How many Shandong immigrants came to the northeast?

The trip to Kanto begins at 1877 and ends at 1904.

With the signing of the Sino-Russian Beijing Treaty in 1860, Russia occupied all the territory north of Heilongjiang and east of Wusuli River in China, and the northeast frontier crisis was unprecedented. To this end, the Qing court officially banned reclamation in the same year.

With the lifting of the ban, a large number of people poured into kanto region. 1877- 1878, the "Ding Wuqi Famine" broke out in the Central Plains, and Shandong, Zhili, Henan and Shanxi suffered severe droughts. About100000 people starved to death, and a large number of victims from North China flooded into the northeast. Because it was a long journey to Kanto, people called it "going to Kanto".

When a large number of bankrupt peasants from the Central Plains entered the vast northeast region, they found that local bandits were serious. "There are bandits in this area, ranging from small to hundreds of gangs, and their existence is impermanent."

In this environment, it is difficult for foreigners to move here to open up wasteland, work and fish in strange environments, which is conceivable. In this environment, the vast majority of Han people have created their own world in the vast kanto region with their hard-working hands.

1904, the Russo-Japanese War broke out, and a large-scale naval battle and land war took place between Japan and Russia. In the northeast, "tens of thousands of people were caught in the bullets, and those who died in the artillery Lin Lei array lost their lives. Father and son are crying on the road, and relatives and friends are crying on the road, which is unbearable. " .

Walking on thin ice. However, after the September 18th Incident, it became more difficult to move eastward, and many Shandong people returned home to escape Japanese rule and alleviate the drought in the Pass.

The impact of de-orientalization on the economy;

From Shandong Peninsula to Liaodong Peninsula, with the progress and development of ship and navigation technology, sea routes have become a route for people to break through the East China Sea. The wave of "breaking eastern Shandong" means that the farming culture in the central plains has developed to the nomadic culture in the northeast on a large scale.

Villages in Shandong and Hebei take root in the northeast, which is actually a plane transplant of Central Plains culture. The basic prototype of Qilu culture or Yanzhao culture has been maintained. Basically, it is the expansion of agricultural society in North China.

The other group is mining, unloading, digging, logging and gold panning. Workers from all walks of life have also brought advanced production and life skills. Through the integration with local governments, it has promoted the development of the three eastern provinces.
