Chapter 363: Entertainment for All
"Business? Oh, by the way, father-in-law, the military school can start recruiting students! ”
"Enroll now? Is your academy finished? ”
"Academy? That's not a hurry! This military school is not something that anyone can enter if they want to, and there must be a round of screening before entering the military academy! ”
Li Er's brows furrowed slightly. "Screening? How to filter? ”
"Well, I think it can be divided into two steps, the first is to hold an all-army competition or military exercise in the army, and the outstanding winners can be selected. The second is the folk, as the old saying goes, the master is in the folk, and now the government soldiers who are farming at home are also some elite, so you can make all localities do a good job of publicity, hold a folk competition, and the winner will be selected! Finally, the selected people are gathered together, and the little nephew is doing the final screening! ”
Li Er's brows tightened. "Boy, how did I notice that you are getting more and more out of character now? What can you do with your lips? Or a big competition between the whole people and the whole army? Do you know how much it costs? ”
Li Yi smiled. "Father-in-law, who will do this! If someone else does it, of course, it will cost the people and money, but let the little nephew do it, and promise not to spend a penny on you! ”
Li Er obviously didn't believe it. "Let's talk about it first!"
"First of all, I won't talk about the competition in this army, their usual training and competition are no different, as long as they set the tone, they won't spend any money at all!"
Li Er was noncommittal, he also knew that the army competition didn't cost much money, even if there was no such thing, the army's competition would come every three or five times, so there was nothing to consider about this matter, the key was the people's competition.
"Father-in-law, what do you think of my condor shooting for the people?"
Li Er stretched out his hand to hit someone, and there was already anger in his eyes. "Stinky boy, your skin is itchy, isn't it? That's getting down to business! ”
Li Er may usually be a little more fun, but when it comes to business, he is more serious than anyone else.
"I'm getting down to business!"
Li Er was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Yi's serious expression, and then slowly calmed down.
"Although your story is wonderful, you are a plaything and a dead thing!"
"The son-in-law has always believed in one sentence, that is, existence is reasonable. I don't know if you found it, the son-in-law invented the card last year, only one month, it quickly swept the entire Chang'an, this year invented mahjong, only three days, it quickly swept Chang'an, within a month, mahjong vendors everywhere, according to the information obtained by the son-in-law, now more than 300 states in the Tang Dynasty have one-third of the state capital mahjong. And now, Feng Xiaomei can only speak to more than 100 people with one mouth, but the fact is that the entire people of Chang'an know Guo Jing and Huang Rong. The son-in-law admits that solitaire and mahjong are all playthings, but why can these playthings be sought after by the people so quickly? Are the people all playthings and discouraged? I think there's a reason for it, right? ”
Li Eryi was speechless for a while, he didn't think about this question, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there seemed to be something very unusual in it.
"Father-in-law, son-in-law said so, which do you think is worse than cards, mahjong or eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling?"
Li Er didn't think about it, so he blurted out. "Of course, eating, drinking, prostitution, and gambling are even worse." After speaking, he reacted again and added. "Aren't your cards and mahjong also betting?"
Li Yi coughed violently a few times, and his face was slightly red. "Hehe, don't care about these details!"
Immediately, his face turned correct.
"Father-in-law, my son-in-law thinks that the key is one sentence, full of warm thoughts!"
"Full of warm thoughts**?" Li Er thought about it, and his eyes lit up. "Haha, what a sentence full of warm thoughts**, very incisive!"
Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered that this sentence seemed to be only in the Ming Dynasty, but it was plagiarized again unconsciously!
"Well, yes, explain it in detail!"
"Yes, full of warm thoughts, that is, when you are full of food and clothing, you will have the heart of **. Man is an animal full of desires, and desires fill people's hearts all the time, thirsty and want to drink, hungry and want to eat. When you are sleepy and want to sleep, this is all desire; And people in different periods, different statuses, and different environments need completely different desires. For example, if my father-in-law thinks that my cards, mahjong, and peace will still be accepted by the people in times of war? ”
Li Er thought about it and nodded immediately. "Yes, what the people need most during the war is food, what they want is to live, people can't live, who cares about what cards and mahjong are played?"
Yes, this is a manifestation of the needs of the people, but when the people are fed and clothed, what do they need? Take the people of Chang'an as an example, since His Majesty ascended the throne, the rule of Wuchang, coupled with the promotion of the Business League and the Charity Foundation, after several years of development, the people of Chang'an have basically been lifted out of poverty, even the worst people can maintain food and clothing, and the better people will have some surplus money. ”
Li Er nodded with satisfaction, this is also where he is proud, now the six years of Zhenguan Chang'an is much better than the previous life, it is not an exaggeration to say that the current Chang'an is enough to be comparable to the eleventh year of Zhenguan in history. The country is developing so fast, it is no wonder that Li Er is unhappy.
"Haha, yes, Xuan Ling often tells me that since Qianzhuang opened a house, there are more and more people saving money, according to his preliminary estimates, at least seventy percent of the people in Chang'an have saved money in Qianzhuang, which shows the richness of the people's lives, and many of them here are the credit of the virtuous son-in-law!"
Speaking of this title, it is very strange, Li Er and Li Yi have a tacit understanding, as long as they are bullish, they are called stinky boy and Uncle Li, and when they are reconciled, they are called father-in-law and virtuous son-in-law, the meaning of which can be imagined, it can only be said that it is a boring game of two childish ghosts.
"Hehe, my father-in-law has won the prize. Now that the people of Chang'an have surplus money, then their desires will be shifted, and they used to have food and clothing, so what about now? ”
Li Er was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of thought flashed in his mind and blurted out. "Have fun!"
"Yes, it's fun! However, the kid thought it was more appropriate to call it entertainment! ”
"Entertainment? It's enough to be extremely audio-visual entertainment, and it's also a letter to Cola. Yes, this statement is appropriate. ”
"Huh? Lan Tingxu? Father-in-law, do you have an orchid pavilion? ”
If you don't read and write this sentence often, how can you react so quickly? Li Yi heard in his previous life that the last owner of Lan Tingxu was Li Er, who came here first, Li Yi was not calm, this is a national treasure, and it can't be lost anymore!
A hint of discoloration flashed in Li Er's eyes, he coughed dryly, and said seriously: "Say this, don't talk about anything else!" ”
Li Yi wanted to say more, and then thought about it, but he stubbornly held back, there is no hurry now, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future.
"Yes, the so-called entertainment is a way for people to vent their inner restlessness when they meet the basic living conditions, which is a normal phenomenon that everyone has, just like the son-in-law, who will vent when he is bored, otherwise how can there be a bar and Xiaoxiang Pavilion? However, it can be big or small, and human emotions can be guided, and they must be guided. Because if you don't get vented for a long time, you will do some irrational things, such as robbery, gambling, ** and other things, if you don't do it well, there will be a big mess, why religion is so easy to develop, is because they give the people a kind of faith, a kind of spiritual sustenance, so, the son-in-law feels that it is very important to guide the people's entertainment. ”
Li Er didn't seem to understand it, but Li Yi said it too much ahead. "What the hell are you trying to say?"
"My son-in-law thinks it's time to try the national entertainment model!"
