167 - What to mow?
After the thief finished speaking, he looked at the people left and right: "If you don't have any opinions, then, when you have a meeting, you will report to Elder Babu, count the number of people, and then go to various departments to work through distribution." โ
"Yes!"
All the clansmen shouted so loudly that everyone seemed to be full of energy.
"Warriors, I have a question. โ
At this moment, after everyone had discussed the merits and rewards, the old patriarch spoke.
Ji Thief turned around: "What do you have to tell the patriarch?"
The old patriarch said: "It's such a warrior, I think you have made so many contributions to the tribe, and you should be a warrior, a little undeserved." โ
As soon as the old patriarch said this, everyone nodded: "Yes, Lord Warrior, if it weren't for you, how could we defeat the Black Mountain Tribe, and how could we have no worries about eating and drinking now." โ
The witch's eyes lit up: "Perhaps, how about we keep the title of warrior unchanged and raise his status?"
Ji Thief hurriedly waved his hand: "I can't help it." โ
A group of people thought that the thief was polite: "Warrior, don't shirk it, the wizard said it very well, the title remains the same, and the status is improved." โ
The old patriarch agreed with what the witch said.
The thief wanted to cry without tears, and said in my heart that I tried hard to fade out of sight, what are you doing?
Low-key, ancestors.
Thinking in his heart, Ji Thief kept going to see Ah Zheng, and hinted with his eyes that this guy would say a few words to himself.
As a result, Ah Zai pretended to be stupid as if he didn't see it.
The thief pouted speechlessly and scolded the little rabbit cub.
Seeing that no one objected, the old patriarch waved his hand: "Then it is decided, in the tribe, the warrior has the power to decide all the changes in positions and the transfer of departments." What do you think?"
Ji Thief pursed his lips and glanced at the old patriarch, sighed, alas, my brother always wants to be low-key, but everyone doesn't allow it, how can this be broken.
It wasn't until the moment when the thief nodded and agreed that the meritorious deeds reward meeting after defeating the Black Mountain tribe came to an end.
All the clansmen went to report to the Bรกb, and even with the help of Ah Zai, the pressure of the surge in numbers kept them busy from the morning to the afternoon before they counted all the members.
"There are two hundred and fifty people in the whole clan, from the patriarch to the ordinary patriarch. โ
The corners of Ji Thief's mouth twitched uncontrollably, two hundred and five... It's an auspicious number.
Of these people, there are one hundred and sixty-eight female members and eighty-two male members. In addition, there are six elderly people, including the patriarch and me, and about thirteen children. Again, Bรกb.
The high-ranking people sitting around couldn't help but laugh when they heard this number, and it was obvious that the number of people in the tribe had increased dramatically, which made them excited.
Only Ji Thief frowned: "Why are there so few old people and children?"
"In the past, the old people would be driven out of their tribes in the winter because of the lack of food and left to fend for themselves. As for children, when the two sides go to war, they also attack children first, so it is difficult for the elderly and children to survive. โ
Ji Thief lowered his head and pondered when he heard this, that is to say, although the primitive society had a newborn birth rate that was not lower than that of modern society, the survival rate of this child was outrageously low.
Weather can take children's lives, and poor sanitation can also take children's lives.
Because of the lack of food, children are also considered to be the first to abandon the choice.
"How many abandoned children are there in the mountains?"
"There are a lot, but most of the time it is difficult for them to live to grow up, and even if they do, they will be taken captive by the nearest tribe and absorb the powerful tribe. โ
"From today onwards, there will be no abandonment of children in the tribe, and besides, if there are half-adult abandoned children near our tribe, no matter how many, they will be directly absorbed into the tribe, understand?"
Everyone looked at each other and was a little embarrassed: "But warriors, in this case, it will be a great burden on our tribe, in case there is not enough food to eat..."
"If you don't have enough food, you can get it again, and manpower is the most important resource. "The thief is categorical and does not allow any dissenting voices.
"Okay, okay. โ
"Okay, apart from the old people and children, as well as us high-level people, how much labor can be used in the tribe?" asked Ji Thief.
"Well, two hundred and twenty-one. โ
"Well, among them, the male clansmen are given priority to the departments supplied to Ah Ju and Ah Liang, these two departments are the key to the tribe, so the requirements for entering these two departments must be young and middle-aged, do you two?" Ji Thief looked at Ah Ju and Ah Liang and asked.
The two looked at each other: "Understood!"
"Alright, go pick your own people. โ
"Yes!"
"In addition, among the female clansmen, you can pick out some of them and add them to the medical department. And Elder Babu, you also pick out some to go into your logistics department. โ
"After that, Usma's department will pick out thirty to fifty clansmen, and the rest will all be handed over to the Fat Elder's Ministry of Agriculture. โ
The thief divided the number of people like this.
There was no objection from the crowd.
"Everyone, for a better tomorrow, come on!" Ji Thief roared.
Everyone shouted in response.
"By the way, Warrior, what about the thirteen children?"
"Well, let them learn from everyone first, and then start working when they are adults. Ah Niu Azhi, don't hurry up and come over to discuss the laws of the tribe. โ
Ah Niu and Ah Zhi both glanced at each other, and then sat down obediently opposite the thief.
"The first rule in the tribe is that if anyone betrays the tribe, he will be put to death!"
Ji Thief said.
Everyone present was shocked: "Warrior, this, this is too serious." โ
The thief looked at everyone: "The tribe raises them and protects them, and they still want to betray the tribe, such an unfaithful person, can they be kept for the New Year? Execution by direct poisoning. โ
Everyone sighed, "Okay, okay." โ
"Second, bullying is strictly forbidden in the tribe. If someone is found to have deliberately bullied a tribesman, he will be imprisoned for one month and will not be allowed to come out, and if he does more than three times, he will be expelled from the tribe. Of course, it's okay for clansmen to go head-to-head with each other, but only if both parties agree. โ
"Prison?" everyone didn't understand, and asked the thief suspiciously.
The thief said, "I'll explain to you about the prison later." โ
The crowd nodded.
"Article 3, it is strictly forbidden to bully female people. If someone is interested in the female clansmen, then pursue it themselves, but if anyone uses it, they will be cut directly. โ
Tushan asked innocently, "What to cut?"
Ji Thief glanced at the crotch of the earth mountain: "What do you say?"
In an instant, Tushan felt a chill between his legs, and hurriedly sneered: "I, I know." โ
"Article 4, the top of the tribe, absolutely do not allow any abuse of power for personal gain, if discovered, dismissal and imprisonment, expulsion from the tribe, poisoning at worst. โ
"Fifth, the top tribal leaders cannot use their power to oppress ordinary clansmen, and if they are discovered, they will be imprisoned once for a warning and expelled from the tribe twice. โ
"Article 6: It is strictly forbidden to steal or plunder other people's property among tribal people, and once discovered, they will be expelled from the tribe. The above six prohibitions are the key to our tribe's foothold, and they must be implemented. Everyone, is there anything you don't understand?"
The thief asked the crowd.
He looked around and saw that everyone's faces showed more or less dissatisfied expressions, so he sighed: "All things are people-oriented, if we can't be courteous and respectful, but go to be the ruler of the high, then how can the people below support us?"
"The Frost Valley Tribe is destined to be a fair, democratic tribe. Only in this way will we still be standing thousands of years later, when other tribes have disappeared into the dust of history. โ
The old patriarch sighed twice, and the first one said, "I agree with the warrior's statement. โ
Almost everyone is the fourth and fifth of the diaphragm, as a high-level, there must always be some privileges, right, but now that the old patriarch has said so as the head of a clan, what else can others say?
No matter how tall you are, can you be taller than the old patriarch?
So, everyone nodded and said, "Yes!"
