Chapter 309: The lesser of two evils

Then, Chu Yun hurriedly said, "Are you crazy? With so many children, it's good to treat them as captives, and they don't need much food. If we treat them as people, will we be able to afford our food? ”

Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "You see, you yourself have expressed your objections, how can I tell the clansmen?"

Chu Yun was silent for a while, and then said, "Then tell me your reasons!" ”

Ye Feng said solemnly: "First, don't look at these children are still young and can't do anything, but if they grow up, it will be a huge amount of labor, and for primitive people, fifteen or sixteen years old is adulthood, so it won't take a few years." ”

"Second, the children's learning ability is very strong, and the knowledge we impart, they can learn quickly, and when they grow up, as the main population of our tribe, they will definitely be able to improve the knowledge level of our tribe."

“……”

Ye Feng then listed his thoughts one by one and explained them in detail, which finally made Chu Yun start to support Ye Feng's idea.

Seeing that he finally got a supporter, Ye Feng was naturally very happy, so he hurriedly said, We will hold a tribal meeting now. Let them support us too! ”

Chu Yun nodded and said, "Okay, I won't help you talk to you when the time comes!" ”

……

In the meeting hall of the tribe, people crowded the entire branch cave next to each other, and there was a lot of discussion, noisy, so lively!

This tribal meeting, whether it was the leaders of the various groups, the leaders of the grassroots and some outstanding tribesmen.

In order to achieve the goal of supporting everyone when he goes out, Ye Feng can be said to have made up his mind and decided to use his three-inch incorruptible tongue to fight the Confucianism, and make his thoughts public, so that they can also support him.

Listening to the noisy sound below, Ye Feng sat in the first place, knocked his fingers on the table, and made a banging sound.

Only then did everyone turn their attention to Ye Feng's body. They were silent, because they knew that according to the previous process, Ye Feng was going to preach about him next.

Ye Feng said: "We, the Xingyue Tribe, are a kind and righteous tribe. There will be no indiscriminate killing, no homicide, and no blind conviction of innocent people! ”。

Everyone was stunned at first, and was confused by Ye Feng's words.

Afterwards, Ye Fengcai said: "So, every time I see these captive children, I think, since our tribe is a righteous tribe, shouldn't our tribe adopt them and make them members of our tribe?" ”

The reason why Ye Feng said this just now was actually that in order to achieve his goal, he first praised the Xingyue tribe to the top of the rank, and when he was waiting for him to be proud, he threw out his purpose.

Such an effect makes the adoption of those children an obligatory duty for the Xingyue tribe to fight on the moral high ground. To put it mildly, Ye Feng put them on the chariot of morality, and he couldn't get off even if he wanted to.

Of course, this doesn't help.

Primitive people don't do anything moral with you, in their eyes, they only think about the allocation of resources.

As soon as Ye Feng's words fell, a person immediately stood up.

This time it was not Liu Junting who was the first to stand up, this guy was still drowsy, his head was still little by little, and he didn't know what kind of cow this guy stole last night.

This person is the person appointed by Ye Feng to be in charge of the treasury, named Hans.

Hans's face was flushed, and he was so anxious that he danced and said, "Ye Feng, this is absolutely not good!" Our tribe's food could have just survived this winter, and the sudden addition of these hundreds of captives would have made our treasury urgent, but fortunately, they didn't need much good food, and they could barely survive the winter. ”

"But the more these children join our tribe, the more they are our people. For the people, they must eat the same thing as us. By then, we'll have enough food...... But it's ......."

At this point, he couldn't go on.

Everyone originally heard Ye Feng's words, but they hadn't reacted yet, but when they heard Hans's words, they all remembered the consequences of doing so, and hurriedly expressed their opposing opinions.

The leader of the cooking team stood up and said, "Ye Feng, our group gets up early every day and is greedy for darkness, just so that we can cook meals for the clansmen in advance, and now there are so many children, do you still let us rest?" ”

"Yes! When the time comes, there will be a shortage of food, and our hunting team will have to hunt in the cold weather, and there will be no prey in the cold weather, you say...... Isn't this sincere to tire us up? ”

Liu Junting didn't know when he woke up, and he also opened his mouth to maintain an opposing opinion.

Everyone was gossiping and noisy, only Taye clasped his hands in front of his chest and was silent.

Although he had long expected these clansmen to react like this, Ye Feng was still annoyed, and couldn't help but shout secretly in his heart: "Dictatorship, dictatorship, especially must be dictatorial!" ”

thought so in his heart, but he still patiently analyzed the benefits of taking in these children carefully and carefully for everyone.

The people were silent, but judging by their looks, they were still fluctuating in opposition.

Seeing the appearance of the clansmen, Ye Feng stabbed Chu Yun with his right elbow and said, "Say something!" ”

Chu Yun coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, listen to what I say!" ”

"I think what Ye Feng said is right. First, our tribe is in a period of great development, and we need manpower everywhere, and relying on our own way of giving birth to children, there is no more than ten decades, don't want to raise the population. ”

"Second. People can't just see what is in front of them, but they also have to see the benefits in the distance, and the benefits in the distance Ye Feng also told you just now, so I won't talk nonsense here. ”

"That's all for my opinions, think about it!"

Everyone fell into deep thought, and after thinking about it for a long time, they were still undecided, and they all looked at the chief Taba.

As the chieftain, Duoye has the most important right to speak in the tribe, except for Ye Feng and Wu, so his attitude determines the final destination of Ye Feng's idea.

Ye Feng also looked at Duoye, and couldn't help but start to get nervous in his heart, after all, no one wanted their opinions to be vetoed.

Duoye slowly picked up a clay cup from the table, drank a mouthful of water from the cup, and then said: "The lesser of two evils, I support Ye Feng!" ”

"Good!"

Ye Feng was excited, and was amazed by Duoye's sentence "the lesser of two evils".

Taba claims to be the best idiom in the tribe, and it really lives up to this title.
