Chapter 522
"So, this time to promote the New Deal, the imperial court does not rely on the government, but on us!" Zhu Zhen said loudly:
"And you don't need to think of lyrics yourself! I'll teach you a set of libretto, you memorize it, and then walk around the streets and alleys and sing it to the common people over and over again. I'm sure the publicity effect will be great!"

"The libretto?" The group of beggars felt relieved, as a hand-reaching party, it would be great to have ready-made ones.

"That's our leader's unique skill!" Shu Laibao hastily boasted, "With this skill, he can support the entire gang by himself!"

"So hanging?" The group of beggars' eyes lit up immediately, who wouldn't want to learn such an awesome begging technique?

"Ahem," Zhu Zhen stopped Shu Laibao from bragging, "It's not a unique skill, it's because no one knows it, it's fresh, and the effect is good. If everyone knows it, it won't be so good. Of course, it's better than General Reaching Out is definitely much stronger."

"That's not bad..." The group of beggars still remained undiminished, thinking that we can go to other provinces to beg for food after learning.

"Okay, the leader of this gang will teach you the unique knowledge of our beggar gang-Shu Lai Bao!" Lao Liu cheered up, pulled out a pair of bamboo boards from behind his buttocks, and started to beat them skillfully.

"First there were three queens, but the barbarians turned the world upside down. Fortunately, a Zhu sage was born, who drove away the Tartars and rebuilt the sky!" After a passage, the sixth son opened his voice and sang.That's called a word with a straight accent and full of charm!
"Sage Zhu, he is not a mortal. He is the Jade Emperor who descended from the mortal world, and is the patron saint of our people! He pities our people's hard life, and he hates that the big dogs are not human, so he has to make a yellow book and clear the land again. Good thing, only that big family is not happy!"

Shu Laibao pretended to be a commoner and asked, "Why is the big family unhappy?"

"Because in the old world, the government collected money from big families and helped them hide the land from the court, allowing them to evade taxes year after year. But the court has a fixed amount of taxes and food. If there is less money in the east, the west can make up for it. The poor can only make up for it. I will Would you like to ask?"

"Of course I don't want to." Shu Laibao said: "My family's life is hard, why should I be asked to pay more taxes?"

"That's a good point, you're right. Whoever has a lot of land pays more taxes, and whoever has less fields pays less taxes. Why should I be asked to pay more taxes?" The sixth child continued with a slap in the face:
"Qingzhangmu, the yellow book was created to break the chaos! This way, there is no way to cheat, and of course the big family can't enjoy it!"

"But this is a great thing for our people. From now on, we will pay less tax and no longer have to worry about heavy taxes, let alone sell our children and daughters to sell our land. This day is finally hopeful!"

"Oh, this method is really good, we people thank the emperor for his kindness!" Shu Laibao said.

"Wait a minute, the talk is not over yet." Lao Liu finally sang: "If the yellow book is to be useful, the land must first be cleared! Whoever falsifies and cheats will have no peace of mind! Whoever speaks ill and whoever blocks it will be with us. Big bastards against you, big bastards!"

"But if the old men are messing around, what can we ordinary people do?" Shu Laibao finally asked.

"Don't be afraid, tell us, we will bring officials here tomorrow, confiscate his house and confiscate his fields, half of your property will be confiscated!" the sixth son replied.

~~
On the Tengwang Pavilion, the neck of the fourth child involuntarily followed the plank of the sixth child, stretching and stretching.

"This old sixth is really powerful. How did you come up with such a method?" He looked incredulous.

"Your Highness, there is no need for you to count Laibao together." Luo Guanzhong said speechlessly.

"Oh, is that so? This thing is too magical." The fourth child hurriedly held his neck, and said awkwardly, "I couldn't help singing along."

"Yes, and the libretto is extremely simple. As long as you are willing to memorize it, even the most stupid person will be able to memorize it all in one day." Luo Guanzhong laughed.

"But are these beggars willing to remember?" The fourth child lacked confidence.

"You don't need to worry about this alone, Your Highness." Luo Guanzhong sighed secretly, thinking that your younger brother is best at manipulating people's hearts.

For example, I was fascinated by him, I hated him so much, but I really couldn't leave him...

~~
Lao Liu's method is very simple, each person has a pair of boards, and they memorize section by section.

Those who can skillfully recite three paragraphs before lunch can eat the first-class seats of big fish and big meat.

If you recite two paragraphs, eat a big pot of vegetables with meat and vegetables.

For those who recite a paragraph, there is only black steamed buns with cold water.

As for those who can’t memorize even a paragraph, you’d better go out and beg for food.

In the evening, the standard will be raised to the point where you can memorize all of them, and you can eat first-class seats.

And so on, in descending order.

On the second day, not only do you have to memorize the libretto, but you also have to match it with a board. Only those who can play the board and sing can eat high-quality noodles.

On the third day, Li Jiazhi's libretto was taught, and after another three days of practice, the beggars who participated in the beggars' gang meeting all memorized the two librettos by heart.Of course, the board is still not very proficient, so I can just practice slowly when I go back.

~~
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the conference and the eve of preparing to bring them back.

The sixth child entertained thirteen gang leaders from various mansions in Xingyuan, one is to encourage them to be strong, and the other is to tell them to always keep in mind, the most important supervision link.

"The biggest characteristic of our beggars is that they are undisciplined," Zhu Zhen said to the gang leaders while cutting the meat from the roasted whole lamb, "It is even more inevitable to steal and play tricks."

"Yes, yes." All the gang leaders nodded one after another: "As expected of the chief gang leader, you hit the nail on the head. These two points make people's teeth itch. How about you count on a bunch of beggars, and you will never get anything done?"

"But now we have to rely on helping beggars to get the publicity right." Zhu Zhen said in a deep voice, "I can only rely on you for the supervision work."

"Yes, yes, we will definitely do our best." All the helpers hurriedly responded.

"Fortunately, it's relatively easy to evaluate everyone." But Zhu Zhen changed the subject and handed a plate of barbecue to the hands of the gang leaders:
"My king will rank you according to the overall performance of each prefecture. The prefectures that are advancing the new policy smoothly, that have fewer incidents, and that are well received by the work team will be ranked first, and vice versa."

After a pause, he threw out the bait that all the gang leaders had been thinking about and said: "The top ten can all become the king's guard officers like Shu Laibao. Of course, the higher the ranking, the higher the grade."

"If you can get No.1, I will give you a hundred households!" He said to the gang leader who took the plate with both hands.

"Hey..." The gang leader suddenly felt that the weight of the plate was more than a thousand, and hurriedly held it with all his strength, lest he might lose his job.

"Even if it's No.10, it's still a small flag official like Shu Laibao." Zhu Zhen smiled and pointed to Shu Laibao's official clothes, and said to him alone: ​​"Of course, if you get No.10, This king will give you another level."

"Thank you, Lord." Shu Laibao was overjoyed immediately.

"What about the last three?" the gang leaders asked again.

"Naturally, there is nothing. The rules of my Chu Palace are to raise cattle and dogs, and not to raise idlers." Zhu Zhen said indifferently: "Of course, if everyone behaves well, this king may break the rules."

"Leader, look at it!" At this moment, the enthusiasm of all the chiefs was completely ignited, each of them blushed and their necks were thick, and they rolled up their sleeves and said: "I will not eat or sleep when I go back, and I will stare at them day and night! Who dares to steal If you are slippery, knock on his heavenly cap!"
