After all, there are too few and too scarce the corresponding choices of entertaining and entertaining recreational and sports activities among these peasant soldiers who have only eaten a few days after eating. You should know that most sports activities in later generations will consume a lot of physical strength, venues, and equipment resources. This is for the former farmers who have not yet cleaned the dirt on their feet and are forced to take up arms and work hard. It is too reluctant.
Therefore, the practice of most military forces in this era is to regularly release soldiers in small groups and let them have fun on their own, whether it is idling around, eating and drinking, or looking for women.
As a result, these soldiers have become a major source of nuisance to the people, and even a major source of harm. However, as long as the generals of these troops need to continue to fight with their lives afterwards, they will often take various measures to shelter and indulge them, and at the expense of the local people’s relationship and the lives of the locals, the soldiers will gain a willful venting Channels of pressure.
Of course, there are times when they can’t act recklessly; the generals will find ways to use immediate rewards and punishments to restrain them and lock them in the barracks; then they still can’t stop and avoid their boredom, and they have to let it go. Gambling, alcoholism, and fights are fun; the more intelligent generals spend some cost to organize some competitive tricks in the camp, such as cornering, shooting, and jumping, to temporarily shift some of the soldiers' high tension. pressure.
Since Zhou Huaian is a traverser with thousands of years of experience and lessons, of course, it is impossible to tolerate and indulge such crude and laissez-faire practices.
Compared with other sports such as track and field, ball games, etc., which are sweaty at every turn and require sufficient calorie intake to persist; accumulating some stories to tell the story, this is a relatively simple and quick entertainment method; theoretically only a glass of water And two pieces of lipstick are enough, once the scale and habit are formed, it is convenient to spread and promote.
Moreover, the requirements for the first batch of storytellers are not high, and they don't even need to be literate, as long as they can remember the general meaning of a certain segment. Anyway, the soldiers who don't know big characters are not very demanding. Therefore, in less than a month, storytellers from the Camp of Fury had already swept the rebel bases inside and outside of Canton, and were even invited to extend and dispatch to the forefront of the army in Meizhou and Shaozhou.
And as modern people under the bombardment of information, the most indispensable are all kinds of stories and jokes; and the price for them to listen to Zhou Huaian's story at first was just a handwritten letter from the first meeting, everything was nothing. can. By now, only a small group of people who know each other can hear the latest themes described by Zhou Huaian himself.
And the best material in it is undoubtedly that the later generations have been refined to the point that they can’t be refined any more, and the expansion of research can’t be done in more of the four masterpieces. Except for the theme of the upper-class life of the Dream of Red Mansions, whether it is the masterpiece of the collection of three religions and nine generations of myths and legends. The "Journey to the West" by Wang Hou, or "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is the theme of the battle of the kings, princes, loyal ministers, and righteous men, are both excellent choices.
However, the most appropriate one is undoubtedly the "Water Margin" with many distinctive characters. Therefore, any excerpts and fragments can become a series of interrelated short stories and rich rhymes. Italian allusions.
After the audience has formed a certain psychological inertia and receptivity, they can start to bring some of his personal goods inside, and by the way show off some of the soul chicken soup that has been rotten on the street in later generations as a cover for the name;
Of course, this is a kind of tentative layout of wide-spreading nets to fish for fish. Through thank you for the implication in the story or private goods, you can obtain some objects that can resonate and recognize, and then in-depth exchanges and dispelling doubts. You can get the initial help from the inside of the rebels; after all, in the future, if you want to leave, relying on his own preparation methods is obviously far from high.
Of course, because of the false identity of this monk's birth, it was first mentioned as "Journey to the West", which happened to be a ready-made story about the great Tang monk Xuanzang Sanzang more than 300 years ago.
Then, "Water Margin" was released step by step with many powerful rebellion stories, and finally "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" where the empires will compete for dominance in the world. This is also a step-by-step screening process in disguise, where you can see all kinds of characters with different pursuits and mentalities;
For example, those who like "Journey to the West" can undoubtedly gain a sense of escape and spiritual comfort in the story of wild monsters against the heavens;
Those who like "Water Margin" can get a certain illusory sense of identity for their real behaviors from the brothers who live and die together and Liangshan Juyi who walks for the sky;
As for the people who can get their feelings and understanding from the "Three Kingdoms", which uses the power and strategy of war to compete on the stage at the end of the Han Dynasty, at least they are people with ambitions and prospects.
As for "Dream of Red Mansions", I'm sorry, at least in this precarious and chaotic atmosphere of the bottom, it has no meaning and use other than a glimpse of the imaginary life of the upper class.
However, Zhou Huai'an apparently seriously aggravated the poverty, boring and lack of spiritual world and entertainment of these peasant uprisings. As a result, he suddenly became famous with an unexpected spread speed. Many people know that there are various things in Stormrage Camp. It is a monk who is very good in talking about the ancient times, and is also very meaningful.
Then, he justifiably stated to the General's Mansion that he needed a handful of people who could take notes with him, and thus obtained relatively limited selection and collection rights. At least he would like to thank the city of Guangzhou that he is in. Compared with the Chaoshan area, which is still surrounded and infiltrated by large tracts of wildness, Guangzhou city is the city where the essence of the entire Lingnan region is gathered.
In addition to the long-term needs for trade and interpreting exchanges, a large number of specialized practitioners and related industries have been created; and the Lingnan region has been used as a place of exile for political prisoners of the Tang Dynasty. These often have high-end from the central center of the imperial court. Political prisoners with academic qualifications and political experience, as well as their descendants, also left more or less their own marks and marks in this giant city;
Therefore, the literacy rate and civilized level of the civilians in Guangzhou is much higher than that of other places. It is known as the first in the culture and education of Lingnan, which also gives Zhou Huai'an more choice and space;
Especially after the rebels arrived and killed most of the hustlemen in the city, and checked many officials and large households, after the lock-up reaction caused a wave of continuous unemployment among related people, Zhou Huaian found that he was just like something. Stepping into a large treasure house with a wealth of reserves, you can choose and pick up people in various fields to enrich your side and corresponding workshops.
Then, with the unknown power and operation, more memorable and flexible teenagers were sent to his men to listen to and record the stories he told, and then take them back to disseminate and spread them to others.
Only a small part of the best performers were left. While teaching some vulgar words and simple arithmetic methods, they also helped him out, freeing him from the most tedious chores; so there was enough time. On the grounds of brewing stories and gathering styles, while viewing and cruising everywhere, I cover myself to do some private activities in secret.
For example, the health and epidemic prevention he is currently in charge of, the promulgation of the rebels’ propositions, and the organization and arrangement of collective labor; to say that the content that has a long-term impact on the rebels, in addition to farming fields to seek limited self-sufficiency, is actually Guangfu. Part of the internal and external handicraft industry is merged and production management.
According to the experience and lessons of the development of social productivity and the division of labor in later generations; if there is no industrial capacity, even the five most basic small industries are used as upstream to absorb and digest and transform the surplus value of agricultural production and the production materials produced; even if It is difficult to change the serious overflow of agricultural products in the social circulation after three abundant years in succession. Over time, they will be wasted and consumed in all kinds of transit and storage links.
Therefore, the low-yield rice that hurts farmers after the bumper harvest is actually related to the field of macroeconomic regulation; therefore, the slightly normal ideas and measures of the ancient dynasties were on the one hand through the "expensive and cheap harvest" level of warehouse liquidation system. Adjustment; on the other hand, the government or local people will take the lead in the construction of various large and small infrastructure projects, and through the conversion of labor and materials, these excesses and overflows can be consumed in a short time.
Now Zhou Huaian is doing the same thing. At least until these surplus food and materials that are still in the hands of the rebels, because of the corruption and mildew in Lingnan, through large-scale organized labor and engineering projects, they will become the base facilities that have continued to increase the rebels, or The conversion of exchange into other urgently needed materials is completely a matter of no gain.
Of course, the fields he handles and engages in at present, whether it is the organization of large-scale collective labor, the centralized management of handicraft workshops, or the compilation and statistics of the mineral resources in Lingdong, are the bosses of the volunteers who came from farming. I’m not good at it at all, or it’s a blank field that has been neglected and disliked for a long time. Although most people yell at the sky to compensate for the average, their thinking is still on "grabbing big tenants and killing the army" to make themselves live. The naive phase of a good day.
That's why Zhou Huaian was able to play the fastest effect like a fish in water. After all, it’s easiest to see the results when you paint on a blank sheet of nothing; you don’t have to worry about being unloaded and killing donkeys or taking the opportunity to pick peaches within a period of time. Because in this respect, as the founder of the corresponding system and system, he naturally has the first-hand advantage that is difficult to shake and replace.
With this kind of complicated feeling of contentment and expectation, he embarked on the road to a banquet after dark. (End of this chapter)
