Chapter 410: Arrangements for the Long Journey

In fact, Zhang Fan was not willing to give some people such face from the beginning, and now, in the case that he is no longer alone to some extent, even if there is another large-scale showdown, Zhang Fan is fully sure of the big victory, and maybe from then on he can completely establish a completely different pattern of unification. It's just that Zhang Fan didn't do that in the end after weighing it.

Looking back on everything in his past, it seems that to a large extent it is more like some kind of "civilized nanny" management and even self-organizing intelligence will be replaced in the face of his powerful mental power perception, if so, can he really establish a certain kind of self-ability that can establish some kind of long-term peace and stability? At this time, Zhang Fan even began to think to a certain extent about whether to conduct some big tests on those people when the ten-year period comes. As for the children who remained in the Imperial Cliff themselves, and even those who came to the new city with them, Zhang Fan also planned to rearrange them, so that those children could have the conditions to survive independently when they left or were not there. At least until the end of the ten-year covenant.

Therefore, after settling down the expansion of the new city and the formulation of some basic laws and regulations in the future, and the preparation for self-organization, Zhang Fan began to return to the underground palace in the Emperor's Cliff, and was once again with the children of the Yuanban Tribe.

Maybe it's because they've experienced a lot of things and are carrying too many things, or maybe it's because the children of the Far Barbarian Department have lived in a different environment from Dongyuan since they can remember. During Zhang Fan's absence, almost all the children were able to do what Zhang Fan asked them to do, and there were no leaks. After returning from the Yuanban Department for more than three years, almost all the children can not only understand the Dongyuan language and even a special script taught by Zhang Fan, but also at least simulate the ordinary people of the Dongyuan Kingdom to the greatest extent in terms of language and even other aspects.

When there is leisure or Zhang Fan doesn't have too many requirements, the children in the underground palace are not as happy to play as before, but have a considerable degree of autonomy after passing the age of Mengxue.

After Zhang Fan returned, he did not let these children learn too much culture again, and Zhang Fan did not teach these children things such as some combat skills other than the minimum self-defense, but solemnly carried out an "engagement ceremony"

"You are the last hope of the entire Yuanbarian Tribe, so the greatest task of the next generation or even two or three generations, that is, in your lifetime, these days is actually to breed offspring and educate them well with a sufficiently advanced culture. How can a drop of water not dry up? Perhaps this can only be true if it flows into the sea, rather than blindly maintaining the backward traditions of the past, which has no way out... ”

Zhang Fan asked the children to gather together and said, "In the past few years, you should have spent more time with each other than I have with you. Now is the time for you to choose to get engaged. Remember, you have the freedom to choose, but you don't have the freedom to choose or not to choose according to the rules. A boy with three girls, you try not to be too demanding, write a note for your heart first, and then send it to me. I'll do my best to make adjustments, trying to take into account your wishes, but not entirely. Be prepared ... ”

Zhang Fan initially planned to give the children full freedom of choice to avoid hidden dangers, but after thinking for a while, he gave up. In many cases, free love or marriage is not necessarily much better than the suitability of arrangement, because many people will perform themselves to some extent in marriage and love, and it is difficult to hide some of their situations for a long time in front of their elders. What's more, although these children are a few years older, they are still children in the final analysis, and they are far from being as old as many teenagers in special circumstances.

Of course, Zhang Fan has a very high prestige among these children, and at this time, the children of the Yuanban tribe and even the concept of the tribe itself do not think that this matter is a major event worth mentioning, and in the end, there is not as much choice as Zhang Fan expected, Zhang Fan only made some adjustments to make the pairing basically complete, and determined one hundred and fifty "eldest wives" through the combination of boys' active choice and his own assistance In order to avoid the hidden dangers after the marriage was established, Zhang Fan personally announced the candidate for the eldest wife.

Subsequently, he also solemnly told the children about the family principles that he had prepared and even seriously thought about along the way: "When you were in the Yuanban Division, you may have seen a big family without a limit on the number of people, a big family. Many people still remember their second father, third father, second mother and three mothers, and so on. In this way, there will be no chaos, it is because there are strong enough patriarchs and even external troubles, but if we want to avoid internal disputes and disintegrate the family in the case of the Eastern Plains Kingdom, and to seek reproduction and development in the most efficient way, it is necessary to implement the system of polygamy and polygamy. That is to say, the wife should obey her husband's arrangement, and the son should obey his father's arrangement completely. Of course, there are concubines other than the main wife... ”

"Does the concubine also have to follow the arrangement of the main wife?" The children of the Yuanban Department did not have as much sense of rules as the children of the Eastern Plains Country in essence, so there were also children who did not take much into account at this time. One of the children, who was not classified as a "wife", said.

Hearing this, Zhang Fan still had some thoughts of his own. With a lot of what I have seen and heard in the rivers and lakes, especially some of the people's feelings that I have learned after my spiritual strength has been greatly enriched. Zhang Fan did not agree with the suggestion that his wife was a concubine. Such an order is not entirely conducive to the family order to some extent, especially if the husband has a great deal of authority. Therefore, after thinking for a while, Zhang Fan said: "No, there is no distinction between wives and concubines, and the same is true for the children produced. Most... At most, it's just a sisterly relationship. Whose status or even power is greater depends on the husband's arrangement... ”

In front of Zhang Fan, these children from the Far Barbarian Department actually gradually did not have too many restraints, so soon a girl asked: "What if... What should we do if our husband scolds us?"

Zhang Fan was silent for a moment and then said solemnly: "You are the children of the Yuanban Department, not those very sensible children who have been disciplined since childhood. But this is not good for future generations and even your own character. It is only under the constraints and oppression that people can be strict with themselves to the greatest extent and improve their character and morality. A bad father is less likely to have a negative impact on his children, but a mother is different. That's why we want you girls to make status sacrifices in family relationships. If someone feels that the world is unjust, the oppression is too great. I don't want you to hold back. For the wicked people who are very clear and the excessive violence within the family, they must be afraid of their own lives and secretly repay each other. As for how to repay each other, I think you are all wise children, and you should know that if the people you live with want to do it, there will be more than a hundred ways to kill the wicked... Many of the boys shuddered when they heard this.

Zhang Fan went on to add: "In addition to the dominance of family relations, men also have dominance over the distribution of property. But you should know that even if you think that one of the children is very productive and sensible, if it is not particularly unusual, you should divide the wealth or the fruits of your labor as evenly as possible. If someone falls into poverty because they don't have enough inheritance, then there will be problems with the reproduction of offspring, and you will break the responsibility you have had. These things should be very simple ... ”

Zhang Fan also told a lot, and did not forget that these children could not be compared with themselves in terms of memory, so then Zhang Fan also recorded his instructions in front of the children and engraved them on a stone wall. If this is not the case, it is difficult for Zhang Fan to ensure that some of his words can always affect the children.

Of course, there are also people who are not stupid among these children of the Far Barbarian Tribe: "We listen to the Lord in everything, and with the Lord here, everything should be... ”

"But what if I'm not there? Also, your next generation may not all have the same experience as you, and not everyone will be sensible. Perhaps there will always be some disdainful descendants. I can also give you some principles and methods that are known to the world. For example, you should remember that the requirements for your children should start from an early age, and you should not indulge or treat your children as equal friends in the true sense of the word... ”

In these words of Zhang Fan's advice, many of the concepts actually do not agree with him. For example, even if the husband should have more power, he should not be so dominant, and some methods of teaching his children can be more flexible. It's just that after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Fan still gave up those things that were too demanding. Obviously, there are reasons and reasons for many of the concepts of respect and inferiority in Dongyuan, and if this is not the case, it will be impossible to establish a relatively stable order, and it is easy to bring more risks due to competition. Perhaps for a large society, the reproduction of the population is no longer the primary purpose, and this feudal relationship should be adjusted to a large extent, but for these far-reaching barbarian fires with only one or two hundred men or even a few hundred spouses left, it is obvious that this is the case for cadres.

In front of these children, Zhang Fan did not intend to hide everything: "After a while, after ten years of supplies have been raised, and the new library where these things are stored has no problems in the test, I will travel far away, maybe for as little as three years and as long as ten years with you." There is also a one or two percent chance that they will never return. So many things have to be accounted for now ... ”

Although the time with these children is not long, but because of many things and even more simple feelings than ordinary children in the Eastern Plains, when they learned the news that Zhang Fan was going to stay away, many children were a little reluctant and even cried. Zhang Fan also smiled and persuaded at this time: "Life is a long way to go, you recall that it has only been a few years since you can remember." As long as an ordinary person pays more attention to diet and health, and has a minimum guarantee for children's pension, seven or eight out of ten people should be able to live to the age of 84, and at least three or four percent of the people should be able to live to the age of 95. Those who have not lived to this age are mostly vegetarian or too meat-based on their diets, and there are too many things that affect their health in life and even in their fantasy. I am a skilled martial artist, and one hundred and six years old is a very normal lifespan. We still have more than 80 years left in our lives, and what is there between a few years and ten years? ”

Hearing this, many children's hearts gradually calmed down.

Zhang Fan was reluctant to say too much about these children from the Far Barbarian Department, but outside, Zhang Fan pretended to be honest and told some people that he might have to leave for at least three years or at most about five years. The main thing is to go to the unknown world outside the snow-capped mountains of the Western Regions that I have not been to outside the region, and even to find some opportunities in the long mountains and forests in the north. Even if you have good skills, it may take a lot of time. It is not impossible to be in distress, and if you have not returned by the fifth year, it is obvious that you are in distress. But even then, I hope that the people of the new generation will be able to live up to the trust and be able to cope with everything they may have to face when they are not there.

Of course, what Zhang Fan said is not all lies, and he has also felt that he seems to have encountered a bottleneck in a certain sense from his skills to spells in the past few years, and he may really need to venture out to find some places that are not in the book, or only have a hazy and unreliable overview and are not detailed in detail. The Ecstasy Continent itself should not have visited it all. If you still get nothing in the end for a few years to ten years or so, it may be God's arrangement in a sense, and you can only accept your fate in this situation. The world's pinnacle masters often only have a lifespan of about one hundred and fifty or sixty years old, and even if they don't live to that age, they actually have nothing to regret.

When the news spread throughout the new city and gradually spread to the various states and counties, some of the more intelligent people felt that this might be some kind of unique arrangement. Maybe it's just to kill a horse gun or something. Of course, some people began to expect that if Zhang Fan really planned to climb over the snowy mountains of the West Mountain and go to an unknown place that no one had ever been to, it was not impossible to be in danger. If that is the case, many actions must be prepared as soon as possible ...

Zhang Fan went west at first, but chose to take a detour to the south halfway. Of course, Zhang Fan also knew the danger of crossing the snow-capped mountain Jedi by land, so this time, his plan was to return to the Lost Soul Continent first, and then travel west by sea to find an opportunity.
