Chapter 300: Xiangguoji Book Club
Taoyuan Three Knots, the archetypal story in history should be in the late Southern Song Dynasty, and it will be even later to be truly perfected. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Shibalang's talk made the people of the capital full of novelty, and several entertainment companies of the three divisions made a name for themselves.
Due to the process of history, after this story came out, it was mostly carried forward by the heroes on the rivers and lakes, especially the sentence "I don't want to be born in the same year and month, but I wish to die in the same year and month", which has almost become a line that must be read when settling the righteousness. But in this era, Xu Ping specially explained to Li Shibalang that when it comes to the oath, he must focus on "working together to save the poor and help the needy; Report to the country, under An Li Shu" above. In the end, it is an official organization, and it is necessary to guide the correct three views. Don't let the heroes learn the Taoyuan Three Alliances, form brothers with different surnames, go around to rob houses and houses, and give them a banner of "righteousness" to increase cohesion.
Most of the wonderful plots in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" have already taken shape in the three points, Xu Ping rearranged the order, according to the impression of the previous life, starting from Liu, Guan, and Zhang Jieyi, they used their lives to string together these stories, and the whole story was greatly changed. Especially in the form of this kind of long-form serialization, although the technique is still rough, and the speaker is not good at using techniques such as buttons, it is better than novelty. Moreover, the tone of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" respecting Liu and degrading Cao was established from this time and passed on, and there was no contradiction in thought.
According to Li Shibalang, several yards of the three divisions were full day by day, and the city was a sensation. Li Shibalang goes everywhere every day to catch up with the scene, as long as this topic is hung out, he will not worry about not being able to sell tickets. More work and more rewards, the reward he receives now, plus the fixed monthly money and food, the income is much more than in the tile before. You must know that working under the third division is a job to ensure income in drought and flood, and there is no need to go in the wind and rain as before, which has turned his life upside down.
In this bustling and lively atmosphere, summer passed unconsciously.
Zhao Zhen's second prince is still safe, according to the convention, the royal name is given in 100 days, and the name is given according to the ranking, and I don't know where Zhao Zhen's inspiration came from. He benefited from his own initial name, not according to the ranking set by Taizu, but now it can be regarded as a change back.
After being deceived by the military and civilians once, Jingshi Bank finally became honest and slowly relieved in a few months. The roads around the capital were renovated, the road tax received began to be repaid, and Zhao Zhen began to see a large amount of money in his hand.
All kinds of good things are added together, Zhao Zhen's recent reward is very generous, and Xu Ping is anxious for him, and he doesn't spend money like this. But he didn't know that Zhao Zhen's original treasury still had a large amount of jewelry, gold and silver, which was his private money, and he didn't tell anyone.
The new policy implemented by the three divisions began to get on the right track, although Xu Ping's financial argument of spending money was still not accepted by Zhongshu, but they did not strongly oppose some major projects. The Bridge and Road Division has made a plan, and from this autumn, the official road plan connecting the main roads connecting the various roads will be officially implemented, and all the official road systems handed down from the previous dynasties will be renovated. These newly built roads are unified in accordance with the highway standards built by Xu Ping in Yongzhou that year, requiring that they can walk in large vehicles, and they must be maintained by special personnel. When these main roads are completed, the road plans to connect the states will also begin within the roads.
For the first time, Xu Ping felt that there was some atmosphere of national peace and security, and what he needed now was policy stability, so that the various new policies launched earlier could be precipitated and penetrated into all aspects of society, so that the officials and the people could feel the benefits of the new policies.
New things are always easy to arouse people's doubts, and they must be both hot and calm. New policies cannot be followed by waves, as if rushing to put out fires. That will gradually increase the unease in people's hearts and invite more and more opposition. Only by relaxing one by one, and with a degree of relaxation, can the new deal be implemented in a calm and orderly manner. The first few years are in full swing, and the next few years are consolidating and developing, Xu Ping is still young and has enough time to display his ambitions.
With the policy stable, Xu Ping's life is much easier than before, and more effort is spent on the newly established entertainment companies. Everyone has felt the benefits of the New Deal, and now we need to use the form of entertainment to let everyone know where these benefits come from. It is Xu Ping's style to do things with his head bored, but when this style needs to be changed, he still has to be able to put down his body.
In the Great Xiangguo Temple, a small courtyard next to the Zhu Yuan was rented by several companies of the three divisions. It was in this small courtyard that the first book club of the Great Song Dynasty was established. The name is very cheesy, and it is called "Xiangguoji Book Club".
In the past, there was also the name of the book club, but it was just an association between readers, and the books were exchanged, and the so-called books could not be read unless they were borrowed. The book club that has been established today has evolved from folk tile artists and specializes in producing various scripts.
Liu Sanbian was officially subordinated to the Sansi Yamen, specializing in the management of these newly established companies, and now he spends most of his day living in this small courtyard in Xiangguo Temple. While being an official of the imperial court, while living the kind of life that used to be spent before the moon, perhaps, this is the life he dreamed of.
As soon as noon passed, the autumn tiger no longer had strength, no more heat, and a cool breeze blew.
Xu Ping walked out of the Sansi Yamen, took Tan Hu and a few people, wandered along the royal street all the way, arrived at the state bridge, and turned to Xiangguo Temple.
Tian Guan was leading a few people to sit in the shade of the trees in the small courtyard, and when he saw Xu Ping coming in, he hurriedly got up and saluted.
After the ceremony, Xu Ping sat down on the stone bench under the tree and asked Tian Qian: "How has the story of three points been written recently?" β
"In reply, the story is written upside down, but a few of us read it and read it, and we always feel that there is a little less momentum."
"That's not going to work, put some more work into it, and polish it well." Xu Ping motioned for several people around him to sit down. "There's nothing important going on in the pavilion lately, you can ask your fellow scholars to help you come up with ideas. said that three points are not comparable to other stories, one is that you can't deviate too far from the historical facts, and the other is that this is about loyalty, Liu Bei doesn't care about hardships, saves the common people, and the Guan Zhang brothers share weal and woe with him, and they are born and die together. This statement is not only entertainment, but also exhorts the world, satirizing the world with loyalty. Some time ago, although Li Shibalang spoke brilliantly, he originally said that the public case was good, and after all, he was a little less colorful. You wrote the story, and let Tan Jieyuan, who is good at talking about the Golden Drum Battle Array, tell it again. When this book is erected, our companies will be able to open it, which can be regarded as a foundation. With the fundamentals, it is good to talk about other things. β
Tian was a little embarrassed: "After all, talking is just for the people to have fun, and the pavilion officials are confined to prejudices, so they are only afraidββ"
"Hey, don't just see this as the fun of the people, in this form, irony of loyalty, and leading people to goodness, is what we have to do. No matter how well the poems are written, the people can't understand them, right? Then go and get fifty yuan of money, invite the officials of the pavilion to come out in your spare time, drink and party, talk about poetry and papers, can you talk about these things when you are tired, right? Three hundred poems, the best national style, what we are doing now is what the people who collected the national style into poetry in ancient times did, is it just fun? β
Xu Ping insisted, and Tian had no choice but to agree. Xu Ping's words are reasonable, but the pavilion officials still look down on these folk forms of entertainment, which is something that cannot be helped. Now the people who follow Tian Guo to write the script are all foreign literati who have lived in the capital, and they have experienced the hardships of life, and they have long lost the spirit of the year, so of course they will do it if they give money.
Xu Ping also knows this, but the pavilion officials are the biggest force to influence public opinion, and it is of course best to be able to hold them down.
As for the reserve force of this industry, Xu Ping has already thought about it and is waiting for the opening of the department in the early spring of next year. Four years have passed since the opening of the first year of Jingyou, and this time there are only no less than 10,000 people who have gone to the capital to participate in the imperial examination. No matter how many people there are in Jinshi, it is nothing more than a few hundred, and there are nearly 10,000 people who run in vain. For many people, this back and forth burden is not light, after each palace examination because there is no money to return to the hometown, hanging from the beam, jumping into the river to commit suicide, there is never a shortage. The three divisions are good or bad here, food and shelter, or is it an official organization, and I'm afraid that no one will participate?
The literacy rate of the people in the capital is much higher than that of the local prefectures and counties, and the contribution of these Luodi literati is not small. Once this era falls, there will be no official treatment, and they can only rely on the words they know to eat and dress in the capital. Many people have fallen into the capital, and most of them are still mixed with the lower strata of society, which is different from the local capital.
There are many such people in Goolan Tile, and there is actually no shortage of reserve talents. But I have to say that that kind of place is a big dye vat, and after a few years there, people's minds can easily change. The so-called big husband can't be lewd, the poor can't be moved, the mighty can't be bent, the vast majority of people are just talking, and how many people can do it? The company opened by Sansi is an official organization, and if you promote those ideas like ordinary artists in Wazili, if you don't say how you feel, you will definitely be looked down upon by mainstream public opinion. It is inevitable to be different from ordinary tile artists, so it is necessary to introduce fresh blood and focus on ideas that can be accepted by the mainstream society. Appreciation of elegance and vulgarity is the way out for these companies in the future.
Xu Ping has no prejudice against folk artists, but he says that the public case is a stick, and it is a human meat bun at every turn, and when he sees a rich and noble person wearing gold and silver, he will kill him, and which little lady will be snatched up to be a husband and wife, this kind of content is not accepted by the mainstream society anyway. As for history, it has no sense of right and wrong at all, and is full of indiscriminate killing of innocent people and even cannibalism, and it is only a sign of success as a high-ranking official who makes a fortune, which is really not good for social thinking.
The ideological transformation of these folk arts is inevitable, otherwise these art forms can only be precipitated in the lower strata of society, until geniuses participate in them and complete the transformation from vulgar to popular.
