The villagers in Guojia Village looked curiously at the vehicles and Liu Jin and others in front of them. It can be seen that Liu Jin and others are not simple.
??Looking carefully at the leader Liu Jin, this Liu Jin has an extraordinary bearing, and he looks like a big shot at first glance. Thinking about it again, there should be no such person in his Guojia Village or even in the surrounding towns.
Liu Jin walked towards the villagers, while Uncle Guo, Uncle Wang, Uncle Li and others took the initiative to move forward and said with a smile: "I don't know if a noble person has arrived, but I am far away to welcome you!"
For older people like them, they are particularly cautious in this regard, because in the past, not to mention the big shots outside, even the village chief inside the village could do anything to the villagers like them. .
So when they see someone who is an official or a noble person, they will be cautious.
¡°Brothers, I was just passing by here and asked for a glass of water.¡±
Liu Jin also smiled and returned the greeting.
"Brother?"
When Mr. Guo and others heard this, they were stunned for a moment, then looked at Liu Jin carefully and said, "I wonder how old you are, noble sir?"
"You seem to be in your thirties or forties."
"Haha, I am already over fifty years old this year."
Liu Jin said with a smile.
"Are you over fifty?"
When Uncle Guo, Uncle Wang, Uncle Li and others heard this, they all couldn't help but slightly widened their eyes, looking a little unbelievable.
Because the Liu Jin in front of him looked too young. He looked in his thirties, younger than their sons. Who knew he was also in his fifties, which was a little younger than them.
¡°It¡¯s just that I don¡¯t get much sun exposure, so I look younger.¡±
Liu Jin said with a smile, and a servant had already taken out a chair so that Liu Jin could sit down and chat with the villagers.
Some villagers here also went to boil water at home.
¡°As I¡¯ve been walking along, it seems that our village is the only one with people in this area of ??more than ten miles.¡±
Liu Jin was very easy-going and chatted with everyone.
"Isn't that right? There are basically no people around us now. Everyone has left, especially the young people. They have basically moved outside the customs. That is to say, we old guys are left and are reluctant to leave here, so Didn¡¯t leave.¡±
Uncle Guo nodded and said.
"Have they all moved outside the customs with the imperial immigrants?"
Liu Jin thought for a while and continued to ask.
"Yep!"
"Since the Hongzhi period, more than ten years ago, the imperial court began to encourage everyone to move out. In the beginning, no one was willing to leave the three places of Liaodong, Xiyu, and Hezhong."
"At that time, it was a strict order from the court. We all drew lots, and whoever was drawn would move out. Those who were drawn were as if they were going to see the King of Hell. They cried to heaven and earth, and no one was willing to leave."
"Everyone felt relieved when they saw that Liu Jin was very easy-going, had no airs, and was willing to sit and chat with everyone, and they slowly started chatting.
"Well, as far as I know, the immigration policy provided by the court at that time was still very good. Food and accommodation were provided on the way, and houses and food were given when they arrived."
Liu Jin thought for a while and said.
"That's right, the policy is very good."
"At that time, everyone was mainly afraid that those who were officials would not keep their words, that they would have nothing after they left, and that everything would have to start from scratch. If they stayed in their hometown, they would at least have a bad nest."
"Yes, everyone was scared and anxious at that time. My eldest son was the one who won the lottery. At that time, he was unwilling to go. Later, there was really no other way, so he went with the intention of dying."
Uncle Wang also added.
"There were still many people running away at that time. They would rather flee into the mountains than move to Liaodong. At that time, people said that Liaodong was the place where criminals were exiled. It was said that it was so cold that their noses and ears would be damaged. It will freeze, so it scares many people to death and they are unwilling to go."
Uncle Li also said with a smile.
When talking about the initial immigration, everyone got excited, because they were actually young at that time and could have immigrated.
"Well, it seems that people were really unwilling to immigrate back then. What happened next?"
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately laughed.
To be honest, the loess was originally going to beAh, it is indeed far different. Not only that, we have very little contact with the outside world here, so we know much less. "
"Those who immigrated are different. They know a lot and have a wide range of experiences."
"This year, our village's Wang Er Mazi, who is the same age as me, came back. When we stood together, the gap was too big. This Wang Er Mazi has now become a spirit and started doing business. What's the matter with his clothes?" They are completely different from us.¡±
Uncle Wang also followed suit.
¡°So, most of the people here have emigrated, and we are the only ones left.¡±
Uncle Li also nodded solemnly and said: "The times are changing too fast. Even those of us who have been eliminated by the times have not kept up with the development of the times."
Liu Jin listened to their words carefully and nodded while listening.
Thinking about future generations, it is similar. There is a big gap between those who have gone out to work for decades and those who have stayed at home and farmed for decades. Whether it is knowledge or other aspects, the gap is quite big.
