Working Prophet

Li Yu was preaching at a small farm belonging to Miss Rabbit that day. Among the people who came to listen to the lecture, Li Yu also saw an old acquaintance.

——Anton, a lingua franca teacher.

Anton's height of nearly two meters and the pair of branch-covered antlers on his head make him very conspicuous in the crowd.

The two of them met frequently these days. Li Yu saw him at a glance and nodded to him.

However, the common language teacher ignored Li Yu, and it cannot be said that he ignored him. Although he did not return the salute, he was staring at Li Yu viciously with a pair of big bloodshot eyes, as if It's like rushing up and cutting people.

Li Yu didn't care and began to spread Saturday's beliefs.

"...rest is the most basic right that our Lord bestows on every believer. It should be protected and should not be deprived of it by anyone for any reason. Those who join the Shuangxiu religion need to rest for two days for every five days of work. .

"You should use these two days to fully recover from physical exhaustion, relieve mental fatigue, entertain yourself, cultivate hobbies, or just do nothing..."

After Li Yu finished speaking, he saw someone raising his hand, so he pointed at that person, and the latter asked, "But we can't rest when harvesting wheat, otherwise the wheat grains will fall into the ground, and if it catches up with heavy rain, we can't rest." It will get moldy."

"The problem you mentioned has been mentioned in the precepts. In special circumstances, you can apply for a rest." Li Yudao, "Not only during the busy farming season, but also in the event of disasters, and special circumstances such as war, you can take a rest. The time will be moved back, but in principle, the rest must be completed within one year.”

"Absurd!" A discordant voice suddenly sounded.

The speaker was Anton, a mandarin teacher, and he shouted loudly, "People are born to work, and only hardworking people will own their own residences, pay land rent and taxes, save food, support themselves, marry wives, and make their own living. Their own bloodline can be continued, but lazy people can only use the heaven and the earth as their seats, hungry and full, and finally die miserably and alone!"

His words were also echoed by many farmers, because this is what their lives are like, and what they see around them are also such scenes.

Li Yu said calmly, "I don't deny the meaning of hard work, but I don't think it's lazy to rest two days a week. You still have five days to work, and Saturday also knows how hard it is for you to make a living, so it You have been given new farming tools and farming methods, allowing you to grow much more crops on your land than before.

"I can assure you that even if you take five days off and two days off, you will be richer than you are now."

"Then why don't we use the remaining two days to cultivate?" Another person asked, "Then we can harvest more food, earn more money, marry more beautiful wives, and have children." I am not afraid of tiredness or hardship if I have more children.”

Li Yu has heard similar questions many times when he was preaching. As a modern person, especially a modern person who lives in the city, he may not be able to understand this old scalper spirit who lives to death and works to death.

That's because the environments and needs of both parties are different.

As long as most urbanites have hands and feet, and there are no health risks or family burdens, they basically don't need to worry too much about their own survival, and they don't have a strong desire to reproduce, and the birth rate has been declining year after year.

But for the farmers on this continent, survival is their top priority, and reproduction, as much reproduction as possible is almost the only pursuit in their lives, so they are more inclined to use their leisure time as well. sell.

In fact, there are some similar examples in modern society. For example, in a kidney selling village in Nepal, the men there almost have scars on their bodies. By selling a kidney, they can earn money to buy a house and marry a wife. It's a pretty good deal.

If kidneys can be sold on the Bratis continent, and with this technology and market, Li Yu believes that many people will be interested.

It is not easy to change such a concept. In addition to allowing most people to eat enough, it takes time to make the transition. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult to change.

But for Li Yu, there is an easier solution. He said directly, "This is the blessing that Saturday bestows on you, but you must not be greedy, otherwise what it bestows on you can also be taken away."

Since it is impossible to prevent villagers from selling kidneys (selling their leisure time) economically, then it can be prohibited religiously.

Of course, the premise is that you have a strong enough sect.

Sure enough, all the villagers dared not say anything after hearing the words, only Anton was still shouting, "Don't believe him, we are all bathed in the light of the Silver Moon Goddess, we are her children, and every good harvest is a blessing from the Goddess. Without the blessing of the goddess, no heavy fruits can grow on the earth!"

Before Li Yu said anything, a guard from the Arias family couldn't stand it anymore, and asked Li Yu, "Prophet Merlin, do you want me to arrest that troublemaker?"

"No, there is always a villain in every wonderful story. Let him scream. The more enthusiastic he screams now, the more ugly his face will be when the first batch of crops is harvested."

In fact, many people present were a little tired of this big man who kept yelling and singing opposite Li Yu.

After all, the Common Language teacher's eloquence is just like that. He only has a few sentences that can be turned over and over again.

He almost never gained any advantage in the confrontation with Li Yu, and was always the one who was beaten down. However, he fought against each other repeatedly and had a somewhat indomitable attitude.

He followed Li Yu wherever he preached, like a dog-skin plaster. It seemed that he planned to use this method to hinder the expansion of Shuangxiujiao.

Although the effect was minimal, Anton himself was quite immersed in it. His whole body remained in a state of excitement, his throat was almost hoarse, and his lips were peeling, but he still had no intention of resting.

"Those who betray Pisiya will not have a good end. Turn back quickly, lost lambs! Otherwise your curse will come!"

Just as the Common Language teacher was talking, he saw a Black Dog Guard running towards this side.

The guard ran up to Li Yu in one breath before stopping. Then he leaned into Li Yu's ear and said something.

Anton also wanted to hear it, but unfortunately he couldn't get through.

Then he saw Li Yu raised his head and said, "Okay, that's the end of today's lecture. If you have anything else you want to know, you can ask the Hughes of our sect."

Anton's sixth sense told him that something had happened. The common language teacher didn't know if Li Yu had done something bad against the Silver Moon Church again. Looking at Li Yu's leaving back, he gritted his teeth and chased after him. Go up.
