I

Who cares, let's talk about it first!

Huang Shunde's mind was spinning, and the drama had begun on the stage.

In order to make the people at the lower level feel more substituting, Zhao Han's adaptation of "The White Haired Girl" does not have any literary libretto.During the rehearsal, illiterate actors were also asked to revise the lines and dialogues into local dialects.

The story takes Huangjia Town as the background——

Yang Bailao lost his wife in his early years and only had one daughter, Xi'er.She is often taken care of by her neighbor Yang Dachun, mother and son. The two families live in harmony.

The bully landlord Huang Shiren intends to occupy Xi'er and force Yang Bailao to repay the debt within a year with heavy rent.On New Year's Eve, Yang Bailao was unable to repay his debts, so he was forced to sell his daughter and committed suicide in agony.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xi'er was taken to Huang's house, where she was humiliated and tortured.Then, Yang Dachun's mother and son were expelled.

The leading actor Yang Dachun, when his mother was deported, died of illness while sleeping in the open air.He was rescued by Mr. Zhao, who heard about Huang Shiren's bad deeds and agreed to help him rescue Xi'er.

Xi'er was pregnant and was let go by the kind maid of Huang's family. On the way, she gave birth to a baby and died.Hiding in the mountains, her black hair turned into white hair, and because of stealing tributes from the temple, she was regarded as a white-haired fairy by the villagers.

Mr. Zhao came back with Yang Dachun, suppressed Huang Shiren, and distributed land to the people of Huangjia Town.Hearing the rumor of the white-haired fairy, Yang Dachun went to the mountains to search for it for many days, and the lovers finally got married.

on stage.

Xiaocui played Xi'er, Chen Maosheng played Yang Dachun, Fei Chun disguised as Huang Shiren, and Fei Ruhe played the silent house slave throughout.The rest of the actors are all civil servants of the town hall and maids of Zhao Han's house.

The villagers felt very strange, seeing the drama for the first time.

The libretto will not be mentioned, the dialogue is still in the local dialect, and the clothes are very ordinary, not the costumes on a serious stage.

In addition, the story takes place in Huangjia Town, and Huang Shiren is also Master Huang, so the sense of substitution is simply full.

Huang Shunde's wife watched it enthusiastically, but he himself was full of disdain, thinking that this kind of drama is not good for the stage, and the lines and libretto are extremely vulgar.

Gradually, Huang Shunde became frightened, because the surrounding villagers were restless.

On New Year's Eve, Yang Bailao was forced by Mr. Huang to sell his daughter, and he committed suicide without thinking.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xi'er was taken away again, beaten and humiliated.

On the stage, several door panels were erected, which was Master Huang's bedroom.

Because Xi'er resisted, she was beaten outside the house first, then dragged inside and raped.

The villagers couldn't see what was going on behind the door, only heard Xi'er crying bitterly.Those who are close to the stage can even hear the sound of clothes being torn.

"Kill Huang Papi!"

Finally, some villagers couldn't hold back, and other villagers also roared angrily.

Then he rushed up to count people, beat and kicked Fei Chun, who was playing Huang Shiren, and rescued poor Xi'er.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Xi'er was rescued, countless villagers cheered.

Chen Maosheng hurriedly led people to stop him, and kept explaining that this was acting, so that the villagers should not take it as real.

The unlucky Fei Chun was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, so he had to stay on stage and act.

The plot that follows is equally depressing.

Yang Dachun was expelled, and his mother died tragically halfway.Xi'er escaped to birth, but the child died young, with white hair like a madman, and like a wild ghost wandering in the mountains.

Finally, Mr. Zhao came back with Yang Dachun!

Mr. Zhao outwitted Mr. Huang and led the tenants to rebel.The hero and heroine meet again, and under the auspices of Mr. Zhao, they get married and become husband and wife.

The long-term depression was released, and the villagers stood up and cheered, and the applause came and went.

Although he didn't perform in Shanghuang Village today, Huang Yao was still invited to watch the play.

He didn't finish watching it at all, so he quietly hid by the side of the threshing floor, covering his mouth and weeping silently.Although his experience was only slightly similar to "The White-haired Girl", he felt that he was playing himself, and his childhood sweetheart also died tragically in the Huang family.

At some point, the newlywed wife came behind him and shed tears with Huang Yao without saying a word.

On the stage, the performance of "The White-haired Girl" has ended, and the next part is the complaining meeting.

Jiang Dashan was the first to come on stage: "I am a person with a foreign surname, and I suffer more than many of you. Mr. Huang... Huang Zundao specializes in bullying people with a foreign surname. My ancestors also had land, which was occupied by Huang Zundao's ancestors. The rent paid by people with a foreign surname The most important thing is that the good is invisible, and all the bad things are involved. Escorting food is hard work, and I bring my own food, and I take the food to the county. Corrupt officials always find fault, and deliberately throw out the food, saying that the food I am holding is not packed. If it is full, we will have to make up for the shortfall by ourselves.”

"If the Huang family's ancestral hall, ancestral house, and canals need to be repaired, I will take part every time. No wages, no rations, and beatings if they do not do well. There was a severe drought more than ten years ago, and Huang Zundao sent his slaves to remind them Rent, robbed my family of food, my father, my brother and sister-in-law were all starved to death..."

As he spoke, Jiang Dashan began to cry, unable to continue talking at all.

Chen Maosheng asked him to step down and asked: "Who else wants to complain, come up and open up and say, we are all hard-working people, don't hold back and feel uncomfortable."

"I'll tell you!"

This time it was not a nursery, an old farmer rushed to the stage and began to tell his miserable experience.

Huang Shunde was startled and became silent at the same time.He studied hard since he was a child. Later, the number of people in his family increased, and his life gradually became difficult.And he himself had no hope in the imperial examination. He started to learn farming in his 20s, and he didn't care much about the lives of the villagers.

Until now, Huang Shunde didn't know that his cousin had done so many bad things.

Such a big landlord, should he kill Fentian?

Huang Shunde's thinking became confused. He is a scholar, and he doesn't suffer much. He still retains a trace of the pursuit of a scholar in his heart.

"Mother, did uncle really do all these bad things?" Huang Shunde asked in a low voice.

Mother Huang sighed: "Oh, everyone is dead, so don't ask more questions."

That's true.

Huang Shunde didn't know what to say, so he stood there in a daze, listening to the villagers come to the stage to complain.

Chapter 102 [Unification of the World]

The living room of Huang Jiazu's house was transformed into a meeting room of Wuxing Town Hall.

Today is the founding meeting of the Datong Association.

There were 12 participants: Zhao Han, Pang Chunlai, Zhang Tieniu, Chen Maosheng, Fei Ruhe, Fei Chun, Huang Fei, Huang Fei, Jiang Dashan, Huang Yao, Huang Shun, and Huang Shunfu.

Huang Shunfu was the head of the school boy section. Although he was born as a self-cultivating farmer, he was relatively distant from Mr. Huang's blood.

Moreover, although his family has a lot of land, they also have a lot of Dingkou, which has been forcibly separated by Zhao Han.

In Huang Shunfu's view, it doesn't matter if the family is separated or not. The key is to pay less taxes. His family can finally have enough food this year.

As the first scholar in this town to take the initiative to contribute, and he is very active and conscientious in his work, Zhao Han will certainly be reused, and he is also allowed to participate in the founding meeting of the Datong Association.

Zhao Han asked with a smile: "Have you all watched "The White-haired Girl"?"

"Look." Everyone nodded.

"How would you rate this play?" Zhao Han asked again.

"It's not as good as the Yiyang play," Fei Ruhe spoke first, and then added, "I saw that the villagers were filled with righteous indignation. This play was performed for them, and it must have reached their hearts."

Huang Yao said with emotion: "The acting is so real, I can't bear to watch it every time."

Xiao Cui said: "When I was rehearsing, I cried during the performance."

Fei Chun lamented: "Can someone else play Huang Shiren? In the next few scenes, if there is no Tuan Yongying standing guard, I am afraid that I will be beaten every time I play it."

"Hahahaha!"

Everyone laughed loudly, even Pang Chunlai couldn't stop laughing.

Fortunately, during the performance, he wore a fake beard and a hat, otherwise Fei Chun would be beaten when he went out!

Although Pang Chunlai always wanted to rebel, his rebellious thinking was very traditional.It's nothing more than making friends with the rich gentry, making friends with all kinds of religions and nine streams, waiting for the changes in the world, and taking the opportunity to rise up.

Until now, Pang Chunlai was gradually influenced by Zhao Han and began to accept the bottom-level change route.

Pang Chunlai said: "The drama is very good, and ordinary people can understand it at a glance. First perform "The White-haired Girl", and then hold a complaint meeting, and the people's emotions will be mobilized. If the government dares to send troops, the people will not agree. They don’t want to live the hard life of the past. The old man thinks that from now on, whenever he goes to a place, he will first divide the land for the farmers, then perform "The White-haired Girl", and then hold a complaint meeting. After the complaint meeting, immediately recruit soldiers and horses, and the people will definitely join the army enthusiastically. !"

"Mr. Pang is well said!" Zhao Han took the lead in applauding.

"Clap clap clap!"

The others also applauded. They already knew that Pang Chunlai was Zhao Han's teacher.

Zhao Han suddenly said: "Yanchu (Huang Shunfu), come and read the general chapter of the Datong Association."

Being called by Zhao Han alone, Huang Shunfu was very excited, and quickly stood up and recited: "On the journey of the great road, the world is for the public... Therefore, the outdoors are not closed, which is called Great Harmony."

Zhao Han asked everyone: "Can you all understand?"

Those who have read the book nod, those who have not read the book nod and shake their heads, probably understand a small part.

Zhao Han ordered: "Yanchu, please tell everyone in common Chinese."

There is a translation in the general chapter, and it is the translation of Zhao Han's private goods. Huang Shunfu read it accordingly:

"The greatest truth in the world is to have a public heart. The world belongs to the people of the world. The court is the court of the emperor, the court of officials, the court of landlords, the court of craftsmen, the court of peasants, and the court of thousands of people. The imperial court of thousands of hardworking people..."

"Since it is our court, when selecting officials to do things, you should choose good people as officials, and you should choose capable officials."

"The imperial court and the government should be trustworthy and be kind to the common people. They should not only know how to exploit the common people all day long."

"The government and the common people, the common people and the common people, should be like a family. Love your own parents, your own children, and love other people's parents and children."

"Old people should enjoy their old age in peace. When people are old and can't work, they should also have food and clothing, and have children to die with filial piety. Young people should have land farming, work, work, and books. Those who are more capable should have Let them become officials and govern the world better. Children need someone to raise them, and let them grow up in the right way."

"Old people without children, widows without husbands, orphans without parents, the government should help them, and neighbors should also help them."

"When a man grows up, he can marry a wife and find a job. When a woman grows up, he can marry a good family."

"Wealth, money and food, earned by yourself, don't be jealous of others, don't waste extravagance, don't want it if it's not your own. Don't be jealous of others who have talent, learning and strength. People with talent, learning and strength should do things well. Don’t bully others just because of your talent and strength.”

"In this way, ordinary people will not think of rebellion, nor will they abandon their homes to become thieves. No one will steal if the door is not locked. This is Datong!"

Some translations were intentionally misinterpreted by Zhao Han, which made Fei Ruhe and other scholars frown.

Jiang Dashan, Huang Yao and others who don't study, but listen to it with great yearning.

Huang Yao exclaimed: "Is this the book of Confucius? It's really well written!"

Zhao Han asked with a smile: "Do you want the world to become like this?"

Fei Ruhe complained: "Who wouldn't want to? No sage in ancient or modern times can do it."

"Whether you can do it or not is one thing; whether you want to do it or not is another matter," Zhao Han said with a sigh. One point is one point!"

Jiang Dashan suddenly said: "The imperial court can't let good people become officials. The county is full of corrupt officials. I'm afraid it won't be easy for the world to be unified."

"The big landlord is also very bad. With the big landlord, there must be no great harmony in the world." Huang Shun also said.

"Ah!"

Zhao Han suddenly slapped the table and stood up: "If the imperial court can't do it, then let's do it. If the world can't be done, then first let Wuxing Town Datong, then let Xuanhua Township Datong, then let Luling County Datong, and then make Datong Datong in Ji'an Prefecture!"

Everyone saw the changes in Wuxing Town and knew it was a rebellion.

But Zhao Han himself admitted that he wanted to rebel, and added a set of Datong rhetoric, which still shocked everyone present.

Zhao Han looked at everyone and said forcefully: "Let everyone in the world have a public heart, not just let others do it, I will start with myself first. I donated all the [-] mu of land under my name and only [-] mu of land is left. "

"These lands will be the public property of Wuxing Town in the future, and they will be used to do good deeds for the common people. From now on, whoever makes meritorious service will be rewarded with [-] mu of land. Any farmer who saves money can also sell the land to farmers, but only to Farmers with little land, sell to farmers who have worked so hard to grow the land and don’t have enough to eat!”

When the others heard this, they were just shocked and admired.

Fei Ruhe looked at Zhao Han quietly, he knew that most of what he said was for himself.

It worked very well, Fei Ruhe listened to it.

Although the [-] mu of land was snatched, as long as Zhao Han didn't continue to rebel, the government would probably acquiesce.Zhao Han really donated [-] mu of land!

Zhao Han can donate [-] mu, so why not his own land?

In order to do great things, it is worth it!

The more Zhao Han talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more his fighting spirit became high: "I set up this Datong Association to bring about great harmony in the world. Make foolish kings abdicate, let corrupt officials go, and let men, women, and children have enough to eat. Who would like to work with me? Who would like to do things with me? Join the Datong Association?"

"I!"

Chen Maosheng and Huang Yao shouted at the same time.

The third person who responded was actually Huang Shunfu, the head of the school children's section. He said with great ambition: "The book of Rites is the book of Rites for me. Today I will understand its true meaning. This is the way of the sages!"

The others also responded, only Fei Ruhe, Fei Chun, Xiaohong, and Xiaocui remained.

"Women...women can also join?" Xiaohong was a little unsure.

Zhao Han smiled and said, "You've become a section chief, so you're afraid you won't be able to join the club?"

Xiao Hong shyly said: "My official can only manage women and children. This Datong Association, I'm afraid it will be different, and I will have to manage many people in the future."

Zhao Han shook his head and said, "The Datong Association is just a club, not a government office, so you can't be an official. You can't get a salary, but you have to pay the membership fee every year. You have to think about it! Of course, the membership fee is not much, and ordinary people can afford it. "

"Then I'll join." Xiaohong smiled.
