Xia Tuo's words made the elders who entered the cave nod, although a big battle caused the tribe to suffer heavy losses, but they are not stupid, how can they not see that the tribe will have a better life in the future.

From now on, no matter how bad the Xia tribe is, it will not be much worse than the Lu tribe, and it will be impossible to sleep when you think about it.

The battle to destroy the Lu tribe made the elders have a new understanding of Xia Tuo's methods again, and they looked at him with convincing eyes one by one.

Xia Tuo's face flickered under the bonfire, and he showed a wry smile, when he was in charge of the tribe at the beginning, what he wanted most was to gain the trust of the clan, but now he felt a kind of pressure.

"The wounded people must not live in a dark and damp cave, nor can they touch some dirty things, and the skins that cover the wounds must be boiled in boiling water, and the next day they must be replaced with hemostatic grass. ”

In the valley, where the houses had been burned clean, wooden huts had been simply erected with large trees, and the injured tribesmen had temporarily been placed in them to rest, but some of them could not resist going back to the cave.

Even if you scold, it's useless, these big guys just want to sleep on the damp ground, and he, the patriarch, who is a little angry, has no temper.

"Hong, you take people to watch the point, and whoever enters the cave will drag it out and tie it to the tree with a rope. ”

For these guys with rough skin and thick flesh who are not afraid of being beaten, Xia Tuo can only use his own means, you reason with them, and they play muddy balls for you.

I'm glad to do it.

The patriarch beat me.

Unafraid.

"The new women and children of the tribe are all right. ”

As soon as the words turned, Xia Tuo asked out loud.

"The patriarch can rest assured that there is food and drink in the clan, and the women, children and children who have been added have settled down. ”

"That's good. ”

Nodding slightly, a big war, the stability that the tribe needs.

Although the population of the entire tribe is almost 1,000 people, including the newly joined women, children and children, after more than 100 men died in the battle, there are still some people in the tribe who are understaffed.

"Okay, all of you here are tribal elders and warriors, and the development of the tribe has something to do with everyone, so let's talk about it. ”

Gathering his thoughts, Xia Tuo continued, his eyes glancing over the faces of everyone in front of him.

"Uh. ”

He stroked his brow helplessly, what did he see?

The people present were stunned by his words.

One by one, they were stunned and were looking at him blankly.

“......”。

"Patriarch, that's it. ”

In the end, Hong Weng said, he looked at Xia Tuo in surprise, wanting to see if the patriarch was stupid.

How else can the tribe develop, still have to hunt, and there are still a lot of animal skins to offer to the Gale tribe?

"Yes, the Lu tribe used to be so majestic, but now it ......"

Li Suisheng echoed a sentence, and before he finished speaking, he was completely silent.

The patriarch glared at me~~

Li lowered his head, and the thick fingers of the little radish broke and broken.

Grievance.

Why is it always me who gets hurt?

Stroking his brows again, Xia Tuo could see that the clansmen in front of him had no plans for the development of the tribe at all.

Or maybe they don't have it in their minds at all.

How to develop a tribe?

Just follow the previous trajectory of the Lu tribe step by step.

As for tribal planning?

What's that, can you eat it?

Those who can't eat will be treated as delayed sleep.

He kind of played the piano to the cow.

It seems that the only way is to push them to do it.

"Let's all go back to sleep. ”

Under the cover of night, everyone's eyes were staring at each other, and they didn't even discuss a fart, so Xia Tuo had to wave his hand to let everyone retreat.

......

Early in the morning of the second day, Xia Tuo took him to the mountain above the valley, and I have to say that the location chosen by the Lu tribe is really good, and the valley is a place for people to live in the cracks of the mountain.

Also because of the movement of the earth's crust, the salt mines buried deep underground have been exposed.

Although the top of the mountain is slightly undulating, but in general it is a large area that tends to be flat, and after a busy morning, Xia Tuo measured the area of the top of the mountain.

The trend of the mountain is irregular, slightly showing a trend of wide in the south and narrow in the north, and when it reaches the narrowest part of the valley mouth in the north, the east-west distance of the valley mouth is almost only more than 300 steps long.

The further south you go along the valley mouth, the wider the distance between east and west becomes, until the width of the southernmost east and west has exceeded 2,000 steps, and the summit is generally an irregular trapezoidal shape with narrow north and wide south.

And the whole mountain from the top of the mountain down like a flat cone, layer by layer, the further down the mountain becomes, the bigger the mountain, in the southernmost part of the mountain is a falling cliff, like a knife and axe, straight down to the ground.

"The distance from east to west in the northernmost part is three hundred and five, the distance from east to west in the southernmost part is two thousand steps, and the distance from north to south is almost one thousand and one hundred steps. ”

Standing on the southernmost cliff at the top of the mountain, Xia Tuo whispered, then he squatted down and picked up a small stone and began to compare.

Regarding the ghost drawing talisman of the patriarch of the family, the deer looked at it from a distance and did not make a sound, he didn't know, and he didn't dare to ask.

After calculating for a while, Xia Tuo got up and looked around, to be honest, the area of this mountain top exceeded his expectations, even if the area of the cracked valley was removed, there was still an area of more than a thousand acres.

What a place.

"You say, it's good for us to build our tribe on this mountain. ”

"Ah......h

The abrupt Xia Tuo made a sound, and the deer was stunned and did not react.

Not caring about the deer's surprise, Xia Tuo stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance, and said to himself: "Let's level the land on the top of this mountain, build a house, and build terraces on both sides of the hillside, so that we don't have to worry about wild beasts rushing out of the jungle and attacking the tribe." ”

"Build a tribal hall there, where the elders discuss clan affairs, build a totem temple here, a place to worship totems, build a stone temple next to the witch, and build houses around the rest of the clansmen, so that we don't have to live in a damp cave again." ”

"Amount, amount. ”

The deer kept nodding behind Xia Tuo, although he didn't fully understand, but the patriarch said that he was right to nod.

Glancing back at the deer, Xia Tuo understood that he was talking in vain.

I can't take it with me.

It's hard to be a patriarch.

Xia Tuo, who returned to the tribe, began to play in the mud, for three days, no one in the tribe was seen, and three days later, the elders of the clan were summoned again.

"Patriarch. ”

The Great Elder spoke loudly as soon as he entered the cave with his cane.

"There are small tribes outside who come to change salt, and you don't care. ”

The destruction of the Lu tribe is only a small matter, and for the small tribes in the mountains farther away, they don't know that the Lu tribe has been wiped out, and they still trek through mountains and rivers to exchange for salt.

"Except for the green crystal salt in the cave, which cannot be moved, all the tribes who come to exchange for salt will be exchanged for them. ”

Xia Tuoman said nonchalantly, his main concern at the moment was on building a new tribal station.

"But we can't be as black as the Lu tribe, and we can't unify the weights and measures, and there can be no big or small in one jun, and there is salt that can be astringent, but not mixed with gravel. ”

Soon, the ministers and elders hurriedly came, and Xia Tuo got up and led the elders to come and said, "Look, this is the pattern of our new tribe!"

He pointed to the tribal sand table model made of clay in front of him and said with a sense of accomplishment.

The words fell, waiting for the shock of the elders.

One breath.

Two breaths

......

However, the surprise he expected did not appear.

Finally, Xia Tuo turned to look at the elder behind him.

Really.

The elders were shocked.

They were all speechless in astonishment.

Helplessly, Xia Tuo touched his nose and said, "Don't you have anything to say?"

"Can there be people living on the top of the mountain?"

"How do you get up?"

"How do you go hunting?"

"There's no water. ”

"Why don't you live in a cave? ”

......

"Yes. ”

"Climb up. ”

"Go hunting in the woods. ”

"With water trucks. ”

"The patriarch doesn't want to live in a cave and be a bug!"

Xia Tuo's face darkened, and he blocked the questions one by one.

"The patriarch is right. ”

Among the many people, Li saw the danger signal in the patriarch's eyes towards him, and immediately shouted loudly.

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes fell on him.

Traitor.

"I don't understand what the patriarch said. ”

Being watched by everyone, Li Hehe smiled, what can you do to me, dare to embarrass me Fat Li, the patriarch will retaliate.

"I listen to the patriarch. ”

Without empathizing with the clansmen, Xia Tuo sat down in front of the campfire again, he was really fed up with this kind of life of sitting on the ground and choking on ashes every day.

On the mountain, he is settled.

"Patriarch, go to live in the mountains, don't you want the valley?"

The Great Elder said in a hoarse voice, his eyes stared at Xia Tuo, what a good valley, he couldn't bear it.

"Yes, how not. ”

Xia Tuo replied, he went to see the salt mine in the depths of the valley, and it was really bad to hand it over to the Lu tribe, the outermost layer of the salt mine had been excavated, and the muddy brine appeared along the inclined road in the mine cave dozens of meters deeper.

But the Lu tribe is not a good thing at all, and is still digging downward, eager to hollow out the salt mine.

For him, directly extracting the brine in the mine can be boiled out of salt, why bother digging any crystalline green crystal salt, Mu had already taken some people to boil new salt under his orders.

"When the clan moves to the top of the mountain, I am going to seal the mouth of the valley and make the valley a private territory of the clan. ”

Xia Tuo continued, telling his people about his plans for the tribe.

"As for the water, it is not a problem at all, there are springs in the valley, the water is fast, the bamboo tribe has a bamboo forest, and the bamboo of the thickness of the bucket can be seen everywhere, and it is completely possible to make a waterwheel from the bamboo to lead the water in the valley to the top of the mountain for the tribesmen to use. ”

Without exception, he racked his brains to describe to the people what a waterwheel was.

"Patriarch, can stones build houses, and where are we going to get stones. ”

"A mountain full of stones can be taken on the spot. ”

These Xia Tuo had already planned to take the stones on the east and west sides of the mountain, and take the opportunity to take the stones to make the two sides of the mountain into terraces, of course, these need to be done step by step, and the first thing to convince these people in front of them is.
