Goddess Wanhua Mirror

The reason why so many people came was that some local lords who were still waiting to see were led by the Duke of Ganmaling and the Earl of Lumley, so this year other lords also followed suit and sent people over. ranging from a few to dozens.
In addition to the "public descendants" sent by these lords with money, there are also some scholars whose families are not in the baron's territory, but come here for fame.But people in this category are usually older, and some of them are even old uncles in their 40s and [-]s.
Lu De originally planned to welcome anyone who came, but then he considered that his side was a boarding school, and he couldn't just let a group of adults whose backgrounds were difficult to find out carefully live in.If there are a few scumbags mixed in here, the consequences will be unimaginable!
On the first day of school, the school held a grand entrance ceremony for new students on the main playground. Principal Lu De, teacher representatives and student representatives took the stage to give speeches to welcome new students into the school.
It is worth mentioning that the student representative elected by the vote is none other than Fran, the son of Goddess of Kitchen Fire Marikis.This little girl is smart and cute, her grades are always among the best among her peers, and she has a warm and cheerful personality. She is very popular with her classmates and is like a campus idol.
If nothing unexpected happened to Lu De, when the student union is formally established in the first half of this year, this kid will definitely be a strong candidate for the president.
After the short but grand entrance ceremony, the freshmen went to the dormitory building with the tutors and seniors of each college.In the same month of the new enrollment, these freshmen must first undergo a two-week "physical training", and then take a preliminary examination, and they will be divided into classes according to their grades.
You must know that except for the local freshmen in Songshu Town who are close to the water and generally have a certain cultural foundation, the illiteracy rate of foreign students from other places is as high as [-]%. Many of them can't even write their own names. A year and a half of basic culture will do.
certainly!Among nearly a thousand freshmen, although the vast majority are illiterate, there are also a few outstanding ones.
Lude discovered a gifted child in this session. The little girl named Elma, who is only eight years old this year, is the child of a merchant.It seems to have a quarter of dwarf blood, and it is petite and exquisite, not as tall as a table, but smart enough to make many adults feel ashamed.
This child can not only read and write, but also proficient in three languages. During the admission interview, he even showed his mental arithmetic in front of Lu De.As far as the cultural level is concerned, she can directly enter the advanced class.
What impressed Lude the most was that, unlike most of the other freshmen who followed suit and came to study medicine, when Lude asked Elma what she wanted to study as her first choice, the little dwarf clenched his fist proudly, expressing that he wanted to study medicine. To become the most knowledgeable person in the entire continent, so she wants to learn everything!
In short, this child came to study at her own expense, and her parents should love her very much and be very open-minded. Lu De was also happy to recruit such a gifted child.
After the start of the new semester, Lu De announced that the school will make a series of adjustments to various professional disciplines this year, changing the discipline system to a college system, and some subjects will be merged. At the same time, some new majors will be opened, such as business studies and military studies. wait.
Introduced together with the college system, there is also "advanced education".
Prior to this, Brewster College was a vocational and technical school with a literacy nature. The primary class was mainly for literacy, the intermediate class was for basic cultural knowledge, and the advanced class was for science and technology.If you meet the standard, you can skip a grade, and you can graduate with your studies. Therefore, the average time in school for the first batch of graduates is less than two years. It is a crash course in a crash course.
Lu De needs more capable high-tech talents instead of only training the most elementary technicians, so he also upgraded and reorganized the school accordingly after the number of students expanded.He intends to keep the most elite part of each batch of graduates and let them continue to improve.
By the way, after the reorganization, the emblems of the colleges also corresponded to different goddesses. For example, the medical school with the most prosperous population uses the god of medicine as its symbol.The emblems of some other colleges correspond to the "goddess second-phase students" who are about to appear in the plan. Lude's operation is equivalent to burying "easter eggs" in advance.
The first month at the beginning was undoubtedly busy for Lu De. The number of teachers and students in the entire school has almost exceeded 2000, and the growth rate of the scale has far exceeded the original expectation.Fortunately, Lude has a reserved land prepared in advance, so there is room for him to expand the new campus, and he can also pull out the students majoring in geotechnical engineering to do "practical exercises".
In addition to the expansion of the school, Lu De still has another project that needs to be constructed, which is to find a suitable place outside the town to build a village for the filming of "Seven Samurai".
The Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe just finished their tour in Wangdu last week, and they are currently on their way to Pine Tree Town. As soon as the actors are in place, the movie will officially start shooting.
End of this chapter
When Lu De came back from Yanmu City this time, he made filmmaking a top priority, and the amount invested in it was second only to education.Because starting this year, the Pantheon will officially change its strategy, turning from defense to offense and going out.
But Lude did not intend to adopt the expansion method of traditional sects. Firstly, there were not so many missionaries available, and secondly, the old missionary model was bound to recruit gangsters and make enemies in the process of spreading, and conflict with other sects.
You must know that missionaries are proper high-risk occupations no matter what age they are in.In ancient times before the outbreak of the war of gods, if a missionary was found in a pagan territory, he would be severely beaten at least, and would disappear directly from the world. Some religious wars were simply caused by missionaries crossing the border.
Now that we have entered the "Post-God War Era", although the surviving sects have somewhat restrained their style of conduct, they are no longer as brutal and barbaric as in the past, and they often shout and kill, but the open and secret fights in preaching have never Never stopped.
Lu De had heard some rumors before, saying that some local sects colluded with the evil forces behind the scenes, and hired bandits and bandits to intercept and kill missionaries from other places in the wilderness. The matter of death has nothing to do with him, and it is not easy for other sects to pursue it.
So in a sense, missionaries at the grassroots level are just like the D-level personnel of a certain foundation, and they belong to the category of "consumables".
The gods above them and the top leaders of the sect knew very well how dangerous the working environment of these missionaries was, but they didn't care at all.
Because anyone who has the ability to engage in external expansion must be a large and medium-sized sect with a certain scale, and there is no shortage of cannon fodder at all.Theoretically, as long as one out of every ten missionaries can take root in a certain place and develop dozens or even hundreds of believers, that sect will be profitable.
And for these successive missionaries, this is also one of the important channels for them to rise within the sect.
Most sects have clearly stipulated indicators, as long as a certain number of new believers can be developed in the mission area assigned by the superior, they can be promoted to trainee priests.And once you become a priest, not only is your status improved, but you can also get the power bestowed by the gods, changing from a worker to a master.
Therefore, even though the mission of preaching is very hard and dangerous, those monks with bad backgrounds still continue to rush forward.After all, before the real accident, everyone felt that they must be the luckiest one.
However, in Lude's view, the efficiency of the missionary model is too low, and the disadvantages are also obvious.The top leaders of many traditional sects are actually in the same line of thinking as the feudal lords, and they are too obsessed with territorial expansion. Missions are siege, temples are their castles, and beliefs are the "taxes" they collect from believers.
Their own old cognition and the limitations of the times make them only able to make this level of understanding, which is far less thorough than that of Lude.
What is faith?Fame is faith!As long as the gods of this world are regarded as "traffic stars", then everything is easy to understand.
Therefore, Lude's expansion strategy will not send missionaries abroad, and will not build temples and statues outside Pine Town, but he will spread the symbols of the Pantheon to every corner of the world through cultural communication, so that Everyone knows the goddesses under his banner.
The first time Lude collected beliefs through drama was when he created the three sisters.Although it was a great success, it was the first time after all, and it was far from being the best in all aspects.Especially in the area of faith collection, it is only possible to achieve [-]% complete collection with the help of Lude in command and the blessing of the original fire in his body.
But the problem is that there is only one Lude, he can't run around with the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe and act as a mobile signal base station.While in Yanwood City, there were more than a dozen projection teams hired by them at that time, and Lu De was even more incapable of doing it all at once, unable to appear on every set.
Fortunately, Lude knows that the collection of beliefs requires "symbols", and symbols do not necessarily have to be solemn temples and tall and majestic statues. A poster, a leaflet or even a movie ticket stub can also become a symbol. carrier.
Therefore, during his stay in Yanwood City, Lu De drew several posters by himself and asked the three sisters to print them in batches. Every audience who walked into the theater to watch the movie would get one.These posters are very popular among the audience because of their exquisiteness, and almost no one is willing to throw them on the ground.
So the posters and leaflets in everyone's hands became a collection of beliefs, which could be fully absorbed even without Luther's presence to provide blessings.Coupled with the excellent quality of the script of the original "King of the Grotto", Hume's image in the play is also enough to impress the audience, so the faith that can be generated in a single performance is not much worse than that of a religious gathering of the same scale.
Moreover, compared with boring evangelistic meetings, film and television dramas generally have more stamina because of their own interest.
The vast majority of believers attend evangelistic meetings every day. They may leave the gate of the temple immediately and forget what they just listened to, and they will not take the initiative to discuss the doctrine with others.
But people who have watched the movie are different. As long as the movie is good enough, they can't help but pull others to discuss the plot together, and they will also take the initiative to Amway those who have not seen it to watch it again, and share the name of the movie. Lines hang on the lips as a mantra, so "stem" came into being.
A large number of tests in Yanwood City have enabled Lu De to master many key points of applying movies to preach, so he is also more familiar with "creating" the script of "Seven Samurai", making it more suitable for his own requirements.
If there is no accident, all the actors are expected to be in place before the end of April, and the filming will officially start in early May.But how long will it take?Lude is actually not sure.
After all, it was the first time a big girl got on the sedan chair. Lu De thought he was a "good actor" with good enough acting skills, but he really had never been a director.Fortunately, he is both a director and a funder, and there is no pressure from Party A's father who is urging him to die, so there is no psychological pressure.
On the penultimate day of April, the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe finally ended their tour in the capital of the kingdom. In order to end the long journey, Lu De directly sent the red dragon Amymi to the capital to pick them up.
A while ago, Lu De asked the dwarves to customize a set of manned pods, which can carry 150 passengers and about [-] cubic meters of cargo that does not exceed eight tons at a time.With this thing, Amy Mi directly transformed into an Airbus.
It is said that when she went to the capital to pick up people, it caused quite a commotion. Even King Duran came out to watch the fun and asked who Amy Mi took orders from?
So Amy mi skillfully took out a business card from the jacket pocket of her vest and handed it to the king. The four big characters were gilded on it, and the king scratched his head when he saw it.
"Shunfeng Express?"
End of this chapter
On the day the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe arrived in Pine Town, Lu De went to "Tinglongping" to greet them in person.As soon as Amy put the manned pod on the ground, a large group of people rushed out of the cabin, ran directly to the nearby open space, and vomited.
Fortunately, Lu De had been prepared for a long time, and immediately asked the medical staff who had been on standby for a long time to come forward for rescue, and then quickly controlled the situation.
It is different from a few months ago when Lu De and his party flew to Yanmu City in a pod. The passengers at that time were all "non-human" except Lu De, so let alone the cricket's airflow fluctuations, it is continuous cobra maneuvers, everyone can do the same. His face remained unchanged.
But Amy Mira's trip was different. There were a total of 140 and seven passengers in the manned pod, all of whom were ordinary people.Even with Amy Mi driving the dragon's unique wind shield to protect her, the stability of the pod is still not comparable to that of modern civil aviation airliners on the earth, so it is inevitable that some passengers will "sick dragon" .
In fact, the situation was good at the beginning. Although most of the passengers were not used to going to the sky, they felt uneasy but not unbearable. Some people were even very excited. After all, this is an experience that ordinary people cannot enjoy.
However, this harmonious situation was quickly broken. A 24-year-old boy who was not feeling well in his stomach suddenly broke down on the way to go to the toilet, and like a Boomer, he sprayed "spray" on the entire row of passengers in front of him. " came out, and the pod lost control in an instant.
This tragic "air accident" led to the temporary "total extinction" of the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe. It took nearly a week of recuperation for everyone to recover.
Although a few unpleasant things happened on the way here, everyone has a good impression of Pine Tree Town. Unlike Yanmu City, which has tall and majestic walls and various magnificent buildings, the town is clean and tidy. People feel very comfortable.
And this kind of cleanliness and tidiness is not only reflected in the streets and buildings, but also in the local residents.
Under Lude's persevering teaching, the locals in Pine Tree Town have developed very good hygiene habits. Love to bathe and drink plenty of hot water is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In addition, Lude vigorously promotes agriculture and basic education, making the local people The image and temperament have undergone many changes unconsciously.
Those members of the song and dance troupe who hadn't been here before were surprised to find that there seemed to be no "poor people" in Pine Tree Town, and the local people's appearance was surprisingly high, especially the senior students of Brewster College. He is a son of a nobleman.
All right!Some of them were indeed sons of nobles.
The return of the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe has been warmly welcomed by the locals. Many townspeople still miss the grand performance of the previous year and look forward to seeing the wonderful performance of the Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe.And Sevis did have this plan, and in the second week after the rest of the troupe, she staged "King of the Grotto" on the stage of the Dragon and Dwarf Opera House.
On the day of the performance, the huge open-air opera house was full of seats. In addition to the locals who had become rich in the past few years, there were also many dwarf brothers who came from the underground city next door to watch the show. The High Priest Wennig is here.
However, the two of them didn't come here just to watch the show, but after watching the show, they said that they had some important matters and hoped to ask the supernatural Luther to lead them for advice.
In the current Steel Whip Clan, more than [-] dwarves have all converted to the Three Goddesses, which is the main source of belief for the Three Sisters.This is all thanks to the patriarch and the high priest taking the lead, and the top leaders on both sides of the church and state have spoken, and the dwarves below naturally echoed.
However, when Gulig, who completed the religious reform of his clan, took the initiative to contact other dwarf clans in other places, hoping that they would also join him in rebelling against his mother earth, he was embarrassingly rejected one after another.
Most of the leaders of these clans are not interested in Gulig’s joint proposal. Even if he took out the video of the last words of the last dwarf king Koberi and told them the hidden historical truth, the other party would still hesitate after a moment Abandoning the belief in the Goddess of the Earth.
There are even some who will turn around and persuade Gulig to be more rational, think more about their own people, and never do "stupid things".
It wasn't until then that Gulig finally realized sadly that not all dwarves were like him.
The average lifespan of a dwarf is about 200 years, but 300 years have passed since the end of the war of gods, which means that the older generation of dwarves who used to live in the land of the dwarf kingdom have all returned to dust, and the new generation of dwarves including Gulig , Only by relying on some remaining ancient books can we know that they once had such a glorious country.
And Gulig's father, who used to be a mid-level officer in the Dwarf Kingdom's Guards, was unable to participate in the Battle of the Valley of Tears due to injury, and escaped by luck. However, he also witnessed the disintegration of the entire Dwarf Kingdom.
Gulig still remembers that in his old age, his father often sat alone in the study, looking at a dilapidated military flag and crying, and the last words he uttered while clutching the military flag before he died were even more so. Let Guliger never forget it.
"I'm sorry Your Majesty, we failed to defend the country..."
Therefore, after Gulig learned the truth about the destruction of the dwarf kingdom, he was filled with anger and unwillingness. He could not tolerate himself and his people continuing to believe in a shameless evil god who had betrayed their people.
But the patriarchs of other clans felt more fear after learning the truth. They felt that since the dwarf kingdom that was so powerful 300 years ago was destroyed by the gods, the dwarf clan that has now declined to the point of relying on the human race to survive, There is no strength to challenge the gods.
Don't they hate the Mother Earth?
It's not that I don't hate, but I don't dare at all!
As for the "new backer" that the Steel Whip Clan said, the so-called Three Goddesses of Craftsmanship and the Pantheon, they feel that they should wait and see carefully for a while, who knows if they really have the strength to fight against the Mother Earth.
The implication is, let the three goddesses fight with the Mother Earth first, and I will believe whoever wins.
Mentioning the experience of bumping into walls everywhere, Gulig and Winig felt angry that their once proud compatriots had become so spineless, and the two couldn't help but cursed in front of Lude.
"This bunch of shrinking turtles! It's an embarrassment to the dwarves! I can't wait to send a dozen battle puppets over there, and send them all to the sky!"
"That's right! How can a group of gutless rats, together with this group of insects, restore the glory of the dwarves?"
The two big dwarves scolded the group of clans that were unwilling to unite with them, while Lude secretly felt sorry for his desk that was about to be smashed by the two of them, while trying to appease the two. A curmudgeon.
End of this chapter
Under Lude's consolation, the two dwarves finally calmed down.
Lude was not at all surprised that the two of them ran into walls everywhere, and it was completely reasonable.
Gulig’s hatred for the Mother Earth is based on national hatred and family hatred. This middle-aged dwarf cynic was influenced by his biological father since he was a child, and he has a national sentiment in his heart. Although he has always served the Duran royal family, he has never Did not give up the ideal of recovering the dwarf kingdom.
In addition to the ideal of restoring the dwarven kingdom, Gulig has always had a grudge against the goddess of the earth, and feels that the dwarves should no longer recognize thieves as their mothers and continue to believe in this treacherous evil god.
But the dwarves of other clans may not have his feelings and courage, and they dare not offend the gods who are high above them. Therefore, they all keep a respectful distance from Gulig who is trying to confront the Mother Earth.
Fortunately, Gulig is still a bit of a force, and he didn't shout all over the world. The few clan chiefs he visited before and after were all old brothers who had always had good personal relationships.Therefore, for the sake of their old friendship, although they rejected Gulig's joint proposal, at least they did not betray him.
"Don't be so angry. Fear is a human instinct. Not everyone has enough courage to overcome it. Speaking of which, you have only come into contact with the upper echelons of these dwarf clans, right?"
"That's right. After all, it's not easy to make a big fuss about it. We can't make it known to everyone, can we?"
"Then it's better to change the way of thinking. Since the upper classes of these clans are generally conservative and unwilling to take part in risky actions, what about the lower-level dwarves? Especially those younger generations who are full of blood, you can try to contact them directly. Try to bring them over."
Lude knew that although the dwarves were divided into clans, the members of the clan below were not allowed to move around. As long as there was no deep hatred between them, the flow of personnel was actually quite frequent.
For example, the Steel Whip clan led by Gulig, because his brother-in-law is the patriarch of the Golden Ax clan, so there are many dwarves of the Golden Ax clan on his side, and his two nephews, Jon and Charlotte, are now following him , while High Priest Wennig is from his mother's natal copper rod clan.
Gulig can give full play to his own advantages. He is the hereditary viscount of the Kingdom of Duran, and he has his own fiefdom. He has an ancient dwarf city in his hand, so he is very popular among the dwarves.
You can let go of the rebellion against the Mother Earth, and only publicize the national rejuvenation of the dwarves to the outside world, and let the young people come over first.
It just so happens that there is a film company on Lude's side, and they can cooperate with the Steel Whip Clan in external publicity that is beneficial to both parties.
So the two dwarf brothers decided to stay in Pine Tree Town for a while longer, one is to travel with public funds and relax a little, and the other is to watch Lude make a movie.But they were more interested in the equipment than the film itself.
Cameras and projectors, the dwarves actually have similar things, but the production process of the memory crystal is extremely complicated, and it needs a top alchemist with a high level of magic to make it. In addition, the image is only inside the crystal ball and cannot be projected like It is projected on a large screen like an instrument.
Dwarves are notoriously obsessed with technology, and it can almost be said to be a label of the dwarf race, but this is not a "stereotype", but a national consensus reached through education.
You must know that dwarves have enjoyed many dividends brought about by technological advantages since ancient times.Even now that the kingdom has been destroyed for hundreds of years, they can still live comfortably in the human country with various exquisite craftsmanship.Some countries even expressly stipulate that dwarves residing in their own country will be given "super-national" preferential treatment, just to attract them to come to their own country to play.
After all, blacksmiths are an important human resource in the military field, and the level of blacksmiths is also related to the equipment level of the army. Naturally, the more "high-end technical talents" like dwarves, the better.
Seeing that Gulig was interested in these two machines, Lu Dexin said that the master has been waiting for you to use them for a long time. He immediately said boldly that there is no secret between himself and the dwarf brothers, and he can provide the relevant technical drawings to Steel Whip for free. The clan is also willing to order [-] projectors at the price of [-] gold coins each, and will continue to add more in the future.
The reason why Lu De was so generous, as if he wanted to send money to the Steel Whip Clan, was because he had a long-term perspective.
Compared with the various benefits that movies can bring, the production profits of these two machines are nothing to mention, and it doesn't matter if they are all handed over to the Steel Whip Clan. The production capacity is used to produce projectors, and these thousand projectors will be produced as soon as possible.
At the request of Lu De, Brother Pictures plans to build [-] movie theaters in the Duran Kingdom this year, covering all large and medium-sized towns with a population of over [-] in the country. Each movie theater needs at least five projectors, one thousand Taiwan is actually a conservative figure.
It has to be said that the wealth accumulated by the Brotherhood in the past nearly 200 years is quite amazing. The cash stored in the secret vault alone has hundreds of thousands of gold coins, and there are even more rare treasures and real estate.Although the source of these money is not clean, basically related to pornography, gambling and drugs, but it should be used.
Lude had known for a long time that the dwarves would be interested in the projector, so he gave them the technology and asked them to contribute to the manufacture.
