Win the hearts of the people?
I have absolutely no experience in this area! I still have to follow your instructions, right?
Suddenly feeling that he was still nothing, Alibai felt powerless.
"How to gather them together?"
Fang Zhengyi paced with his hands behind his back, looking at the corpses around him and sighed: "There are two things in this world that are the hardest to touch."
"What?"
Fang Zhengyi said calmly, "The interests of the upper class and the ideas of the lower class. But if you touch them at the same time, this seemingly indestructible thing will become easy to break." Fang Zhengyi said slowly, "The interests of the upper class cannot be touched, otherwise it will cost them their lives. The ideas of the lower class cannot be changed, so use the interests of the upper class to buy them off."
"You are already halfway to success. You can search the homes of all the dead ministers. You can also bribe those petty officials who are ready to make a move. If you cannot bribe them or the price they ask is too high, you can threaten them with force."
"As for how to bribe the people, that is a technical job, but this is exactly what I am good at!"
What is Fang Zhengyi's area of expertise? This is the first time I've heard him talk about his area of expertise.
Alibai exclaimed, “Please teach me, teacher!”
"If it were you, what would you do?" Fang Zheng asked without saying anything.
"Give money to the people."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong. Zhang Biao understands this point better than you. Zhang Biao, tell him what to do?" Fang Zheng turned his head and looked at Zhang Biao.
Zhang Biao tilted his head, thought for a moment and said, "Repair the toilet?"
"Okay, stop talking."
This idiot! He has been with me for so many years, but he hasn't made any progress in other areas except fighting!
My light of wisdom didn't stick to it at all! Damn!
Fang Zheng took a few breaths in a row, trying to calm himself down before saying, "If you want to please someone, the most important thing is to create a contrast, to give people a huge surprise, to perform beyond their expectations, so that you can win more people's hearts."
"You started by distributing money to the people. Anyone can come up with such an uncreative idea."
"So if you want to stand out, you have to do the opposite. Not only can you not give them money, but you have to suppress them! Suppress them so hard that they can't breathe and suffer. First, you have to use the money in your hands to buy a large amount of food in the market, control the market in the city and raise prices."
"Of course you can't use your own name. Just pick someone who's suitable among those lying in this room. Do it outside in his name. When a piece of bread can be sold for five taels of silver and the people can't stand it anymore, you can jump out and give the money and food in your hands to the people at a very low price or even for free."
"It won't be long before the whole city will remember your good name, Alibai."
"If we do this, won't they rebel?" Alibai asked worriedly.
Fang Zheng shook his head
The people in ancient times were no different from modern people. In the eyes of modern people, they were no different from slaves. If shit was nutritious, they would eat shit to survive and would not think about pursuing their rights as human beings.
If someone gives them food and money, the people will praise you highly and be grateful to you in various ways.
He had already experienced this.
"Master will not let the situation develop to that point. The only thing you need to pay attention to is that people in the court will take advantage of the public resentment to stir up trouble, so the scale of this needs to be precisely controlled. Master will help you pay attention to this, you don't have to worry about it."
"It's not over yet. The people will trust you and love you, but this is far from enough! What I want is to make you a god, the only god in the hearts of the people. Your position in Pantai City is unbreakable, and no one dares to touch it."
"Before distributing the money and food, you must first bribe all the painters, printing houses, and theaters in the city to print promotional materials and rehearse the new play in advance. The painters will paint your face into propaganda posters and distribute them throughout the city for free, and post them on all the walls in the city."
"You only need to write a few words on the poster. The people will recognize them in two days. The words must reflect your love for the people, diligence, and other virtues. Combined with the fact that you are the protagonist in various new plays about heroic deeds that are performed free of charge throughout the city, I dare say that within a month, you will become the people's faith, and your position will be unshakable."
Belief!
Alibai was deeply shocked.
A big deal! He had never heard of such a big deal before. Could the Painter's Theater be played like this?
If this goes smoothly...I'm afraid even my father Khan's authority will be lower than mine!!!
As he thought about it, Ali Bai smiled foolishly: "But I don't have any heroic deeds... How can I promote this?"
Fang Zheng said solemnly, "It doesn't matter whether there is one or not. Our propaganda targets the lower-class people in the city, so the arguments must be bold, clear and powerful. The only purpose of propaganda is to conquer the people. The basic principle of propaganda is to keep repeating effective arguments. Lies can be disguised and spread over and over again, and people will believe them."
"This is not all. The most important step is that you have to personally give a speech in public, so that thousands of people can see you and hear with their own ears that you can lead them into that ideal world. After the plan is implemented, I would like to arrange two to three speeches for you every day, and you will travel around the city."
"Ah...speech...I don't know how to give a speech?" Ali Bai stuttered.
Thinking about facing thousands of people, he suddenly felt a little scared.
Fang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth and smiled evilly. "No? There are also some tricks on public speaking in the internal materials of the master."
"From Being Shy to Being a Good Speaker," "Seven Days to Learn Public Speaking," and "Fang's Magical Public Speaking." These secrets will be taught to you one by one after I become your teacher. Even if you don't learn them, you can still give a speech by reading a script. Don't be afraid."
Fang Zhengyi's mouth was dry as he spoke, so he paused for a while to let Ali Bai continue to absorb.
Seeing that he had thought it through, he continued, "You have the army in your hands and the people are loyal to you. Your position is already secure. If there is any group of people who dare to oppose you, it will be very simple. You can just fabricate charges and say that these people robbed the people and that the previous high prices were caused by them... Then continue to confiscate their property and use the money to subsidize the people to maintain your position."
"From then on, Pantai City had only one voice, one thought, and one new emperor!" Fang Zheng looked at Alibai with a half-smile and asked, "Tell me who he is."
!!!
Ali's white pupils trembled violently and asked, "He...he is me?"
"Who am I, and who is the emperor?!" Fang Zhengyi stood in front of him, staring at him intently.
"Huh...huh..." Alibai breathed rapidly, swallowed hard, and stared at Fang Zhengyi with unprecedented excitement in his eyes.
"It's Alibai...I...I'm the Emperor!!"
Fang Zhengyi smiled with satisfaction, and the devil's whispers sounded again.
"Your Majesty, please start the action!"
.....
Zhou Tie was stunned by what he heard. He felt a chill all over his body. He rubbed his arms and turned to look at Zhang Biao and whispered, "Fuck, so evil. The master is so fucking annoying today! What are you looking at?"
"Ah? I'm hungry too. Can I still eat the bread on the ground?"
“….”
