Chapter Ninety-Five: The Four Clans Gather
"You want to live in the wilderness for a while?"
Roze was very worried when he heard her intentions.
"Forget it this year, when their people come, let's inquire more about the southwest side first."
The wilderness and the white rocks have been neighbors for generations, just like the relationship between the purple flower and the high mountains.
However, the White Rock tribe is said to be so powerful that they don't look down on the other people around them.
Jun Qianqian felt bald, if it weren't for their resources, most of the people in Zihua, including her, would be somewhat socially phobic and unwilling to deal with people with strong personalities, so it would be most suitable for the Wild Tribe to act as a middleman.
"We'll talk about it then."
She had to leave this matter behind her for now, and there was still something busy in front of her.
Luo Ze sent people to the mountain tribes in advance to spread the message, they not only had to invite people to witness, but also to borrow other people's territory, so Zihua prepared a lot of gifts to send over.
However, this time the mountain tribe was surprisingly talkative, and only half of the gift was accepted, and the rest was brought back by the messenger.
"Are you sure this is good talk, not disgusting us?"
The gift was returned, and Jun Qianqian felt a little awkward in her heart.
"Definitely not! This time, we met the priests of the mountain tribes! She personally gave us a ride back. ”
Ana replied firmly.
"I really don't understand your primitive society."
Listening to Ana's description of the situation on the day of the negotiation, Jun Qianqian finally relieved herself, and their weaving skills were still kept by the mountain tribes.
The relationship between neighbors must be good, otherwise how can you make a small amount of money in a down-to-earth manner.
Jun Qianqian was also in the tribe's team that day, and they set off together to go to the territory of the mountain tribe, and when she saw Pula at the door, she instantly had a black line on her face.
How could she not be surprised that she would see Pula again so soon?
"You don't seem to be happy to see me at all."
Pula ran over enthusiastically, took Jun Qianqian's hand affectionately, and after being rolled her eyes head-on, she also showed an aggrieved expression.
"I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"
Jun Qianqian doesn't hate Pula, but she is half a scientist, and Pula is the one who engages in politics, and these two people are inherently incompatible.
"I'm going back with you to learn how to build a house!"
Pula saw Jun Qianqian's displeasure, and mercilessly made up for it.
It's too early to get rid of her!
"I'm so scared of you."
Jun Qianqian shook her head and smiled helplessly.
Two girls held hands, hiding behind the crowd, and the patriarchs of the four tribes gathered together, a grand occasion not seen in a hundred years for the southern region.
The mountain tribe was stationed in an open area, and the four teams gathered together, and Luo Ze took out a duplicate of the covenant, and the foreigners were all confused.
"Today, under the witness of the Gaoshan tribe and the willow tribe, the Purple Flower tribe has formed an alliance with the wilderness tribe."
Luo Ze took the covenant and read it out in front of everyone, and a long list of tribal names was pronounced, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
The covenant clearly states the content and duration of the transaction between the two parties, and in addition, it also stipulates that the two parties will not leak secrets or betray each other after the end of the transaction period.
Because the two tribes were too far apart, it was not written that there would be a battle to support each other, after all, the whip could not reach it.
The other tribes had never seen the written word, and Jun Qianqian attached the 3,000-word comparison table to the back of the covenant, and the four tribes could keep a copy.
In this way, no one will have to worry about the words of the covenant being broken away.
The signing of the covenant was also very formal, and the patriarch of the wilderness could not write, so in the middle of the two chapters of animal skins, he pressed his palm print.
Luo Ze also pressed the palm print, the black ink clay is made of toner powder and meat oil, the carbon is very stable under natural conditions, and the shape of the palm will not fade for a long time.
"Finally, cut the two covenants in the middle, and keep half of them each."
Ancient covenants were made in this way:
The two parties who signed the contract will write the word "same" in the middle of the contract, and then cut it in half, and the contract in duplicate will be staggered and kept in their respective hands, and when it is necessary to check, the four pieces will be aligned.
This is where the word "contract" comes from.
"I've never seen anything like it."
The patriarch of the Willow Tribe, a middle-aged woman named Duoli, has a good relationship with the surrounding tribes, and has had a long-term deal with the Purple Flower Tribe.
As a witness, she watched the ceremony.
Whether it is the text or the covenant, it makes people feel the seriousness of the alliance.
Let people subconsciously understand that this agreement must be taken seriously.
"You'll teach us that thing called words."
Pula looked at Jun Qianqian with a smile.
"Of course, it's free."
Jun Qianqian also smiled.
"You won't be so kind!"
Even though Pula didn't know the influence of culture, she understood that Jun Qianqian was a smart person, and she would never do day jobs.
"We can both win, don't think so badly."
Ordinary smart people harm others and benefit themselves, and smart people who learn from the top level make progress together, even if Yang Mou is seen through, he still can't refuse, after all, who can not want to pick up cheap?
When the wilderness tribe came to participate in the ceremony, they had already brought the twenty part-time workers and the study team, and after the end, they went back directly with Zihua.
They will all stay in the mountain tribe tonight, and the purple flower, who was originally close and had time to go home, also stays, it is rare for so many tribes of them to get together.
"The mountain tribe invited me to a feast?"
Jun Qianqian's hand holding the barbecue slid and raised her head with a blank expression.
She came to explore the road this time, and the banquet was noisy, even if it was not as tiresome as the wine table entertainment, but she didn't like the lively character, so she went back to the cave arranged by the mountain tribe in advance.
Pelo wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and the only task she had over was clear, which was to take care of Jun Qianqian and not let her run around.
"It's the priest, please go."
The attitude of the Gaoshan tribesmen who came to deliver the message was very respectful, which made the Zihua people in the tent even more confused.
"Is our patriarch too?"
Ana walked over and stood next to his wife Pelo, with a posture that Jun Qianqian was going to follow wherever they went.
"This is an invitation to the altar, near the feast."
The messenger was a little panicked, not that he was weak-hearted, but that the priest rarely ordered the people to do things on weekdays.
If he doesn't do a good job, he doesn't need to be told by others, and he will blame himself.
"Forget it, let's go talk to the patriarch first, and then go to the sacrificial platform."
The little brother of the messenger had a tangled face, Jun Qianqian couldn't stand it anymore, not to mention, she heard the three words of the sacrificial platform.
She regretfully put down the barbecue in her hand, and the fragrant food came to her mouth, but the matter of the sacrificial table was more important in her opinion.
"Alright, let's go with you."
Ana said immediately.
