At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 53 Shadow Play

Not only that, but also arrange meals every day, Fang Gong even came to express condolences in person, and said... they will be given an errand in a short time.

The salary for this job is not low, but it just takes a period of training and learning.

Naturally, this is the dormitory management grandpa and grandma prepared by Xu Mu for the first phase of the residential area project.

……

After the tens of thousands of people had finished drinking, the major programs for tonight began.

First, the military band came on stage and played a breaking song.

The sound of killing reverberated in all directions, coupled with the spirits he just drank, once again pushed the atmosphere to a climax.

When Yang Guang and Lai Hu'er heard this song for the first time, they felt as if they were on the battlefield, and they couldn't help breathing quickly.

This was military music. Afterwards, those talented people recruited by the Lord's Mansion also came to the stage one after another, performing their specialties.

In order to last for a long time, there is even a project of crushing boulders in the chest.

Juggling, drama, musical instruments...

The stars moved, and amidst the cheers and intoxication of tens of thousands of people, the time soon approached midnight.

On the high platform, the last project was gradually carried out.

"Shadow play..."

Xu Mu also walked off the high platform, and watched the performance on the high platform with Lao Fang and the others.

At this time, shadow puppetry was still very small, but it was popular in Hebei.

But Xu Mu didn't expect that among the [-] people, some of them escaped from Hebei and even possessed the skills of shadow puppetry.

After discovering these talents, Xu Mu attached great importance to it and specially asked Fang Xuanling to arrange this program at the end.

As for the subject matter and the script, he personally edited and usurped it, to determine the flood!
The main purpose is to further strengthen the cohesion within Wanmin City.

Among them, many main links are highlighted. The most important thing to publicize is naturally his insight and foresight. When it rains lightly, he has a premonition that the flood is coming.

Afterwards, Fang Xuanling ran around overnight, admonishing the people, and they all entered the city.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Guang built a temporary shed in the city.

Fang Xuanling distributed porridge and quilts, and Yang Guang patrolled the city to check for congestion.

It also added a lot of fireworks, for example, in order to be busy with the disaster, the old house slept on the ground after returning home...

Yang Guang couldn't sleep all night.

Regardless of the danger of his life, Lai Huer got into the waterway and dredged the stagnant water with his life.

Supplemented by major lines, the rendering of the characters is enhanced.

Under the dim light, tens of thousands of people were silent and looked up at the huge shadow puppets on the high platform.

Shadow puppetry is made of animal skins that are ground to make them transparent. Using the light-transmitting property, behind the leather curtain, corresponding characters are made, and the joints are connected with threads, and then used to perform movements.

In the limited environment of ancient times, Xu Mu discovered its great value at a glance.

It is simply a must-have artifact for publicity.

This is equivalent to a movie of later generations, which is extremely vivid and vividly shows every detail of this flood fight.

Let these people know who is silently paying in the corner they can't see.

Sure enough, when it came to Lai Hu'er, in order to clear the blockage, regardless of the danger of his life, he got into the waterway, and tens of thousands of people thanked Lai Huer for his kindness.

Beside Yang Guang, Lai Huer didn't expect that the lord actually compiled his own deeds into it.

A little dazed, listening to the people thanking him, his expression was exactly the same as that of Yang Guang before.

His Adam's apple squirmed, and his expression was complicated. Yang Guang patted him on the shoulder and said: "The people love you so much, you must not let them down."

Lai Hu'er only felt the heat in his chest, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Director, your subordinates will definitely build the residential buildings!"

Yang Guang nodded, looking at the huge shadow puppet again, sighing.

The longer he spent in Wanmin City, the more he felt that Xu Mu's heart seemed wider than he thought.

The value of this magical shadow puppet is self-evident, and Xu Mu actually allowed to publicize his and Lai Huer's deeds in it!

Yang Guang thought to himself that if he was called him, he would never be able to promote anyone other than him!

But Xu Mu did just that.

"But in Wanmin City, it's just whoever it is. In terms of reputation, I'm afraid no one can surpass him."

Yang Guang shook his head and gave a wry smile, sighing inwardly.

Although he has a good reputation among the people now, he can be sure that if he and Xu Mu stand on opposite sides, these people will abandon him in a few minutes.

And scolded him for being ungrateful, tied him in front of Xu Mu.

The huge shadow puppet on the high platform is still going on, and Xu Mu is also watching with great interest.

Traveling through three years, it was like watching a big movie.

"I don't know when we can bring technology to the 21st century..."

While watching, Xu Mu's thoughts raced.

But suddenly, something felt wrong.

Because he actually heard the sobbing of the people below.

Frowning, Xu Mu found that tens of thousands of people below were weeping and sobbing softly.

Turning his head, Xu Mu looked at the shadow puppet, and then turned to look at Fang Xuanling: "I remember that there was no such link before?"

Fang Xuanling quickly bowed, with extremely clear eyes, and replied: "No, but my subordinates feel that this matter should be done, and the people of Wanmin City should know who brought them a new life."

At this time, the shadow puppet show was staged on the city tower, and Fang Xuanling asked Xu Mu for instructions on how to deal with the bonds of those seeds.

In the play, Xu Mu sighed with compassion: "The people are displaced and flooded. It's not easy. Let's burn it."

Immediately, Fang Xuanling in the play knelt down on the ground: "The lord is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. Throughout the ages, only saints can compare."

At this point in the performance, the common people were sobbing, they stood up consciously one by one, and bowed to Xu Mu.

"The lord is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. Throughout the ages, saints are not as good as in case..."

These common people recalled the days after they entered Wanmin City, and while weeping and choking, they once again bowed down a large area.

Beside him, Fang Xuanling cupped his hands solemnly, bowed again, and closely followed the formation: "My lord is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. Throughout the ages, saints are not as good as in case..."

Yang Guang and Lai Hu'er looked at this scene with complicated expressions, and now they know that in Wanmin City, Xu Mu is really going to be deified.

These people actually tampered with the lines in the play, and they were so bold that they thought that Xu Mu had already surpassed a saint.

But helpless, the trend of the times, even if Yang Guang didn't want to, he had no choice but to follow behind Fang Xuanling and bow deeply to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu exhaled a long breath, and smiled helplessly at Fang Xuanling: "You..."

He knew what Fang Xuanling meant.

I was afraid that Yang Guang's reputation would surpass him in this flood, so I added such a scene specially.

At this point, he knew that Fang Xuanling had really surrendered, and he could completely be his confidant in the future.

Just at this time, the shadow puppet show ended, it was already past the early morning, and the next day entered.

At the same time, the sound of firecrackers sounded again.

The entire Wanmin City boiled again.

Xu Mu walked to the high platform and saluted tens of thousands of people in return.

"Today is the first day of the first lunar month. At the beginning of the new year, Wanmin City has been in business for 14 years. There will be the following plans."

Afterwards, he began to publicize the one-year plan prepared by Fang Xuanling: "First, we will build Wanmin City into a prosperous city for the people and businesses. The city has it, and the other states and counties don’t have it, so I want to have it in Wanmin City!!”

"Secondly, Wanmin City's municipal administration is perfected, and a total of twelve phases of the residential area will be built to ensure that all the people can live in new houses!"

"Third, ensure that every citizen in Wanmin City has a stable job!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Mu announced the new policy of the Lord's Mansion.

But the people's spirits of drinking came up, and they drank in a daze. They only knew how to wave their flags and shout, and kept shouting long live the lord.

I don't know how many people listened to it.

But Yang Guang could hear it very clearly. He had a lot of alcohol and was quite clear-headed at this time.

It has to be said that each of the new policies announced by Xu Mu is a big deal.

If it can be done within one year, Wanmin City can already be regarded as a rather prosperous city.

However, Yang Guang is not very optimistic about it, because Wanmin City is located in the deep mountains and lacks manpower. With [-] people, it cannot develop at all.

In this way, amidst the cheers of the common people, the first Spring Festival Gala of Wanmin City came to an end.

Under the guard of the soldiers in the city, to ensure that every commoner returned to the temporary hut smoothly, Xu Mu and others ended their busy day.

Xu Mu returned to the third floor of his small western building.

"On the first day of the first lunar month, it's time to go to Luoyang."

In the past two days, he received a battle report from Zhang Xutuo, saying that the Wagang Army seemed to have no interest in Yangcheng.

The general in charge of guarding Yangcheng seems to have changed. Pei Renji's army took a detour to the north and did not choose to gnaw at the bone of Yangcheng.

After a heavy rain, there are more important things waiting for them.

Xu Mu deduced that they probably wanted to directly attack Luokoucang.

So I would rather take a detour and leave the hidden danger of Yangcheng, but also seize the opportunity.

Under the torrential rain, the people were displaced and countless died of starvation.

If Li Mi can get food quickly, his strength will expand dramatically.

So Xu Mu couldn't delay any longer.

It is necessary to go to Luoyang City as soon as possible. On the one hand, it is to start the Wanmin business, and on the other hand... it is to select a suitable area and dig a tunnel.

Directly to... Luokou Warehouse.

Then use the old method to secretly move the grain out of the Luokou warehouse.

And it just so happened that not far from the Luokou warehouse was the Tongji Canal built by Lao Yang. As long as he found a place adjacent to the Tongji Canal, he could go down the river.

Yangcheng is just near Tongji Canal.

During the defense of Yangcheng earlier, the reason why he wanted to dig a moat to divert the water from the Ji Canal around the city was to receive the huge amount of grain from the Luokou warehouse.

Come up with a trick to hide the sky and cross the sea, and hide the old warehouse!

Lao Zhang will be responsible for the construction of the moat in Yangcheng, and he will be responsible for the excavation of the tunnels near the Luokou warehouse.

Therefore, early tomorrow morning, he will take Fan Zhu, the apparent owner of Wanmin Firm, and Kong Xingyue, the general manager of the military industry, to Luoyang.

Well, there is the most important plan, kidnapping scholars.

Xu Mu sorted out the purpose of his trip to Luoyang to make sure there was nothing missing before he went to sleep with peace of mind.

"Three years have passed. Tomorrow, let me see the most prosperous eastern capital of the Sui Dynasty."
