Chapter 445 New and old immigrants
In Delba Port, Mo Qing stretched his neck and looked at the sea in the distance, his eyes were about to burst into flames.

"Brother Mo, don't look at it. If you look at it again, you will lose your eyesight. I doubt if the news you got is accurate?"

Wu Wang was sitting in the shade of a tree, gnawing on fruit with one hand, looking very leisurely.

"Brother, you are a full man who doesn't know how hungry a man is hungry. Sister Qu married you early, and now she even has children. Brother, I am still single now!"

Mo Qing turned to look at Wu Wang with resentment and complained.

As prisoners, they were also the first batch of immigrants to come to Tianzhu. However, because there were too few female prisoners, only Wu Wang and a few others were married for such a long time, and the rest were single. Of course, there were also many men. Unable to bear the loneliness, she married a local native.

"Brother, you still have the guts to say that last time the rich man named Singer wanted to marry his daughter to you, but you refused to agree to it. If you nodded at that time, you might have children now."

Wu Wang rolled his eyes at Mo Qing and said.

In Tianzhu, marrying a daughter requires a very generous dowry. Not only did the former Singer have a rich family, but he was also willing to spend money in order to marry a Han. He once promised a dowry of hundreds of acres of fertile land and dozens of servants, but Mo Qing was disagree.

"Our Mo family used to be a big family anyway, and our ancestors even served as officials. Even if I am in trouble now, I can't marry a daughter of a foreign race. Otherwise, how can I have the face to see our ancestors of the Mo family after death?"

Mo Qing stubbornly shook his head and said, although he didn't read much, he was literate at least, so he was very interested in the distinction between Huayi and Huayi. It was okay for Natu people to be concubines, but marrying a wife was something he couldn't do. I still hope to marry a Han woman.

"Okay, anyway, you're right, but is the news you got accurate? We've all stayed in Port Del Bar for a few days longer, but now we haven't even seen a shadow of a ship."

Wu Wang asked suspiciously again.

Mo Qing's shop finally opened, mainly doing two-sided business, one is to buy specialties from Delhi and sell them to merchants in Ming Dynasty, and the other is to buy some products from Ming Dynasty and sell them in stores to local natives. Business is pretty good now.

Just half a month ago, Mo Qing and Wu Wang collected a batch of special products from Delhi, then sent them to Port Delba and sold them to some Han merchants here. In fact, most of these Han merchants belonged to various noble families. Managers, only they have the ability to run so far now.

In the process of dealing with these managers, Mo Qing heard the news that a fleet of ships had just returned from the port of Malaga. According to them, there was a fleet full of immigrants from Ming Dynasty in Malaga. Sailing towards Tianzhu.

After Mo Qing heard the news, he immediately jumped three feet high with joy, and then decided to stay in Delba Port for a few more days.

When people like Mo Qing came, they were all prisoners, but since they were assigned to the fields, as long as those who are willing to work hard, almost all of them will soon have the capital to settle down, and those with more flexible minds, like Mo Qing, will start to work. Business, but also earned a considerable family business.

The problem of food and clothing was solved, and then I naturally thought of getting married and having children. Although some people married native women, more people still wanted to wait. After all, both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhang Zhong said that a large-scale Migrated Han people came here.

That's why Mo Qing was so happy when he heard the news that immigrants were coming. As the saying goes, he wants to stay at the port and be the first to contact those immigrants, so as to choose a woman he likes to marry.

"It must be true. The group of businessmen met the eldest son in Manlajia, and met the immigrants from our Daming, but they came back first, so the immigrants may have to wait a few days longer."

Mo Qing replied affirmatively, and then looked up at the sea in the distance.

"Brother Mo, if immigrants really come, what kind of woman do you think you want to marry?"

Wu Wang suddenly became interested and asked about Mo Qing's gossip.

"This one……"

Hearing this, Mo Qing pondered for a moment, then suddenly sighed.

"My requirements are not high. After all, I'm almost forty, but I don't even have a single heir, so I mainly want to find someone to give birth to. It's best to reach adulthood this year and have a son next year."

Mo Qing was very down-to-earth and directly stated his request.

However, his thinking is normal in this era. After all, for men in this era, marriage is mainly for the purpose of having children, leaving children for themselves to continue the bloodline, otherwise, when they are gone, even a person who will burn paper Neither could be found.

"I think it would be good for you to have a daughter. After all, my family is a son. When our two families get married, wouldn't it be an even better marriage?"

Wu Wang said with a smile.

He married the female snitch Qu Hong last year, and Qu Hong soon became pregnant. This year, he gave birth to a fat boy. Now he is thinking about his son and even wants to book his son's marriage in advance.

"It's a beautiful thought. My first child will definitely be a son. On the contrary, you and Sister Qu are still young. In the future, we will have a daughter for the second child. When the time comes, your daughter will marry my son. That would be called a marriage!"

Mo Qing raised her eyebrows and said.

"Okay, Qu Hong and I are planning to have a daughter, but you have to hurry up. Don't wait for my daughter to be born. If you haven't married yet, my daughter won't be waiting for your son!"

Wu Wang laughed again and said that he and Mo Qing are in business together, and they know each other well, so it would be nice to form a family with sons and daughters.

"Don't worry, as long as new immigrants come this time, I will definitely find a suitable woman!"

Mo Qing stood up straight and said confidently.

It's not that he is boasting. In fact, although Mo Qing is almost forty, he is tall and has good features. In addition, his business is now on the right track and he has accumulated a fortune. It can be said that the conditions are quite good.

The only disadvantage is that Mo Qing used to be a liar and had a criminal record in the government. Although he has come to Tianzhu now, if the new immigrants know that they were all prisoners before, it may scare off a group of women.

You must know that even some female prisoners are unwilling to choose a marriage partner from male prisoners.

"Okay, Brother Mo, as long as you have this confidence, if you get married, Qu Hong and I will definitely give you a generous gift!"

Wu Wang laughed again when he heard the words. As a good friend, he also hoped that Mo Qing could get married as soon as possible. Then the two families would live next to each other and have a few more children. It would definitely be much better than it is now.

At this moment, Mo Qing habitually glanced at the sea, then jumped up and shouted in surprise: "Here we come, our Daming fleet is here!"
