Chapter 85 The Leather Industry
When Vincent returned from the realm of the gods with the protection of the prostitute from the god of art, as well as the newly acquired "art skill of painting", and the reward of the craftsman god who didn't know how to use it, the performance on the stage continued.
The villagers are excited that the tax collectors and henchmen will be severely punished, and that their property and land will be divided equally, and they are demanding that they be completely imitated in reality.
Vincent, though, made a slight change in the script.
Poor Ciel took revenge, but instead of staying in the village, she became a nun in the church and prayed for the people all day long.
This kind of change really reduces the GM nature of the work, making theocracy the end of salvation.
If you put it in another world, I am afraid that it will be evaluated as a negative and avoidant ending, and various limitations.
But in this magical world dominated by divine power, Vincent eats people and has a short mouth, and he does not dare and cannot directly clash with the gods.
For the purpose of encircling the church, Vincent still let the church, which would not have played an active role in grassroots governance at all, play a small role.
Having struck down the snakes, united the poor masses, praised his own people, and curried favor with the church, Vincent's shadow puppet show achieved a goal and was considered a success.
Although this art form, which does not require a special stage and is performed by real people, is very suitable for popularization, especially in the countryside, Vincent still thinks about changing such performances to stage plays and moving them to the theater stage in the city.
Relatively wealthy citizens, merchants, and aristocrats must have higher aesthetic requirements, and it is by no means something that a few inexperienced people can put together a grass platform team that can please.
As long as more advanced stage technology is used to achieve audio-visual effects that are not available in this era, not only will the people be satisfied and happy, but even the greasy and conceited god of art will be greatly happy.
For a good toy in Vincent's mind, it is true that it is not perfect just because it has function and use, and it can become a classic with artistic taste.
Produced by masters, it is not only of high value, but also has uniqueness that is difficult to imitate.
Thinking of this, Vincent couldn't help but think of the new reward given to him by the craftsman god, the so-called "Apostolic Seal".
Since the main point of him and the two gods before was how to make the system compatible with divine power, he didn't have time to ask the craftsman god about the use of this power.
The Apostle's Seal is not a skill that can be unlocked with Fortify Points, as it is not a skill that a craftsman can learn in the world, but a demonstration of the Craftsman's divine power.
Vincent Vincent von Steyakard was an apostle recognized by the gods of craftsmanship for his contribution to spreading faith in the world and resisting temptation.
In order to figure out how to use this skill, Vincent had to find a way to get away from the agitated peasants.
After reading it, people have too many touching feelings to express, mainly the injustice and humiliation encountered in the village, if you collect it, you should be able to find a lot of material that exceeds the plot in the shadow puppet play.
The other thing is to protect the props, if it weren't for the terrifying demons under his own hands, the props specially sponsored by Decas would probably be torn to pieces by the angry peasants.
The actors holding shadow puppets were also surrounded, although their performances just now were really not professional, but the touching plot still covered up the shortcomings, making them respected artists. ….
Although many villagers were half angry and cried a lot, they still strongly demanded to continue the performance.
"Looks like you're going to transform into an earthy country idol now." Vincent joked to Ninia, "I have to say, you're going to get more and more things, and you're getting more and more popular."
Unable to stand the enthusiastic gaze of the young people in the village, Ninia, who was trying to find a way to hide behind the lord's back, heard these words, her face was slightly hot, but she couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"It seems that in the future, I will have to let you regularly go to the countryside to perform condolences." Vincent asked Ninia, "Do you want to learn how to sing?"
Compared with singing and dancing performances as idols, Ninia still has to admit that she seems to prefer the majestic feeling of leading soldiers into battle.
「
There are too many villages in the territory," Ninia quickly suggested to Vincent, "You can have specially trained skeleton soldiers perform the performance, and they can perform the shadow puppet to perfection as long as they complete the movements step by step."
Hey? The idea......
It seems to be really feasible.
Vincent, who was inspired, couldn't help but glance at her in surprise, and saw the girl smiling shyly, and her demeanor was much more confident and generous.
This little girl has grown a lot in all aspects.
If the skeletons were to become shadow puppet operators, they would need to carve more complex magical engravings on them, which would have been more complex for combat, and there was no precedent for this kind of work, and it was estimated that the necromancer would have cursed resentment in his heart.
As long as the development is successful, any skeleton can become a professional actor and become a cost-effective performance prop to perform anytime and anywhere on any occasion.
If you combine it with the phonophonic magic in the Mage Guild and reproduce the pre-arranged character voices with magic, then your shadow puppetry may really be able to be promoted everywhere and become a real intangible cultural heritage.
Whether art goes to the city or the countryside, as long as the people like it, their own art protection will rise.
At that time, wouldn't it be beautiful that technology and art will blossom at the same time?
This incident may really deserve serious preparation after the counterinsurgency is completed.
Finally letting the villagers go home, Vincent dragged his tired body back to the camp with his subordinates.
To be sure, eliminating the naysayers and redistributing the benefits to appease the population is just one simple step in governance.
Using the undead to spy on the dignitaries in the village, preventing people from disobeying the law, and completing the most basic taxes and material supplies is only the most basic requirement.
Even if it is done to this extent, the villagers are engaged in agriculture and work hard for food and food, and in the end the situation of meager income cannot be solved.
If you don't reach a certain level of affluence, you can't consume the utensils you create, and you can't become a believer in the craftsman.
Therefore, in order to make the village rich as soon as possible and form a certain characteristic industry, Vincent still used his brains.
With Decas's wholehearted contribution, Vincent initially formulated the future development direction of the village after research.
There is a lot of land in the area, in addition to arable land, there are also many pastures, on which many livestock are raised, and there are also many cobblers who make a living from it. ….
With the liberation of the village of Nur, the city will receive a supply of food and meat, as well as a supply of leather.
The skins of the slaughtered animals are first selected and dried.
Dried and ready leather goes through a series of processes such as soaking, liming, hair removal, planing, deashing, enzyme softness, pickling and other processes to become a material that can be easily processed further.
Tanning is the most important process in making leather, and the addition of vegetable tanning can make the raw hides become mature skins, so that the cooked skins can be stored for a long time.
Finally, the leather can be processed into leather, and some of the light leather can be dyed, oiled to a certain extent, and then properly rinsed, polished, and other subsequent treatments, and then it becomes the final product.
The local leather production method is mainly vegetable tanning, although it is not advanced, but it can already meet their own needs, and they can also sell leather products to various places for profit.
Since even the stinky skin of the Decass can come in handy, the real leather should certainly play a bigger role.
In response to the lack of processing materials and water pollution in the village, Vincent contacted the alchemists of the Mage Guild on the one hand to get as many ready-made potions as possible, and on the other hand, he continued to take out all kinds of slimes and try to dispose of garbage and wastewater.
After the rebellion ended, it was able to provide itself with processed leather that could be further made into a variety of practical and fashionable leather goods.
If necessary, you can also give them design samples, teach them techniques, and authorize them to produce directly in the village, sell them to Herod in the north, and earn their gold coins.
Leather goods, especially shoes, are absolutely essential daily necessities for everyone, and the demand for Silver Dragon Fort alone can make life better for the people of the village.
However, as a toy, leather is best suited for ...... Ball..
