The strong and brilliant sound and light effects completely shocked the Hainan residents of this era. There was a sea of ​​people around the screening venue. Although the Mandarin broadcast from the speakers could not be understood by the locals, this did not prevent them from focusing on watching Western scenes. The Spring Festival Gala program has always been

The emphasis on "appreciating both refined and popular tastes" also played a great role here. In addition to sketch programs that were completely incomprehensible to locals and popular songs that Ming Dynasty people might not be able to accept, other elegant arts such as traditional singing and dancing, acrobatics, and operas all won over the audience.

Cheers. After all, art is universal. As long as conditions permit, the appreciation ability of people in the Ming Dynasty will not be any worse than that of modern people.

County Magistrate Cheng Yegao also quietly appeared at the venue. The county magistrate originally wanted to show off his official airs and ask his servants to clear a space to build a box or something, but in the end, even the most timid subordinates ignored the ban and crowded directly beside him.

He went. Other people did not take him seriously. In the end, Magistrate Cheng Da had no choice but to smile bitterly and "have fun with the people".

Professor Li once invited him to sit in the team of time-travelers, and he would have a front-facing position, but he was declined. The county magistrate still had deep concerns about the elusive imperial guards of the Ming Dynasty, and did not dare to openly communicate with the time-travelers.

touch.

During the entire four-and-a-half-hour Spring Festival Gala, not a single audience member left in the middle. On the contrary, more and more people gathered, and in the end, even the surrounding tree trunks and roofs were full of people. When the New Year's bell rang, more and more people gathered together.

When the fireworks went off, the deafening sound of firecrackers came from the speakers and around the square at the same time. The chemistry team specially made hundreds of fireworks for this moment, and they were also released into the sky at this time, causing countless cheers.

Generally speaking, the cultural promotion plan of this night was quite successful, but the scene after the final screening was quite funny - all the walls were crowded with men in an instant, and there was the sound of water flowing everywhere. Even Magistrate Cheng

He was so disrespectful that he crowded together with a group of old farmers. Old Jack was very worried and said that if he really followed what the chairman wanted: to show movies to the local people more often in the future, he might have prostatitis in Lingao.

rate increased significantly.

This public screening was part of the idea of ​​"integrating into the local area" proposed by Jie Xi, and Pang Yu was responsible for arranging the specific plan. The effect was quite good, and even many years later, local people often talked about this strange night——

Let them see the life lived by the gods in heaven.

Of course, everything has two sides. From the same thing, some people will benefit from it, while others will be unlucky because of it - Mr. Ye Gao, the magistrate of Cheng County, got into trouble because of what the time travelers did, and there were more than one!

First of all, it was early the next morning, which was the first day of the Lunar New Year. When Mr. Cheng was still reminiscing about the sound and light feast last night, he suddenly realized that something was not right with his family. The maids and ladies were all gathered together.

No one who was whispering seemed to be surprised by what he mentioned.

After all, Cheng Yegao was a county magistrate who had tried the case. He didn't waste much effort in getting his servants to tell the truth - all the female family members and servants who were supposed to stay at home sneaked out to watch a "movie" last night.

, I still watched it mixed with those poor people with poor legs. This made Mr. Cheng very angry. The so-called scholarly family, poetry and etiquette are passed down to the family. These days, even the women of the wealthy family who have a little bit of money are not allowed to do so.

Those who are exposed to the public, let alone the female family members of dignified officials!

If it weren't for the fact that you must not get angry on the first day of the new year, because getting angry will bring bad luck for the whole year, Master Cheng will definitely ask a monk to teach the female servants a lesson. Finally, the anger finally calmed down, and he just had lunch and wanted to take a rest.

Just as I was about to go back to sleep, the Yamen Li Master hurried over and brought even more bad news:

Villagers and people from eight villages and towns nearby are gathering in Lingao County, and even people from as far away as Chengmai and other neighboring counties in Danzhou are rushing over to see what they are doing - to see the "movie" painting!

What is the fastest spreading thing in the world?

——Rumor! There is no doubt that it is a rumor. The stronger the wind, the faster the rumor.

Cheng Yegao may have never heard of this proverb, but he definitely understands it now.

During the Chinese New Year, villagers and farmers will definitely visit relatives and visit each other. When old friends meet, they will definitely talk about what they want to talk about - of course, they will talk about what they saw last night.

"After living for half a lifetime, I finally see what the Queen Mother looks like... Her smile is so sweet, as if she has a piece of honey in her mouth..."

"I've seen Nuwa, too...that big red dress...tsk tsk."

Then there was a very lively talk - something that both parties had seen.

What if it were someone who hadn't watched last night's program - that would actually be better. The person in front could immediately act like he had extreme contempt for the bumpkin, and then let him brag nonsense.

The few imaginations of the country people are fully used, but in the end, some people often believe his nonsense, and the facts they see with their own eyes are unanimously laughed at, and then they swear to break pots and bowls - tonight you

Come and see it with me, don’t touch the painting and I’ll rip off your head...and so on.

In short, when Magistrate Cheng finally realized what the consequences of the combination of the speed of rumor spreading and people's curiosity would be, more than two thousand outsiders had gathered in Lingao County under his jurisdiction, and Lingao County

The population of Gao County itself is only over 10,000. What’s even more frightening is that this number is still increasing.

The Ming Dynasty government has always strictly controlled population mobility. It is said that "agriculturists must not go beyond one mile." The "Da Ming Huidian" even stipulates: "Any exchange of soldiers and civilians, but if they go more than a hundred miles, they will be cited."

, If there is no quotation, he will be captured and sent to the official. Everyone is still allowed to report it first. Those who find the truth will be rewarded, and those who condone will be punished with the same crime."

To put it bluntly, Zhu Yuanzhang himself was born as a homeless man, and he was naturally wary and afraid of homeless people. It should be said that his wariness was not unreasonable. The Ming Dynasty was eventually destroyed by the refugee army. But this time, people suddenly gathered in Xianglingao County.

There are thousands of people. In normal times, they would definitely be suppressed by the army - this is obviously a rebellion!

But now Lingao City can no longer deal with the "rebels", and the farmers have made no secret of their intentions - they all came to see what's new. Many of them are bringing their families with them, and those who experienced it last night haven't waited until dark

They dragged stools and mats out to occupy space. A spontaneous market was quickly formed, and the tax collectors were very happy. Their income has increased significantly since the arrival of these shorthairs.

The county magistrate has a far-sighted vision than the petty officials. Cheng Yegao has always considered himself the smartest scholar in the county, and his master is probably ranked second. Smart people have judgment - last night

Those programs are just for ordinary people to watch and cheer for, but Cheng Yegao has the advantage of basically understanding Mandarin after having talked with Professor Li several times, and roughly understands the meaning of what is said on the audio and video speakers.

It was clearly a commemorative picture for the New Year, and these shorthairs were clearly nostalgic for their previous lives - I have to say that the original living environment of these people was really enviable. If it weren't for the fact that scholars in the Ming Dynasty never believed in ghosts and gods,

Cheng Yegao really wanted to suspect that these people were the likes of those who banished immortals from heaven.

But obviously, this kind of thing is only released on the night of the Chinese New Year to celebrate the occasion. Judging from the reaction of the shorthairs last night, they usually don't put things like this around that make them cry. In other words, today

Those farmers couldn't see anything at night!

Originally, this was the trouble caused by those "short-haired" people, and it had nothing to do with the Lingao County government office. But although those short-haired people looked kind, they were also very smart when killing people. Zhang Baihu, the king of Danzhou in this city,

, who is not a famous brave general, who has repelled the invasion of Japanese pirates and pirates many times, but died silently in the hands of these people. There was a fierce battle in the city that day, and the Ming army's corpses were piled all over the streets, and blood flowed into them.

In the county government compound, it seems that no one of these short-haired people has been damaged... If the people really make trouble, they just need to fire a few powerful firecrackers, and this wave is very likely to happen.

Came for myself.

Cheng Yegao had been an official for more than ten years and was transferred many times in various places during the Ming Dynasty. He was very aware of the trends of these grassroots people - if anything went wrong, it would eventually become a problem for the county government.

What he fears most now is trouble.

After thinking about it, Magistrate Cheng became more and more afraid that on this first day of the new year, let alone being in a good mood, it would be impossible to spend it peacefully. When he was feeling depressed, the confidant who had been with him for many years came to his attention.

The master's words gave him a clear path:

"Dong Weng, do you know that to untie the bell, you need to tie the bell?"

…………

In the evening, the corner door next to the county warehouse compound was knocked secretly. Since the last time someone raided this corner door, the door leaf has been wrapped in iron sheet, and a peephole is installed on it. The person who is responsible for guarding the door today happens to be

It was the little fat man Liu Mingqiang. He cautiously looked out through the door mirror for a long time, only to see two sneaky guys standing at the door. Their heads were wrapped in cloth. He knew at a glance that they were not good people.

Xiao Liu originally didn't want to open the door, but he was very interested in the few pieces of silver stuffed into the crack of the door. This was the first time he had received a bribe in his life. He couldn't accept the money in vain and not help, right?

When the wooden door slowly opened, two wretched figures with their heads exposed quickly stepped in. However, they were shocked as soon as they entered - the little fat man Liu Mingqiang was fully clothed and holding a large Remington shotgun pointed at him.

door.

"Don't...don't be violent! I'm here to visit..."

According to Professor Li Mingyuan, Cheng Yegao's hometown dialect is somewhat similar to Mandarin, but Xiao Liu really couldn't recognize it. The county magistrate changed into casual clothes again, and if it weren't for the brothers who were playing poker in the house, they all came out.

Judging by the fun, several of the commandos had captured the county magistrate before and knew him personally. Magistrate Cheng might be thrown into a prisoner camp to keep company with pirates.

But since they knew each other, everything was easy. Cheng Yegao and the master who accompanied him were politely invited into the main room, and each was given a cup of tea. Then the county magistrate acted like a country bumpkin entering the city.;{Gone with the Wind.
