Three hundred and forty-one under the banyan tree

It is impossible to rely on the East to do this kind of thing. Okamoto can only take action personally. He first went to the Political Office of the General Staff to find this soldier who played the erhu.

Because of military songs, military music and cantata, the Political Office of the General Staff had a lot of exchanges with Dongfang Ke and Nobu Okamoto on weekdays, and they were old acquaintances. When they heard that a professional literary and art group was to be established, Zhang Bolin personally inquired about it and asked someone to look it up.

file.

Although Dongfang Ke didn't ask the soldier's name, he still remembered the location of his sentry post and the approximate date and time. So Okamoto soon got the exact result.

The soldier playing the erhu was named Wang Qisuo, a corporal in the security battalion. He was an immigrant from Shandong who came to Lingao during Operation Engine. He was from a military household in Dengzhou and had sold illicit salt.

Although the garrison camp generally only recruits "tested" naturalized citizens into the army, the new immigrants from Lingao who came during Operation Engine obviously do not conform to this practice. However, Wang Qisuo's resume is very beautiful: he was injured and was on the verge of death.

Rescued by Lu Wenyuan, he joined the Xiangyong Team after recovering from his injuries. He cooperated with the Shandong Detachment on many combat missions during the entire Engine Operation. His performance was very outstanding and he made many meritorious deeds. He was the backbone of the Daoxiangyong Team. After the Engine Operation ended

, the personnel of the Daoxiang Brave Team underwent major adjustments. Except for a few people who continued to stay in the team, most of the personnel were gradually transferred to Lingao, Taiwan and Jeju Island for training. After he came to Gao, he joined the garrison battalion that was expanding its team.

After Wang Qisuo arrived at the garrison camp, he performed well in all aspects and soon became a corporal. But he couldn't say how outstanding he was. Battalion Commander Li Yayang was a little impressed - Wang Qisuo played the huqin very well. He was fine at ordinary times.

When I was in school, I often took him to relieve my boredom, and I was regarded as the "artistic backbone" of the camp.

Now Okamoto said that he would be transferred to the art troupe. Li Yayang didn't have any objections. Wang Qisuo was not a very important pacesetter or top performer. If he was more in the garrison camp, it would not be more. If he was less, it would be a lot.

At that moment, I came to talk to Wang Qisuo. Wang Qisuo was a young man with a good appearance and spoke Mandarin only so-so. He asked him to speak a few paragraphs at random. His level was indeed unspecified - in future generations, it would not be a problem to join a municipal-level literary and art group.

I heard that I was going to a cultural troupe. Wang Qisuo blinked, as if he didn't quite understand.

"You want me to play the piano for the troupe?"

"It's not a theater troupe, it's a cultural troupe..." Okamoto Shin couldn't explain it for a while. In fact, considering the content of their planning, the theater troupe wasn't wrong. He thought for a while, "band, musicians. Do you understand?

?”

Wang Qisuo was reluctant. After all, being a musician in this time and space is not a glorious job: professional musicians are either members of the theater troupe or subordinates of the official "teaching workshop". They are basically untouchables in society.

The one above is an actor, a bastard, and a drummer. He hesitated and said that he didn't want to be a musician and that he was "pretty good" in the security camp.

Seeing that he could not be persuaded for a while, Okamoto Nobu proposed to register as an "amateur personnel" and be temporarily seconded when there were performances. He would still be in the army during normal times and his military status would not change. Wang Qisuo finally agreed.

It is not impossible to forcibly transfer to the art troupe, but it is not sweet. Moreover, the old ideas accumulated over the years are not so easy to get rid of. This is an important reason why I am eager to set up a professional art troupe: no

Nothing has a stronger communication ability than literature and art, and nothing can have as huge an influence on social opinions and concepts as literature and art.

Lin Ming has not sent out any more secret messages since he knew that there were colleagues lurking in the local area. He never wanted his journey to find his sister-in-law to turn into "loyalty to serve the country" - in his opinion, this was seeking death.

But he could no longer figure out what to do next, so he had to take one step at a time and wait for his sister-in-law to contact him. With her ability, it shouldn't be a problem to know where he was.

He continued to hang around in Haixinghao, living on and off work. Every few days, he and Wang Xinglong went out to have a drink and have a drink. Occasionally, Wang Jinchun also went together - even though she was a woman, she also drank a lot.

I could drink. The days passed by like this. More than a month passed in the blink of an eye. There was still no movement from my sister-in-law. Lin Ming saw that he had been in Lingao for many days, knowing that she was here but unable to contact her.

, feeling anxious in my heart.

After he got off work that day, he took a shower, put on his wooden-soled slippers, and walked slowly towards the alley. At the intersection of several streets, there was a big banyan tree. There were stone slabs under the tree, and there were some stone tables and chairs for people to use.

Take a rest. In the evening, some workers from nearby shops often gather here to drink tea, chat and play chess. It is like a casual gathering place. In order to relax and inquire about information, Lin Ming often comes here to sit and chat with others.

Before anyone arrived, I heard the melodious sound of the huqin coming to my ears. In the past few days, every night, a young man playing the huqin came to play under the tree. He didn't talk much, and he played here for half an hour.

He left. Hearing that he was a new guy from a nearby shop, Lin Ming didn't pay much attention.

He walked around under the banyan tree. He came here often. Although the people gathering under the tree could not be named, they all had familiar faces. Several old gentlemen were playing chess and some were playing cards. It was so quiet that he could watch by himself.

Newspapers and magazines. Some people drank tea and others smoked. Accompanied by the melodious sound of the harp, it was a peaceful scene of leisure and comfort.

Lin Ming found a place and sat down. A newspaper vendor came over to solicit business: This newspaper vendor was special. He did not focus on "selling", but focused on "renting". In addition to "Lingao Times", he also

There are also a variety of magazines published by Lingao, which you can read for just a few cents. They are very suitable for the spending power of ordinary store clerks.

Lin Ming has been accustomed to rent newspapers and read them every day since he and Wang Xinlong came here. He knew the importance of "Lingao Times" - even more important than the imperial court's Di Bao. But as a clerk, he showed his respect for Di Bao

If you are too interested, it will attract too much attention, and renting it will become more normal.

However, he soon discovered that he was overly worried. "Lingao Times" was widely circulated in the local area and its popularity among literate people was extremely high. Even illiterate people often asked literate people to read some of the newspaper's titles and contents.

.There are also such "newspaper readers" under this big banyan tree.

Lin Ming picked up a copy of the "Lingao Times". Originally, he only read the newspaper to keep track of the trends of the thief, just as he read the Di newspaper to keep track of the trends in the court and officialdom. Gradually, he started to like reading the newspaper.

Although he was a little unaccustomed to Kun Zei's style of writing, the various news reports in the newspaper were much more lively and interesting than the boring memorials and official documents in the Di newspaper.

From the newspaper, he learned about the activities of the Australians in the entire Qiongzhou Prefecture: how many immigrants had been resettled, how much wasteland had been reclaimed, which factory had been put into operation again, and what new policies were being implemented... everything was clearly explained in the newspaper,

Moreover, it is very vivid.

Of course, you can know what major events are happening in the world by reading the Di newspaper, but when it comes to lively, interesting, and clear narratives, it is definitely not as good as a newspaper. It seems that the thief runs a newspaper and writes articles because he is afraid that the people will not be able to understand, so he tries to break them up as much as possible.

Let’s break it down and explain it in detail. Although it seems trivial to Lin Ming, it can make people feel like they are actually there.

Lin Ming was reading an article about Sino-Japanese trade. This article took up most of the article in a eloquent manner, starting from the trade in the Song Dynasty, continuing to the Japanese pirate Wang Zhi in this dynasty, and then talking about the rise of the Zheng family.

Lin Ming knew something about doing business with the Japanese. He had also heard about people like Wang Zhi. As for Zheng Zhilong, he was even more familiar with it. However, he had never seen such a detailed article that comprehensively discussed Sino-Japanese trade.

.In particular, the detailed description of Japanese history in the article gave him a sense of freshness. You must know that the Ming Dynasty had never understood Japan's political system--of course, the imperial court never cared to know about these foreign affairs.

Lin Ming felt fresh and was reading carefully when he suddenly heard someone asking: "Do you have the last issue of "Friends"?"

As soon as the voice reached his ears, Lin Ming couldn't help but tremble: This was Li Yongxun's voice! He didn't dare to show too much surprise, so he covered his face with the newspaper and carefully moved his eyes upward. His heart jumped wildly, it was really her!

I saw that my sister-in-law was wearing a Ming Dynasty-style women's clothing today, holding a baggage in her hand, and she looked just like the women here. She was talking to the newspaper vendor, and was picking something at his stall. She saw his eyes.

He came over and signaled to him.

Lin Ming understood. He stood up, returned the newspaper to the vendor and replaced it with another. The moment he returned the newspaper, he felt something was stuffed into his palm. He quickly grabbed it and chose another magazine as if nothing had happened.

Go back and continue reading.

Li Yongxun bought a copy of "Friends" and went to mind his own business. Lin Ming carefully opened the note under the cover of the magazine. There was only one address written on the thin note: Dongmen City Cinema.

Lin Ming knew this place. It was a theater that specialized in showing Australian movies. Very few people who had been to Lingao had not seen the "Australian Movies". This was almost a must-have for any trip to Lingao. Lin Ming also

I followed Wang Xinlong there - he originally thought it was just a "La O movie" that can be found everywhere on the streets of Guangzhou, but he didn't expect that there was a big black cloth hanging inside. Just when he was puzzled, the black

The house suddenly lit up, and with the sound of a whistle, a train came out of the wall, blowing out white gas and whizzing towards him. Lin Ming screamed, rolled down from the table and chair, and continued to roll.

Take the crawler and escape outside.

Before he could run a few steps, he was pulled back by Wang Xinlong. There was a burst of laughter all around. Lin Ming turned around and realized that what he saw was just a "shadow play". The train was just light and shadow on the curtain.

However, the realism of this light and shadow cannot be compared to the shadow puppet show or "Australian movies" he has seen - this is exactly the same as the real thing! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, novels are better Update faster!
