Chapter 88: Chinese New Year's Eve (Part I)
After Wang Yun subdued Ou Metallurgy, in fact, there was no change in Yuncun. Although Ou Metallurgy's ability is very extraordinary, just as it is difficult for a clever woman to be urged without rice, he can't conjure up materials to make weapons and armor out of thin air. As for prospecting, Wang Yun naturally let him do it, but it is obvious that the system has given players a very preferential treatment, but it has not supplied players with ore veins.
Wang Yun was helpless, there were senior blacksmiths in the village but they couldn't improve the soldiers' weapons, which really made him a little depressed. But this is not the most depressing thing for him, the most depressing thing for him is that after another four weeks, the bandits actually did not refresh! According to Wang Yun's guess, the bandits who should be refreshed this time include more than eighty soldiers and a second-order general, but they have not appeared now, how can they not make Wang Yun uncomfortable!
But even if he is depressed, he is helpless, after all, he is not the designer of the game, nor is he a system, and he has no idea what hidden settings this copy has. And the experience of the players before he entered the dungeon was completely useless to him, and he had already reaped a lot of benefits from the experience he had gained. Now he has only been in the game for more than 50 days, but Yuncun already has nearly 3,500 residents, which is too much compared to most player villages, not to mention that he still has more than a week to recruit homeless, and now Yuncun has more than 80 homeless people joining every day! He subdued three waves of bandits who attacked Yun Village, these things were completely unimaginable to ordinary players, and their experience was certainly no longer suitable for Wang Yun.
If the bandits didn't refresh, they naturally disrupted Wang Yun's plan, and he had been a little idle in the past few days.
The recruitment and arrangement of the displaced people were arranged by Xu Zhen. Speaking of Xu Zhen, he has been a lot more restrained recently, in addition to doing his own essential work, he no longer looks for all kinds of things, probably Wang Yun has not given him the position of deputy village head, and he finally understands Wang Yun's thoughts.
The training and patrol arrangements of the soldiers have Jiao Yu, although Yuncun has subdued a first-order military general 'Zhang He', but he seems to understand his position, and he did not have trouble with Jiao Yu, but cooperated with Jiao Yu everywhere, making it much more convenient for Jiao Yu to train these soldiers from bandits, and even Wang Yun had a good feeling about this 'Zhang He', so he directly appointed him as Jiao Yu's deputy. Jiao Yu is worthy of being a military training talent with the special surname of 'elite soldiers', although these soldiers are not the pikemen he is best at, but sword soldiers, but under his training, these sword soldiers have gradually become more advanced and retreating, and their cooperation is rigorous. It's only been a few days, and these swords and soldiers haven't gone through much actual combat, but Wang Yun feels that their cooperation is completely comparable to those soldiers trained by Zeng Hong in Yunzhai! Zeng Hong is also a talent for military training, and he can be compared with Jiao Yu and make a judgment. If there is a different world for training soldiers in this dungeon, Wang Yun believes that now these sword soldiers can grow into elites in a short period of time! Wang Yun is also self-aware, knowing that he is not good at training troops at all, so he naturally does not interfere.
Originally, Wang Yun handed them over to Xu Zhen to manage, but now with Ou Metallurgy, although he is a blacksmith, he obviously still has some experience in the management of these shops, and Wang Yun also handed them over to him to manage. Not to mention, Ou Metallurgical is worthy of coming from a big city (family in Luoyang), and the work and rest time, fees, and taxes of these shops are well organized, and these professionals and villagers are very satisfied. It's a lot stronger than when Xu Zhen was a layman!
There are also villagers who cultivate and build (there are often displaced people joining, so the number of houses has been increasing), and there is no need for Wang Yun to pay special attention, Wang Yun has already distributed all the land in the village according to the contribution, except for paying 20% of the tax, the harvest is all their own, and they will naturally cultivate the land themselves.
Originally, in the past few days, Wang Yun was going to move his hands and feet to subdue them after the robbers refreshed, but he didn't expect the bandits to appear. Although he practiced guns and read books every day, but after all, it was a little boring, and now the opportunity to move a little bit was suddenly gone, and his heart was like being scratched twice by the claws of a chicken, which was particularly itchy, and he wanted to calm down and read but couldn't calm down.
In a state of confusion, he couldn't help but think of Shi Shi, if Shi Shi was here, he would definitely be able to calm him down. Thinking of Shi Shi, naturally I will also think of the clever and naughty Liu Ling and the cold but fiery Wu Shuang, this one doesn't matter, Wang Yun sat on the chair, and didn't think about anything else, thinking about the happiness of being with the third girl, a little crazy! Then, after thinking about it carefully, it turned out that he hadn't seen the third girl for nearly two months, and he really missed it very much! I don't know what they're doing now
When Wang Yun was thinking about it in his heart, there was a joy in Yunzhai, not only Yunzhai, but almost the entire area controlled by the Han Dynasty was in a festive mood!
If you want to ask why, it is naturally because today is 'Chinese New Year's Eve'! The so-called 'Chinese New Year's Eve' is the day before the new year, and from this day onwards, it is considered the New Year! Chinese New Year is not a trivial matter, especially the more ancient it is, the more important the surname of this matter is. Because the New Year is to worship the ancestors! This is an extremely grand thing for a family, and even in some families, the qualifications to worship ancestors are required, if the status in the family is not enough, you want to worship the ancestors, then I'm sorry, you are not qualified! Ancestor worship can even be said to be the most important event in the family era, and the ancestor worship ceremony will summarize the merits and demerits of the family members this year, as well as the arrangements for him in the coming year, these are all things related to the fate of this person!
In ancient times, ancestors were the existence of gods and ancestors, and a person who did not respect his ancestors was completely looked down upon, so worshipping ancestors was extremely grand, and the merits and demerits in front of the ancestors were settled, and the job arrangement was countless times stronger than the usual effectiveness! Among the families, the significance of ancestor worship is naturally great, and even the New Year is also important. And with the passage of time, there are fewer and fewer families, and ancestor worship has become a form of mass entertainment, and the important surname of the New Year has gradually faded, and even eventually evolved into an ordinary festival! Only some families with extremely deep heritage still regard the New Year festival as extremely important, and the grand ancestor worship ceremony is a symbol that distinguishes them from ordinary families. As for whether or not they really respect their ancestors, it doesn't matter to modern people.
Players are living in modern times, and they don't look at the New Year very lightly, after all, for most modern people, the New Year is just a reunion dinner, and the family chats and talks together. However, now that human beings have entered the era of robot work, human beings are basically sitting back and enjoying their success, living in the virtual world all day long, and the family is almost not separated, and the role of this reunion dinner can be imagined. For them, the New Year is not even as important as the imported 'Valentine's Day' and 'Christmas', because these festivals can also have fun with their sisters, and the New Year is over, it is necessary to be with the family.
However, now this "Second World" is different, in the Chinese region, it is in the Three Kingdoms era, it is the time when the development of the family is the most vigorous, even in a small county, maybe there are still a few families that are considered wealthy, and the clansmen are dozens or hundreds, and their grandeur during the New Year is something that players have never seen! The ordinary villagers among the aborigines are also very reverent of their ancestors and gods, and they will naturally worship and celebrate their ancestors.
Therefore, on the day of the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the entire "Second World" Chinese area was sensational, everywhere there were firecrackers (non-firecrackers, there is no such thing as gunpowder in the game, it is a special kind of bamboo, after ignition, it will make a roaring sound, similar to the sound of firecrackers), adults and children are also sticking Spring Festival couplets, hanging lanterns, cooking Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and welcoming the returning slightly later family. There are children running and jumping in the snow together, old people chatting around the campfire, and young people reminiscing and comparing together. In short, there is peace and festivity everywhere!
In this atmosphere, players can't help but be affected! Yes, there are a lot of players, but there are even more aborigines in Second World! Everything is about an atmosphere, and now every city and every village is celebrating, and players love to be lively and have fun more than the aborigines, so they naturally don't mind joining in. This makes it even more lively! Players don't have any roots in the game, they don't even have a home, and they want to celebrate the New Year after they get the news that they are infected, what should they do? Naturally, more players will get together, and the more people there will be, the more the atmosphere of celebration will be reflected! Therefore, the markets and squares of various big cities have gathered a large number of players, and they also want to celebrate the New Year!
It's just that they are different from the aborigines, who have a fixed place of residence, and they naturally live in their own homes during the new year. The players don't have it, but the players don't care, anyway, it's a vigil, it's better for everyone to keep watch together, a city directly gathers thousands of players, these players not only have scribes and generals, of course, there are all kinds of life professionals, most of them are people who are not interested in fighting for hegemony, they get together, and directly regard the city's square as their home. If you have a chef profession, you just set up the pot, set up the tables and chairs, and beckon the players to taste their own craft; There is also a carpenter profession, who made a chair and stool next to it and gave it to the players.
Of course, most of the young and middle-aged people still chose the profession of scribe or military general, they are more enthusiastic, so many players get together, naturally there will be some conflicts, of course, they also know what is today, so even if there is a conflict, they are more restrained, but it does not mean that nothing happened. Several rings are set up among the players, allowing players to resolve disputes and compete in martial arts, which can also add a lot of interest to players. After all, this kind of thing has been loved by people since ancient times!
Players are indeed more arrogant than the aborigines, and large-scale gatherings of tens of thousands of people are very rare among the aborigines, but everywhere in the Han Dynasty, there are really a lot of player celebrations of this scale. They celebrate and play together to make this new year even more jubilant!
However, where there is excitement, there is loneliness
