I

The living room of Huang Jiazu's house was transformed into a meeting room of Wuxing Town Hall.

Today is the founding meeting of the Datong Association.

There were twelve participants: Zhao Han, Pang Chunlai, Zhang Tieniu, Chen Maosheng, Fei Ruhe, Fei Chun, Huang Fei, Huang Fei, Jiang Dashan, Huang Yao, Huang Shun, and Huang Shunfu.

Huang Shunfu was the head of the school boy section. Although he was born as a self-cultivating farmer, he was relatively distant from Mr. Huang's blood.

Moreover, although his family has a lot of land, they also have a lot of Dingkou, which has been forcibly separated by Zhao Han.

In Huang Shunfu's view, it doesn't matter if the family is separated or not. The key is to pay less taxes. His family can finally have enough food this year.

As the first scholar in this town to take the initiative to contribute, and he is very active and conscientious in his work, Zhao Han is of course to be reused, and he is also allowed to participate in the founding meeting of the Datong Association.

Zhao Han asked with a smile: "Have you all watched "The White-haired Girl"?"

"Look." Everyone nodded.

"How would you rate this play?" Zhao Han asked again.

"It's not as good as the Yiyang play," Fei Ruhe spoke first, and then added, "I saw that the villagers were filled with righteous indignation. This play was performed for them, and it must have reached their hearts."

Huang Yao said with emotion: "The acting is so real, I can't bear to watch it every time."

Xiao Cui said: "When I was rehearsing, I cried during the performance."

Fei Chun lamented: "Can someone else play Huang Shiren? In the next few scenes, if there is no Tuan Yongying standing guard, I am afraid that I will be beaten every time I play it."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Everyone laughed loudly, even Pang Chunlai couldn't stop laughing.

Fortunately, during the performance, he wore a fake beard and a hat, otherwise Fei Chun would be beaten when he went out!

Although Pang Chunlai always wanted to rebel, his rebellious thinking was very traditional. It's nothing more than making friends with the rich gentry, making friends with all kinds of religions and nine streams, waiting for the changes in the world, and taking the opportunity to rise up.

Until now, Pang Chunlai was gradually influenced by Zhao Han and began to accept the bottom-level change route.

Pang Chunlai said: "The drama is very good, and ordinary people can understand it at a glance. First perform "The White-haired Girl", and then hold a complaint meeting, and the people's emotions will be mobilized. If the government dares to send troops, the people will not agree. They don't want to live the hard life of the past. The old man thinks that from now on, whenever he goes to a place, he will first divide the land for the farmers, then perform "The White-haired Girl", and then hold a complaint meeting. After the complaint meeting, immediately recruit soldiers and horses, and the people will definitely join the army enthusiastically. !"

"Mr. Pang is well said!" Zhao Han took the lead in applauding.

"Crack clap clap!"

The others also applauded. They already knew that Pang Chunlai was Zhao Han's teacher.

Zhao Han suddenly said: "Yanchu (Huang Shunfu), come and read the general chapter of the Datong Association."

Being called by Zhao Han alone, Huang Shunfu was very excited, and quickly stood up and recited: "On the journey of the great road, the world is for the public... Therefore, the outdoors are not closed, which is called Great Harmony."

Zhao Han asked everyone: "Can you all understand?"

Those who have read the book nod, those who have not read the book nod and shake their heads, probably understand a small part.

Zhao Han ordered: "Yanchu, please tell everyone in common Chinese."

There is a translation in the general chapter, and it is the translation of Zhao Han's private goods. Huang Shunfu read it accordingly:

"The greatest truth in the world is to have a public heart. The world belongs to the people of the world. The court is the court of the emperor, the court of officials, the court of landlords, the court of craftsmen, the court of peasants, and the court of thousands of people. The imperial court of thousands of hardworking people..."

"Since it is our court, when selecting officials to do things, you should choose good people as officials, and you should choose capable officials."

"The imperial court and the government should be trustworthy and be kind to the common people. They should not only know how to exploit the common people all day long."

"The government and the common people, the common people and the common people, should be like a family. Love your own parents, your own children, and love other people's parents and children."

"Old people should enjoy their old age in peace. When people are old and can't work, they should have food and clothing, and have children to die with filial piety. Young people should have land farming, work, work, and books. Those who are more capable should have Let them become officials and govern the world better. Children need someone to raise them, and let them grow up in the right way."

"Old people without children, widows without husbands, orphans without parents, the government should help them, and neighbors should also help them."

"When a man grows up, he can marry a wife and find a job. When a woman grows up, he can marry a good family."

"Wealth, money and food, earned by yourself, don't be jealous of others, don't waste extravagance, don't want it if it's not your own. Don't be jealous of others who have talent, learning and strength. People with talent, learning and strength should do things well. Don’t bully others just because of your talent and strength.”

"In this way, ordinary people will not think of rebellion, nor will they abandon their homes to become thieves. No one will steal if the door is not locked. This is Datong!"

Some translations were intentionally misinterpreted by Zhao Han, which made Fei Ruhe and other scholars frown.

Jiang Dashan, Huang Yao and others who don't study, but listen to it with great yearning.

Huang Yao exclaimed: "Is this the book of Confucius? It's really well written!"

Zhao Han asked with a smile: "Do you want the world to become like this?"

Fei Ruhe complained: "Who wouldn't want to? No sage in ancient or modern times can do it."

"Whether you can do it or not is one thing; whether you want to do it or not is another matter," Zhao Han sighed. One point is one point!"

Jiang Dashan suddenly said: "The imperial court can't let good people become officials. The county is full of corrupt officials. I'm afraid it won't be easy for the world to be unified."

"The big landlord is also very bad. With the big landlord, there must be no great harmony in the world." Huang Shun also said.

"Hey!"

Zhao Han suddenly slapped the table and stood up: "If the imperial court can't do it, then let's do it. If the world can't be done, then first let Wuxing Town Datong, then let Xuanhua Township Datong, then let Luling County Datong, and then make Datong Datong in Ji'an Prefecture!"

Everyone saw the changes in Wuxing Town and knew it was a rebellion.

But Zhao Han himself admitted that he wanted to rebel, and added a set of Datong rhetoric, which still shocked everyone present.

Zhao Han looked at everyone and said forcefully: "Let everyone in the world have a public heart, not just let others do it, I will start with myself first. I donated all the 10,000 mu of land under my name and only 100 mu of land is left. "

"These lands will be the public property of Wuxing Town in the future, and they will be used to do good deeds for the common people. From now on, whoever makes meritorious service will be rewarded with 10,000 mu of land. Any farmer who saves money can also sell the land to farmers, but only to Farmers with little land, sell to farmers who have worked so hard to grow the land and don’t have enough to eat!”

When the others heard this, they were just shocked and admired.

Fei Ruhe looked at Zhao Han quietly, he knew that most of what he said was for himself.

It worked very well, Fei Ruhe listened to it.

Although the 10,000 mu of land was snatched, as long as Zhao Han didn't continue to rebel, the government would probably acquiesce. Zhao Han really donated 10,000 mu of land!

Zhao Han can donate 10,000 mu, so why not his own land?

In order to do great things, it is worth it!

The more Zhao Han talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more his fighting spirit became high: "I set up this Datong Association to bring about great harmony in the world. Make foolish kings abdicate, let corrupt officials go, and let men, women, and children have enough to eat. Who would like to work with me? Who would like to do things with me? Join the Datong Association?"

"I!"

Chen Maosheng and Huang Yao shouted at the same time.

The third person who responded was actually Huang Shunfu, the head of the school children's section. He said with great ambition: "The book of Rites is the book of Rites for me. Today I will understand its true meaning. This is the way of the sages!"

The others also responded, only Fei Ruhe, Fei Chun, Xiaohong, and Xiaocui remained.

"Women...women can also join?" Xiaohong was a little unsure.

Zhao Han smiled and said, "You've become a section chief, so you're afraid you won't be able to join the club?"

Xiao Hong shyly said: "My official can only manage women and children. This Datong Association, I'm afraid it will be different, and I will have to manage many people in the future."

Zhao Han shook his head and said, "The Datong Association is just a club, not a government office, so you can't be an official. You can't get a salary, but you have to pay the membership fee every year. You have to think about it! Of course, the membership fee is not much, and ordinary people can afford it. "

"Then I'll join." Xiaohong smiled.

Xiao Cui hesitated: "I also want to join the club."

Fei Chun looked at Fei Ruhe, waiting for the young master to express his opinion, he dared not join without authorization.

Fei Ruhe stood up and said, "I want to do something big. You, Datonghui, are not ordinary big things, but big things that break the sky. I will go all out and play with you to see if I can break the sky!"

"Very good, since everyone is willing to join, then we are comrades." Zhao Han laughed.

Fei Ruhe muttered, "That's not a good word."

Comrade, it has existed since ancient times, and it is originally a commendation, referring to like-minded people.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, specifically referring to accomplices in party struggles, it has vaguely become a derogatory term.

Zhao Han explained: "Partisan struggle for self-interest is not a good word. Let's fight for justice is a good word!"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Han began to announce again: "Now we have three sets of teams, Datong Association, Wuxing Town, and Tuanyongying. The main officials of Wuxing Town Hall must be members of Datonghui. Tuanyongying was renamed Zidibing. They are the children of the common people, and the captain and above must be members of the Datong Association!"

Pang Chunlai frowned and said, "If the territory grows bigger in the future, Datong will also be in charge of the government and the army? I'm afraid there will be chaos!"

Zhao Han explained: "Although the Datong Association has internal positions, all members, including me, have no distinction between high and low, and there is no salary to receive. The internal duties of the Datong Association have no right to interfere with official and military positions. Officials follow the duties of the government, and the army follows the duties of the army."

"Impossible," Pang Chunlai shook his head and said, "You will know when the time comes."

Zhao Han sighed and said, "If it develops to that point, I will definitely disband the Datong Association."

No more entanglement with this, Zhao Han said directly: "Let's swear to join the club!"

The swearing-in ceremony has also been changed, and it has to be done in a way that the ancients were willing to accept.

Put a tablet on the table, without an owner, representing heaven and earth, sages, and all peoples.

Zhao Han led the crowd, kowtowed to the unowned tablet, bowed nine times, and finally read the oath to the tablet.

To do great things, you must have a sense of ritual.

After nine knocks and one prostration, and Datong's oath shouted, Fei Ruhe, who didn't take it seriously at first, felt his blood boil for no reason.

It seems that the gods of heaven and earth are watching, and the gods and Buddhas in the world are blessing them, and the rise and fall of the world depends on them.

In the sixth year of Chongzhen, on July 9, the Datong Association was formally established.
