I set out at the end of the second month of spring, and when I returned, it was already early summer.

The clansmen at the docks of Yuancheng saw a fleet of ships coming from the south, and they knew that it was the return of the king, and a gong was sounded to announce the return of the king to the people of Yuancheng.

Hearing the sound of the gong, Xiaohua Xiaoyue knew that it was their husband who had returned, and the sisters ran to the dock with their two-and-a-half-year-old child in their arms.

The two sisters were joined by other members of the source city, adults and children, running towards the docks.

"King! King! King! ”

Earth-shattering shouts rang out from the docks.

Su Yan stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the clansmen gathered on the dock, and also saw the two sisters holding their children in front of the crowd.

"This is my tribe, my people, and my family."

"We're back!"

"King! King! King! ”

After more than a month of separation, Su Yan was not in a hurry to keep warm with the two sisters, the cattle in the cabin needed to be solved first, although no cattle died during the fleet voyage, but several cows were sick.

After the matter of the cow was dealt with, Su Yan returned home, and the family sat together and listened to Su Yan tell about the things on this trip, which can be regarded as the way Su Yan and the two sisters cultivated their relationship.

After a day's rest, the day after he returned, Su Yan began to deal with the things he had accumulated, the most important of which was the matter of this expedition to the Niu tribe.

To win the war, it is necessary to hold a celebration party, and the clansmen who participated in this campaign against the Niu tribe must participate, and the patriarchs of the various clans of the Dragon tribe must also participate.

The rewards are divided into three classes: the first prize, three women, the patriarch, the clansmen who performed well in the war, and the clansmen who were seriously injured can receive the first prize; The second prize is awarded to two women, the captain and deputy captain, the chief and deputy commanders, clansmen who performed well in the war, and clansmen who were moderately injured can receive the second prize; The rest of the clansmen will receive the third prize, one woman.

This time, the Dragon Tribe Niu Tribe obtained a total of 1,272 women in the battle, minus the 246 women of the Original Blood Tiger Tribe, and the remaining 1,000 and 26 women can be used as rewards for the clansmen.

There are less than 500 clansmen participating in the battle this time, and there are two women left on average for each person, and according to Su Yan's reward method, there will be about 400 people left in the end, and the remaining 400 women will be rewarded to other meritorious clansmen in the tribe as rewards.

Even if the patriarch who did not participate in the war could take three women each, but the patriarchs had enough women, and the dragon tribe did not have the rank of servant, it was expected that the patriarchs would give up the choice and give the women to other clansmen.

Before this war, the dragon tribe had a total of 2,016 adult male clansmen, 3,556 adult female clansmen, and the patriarchs and other high-armed clansmen had multiple spouses, so that almost half of the adult male clansmen had only one spouse, and almost every year the adult clansmen formed a family of one man and one woman.

A tribe with a population of several thousand or even tens of thousands, if it does not fight against foreign countries and only develops naturally, the number of men and women will gradually approach, except for men with high status and high military force, the rest of the men will have only one spouse, not only in primitive times, but also in ancient and modern times.

Su Yan did not forget the six clansmen who died in this war.

In this era, once an adult male clansman dies, his family will disappear, and his spouse will take his children to find or be found by other men to rely on, and even the children will have to call other men as their fathers, and their own biological father will slowly forget, and so will the families of these six clansmen who died in battle.

But Su Yan will make a change.

The first step is to build the Hall of Heroic Souls next to the temple, and the names and death experiences of all the people who died for the tribe will be engraved on a large stone tablet, which will be placed in the Hall of Heroic Souls to be worshipped.

The second step, the biological father dies, the child can choose to follow the mother into a new family, or choose to live with the grandparents, if follow the mother into a new family, there is a stepfather, but will not change their own surname, but if they do not want to, they can apply to change the stepfather's surname, do not apply, then keep the original surname.

Two changes, when a person dies, his traces will no longer be completely "erased", his name and deeds will be known to future generations, and his surname and bloodline will continue to be "passed on".

After these things, there is also the matter of cows, the number of cattle is still a little small, eighty-seven big cows, forty-five small calves, only big cattle can pull the plough and plough the fields, the most suitable is that every family in the dragon tribe can have a big cow, I don't know how long it will take to achieve this goal.

Need to rely on the herd itself to develop and expand, but also need to find new herds, the development speed of the dragon tribe is faster than the cattle tribe, if you do not find a new herd, the development speed of the small herd of cattle in the dragon tribe is far from keeping up with the development speed of the cattle tribe.

The ox already has it, and there is still a bull power plow, and a cow power plow has been built before, but at that time the dragon tribe needed a manpower plow, and the ox power plow only built one and gave up, and now it is necessary to recreate a suitable ox power plow, although the number of cattle is small, it can also allow a small number of people to reduce physical consumption when plowing the fields.

Su Yan's plan for the rest time of the Niu tribe should also be perfected and prepared for implementation.

There are three cities of the dragon tribe, each city has two hunting teams, two men's and two women's reserves, two teams, and each team is composed of three hunting teams, three reserves, three men's and three women's, with a number of more than 410 people.

One team goes out with the fleet to fight, while the other team stays at home to rest, during which they can train, hunt, and other matters.

By the way, there is also the matter of building the fourth city, the fourth city is in charge of Zhi, and the construction area of the fourth city is inspected in the summer, mainly the original blood tiger tribe residence on the south bank of the Yellow River, if it does not meet the requirements, you can choose other areas, but the distance is not too far, and it cannot be far away from the bamboo city for more than a day.

……

After the end of the conquest of the Niu tribe, the total population of the dragon tribe increased again, from 15,000 to more than 17,700, and the number of slaves also increased from 146 to nearly 700, but there were less than 200 adults among the slaves, and minors accounted for the majority.

The labor efficiency of juvenile slaves is much worse than that of adult slaves, and three to five juvenile slaves are equivalent to one adult slave.

With the addition of a large number of slaves, the copper mining area no longer needs the dragon tribesmen to mine, and the mining work is completely handed over to the slaves, leaving only some clansmen to guard the slaves to prevent the slaves from escaping or rioting. (https:)
