Captain Wang was excited to take this opportunity! He immediately held an on-the-spot agitation meeting and talked about how evil the three mountains were and how the people were oppressed and suffering. Although he talked about how thirsty and thirsty they were, it was a pity that the effect was not very good later on. It made him sigh at how poor the people's mental awareness was! In the future, we need to strengthen education in this area!

When Li Hailong saw this, he was not willing to let go of such an opportunity. Therefore, he also carried out publicity to improve his ability and improve his quality of life. He did not listen to much of the bitter revolutionary principles, but he did not miss a single word about how to improve his life! The degree of support was higher and higher!

When this group of poor people knew that this group of outsiders really wanted to help them, they would have white rice to eat, meat to eat, and good food to wear! His own child could even go to school to learn how to read and write! They could even live in a big house…

. Such a prospect was quite exciting! Who didn't want to live a better life? Who didn't want their children to live better than themselves? Therefore, everyone's mood was raised once again. The originally chaotic scene became much more self-aware after everyone realized that they had to learn from the people in front of them and become a cultured, knowledgeable, and promising new citizen. At least, the noise became lower...

Then, Li Hailong raised the requirements for such a beautiful life. He said that they had to learn culture well, which meant that everyone had to know how to read! They had to be organized and disciplined! He also had to talk about hygiene and so on, so that these bitter people would start to compare themselves to see how they could meet the requirements that Li Hailong had mentioned?

Some of the more impatient people had already begun to teach their children a lesson!

Chen Dongbiao and the others who had the most contact with Li Hailong were even more shocked! They were considered to be well-informed people here, but they had never seen anyone care so much about the lowly. The enthusiasm of those bitter people who had just arrived made them realize that they were nothing in front of them!

Although these people had not done anything really hateful, they were usually the ones who bullied the weak. Otherwise, they would not be standing in the position of the boss here. Usually, these people would nod and bow when they saw him. On the surface, they were quite respectful to him, but he knew in his heart that they were hypocritical! Now, this scene made them understand what true support and support meant!

This also negated their original intention of just coming here to get some benefits. Instead, they decided to follow these people with determination! If he followed this group of Walkers, would he be afraid that he would not have a good life in the future? Now, other than being completely impressed, they didn't seem to have any other thoughts!

Naturally, the distribution went smoothly. When these poor people received the rice and flour salt, they were all moved to tears. Many of them even knelt down, especially when they received the silver coins from Li Hailong, Captain Wang, and the two merchants. Many families were sometimes forced to buy children because they lacked a little money. Some of them did not have the money to see a doctor, so they would lose their eyes and their loved ones when they saw them! Now, the other party was personally sending money into his hands! This was more practical than anything else. These simple commoners would not only kowtow to express their gratitude! This made Li Hailong and the others pull up one and then another. All of them were exhausted!

However, these commoners had decided on them. Ever since the British occupied this place, the original government had run away, and the British did not care about this place. Everyone here was like a zone that was not controlled by anyone. However, there were no benefits, but it did not mean that they did not pay. When they worked in the opposite side, they had to pay all kinds of taxes, but no one cared about their lives! Therefore, everyone had no place to vent their grievances.

Now, there was finally an organization called the Zhoushan Self-Defense Corps to manage these things! In the future, he would have a place to seek justice! He was now considered a permanent member of the staff, and these people who came to manage him even gave him money and food!

When had he ever encountered such a good thing in his life? Looking at the people who sent the messages, they were all harmonious and amiable! When had anyone from the government ever treated him like this? This gave everyone more hope for their future lives! It also allowed everyone to quickly recognize the Zhoushan Self-Defense Regiment. Moreover, there was such a large group of people who were still asking if the Self-Defense Regiment accepted people. He hoped that he could join them!

When Chen Dongbiao and his gang heard that they wanted to join the Self-Defense Forces, they were anxious! Why hadn't he thought of such a move when he was helping?! Now, he had been tricked by someone who came later! The few of them discussed and quickly went to find Hai Long and the others, hoping that they could become the first batch of people to join the Self-Defense Forces!

When Li Hailong and the others heard the news, they were a little surprised. When did they say that they were recruiting? After asking Chen Dongbiao, he found out that it was the people from the slums who wanted to participate. Chen Dongbiao and the others were afraid that they would fall behind, so they asked because they were familiar with them!

Naturally, such good news made Captain Li Hai Long and the others extremely happy! Although things had come a little too suddenly, it didn't mean that they didn't have any ideas.

Therefore, Chen Dongbiao and the others were given a new task, which was to register the people who wanted to join the Self-Defense Forces and then investigate in detail what social connections they had. Looking at the backgrounds of these people, the explanation for Chen Dongbiao was to understand their strengths, so that it would be easier to arrange in the future!

Chen Dongbiao saw that he was assigned to do such a thing. It seemed that he had almost stepped into the Self-Defense Corps! Naturally, it would be more attractive! Moreover, he even suggested that they should split into two groups and do it in their own small city. This suggestion immediately received everyone's approval and praise! Chen Dongbiao, who had been praised, followed Huang Zhiqiang and Old Yu, who were divided into two groups, to register happily…

After Chen Dongbiao and the others left, Li Hailong touched his sore arm and complained,

"Other people count their money to their own ends, but who counts to the outside like us!”

Captain Wang also laughed.

"How much is this? My hands are already sore! I just looked at the report. There are only 632 households in total! I'll just treat it as if you sent it alone. It's only 1264 yuan! Looks like he lacks exercise! However, I don't think your hands are sore. It should be heartache, right? Do you feel heartache for this little bit of money?"

"Why would I be heartbroken over such a small amount of money? My hands are sore from pulling these people! Each and every one of them had to kowtow and kneel. In the end, it made me dizzy…"

"If you guys don't feel heartache, I do! Look, almost half of the things that were shipped here were gone just like that! Our island doesn't produce these things! You can use it sparingly in the future!"

Unexpectedly, Uncle Gen couldn't stand it anymore.

"There's more! I wonder who taught you to do this? Who would listen to you preach like this? Think back to the sports we did back then! That was true exercise! One had to know that there were a few bad elements on the side! This way, everyone would be able to compare and their emotions would rise. Their contradictions would also have a point!

If they were like you guys, what would they do if you guys were to ignite their enthusiasm? Was he going to burn down his own house?! If he didn't even understand this simple logic, what revolution was there to make?”

Captain Wang, Li Hailong, and the others felt especially ashamed. Indeed, who had experienced this before? Wasn't it all from books? As for the details inside, he naturally didn't know!

"Also, since their enthusiasm is so high, we should strike while the iron is hot and quickly organize various organizations. Militia? Those with a firm stance and good background could be promoted to the main force!

There was also the village joint defense team. They could organize the elderly to participate. Although the old ladies and grandpas did not have much strength, it was still very useful to shout at the time! Other groups such as children's groups and women's groups could be set up now. This way, the work would be much simpler! Then, we'll send a few people from this side, and the village will be under our control.”

"Aiya, Uncle Gen! How do you know so much?"

"Brat, this is what we used to do when we were young! How could he not know? Your father and the others joined the children's group at that time!”

"Yes, yes, yes. These are good experiences!”

"What experience? He's just bragging! If there were really experienced people, it would be the old village chief and the others! Unfortunately, they were not on the island now! At that time, we were just following behind and making a scene!”

Li Hailong immediately thought of a sentence after hearing what Uncle Gen said. Having an elder in the family was better than having a treasure!

After Uncle Gen's interest was piqued, he continued to recall the sports he participated in, which benefited everyone present, especially Captain Elephant King. He had finally found the answer to the questions that he had never understood. It was not that he was not enthusiastic enough, but that his methods were wrong!

Then, based on Uncle Gen's introduction, they immediately put these experiences into practice. First, they divided these people into positive, average, backward, stubborn, and opposing categories. Then, they arranged them according to these categories. Those who should be promoted, those who should be educated, those who should be monitored, and those who should be defeated as negative examples.

Since it was the first time that everyone had such an exercise plan, they would ask Uncle Gen for advice from time to time. Uncle Gen didn't hide anything and said whatever came to his mind…

As time passed, the sky slowly began to darken. Just as everyone was about to make up their minds, someone from the small town suddenly sent someone to invite the few masters here for dinner!

The person who came also brought Chen Dongbiao, Boss Yu, and Boss Ding's invitations! The invitation was a little confusing. It didn't specify who to invite. It just asked the people here to send their leaders over. The time was 12:00!
