Many people trembled at the possible punishment of Ji Xia when she returned to Xia City in the future, but then a voice bewitched them and disrupted all their sanity. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ji Xia said that the city is the people of the country, and he was elected by everyone. Isn't it the common will of everyone now? Just like the rules, aren't they all agreed upon by everyone? Let's discuss, since the era of the clan, it has been the biggest rule, and we are abiding by the biggest rule. ”

"Besides, those people did it first, is our clan going to be bullied by them?"

Who made the first move, no one knows. But there is one point, those people in the council who first created a momentum and said that they would confiscate the land, property, and personal confiscation of the people of Xinxia City, and since you are unwilling to be slaves, naturally don't blame us for arresting you.

The incitement of this kind of rhetoric needs to be matched accordingly, and when the land and cattle of the people of the new Xia City become the property of the old Xia city people, these words become convincing, and they keep looking for reasons to justify their actions.

This kind of chaos would have been unthinkable two months ago, and the clan had no rights to deal with the disputes with their own siku.

Those who dared to stir up clan conflicts against the rules of the city represented by the Sikou were punishable by heavy punishments, and after a few people were exiled, those who tried to restore the clan council were honest for a long time.

Xia Cheng moved faster than other cities, so power was more concentrated, and the state replaced the primitive clans to bring more than 10,000 people together to form a new group based on reality, but once the power vacuum would appear extreme chaos.

For a moment, Mu Ma even fantasized that it was best for Ji Xia not to come back, but it was just a moment, in his opinion, it was always good for Ji Xia to come back and accept everyone's opinions, and everyone was still convinced of a real leader.

Clans, cities, and rivers...... What are imaginary communities? Which ones are real?

These questions are sometimes remembered, but they are quickly destroyed by the sick, deformed carnival of emptiness and uneasiness that comes to mind.

If everything remains the same, Xia Cheng will still operate, but the people responsible for the implementation of the rules have changed, and Xia Cheng will still be there, just as Xia Cheng will still be Xia Cheng after a hundred years after these people are dead.

But if everything must change, everything is the same as when Jian Chen was the leader, then what is the purpose of change? Where, then, is the legitimacy of the rights of the conspirators of the congregation?

So the easiest way came up.

Dividing the Xia Cheng, which already had some plump cream, and creating contradictions that had no contradictions, in order to demonstrate the legitimacy of the change of power—the Jixia government belonged to all Xia Cheng, but the council government belonged to the people of the old Xia Cheng—which was different from the previous Chengyi government, in order to determine the core of the new ruling class.

Simply and brutally dividing a tight city into two halves, instigating one half to bully the other, can last for years. When the original instigated profit half is developed and expanded, the original "correct and real old Xia Cheng people" will be divided into two halves, and the carnival can be maintained for a long time.

Under the premise that they are not able to expand the bread of the whole city, it is the easiest way to reduce the number of people who divide the bread and forcibly use the clans to cover up the interests they are pursuing, and to give a strong sense of justice and rationality to their actions.

When the clan gradually expands, and even the descendants of a real clan rule the whole world, and the blood and clan can no longer distinguish who deserves to die and who does not, they can use heresy, paganism, foreign country, foreign province, sweet and salty, tall and short, and so on to decide who deserves to die and who does not deserve, so that the ambitious people can taste the feast with grace.

The root of all problems is nothing more than economic interests, which change some taste after putting on all kinds of beautiful skins, and then judge right and wrong by morality that is acceptable to people.

Thus, as this morbid and deformed carnival drew to a close, and a large number of new countrymen were reduced to half-slaves who had no land to plough cattle, a new problem arose before everyone.

In the past, there were city chiefs and subordinate officials who were divided into rules, and there were rules to ensure the fairness of distribution, but now there is nothing, and a person's strength is weak, and in order to get the fairness they want, they always have to find someone to rely on, so the clan appeared.

This is something that is maintained by blood, at least not imagined, and seems to be the most in line with and the only thing that can guarantee the interests of a single weak person in the midst of chaos.

But the foundation of Xia Cheng before was not a clan.

As a result, the month of June in Muma's memory was extremely chaotic.

First of all, a good thing.

A large number of Xinxia people were unable to survive after being confiscated of their land tools, perhaps because they were afraid that they would resist to the death, so they did not treat them as slaves, but they could not survive, and the woodworking workshop built by Muma and others ushered in the cheapest wage price ever - only a bowl of rice.

Many of the people of New Xia had to sell themselves into slavery in order to survive, but most of the people who bought them were council members and clan nobles.

Mu Ma's blood was surging during the fight, but it was a little difficult to accept if he bought those people from Xinxia City who had worked together before and always saw each other on weekdays as slaves. It's always bad to get something for nothing in Xia Cheng's morality, and although it doesn't fit in with the rest of the city, it always has some influence over the years.

Good things come together with good things.

Muma suddenly realized that his Ris had lost his authority in an instant.

The matter stemmed from the looting of the property of those people of New Xia City, and after one of them was deprived of all their possessions, two people quarreled over a cow.

Originally, there was Ris, and when the rules were perfect, there was no chance to argue.

But now under the slogan of everything for private and public property, the meaning of this cow is completely different. When the two of them were arguing, the clans to which the two belonged were also involved, and when Mu Ma ran over after knowing about it, he was also beaten with a stick because he was not from the two clans.

The land was kept private, the confiscated land and slaves were distributed by the clan, and the voice of the clan instead of the city government constantly affected Xia Cheng.

Many people were shocked to find that the original Xia Cheng was gone, and the new Xia Cheng became unrecognizable.

Xia City, which many people don't recognize, means that those conspirators succeed in their first step.

In a large room, the nobles of the two clans that had fought for cattle were drinking together.

"In the past, there were rules for everything, and that's not good."

"There are rules for everything, what do you want us to do?"

"Yes, the people are afraid of the rules, not us. This is not right. Just like in the past, when Ji Song was a sikou, the clansmen were not afraid of him, and he was also very kind, but he still had authority, because everyone was afraid of the rules behind him, and they were also afraid of the power in the hands of Ji Xia, who enforced the rules. ”

"Therefore, if you want Ji Xia to not come back, you have to let the rules get out, you have to deliberately let them fight, and you are not allowed to use the previous rules to restrain them. When they fight hard, they will naturally know that only the clan is their only reliance. The concept of the Xia City clan is fake, and the clan is real. ”

"We have to continue to mess up for a while, so that the people below don't trust each other, so that we can sit safely. Want to rebel? Ha, we will be afraid of the whole Xia City rebellion, if a few people say ...... My slave privates are enough. ”

"Remember, it must not be fair when dividing things, we must give more to some people and less to some people, let those who give more stand on our side, and let those who give less hate those who get more. Let those people know that if you are close to us, you can live well, and if you oppose us, you will be worse off than dead. ”

Based on the agitation of this idea, the old system inevitably collapsed without the protection of the overriding right of the city.

There are no rules, everything is free and anarchic, and people have returned to the era of the clan when everything was judged by the chief, the elderly, the nobles, etc.

Without organization, the Ris system collapsed and could only rely on the clan. And the clan chiefs and nobles have their own private soldiers and slaves, and inevitably become the owners of power.

I have to say that there are no foreign enemies for the time being, the land and property of the people of New Xiacheng have been divided, and a large number of materials accumulated before, so that the people of Old Xiacheng have lived a life of human beings in a short period of time, which Jian Chen did not dare to promise and dare not promise, but the council did it in just one month, because they carved up the wealth accumulated in Xiacheng for several years and caused a sick prosperity in a short period of time.

This morbid came to an abrupt end in July.

Several envoys from Yucheng approached Xiacheng and did not enter the city, but only publicized the archway that Chen Jian had set up outside the city, stating that he would return to Xiacheng in winter, because he did not want to hinder the normal autumn harvest and autumn planting in Xiacheng, and declared that he did not betray, but took people to Dongyi to bring back more wealth for Xiacheng.

After the messenger shouted, he left, and these people knew that Ji Xia had taken 3,000 people to Dongyi, where the city was full of cities, and three days later, the rumor that "Ji Xia's 3,000 people fought fiercely with Dongyi and was killed by an arrow" came into being, and I don't know whether it is true or not.

Obviously, this was a rumor, but it made many people uneasy, and many people in Xiacheng spontaneously went to the shrine to pray for the protection of their ancestors.

Rumors are not credible, but the creators of the rumors do not think so. In their opinion, Yucheng is already in chaos, since Chen Jian shouted the slogan of going to Dongyi first and then returning to Xiacheng, then going to Dongyi must be a life of death, and even if it is not, it will inevitably be a big injury.

The words of coming back in winter are nothing more than intimidation, and if it is delayed until next spring and summer, Xia Cheng will never be able to go back, so what can he do if he comes back?

That is, in the days when the rumors were spreading, the situation in the entire Xia City suddenly opened, and the events that spanned thousands of miles made the conspirators of Xia City breathe a sigh of relief.

In the eyes of the conspirators, Chen Jian is crazy, he will definitely die if he goes out to fight Dongyi with such a small number of troops, and he actually did not return to Xiacheng first, obviously he is not ready to govern Xiacheng, and even acquiesced to the form of Xia Yu's split, maybe only need to respect Ji Xia as the leader at that time, but Xia Cheng will do Xia Zheng, and Yucheng will do Yu Zheng, and they will not affect each other.

This delusion was not only born in the minds of the conspirators, but also affected all the nearby cities, who had been waiting and watching, and had not accepted such generous conditions that would turn their backs on the interests of Xia City, because they were afraid. But now the one that scared them may no longer be there.

All the threats disappeared for a while.

Wei and E had not expressed their position before, but after this incident, they quickly received the envoys sent by the conspirators of the council, and ambiguously expressed their support for the decision of the people of Xia Cheng, but the envoys were not received by the chief or the high priest, but by a very random nobleman of the city.

The white horse, who had been closing the gates of the city and announcing that he would not participate in any disputes in Xia City, also opened the city gates after the rumors spread, and sent people to Xia City, claiming that Yangguan would never turn his back on Xia City, but he would routinely go to the grassland to raid and collect tribute in the next few days, so there was no time to return to Xia City before next year.

With this diplomatic situation clear, the conspirators of Xia Cheng took control of the public property such as the Yantian Copper Mine, which was nominally going to be divided, and came up with a genius idea in their excitement.

What could be more lucrative than minting money? Why did Ji Xia control the number of coins minted? It's just incomprehensible.

So all the slaves of the families and a large number of the original public slaves were sent to the mines and smelting workshops, and all the copper in stock was melted and minted into coins, and a large copper coin with the number one hundred written on it was issued.

They had made a fortune, and they had more money than the entire Summer City had in the previous two years.

According to the previous purchasing power, you can buy the entire Xia Yu plus the total production of the inner city of the vampire system for two years.
