Chapter 444: Fight, Town, Eat!
Don't look at He Zilong's current team, there are more women and fewer men, but in fact, not every indigenous warrior will be assigned and all the women will be occupied. After all, there are only tired cows, and there are no people, and the more women they like, the better.
There are too many women, but it is also troublesome, plus there are always women's faces that do not meet the aesthetics of some people, plus it is a material rationing society. How much supplies to give to each soldier is He Zilong's final say, so in fact, in the tribe of 500 people, there are only more than 100 women who are working and lonely, and there are no men.
Different from modern times, here, whether a man is looking for a woman to marry, or a woman is looking for a man to marry, as long as it is the active party, the active party has to give a gift money. Even if a woman is looking for a man, she must give the man gifts, not things.
This is also what He Zilong thinks is fair, of course, men find more things to give women, and women find men to join their tribes and give less.
Don't look like it doesn't seem like much on the surface, but it's actually quite difficult for ordinary people to calculate it carefully.
How many beasts can a small tribe kill in a year, and keep the whole hide?
Some small tribes may not be able to save a few animal skins throughout the year, which can only solve the problem of a warrior begging for a wife, and does not fit the actual situation at all. In fact, it's heartfelt when I think about it, if it weren't for He Zilong's whole tribe, it would be like someone taking the lead in opening the hanging, I didn't think that now that it is in the primitive period, it would be so difficult to ask for a daughter-in-law, tragedy!
After calming down the negative impact of a cheating father's thinking, He Zilong returned to his house and began to calculate the gains and losses.
To put it simply, men marry wives and women recruit sons-in-law, using this method to increase the adult working population. Pure profit part-time work model, not to mention that there are not so many homeless people at all, and there is no concern for wives and children, to be honest, loyalty is questionable.
Based on the current population, the extra 100 indigenous women need three or four skins to marry a daughter-in-law, and only one or two skins are needed to recruit a son-in-law. There are only about one or two hundred animal skins, and two or three pieces of pottery can be exchanged for one animal skin, and it is similar if you use salt.
If you want to get the population, you need at least two hundred and fifty to three or four hundred pieces of pottery, or half of the salt, but in exchange for the pure population, and you have to ensure that the people eat and drink for some time.
In this way, it is only necessary to prepare 1,000 kilograms of salt and N hundred pieces of pottery, but at the same time, these are guaranteed. Some of the partners, as well as the eldest prince, also have to hand over some, but the time is limited. Because judging from the current situation, chaos may appear at any time.
The time is a little insufficient, and the overtime is a bit too urgent, or not enough.
"It seems that the only way to trade is to come up with a way that is not afraid of exposing the source of the salt. Anyway, I don't plan to live here for the rest of my life, as long as I find the exit, I will take the gems and supplies with me, and lead the team to run. I can't care so much!" He Zilong made a plan and decision for himself.
-
Subsequently, He Zilong summoned all the men.
"Except for the pottery makers, everyone else, except for the warriors who defended the tribe, everyone else can move with me, go and boil salt now. He Zilong explained.
When he went to fetch salt crystals on the way, He Zilong asked the left-behind personnel to start grinding beans.
Grinding beans is a difficult job, because there is no stone grinding, and I was still experimenting before, so naturally I can only grind it by hand. At this time, I couldn't find a ready-made substitute for the time being, so I had to hand it over to manual grinding.
The method is naturally very old, and it is also time-consuming and laborious to do, and at the same time, it will waste a lot of beans that do not have to be wasted, but time waits for no one, and there is no choice.
There are not enough people to make pottery, and He Zilong didn't care about what to hide this time, so he called the newcomer over. From soil selection and soil kneading, to soil screening, soil kneading, and shaping...... Teach them directly and one-stop.
Almost with this attitude of ignoring anything else, these hundreds of people under He Zilong directly made piles of the same salt and pottery after exposing many things and strengths that they didn't want to expose before.
Looking at the piles of mountains of salt and pottery, He Zilong thought that five catties of salt could please a daughter-in-law, two catties of salt could recruit a son-in-law, and the value of a person could be measured by salt. These piles of farts are not worth a lot of money in modern times, but they have become a huge wealth here.
It's really hard to convince modern people to say it!
If it weren't for the chicken-killing and egg-taking operation, to be honest, He Zilong would even have thought about secretly moving the salt mining area over there and cultivating it into his own tribe.
It's just that the place is not suitable for the establishment of a tribe, because it is windy on all sides, and the plains are just a strange place in the woods. The hillside is not high, and it is impossible to build the tribe on the hillside, so if you want to defend it, you must use large works to cut down and clear a large area of wood. Ponds are also dug to stock up on drinking water, and perimeter walls are needed to prevent wild beasts from attacking.
This amount of work is not a small tribe that can be done in a short time. As long as something happens casually in the middle, it will basically be either a group annihilation, or help others make wedding dresses. Therefore, forget it, He Zilong can only kill chickens and take eggs, get rich once, and then leave the rest alone.
However, He Zilong has a reason to believe that when the eldest prince ascends the throne, the red rain season will flash again. He will definitely take a large group of people to occupy it and cultivate it as he planned, after all, for the people of the primitive tribe, there is a direct natural large salt cave crystal, such a rich salt land, for the long-term locals living in the local area, this is completely worth a big vote!
-
When these were done, He Zilong welcomed the problem, that is, many cannon fodder tribes died and scattered, and some even walked out as if they were resigned to their fate, indicating neutrality. Whether it can flash the red rainy season a year later, people don't care, this is also a dead attitude.
There are also other tribes who have joined other tribes and are in the Secret Moon Period, so it's not good to dig into the corners.
"Patriarch, I have inquired, the tribal alliances that have recently attacked here have basically dispersed, and there is no climate anymore. This is also the reason why the eldest prince and their internal struggle for power, because the number of foreign enemies is small, and it is not a climate...... "The return of a few indigenous informants caused He Zilong to have a new idea.
Many tribes that were originally hostile were crippled or scattered, and the territory was no longer so firm because of the red rainy season. And a year's time, whether it is long or not, and whether it is short or not, maybe it can be done in another way?
It is said that there are also ways to survive without entering the Tree of Heaven. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so many years, there are still so many hostile tribes, maybe occupy the territory first, and take those forces that have been disabled, or the forces that have died as cannon fodder, as well as the neutral forces, rely on the expansion of the territory, and then let the people see the strength of this side clearly, and finally produce a merger effect.
