Chapter 349: Exiled heresy

Cecil collar, in the Lord's study.

A recent report on the immigration of the population was sent to Gao Wen’s desk. Gao Wen looked at every number on the top and looked extra.

The situation is not much worse than he expected. After the month of recovery, a new wave of immigration began, and this time, the number of migrants who moved into Cecil led far more than the number of serfs and slaves.

The news of Cecil’s acceptance of the refugees spread and spread throughout the autumn and winter. Nowadays, it has spread all over the southern corners. Even the most incomprehensible civilians know that the development collar next to the dark mountains is almost Unconditionally absorbing foreign populations, and anyone in the land has the opportunity to obtain land houses and free civil identities. During the entire frosty period last year, Gao Wen spared no effort to promote this matter, and finally saw the effect.

Through the mercenary channels of the year, Byron Knight published a large number of employment news in the south and fulfilled every transaction. Therefore, the merchants who operated the ships and the fleets tasted the sweetness in the process, and also established the Cecil collar. Enough trust, so the work of the displaced people has entered a state of a virtuous circle.

Now that the Byron Knights are no longer required to send people to rush, there will be a fixed "immigrant caravan" running between the various territories and doing this "emerging business", those who are timid and have good relations with mercenaries. The caravan bosses were able to find displaced people in various places or those who wished to travel to Cecil for various reasons. These merchants carried the permit documents issued by the Duke of Cecil and transported them free to Cecil. Then, according to the number of people transported, they received remuneration from the Office of Government Affairs. Even some mercenaries put down their swords. They bought several caravans and started a similar business. They collected the displaced people and immigrants and sent them to Cecil’s collar. A business...

In the process, Gao Wen also rectified several times to refrain from obeying the law, and deliberately executed a group of criminals who attempted to sell or abuse immigrants. This is a rule for this "business". The concept of Cecil’s strict laws was printed in the minds of businessmen and mercenaries.

Compared with the increase in the number of immigrants, what makes Gao Wen happy is the optimization of the career structure of new immigrants. Last year, the people who moved into Cecil were basically slaves and wanderers without any skills, like craftsmen and scholars. Under normal circumstances, people will not fall into the situation of being homeless and selling as slaves. Therefore, all kinds of technical talents are "digging" at a great price, but in recent batches of people who have moved into the population. Skilled craftsmen who have voluntarily moved into the territory have emerged, and the emergence of these people means one thing: the appeal of Cecil is growing.

People have stubborn suspicions and prejudice against this land at the foot of the dark mountains. It is difficult to change in a short period of time, but Cecil has indeed established a foothold here, and it is especially important for technical talents. Excellent treatment, enough interests to drive, people's suspicions and prejudice will give in.

At the end of the winter, the city of Cecil has more than 14,000 people. For this era, this is enough to be called a “medium-sized city”, but for the rapid construction of the magic The industrialized Cecil leader, these populations still have a lot of loopholes in the establishment of an industrial system, and now, with the increasing number of immigrants and the continuous optimization of the immigration structure, the population of Gaowen has always been plagued. The problem has finally begun to ease.

Putting down the report file in his hand, Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief, then stood up and prepared to move his body, but when he was about to stand up, the window of the study suddenly opened automatically, and a cold wind blew into the room.

Gao Wen took up his hand and knocked in the air: "You can't come in once from the door occasionally?"

The figure of amber emerged with the collapse of this brain. Miss Half Elf stared at her head and looked at Gao Wen with dissatisfaction: "How do you like the people of Cecil like to knock on the head? Two days ago I am joking with Rebecca. She also wants to stick my head with a stick. You can't leave a good ancestral training for future generations?"

"Knocking on the head is not the ancestral training I left. The Cavaliers are more powerful than the Master." Gao Wen took a look at this guy. "Let's say, at this point, you should be in the city to fish." ”

"I am going to patrol the territory for you!" Amber squinted and retorted, then raised his finger in the direction of the dock area. "There was a new ship on the dockside, with a group of people who wanted to settle here... But the situation is a bit complicated, and the person at the registration office can't decide, I will come to you."

"Is the immigration ship?" Gao Wen frowned. I don't know if there is any good report on this kind of thing. "As long as it is not a vicious infectious disease, several types of criminals who are forbidden to accept, and the population that has been trafficked to it, they will be directly registered to the buffer camp. Not on the line? And even if it is the three situations I just said, there should be corresponding regulations."

"The new situation," Amber said, "is a heresy that is persecuted by religion..."

Gao Wen: "...ha?"

Soon, he and Amber came to the dock area in the north of the city. On the new, cemented pier, he saw the soldiers who kept order, the owners who were telling the soldiers, and those who were sullen and adjective. New immigrants.

"The Lord is here! The Lord is here!"

Soon after, someone noticed that Gao Wen’s figure was really striking where the two-meter-high block was standing. The crowd gathered on the side of the crowd immediately retired while Gao Wen went to the center of the incident. He first quickly looked at those who were obviously A look at the "hereever" in uneasiness.

They have more than 20 people, men and women, and a few children. They dress differently, some wear ordinary burlap clothes, and some wear wool coats that are quite high in this era. But in general, these people should be dressed in the middle or upper part of the civilian population.

And these people who should have lived in peace of mind obviously went through a long journey that was not very comfortable. They were white and sly, their hair was messy and greasy, their cheeks were deep and they shivered in the cold wind. They looked around. The eyes are horrified and fearful. This is especially true when I see Gao Wen. This is a manifestation of long-term mental stress and constant concern for life and death.

Seeing the situation of these people, and talking about the situation that Amber told him on the road, Gao Wen guessed the experiences of these people, and at the same time, these "refugees" also bowed their prayers after confirming their aristocratic status. The boss of the ship with a big beard in a brown coat also squatted down and said, "Lord Lord, I just sent these people over."

Gao Wen raised his hand and stopped the argument and flicker that the ship’s boss was about to begin: “Get up first. Where do these people come from?”

The refugees stood up and the boss of the ship stood up nervously. He did not live in front of Gao Wen: "Go back to the old man, from the plain of the Holy Spirit."

"It’s really a short road..." Gao Wen frowned. "What is the so-called exile of heresy?"

"That's too serious, lord the lord," said the ship boss, hurriedly. "These people are because some people in their local church are doing sorcerers. They are afraid of being implicated. They dare not stay in their hometown before they ran out... ..."

Gao Wen nodded and looked at those who shivered and pointed to one of them: "What are you talking about?"

"I...we didn't do anything, the pastors said that we are cultists' claws, grabbed our house...the house, and drove us out..." Gao Wen was picking one up. The sturdy man who looks very honest and honest, he talks stuttering, and he doesn’t know if he is nervous or faced with the big aristocracy. "We are there to catch people, burn...burn people, too...too... ”

"Hey, don't say it, you stuttered and smeared the ears of the lord's master!" A woman next to the man interrupted him. The woman was nervous and screamed at Gao Wen. "Master, we They are all honest civilians, planting land at home or doing small business..."

"Who is sure that you are a cultist?" Gao Wen directly interrupted those who could not describe their own situation and asked a straightforward question, "Which church pastor? What do they judge?"

"Yes... the pastors of the Church of the Light," a man in a woolen coat spoke. "Last winter, several families in the city were kidnapped by cultists. The bodies were discovered only a few days later. Later, the Church of the Light The priests and knights found the cultists hiding in the city. After burning the cultists, they began to search the whole city... They said that only the light can identify the cultists hidden in ordinary people, so what they said Everyone believes."

Gao Wen listened as he frowned.

Amber came to his side and tried to smack his toes and said, "Hey, I tell you, I am afraid that there will be trouble if I bring these people in."

Gao Wenbi is expressionless: "Trouble?"

"The sacred priests are super hard to do," Amber groaned. "And they have a nose that is better than a dog, and they like to associate anything with evil, heresy, etc. You put these things in the light." The evangelists are coming in, maybe they will use the title."

"This kind of trouble doesn't matter," Gao Wen said casually. "The Holy Light Church has their censorship. I have my censorship. In Cecil, I will follow the rules of Cecil. I will review these people according to the prescribed procedures. Call Pitman also to see if they really have a sinister reaction. If there is no problem, send it to the buffer camp."

Gao Wen does not believe in the "heretical judgment" made by the Church of Light, especially after hearing the experiences of these people, but he will not blindly believe these refugees because of doubts about the Church of the Light, so he They will confirm their identity before putting them into the city. Pittman was able to recognize the atmosphere of the fallen Druid. So far, the judgment of the little old man is still very accurate. He can confirm whether these people are the believers of all things, and if they are eternal...

It's even simpler, Gao Wen turned back to the net and see if there are any strange ips around him.

As for the son of the storm... Gao Wen thinks that there is no need to worry, the guys have completely withdrawn from the land, and now they are in full swing with the deep sea salted fish.

And if it weren't for the members of the three dark sects mentioned above, the remaining climatic cults would be largely unable to cross the interrogation and observation process in the buffer camp.
