The reason for the birth of this celebration is very simple, that is, the invention of papermaking. About half a month after the public debut of papermaking, under the premise that many Taoists worked overtime and many Taoist priests personally operated related magic tools for production, one day
A total of seven million books were printed in Tone!
Although these seven million books are the simplest thousand-character texts, books are books!
This book was given as a gift by Jiang Hua to every Yancheng citizen!
Whether you are new here or a long time resident, this moment is yours to enjoy.
As a result, a large-scale celebration spread across Dongning Island.
Jiang Hua added an illusion to himself, which greatly changed his appearance.
In the past, Jiang Hua was just a little warlock. At that time, any warlock who came over could feel the illusion he cast on himself.
Warlocks may not be able to see through Jiang Hua's illusions at the first time, nor may they be able to see Jiang Hua's true face through the illusions at the first time, but the warlocks can feel Jiang Hua's illusions through the subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy.
How can a person be a good person if he doesn't reveal his true colors and always performs illusions?
If you feel that you have a secret and are shady, then you can wear a cloak. But no, if you cast an illusion on yourself, isn't it equivalent to telling others openly that you have a problem?
Therefore, at that time, after Jiang Hua cast an illusion on himself, he was easily discovered by the village chiefs under his rule. At that time, Jiang Hua was walking around, just wandering around the village and fields.
It's different now. Today's Jiang Hua has advanced cultivation, and his understanding of illusions is also more and more different.
Just like at this moment, with almost a thought, he and everyone following him cast a group illusion.
At this moment, in the eyes of outsiders, Jiang Hua is the son of an ordinary Chinese and looks ordinary.
The reason why the sons of Chinese people are ordinary is mainly because Jiang Hua had previously rewarded people on a large scale to enjoy the treatment of Chinese people.
The reason for the reward at that time was: In times of crisis, you still never give up on Yancheng. This is a true loyal minister!
Then, the original millions of people in Yancheng enjoyed the treatment of Chinese people.
As a result, their heirs naturally received admission notices from the Junior Academy.
This is the origin of the 200,000 students in the Junior Academy at the beginning!
Later, for those common people and barbarians who migrated, Jiang Hua often gave them opportunities to make progress: some of his family members joined the county army and were directly rewarded with the treatment of Chinese people. Some of his family members sacrificed for Yancheng and were treated with the treatment of Chinese people. Some of his family members made contributions to Yancheng.
For his great contribution, he will reward the people of the country with treatment...
Anyway, Jiang Hua is looking for almost every opportunity to expand the Chinese community and allow the people under his rule to enjoy the treatment of Chinese people in some aspects: such as education.
Even Jiang Hua cannot let the other party's children have the right to enter the junior academy without the other party doing anything. This would be unfair to the original people.
But as long as the other party is willing to contribute and work hard, you can basically find an opportunity to send your child to a junior academy to study.
This is Yancheng today!
And today, Jiang Hua took advantage of the opportunity of the celebration to come and have a good look.
While walking, Jiang Hua saw a big pot of rice.
A large iron pot with a diameter of one meter was placed on the campfire and burned directly. The whole pot was almost burning and smoking, so an old man added some lard and a few large pieces of fat into it.
A sizzling sound followed.
There were a group of children surrounding him. Jiang Hua had some impression of this old man. He was known as Old Man Li. He was an ordinary, unremarkable old man. Now he was raising children in a junior academy and had no sons or grandchildren. He was all alone.
I usually treat my children as grandchildren and have received a lot of praise.
The children also think that the stories told by Old Man Li are pleasant, and the parents also think that Old Man Li is very good at taking care of their children. They often bring a piece of meat or a pound of refined salt to treat Old Man Li.
Today, the fat meat in this big iron pot was given by a butcher parent.
This big iron pot was given by a blacksmith's parents.
This kind of large iron pot is very popular in Dongning Island today, and many people like it very much.
Old Man Li moved very skillfully. Jiang Hua hid in the dark and watched for a while, then appeared with a smile: "Uncle Li, are you cooking for the children here?"
Hearing the voice, Old Man Li silently raised his head, glanced at Jiang Hua as if he didn't recognize him, and nodded slightly: "Yes."
"There have been celebrations recently, and a lot of rice and salted fish have been distributed."
"Actually, salted fish is not bad. It's okay to eat. It's meat after all, but if you eat too much, it's not good for your health. These children are still young after all, so I thought about making a pot of meat for them."
As he spoke, Old Man Li picked up the shovel and pointed it at the pot and began to stir-fry.
A large amount of fat is squeezed out, and the aroma of meat can be smelled from a distance.
Jiang Hua was holding a piece of monster meat in his hand: "Old man, here, this is a piece of monster meat. It is just an ordinary monster. The children will not be depleted if they eat it."
"This piece of meat is not big. It only weighs three kilograms including the meat and bones. Later, old man, you can use this piece of meat to make soup. Let each of the children have a bowl of broth. Don't drink too much. Drinking too much will harm your health."
You may not be able to bear it.”
With that said, Jiang Hua looked at these children again.
The clothes these children wear are all school uniforms issued by the academy. The clothes themselves are complete and the quality is nothing to say. They are all about the same. There is no obvious cutting of corners, which ensures basic fairness.
But the clothes of these children are not very neat, and some of them are not neatly dressed. In addition, it is a celebration recently, not the busy farming season, but they are still here with Uncle Li. It is obvious that they are a group of orphans.
Most likely they have no parents. In today's era, tragedies are everywhere, and not having parents is just one of many tragedies.
Looking at the longing eyes of these children, Jiang Hua grabbed his right hand behind his back, and some medicinal herbs appeared on his hand: "Uncle, these are six spiritual herbs. They are not valuable things. It is very bitter and very painful."
It tastes bad and many people are unwilling to drink it. When you have time, you can use it to make soup..."
After seeing this place, Jiang Hua left.
Seeing this scene, Feng Yi whispered to Jiang Hua: "I plan to ask the cabinet to distribute ten Kuding grass to all junior schools in the name of the Lord. After the Kuding grass is boiled into soup, it will help replenish the body's health."
Yang Qi, it lays a solid foundation, but it is too bitter and unpleasant to drink, and even those with a little bit of money are not willing to do it.”
"In this way, we can prevent the spiritual herbs from being stolen and replaced along the way, and also prevent these medicinal soups from ending up in the hands of the sons of rich people."
"Although it tastes a bit unpleasant, it can ensure that children from poor families can drink it."
Finally, Jiang Hua nodded slightly.
Just like Feng Yi said, it's not that there aren't more good things in Yancheng, but no matter what good things are, divided by 200,000, no, now it is divided by 1.2 million.
How much of any good thing is left after dividing it by 1.2 million?
Any small problem is no longer small when multiplied by 1.2 million!
Many times, rulers are not fools and want to do something good for the people. But since ancient times, are there not many examples of good intentions doing bad things?
No matter how good the policies above are, if the officials below do not implement them, they may give you twice as much...
It's not that Jiang Hua doesn't want to give more good things, but even if the prefect's mansion grits his teeth and gives them, will these good things really fall into the hands of the children?
Even if kids get good stuff, can they really keep it?
There are many things that you should not think too much about. If you think too much, you will easily fall into darkness and doubt the world.
At noon, Jiang Hua arrived at a small town.
This small town is also holding a celebration. Even though they are far away, Jiang Hua can hear the mayor's loud voice.
"It has been more than five months since our town was established. It is one of the oldest towns on the entire Dongning Island."
"Our town was just a village at first. Later, everyone actively cultivated and developed, and it became a small town more than three months ago. Now, it is already a real big town. The whole town is
There are eight villages, with more than 4,600 people in the villages and more than 2,400 people in the town, totaling more than 7,000 people."
Following the sound, Jiang Hua saw the village chief standing on a high platform holding a large loudspeaker in his hand.
This speaker is a low-level magic weapon, and it is also one of the many small inventions that Taoists have made in life since Taoism entered their lives.
Near the village chief, there was a warlock. Behind the warlock were a group of alchemists. They were all wearing uniforms issued by the academy, and they were clearly members of the system.
"These days are celebrations, and the Taoist Palace has also sent Taoists to distribute benefits to our town!"
Having said this, the mayor handed the big speaker to the Taoist. The Taoist actually didn't need to use this thing to amplify his voice, but considering the current scene, the Taoist still took the big speaker from the mayor: "
"Ahem"
"Good afternoon, everyone. There is a celebration recently. Entrusted by the Prefect's Mansion, we will distribute a pound of spiritual rice and a cup of spiritual spring to every common person."
"This time, the distribution is per head. The number of people in the family will be able to receive a few kilograms of spiritual rice and a few cups of spiritual spring."
"In order to prevent someone from taking advantage of their power to embezzle these spiritual rice and spiritual springs, we stipulate that all spiritual springs must be drunk in person! They must be drank in front of us."
"As for the spiritual rice, without good storage conditions, it can only retain its effect for one month. After one month, the spiritual rice will gradually lose its effectiveness. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone eat the spiritual rice quickly after receiving it to ensure peace of mind.
"
"Of course, spiritual rice is not a valuable thing. You can buy it at any market in any small town in Yancheng today. Ordinary rice costs one pound per pound. This spiritual rice costs more than one hundred dollars per pound. In fact, with everyone's current
With our family background, we can afford it with all our teeth, but we don’t often eat such expensive things.”
"In addition to spiritual rice and spiritual springs, there is also a small amount of monster meat."
"These monster meat will be cooked directly in front of everyone later, and each person will end up with a big bowl of broth."
"All the above processes will be done in front of everyone and will also be recorded by the crystal ball."
Having said this, the warlock glanced at the alchemists on the side, and five or six alchemists suddenly came out, each holding a crystal ball high and starting to record from different angles.
At the same time, an alchemist took out a large iron pot with a diameter of about three meters and contained several hundred kilograms of demonic beast meat. On average, one person would have enough to eat one or two taels. With such a small amount, one would not be afraid of eating it.
human life.
Seeing the crystal ball open completely, the mayor's eyes lit up.
After a while, the mayor took the big trumpet from the warlock and shouted loudly: "This time, in addition to the benefits given to everyone by the prefect's mansion, our town's public treasury has also accumulated a lot of wealth, which was not distributed before.
, that is to prevent someone from taking advantage of it."
"Now there are people coming down, and there is a crystal ball recording on the side, so we take this opportunity to distribute some of the wealth from the public treasury to every household and every citizen."
"Although our town is only a little over five months old, it actually has a lot of good things."
"There's nothing in terms of food, but there's actually a lot of monster meat."
"Five months ago, it was still a village. When the village was being developed, we encountered a large wild boar that had not yet matured into sperm. At that time, a dozen old men in the village put on armors and held long hair, and directly killed the wild boar, which weighed several kilograms.
The heavy wild boar has been taken care of."
"According to the rules, half of the wild boar belongs to them personally and half to the village. Later, that half of the wild boar was given to the Junior Academy, which had just been established a few days ago, and the Junior Academy gave us some admission places."
"Four months ago, the town guard in our town encountered a python that was about to become a sperm..."
"Later, half of the python was returned to the village and sold for 200,000 yuan..."
"So far, we have discovered sixteen monsters that are about to become spirits. They have been sold for a total of 1.85 million yuan."
"Excluding the shovels, iron pots, iron axes, armors and other items we purchased, plus the occasional spiritual herbs we discovered, we still have two million dollars saved."
"Later, each citizen will be given a piece of coarse cloth or thirty large coins."
Listening to the cheers of the people, Jiang Hua nodded with satisfaction.
After all, Jiang Hua has a conscience, and he will not refuse to give out money to the people, nor will he just say that it will cause inflation and will cause the people to feel that they are getting something for nothing.
Let people develop bad habits.
Just a few dozen big bucks can make people happy, eliminate the barriers between each other, and make them feel like a family. It's money well spent!
Just like at this moment, no one will say where you are from or where I am from. When they leave the town tomorrow and meet other people, they will only say that our town is grand, rich and has given us a sufficient salary.
Thirty big bucks!
Others would say: Although our town does not have so much money, our town has a lot of monster meat, so each of us was given one or two pieces of monster meat, which is quite a lot!
Slowly, the identity of ordinary people becomes that of a certain town, and this is how the sense of identity comes!
When we have more sense of identity, we become a family!
Thinking of this, Jiang Hua left happily. He had to go to the next town to continue his inspection.
I was so tired last night that I went to bed at 7 o'clock. I originally planned to get up at 7:30 to code. But when I slept until 7:30, I was really too tired, so I took half a day off.
Then I fell asleep and slept until almost six o'clock, almost eleven hours...
