let go of that priestess

"It's time for us to draw up the script and procedure for the next ceremony. Also, since it is confirmed that the Dayue Clan will be able to come, we should tell the villagers of Damu Village about it."

......

Regarding the script and procedure of the ceremony, after Ji Cheng drafted it, Jiang Xue and Jiang Lulu passed it to Yingying's Council Office for detailed deliberation, and then sent back the detailed case.

After repeating this several times, it took a few days to finally finalize the plan, and two more sets of records to prevent accidents from happening. After a few days, the construction of the council hall was finally completed.

Ji Cheng brought Jiang Hongdou and Honglian, accompanied by all the staff of the Council Hall, to do the project completion inspection.

A group of people set off from the residence, and the scene of their arrival has changed drastically.

A large amount of open space has been left around the hillside where the 'Shenju' is located for future renovations, and the house where Jiang Lulu and Jiang Xue lived has been converted into a formal communications office.

More peripherally, the wall used to divide the boundary extends to the river behind the 'Shenju', including all the private enclosures.

And the dirt road coming down from the hillside has now become a gentle staircase paved with wooden planks.

When you reach the last step, you go down the hillside. Looking to the right, you can see the residential area leading to the village, the middle leads to the central square, and the right is next to the council hall.

Lu Gong, who was in charge of the project of the council hall, led his people to wait here. When he saw a group of people coming, he walked quickly to meet them.

"I have seen you, my lord, my lord, my lord Honglian!"

Lu Gong stood upright, saluted standardly and said: "Lu Gong, the leader of the preparatory construction team, will be the accompanying explainer for this acceptance work, everyone please follow me.

First of all, here, we have to go up a section of 15 steps. In order to highlight the importance and formality of the Council Hall, the overall terrain of the Council Hall has been raised by 2.25 meters. Considering comfort and safety, the height of each step of the steps Set at 15 cm, the table width is 30 cm. "

While listening to the explanation, everyone walked forward with Lu Gong, and finally spent more than two hours walking around the inside and outside of the council hall.

On the whole, the shape of the council hall is a hollowed-out cuboid, like a piece of toast, with the middle hollowed out, and the remaining

In terms of construction difficulty, this shape does not exceed the construction level of the current preparatory construction team, but in terms of appearance experience, it is different.

In the three-story building, the 'doughnut' part is the offices of various departments of the Council Hall, and the hollow part in the middle is used as a passage for employees to walk back and forth. At the same time, tables and chairs are set up in the four corners to divide the staff rest area.

In addition, although the outside of the council hall looks regular and boxy, the treatment of the walls is irregular and there are many changes. There are three big characters in the hall, and the right half is filled with cylinders.

If it wasn't for the lack of lighting, Ji Cheng almost thought he was visiting a modern building.

A little shock, more of a surprise.

Everyone felt the same. Although I couldn't say what was good about it, I still felt that this building was very powerful.

"My lord, what do you think?"

Lu Gong explained in detail for more than two hours. At this moment, beads of sweat were seeping on his forehead and his lips were dry.He swallowed, feeling a little apprehensive.

Although everyone's expressions can already tell that they are satisfied with the Council Hall, they still want to hear the final evaluation from the adults.

Hearing Lu Gong's words, Ji Cheng came back to his senses, nodded his head, and expressed his appreciation.

"Very nice! It has a sense of formality and art! It is well built!"

"Huh..." Lu Gong heaved a sigh of relief, and grinned: "Then, can you announce that the acceptance inspection is over?"

"Hey wait a minute."

Ji Cheng tilted his head slightly to look at the council hall, rubbed his chin and pondered for a while, and said, "Although the building is very good, I think we need to add something."

"Huh?" Gong Lu was taken aback for a moment, then immediately put away his relaxed expression and said seriously:

"My lord, tell me what else to add, I'll immediately start the preparatory construction team!"

"Don't be nervous." Ji Cheng smiled, pointed to the three big characters of the Council Hall on the wall above, and said: "It's in that

"Proverbs?"

"It's the words of remonstrance and admonition, so that employees can see it every day when they come to work, so as to establish the work style of the Council."

"Oh." Lu Gong was stunned, "Which words are they?"

"Don't forget the original intention and keep the mission in mind."

......

In the afternoon, the preparatory construction team hung the eight-character motto written by the adults on the wall, and Ying Ying led the staff of the council hall to settle in one after another. They finally had a formal working place, and they were still in such a beautiful building.

The priestesses seemed a little excited, and after they had sorted out the work-related materials and their own moods, they began to direct and arrange the ceremony venue in the central square.

The awards ceremony at the end of winter will also be held on the same day today.

Chapter 155: End of Winter Awards Ceremony

The central area of ​​Damu Village was divided into a square land a long time ago, and until now, the central square finally has the appearance of a square.

To the north of the square is a semicircular speech platform, with it as the center of the circle, 5 meters away, there are circles of steps from low to high in the same semicircle——

If any ceremonies or ceremonies are held, these steps can be used by the villagers to stand around, so that even if there are a lot of people gathered, the people behind can stand on higher steps and clearly see the speech on the central platform.

Behind the podium is the road leading to the Council Hall. Two office reception desks are set up on both sides of the road, and two huge notice boards are erected outside the reception desks respectively. Any new instructions for adults etc. will be posted here.

......

At night, according to the custom of the Damu people who are always used to offering sacrifices at night, the first end-winter awards ceremony officially began.

From the podium to the outer steps, the bonfire is continuous and bright.

The villagers entered the venue in an orderly manner under the guidance of the guides of the Council Hall. When all the villagers were present, two rows of torches lit up on the road leading to the Council Hall behind the podium.

Ji Cheng, Jiang Hongdou, and Hong Lian appeared at the end of the road.

This arrangement is intentional——

The lord representing the highest leadership, and the next-level saint, lord Honglian, all came from the council hall, deepening the villagers' perception that the council hall is the core center of the village.

This was the plan that Ji Cheng and the others and Ying Ying had repeatedly deliberated before and finally decided on.

It's just that I thought it was pretty good at the time, but now, at the scene, Ji Cheng suddenly felt a little nervous.

Is it...too formal?

Back then, when the villagers were called for a meeting and divided into groups for the first time, it was really a mess...

After calming down, the two walked to the podium together.

Jiang Hongdou and Hong Lian stopped, while Ji Cheng walked up to the podium alone and put the speech on the podium.

After tidying up his clothes, Ji Cheng held the lecture table with his hands and coughed lightly.

Listening to the guides of the council hall on the other side of the steps, they received the signal arranged in advance and immediately announced loudly——

"The first end-of-winter awards ceremony has begun, and you are welcome to speak!"

The sound fell, and there were enthusiastic applause.

At the request of the City Hall, the villagers were told during rehearsals that they could no longer shout "Da Mu" and could only applaud, and the louder the applause, the more welcome it was.

Thus, Ji Cheng, who was surrounded on the middle stage, felt as if he had walked into a 3D sound room.

Even the applause of these powerful villagers is deafening.

On the other hand, it also shows that in the past year, the prestige of the gods in their minds has not been lowered because of their kindness and friendliness, but has even increased.

After a while, the applause gradually receded under the guidance of the instructor, and Ji Cheng was finally able to speak with some helplessness.

"Villagers of Damu Village, good evening everyone, I am very glad that the first end-winter award ceremony can be successfully held.

First of all, I want to clarify the meaning of the ceremony——

The significance of the awards ceremony at the end of winter is to summarize the past and look forward to the future.

In the past year, we have experienced a lot, innovated a lot, and changed a lot. We must learn from the past experience and lessons, and then do better tomorrow and next year.

And the time was chosen at the end of winter, precisely because we successfully survived the most difficult season of the year and won this year's victory.

In the past, winter represented cold, hunger, and death, but I am very happy to see that this winter, none of the clan members died due to extreme cold.

Villagers of Damu Village, each of you is standing here in good condition. I hope you can understand that the reason for such a change is that we are all moving towards a remarkable, great, and epic cause , Work hard together!

As the Damu tribe changed to Damu Village, settled down, and achieved overproduction, we have evolved from a backward migratory tribe to a civilization!

Here, on behalf of the entire Oki Village, I decide to reward individuals who have performed exceptionally well this year.

The first place is Ying Fan. The reclamation team led by Ying Fan has exceeded the target, and now our fields are still increasing, which provides a great guarantee for our food logistics.

The second place is Ying Na. The breeding team led by Ying Na has frequently innovated breeding technology and expanded the scale of farming in the past year, which also provides a great guarantee for our food logistics.

The third place is Yingying. The council led by Yingying has multiple roles, including but not limited to, compiling new teaching materials, teaching student groups and villagers, managing the village economy, serving as guides for shopping malls, warehouses and other places, drafting Various planning projects and so on have been extremely hard. It can be said that they have been frequently running around in various positions and have made great contributions to the village.

Fourth place..."

......

After about half an hour, the list was finally finished.

It took so long mainly because not only the names were pronounced, but also the credits were listed in detail.

However, although it is a bit troublesome to do so, it is still necessary.

On the one hand, it allows the recipients to gain an unparalleled sense of glory in front of everyone, and then continue to work hard, forming a virtuous circle.

Secondly, it can also let the villagers know what specific contributions the recipients have made, which is convincing.

When you see the recipients receiving contribution points and some special limited products, such as soap, combs, or the latest clothes, vests, coats, etc. for spring, you will only feel yearning, envy and longing, which also forms a virtuous circle .

It is worth mentioning that the above-mentioned limited products and the latest clothes are not mass-produced at present, but are specially prepared for this award.

These things might not be worth mentioning in Ji Cheng's place before, but here, they are very precious.

"Look!"

On the steps of listening to the lecture, a villager exclaimed in a low voice: "What is that!? New clothes, so beautiful!"

"Yu Zhenzhen, you really only care about clothes... I heard about you before. When the village first had protective clothing, you insisted on participating in it for three consecutive days in order not to take off the protective clothing. I collected beehives for about twenty times, and later got pink eye disease and cough disease after being smoked, and was sent to the adults for treatment."

"Oh, I've heard about this too, so it's you! The original words seem to be: protective clothing, beautiful and easy-to-wear protective clothing, team leader, let me pick another beehive, hahaha."

Listening to the laughter of the people around her, Yu Zhenzhen blushed: "What's the matter, what's the matter, I just like beautiful clothes?"

"It's okay, it's okay." A clansman said with a smile: "Everyone likes it, but I'm more envious of those prizes being handed out by adults. I also want to be handed out prizes by adults! It's so close!"

"I'm different, I want them all!"

......

After the prizes were distributed, the sound of the stairs became more and more chaotic, and everyone was discussing excitedly. The director of the council wanted to control the scene and keep everyone quiet, but Ji Cheng sent someone to stop it.

It’s okay to discuss it now. The ceremony is basically coming to an end here, and sharing happiness and joy can make people feel more happiness and joy. For now, it is beneficial and harmless.

In addition, after talking loudly for so long, Ji Cheng's mouth was dry, so he just took a break before proceeding to the last step of the ceremony.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he took a glass of water from Jiang Hongdou and drank it all in one gulp. When everyone calmed down, Ji Cheng said again:

"The discussion was very heated just now. I don't know if you noticed it. It's just that everyone shared a sentence of joy. Together, the voice of joy will be very loud.

The same is true for us at work. One person's strength is limited, and the strength of many people is great. Everyone should have noticed in this year's work that our manpower is still not enough, and there are not a few people with multiple jobs. Then, the new What should we do this year?

It doesn't matter, now everyone can be more casual, the same as before, but you have to raise your hand to speak, and come one by one-you come first. "

Ji Cheng pointed to a villager who raised his hand first, and that person said loudly:

"My lord, I think we have to work hard to have a baby!"

"En." Ji Cheng responded without expressing any opinion, this speech was expected——

Just leading Damu Village for one year is not enough for these people to dare to diverge their thinking, speak freely, and put forward reliable suggestions and ideas in the past sacrifices and the current ceremony.

Therefore, it is necessary to arrange some support in advance.

"Okay, you say it too."

"My lord, I don't think it's okay to have children indiscriminately. We need family planning to avoid too many people. We can't afford it. Having too many children will affect our work."

"Well, this is good."

"My lord, I think having children can solve the population problem in the future, but it can't solve the current problem. Therefore, we have to find another way to solve the current predicament."

The villager who stood up at last paused, looked around and said:

"We should absorb people from the outside world, and expand Damimura more directly!"

"This...you mean, you want Damu Village to go to war with other tribes?"

Some villagers were surprised that Zaizhong did not raise their hands to speak as required. As soon as the words came out, the scene was quiet for a moment, and then various noisy discussions appeared.
