Chapter 221 Church

After dealing with Liu Mengzi, Xia Zhizhi went to the blind-elimination team’s base in Harbin to find them.

The ten Arhats from Mudanjiang are imparting their experience to them.

Everyone was very happy to see Xia Zhizhi.

One by one, they shook her hands enthusiastically.

Xia Zhizhi was also very amiable. She took care of everyone, connected with them, brainwashed them, and strengthened their confidence in doing business.

In fact, most of the students nowadays are easy to fool. Given her social status and her status as the soul of the group, it can be said that she has the support of hundreds of people.

In order to fool the members, she had a secret chat with the leader of Harbin's blind elimination team for a long time, and then assigned them tasks.

"You all should know that Liu Mengzi was arrested for hiding English letters. I am worried that he has corrupted his comrades. We cannot let those good comrades be corrupted by him. This matter depends on our blind spot team. Everyone should bring them back and give them a good lecture to correct their ideas so that they will not make mistakes again!"

The members of the Blindness Abolition Team were particularly excited. Liu Mengzi was a ruthless man, one of the core figures of the vandalism faction. Now that he has fallen, isn't it a good time for the Blindness Abolition Team to rise?

Their Harbin team has fallen behind Mudanjiang, but they must be better than other cities. After all, they are the provincial capital. If they fall behind again, how will others look at them!

Those who know the way will immediately lead the team to catch the man.

After catching them, the ten lecturers from Mudanjiang pressed them down on benches and began a vivid teaching demonstration.

Seeing that the members were all seriously learning from the experience, Xia Zhizhi did not bother them too much.

In terms of numbers, the Blindness-Away Team cannot defeat the Militant Faction.

But they will brainwash people one by one. Most people just follow the trend blindly, and they will definitely be shaken after being told the same thing a few times.

Of course there are some who are stubborn and recalcitrant. After all, their group is purely a hobby and there is really nothing good to gain from it. Some people are practical and don't want to take a big bite.

If it is extremely unique, just let it be.

If they keep their numbers under control, they won't be able to cause any big trouble.

Xia Zhizhi decided to collect some successful small cases from various places in the future, and then compile some simple brainwashing techniques in the form of dialogues, print them into a booklet, and send a copy to the blind elimination teams in various places so that they can study them well.

Firstly, it can provide everyone with some reference experience. After all, those great lecturers who can make a big fuss and seduce people are all talented players. There are not many of them. The vast majority are ordinary people. In order to take care of them, we can provide them with systematic training.

Secondly, when people are in a team, they must have a sense of honor. If they have done a good job, putting them in the book and praising them can greatly motivate the enthusiasm of the members.

The work of eliminating blindness is a long and arduous journey and cannot be accomplished overnight. In addition to endurance, it also requires a lot of money to support it.

So Xia Zhizhi went to the black market again!

In fact, conditions in Northeast China are better than many cities in the South right now, because it is mainly developing heavy industry, and the Northeast's reputation as an old industrial base is not an exaggeration.

The more factories there are, the more workers there will be. With stable jobs, everyone's living conditions will definitely be better.

Harbin's GDP is currently among the highest in the country.

Therefore, the sales ability is also strong.

I cleared out my inventory, sold some, and exchanged them for a lot of old jewelry. I couldn't even afford them all, so I reluctantly asked for money.

After all, the money in her hands doesn't circulate much and won't appreciate in value. It's not easy to deposit such a large amount into a bank, and it's not a good idea to have too much.

Xia Zhizhi acted ruthlessly. She really didn't want to do it bit by bit, nor did she have the time to do it. If they sold all the goods at once, they would be able to sell them for two to three months. The three black market bosses would just have to take out their underwear to exchange for money.

The people of Harbin did not disappoint.

She had just delivered the goods the day before, which included a batch of finished clothes. Although the clothes from later generations were imitations of ancient times, there was actually some difference between them and this style of clothes. Within a few days, many people were seen wearing them on the streets.

After finishing their work, Xia Zhizhi and Aju began to have fun without any worries as they estimated that no one would disturb her interest in playing.

The two of them went to check in at St. Sophia Cathedral. At that time, there were too many Russians here, more than the local residents. The old church could not accommodate them all, so they had to build this one. After it was completed, it became the largest Orthodox church in the Far East.

This is the old church before it was demolished. The big mushroom-shaped building next to it is the new church.

The church's exterior is made of red bricks, with a huge blue onion-shaped dome on top. The red and blue combination is particularly eye-catching.

The tent roofs of different sizes scattered around form a master-slave layout, which is the symbol of Russian Byzantine architecture.

There are many churches in Harbin. This church is just closed now, and the damage to it was not serious.

The church was locked, and no one knew where the clergy had been taken. There was no one there, so Xia Zhizhi's plan to use her press pass to sneak in and play was naturally not feasible.

But solutions are invented by humans.

Since they were already here, they couldn't make a wasted trip, so Xia Zhizhi planned to climb in through the window of the side hall to take a look.

She chose a window at the back, used an iron sheet to unlock the latch inside, and opened the window. She was about to climb over the wall to get in.

Two comrades, a man and a woman, came running over.

Xia Zhizhi stopped and looked at them.

The female comrade had two long braids and looked pretty and lively. She smiled and said to them in a soft Mandarin: "Hello, comrade. My name is Jiang Sihua, and this is my brother Jiang Siping."

Xia Zhizhi nodded: "Hello comrade, I am Xia Zhizhi."

Then he pointed at Ah Ju next to him and said, "My brother is Xia Zhi."

Jiang Sihua looked at the window they had pushed open and asked, "Can we go in with you?"

As long as the other party had no ill intentions, Xia Zhizhi was always nice to female comrades. She nodded, and went in with Ah Ju first.

The church had not been destroyed at this time. After entering, walking to the main hall, you can see the huge chandelier hanging from the sky.

The interior of Byzantine architecture is very spacious, with a large vault and many small vaults around it, like a group of stars surrounding the moon, with a clear distinction between the primary and secondary, and a well-arranged layout.

There are forty small windows around the bottom of the large dome, providing excellent lighting. Natural light enters the church in an interlaced manner, making the entire space feel light and magical.

The piers and inner walls are inlaid with brightly colored marble in black, white, green, red and other bright colors. The columns are green and the capitals are white.

The top and interior of the dome are covered with blue and gold glass mosaics.

The inner arched walls are decorated with elaborate murals, which complement each other beautifully.

This colorful and flashy color, when matched properly, looks noble, rich and mysterious.

It was the first time for Jiang Sihua and his sister to see this kind of Byzantine architecture, and they exclaimed in amazement from time to time.

Opposite the main gate is the spacious and imposing main sanctuary where the archbishop preaches. There is a small door on each side of the main sanctuary, leading to the back corridor. Inside the back corridor is a reliquary, the main body of which is embedded in the wall.

Xia Zhizhi opened the door and saw that it was empty inside. She guessed that the clergy had evacuated it for protection.
