Disembarking from the sailboat were not only a dozen or so sailors such as grassroots, but also the leaders of various tribes and the goods they carried with them.

What surprised Gu Guo the most were the three young girls that Hei Tao had brought down from the boat.

In this era when single marriage has not yet been popularized, it has become a consensus that the strong can communicate with more members of the opposite sex, even if you are the nominal leader of the tribal alliance in the city of a thousand people, you are not exempt from vulgarity.

But in the future, how can Gu Guo, who wants to encourage the emergence of single marriages, let others be single couples, but he is three wives and four concubines?

The meeting with the chiefs of the tribes in the lower reaches of the Tao River was in the parliamentary chamber of Gu Guoxin. The advent of bronze tools and the knowledge of mechanics in junior high school physics have created this wooden building covering an area of more than 100 square meters.

He sat at the head of the rectangular table, took a few black pottery cups as thin as cicada wings in Yangya's hand, and then glanced at the three thirteen or fourteen-year-old children behind her, who were supposed to be in junior high school but now carried the burden of marriage on their shoulders.

Seeing that Gu Guo didn't say anything after accepting the cup, Hei Tao hurriedly pushed the girl in the back to the front.

"Ji Gugu, these ......"

"Ahem, I know what you're sending these things for, just say it."

Gu Guo was an otaku in his previous life, he hadn't bitten any hook in the sticker, he had already experienced a hundred battles, he hated the twists and turns of interpersonal communication the most, and he could see at a glance the flattery with purpose, so let's avoid it now.

Seeing Gu Guo's impatient look, Yang Ya, who had suffered a loss, hurriedly said, "Ji Gugu, we came here this time to discuss those who were arrested...... Let's see if you can divide some of them. ”

After tasting the dividends of food production brought about by population growth, Yangya Yigan and others realized that only the more people there are, the more food can be grown in the field.

Gu Guo's eyebrows stretched imperceptibly, it turned out that he was just here to ask for someone.

"I've already arranged a place for these hundreds of captives, I'm afraid you'll be empty-handed this time." He arched his hand to the leaders present, saw the wrinkles between everyone's eyebrows, and said: "Three years ago, I traveled a thousand kilometers south on a sailing boat, and still did not reach the end of the Tao River. ”

The leaders held their breath, all waiting for Gu Guo to untie the gourd and see what medicine was sold inside.

"Within a thousand kilometers of the lower reaches of the Tao River, there are still many tribes still living in caves, and a hundred kilometers south of your city, there are settlements of three tribes, about two hundred people, and further south, there are many such settlements, adding up to more than 10,000 people."

"You shouldn't just look at the hundreds of people I caught, and take a long-term view."

When the leaders heard that there were more than 10,000 scattered tribes in the lower reaches of the Tao River, their eyes lit up, and a few who had studied arithmetic had already begun to fold their fingers to calculate the future grain production.

When the other leaders were still immersed in the future grain production, the clever sheep tooth had already guessed what Gu Guo wanted them to do, she pinched his back behind Hei Tao, Hei Tao understood, he said: "But Ji Gugu, who do these people rely on to naturalize?" ”

"Of course it's me and all of you!"

......

If you want to let those primitive people in the lower reaches of the Tao River who still live in caves and rely on the mountains to eat naturalize into their own cities, of course, they must choose the most difficult time of the year.

In the early winter, there was still some time before the winter solstice, and the water surface of the Tao River had not yet frozen, Gu Guo had already assembled five river sailing ships with a displacement of 30 tons, and You Hua led 70 heavily armed sailors and soldiers, loaded with food, and took a cadre of people in Yangya City to "arrest people" downstream.

After half a year of work, Gu Guo used the 30 workers who were 30% tax grain to build a boat, and he was already familiar with the road, and with the first sailboat as a template, he changed several unreasonable places, and finally completed it before the Tao River froze at the speed of launching one ship a month.

Hua stood on the bow of the boat that broke through the wind and waves, and beside him was Camelina, the two of them ate and drank and lived together after a whole year of collective training, and the relationship between them was uncle and nephew, and they had a quite tacit understanding with each other.

"Camelina is not as good as last time when I went south." Birch turned to lean on the railing and said to the first-time horseman, "Last time I and Goo just went down the river to take a look, it took nearly two months, this time we want to bring people back, maybe we will be outside next year." ”

Seeing his eldest nephew's determined gaze, Hua quipped: "If you don't go back for so long, your acacia will kill you!" ”

"Then think about it, anyway, Huaihua only sleeps with me now!" Looking at the waves in the heart of the river, it seems that his mind at the moment is not on seeing things and thinking about people.

"Yo, of course it's no problem for you, the platoon commander, to raise a locust flower with three people's food!"

Hearing this, Camellia's face was a little gloomy, and said: "Huaihua is now arranged by Gu Gu to be in charge of the sackcloth workshop, although she can't cook broth, but no one is faster than her in Mai, and there are six people under her hands!" It's not much different from our squad leader, so she doesn't need me to raise her! ”

"The linen uniforms on our bodies are all knitted by her!"

"Hahaha, that's it, that's it." Birch scratched his head in embarrassment, as if his eldest nephew was very supportive of his cousin.

"Uncle, do you remember the story that Gugu told?" Camelina asked suddenly.

"Which? Let's fight the yellow-haired tribe, or the one that was staged on stage half a year ago? ”

She shook her head and said, "It's the one from five years ago." ”

Camellia's words evoked long-term memories for the two of them, and most of Gu Guo's stories that night had now been realized, glazed pottery, days of the year, and nail-thin pottery of the Yangya tribe......

Now all that remains is the story that is currently unproven—the earth beneath our feet.

"You want to say you're going to prove that the ground beneath our feet is really a ball?" As a platoon commander, he naturally learned simple surveying and mapping methods in a year, and he had also heard a little about the three laws of mechanics related to archery in elementary school, and the more he knew, the more he knew how difficult the task really was.

"I'm just mentioning that people always have to have big ideals." "My dream was to be able to eat every day without going out of the cave, but now the boars raised in the fence and the wheat in the fields have helped me achieve it. ”

"Five years ago, it was impossible to dream of our current life, even in a dream, but Goo Goo has made them a reality."

"Now that the ideal of the past has been realized, then we should look further away, just like the last time you and Gugu went south for two months, if you hadn't made sure that there was no tribe as powerful as us in the lower reaches of the Tao River, the tribesmen would not have grown wheat comfortably for three years."

"Camelin, you have to think clearly, the earth under our feet is very big, and in the future, it will not be a year, but a lifetime! Acacia flowers! You'll never see locust flowers again! ”

Seeing that his nephew was still insisting, Hua hurriedly took out his sweetheart to dissuade him, but he saw that the camellia said with a relieved face: "Huaihua will go with me, if you don't go back, then you won't go back!" ”
