Yan Zheng watched a good show indifferently, he didn't think that the savage's brain could understand very profound things.

But he is too familiar with and understands the way of inciting the masses to fight the masses and playing with people and fighting people.

As long as you keep arousing a certain weakness in human nature and magnifying this weakness in everyone, then the group will immediately become a plate of scattered sand and start attacking each other.

And this kind of attack will become more and more crazy, directly turning into the irrationality of one group, and eventually it will converge into a rabble and attack another group.

There are many such tragedies in history, the most famous of which are the party struggles in the last years of the Ming Dynasty and a certain expanded struggle.

After the flogging, the four captive village chiefs were amazed at their power among their original people.

Especially later, they also ate the small stove that belonged to the village chief, and they only ate one bite, and they were conquered by this indescribable taste.

When they had eaten enough and received a jar of bamboo leaf tea to quench their thirst, they found that many of the original clansmen looked at them with envy.

Zhang Sanfeng was a little better, and the other four village chiefs who were born as captives were much taller.

After they understood that the whip in their hands meant power, after tasting the benefits of power for the first time, they almost immediately thought of what Yan Zheng said.

The promised benefits to the village chief continued to stir up the faint flame in their hearts.

When they started working again, they were noticeably stricter in their supervision, and even used the whip a few times.

And after moving the whip and not being resisted, their whip is like they can't stop, and there are always a few unlucky people who will be taken care of by them.

This change can be seen on the first day, which makes Yan Zheng very emotional, he feels that these wild people have not been civilized, so they have no concept of civilization at all.

For them, the weakness in human nature is in them a pure weakness that is not disguised. It's not like a person who has been trained by civilization will find an answer in his heart to convince himself.

After this scene, Yan Zheng believes that it may be much easier than imagined to subdue the wild people in this area.

He continued to observe, like a sociologist, conducting an experiment on human nature.

In accordance with the theories recorded in the booklets in his memory, he constantly combined them with this practice to achieve real learning and application.

Soon, two factions were evident among the captives, the superiors of the four village chiefs and the oppressed of the other captives.

The four village chiefs began to cooperate with each other, and when they found that someone had a tendency to hate them, they whipped the man together and urged him to do more work.

And they looked at the original clansmen succumbing, and actually showed a very happy expression.

Yan Zheng smiled, the reason why he chose people who looked frustrated and obscene to be these village chiefs was because these people were likely to be bullied and oppressed.

So when they turn over and sing, when they have completed the status change, they will naturally support the Mona that gives them the guarantee of power.

On the Wandering Savage side, it's much simpler. This group of people didn't cross paths before, and they all came to Monabu for a full meal.

For the power that Zhang Sanfeng has, these savages only envy, but not resentment.

Zhang Sanfeng also has no hatred with these people, for his own good treatment, he is only stricter when supervising the work.

By the time of the second distribution of food, new factions began to divide among the captives, and their internal contradictions began to intensify at this moment.

In order to get more food, some people began to curry favor with these village chiefs, especially some female captives, who approached these village chiefs intentionally or unintentionally.

Even if they used to be invisible, now these few people decide how much work they do, how much food they get, and whether they will be whipped or not.

As a result, a vested interest faction led by the village chief and a rebel faction led by the originally strong men were formed.

Yan Zheng waited coldly, did not interfere more, and let these village chiefs continue to behave.

And on the third day, he ordered the ropes from the feet of several village chiefs, and asked Ashin to praise them for their progress.

This made several village chiefs even more excited, and they even took the initiative to take on the task of watching over the captives at night.

And their whips began to be more ferocious, and their tempers became bigger and bigger. If someone resists the slightest, they will be beaten up by them and their dogs.

When the soldiers on the side saw it, they would only stop the brawl and ask these people to hurry up and work.

On the fifth night, the head of the captive village began to sleep with the wives of the other captives, and the captive actually watched from a short distance with a smile.

Yan Zheng was shocked, he didn't expect things to develop so quickly!

He summoned Riki and Ashin to tell them not to interfere too much, and he planned to see how despicable human nature could be.

"So, twelve tribes have sworn that they will trade with us?"

After Lu Wan took a trip with the goods, the tribes that had originally planned to learn about the trade almost agreed to establish a trading relationship with Monabu.

This made Yan Zheng very happy, which meant that Monabu had established trading relationships with thirteen tribes.

Lu Wan nodded and said, "That's right, after they saw the salt and leather, they all agreed!" There are also two larger tribes that agree that we will send goods to their tribes for exchange, and they also promise that they will not hunt for caravans."

Yan Zheng thought for a while and asked, "Then how many tribes have you run in total?" ”

"I can't remember, maybe there are as many as two hands and two feet."

Yan Zheng estimated that there were about twenty tribes, and the ones that were a little farther away were removed, so he could probably guess that most of the tribes that were willing to trade were slightly closer to Monabu.

After all, if you are close, you are even more afraid of a tribe like Monabu, which suddenly erupts.

"What about the nomadic tribes? Still unwilling to come to us? Yan Zheng asked again.

Lu Wan smiled: "They may still not believe us, so most of them only agree to trade, if we are really willing to do justice for them in the future, they may choose to come and return!" ”

Yan Zheng nodded, sighed and said, "Let's take it step by step!" For now, it's better to take in more wandering savages, and when the food is enough, you will go and catch more wandering savages back. ”

After pondering for a moment, Lu Wan looked at Yan Zheng and said in a deep voice: "Actually, I have a way to make the food increase quickly!" ”

Yan Zheng was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes and said, "What way?" ”

Lu Wan said extremely seriously: "I'll take the armor to ask for it!" If that tribe doesn't give it, we won't trade with them, just beat them! ”

The corners of Yan Zheng's mouth twitched, and he said bitterly: "Lu Wan, don't use your brain to think about such complicated issues in the future, you just do the things I arranged well!" ”

Lu Wan said honestly: "Is my method not good? This is the fastest way to get more food, and we hit the West Naibu and got food that took two or three months to eat! ”

"Good is good! Wouldn't it be better to just trade to get more food? You don't have to kill people yet, everyone wills! ”

Lu Wan was stunned, obviously in his understanding, he still thinks that trading without capital is the best, and if he exchanges things, will he take someone to grab it and make more money?

Yan Zheng didn't want to explain more to him, so he sent him away: "Okay, since those tribes have agreed to the deal, you go and tell them, and let them send envoys to discuss the trade." ”

Lu Wan wanted to say more, but Yan Zheng had already gotten up and left.
