Chapter 114: Sects
"Cousin Lei, this is the document you want."
Xiao Tianlei returned to the headquarters of the Brotherhood in Lingzhou City, and asked Qin Yue to bring a document, the content of which was the entry and exit records of the new relatives of the Xiao family and some of their actions, among these relatives, in addition to some who wanted to be polished, of course, there were some ulterior motives, roughly that some people or forces wanted to mix sand with the Brotherhood through kinship, explore the secrets of the Brotherhood, and even meddle in the affairs of the Brotherhood, otherwise, Xiao Qinghe, who was in the territory of Great Xia, could they easily run to Lingzhou?
However, these people are really naΓ―ve, thinking that if they insert a few people, they can find out what the brotherhood will be, but unfortunately what they got is some waste materials, if it is really a useful talent, Xiao Tianlei doesn't mind accepting it. Xiao Tianlei is confident that under the current system within the Brotherhood, no one can play any tricks.
While reading the documents, Xiao Tianlei asked casually: "Xiaoyue, have you changed jobs, are you still used to it?" "A while ago, Xiao Tianlei arranged for Qin Yue to transfer to the intelligence department.
"Hmm...... OK. Qin Yue replied, unconsciously straightening up, as if she was being questioned by an instructor during training.
Qin Yue was able to become an intelligence officer of the Brotherhood, not because Xiao Tianlei said a word that made her simply change departments, but after a series of strict training and assessments, Qin Yue felt uneasy every time she recalled those courses and exams, because she was a transfer student and did not learn some basic courses, she put in more effort than others. She didn't get any preferential treatment because she was a transfer student, she was almost brushed off several times, and only she knew the hardships, during this period, Qin Yue hated Xiao Tianlei to death, she remembered that day, Xiao Tianlei smiled and told her to arrange a suitable job for her, she thought it was a good thing at the time, and then she was sent to a place for training, that kind of day was simply dark, and she never wanted to experience it again.
Even so, Qin Yue still felt that all the hard work seemed to be worth it, the intelligence department of the Brotherhood was really amazing, after receiving those trainings, her vision changed dramatically, how could she feel that people in the world seemed to be fools, everything in the world could not be hidden from herself, of course, this is just an illusion, if you want to obtain intelligence, you must have corresponding information and clues, learn to analyze all kinds of information and data, and guess all kinds of possibilities, Qin Yue is still in the internship stage, in her eyes, The Brotherhood was still a fog, and she couldn't read some encrypted documents, documents written in special characters.
Training also includes the training of martial arts, in a short period of training, Qin Yue's martial arts have also made great progress, she used to practice hard every day, thinking that as long as she practiced hard, one day she would make great progress in martial arts and become a real master, but after receiving training, Qin Yue found that she used to practice martial arts so much, it was completely stupid practice, wasting time and experience, she learned some principles of martial arts, it is not necessarily how advanced it is, but after learning these simple principles, many problems in martial arts are solved. She finally understood why Xiao Tianlei and the others were so powerful, and they could practice hard for ten days, a hundred days, or even a year in one day, could they be amazing?
It's just that Qin Yue is also a little distressed, now she is an intelligence officer of the brotherhood, and she must abide by some regulations, especially the confidentiality regulations, and the information she comes into contact with at work cannot be said even by her parents and family, but her mother always asks about some things about the brotherhood, and Qin Yue began to lie to her mother, and she was worried.
No matter what, Qin Yue likes her current job very much, and besides, she really wants to know one thing, what does Xiao Tianlei think of herself? Will it be like I look at other ordinary people now, like I look at fools?
Of course, Xiao Tianlei didn't treat Qin Yue as a fool, but Xiao Tianlei wanted to see and try some of the ideas within the Brotherhood, how much brainwashing and assimilation ability of outsiders can be, and can a person completely identify with the Brotherhood?
In fact, there are many people like Qin Yue, most of them are some peripheral members of the brotherhood, and they have received the same training, if they fully identify with the brotherhood, they may be able to become internal members of the brotherhood, but they are born in the world, not alone, and there are parents and relatives, affected by various influences, in the face of many choices, what kind of results will there be, it depends on their own choices.
The success of this matter will naturally have an impact on the development of the Brotherhood in the future, but, no matter how big it is, it may not be, Xiao Tianlei still believes in the perfect system, rather than hoping to believe in personal loyalty, as long as the Brotherhood is strong, whether it agrees or not, you have to work for the Brotherhood honestly, the relationship between the Brotherhood and them is like the company and employees, of course, there are differences, Xiao Tianlei is fully capable of forcing these people to work for themselves, just like those hard labors, what to do, Xiao Tianlei is also groping, What kind of choice they make, Xiao Tianlei also makes a choice that is beneficial to himself.
The internal construction of the brotherhood and the cohesion of people's hearts have to be taken slowly, but under the promotion of Xiao Tianlei, Lingzhou is changing every day, and some new things are emerging from time to time.
In many things, Xiao Tianlei is copying the precedent of his previous life, as for why he did this, what are the benefits of doing it, he does not necessarily know, for example, coinage, Xiao Tianlei knows that coinage is related to the economic lifeline of a country, and coinage is very profitable, although he doesn't understand the specifics, and he doesn't know how coinage makes money, he still keeps people trying, minting coins that belong to Lingzhou. The original gold and silver currency, silver and gold, were cut and weighed, which was very troublesome.
In a workshop on the edge of the Crocodile River, several large waterwheels rotate under the impetus of the Crocodile River current, converting the power of the water flow into power, several machinery in the workshop are running, accompanied by a deafening roar, a piece of gold plate, silver plate, copper plate is pressed out of gold coins, silver coins, copper coins. The shiny coins are pleasing at a glance, Xiao Tianlei grabbed a handful and sprinkled it, making a jingling crisp sound, which is very pleasant. In addition to the numbers, there are also some animal patterns on these coins, including the heads of animals such as steel mane, thunder, and snow ape Nunu, and Xiao Tianlei doesn't like his own heads printed on coins.
These few simple minting machines, embodies the efforts of many craftsmen, in addition to the original Shanyue craftsmen, there are also some craftsmen recruited later, the brotherhood will carry out the process of trade, will also buy some craftsmen from all over the country, the status of craftsmen is not high, most of them as slaves, can be bought and sold at will, however, these craftsmen generally specialize in a certain craft, exquisite skills, originally they made some utensils for the enjoyment of officials and nobles, highlighting their status, to Lingzhou, they have different jobs, some of the skills they have mastered, become the nourishment for progressto promote the improvement and upgrading of some technologies.
From the original woodworking lathes to the current hydraulic lathes, the craftsmen under the Brotherhood have been able to make more precise and standardized parts, design some more precise machinery, and carry out mass industrial production, such as those tricycles and some agricultural and military equipment on the streets. Xiao Tianlei did not copy some of the things in his previous life, after all, it is now in the initial stage, the world is different, and he needs to try boldly, Xiao Tianlei let go of the craftsmen to do it, and he did not hesitate to invest, and the craftsmen made some weird machines, not to mention, although they look strange, some of them are very easy to use, and there are some inspirations that cannot be used.
The feudal dynasty has a variety of rules, in order to highlight the identity of those people in the upper class, for the people's clothing color, hairstyle, have strict requirements, now the Lingzhou Brotherhood is in power, completely let go of these restrictions, not to mention others, people's clothing changes greatly, the types of colors and styles are more, but also because of the change of materials for making clothes, the original clothing materials have poor warmth, some nobles often have to wear seven or eight layers of clothes, and people have to serve them when they dress and undress, otherwise a person will not be able to do it. Nowadays, there are several more materials in Lingzhou's fabrics, such as Rongzhou's wool, cashmere, rabbit hair, etc., which are warm and comfortable, and there is no need to wear so thick at all. In terms of style, Xiao Tianlei likes simple styles, and has mastered Lingzhou, so he naturally wears whatever he wants, and made some clothes, and other brothers followed suit, which gradually became the trend in Lingzhou.
As long as the restrictions on the people are relaxed, they will exert amazing creativity and make some unexpected things, just in terms of food, there are many more tricks in Lingzhou now, and Lingzhou has even formed a food street, specializing in all kinds of snacks, and it is open until very late, some of the taste of Xiao Tianlei's night market in his previous life.
"Leader, someone who claims to be Xuanzong is asking to see you."
As soon as he returned to the headquarters of Pudu Temple from the mint, Xiao Tianlei received this report, according to Xiao Tianlei's thoughts, the people of Xuanzong should be some craftsmen engaged in casting and machinery, who have mastered the "high technology" of this world, Xiao Tianlei is naturally interested, but, what is the purpose of their coming?
When a cadre of Xuanzong was brought in, Xiao Tianlei took a look, several men and women, old, middle-aged and young, were basically dressed as martial artists in the rivers and lakes, and an old man looked like a craftsman.
"You're the leader of the Brotherhood?" Before Xiao Tianlei could speak, one of the middle-aged men looked Xiao Tianlei up and down, and took the lead in speaking, his tone arrogant.
Xiao Tianlei was still wondering if he could talk to Xuanzong about cooperation or employment, but when he heard the attitude of the middle-aged man, he immediately felt a little unhappy.
"What is the matter with my brother?" Although he was unhappy, Xiao Tianlei still maintained a more polite tone.
"Rude! When I see my elders, I don't know any etiquette! The middle-aged man said very unhappily.
Xiao Tianlei is a little inexplicable, elder? Where did the elders come from? Moreover, the other party owed such a beating tone, as if the brotherhood owed him a lot, what to do?
"We have all heard about your brotherhood, acting fiercely and domineeringly, doing evil, and killing the people, what is the reason for you to act like this?!" The middle-aged man questioned.
"We don't need you outsiders to take care of the affairs of our brotherhood!" Xiao Tianlei also lost his temper and said coldly.
The middle-aged man frowned and said, "Outsiders...... Aren't you my disciples of Xuanzong?! β
"Of course not!" Xiao Tianlei flatly denied it.
The middle-aged man groaned and said, "In this case, we have nothing to say to you, take us to meet my Xuanzong disciple!" β
Xiao Tianlei roughly understood, the people who felt these Xuanzong thought that there were people from their Xuanzong in the Brotherhood, these guys were really self-righteous, and they couldn't be angry with this kind of person, so he said lightly: "You guys are wrong again, our Brotherhood doesn't have people from your Xuanzong." β
"No, you dare to say that those organs on the street are not from the hands of the Xuanzong Sect!" The middle-aged man didn't believe it, according to what they had seen and heard along the way, some fresh machinery, tricycles, and machinery in the workshop had emerged on the streets of Lingzhou, except for the disciples of Xuanzong, no one else could do it.
"It's really not, you don't think that without your Xuanzong, there would be no machinery in the world, except for the people of your Xuanzong, no one else would be able to build machinery, right?!" Xiao Tianlei asked rhetorically, isn't it just to master some forging and mechanism techniques, which is very remarkable, as if it was two hundred and fifty or eighty thousand.
Xuanzong's middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, Xiao Tianlei denied that the Brotherhood would have Xuanzong's disciples, whether it was true or not, but his words were extremely disrespectful to Xuanzong, and the rest of the people who came also showed displeasure.
"Alright, since my brotherhood doesn't have the person you're looking for, you can get out! If you don't, I can help you! Xiao Tianlei opened his mouth directly to drive people away, his tone was not good, and there was a sense of provocation.
Immediately, those people were indignant, especially the young ones, holding the hilt of the sword, and they had the posture of immediately drawing their swords and fighting Xiao Tianlei desperately.
Xiao Tianlei is here, as long as these people dare to do it, he wants them to know why the flowers are so red!
"Don't be reckless! Let's go! Disturbed! At this moment, the old man suddenly said, and the rest of the people immediately reined in and followed the old man away.
Sure enough, people are old and refined, if it weren't for this old man's words, these people wouldn't have thought about it today, but Xiao Tianlei's mood was very bad, and he originally thought about it beautifully, if there was Xuanzong's technology, he might be able to save a lot of development time and break through some technical bottlenecks, but Xuanzong's people are obviously not all the way with the Brotherhood, forget it! Xiao Tianlei can also let go, there is no Zhang butcher, can he only eat hairy pigs? Without him Xuanzong, wouldn't his family have developed to this day? What good can those people, except for the old man, who are like craftsmen?
The next day, the doorman came to report again, saying that someone from Fazong asked to see, for Fazong, Fazong's impression is to change the law, and there have been many changes in history to change the law, and the law has changed the country, but most of the failures are successful, and the rich country and strong army are basically to meet the needs of the rulers and maintain the rule, which is no longer a legal system.
It is conceivable that the people who have seen the Fa Sect are nothing more than bullshit, and they can't say that they are here to pretend to be masters and point fingers, Xiao Tianlei doesn't want to see these people pretending to be forced there, he is too lazy to talk nonsense with them, he doesn't care what his sect is, he blows it all over the sky, and he is not a dog for people, a certain great man in his previous life said it well, the gun is out of power, these academics, the current system of the brotherhood, can't be used at all, of course I don't see it!
Xiao Tianlei ordered, no matter what sectarian figures come to the door, they will not be seen, with the knowledge and insight of the previous life, even if Xiao Tianlei knows a little about many things, at least he can draw a gourd according to the scoop, besides, he is not brainless, and there is a group of brothers who can find a way together, and they can solve any problems they encounter, and they don't need others to teach.
According to Xiao Tianlei's plan in his heart, the brotherhood will develop and grow in the future, and talents are indispensable, but he does not plan to recruit talents and seek talents. There are some fundamental cognitive differences, with the current system of the Brotherhood, those people are mixed in, not only is it useless, it may cause chaos, and whether these people are credible or not is still two words, so, for themselves, these people are not talents, it seems that they still cultivate talents by themselves, although it is a little slower, but it is also more reliable and reliable.
Outside the gate of Pudu Temple, a cadre of the Fa Sect and others originally thought that the leader of the Brotherhood would personally go out to greet them when they heard their name, and they all tidied up their clothes and put on a posture of a celebrity, but after waiting for a while, the guards replied that the leader was missing, and there was nothing else, no matter what they said, and they kept the people out of the door.
"This brother is so rude!" A Fazong scribe said angrily.
"That's it, not seeing us is their lost opportunity, we can't be angry about this, and we have lost our grace!"
"The actions of the Brotherhood should indeed be from the Fa Sect, but why snub us? Could it be that someone is secretly doing evil, afraid that we will take their place? β
"So it's very likely!"
"Although there are many laws and regulations made by the brotherhood, there are also some merits, but there are also many mistakes and omissions, I wanted to give some advice, since I don't know what to do, I don't have to bother."
β¦β¦
Entering the territory of Lingzhou, these people of Fazong seem to have come to a completely different country, just enter Lingzhou, you can see a stone tablet, the stone tablet is engraved with some regulations, the soldiers on the side, are responsible for preaching the content of the stone tablet, there are some regulations in the villages along the way, to Lingzhou City, there are all kinds of regulations everywhere, some wooden signs on the street say "no spitting, offenders are fined" and so on. In the eyes of these Fazong scribes, the laws of Lingzhou, many regulations and regulations, are woven into a tight net, allowing everyone to do things according to certain rules of behavior, which is outrageously strict.
As scribes who studied the Dharma, they were well versed in the law, and naturally had a lot of different opinions on these regulations of the Brotherhood.
Originally, Xie Jinan and Zhou Shizhi were in Zhushan Academy, pulling up a group of people to study the system implemented by the Brotherhood, exchanging opinions, and arguing all day long, but they wanted to find the masters of the Brotherhood to seek advice and debate, and some people came to the door to ask for a meeting, but the problem was that the Brotherhood did not care at all.
For the Brotherhood, they really don't understand, the Brotherhood is not like a general rebellion at all, it doesn't expand its territory, it doesn't know how to recruit talents, what does it want to do, just want to occupy a piece of territory and dominate it? The Brotherhood defeated the imperial army several times, all of which had elements of tricks, they didn't think that the Brotherhood could really fight against the Imperial Court, what did the Brotherhood want to do?
No one knows, even people within the Brotherhood don't know, Xie Jin'an's granddaughter, Xie Ya joined the Brotherhood Art Troupe, so what? I can only do things according to the rules of the art troupe, and every day is rehearsals, singing, dancing, and I can't know anything else about the brotherhood.
In fact, a cadre of Xuanzong also arrived here, and there were some other sects and schools, and the celebrities of each school expressed their opinions and argued endlessly, from the system of some dynasties in history to some systems of Daxia, and then to the various brothers.
However, these celebrities did not patronize the arguments, they also paid attention to the information of Great Xia, here are some smart people, how can you not see that Great Xia has reached a critical moment, Zoroastrian rebellion, swept several states, could it be another harbinger of troubled times, a change of dynasty?
If the troubled times are coming, it will inevitably be a disaster for the lives and the people to be displaced, but it is also a generation of heroes, a group of heroes are competing, some families are perishing, some families are rising, and some hidden sects will also be born.
