Xuanyuan immediately let go of his hand like an electric shock, and then said with a smile: "You and your Chu Mingshen are so interesting. I decided that in the future, our tribe will be called Chu Ming!hahaha!"

Chapter XXIV Reform

Although the Chu Ming tribe is more advanced than other tribes in terms of civilization, in the eyes of modern people, Chu Ming is too backward. The simplest point is that the calculation method of the Chuming tribe is still to use one horizontal line to represent one thing, and ten horizontal lines to represent ten things. If it's more than a hundred, it doesn't count. Instead, replace it with "multi-person".

It's definitely not going to work. Chu Ming decided to let Lan teach counting and simple calculation methods. This seemingly simple thing made Chu Ming's head bigger and bigger. For primitive people who have never been exposed to mathematics, learning mathematics is as difficult as learning mathematics for small children, because their abstract thinking skills are low and cannot be understood. The meaning of numbers.

Lan is smart, but it took Zhu Ming nearly a week for Lan to go from exposure to math. This is Zhu Ming's time for a week, and it has been almost two months since he switched to the blue world!

Once tested, blue addition and subtraction up to 100 can be done accurately.

Very good, after learning Lan, you can replace Chu Ming to impart knowledge to the people.

Lan's first and second students are Xiao Yue and Stone. As a result, the acceptance rate of these two children was too fast, and it only took a month to learn! It was a shame to give Lan a discount, but Chu Ming was very happy. The rapid progress of the child means that the future progress of the Chuming tribe will also be very fast.

Next came the patriarch and some young people from the tribe. It doesn't matter if the older ones don't learn, but the young people are the new force of the tribe and must learn. So Lan proposed to Xuanyuan to organize everyone to learn mathematics, but Xuanyuan thought that these things were useless for the development of the tribe, and it was better to train more soldiers to be effective.

In the face of Xuanyuan's ridicule, Lan asked, "It is true that the more soldiers, the better it is for our tribe, but if someone asks how many soldiers and patriarchs there are in our tribe, how do you answer? You don't even know how many soldiers there are in your tribe, how can you effectively command them to fight?"

Regulus's laughter gradually stopped, and he frowned and fell into deep thought. He was also a quick thinker, and when he thought about it, he immediately understood the importance of mathematics. In life, learning mathematics is a very important skill, so he immediately changed his mind: "The high priest is right! You must learn mathematics!" He looked at Lan and smiled: "Then I am the first student of the high priest!"

"I'm sorry, you didn't. The blue mouth twitched slightly, revealing a charming smile, and Xiao Yue and Shi were both. "Since playing the role of High Priest Blue, she has stopped hunting, but has changed. Wear a neat silkworm robe with tail feathers on your head, which symbolize the high priest, and a shell necklace and beautiful colored stones around your neck. Her long black hair hangs down her shoulders and her beautiful eyes have a bright shine that makes you feel good when you see them.

Xuanyuan straightened his eyes, and Lan saw that he was out of shape, so he lowered his head and hurriedly retreated.

It takes about three months for young people to learn math like blue. Although the whole process of learning mathematics took about half a year to teach most people in the tribe, Zhu Ming felt that it was very worthwhile. Although it will take half a year to fully spread among the tribe, it is a good start.

After the establishment of the Math Society, Lan sent a man named "Mo" to count the relevant data of the tribe. A week later, the data came out, and Lan invited Xuanyuan to take a look.

"47 houses, 7 plots of farmland, 382 people, 122 soldiers, 244 men, 138 women, 102 children aged 50, 49 children under 7 years old......"

For the first time, Regulus gained a comprehensive understanding of his tribe. He pondered for a long time and said, "There are too many men and too few women in our tribe. In this way, not many children were born, and the old man died. After that, our population will become smaller and smaller, and the tribes will gradually decay... That's not going to work!"

He turned his gaze to Lan, "High Priestess, I plan to attack the other tribes and snatch their women in order to expand the number of women in our tribe. What do you think?" Lan already had an answer in her heart, but she was not in a hurry to say it, it was a very wise answer: "For such a big matter as sending troops abroad, I must ask Chu Ming for instructions. ”

This is the priest's duty, and there is nothing wrong with it, so Regulus immediately agreed.

"Xuanyuan wants to use soldiers?" Chu Ming frowned, from many clues, he could conclude that this Xuanyuan was the famous Yellow Emperor in history! However, whether Lan's world and his own world had the same history, Chu Ming was not sure. If they were the same, the Yellow Emperor would definitely see the battle between Yanquan and Emperor Yan in the future.

"Liezi Yellow Emperor" said: "The Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor fought in the wilderness of Banquan, with bears, scorpions, wolves, leopards, tigers, and tigers taking the lead, and eagles, eagles, eagles, and kites as flags. This shows that the Yellow Emperor is definitely not a person. Fighting, but with the Allies, more than one. Since it is an alliance, it is not a hostile relationship. If Xuanyuan used foreign troops now, the notoriety of the Chu Ming tribe would spread, and other tribes would not ally with him, and the Yellow Emperor would not have the strength to compete with Emperor Yan.

Then the answer is "No!"

Lan also said: "I also think that it is not good to use troops externally, and we can't bully the weak, because now the Chuming tribe is stronger than other tribes." Moreover, once these weak tribes are united, we will be in a very difficult situation. ”

Chu Ming nodded and said, "Lan's analysis is correct. You go back and tell Xuanyuan not to send troops. If he wants to increase the population, he will marry other tribal alliances, impress each other with sincerity, and slowly integrate into each other and let other tribes

s gladly joined. The Chuming tribe is here. Nonenwei and Shi Cai are a perfect strategy, blindly using force, and the only one who suffers in the end is himself. ”

Lanjiang Chuming's words answered Xuanyuan truthfully, and Xuanyuan extinguished the idea of starting a war. Lan took the opportunity to give a speech and asked Xuanyuan to pay attention to issues such as farming and water conservancy, as well as medical care and children's education.

"The cultivated land of our tribe is too small, the yield of rice and grain is too low, and there is not much food on a piece of land. Even the current population is not able to feed itself. Sometimes, we need to send people to hunt to fill this gap. More and more food is definitely not enough. If you continue like this, it will never work. You have to improve the crops. ”

"In order to increase crop yields, water conservancy cannot keep up. Zhu Mingtian said that the reason for our low millet yield now is a big problem, because there is too little water, and a lot of water is needed to make the plants grow better. , so the water conservancy project must also be done!"

"Medical issues are also imminent. There are no doctors and no medicine in the tribe. The disease used to rely on the witchcraft of the high priest, but it definitely didn't work. The God of Chu Ming wants us to collect enough herbs as soon as possible. Teach us the way to cure diseases, so that the mortality rate of our tribe will be reduced, and the population will naturally increase. ”

"There is also the issue of education......

"Wait a minute!" Xuanyuan gave Lan a headache, he really couldn't understand what she was saying, he waved his hand: "These things will be left to you in the future, you don't have to report to me, I believe in you and your Chu Mingshen!"

Chapter 25: Tribal Gatherings

Chu Ming moved the water source to the door of the tribe, and all that remained was to build a few canals to divert the water to the farmland. Chu Ming described to Lan the appearance of the canal and the general construction methods. He couldn't put the construction drawings of the canal in a book for Lan to see. Even if he could accept it, it was estimated that Lan would not be able to understand such professional drawings.

According to Chu Ming's description, Lan mobilized dozens of people to repair the ditch, but when Chu Ming woke up the next day, he just shook his head. Where are the ditches, just a few half-deep ditches! The soil area is too small, and the canals on both sides are too short. Once the volume of water exceeds the capacity of the canal, it is likely to cause flooding.

Chu Ming also thought about doing it himself, but his hands were too big, and it was no problem to dig the river. It's really hard to dig a waterway that only takes up a small part of the river. Moreover, he is not very productive. He needs Ran to be with him. After a night he could only dig one. Now the tribe needs a dozen canals, at least a dozen days. If you include the breaks, it will take at least a year, which is not cost-effective.

If only he could make Ran understand his intentions. Chu Ming looked at the drawings of the ditch and thought sadly.

At this moment, the blue corpse that was directing the people to dig a trench suddenly shook. Her eyes were straight ahead, and she rubbed her forehead for a long time, as if she had woken up from a dream.

"Stop, everyone!" Lan shouted, waving his hand, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at her. "There is a problem with our project, I thought about it......" Lan fell into a state of deep thought, and then said: "Fill more soil on the earthwork, the ditch needs at least one person to dig deeper!

Chu Ming looked at Lan in surprise, why did she know what she was thinking? This is also a kind of divine power? This person can

Do you specify that you know what you have in mind? After checking with the local area network, it is.

Haha, it's more convenient to communicate with Lan now! As soon as an idea passed, he didn't even say a word.

But this kind of divine power seems to be only for absolutely loyal believers like Ran and Xiaoyue, but not for ordinary people like Shi and Heyuan.

In the process of repairing the ditch, Chu Ming was not idle. He asked Xiaoyue and Stone to look for "rice" plants around the tribe. Chu Ming's specific face had already been passed to Xiao Yue's mind. The little girl could tell at a glance whether it was the plant that Chu Ming was looking for.

There is no "rice" in this era, Chu Ming doesn't know, but he still hopes to do it, because once the "rice" is really available, the food of the tribe will be more abundant, and he will tell Lan the cultivation method of "hybrid rice", and then improve this wild rice a little, and no one will be hungry in the future.

This is a good idea, but he has never found anything like "rice", which makes Chu Ming a little disappointed.

All kinds of medicinal herbs were collected by Shi Mu and the women of the tribe, and Chu Ming screened them one by one, and all the poisonous and useless were screened out. The remaining species are classified as blues, used to paint registers and tell the tribe what kind of diseases can be cured by growing herbs?

With the child's education and catching up little by little, Lan chose a few smart young people to be the children's teachers to teach the children mathematics and other knowledge. Chu Ming originally wanted to teach them the text, but after thinking about it, he gave up, thinking that this kind of text was a bit humane.

It is created by accumulation, and the reason why mathematics can be taught is because the people in the tribe already have the concept of numbers, and there is no difficulty in teaching, and there will be no "sequelae", but the text is different. If you give them all at once, they will lose this valuable opportunity to learn and accumulate.

However, in a scene between Xiao Yue and the stone, Chu Ming found that they had painted "graffiti" on the stone. It is a mural with very simple lines. It was a mural painted in the house. Chu Ming suddenly became excited, isn't this the most primitive hieroglyphic "home"?

Chu Ming was excited, and encouraged Xiao Yue and Shi to paint more murals, allowing them to give full play to their imagination and create various hieroglyphs. This plays a very important role in the future development of mankind. I didn't expect these two children to be the inventors of the first human hieroglyphs!

From winter to spring, the year passed quickly, and it was time for the tribes to trade with each other and get married. This was the first time that the new patriarch and new high priest of Xuanyuan Lan had attended such a large gathering. Regulus didn't care. He went to tell the other tribes. The Bear Tribe was renamed the Chuming Tribe. Become the new patriarch of the tribe. Lan was a little uneasy. She was the main leader of this tribal rally. She must be responsible for all matters that require her personal involvement, such as transactions, alliances, marriages, etc.

Luckily, that day happened to be the day when Zhu Ming had just woken up, so Zhu Ming would be with Lan, which made Lan feel much better.

The meeting took place in a valley not far from the Chuming tribe. Xuanyuan and Lan led a team of more than 100 people to the venue. The team consists mainly of young men and women. Their main purpose this time was to have heterosexual mating with other tribes, to impregnate women from other tribes, and to impregnate women from other tribes. Children of tribal boys.

The prohibition of intermarriage within the tribe is already an unspoken rule of the original tribe, and no one will violate it.

Although monogamy is practiced now, if both opponents like each other, they can live together, but the woman must live in the tribe of men and be a member of the tribe of men. Of course, if you don't agree, you can also be a "one-night stand" couple.

Chu Ming's tribal trade has a lot of things, and they are all very good things. Other tribes do not. This was also carefully prepared by Chu Ming Ranglan. Not for trade, but to attract the opposite sex to settle in this tribe. Adequate and tasty food and a good and stable living environment are indispensable conditions, which are more cost-effective than war.

Sure enough, when the other tribes saw the rice cakes, exquisite silkworm clothes and other foods brought by the Chuming tribe, they all showed envious expressions. Not only that, but the people of the Chuming tribe knew a lot of knowledge. They would count the flowers on the girl's head, and then there would be some petals. They know what herbs are poisonous and what can cure diseases.
