"Knock knock!"

The soldiers brought a huge tree and intercepted a section about three meters long, the diameter of the trunk is close to one meter, not that the bigger the tree, the better, it depends on whether it is suitable, and the selection of wood, or it is not suitable for insects to rot, and it will not deform and crack after exposure to the sun.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of trees during this period, and if they are damaged, they can be found again. Now he is going to cut the middle of the tree into a circle, first flatten the two sides, as far as possible, and then make a hole more than 30 centimeters wide from above, to the left and right, which is a horizontal opening, so that it is easy to put his hand in, and then he will put in the camellia cake.

After the opening is opened, there is only a slow chisel inside, and it is a big project to chisel with sharp flint, which can not be done in a short time.

The final product looks a bit like an hourglass frame, and more figuratively looks like a coffin. Camellia fruit has to be dried for about half a month, so there is no hurry, slow work and meticulous work, and strive for a success.

If you want to extract the oil, you still need some assistance to finish, you have to crush the camellia fruit, fortunately he had the foresight to grind the stone in the rock tribe and carry it over when he migrated. Now even the stone platform has been built.

He spent an afternoon on the stone mill through the accumulation of the early stage, so that as long as the wooden handle was pushed around, the items placed on the stone platform could be crushed, which was the kind of round stone mill pulled by the donkey in later generations, of course, manpower can also be replaced, and it can be replaced by a water wheel.

It's just that building a waterwheel is more troublesome, he probably understands the principle, but it's too complicated, although his mathematics, physics and chemistry are okay, but he is not a craftsman, even if he wants to change careers, it takes time and experience to accumulate.

As soon as the stone mill was finished, the sacrifice in the square over there was about to begin, except for some soldiers who guarded the gate of the tribe and guarded and trained, the rest of the people gathered in the square to participate in the solemn and sacred sacrifice ceremony.

A huge fire was lit, the head of the Titan Bird was used as a sacrifice, and there were also things that were considered precious, such as dog head gold, animal bones, ivory, deer antlers, and so on, and everyone knelt on the ground to worship the fire, and the elders prayed to the gods for a long time.

"God, today our seven tribal alliances are united, please continue to protect us, shelter the bear......"

"God, please shelter the bear......"

Then everyone bathed in the holy water, sang and danced around the fire, and it was very lively.

Su Yang thought that the sacrifice was almost here, and while there was still some time, he still wanted to continue to squeeze the oil, but who knew that something unexpected happened.

Matsu loudly announced that all the clansmen who had reached the age of thirteen would elect the Great Elder of the Bear Tribe, which means the leader and chieftain.

This happened too suddenly, didn't the old man say that he was talking about waiting for the new tribe to be built? And when the time comes, there will be no election at all, it will be directly decided, at most, the elders themselves will vote, and now they will have to vote from 500, no, not so much, but at least more than 300 people will be elected.

"No, there's too much variable." Su Yang was a little anxious, he hadn't had time to string votes yet, this kind of thing had to be active, basically whoever was elected was just going through a process, if something went wrong in the election process, it meant that the representative had lost control.

Well, this actually means two things, if it is already the acting chief, then the election must not be a problem, and tandem voting is necessary; But if there is a fair election from several candidates, then there can be no moths, and cross-voting is a violation of the rules.

shook his head, what kind of election law does he care now, this is the primitive period, is it good or not, but now suddenly talking about elections, isn't it chaotic?

Who will be chosen, is it Matsu, Jiang Li, Ji Li, or Elder Sky Wolf? Who gets the most votes? If we divide electors into 10, 20, and 30 generations, who is the most popular among all age groups? Who has the lowest number of votes and will be eliminated first?

Drunk, or back to reality, Matsu said again: "I and the ten elders each put a clay pot in front of each of them, you take a camellia fruit, whoever you want to choose, put the camellia fruit into the elder's clay pot, whoever has the most camellia fruits, who is the great elder." ”

"That's how you chose?" Su Yang never expected Matsu to be so smart, but it also makes sense, for example, the tribe is now eighteen sheep, and primitive people can't count, so they compare to tying eighteen rattan knots, or putting eighteen small stones into a bamboo tube for sheep.

For every small stone that is touched, a sheep is counted, and as long as the stone matches the sheep, it proves that there is no problem with the number.

But this is still too troublesome, Su Yang is ready to find time to teach everyone to count, not too much, just go to the hundreds, I hope some people can learn it.

At this moment, the elders were already seated, even Xiao Xia was there, and each of the eleven elders had a clay pot in front of him. The old man asked Su Yang to distribute camellia fruits, and he had no choice but to comply.

However, Su Yang thought evilly in his heart, if he would also sit there and put a clay pot in front of him, maybe it would be possible to steal a leader to be a leader, as he said before, break the rules, as long as he is elected.

Not to mention, there is really room for manipulation, of course he is not an elder, so if he is not a candidate, he is not qualified, but he has the opportunity to manipulate any one of the elders to be elected, do you want to help Xiao Xia take the position?

The savages alone have about seventy votes, and he is confident that he can convince the Chao tribe and the Mang tribe that there are about fifty people here, and the rest of the warrior team will not have a problem getting fifty people. Where are honest people and Shanrun, it's not a problem to get twenty people, I rely on it, there are almost two hundred votes in this way, and the victory is locked in advance.

But he didn't do anything, and since Matsu is confident of being elected, let the first national election of the primitive tribe be held in a fair and just manner.

After the camellia fruit was divided, he was about to step aside, silently counting the number of votes of the elders in his heart, anyway, he was not under the age of thirteen and was not qualified to vote, but Matsu suddenly said: "Su, my good grandson, you come to vote first, demonstrate, your camellia fruit is not counted." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes looked at him, and this situation made Su Yang know that he was cheated again, so he said, how dare Matsu play so big, it turned out that he had already thought of countermeasures, I am afraid that before the migration, Matsu thought of the current situation.

"Ding Dong!" Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he put the camellia fruit into the clay pot of Matsu.

"Good boy." The old man patted him approvingly.

The next situation is basically no variable, first of all, the hunting team, the honest people and Shanrun they all voted for Matsu, of course the warriors of the rock also voted, and even the Pabuk, who has always been dissatisfied with Matsu, also voted, followed the chaotic tribe, and the Mang tribe voted for Matsu one after another, although not all, but it was not bad. In the end, Xia Bu took the lead, and the savages all voted for Xiao Xia, and it was only seventy votes.

The only variable, even if the Sky Wolf Tribe wants to turn against the water, it can't shake the final outcome because of the lack of numbers.

The clay pot was poured out, and there was no need to count them, and at a glance, he knew that Matsu had the most camellia fruits, and there was no doubt that he was elected as the Great Elder, but Su Yang, the only grandson of the current lineage, was a little depressed.

But at the same time, he has also proved his prestige, to the extent that he can influence the outcome of the election, this time it is Matsu, and who will be next time depends on whether he agrees or not. (To be continued.) )
