Goddess Wanhua Mirror

Therefore, as soon as Serves entered the school, she was immediately surrounded by a large group of children, asking questions around her until Lude stepped forward to make a rescue.

"Okay, ok, little guys! You will make my aunt very troubled by asking random questions like this. Do you still remember the rules in class? Raise your hand before you can speak! And auntie is here to visit the school Yes, how can you let people go away like this!"

Under Lude's reminder, the children who were a little overexcited finally calmed down.While Serves thanked Lude for saving her, she also slandered the two words of "auntie" just now.

At this time, the previous bell rang again, and Servis didn't know why, while the children around collectively let out a long sigh of disappointment, and then turned their heads and walked towards the classroom.

Lude looked at Sevis, who was in a daze, and took the initiative to explain to her.

"This is the bell for class, the students are going to the next class."

"My lord, please forgive my ignorance, but what do these children mainly learn here?"

"Depending on the age and knowledge level, the things to learn are different. The middle and lower classes are mainly literacy education, teaching reading, writing and arithmetic. In the process of learning these basic knowledge, children will gradually understand what they are good at, so that they can use it in the next stage. After entering the advanced class, you can choose a craft independently."

"In other words, your school is training craftsmen?"

"It can be said that this is actually a technical school."

"But... just Songshu Village itself, do we need so many craftsmen? Or should we send them outside to look for work after they finish their studies?"

"I have no intention of sending them away. In fact, these children are pre-cultivated talents for the development of the village. Talents are a precious asset that can never be too much. Believe me, we will use them. "

End of this chapter

Although he was an undercover policeman in his previous life, Lu De, like many compatriots in the country, is a firm and hopeless industrial party.

Therefore, after mastering the actual management rights of Pine Tree Village, Lu De did not put all his energy on preaching, so he did not settle for the status quo, thinking that a little wealth would be safe, but decisively used the existing influence and contacts, Pulling resources to carry out infrastructure construction in the local area, so as to pave the way for subsequent economic development.

While trying to lead the villagers out of poverty and become rich, Lu De did not ignore people's spiritual needs.After all, human beings are not machines, and it is impossible to work overtime without complaint by the chairman.Therefore, it is also necessary to consider how to let the villagers relax physically and mentally after work.

In view of this, Lude is actually very happy to see the performance of the Rainbow Circus in Pine Village. Even if they did not take the initiative, Lude would pay for them to perform two local performances.

However, Lu De's pursuit of culture and art is not just to let the more than 3000 villagers in Songshu Village relax occasionally.Because art is also the most powerful propaganda tool, and it can play an unimaginable role in foreign missionary work.

Restricted by the limitations of the times, the preaching methods of traditional sects in this world are almost uniformly based on preaching, and the main competition is who has the loudest voice.

As for cultural and entertainment activities such as singing and dancing performances, the vast majority of religious people only regard them as pastimes in their spare time, and have never thought about using them as a means of preaching.

What's more, in the eyes of certain sects that advocate asceticism and asceticism, any entertainment activities are the temptation of the devil to human beings, so they strictly order their believers to stay away from these terrible sources of corruption.

Fortunately, this kind of ascetic sects are generally unpopular, so it is difficult to expand their scale, otherwise the world will definitely become very boring.

As a time traveler, Lu De is naturally very aware of the huge role of culture and entertainment in spreading ideas.He still remembers that when he was a student, it was the most rampant heyday of the public intellectual leader party in China.Except for the so-called "opinion leaders" who collect money to make waves on the Internet, in fact, more people are brainwashed by the entertainment products of Western developed countries.

And this kind of propaganda method usually has a special term, which is called "cultural export".

Lu De also liked Hollywood blockbusters very much. In fact, he often watched them when he grew up and started working. But when he was an ignorant student, he really believed that the US imperialist army was the "messenger of justice" to defend world peace. A cool and handsome soldier armed to the teeth, beat the crap out of criminals, dictators and aliens.

On the other hand, looking at the army of your own country, it is really soiled from head to toe!

The military channel of CCTV broadcasts "Getting Rich" every day to teach breeding, and a certain army held a big military competition, and even let a few cooks from the cooking class become the champions. How can such a people's army look like it has combat effectiveness?This made Lu De, who was still in junior high school at the time, feel deeply worried!

certainly!After growing up, Lu De gradually saw through these tricks as his vision continued to expand, and he would have fun watching American Emperor's main theme blockbuster, but he couldn't deny that he was also a person who had been fooled.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't like the American emperor. This doesn't mean that Lu De can't imitate the methods of the American emperor in another world. Since no opponent has noticed the importance of the cultural front, he is completely preemptive.

However, although the idea is good, a big problem lies in front of Lu De, that is, he lacks a corresponding "professional team" around him.

Despite receiving more than 30 years of modern cultural influence in his previous life, and having experienced the information age brought by the Internet, Lu De has mastered a reserve of knowledge beyond imagination in the eyes of outsiders. He always feels like an old man. Know a little about everything.But some things just know is useless!

For example, when making kilns and firing pottery, Lu De, because his grandparents were pottery workers, had seen the local firing techniques in the countryside when he was a child, and even made a vase with his own hands under the guidance of his grandfather. It took a while to start from scratch by myself, and finally managed to succeed with the help of the masons in the village.

The same is true of Bank, the blacksmith who later moved to the village. Lude also provided him with a lot of "genius ideas" that amazed the other party, and continued to help the blacksmith shop in the village improve the craftsmanship. , in accordance with Lude's suggestion to try "indigenous steelmaking".

The craftsmen all think that Lu De is a knowledgeable instructor, and he generously imparts these high-end skills to them, but Lu De knows in his heart that he is not so much an instructor as a staff member. Operation, I am afraid that there will be a lot of fools in the early and mid-term.

So when Lude found out that Serves, the circus owner, not only had a group of skilled performers under him, but also a singer and dancer with a good rhythm, he had just watched the performance last night and thought With the idea of ​​​​wooing the other party for his own use.

The easiest and rudest way to recruit this kind of performing arts group is undoubtedly to throw a bag directly in front of Serves, and then, like a nouveau riche, say arrogantly, "I want to support you myself"!

But Lude could see that Serves was not the kind of person who sold both art and body. If she really wanted to do this, the other party would most likely refuse on the spot, and then angrily left Pine Tree Village overnight with her circus.

Just when the other party came to the school, Lu De felt that this was an opportunity.

Under Luther's personal guidance, Servis toured around the school.There are currently 310 students in the entire college, accounting for [-]% of the school-age population in the village. There are also some older students who still want to learn, and Lu De also made an exception to allow them to enroll.

The next step for Lude is to recruit children from surrounding villages, and at the same time hold some literacy classes for adults and help the adults in the village to read.

Serves looked all the way, but she was not very interested in the basic education that the children were receiving.Due to professional needs, Servis herself is literate, but even she herself doesn't think this is a great skill.Because of the common sense in this world, literacy is not a necessary skill for ordinary people to live.

But Sevis soon discovered the place she was interested in - a music classroom with many musical instruments.

"Master Priest, do you still teach playing here?"

"Uh...there is a plan, but we are short of a teacher."

Lu De scratched his cheek. There are more than 3000 people in Songshu Village, but they can't find anyone who can seriously understand music. The only musical instrument they can use is the drum. Therefore, no matter what is important or not in the village, they can use musical accompaniment The place is all relying on drumming, full of the atmosphere of African tribes.

With Lude's permission, Serves entered the music classroom, and at a glance, she saw that there seemed to be an array of musical instruments in the room, all of which were brand new.She casually picked up a lyre, and fiddled with ten nimble fingers on the strings, causing it to emit a very pleasant melody.

"You play really well, Miss Servis. If I hadn't known that you would be leaving in a few days, I would really like to hire you as a music teacher in our school."

"Master Priest, you really know how to joke. With my three-legged cat level, how can I be qualified to be a teacher for others!"

"Haha! You are too modest."

The two chatted seemingly casually in the music classroom. Lude knew that a busker like Serves must have a lot of knowledge, and he is a related practitioner. He must be more knowledgeable than businessmen and adventurers. Understand the status quo of the entertainment industry in various countries.

Through Servis, Lude learned that in the current human world, the southern empire is undoubtedly the cultural leader. From her description, it is obvious that the developed areas of the empire have signs of a renaissance.This powerful and wealthy country has been very popular with operas in recent years. The capital of the empire has also established the world's largest opera house for this purpose. It is said that even the emperor often goes to watch it.

It is worth mentioning that the old emperor of the empire died of illness last winter. Due to some undisclosed special reasons, the imperial edict left by the old emperor did not choose a successor from among several popular electors, but let a person who had been kept secret before. The illegitimate son who was fostered in a noble family in the countryside sat on the throne.

The several electors naturally refused to agree, but they couldn't bear the fact that the commanders of the four major front armies of the empire took their own troops to swear allegiance to the new emperor collectively.The real military superiority made them hold back.

Lude, who lives in the northern part of the kingdom, heard this news for the first time after more than half a year, and he couldn't help feeling a little nostalgic in his heart. When people were on the earth in their previous lives, they would be able to find out by swiping their phones while lying under the covers. The convenience of things in the world.

"That is to say, opera is very popular in the empire now?"

"That's right! And if the empire takes the lead, it won't take a few years for the surrounding countries to follow suit. I'm not afraid of your jokes. Even our circus, which mainly performs acrobatics, has recently tried to cater to the changes. taste, trying to incorporate opera elements into the performance.”

What Servis was talking about was the finale show "The Canary Who Sings Love Songs" last night.However, she herself admitted that the script she used was very clichéd. It was a very routine love story. Servis asked a third-rate playwright to help write it, and she could only hire a writer of this level.

"For a well-received and well-received opera, excellent scripts and excellent actors are indispensable, but these days there are not many people who can even read, and there are even fewer playwrights who can write good stories. And to be honest, Doing writing is much worse than our performing arts. Performing acrobatics without talent can rely on hard work, but without talent in writing, you really can’t eat this bowl of food. So those who do this business are some nobles who have money and leisure , Write it for fun as a hobby, people like us can’t get in touch with it at all.”

"If you put it that way, I know a genius playwright."

"Who?"

"His name is...William Shakespeare!"

End of this chapter

William Shakespeare, for the earthlings in the 21st century, is a well-known name. He is one of the representatives of the European Renaissance, a world-renowned outstanding playwright and poet, and 37 comedies and hundreds of poems have been handed down.

certainly!For a group of mobile game players, the most famous deed of this British guy is probably that he wrote the "absurd × book (allusion comes from "Henry VI")" that made Jeanne d'Arc pregnant!

Leaving aside the nonsense of the black family, the French Anti-British Saintess, Shakespeare's achievements in drama and literature are beyond doubt.Lu De still remembers that his junior high school head teacher in his previous life was a Shakespeare fan. The summer homework assigned to them in the first year of junior high school was to read "The Complete Works of Shakespeare" through.

Therefore, Lu De has read all the well-known works of Shakespeare, and he can't recite them verbatim, but he still remembers the general plot and most of the classic lines, so as early as last winter, Lu De Work has already begun to reproduce these classic works from the earth.

But this is not the earth after all, and Shakespeare's fame is not big enough to travel across the world, so Serves looked at a loss after hearing this name.

"Uh... I'm sorry, my lord, forgive me for my ignorance, this Mr. Shakespeare... Which country is he a playwright?"

"It doesn't matter which country he is from. Besides, Mr. Shakespeare has passed away for many years. It is also because of a chance that I read the manuscript left by him, and I know that there are such geniuses in this world."

"That is to say... You have never met this playwright named William Shakespeare?"

"Yes, but the old man is fortunate to have read many of his works left behind, so although they were born at different times, they have been friends for a long time!"

"..."

Although she had never heard of Shakespeare's name, but since Lu De admired it so much, Serves thought she must have some skills, so she asked if she could read the manuscript left by the master.

But Lu De expressed regret that the manuscript is not here, but he can choose one of the more representative works to tell her a little bit.

Since Serves said that the current mainstream preference for dramas is romantic dramas, Lu De deliberately chose "Romeo and Juliet".Although this work is not included in Shakespeare's "Four Great Tragedies", it is definitely more famous when it comes to popularity, and it is also Luther's most familiar work!

When Lu De was in the second year of junior high school in his last life, their school held a theatrical performance. The school required that each class in the first and second grades of junior high school must put on a show. Therefore, Lu De’s class decided to perform a drama under the personal opinion of the head teacher who is a Shakespeare fan. , the script is "Romeo and Juliet".

At that time, Lu De was influenced by his class teacher and wanted to be a literary youth, so he was very concerned about rehearsing dramas.In order to be able to play the leading role, he read through the original work many times over and over again, and he also took the role analysis notes following the star master in "The King of Comedy".

But unfortunately, in the end, Lu De failed to play the favorite hero Romeo, but played the heroine Juliet... The pillar under the balcony at home.

It's funny to say that in Lude's school back then, the dean of the student department was a menopausal old maid who ignored other things every day and only focused on catching students' puppy love.

Lu De's homeroom teacher was afraid of offending this guy, and he was really worried that the young boys and girls in the class would really do fake plays and create sparks that shouldn't be there, so they started a "feminine preference" on the issue of casting .All the roles are played by girls in the class, while the boys focus on the principle of participation, either doing chores in the background, or putting on cardboard props.

Many years later, when Lu De thought of this past again, he couldn't help complaining that his junior high school teacher was too "naive".

Do you think there will be no puppy love between girls and girls?

Thanks to this experience, Rudd knows the plot of "Romeo and Juliet" like the back of his hand.Of course, the original work is indeed not long. The domestic translation only has more than 7 words, and the plot is divided into five acts.

However, the contradictions and coincidences set by Shakespeare make the whole story extremely dramatic, and the tragic ending is even more impressive!At the same time, the spiritual core of the story also has a positive side, praising sincere love and friendship, and calling on people to let go of hatred.

So just after listening to Lu De's relatively rough talk about the general outline of the script, Servis was deeply attracted by this tortuous love.If she was still skeptical about the "genius playwright" Lude called before, she is now convinced.

It is indeed a genius level to be able to construct such an exquisite story!Serves couldn't wait to read the real manuscript.

"In terms of manuscripts, I'm afraid I can't show you the original and authentic books written by Shakespeare. I only have some manuscripts. In addition, I will teach mathematics to the students later. Since your Excellency will stay in the village for a few days, then Why don't you make an appointment at school tomorrow morning, I'll bring the manuscript over then."

In fact, given the distance between the school and the temple, as long as Lu De sends someone back now, it will take less than half an hour to bring back the manuscript he put on the bookcase in the basement, but he deliberately delayed it until tomorrow.The main purpose is to whet Serves's appetite, so as to pave the way for further "laying".

Lu De could see that the Rainbow Circus is currently operating well. It may not be as good as the top, but it is definitely more than the bottom. The days are not at the end of the rope.

So in this case, if Lude wants to recruit their circus, it is obviously inappropriate to spend money alone, or there will be misunderstandings, so in addition to throwing money, Lude needs to come up with something else that can attract Se Weiss' stuff, an excellent script is undoubtedly the most suitable choice.

If Servis's Rainbow Circus can be included, Luther will not only provide them with generous funds, but also provide them with excellent scripts to help them transform and upgrade into a first-class song and dance troupe and help them gain fame.

In return, in addition to making money for Lu De, the upgraded Rainbow Song and Dance Troupe will also become a propaganda weapon in his hands, and will help Lu De conquer the city in the cultural field that traditional sects do not pay enough attention to.

And this is just the first step in a series of Lude's plans, he will bring a real "Renaissance" to this world!

The two then chatted about some topics about the current mainstream song and dance dramas. It can be said that they had a very happy conversation, and the atmosphere in the classroom was very lively.

No one noticed that by the small window at the end of the classroom, there were two pairs of big bright eyes secretly watching their every move, whispering something from time to time.

End of this chapter

In the corridor outside the classroom door, Aina and Shanisi are lying on the rear window of the classroom and watching secretly.Looking at the two people in the classroom with a harmonious atmosphere, Shanisi said abruptly.

"Aina, our master seems to be interested in that woman!"

"Ha! What do you mean interesting?"

"You don't even understand this? This is it!"

Shanisi said, making an "OK" with her left hand, and then used the index finger of her right hand to move in and out of the circle on her left hand.Seeing this, Aina froze for a moment, then her fair cheeks quickly turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

For pure Aina, strange knowledge has increased again!

"No, it's impossible, right?"

"I think it's very possible. Don't forget what kind of goddess I am. You have to trust my professional judgment, senior sister! I think as long as no one disturbs them, they should be able to do it soon."

Listening to Shanisi's "professional analysis", Aina couldn't help but believe it when she thought that this guy was the god in charge of love and desire.

Shanisi is still staring at the two people in the classroom with great interest. Although she now has a stable source of belief, the hard days of not getting enough to eat in the past are gone forever, but she doesn't mind eating extra meals once in a while "Coarse food", but Aina at the side felt an inexplicable irritability at this moment.

So by some strange coincidence, Aina stood up suddenly, then strode towards the door of the classroom, and slammed the door open.

"Master, are you there?"

Lude trembled in shock from Aina who broke into the door suddenly, feeling a little guilty for no reason.Servis was also taken aback for a moment, and then recognized Aina as the young nun who had been by her side when they first met Lude.Serves's first impression of her was that she had big breasts. Judging by her nutritional status, she was not a child that could be raised by a poor family. She also had a beautiful face, but she was a bit silly and fufu.

After Aina entered the room, she glanced at Servis with a stern face, and said to the embarrassed Lude in an emotionless voice.

"Master, you still have class later."

"Uh... I know."

"I thought you forgot."

"..."
