There was a constant stream of people before the temple.

After the temple was unveiled, incense was already lit here. Under Chen Daolin's instructions, the temple began to be incense day and night.

There is no custom of burning incense to the gods on the Roland continent, but for Chen Daolin, it is not difficult to create something like "incense". Under his intentional guidance, burning incense and worshiping God has become a new thing in the gathering place here.

The Temple of Light, which is traditionally believed in by the Rolands, only prayer rituals, but there is no ceremony of burning incense and worship. Chen Daolin's "grafting" has aroused the curiosity of many people.

These days, every day, believers will go to the temple to burn incense and pray to the other world version of Guan Erge, which will make the temple of Zhenjun Temple endless incense.

At the beginning, only the believers and servants of God came to burn incense. Later, some local craftsmen's families came to learn from awe, curiosity, yearning, and many other thoughts, and came to the temple to pray and burn incense.

Chen Daolin originally ordered people to make a small amount of incense and candles to confess to them in front of the temple to use for burning incense, but unexpectedly, there were too many people burning incense and candles, so they had to ask people to make a batch of them.

However, what satisfied Chen Daolin was that although there were many people coming to the temple to burn incense and pray, many of them just came to join in the fun with curiosity. But it was obvious that the Roland people still had a sense of awe for God, and no one took the incense and candles home to use them themselves in the chaos - especially those candles. The candles made in Chen Daolin's workshop here were of excellent quality, and even merchants who had seen these candles asked to buy them from Chen Daolin.

Chen Daolin would visit the temple every night. As a pope and a high priest, he, as the chief charlatan, naturally sets an example.

Every night when he comes to pray and burn incense, it will attract people around him to watch. Chen Daolin has long been used to such scenes.

Chen Daolin was very satisfied with this. This proved that he had a very successful subtle religious influence on these tens of thousands of people.

It seems that the time is almost the same, and it is time to launch your own second step plan for religious expansion!

In front of everyone, Chen Daolin slowly walked into the temple with a sacred and awe-inspiring expression on his face, stood in the middle in front of the statue. He bowed to the statue of Guan Gong above, and then took three incense from the hand of the werewolf Chuck, his entourage beside him, and lit it with his own hands...

During his incense burning and praying, it was obvious that the crowd around him also quieted down. No one spoke loudly, and the eyes of the "pope" were obviously a bit awe.

Chen Daolin stood there, burning incense and praying, but in fact he was silently planning his plan in his heart.

The second step in religious expansion is to bring all the tens of thousands of tribes here into their own religion as much as possible!

Chen Daolin knew very well that his Unparalleled Martial God Sect had been established for too short, and he did not have time to follow the process of slowly preaching doctrines and slowly spreading myths themselves in Christianity or Buddhism.

If you want to rise in the shortest time, the only feasible way is to... induce it!

Chen Daolin knew very well that he could not catch everyone in one place. There are always smart people in this world, and there are always atheists who do not believe in God.

Fortunately, Chen Daolin comes from reality. He has many templates from history books that can be used to imitate.

In the first stage, the small number of Protestants he selected had begun to gradually establish a certain prestige among the crowd, especially Chen Daolin deliberately learned a guy's approach: Zhang Jiao in the late Han Dynasty.

Of course. Heaven is dead and Huang Tian is standing. This kind of thing cannot be learned for the time being. Chen Daolin learned the routine of fu Shui curing diseases and expanding influence and winning people's hearts.

He is a magician and proficient in pharmacy. Therefore, after the establishment and unveiling of the temple these days, in addition to burning incense and praying, he also has an important role. This is to openly accept the sick people in the gathering place!

Whether you are accidentally injured on the construction site, or have minor illnesses such as headache, fever, colds, etc., you can go to the temple to seek help.

As long as you kowtow a few times to the statue of Guan Gong and burn a stick of incense, then there will be a servant in the temple that will accept you and then give you a free copy of commonly used medicine.

Of course, only those Protestants or the family members of the servant of God who suffer from serious illness can invite senior clergy in the church, namely Lord Darling Chen, to go to the diagnosis and treatment in person. Chen Daolin's treatment skills and pharmacy skills, basically ordinary patients are cured by the disease.

Even though some difficult and complicated diseases are difficult to cure in the short term, one treatment can be relieved much immediately if it is performed.

This has caused unintentional expansion of the weight in people’s hearts!

Everyone will get sick, and in this feudal world, the level of medicine is undoubtedly very low, especially in backward areas such as the northwest where the land is sparsely populated, where doctors exist only in those densely-eyed towns.

These days, the "fushi Water" of the Wushuang Martial God has spread among the crowd, and it is said that it can treat many daily headaches, fever and other minor diseases.

Of course, it is not surprising to say that the ingredients of this talisman water are nothing more than some isatis root fat seas. It is quite effective in treating some simple colds and coughs.

As for the next stage, Chen Daolin's idea is very clear, and he will tempt these people with greater benefits!

You know, those who were recruited by Chen Daolin and brought their family to the place to open up the land with him were all people living on the poverty line!

Who would be willing to take his family and children through mountains and rivers to follow him away from the city to such a place?

To put it bluntly, most of the tens of thousands of people recruited by Chen Daolin are "proletarians"!

What is the biggest characteristic of proletarians? Of course, it is the strong hope for "property".

To put it aside, in the real world, in the founding process of the Celestial Empire, why did the slogan "Communism" attract countless people to follow?

It was very simple. At that time, 90% of the people in the Celestial Empire were proletarians. Are proletarians? Anyway, they are proletarians, so they can certainly be unlucky for the common people's property.

If you don’t believe it, ask. How many of those who are “proper” themselves are willing to go to commune with others?

Since the demand of proletarians is to become possessive, then Chen Daolin has a way!

His second stage of religious expansion is actually very simple.

He is waiting.

By autumn, after the first batch of corn test fields mature and harvest, at least on their own territory, grain will no longer become a material that needs to be imported and purchased.

With crops suitable for this place, Chen Daolin still has a large area of ​​land...

One of Chen Daolin’s upcoming plans is:

Teaching production!

He would set aside at least two thousand acres of arable land as the "cultural property" of the Wushuang Martial God Cult!

He will publicly announce to everyone that the church property will be the common property of all the believers of the Wushuang Martial God Cult!

As long as you enter the Wushuang Martial God Cult, everyone can be assigned a piece of "teaching land". The ownership of the teaching land belongs to the church, but the right to farm belongs to the believers who are assigned to the fields. The believers are responsible for farming, and know that a small part of the income needs to be handed over to the church.

Chen Daolin had no doubt about what kind of sensation this approach would cause to the tens of thousands of proletarians under his command!

He would never underestimate the desire for land by an ordinary farming civilized people!!!

As long as you hear that you can get the land if you join the church... Even if the ownership belongs to the church and you can only cultivate it yourself, it will definitely attract countless people to join your church if you break your head!

And as long as you come in, you want to get the land, you must abide by the rules of my Unparalleled Martial God Sect!!

People are like this, when you have nothing. You don’t care about anything.

But once you have it, you will be willing to make a lot of sacrifices, compromises and efforts to save what you have!

At this time, if someone wants to take away what you have, then many people will dare to fight to the death!!

With a yield of 1,000 kilograms per acre of corn, three acres of land are enough to support an ordinary family, and there is still surplus!

Chen Daolin was preparing to take out two thousand acres of land, which was enough to recruit six or seven hundred families. If you roughly calculate it, it would be at least three or five thousand people!

In this way, Chen Daolin has the confidence to turn half of the ten thousand people under his command into a firm supporter and supporter of the Wushuang Martial God Cult! Even if they may not believe in God, in order to protect the land and interests they have obtained, they will become a firm defender of the Wushuang Martial God Cult!!

There are many idle wastelands here. Chen Daolin has sent people to observe them everywhere. There are also many lands in places that are suitable for burning wasteland and changing to cultivated land.

At that time, as your power expands, you can continue to slowly purchase land from the city guard government of Rova City.

After the new city is built, the benefits of the city will also become "cultural property". At that time, when a large number of proletarians joined the Wushuang Martial God Cult and became "proprietors", the Wushuang Martial God Cult will truly gain a foothold in the northwest!

No matter who wants to attack his Unparalleled Martial God Sect, he will face a large group of believers who swear to protect his "cultural property" to the death!

"Dig deep holes, accumulate grain, and become king slowly."

Chen Daolin stood in front of the statue of Guan Gong and smiled and said to himself.

...

When walking out of the temple, all the people along the way would automatically separate to both sides, give up the road in the middle, and make a respectful attitude towards the "high priest" who was walking, and some people bent down from afar to salute Chen Daolin.

Chen Daolin couldn't help feeling a little fluttered in his heart.

When he returned to his residence, he immediately saw Lodell sitting in the hall, discussing something with Baron Pierre.

Seeing Chen Daolin walking in, Lodell immediately jumped up and ran towards Chen Daolin with an excited expression on his face. He grabbed Chen Daolin's sleeve with both hands and said quickly: "Darling, you're here just right, I came up with a good idea!"

"What's the good idea?" Chen Daolin sat on the chair in the middle and poured himself a glass of water. The little maid next to him had already come over, picked up the fan and stood beside Chen Daolin and fanned him.

"Aren't you going to get a teaching property?" Lodell smiled and said, "I thought, since you want to win people's hearts, it's better to do it thoroughly! How about we build another church school? All believers who believe in our religion can let their children enter church schools for free and teach them to read and read... In this way, many people will definitely be grateful to you!"

Chen Daolin smiled slightly, his expression did not change much, and he glanced at Lodell: "Did you think of this yourself?"

Lodell smiled embarrassedly: "I... have read historical materials on the rise of the Tulips. Du Wei did this when he created the situation in the Tulips Territory in the northwest. However, the one he made was called tribe school, and we can make it into a church school, which is the same thing..."

Chen Daolin was silent for a while, looked at Lodel, and then slowly said: "The idea is good. But for the time being... there is no hurry to do this."

"Why?" Lodell was a little dissatisfied. The little girl came up with a good idea. She was very excited. She didn't want Chen Daolin to throw cold water directly, so she was a little unwilling to accept it: "Is this idea not good?"

"The idea is good, but the time has not come yet." Chen Daolin shook his head. He sighed, knowing that it would not hurt Lodell's enthusiasm, so he had to explain to her patiently.

"First, our career is still very small now. There are 10,000 people, but in fact only one-third of the people brought by their families. I have counted the population proportion of these people. There are less than 200 underage children. So, for the time being, it is not very urgent to set up a church school.

Secondly, these people are just attracted to us now, but they are not really attracted to us. The result of building a school is to win their favor - as long as we start to develop the "teaching and production field" plan, it is enough to make them return to us! And it is the kind of completely returning to us. In this case, creating a church school to gain the little favor. In fact, it is optional.

Third, don't worry, I'm not saying that your idea is bad. On the contrary, your idea is good. But my idea is that setting up a church school is not just to win the favor of these people! The greatest significance of the existence of a church school is to instill our doctrines and concepts into the next generation! At the same time, cultivate a group of talents I need in the future! Therefore, this school must not just gather a group of children and teach them to read and read! I have a very detailed plan for the future school! This thing must be done, and it must be done well! I will treat this thing as the future after training it for me.

A key plan for continuous talent is carried out. But it is not the time yet! At least we have not yet developed a complete and systematic religious teaching, or what I said is more blunt, we do not have our own clear 'ism', do you understand? Only when we have formed things can we take it out and instill others! In addition, if I want to cultivate various talents, then I need people from all kinds of different fields to be teachers! Wait aside, in the near future, I will get a group of very outstanding people to be teachers. At that time... maybe our church schools can still cultivate magicians."

Cultivate magicians?

"You... don't want to build a magic school, do you?" Lodell's eyes widened.

Chen Daolin curled his lips: "Magic... is not actually a great thing, but everyone has been pretending to be mysterious and mysterious. Is it difficult to cultivate magic talents? I don't think so."

Although Lodell was still a little dissatisfied, at least Chen Daolin convinced him.

Then both Lodell and Baron Pierre left, and Chen Daolin also returned to his room to rest.

He closed the door, walked into his bedroom, took off his robe and hung it on the wall, walked to the desk, pulled out a book about medicine from the bookshelf, then lay on a recliner, snapped his fingers casually, and a candle on the shelf next to the recliner began to burn.

Lying on the recliner and turning over a few pages of the book, Chen Daolin felt that he had relaxed.
To be continued...
