Go back to the Ming Dynasty to be a thousand households

Chapter 74 The Joy of Harvest ([-])
"The flowers in the flower basket are fragrant, listen to me sing, sing and sing. I came to Wuzhai Fort, Wuzhai Fort is a good place, a good place. A good place comes with a good view, a good place comes with a good view..."

At noon on the 26th, the weather was bright and sunny.

In the arena outside Wuzhai Fort, the arena can usually accommodate thousands of people. At this time, the entire arena is full of seats. Around the middle of the arena, there are tables and chairs, and there is laughter and laughter everywhere. It was very lively, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces.

Today, the entire Wuzhai Fort has been mobilized. Except for the necessary banner guards inside the fort and the banner guards outside the field, all the military households of Wuzhai Fort and most of the garrison are also The merchants from all the shops in the castle are basically here.

The table was full of people, and the table was full of steaming wine and dishes, big fish and meat, very rich.In addition, outside the arena, there are many private households from all over the country who came to watch the excitement. Although many of them could not squeeze into the arena, they all gathered around the arena to watch, and Mr. Huang Laifu, a thousand families, He also mercifully distributed wine and meat to them, making them all elated, squeezed outside to look inside with relish.

Today, a celebration banquet is being held here.From the 16th to the 25th yesterday, after tens of thousands of people in Wuzhaibao rushed to harvest day and night, the autumn grains in the various farms in Wuzhaibao have basically been harvested, and the rest is just some finishing work.The bountiful harvest of hundreds of thousands of stone grains was really gratifying, so Huang Laifu and everyone agreed to hold a celebration banquet in today's competition field, and to commend some people here today.

The people in the arena, headed by Huang Laifu, are naturally sitting next to the martial arts hall, on the right hand side of the arena.At the table with him were his father Huang Sihao, his mother Yang Shi, and Steward Yang, who were close to Qianhu Household.He Fuqianhu, Jiang Baihu, Yang Baihu, Liu Zongqi, Qian Shi, Wang Qinian, Zhou Wendong, Qu Yuanrui and other important people in Wuzhai Fort also sat at the table next to him.

There was laughter and laughter at each table, and everyone was drinking and talking loudly.Accompanied by the sound of drinking and talking, there were also wonderful performances one after another in the venue, most of which were some local songs and dances, which aroused bursts of applause from the crowd.

At this time, everyone was looking at the Martial Arts Hall above, even Huang Laifu was paying attention, because there was going to be an important program above, and Huang Laifu spent a lot of energy on this program.At this time, the Martial Arts Hall had already been converted into a program rehearsal venue and a backstage hall.

Soon, amidst cheers.From the Martial Arts Hall, some military girls from Wuzhai Fort filed down, and the one who walked in the front was Liu Yumei, a military craftsman girl.She looked even more graceful in her new, well-fitting clothes.Seeing so many people looking at her, she couldn't help but blushed.

However, she still came to the venue gracefully, and with the accompaniment of dances and various musical instruments, she opened her cherry lips and sang a beautiful and moving song: "The fragrance of flowers in the flower basket, listen to me sing, sing a song Ya sing. I came to Wuzhai Fort, a good place in Wuzhai Fort..."

……

When Liu Yumei sang "everywhere are crops, everywhere are pigs and sheep...", in the accompaniment of gongs and drums, the girls behind her sang together: "everywhere are crops, everywhere are pigs and sheep..."

Everyone below has been waiting for this song for a long time. Although everyone has listened to this song many times these days, when they hear this song again at this time, everyone is still intoxicated by the proud and beautiful scenery in the song , everyone was excited and cheered together, and many of them hummed along with the song. Even mother Yang kept nodding to the beat with a smile.

The melody of this song sounds so familiar. That's right, this is the main theme song "Wuzhai Fort" adapted by Huang Laifu to celebrate the great harvest of Wuzhai Fort. Only the lyrics of later generations have been slightly changed, and the tune is still the same.

As early as when he was recruiting sergeants, Huang Laifu was thinking about the propaganda issue of Wuzhai Fort. He planned to organize a propaganda team, which would be used by both the military and the civilians first, and then consider separating them when they became more popular.He in later generations naturally understands the important role of this form of propaganda in the hearts of the army and the people.Therefore, on the 18th, Huang Laifu began to organize this kind of propaganda team.

This is a new thing, so everyone in Wuzhai Fort was very surprised when they heard about Master Qian Hu's thoughts.

Everyone would definitely not say anything about Master Qianhu's actions, but Huang Laifu found some difficulties when it came to some specific matters.In addition to the migrants, Wuzhaibao originally had a population of more than 6000, including more than 1000 women, and several hundred young and strong women. Most of them worked in various places in Wuzhaibao's large livestock farm, and some were idle.

Huang Laifu's propaganda team planned to organize 40 people, including 20 girls and 20 male musicians and handymen.Musicians and handymen are easy to say, just hire a troupe for a long time or recruit some military households. After hearing the treatment promised by the adults, many theatrical troupes in Minbao are very willing to come, and there are a lot of people who respond.

It's hard to say about this girl. It's no problem for women to go to work in various livestock farms, but many women feel ashamed to show their faces and sing in front of everyone.Although the salary is very good, each person has a monthly ration of one stone, which is much higher than working in major livestock farms, but when Huang Laifu's notice was posted on the 18th, in the evening, no woman came to apply for the job.

This made Huang Laifu a little annoyed, when he was about to assign some women from military households by name.At this time, Liu Yumei came down accompanied by Mrs. Qian, lowered her eyebrows, blushed, and whispered that she was willing to work for the adults.

This made Huang Laifu very happy. He had seen this Liu Yumei a few times before. He was usually as shy as a little rabbit, but today he was so bold. He was the first to apply for the job. Now Liu Yumei sang a few ditties for the test. try.

Liu Yumei sang, and Huang Laifu found that her voice was very good, and the songs she sang had a wide range, so she was a good seed.And although she is a bit shy in front of people, after entering the world of music, she will plunge into it and completely forget everything.Huang Laifu immediately decided to support Liu Yumei in the future, and let her become the voice of Wuzhaibao's publicity.

After the first girl came in, things would be easy in the future. Soon after the 19th, the girls in the propaganda team were fully recruited, and they were all girls who were good at singing and dancing.During those days, Huang Laifu devoted himself even more, training them according to what the later generations saw and heard.At the beginning, people were skeptical about this kind of girls' propaganda team. They said in private, would this have any bad effects, would someone gossip?

After hearing this, Huang Laifu just said indifferently: "Anyone who talks gossip, please stand in front of this official." Immediately, there was no objection from all over Wuzhaibao, and everyone supported what Lord Qianhu did.

From the 20th to the 22nd, in his free time, Huang Laifu went to the publicity team to guide the girls to rehearse meticulously and repeatedly. There was no problem with the funds and the rehearsal venue.

The propaganda team mainly sings and dances some familiar ditties in northern Shanxi.Of course, the main one is Huang Laifu's song "Wuzhaibao".Huang Laifu also planned to spread this song far and wide as the song of Wuzhaibao in the future.When people think of Wuzhai Fort, they think of a bumper harvest, full of wheat and rice, and pigs and sheep everywhere.

As a latecomer, Huang Laifu certainly knows the importance of the media. Often just a song can invigorate the economy of a place, and let the world remember it. It is really powerful.

Sure enough, starting from the 23rd, when the propaganda team began to operate in the banner army and in the fields of various farms in Wuzhaibao, it achieved great success in just a few days.The beautiful singing voices of the girls, the strong local flavor, and the strong sense of pride in the songs have attracted countless people.It also makes people work more powerfully.

At this time, unlike later generations, the entertainment life of ordinary people is very lacking. Usually, wherever there is a big drama, people from all over the world will come out together.Wherever this propaganda team goes now, of course it is very popular. Everywhere, everyone flocks to watch and bring laughter everywhere.

And as the lead singer, Liu Yumei became popular as later generations said.Usually everyone hangs around her, and they all like the country songs she sings, especially the "Wuzhaibao", which is said to be written and arranged by Master Qianhu. The tune is a bit strange, but the melody is quite beautiful.Whenever they hear this song, everyone in Wuzhaibao can't hide their excitement and pride.

But in just a few days, the song "Wuzhai Fort", which sang the hearts of all the military households, quickly spread throughout the entire fort, and every military household would hum a few words, especially the song was so fast. Spread it all over the fort.

At this moment in the competition field, when everyone heard this beautiful song again, everyone was excited, many of them kept pace, and sang together with the girls behind Liu Yumei in the field: "There are crops everywhere, everywhere! It's pig and sheep...

After these few days, Liu Yumei has already understood the emotional rhythm of the people in the venue. After everyone sang together and the music accompaniment sounded, Liu Yumei continued to sing: "In the past, Wuzhai Fort was full of barren hills and there was no human habitation. Today's Wuzhai The fort is different from previous years. It is not ordinary. Today's Wuzhai Fort is different from previous years. It is no longer the old look, it is a good Jiangnan in northern Shanxi..."

Everyone cheered.Mrs. Yang also nodded again and again, and said to Huang Laifu with a smile on her face: "This girl is really nice, she sings really well..."

Huang Laifu also smiled and said: "Yes, mother, this girl from the Liu family can sing well."
