Chapter Twenty-Three: The First Fasting Meeting
The hunters in Luhegou understand what "registration" is, and it turns out that reporting their names to the maids of the Xu family is "signing up".
But what is uncomfortable is that "registration" still needs to pay a penny. This made the hunters a little discouraged, and they didn't buy anything from your house, so why should they pay?
However, under the temptation of 5 yuan, they still paid the "registration fee" of that penny.
Li Dazhuang did not hesitate to sign up. He counted the names on the registration book, there were one or twenty in total, and it was really challenging for him to win the title of "No. 1 Archer in Luhegou" under the competition of so many people.
"Well, let's practice five more sets of arrows tomorrow."
……
Xu Wenshan, who organized this event behind the scenes, was very busy.
I didn't expect such a simple event to almost be impossible!
An era has the limitations of an era. In Xu Wenshan's previous life, the magnitude of this kind of activity was not even the level of campus activities in the university, but it was also extremely difficult to organize.
The first is the issue of literacy. Regarding the setting of registration advertisements and registration points, he subconsciously prepared to draw a poster, but suddenly remembered: Those hunters are illiterate, so they need to find someone to read.
But he didn't have many literate people on hand. Xiaocui is a girl, her voice is too small, and Ah Fa is illiterate.
So he had to ask Ah Fa to memorize the manuscript overnight, and then take a piece of paper and pretend to be it. Fortunately, Ah Fa was clever and memorized the manuscript word for word.
Cui can read, but she has never written. Fortunately, the names of those villagers are Zhang Sansan and Li Siliu, and it is not difficult to write, so let Xiaocui practice the words for a few days, and they can be used improvised.
But in the future, governing a city and a country will be complicated, and a large number of helpers who can read and write will be needed.
In the evening, Xu Wenshan held the first "Liaozhai meeting" in the "Liao Zhai".
The participants were: Xu Wenshan, Lu Ze, Xiaocui, and A Fa.
The chair was chaired by Xu Wenshan. Spokesperson Xu Wenshan. Clerk: Xu Wenshan.
"Xiaocui, how is the registration?" Xu Wenshan asked.
"The total number of applicants for a day today is 24, including 17 hunters, 3 farmers, and 4 scoundrels." Xiao Cui said.
"Scoundrel" originally means "nothing to rely on", which refers to the landless peasants in the village, who have no source of livelihood, and spend their days idle, helping in large households when they are busy farming, and mixing around to live in their spare time.
Xu Wenshan said: "There are more hunters in Luhegou than that, and it seems that there are still hunters who are a little hesitant. ”
Seeing that Xiaocui was a little speechless, Xu Wenshan said: "If you have anything to say, please speak freely, don't hide." ”
"Young master," Xiao Cui hurriedly said, "The slave maid is rude, but there are some things that have to be said: the slave maid thinks that the reason why many hunters don't sign up is because they need to pay 1 penny...... Report...... Application fee. The slave maid thinks that this 1 penny is not painful or itchy, and it is okay not to accept it, maybe there will be more registrations. ”
Xu Wenshan shook his head and said: "My 1 penny is to cultivate their sense of payment, as long as they are willing to spend 1 penny, they are willing to spend more money, this 1 penny is just a medicine guide." I don't hold this competition for fun, nor for charity, but to expand the market of Luhegou. We don't have to expect to make money from people who don't even pay a penny. ”
Although some didn't understand, Xiaocui still felt that Xu Wenshan was inexplicably powerful.
Xiao Cui said again: "Young master, slaves and maids are brave, why does the young master want to make money from these hunters?" They don't even have a piece of land, so they're not as good as our tenants......"
Xu Wenshan smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this." ”
The choice to start with Orion was well considered.
This era is a clan society, to put it simply, a surname is a force, whoever has more family is reasonable, and there is no legal system or anything.
The surest way to dismantle the power of the clan is commercialization.
The economic basis of the clan power was agriculture. The more people in agriculture, the more output, so whoever has more family is awesome. If commerce and trade are developed, people with different surnames form a community of interests, and use the new class to fight against the old feudal landlords, the clan power will naturally be disintegrated.
The group that Xu Wenshan plans to launch the first shot of commercialization is these hunters.
There are several benefits to choosing Orion:
First, there are abundant game resources around Luhegou, and the leather produced has commercial value;
Second, most of the hunters are lonely and stragglers, which are relatively easy to control and not easy to form gangs;
Third, the Orions are relatively combative, and can prepare for armed conflicts with clan forces in the future.
These reasons are enough for Xu Wenshan to work this group of hunters.
After this topic passed, Xu Wenshan asked again: "Ah Fa, how are you learning in the literacy course?" ”
Ah Fa was stunned, he thought that what he wanted to ask him was how the propaganda effect was, and he played a lot of drafts there, thinking about how to brag about how he was in danger and how to turn the tide, but he didn't expect Xu Wenshan to ask him this.
"Uh...... Literacy is still more difficult, but ...... I'm trying, trying to ......"
Xu Wenshan sneered and said, "I won't say more, just mention it to you, if you can listen to me now and learn to read and write hard, your future achievements will definitely exceed your current imagination." But if you miss this opportunity, you can only envy your companions in the future, and you yourself will be unknown. ”
Ah Fa was stunned and speechless. "The companion of the year Fei Huang Tengda", is it Xiao Cui? He looked at Xiao Cui and found that the other party's expression was indifferent.
But a maid, how can she soar?
Ah Fa opened his mouth in a daze, and the process of the meeting was almost over.
In the future, there will be more and more such debriefing meetings, and it is recommended that Xiaocui learn to write as soon as possible. Alright, adjournment! ”
When Cui walked out the door, it was already pitch black outside. Since following the young master of the Xu family, the candle has always been used very quickly.
But I have a wonderful feeling that I am growing. This is a feeling that I couldn't experience in Xu Mansion before.
"Soaring...... Is it? Xiao Cui said softly.
What will become of you after you soar?
Will he become the emperor's maid?
