Time flies, and it's the next day in a blink of an eye!

The genius is bright, "every grain of corn contains the blood and sweat of farmers", and the big red banners of "cherishing grain, everyone is responsible" were pulled up in Chaojiazhuang and Liangshan, and the call for saving grain quickly spread everywhere. You can't eat hard, you can't waste it deliberately, and you can't throw it away indiscriminately.

Anyone wastes a grain of grain, and the big boss will let him eat a bowl of gnocchi. It frightened restaurants and restaurants all over the city to erect "save food" signs. Even the ordinary people consciously obeyed the commands.

The initiative to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and collect wild vegetables has been implemented in the two cities. Most of the big bosses behind the scenes of restaurants and restaurants in the city are Chao Gai. With the new regulations, customers need to do what they can when they order food, and if they can't finish eating, they will see the proportion of shares and money, and the disc will be discounted, and they will resolutely put an end to wasteful behavior.

The soldiers of the Chao family army trained in the field and dug wild vegetables became a competition, and the navy army had more fishing tasks. Which team loses and is responsible for burying the pot to make rice......

Hired workers can also dig wild vegetables and collect herbs outside during their shifts, which Chaojiazhuang will purchase at a suitable price. Even those naughty children took dustpans in groups, picked up mussels and snails by the lake, fished and caught shrimp, or harvested forage, and sold them to the Chaofu purchasing station to subsidize their families.

As early as after yesterday's meeting, when Wu Yong explained the practical use of carrier pigeons to Xu Guanzhong, he had already flown pigeons to Bianliang City. Inform the general person in charge there, Zhu Fu, to contact the eunuch as soon as possible to buy grain.

After the false appearance and news of this lack of grain spread, the surrounding wealthy families took out the grain hoarding and sold, and the caravans from all over the country also collected grain and materials and transported them to Chaojiazhuang.

Chao Gai's orders are as many as possible, or buy or barter.

In short, Chaojiazhuang has entered the stage of hoarding grain from this moment on!

Compared with Chaojiazhuang, it set off a craze for hoarding grain, and secretly recruited troops and horses. Caravans from all over Chaojiazhuang flocked to the city, just like usual.

The slogan of "suppressing bandits and guarding the homeland" in the city is still there, and the Jinsha River wharf shouts that it will kill the sky. Chaojiazhuang's guards are strictly drilled, and the sword is pointed at Shuibo Liangshan.

Chaojiazhuang tried his best to prepare for war with Liangshan at any time.

This is what the people of the surrounding ten miles and eight towns and neighboring states and counties unanimously believe. It's just that where could they imagine that there was a party in Liangshan.

"Tell me out loud, what are your beliefs?"

On the blackboard wall of the Liangshan Lecture Hall, this line was written with white chalk.

Faith is also the core idea of Chao Gai's lecture!

After learning the news that Chao Tianwang, the general office of the Lecture Martial Arts Hall, was going to give a lecture, whether it was a field army or a garrison army, the officers at the command and envoy level arranged affairs in advance, and as long as they could get out of the way, they quietly came to Liangshan to gather.

It doesn't matter if you don't collect, this collection is incredible.

Okay! The cavalry Du Bao 2nd Army, the Navy Ruan Xiao 2nd Army, the Ruan Xiao 52nd Army, Fei Bao half of the army did not arrive, and the battalion commanders at the command level were piled up.

Not to mention that there are seventy or eighty, there were not many opportunities to meet in the past, but now they are all shocked, everyone sighs that the Chao family is full of talents, and it is really not good if you don't work hard, others are promoted and rich, but you can only stare dryly.

In addition to these battalion-level officers, the commanders of the various armies and their deputies came one after another. Except for those who sit everywhere and those who have not returned, arrange things almost together.

Each led the officers of his own army and sat down in the newly built lecture hall. It's like an area for each station as if it's been agreed, and it's easy to identify. The three armies of water, infantry, and horses, as well as the commanders and officers of the restaurant, are clearly distinguished.

Directly in front of everyone's eyes was a podium about a foot high. There are guest seats on the left and right near the podium, Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui, Wen Huanzhang, Li Zhu, Xu Guanzhong, Zhu Dunru, and everyone has pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of them. On the right are Yelu Zonglin, Han Shizhong, Guo Sheng, Han Yong, and Taishan sitting.

It's like a court-like civil and military standing!

"Hehehe, all of you are here, Chao is not late, right?" At this time, a literati wearing a soap-trimmed purple robe and a scarf appeared at the door with a smile. This person has a knife-like face with a resolute face, upright facial features, a square face and thick eyebrows, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, burly as an iron tower, with short cheeks, and a gentle smile on his face.

"Hahaha, lord, we came early." The five military advisors in the lecture hall were the first to stand.

Then, more than 100 people got up in unison and waved to Chao Gai. Said things like "Brother, it's not too late", "We've just arrived".

"Sit down, sit down!" Chao Gai nodded to everyone and waved. Then he strode to the podium, and behind him Li Qingwan, Yelu Tali, Li Shishi, and Hu Sanniang followed hand in two, looking around in surprise. Before everyone sat down, they shouted at the women that Mrs. was good.

Li Qingwan, Master Li performed the Ten Thousand Blessing Ceremony, Hu Sanniang, Yelu Tali carried a sword on his back, dressed in a military uniform, draped all over his body, and saluted everyone with fists.

Then a woman came to an area. Behind him, more than a dozen heroic female officers sat down, which attracted the eyes of many men.

Chao Gai nodded with satisfaction when he saw this scene, like Liangshan in the past, he was not close to women and did not get married, that was short-sighted, and he could not become a big climate.

It's just that his brows couldn't help frowning when he glanced at the more than 100 people below. Serious drawbacks were discovered, and the number of commanders in each army turned out to be about the same as the officers below. Female battalions of less than 5,000 have more than 10 commanders and battalion commanders. There are only more than seventy officers in the army of eighty or ninety thousand, how can this work?

This phenomenon will not only make the commander of the army busy, but also not have enough control over the army, which is a taboo for soldiers and is absolutely undesirable.

Chao Gai noticed this disadvantage, but did not say much about the current occasion. first made a self-ashamed opening remarks, and then made a circle: "Ladies and gentlemen, Chao, as the general office of the martial arts hall, is busy with affairs and has few appearances. ”

Several military advisors and Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and others stood up again and said that their brother was serious, and dozens of officers followed suit, and the martial arts hall was very lively.

"Okay, brothers, today's class is about ......" Chao Gai was humble with everyone for a while, waved his hand downward, and when he was quiet, he picked up the stick and pointed to a sentence written in advance on the blackboard wall.

At this moment, a noisy shout came from outside the lecture hall: "Wait, brother. ”

Immediately afterwards, the third battalion of the infantry Bian Xiang, this strong man from the north ran over with the deputy general Xue Yong and all the officers panting, and rushed to Chao Gai Lizheng: "Report, the third battalion of the infantry has rushed back to the big capital and is here to restore the order." At the same time, I entered Puzhou last night, got the news, and hurried to listen to the class. ”

Chao Gai was prepared for this lecture, and he had already ordered people to record the key points throughout the whole process, and wait for those leaders who did not return to hand them over to them and open a small stove.

However, Bian Xiang led the team to rush back so actively, which also boosted morale. He put down his stick and strode down to the podium, patting the strong man on the shoulder: "Okay, welcome, welcome, General Bian please take people to a seat." ”

In the lecture hall, several military advisors and many commanders waved and greeted each other.

When the lecture hall was quiet again, Chao Gai walked up to the podium, pointed to the blackboard and asked in a deep voice, "Brothers, tell me what your beliefs are?" Perhaps many people do not understand, what does faith really represent? Beliefs, beliefs that are or will become facts, judgments, opinions or opinions about things, in fact, each person's thoughts are very different. ”

Beliefs, representing views or opinions?

Wu Yong, Xiao Jiasui and several other military advisors on the left raised their eyebrows, savoring Chao Gai's words. It's as if I've caught something, but it's a little vague.

"Sect Leader Lin, who is your enemy?" Chao Gai looked at Lin Chong in the audience.

Lin Chong got up and gritted his teeth and said: "Lin Chong was originally the head of the 800,000 forbidden army in Tokyo, and he never provoked right and wrong when he was kind to others, but he almost ended up in life and death, and he had hatred in his heart and wanted to kill Gao Yu's guy. ”

"Teacher Xu, what about you?" Chao Gai asked Lin Chong to sit down and asked Xu Ning again.

"Xu's situation is similar to that of Lin Jiaotou, both of whom were framed and fled from Tokyo. But I have two enemies, Cai Jing, a high-ranking dog thief. ”

"Well, the two teachers have revenge, which also represents a kind of faith." Chao Gai motioned for Xu Ning to sit down, and then shook his head with a serious face: "But in my opinion, this is just a small target, and after stabbing the enemy, I will be at a loss and will be melancholy." It is necessary to find something new to lift the spirits.

And that's what I mean by faith! As long as there is faith, there is persistence. You will be motivated to do something, to achieve what you want. Why not set a big goal and become your own belief support. Let yourself always be in a state of struggle and fight for your ideals. ”

As soon as Chao Gai's words fell, someone behind the infantry seat raised his hand and suddenly lowered it. It's just that in Chao Gai's smile and nod, a young man in his twenties got up: "Report, can I ask, brother, do you have faith?" ”

Lu Zhishen, Yuan Lang, Bian Xiang and others heard a voice behind them, and turned around one after another, making this young man's body tremble, and his laughter was more ugly than crying.

"The classroom is all about talking!" Chao Gai waved at everyone, and then looked at the young man and motioned to sit down: "You ask me if I have faith, of course I have!" I have a lot of faith! It's like the time when I woke up more than half a year ago. I suddenly feel that it is wrong not to be close to women and be a good man. If everyone is a good man, and everyone doesn't get married, won't people perish? ”

The final inquiry was a soul torture, causing everyone to nod their heads again and again. Lu Zhishen also saw Chao Gai's eyes looking at him, and he was puzzled for a moment, and suddenly thought that if everyone became a monk, then what scriptures to recite, they would all wait to die! For the first time, the fat monk began to question the teachings of Buddhism.

Chao Gai nodded with satisfaction, and glanced at the four women in front of the female soldier area proudly: "Since then, I have felt that getting married and having children is the way of heaven and cannot be violated. ”

His words annoyed Li Qingwan, Li Shishi, Hu Sanniang, and the four daughters of Yeludali. With a smile on his face, he stared at Chao Gai with an unkind gaze. Revealing dangerous information, it's inconvenient, wait until you get home.

Chao Gai understood, so his expression was a little unnatural, and he hurriedly changed the topic: "Well, this idea is very insignificant, or rather entrained." ”

Everyone thought he was funny and wanted to laugh, but no one dared. Even reckless men like Li Kui, Xuan, and Yu Tai don't dare to make any mistakes. Fortunately, Taishan, a stupid big man, doesn't understand, otherwise he would definitely laugh violently.
