From the world of martial arts

After leaving Jiuyuan County, Su Fan took Zhang Liao to Jizhou. Jizhou is a place in the north of the Central Plains and one of the most prosperous states in Liu Han.

Zhang Jiao's Taiping Road base camp is right here in Jizhou.

And there are as many aristocratic families in Jizhou as there are crucian carp crossing the river.

The people at the bottom of Jizhou's life are not as good as pigs and dogs. The same is true, so the development of Taiping Road will be very smooth.

Moreover, Zhang Jiao also followed Su Fan's suggestion and started from the countryside, although there were still clan elders in the countryside.

But these people actually did not live a good life. Although the small landowners in ancient times did not have enough food and clothing to live like many people at the bottom, due to productivity, it was actually impossible to live in a big way. .

They are also subject to exploitation.

Therefore, when Taipingdao preaches in villages and towns, both the village elders and the people at the bottom have considerable support.

Especially the disciples of Taiping Dao, after being taught, each of them is very knowledgeable.

Originally, Taiping Dao was about curing diseases and rescuing people, using talisman water to save diseases.

Later, after Su Fan's advice, medical skills also continued to increase among Taiping Dao disciples, and farming was also spread again.

It is equivalent to Taiping Dao, which took over the actions of Zhang Liang and others back then.

After the Qin Dynasty dissipated, part of the farming technical knowledge passed down by Su Fan was lost due to the war.

But there are also many inheritances passed down, but most of the inheritances are occupied by those aristocratic families.

For example, regarding the knowledge of fertilizers, the common people at the lower level were guided by officials during the Great Qin era, and Great Qin had a specialized department for manufacturing fertilizers. After all, the official land during the Great Qin era was also very large.

This kind of fertilizer knowledge will be passed down from generation to generation by the people at the bottom. Unfortunately, most of the people at the bottom can only pass it on orally because they are illiterate. Sometimes, accidents occur or the expression is unclear, which will lead to incomplete fertilizer knowledge.

As for the Liu Han court, no officials would go to the local level to instruct the people at the bottom on how to make fertilizer.

Over time, folk fertilizers did still exist. However, compared with the fertilizer technology in the Qin Dynasty, not only did it not develop, but it actually regressed.

This is why, during the Liu Han period, the yield per mu of most fields in the world actually decreased.

Of course, some aristocratic families possess such technology, but they only use it as a means to monopolize knowledge.

Never spread.

In the Qin Dynasty, this kind of thing was impossible to happen. Once the court issued an order, few people in the local area dared not to act. If the officials did not act, they would be dealt with directly. If the local nobles dared to interfere, they would be punished once they were discovered. Will handle it.

Da Qin's laws were a deterrent even to the royal family, let alone others.

At its peak, the Liu Han court only relied on imperial power. Compared with the Da Qin era, its control over local areas was far behind.

Of course now, it's even worse.

But this also gave Zhang Jiao a chance.

After Su Fan's advice and Taiping Dao changed its thinking, the number of followers of Taiping Dao suddenly increased sharply.

As long as a Taiping Dao disciple goes to a local village to preach, that village will soon become Taiping Dao believers, young and old.

Even those village elders. After all, Taiping Dao preaching, whether it is spreading simple medical skills or agricultural knowledge, especially guiding farming, is extremely attractive to anyone.

In addition, Su Fan proposed the development of science and technology, and Taiping Road was first used in agriculture.

In ancient times, the productivity was entirely fields, so agriculture was the most important.

The teachings of Taiping Dao are in agriculture and medical skills, which are most in line with the appetite of the people at the bottom.

First of all, in terms of medical skills, in addition to treating diseases, Taiping Dao disciples also often instruct the people in these villages how to prevent diseases, or how to self-control simple cold diseases.

You must know that during the Liu Han period, doctors were only available in those cities, and only the rich could afford them. Ordinary people could only resist.

In the Qin Dynasty, medical treatment was actually not that developed. Even though Su Fan spread medical books at that time, doctors also developed to a great extent.

However, for the huge population, medical care is still not enough. Even if the technology of Su Fan's first life has developed into the new era of the 21st century, medical care is not enough in many places, let alone in ancient times.

Therefore, the self-governing and simple medical skills spread by Taiping Dao are really of great help to the people at the bottom.

They don't need to treat any major diseases. The simplest diseases such as rain, cold, wind and cold are originally the most terrifying for the people.

You can only resist hard and survive, if you can't resist, you can only wait to die.

The knowledge spread by Su Fan can reduce the mortality rate to the greatest extent possible, so it is not unattractive.

As for agricultural knowledge, it goes without saying.

In just a few years, the development of Taiping Road in Jizhou has increased by more than ten times compared to when Su Fan left.

If Zhang Jiao Taiping Dao didn't have enough disciples, it might have exploded.

Jiuzhou is too big. Jizhou alone has a population of no less than hundreds of millions, and even so, Jizhou can be considered to be vast and sparsely populated. The area of ​​Jizhou is several times larger than the area of ​​Asia in Su Fan's first life. .

With a population of hundreds of millions, although Jizhou has several cities with millions of people, there are still more villages. If one village needs one disciple, then the entire Jizhou may need tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of disciples.

There are many Taiping Dao believers, but there are not so many disciples. In recent years, even though Zhang Jiao has tried his best to recruit Taiping Dao disciples, there are only tens of thousands of people who can become disciples now.

Even later, they only taught them in a hurry for two or three years and then left them to preach.

The quality has dropped so much that of course it is enough to just preach and train people systematically for two or three years.

Each of the core disciples of Zhenzhen Taiping Dao has been trained for at least five years, and none of the disciples taught by Zhang Jiao personally has been trained for more than ten years. It is not only knowledge, but also cultivation.

It has been less than 50 years since Zhang Jiao founded Taiping Dao, and his background is still too shallow.

Of course, today's Taiping Dao is indeed a behemoth to many Taoist sects.

After all, the number of disciples alone now totals hundreds of thousands, especially the new disciples who have joined. The number has skyrocketed in the past two years.

Because of the increase in believers, more disciples can naturally be recruited, especially some village elders. These people also bring a lot of wealth to Taiping Dao.

We can also increase our efforts in cultivating disciples.

Taiping Road goes to the bottom, and it is a policy of surrounding cities from rural areas, so there is no obstacle to the development of Taiping Road. (End of chapter)
