Report

Rorschach originally thought that he was already busy enough. After all, he was short on manpower. However, he didn't realize that when you had enough manpower, the number of things to do would always exceed your limits.

When people were busy, they would often forget about time. It had been almost half a month since the three-way peace treaty had been signed, but the things Rorschach had on hand … were getting busier and busier.

In the grand scheme of things, this was a good thing. After all, there would always be a lot of new work to do when one was on the rise.

For example, Rorschach was currently conflicted about setting up a news station in Cape Town and publishing a newspaper.

This was a job that Lori had previously given to him. Cape Town lacked an advanced news organization and business philosophy. Reality had already proven that traditional entertainment was powerless in the face of modern news media. It would be a waste if he didn't take advantage of such a large empty market.

No matter if it was starting a business, spreading the teachings of the Game Church to increase potential believers, or trying to control public opinion and opinion in Cape Town, all of these things would be extremely profitable.

This was especially the case since Sydeon was still unclear about the effectiveness of modern media. There was a lack of management and a loss of position. This was the golden opportunity to enter the scene.

However, wasn't there a saying that the more perfect one's dreams were, the more harsh reality would be?

"… There are so many things for me to do by myself. I won't be able to do it even if I die from exhaustion."

None of the first batch of descenders from the Game Church understood such things. Setting up a news station in Vila Nova Dônia was already difficult enough. The new "Aishi People" (stowaways) could barely manage after some training. However, the Aishi People in Cape Town obviously couldn't do it.

The reason? Actually, it was quite simple. There was a language barrier.

The Seymour people's language had thirty-seven main letters and twenty-one secondary characters. It was more complicated to learn than English, but definitely much simpler than Chinese.

Back in Vila Nova Dônia, there were cases where people didn't know how to read. Of course, things would change as time passed. Thousands of literacy classes in Dounia were working hard to popularize the Aishi Common Tongue, but this wouldn't happen in a short period of time … Rorschach was seriously considering launching a four-panel comic and a phonetic phonetic story series. He was even planning to start a pictorial magazine.

Descenders generally had a language system built into their faith panel. Even if they didn't intend to learn it seriously, they could truly grasp the language of another race. With the support of the faith system, simple conversations would be no problem.

Rorschach, on the other hand, was learning the language of the Seymour people. With the help of the language system, he was able to pick it up quickly. Daily conversations were no longer a problem. However, when it came to writing an article, not only did it have to be understandable, it also had to be entertaining and interesting. That required time.

And even if he did master it completely, it wouldn't be enough for him to write it all by himself even if he worked himself to death. Besides, it was impossible for Rorschach to spend all his energy on it.

There were too many difficulties and bottlenecks. Rorschach complained as he started to work. He would take it one step at a time.

However, in Cape Town, when he started working, the situation became more and more complicated.

Media workers had to be intellectuals, or at least literate. However, the literacy rate of the Seymour people was relatively low. Most of the educated Seymour people were merchants, officials, and priests. Their literacy rate wouldn't exceed 30%.

Under such circumstances, instead of relying on the media to spread news, it would be better to find a few bards to travel and sing at the same time.

Rorschach also intended to do so. After all, the Aishi People had a lot of experience in exploring new lands, and there were precedents for this kind of situation.

In most cases, especially in a relatively primitive society, the storytellers and bards in places like taverns, hotels, and restaurants were good media for spreading news.

However, when it started, the results were terrible. First of all, the Aishi bards couldn't be used here. They couldn't even pass the language barrier. Furthermore, there were no bards in the local area. Musicians were often part-time shamans, which was a subsidiary of the religious clergy. Their instruments were basically wooden drums.

"Then how do you spread the news?"

"Every street has a special low-level official. He is in charge of everything, including passing on orders from the higher-ups. They are literate. However, the commoners wouldn't spend money to learn to read, let alone talk about music. The Seymour people's language doesn't even have the word 'musician'. "

The answer given by the locals was a little despairing. Even Lori regretted her decision. It was like selling an umbrella to a place where it didn't rain.

After thinking about it carefully, Rorschach didn't plan to give up. This wasn't an impossible task.

The direction of the previous decision wasn't wrong. The more barren the spiritual civilization, the more room there was for them to move in. It was just a matter of spending more time and effort, but the benefits would be more amazing.

There weren't any bards or storytellers that could be used? It didn't matter. He could use the Wasteland Seymour people in Vila Nova Dônia to train them. The Aishi People had experts in this field.

There weren't any Seymour stories or music that could be told? He could just translate the Aishi's words. He could still think of something from the human resources in Vila Nova Dônia.

However, this aspect of work was destined to change from short-term to long-term. First of all, they had to start the operation of the Corner City's news station and start this aspect of work.

Moreover, this was very necessary. The local news media would be caught sooner or later.

Various plans and methods were arranged in Rorschach's mind. The simplest and most effective plan with the lowest cost came out. It shouldn't be difficult to find a Seymour person to read newspapers and magazines in public.

The next problem was that the literacy rate of the Seymour people in Cape Town was very low. The literacy rate of the Seymour people in the Wasteland was even worse. Even the higher-ups of the tribes didn't need to be literate.

In order to translate the Aishi People's language into the Seymour people's language, he would need an expert in this field. Moreover, this would probably be a long-term job. He would need to be stationed in Cape Town for a long time.

However, with the arrival of a person, all of this was no longer a problem.
