My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Song Mubai thought for a moment and said, "I will arrange for someone else to send the letter back."

Although the person he temporarily arranged to send the message back was slower, it was more reliable.

Fu Chengxi still vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

In the end, he could only nod and agree to Song Mubai's arrangement.

After sending a trusted confidant to the capital to deliver the message, Song Mubai remained in the city to gather intelligence on the situation.

With each new thing he encountered, his heart sank even deeper.

This is only the capital city where the Empress's son is in charge, and it's already this powerful. I can't even imagine what it would be like if the Empress herself were in charge.

Song Mubai was eager to go and see Qiongdu.

Meanwhile, the frustrated scholars and desperate officials in the capital had arrived in Qiongdu after a long journey.

As they traveled, they were increasingly surprised.

I originally thought that having just experienced war and plague, and being a harsh and cold place like Northern Qi, it must be extremely desolate.

They came prepared to endure hardship.

Unexpectedly, after leaving the capital, they saw many barren lands and refugees who were barely clothed. All of this was within the territory under the jurisdiction of the Great Zhou Emperor.

The Great Zhou Dynasty did not provide any resettlement for the refugees; its main method was to drive them away.

Once they entered the territory under the jurisdiction of the Great Qi, it was as if they had entered a new world.

Upon entering Daqi, they saw many refugee settlements. These settlements were mainly for accommodating refugees from the Zhou Kingdom.

Refugees typically do not stay in refugee camps for long.

Because Daqi provides many jobs for refugees, as long as they are willing to work, they can have enough to eat and live a good life.

The refugees can choose according to their own preferences.

As long as you register your household in Daqi, you will be given land and resettlement grain. If you do not want to farm, you can choose to become a worker.

In Daqi, there are many jobs that ordinary people can do, such as repairing canals, dikes, and roads.

There are also skilled jobs that require training before employees can be employed, even if they are unwilling to do manual labor.

Some training programs are completely free, while others require signing a contract and working for three years after completion before leaving to work elsewhere.

There are also a small number of students who need to pay tuition to study.

This was simply impossible in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

At first, many people suspected it was a scam.

How could there be such a wonderful thing in the world?

After anxiously inquiring, they learned that this was a new policy implemented by the Empress. These policies were all formulated by the Empress herself.

Many of the refugees who arrived earlier have already been settled.

After understanding the situation, many refugees decided not to go any further and instead settled in nearby towns.

Some people even entrusted others to return to Da Zhou to deliver messages to their relatives and friends, asking them to settle down in Da Qi.

In fact, all of these were the people of Zhou who couldn't survive in the Great Zhou Dynasty and thought of trying the Great Qi Dynasty to see if there was any way to live.

The people thought Daqi was a good place, so of course they wanted to find a way to send messages to their relatives and friends, urging them to move there.

Not only that, some merchants also rushed there after hearing the news.

Those who aspire to a career in government, want to achieve great things, and fulfill their ideals will certainly not stop there.

Many people continued their journey towards Qiongdu.

I want to go to Qiongdu to look for opportunities.

The further you go into Qiongdu, the more bustling it becomes. Along the way, it seems like everything is under construction and being planted, presenting a thriving scene.

What surprised them most was how prosperous Qiongdu was.
