Volume 2 Playing with the Tribe Chapter 254 I Am Aragami
There is no god in the world, and creation plays tricks on people.
Ding Qi didn't know if it was right, but he had already begun to resent the feeling of nothingness. Therefore, he wants to participate in the big guys, and treat himself as a real primitive, although deep down he still sees himself as an outsider of the twenty-first century with a lot of knowledge.
In order to achieve this, he did not let others call him Aragami, at most he was called the leader. For some of the older people, he prefers them to call themselves Ding Qi or Ding. He wants to fit into everyone's lives, and he doesn't want to be a leader who is getting farther and farther away from everyone. In the long run, Tinch fears that he will be lost one day.
Get lost in the legends of Aragami.
Therefore, when he is fine, he always likes to pet the little cutie, treating it as a cat, a cat that can listen to his heart. Tell it about your past, what happened in your time, as a way to prove that you are still a person, a real person.
In fact, it is normal for Ding Qi to have this kind of thought, when your every move will be regarded as a miracle, you are not a god, and you will be regarded as a god. The power of the masses is strong, and the crowd is full of gold and destroys bones. A person who does not lose himself is a strong person at heart.
Seeing that everyone was almost discussed, Ding Qi signaled that the meeting would be disbanded, and the supervisors would carry out the relocation work under the coordination of Ben, and the bucks would coordinate in the center, divide the areas belonging to the Li tribe, and prepare various utensils to welcome the arrival of the Li tribe.
Afterwards, Ding Qi left Ben and several elders behind to continue to discuss another matter.
Ben showed a puzzled expression, wondering why his leader and master didn't let the doctors stay and participate in the following meeting.
Ding Qi pretended not to see it and motioned for everyone to sing tea.
Ding Qi did not allow the witches to participate, because he wanted to adjust the focus of the witches' work in disguise, or to weaken their position in the tribe. Tinch wanted the witch to focus only on the sacrificial and medical aspects, or even separate the ritual and medical treatment, so that each person only dedicated to his own sacrifice or medical treatment, or that there was only one healer in the tribe who was dedicated to the sacrifice, and the other healers were fully focused on medical treatment. After all, in the case of backward medical treatment in the primitive period, if more people want to survive, in addition to keeping everyone fed and clothed, less sickness and less injury is the direction of the tribe's efforts.
When the medical witch group was established before, it was clear that the carving was in charge of the sacrifice, the rhinoceros was in charge of medical treatment, and the deer was in charge of the overall responsibility. It wasn't obvious before, but now it's starting to show the power of the decision.
Theocracy, of course, was important in the primitive tribal period, but the power of the monarch or power was even more important. Although none of the tribes that have joined the current group question their decisions or orders, it does not mean that there will not be any in the future, and there will be old stubbornness that does not keep pace with the times.
Therefore, not allowing them to participate in some of the tribe's decisions is also a way to limit their rights. Ding Qi knew from the Blue Tiger Leader, the Buck Leader, and other tribal leaders that the higher the level and the long-standing tribe, the more the tribal doctor and witch determined the direction of the tribe's development.
But Ding Qi knew that this was nothing more than a witch doctor
They use their "access to God" to confuse the ignorant people in their tribes as a means of gaining political capital for their own personal gain.
Of course, this does not exclude some people who think about the tribe, and what I just said can only be a kind of germination, but from the fact that the life expectancy of witches is much higher than the average life expectancy of the tribesmen, it can be understood that they are a privileged class that uses theocracy to fool the interests of the people.
In fact, from the perspective of human nature, it is nothing more than the word "survival", they just want to survive better and live longer.
Ding Qi could not change the traditions of the entire primitive society that had been passed down for many years, but he was able to follow the tribal groups he controlled as he wished.
Some will ask why Tinch can? Ding Qi will definitely give the other party a very pretentious statement: Because I am Aragami!
There can only be one voice in a tribe, and in order to prevent problems before they happen, and in order to avoid opposition in the future, Tinch has to stifle this risk in the cradle and let the tribesmen adapt to the political environment of only one voice. It's hard to say what will happen in the future, but Ding Qi at least has to ensure that the tribal forces he has built up cannot be affected by external factors, especially in the early stage of the great development of the tribe.
Ding Qi also has to take the time to explain these truths to Ben, so that he can understand and understand this truth.
After drinking the tea, Ding Qi coughed lightly, opened his mouth and said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have just discussed the preparations we have made after the integration of the Li tribe into us, and at that time, the establishment of the tribal city will also be announced to the world, and when the celebration of the Ding tribal city is over, those tribes who have come to help will also leave. The news of the tribe's establishment of the first city in the Great Wilderness will surely spread to more tribes through the mouths of the tribes. ”
Ding Qi said this, Ben, Buck, Black Bull and Gu Da showed excited expressions on the faces of the four people present, they didn't know the four words that have been passed down through the ages, but they knew that this matter would definitely be passed on by the people in the Great Wilderness for a long, long time. As the builders of this city, they have reason to be proud.
"Therefore, including the Servant tribe and the Qiang tribe who came to help before, and the five tribes of Huangsha, Youzhu, Baishui, Baize, and Honghu among the seven tribes who came to help in the later period, we must give them the most sincere gratitude, without their joining, our tribe's city would not have been established so quickly. Therefore, the three elders also prepared suitable gifts for them, including the fishing nets that had been promised to them. As for the technique of weaving fishing nets, I suggest it as a surprise to them, and they must be very happy. ”
After Ding Qi last talked to the Bai Shui, Bai Ze and the Red Lake tribes, he planned to teach them the technique of weaving fishing nets, which could be regarded as a chance to give them a chance to make a living and expand the influence of the tribe, so that more people could survive.
When a technology that has the potential to bring about destruction is taught in its entirety, then there is not much risk involved. As for whether it will bring danger to his tribe, Ding Qi is really not afraid of them, as long as the real technology is in his own hands, he is not afraid.
In fact, in the final analysis, the base of human beings was too small in the primitive society. Ding Qi is still a little soft-hearted!
"As for the other things that promised them, even related technologies, yes
Selectively teach them, such as the craft of making pottery, which can teach them partially. ”
Seeing that Ben wanted to speak to stop himself, Ding Qi stretched out his hand and said with a smile:
"Don't stop me, I've figured it out. What do you call me? Aragami, what is the legendary Aragami here for? So that the people of all tribes can be fed and clothed, and protected from all kinds of beasts. These technologies can allow more people to survive in the wilderness, so why don't we do it? Even the bronze axes we gave away, so why can't we keep sending them? As long as they are not hostile to our tribe and can walk with us, we can give them what they want. ”
Ding Qi paused, feeling that it was a little too much, and it was better to be more restrained.
"Of course, we don't do those practices that can bring backlash to the tribe. For example, the production method of bronze weapons, the production method and finished product of longbow and feather arrow, which is more accurate and has a longer range, should still be in your own hands and cannot be leaked. ”
The diffusion of science and technology, this is a matter of time, the improvement of science and technology, can improve productivity, productivity is increased before surplus value appears, only when surplus value is produced will there be a rudimentary form of commerce.
The current exchange is only a small-scale demand-oriented bartering social activity, and it is only a precursor activity of the rudimentary form of commerce.
In addition to the support of science and technology, commercial activities have played a pivotal role in the great development of mankind.
Of course, you have to eat the meal one bite at a time, and you can't rush it. And these tribes that are currently in contact with can learn what the Ding tribe practiced in the past and spread it to other tribes in the Great Wilderness. For example, the unification of length units, weight units, and the understanding and use of some Chinese characters have spread among various tribes. Not to mention the sinking kiln style and the principle of brick burning, the tribes involved in the process have already learned.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Ding Qi had no intention of passing on the skills that the tribe relied on to survive.
In fact, the tribe has already begun to protect the tribe's key technologies, such as making pottery, mining, smelting, making bronze alloys, building weapons, etc., and there are special personnel responsible for each link, and they are not allowed to have too much contact. These people are working in special areas, and the fighters patrolling around them are also to prevent the presence of escapees among them.
It is still necessary to persist in the monopoly of key technologies!
Seeing that everyone understood and accepted their statement, Ding Qi added again:
"As mentioned earlier, there are options, and these techniques can be taught separately or according to the characteristics of the tribe. You can also ask their opinions, but before teaching, you must report to Ben to know, and it is up to me to decide. ”
The meeting was over, and they went to their own jobs under the leadership of Ben. Tinch, on the other hand, with his penny hat on his head, straw sandals on his feet, and a fishing rod he had just made yesterday, went down the slope towards the lake, where the warriors of the tribe were fishing.
Due to his various hunting skills, he can use bamboo baskets and traps to catch prey and catch fish, so Ding Qi has never used the hook and line in the equipment list to catch fish. This has to be said to be a kind of regret that makes people feel happy.
