Chapter 507

Afterwards, His Royal Highness the King of Chu asked Shu Laibao to sit down and have a meal with him.

Shu Laibao ate a meal carefully, flattered, and at the same time surprised by Gangzhu Hong's appetite, how big he really is.

Zhu Zhen ate his belly round, put down his chopsticks, took the handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and asked him, "Have you thought about helping Liu participate in politics to fulfill his unfinished will?"

"Of course I thought about it, but I'm just a beggar, oh, now I'm the deputy chief, how can I help?" Shu Laibao sighed.

"You're wrong, the beggar gang can be of great help, and it's very useful." Zhu Zhen shook his head and said, "For example, most of the hidden fields and households happen in remote countryside and closed mountain villages, and we have to find them all. Come out and find out their details, there is nothing more suitable than a beggar."

"That's right, our beggars are like mice digging holes, we can drill everywhere. The more places our colleagues seldom go to, the more we can get food." Shu Laibao said happily: "It's most suitable for us to entrust this job. "

"There are more suitable jobs." His Royal Highness King Chu laughed again.

"and also?"

"Yes." Lao Liu nodded and said: "I thought about it carefully, and the implementation of the New Deal still needs to be properly publicized. The previous big brother's publicity is not to say that he did not work hard.

"But there are also problems. One is that the effect of posting notices is definitely not good. Literate people in the countryside are rare, and this one is often from a wealthy family. How can it be possible to read things that are not good for them to ordinary people?"

"Really." Shu Laibao nodded and said, "It's useless to post more notices like that."

"Another one is that if you just paste a piece of paper, or send an official to go to the countryside, you can't resist those gentry and clan elders who confuse black and white day after day and talk nonsense." The sixth child said again.

"That's right. The government has few messengers. A province is as big as it is, and there are thousands of villages. If you can go around once a year, you will be exhausted." Shu Laibao said deeply:
"I'm afraid there's no need for those big households to say anything. The villagers have long forgotten about it."

"That's why we need to send out a strong propaganda team to walk around the streets all day long and visit every village every now and then." His Royal Highness the King of Chu waved his hand forcefully and said, "Except for our beggars' gang, there is nothing else that can do this job. who?"

"This..." Shu Laibao finally understood that it turned out that His Royal Highness the King of Chu disguised himself as a beggar to visit the beggar gang, not on a whim; he did not agree to be the leader of the gang because he was forced to do so, but because he had already set his sights on their poor education.

"What the gang leader said... the behavior of this propaganda team is indeed like us beggars, but we beggars are all blind. If you can beg for food with a shy face, you can't do these serious things that are reasonable and polite. "Shu Laibao smiled wryly and said:
"The reason why Lao Bangcai was able to become the deputy gang leader is because he is the only one who can read in the whole gang."

"You are wrong again. The true meaning of propaganda does not lie in how much knowledge you have and how much you understand." Lao Liu waved his arms, sonorously said: "It lies in using the words that are easiest to remember and embodying the most provocative words." content, and then use the simplest way, over and over again!"

"Easy to remember, provocative, popular, and repetitive..." Shu Laibao grasped the four elements instantly, and said with a flash of light: "Isn't that just a prophecy?"

"That's right, you're a fucking genius!" The sixth child couldn't help but look at Shu Laibao with admiration, nodded and said, "That's the thing!"

For example, the most famous ones are "Hu Ye, who died in Qin Dynasty", "Da Chu Xing, King Chen Sheng", "Heaven is dead, Huang Tian should be established, and the age is Jiazi, the world will be prosperous", "The man who replaced Han, Dang Tu Gao", " The inspection is the son of heaven', and the sentence closest to 'Mo Daoshi has one eye, provoke the Yellow River to rebel against the world'...

All of these classic political prophecy rumors, once launched, were immediately spread by word of mouth, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and played an excellent role in publicity.

"What does the boss mean, we also make up some catchy prophecy rumors, so that beggars can spread them around?" Shu Laibao asked tentatively.

"That's right!" Lao Liu snapped his fingers and said, "In the past, my elder brother was too honest and only knew about dry propaganda. In a place like Jiangxi where gods gather together, if you don't brag a little bit mysteriously, who will take it seriously?" ?”

"It's not difficult. The common people already believed that Master Hongwu is not a mortal!" Shu Laibao nodded hurriedly.

"Of course, we have to explain the real benefits." Lao Liu said again: "We only brag about my father's awesomeness, and don't exaggerate the curative effect."

"Yes..." Shu Laibaoxin said this, why does it sound so awkward?On the surface, he said flatteringly: "In this way, the blackboard script that the leader of the gang composes and sings when he is begging for food on Shitou Street today is perfect."

"Well, we two want to go together." Zhu Zhen said with a smile: "I'll take time these few days to make up a few lyrics and teach you later. You can teach it to the gang members."

"Thank you, Master, for teaching!" Shu Laibao hurriedly thanked him, he really wanted to learn this kind of begging skill, which was boasted by Hou Er and others.At the end, he asked again: "Is our libretto famous?"

"Let's call it Shulaibao." Lao Liu said with a smile.

"The leader of the gang really loves me..." Seeing that the leader of the gang named it after himself, Shu Laibao was moved to tears.

~~
"Your job is not easy." Lao Liu said again: "There are so many places in the whole province, it is not enough to rely on just a few beggars in Nanchang."

"Don't worry, Master, green lotus, white lotus root and red lotus, the beggars in the world belong to the same family." Shu Laibao said confidently: "There are many people in Jiangxi, and there are also many beggars. As long as you have something to eat, let's call grandpa and grandpa. Call grandma, call grandma."

"Definitely take care of the food." Lao Liu said with a smile: "The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and I, the leader of the gang, can't let the brothers start working hungry."

"That's it!" Shu Laibao suddenly said ambitiously: "With the words of the leader, within a month, I will be able to form an alliance with the beggar gang in the whole province, so that the leaders from all over the country will come to Nanchang to take orders!"

"Then the leader of this gang has been promoted to the chief leader of the beggar gang in the whole province?" The sixth son was overjoyed.

"Of course! The chief guild leader of the whole province is none other than the guild leader!" Shu Laibao flattered while wondering, this is a prince, why is he still so addicted to the beggar guild leader?

At this time, Deng Duo held up a pair of official eighth-rank military officer robes, Zhu Zhen motioned to Shu Laibao to take it over and said, "From now on, you will be the little banner officer under my king's command."

"Thank you, Your Highness..." Shu Laibao hurriedly wiped his hands vigorously on his body, then tremblingly took the official uniform, completely convinced that his choice was correct.

"I give you this official status, firstly, for reward, and secondly, for your safety." Zhu Zhen said lightly: "Anyway, that account book came out of your hand, and some people are afraid to find it. You are troublesome. You should keep a low profile for a while, and in a short time, no one in Nanchang City, or even Jiangxi Province, will dare to touch a single hair of the people in my Palace of Chu!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Shu Laibao nodded heavily.
