Chapter 49: Rough Scheme
The rice in the paddy field has begun to fill the grain, and the pods on the bean seedlings have begun to plump.
The transplanted peilan, xinyi, wild onions, and wild leeks are also lush and green.
The second batch of sacred birds has also hatched, and the baby black deer has also adapted to human feeding.
The soil is very fertile, except for the defective mines. Even the climate can be regarded as smooth and rainy.
Zhang Sanfeng had already led people to start laying the foundation, and in the three squares that Yan Zheng had demarcated, they dug a trench knee-deep.
Yan Zheng was very satisfied with the progress of his work, and Zhang Sanfeng only took three days to deploy manpower and build while burning bricks.
Although the connection is not very tacit, it is still rare to have this kind of ability and idea of arranging personnel.
During the whole process, Yan Zheng did not intend to guide him, but hoped that he could find an optimal plan through his own exploration.
In order to allow the tribe to quickly establish more common consciousness, while building houses, Yan Zheng launched a movement to change customs.
First of all, he had the pottery people make rice bowls, spoons, teacups and other kinds of eating utensils, as well as steamed rice dishes that could be used to cook rice with steam.
He also asked the tribesmen to make a large number of chopsticks and bamboo spoons out of bamboo.
And because there was enough fur, he also asked the leather-making woman to make shorts with crotch and shoes with shoes.
These things were taught to the people through his guidance and teaching.
He also ordered that in the future, the clansmen must use dishes and chopsticks to eat, and children are allowed to use spoons.
It was also stipulated that each clan member must wear shoes and shorts with a crotch.
This movement to change customs began vigorously and was almost forcibly implemented under the tyranny of Yan Zheng.
Even in order to let the clansmen learn to eat with chopsticks, he also took the initiative to eat with the clansmen for several days.
He also developed several more elaborate ways of cooking, not allowing the clansmen to engage in a hodgepodge of cooking.
After the clansmen were able to use chopsticks clumsily and put on shoes and shorts with crotch, Yan Zheng asked the clansmen who struck iron to get a razor.
He decreed that in the future, men in the clan should no longer grow long hair, and should mainly wear short hair that is easy to clean. If you are a woman, you must use a hairpin to tie up your hair.
This set of rules was set, and while the clansmen were miserable, they had to choose to accept it.
Then they realized the benefits, especially the pants with crotch and shoes, which were quickly accepted by the people.
As for the bowl and chopsticks meal, it was gradually recognized by the clansmen under the compulsory implementation.
As for the shaving of the head, the clansmen did not say anything more, after all, the chief had personally twisted his own hair.
In this way, a month after the New Customs Movement, Monabu was almost completely new.
Compared with people from other tribes, there is a very intuitive difference in appearance. Just by looking at it, you can tell the difference.
Yan Zheng originally wanted the clansmen to sleep in bed and wear linen shirts. However, due to the constraints of tools and raw materials, I can only choose to put it on hold.
He believes that these small things, when a consensus is formed, will create a strong sense of commonality.
It's like the Huaxia clan will stubbornly obey, knot for China, and spread for Yi. The right side is Hua, and the left side is Yi.
Many sociologists believe that the strongest ideology is often the habits of a race.
Therefore, Yan Zheng wants to shape the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the Mona Ministry, so that the Mona Ministry can be further civilized, instead of going up with hard power, but the soft power is still in the primitive society.
It's just that what makes him depressed is that the development of hard power has also encountered a huge bottleneck, because he still hasn't found iron ore.
After a few more trading meetings, he almost gave up on relying on other tribes to find iron ore.
He harvested some strange stones, but they were eventually turned into stone hoes and knives.
Let the wildlings go to find iron ore, this is really a matter of probability.
Fortunately, in the latest transaction, the goods of wandering savages have appeared, which can be regarded as a huge victory for Yan Zheng.
Over the course of a month, Luwan and Ansan led the armor to hunt and search for wandering savages, and caught a total of 134 wandering savages who were willing to belong to Monabu.
This made the population of the tribe quickly climb a step.
It's a pity that there are smart people among the wandering savages, but most of them are mediocre.
There are also many wandering savages' thoughts, which are even more incomprehensible to Yan Zheng.
He pretended to be a ghost, saying that he could talk to the ancestral spirits, and foreshadowed that there was a disaster in Monabu, and only he could save it.
After Yan Zheng heard this, he asked him if there would be a disaster in a few days.
The man said that there would be a catastrophe after five sunsets, and that only by making him a witch could he avoid it.
Yan Zheng laughed and asked people to tie him up, and after five days nothing happened, and then he was hanged from a tree to warn the others not to pretend to be ghosts.
There are also people who offer the method of mating that they learned from wild beasts, saying that they can make people fight endlessly.
This Yan Zheng was very interested, but after listening to it, he asked Lu Wan to beat the man.
There was also a wandering savage who kept telling him through the village chief that there was a treasure to offer.
He originally thought that the wandering savages had no treasures to speak of, but Lu Wan said that he had seen it, and it was a very beautiful stone.
After listening to Lu Wan's description, Yan Zheng chose to meet this wild man.
"So you said you had a treasure to offer me?"
Here came a short, thin savage with three horrific scars on his face.
"That's right, it's a good treasure, and I know that I can continue to find this treasure there!" He squinted and smiled.
Yan Zheng smiled faintly and said, "What is your name, originally from that tribe?" ”
"My name is Ma Zhu, and I was originally from the headquarters of the Douwei Society."
"Douwei Society Headquarters? Are there too many people? ”
"It's more than ten times the size of your Monabu!" Ma Zhu laughed.
Yan Zheng stared at him and nodded, "What about the treasure!" ”
Ma Zhu smiled and took out a stone from his waist and handed it over with a little flattery.
Yan Zheng glanced at it, and his eyes shrank sharply!
This so-called treasure is actually fluorite, which shows four colors under the illumination of the light, and the corners are very crystalline.
And this fluorite has been polished, and the color it presents is also a diffusion shape from the inside out.
"Where did this fluorite come from?" Yan Zheng's eyes became fierce.
Ma Zhu knew that this thing was called fluorite, and seeing that Yan Zheng's reaction was a little big, he continued to laugh and said, "I picked it up from a place where only I know!" ”
"Oh?" Yan Zheng's eyes calmed down, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you want?" Just tell me about this place? ”
Ma Zhu's small eyes were excited and said, "It's very simple, you only need an iron axe, a bamboo armor, and let me lead a team of armor." ”
"The Taduo Tribe, the Reed Division, and the Adao Tribe, are all relatives of your Douwei Society, right?" Yan Zheng asked suddenly.
Ma Zhu was stunned and said: "That's right, they are all relatives of the Douwei Society!" ”
"How far is the Douwei Society from here?"
"About five days!"
Yan Zheng smiled faintly, threw the fluorite to Ma Zhu and said, "I can't look down on this treasure, it's not enough to exchange for an iron axe and a body of bamboo armor!" ”
Ma Zhu was stunned, the original excitement dissipated instantly, and he hurriedly said: "You can do without bamboo armor, just an iron axe!" ”
Yan Zheng sneered and said, "Okay, is it time for you to take us to that place?" ”
Ma Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well, that place is only I can find, and I will take you there." ”
"How far is it from Monabe?"
"Three days away!"
"Good!" Yan Zheng looked at him with a smile and ordered fiercely: "Lu Wan, tie him up for me!" ”
After Lu Wan was stunned for a moment, he immediately grabbed Ma Zhu, and with the cooperation of the two armor soldiers, Ma Zhu was tied to death.
Ma Zhu didn't understand what the situation was, and said in a panic: "You can't catch me, you are like this, I won't take you to find treasures!" ”
Yan Zheng stared at him viciously, gritted his teeth and said, "Are you an idiot when you are Lao Tzu?" Will lead a team to the vicinity of a big tribe, your fucking Douwei Society, actually plotted against Lao Tzu, don't you want an iron axe? I promise you, Monabe's iron axe will one day hit you! ”
Ma Zhu's eyes widened, and he immediately became confused.
Lu Wan, who reacted slowly and half a beat, didn't understand the profound things, and when he heard that someone was trying to plot against Mo Nabu, he immediately punched Ma Zhu hard.
"Don't beat him to death, tie him up and starve him for a few days!"
