarily immigrated. Most of the others were forced by the government..."

"However, whether we want to or not, we will not regret it after we get here."

"Because, the Shanxi Governor's Office is so nice to us..."

"If we don't come, we will still be hungry in Shandong and have no meal after eating this meal. However, when we arrived in Shaanxi, with the help of the Shanxi Governor's Office, we have never been hungry anymore... As long as we are willing to do things, the wages earned from the Shanxi Governor's Office can be made to eat white rice every day..."

"You don't know yet, sir... At most, the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office will send countless cattle and sheep from Mongolia. According to the village chief, the Governor's Office will sell these cattle and sheep to us at a very cheap price, and there is no interest of one or two silver coins... At that time, as long as we work diligently for two years, we will pay off all the money and food owed to the Governor's Office, and the cattle and sheep distributed to us by the Governor's Office will be our own..."

"In a word, this Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office is so nice to us... Compared with the court, it is simply from heaven and on the ground..."

"I and the villagers around me have discussed that after the first batch of grain we planted will be harvested, in addition to taxes, each household will take out a load of grain and give it to the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office to repay the kindness of the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office to us..."

"When I have money in the future, I will also set up a tablet of immortality for the Governor General Wei at home, pray to the Bodhisattva every day, so that the Bodhisattva can bless the General Wei for a long life..."

When Sun Chengzong was in Shanxi, he clearly felt that the ordinary people in Shanxi had already unknowingly only knew the Governor General of Shanxi and Shaanxi, and the court... He only knew Wei Zheng, the Governor General of Shanxi and Shaanxi, and the emperor in the capital...

After carefully understanding the policy of the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office for ordinary people, Sun Chengzong was shocked and had to admit that if he was an ordinary person, this would also happen.

Because, whether it is the distribution policy of the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office, or the distribution of cattle and sheep to everyone with no interest, only grain tax is imposed, and other tyrannical taxes are abolished... The policies, without exception, are all the most moving people, and are most closely related to their lives.

However, what Sun Chengzong did not expect was that the people who had just immigrated from Shandong in front of him became the same as the people in Shanxi, and they only recognized the governor's office of the Shanxi and Shaanxi, and did not recognize the court...

Sun Chengzong could not imagine that if this situation could not be changed, if this situation continues, more than 10 million people in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces would become the most loyal supporters of the Tiger and Leopard Army step by step.

To put it bluntly, if one day the Tiger and Leopard Army turn against each other, more than one million people will definitely follow the Tiger and Leopard Army and rebel.

Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong couldn't help but feel a little scared from the bottom of his heart.

However, he did not forget his purpose: what conspiracy is there between the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi and Shandong... He knew that immigration to Shaanxi would increase the strength of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, but he still allowed this kind of thing to happen, and he did not report it to the court, and did these things behind his back...

After taking a deep breath, Sun Chengzong suppressed his inner concerns and asked Zhang Heizi in front of him: "Brother, since you were sent to Shaanxi by the Shandong garrison, do you know why the Shandong garrison did this?"

When it comes to the Shandong garrison, the various evil deeds that the Shandong garrison have acted against them along the way have come to Zhang Heizi's mind.

Then, he said to Sun Chengzong with anger: "The imperial army, which is inferior to the bandits, cannot really do it for our own good, no matter what it is for. Otherwise, they would not have taken away all the finances from us when we left Shandong and allowed us to enter the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces without any flaws."

The obvious differences in the attitudes of these immigrants towards the imperial army and the tiger and leopard army were once again like a needle, piercing into Sun Chengzong's heart, making Sun Chengzong feel a hint of heartache and helplessness from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, Zhang Heizi, who was full of anger, seemed to have thought of something.

The anger on his face not only did not mean that it would disappear at all, but instead became stronger.

He shouted to Sun Chengzong: "Silver must be for the money... I can be sure that those imperial officials must have forced us to Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces for the money..."

"How is it possible? Just forcibly give the people under the rule to others for money... Is this still the army of the court?" Sun Chengzong, with an incredible face, asked loudly.
