Chapter 846

Doing things always needs an example as strength. There are positive and negative examples.

Liwang village, Gaojia village, Chenjia village and Wangxiang village. These four villages on the edge of Jingxi Lianfeng city have become role models and negative role models.

In the assembly hall of the black flag camp commander's Yamen in fengri City, Tang Qingyuan, Chen Sheng, Wang Yiming and Wang Jian gathered together. Shen HaoDuan sat at the top, and their faces were serious.

Just now, Tang Qingyuan, Chen Sheng and Wang Yiming made a report, and then Wang Jian made a supplement. But what several people said is actually almost the same.

"Both the propaganda and the copper cabinet are subject to great resistance. The local people simply ignore us and don't give us some sweets. They stay away from the disaster."

"There is also Mongolian learning. At present, Mongolian learning is only useful in some smaller villages. There are clans in larger villages. Now it has been stimulated by us, but it has increased the scale, which can basically ensure that most of the children in the village go to school."

"It is much more difficult to ban the custom of worshipping God than we expected before. The people simply scoff at the concept of friars, use the" fake style "to turn to the means of the missionary team, but deeply believe in the" God "they believe in."

.....

Shen Hao kept silent, but his eyebrows were frowned from the beginning.

The evil killing plan is a long-term plan aimed at eradicating evil friars in the Jingjiu Dynasty. It should be implemented slowly rather than in a hurry, and it takes a lot of time to make the effect take root slowly. Over time, the soil that evil friars can endure to survive can completely disappear.

So there will be resistance. Shen Hao is psychologically prepared. He has even told Wang Jian and others some suggestions and strategies before, but he still underestimates the stubbornness of the people in remote mountain villages for the customs they have long been accustomed to and the "God" worshipped from generation to generation, and even misses the essence of what seems to be "Customs" but actually "interests".

"So, all the chiefs in each village are furnishings, and the local yamen seriously lack jurisdiction over these remote villages. Even they have always followed the ancestral temple and family law of each village, not the law of the state and the dynasty?" Shen Hao opened his mouth and gently tapped the table with his fingers.

"Yes, sir, this is the case at present. The chief of the village is appointed by the people recommended by the ancestral temple Presbyterian Committee. It is a microphone to deal with local Yamen. In the village, he has no ability to influence the behavior of the villagers. The speakers of each village are still the ancestral temple and patriarch.

Moreover, because the distance is too far away, it is impossible for local Yamen to take care of those villages. They will not appear for more than half a year or even the whole year. All the contradictions in the villages are clan autonomy. No one cares about the law in those villages. "

Shen Hao nodded and then asked, "it is the clan forces in the village that hinder the evil killing plan, isn't it?"

"Yes, my Lord."

One of the main contents of the evil killing plan is to reverse the people's custom of "worshipping God" in remote villages, because it is the soil for breeding evil friars. It is very easy to be secretly used by evil friars, or lured or threatened, or brainwashed. With some evil means, many seedling like reserve forces can be infected from a large number of ordinary people, Then select the ones that can be "created".

However, this "custom" has also become the biggest obstacle to missionary work. Small favors alone could not make the villagers put down the "greeting" of the ancestral temple Presbyterian Council and cater to the propaganda of the black flag camp. Instead, they directly chose to ignore it. It was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the evil killing plan when the people of the propaganda team did not exist.

According to the reports of several people in front of him, Shen Hao realized that he had thought too simple and even fell into the stereotype. Instinctively, he equated the people in the mountains with "ignorance" and "primitiveness", ignoring a very important aspect of human nature: the desire for control.

The desire for control can also be called "the desire for power". This can be seen in many people. The so-called "dignity of the elderly" for the younger generation, from the emperor to the petty officials, and even the elders in the family, is actually a kind of this desire.

Since it is an aspect of human nature, it will not be different because of the living environment and the advantages and disadvantages of life, but exist equally.

It's just that the expression of power desire will change because of the living environment, but the essence will not.

Shen Hao now understands the twists and turns. We also understand that if we want to continue to push forward the evil killing plan, we must break the most basic and essential contradiction.

The custom of "worship God" is similar to a spiritual sustenance. It reposes the people in remote villages' expectations of good weather in the coming year, their desire for health, and their prayers for the prosperity of their children and grandchildren... Of course, there are also some selfish desires that can not be announced to the mouth but can only be kept in the bottom of their hearts.

At present, this spiritual sustenance is not only used by evil friars to recruit disciples, but also used by clan forces in these villages as an effective means to further control the villagers.

This is almost beneficial to the evil friars and clan forces in the case. Evil friars can hide in the dark and choose disciples slowly. The clan forces can more unscrupulously reward, punish and control the villagers with "God's likes and dislikes", which can even cover a brighter reason for all kinds of family rules in the clan.

Now the black flag Camp wants to move the custom of "worshipping God", which has moved a third of an acre of evil friars and changed the interests of those clan forces.

"After all, I still don't want to put down my things." Shen Hao paused and continued, "what are you going to do?"

Tang Qingyuan looked at several people present and saw that they didn't mean to speak first. He stood up and bowed his hands and said, "my Lord, my subordinates think that the clan forces have an irreconcilable conflict with the evil killing plan. Even if they don't risk the package this time, there will be problems next time. The best way is to break through the surface and uproot the root of the problem."

"Go on."

"My subordinates think we can kill and set up one group. We will neither let the clan forces obstruct the evil killing plan, nor completely oppose them. After all, the evil killing plan is a slow work according to your idea. In fact, retaining the clan forces is good for the plan itself."

"Kill a batch, set up a batch?" Shen Hao thought deeply when he heard the speech.

Tang Qingyuan continued: "Sir, we can secretly kill those ancestral elders who oppose us in each village, then set up those in vain, let them be the fist or speaker of the clan forces, and then give them more benefits bit by bit to make them close to us.

Anyway, their purpose is nothing more than to strengthen their control over the people and consolidate their status by relying on "Customs". I think they should agree to replace "Customs" with "law", as long as the enforcement power is still in their hands... "
