"The Chieftain is concerned about our rapid growth, believing that we are now capable of threatening his position, and that his tribes have recently taken refuge in us. So, he wants to do it and strangle us. So, ask about Pakistan's attitude. ”

"Is it because we were under the jurisdiction of Pakistan before?"

"Yes!"

"Hey, it's almost time to offer to Pakistan, right? Are you ready for the tribute? ”

Zhang Youren frowned: "Pakistan's strength is too strong, and it is not appropriate to fall out." It's just that we're quite embarrassed right now. According to what tribe's standards should they pay tribute to him? ”

"So be it! Don't bother with the tribute, leave it to me. If you concentrate on internal affairs, diplomacy and war, don't be distracted. ”

"Hmm."

The next day, several more tribes returned to Shun one after another, and Li Dao shared the burden for Zhang Youren and personally received them.

Those leaders were a little trembling when they saw Li Daodu, and carefully offered their tribute.

Li Dao accepted it with satisfaction: "I am very happy that you can submit to me, it doesn't matter what the tribute is." The reason why I have brought you to submission is not because of oppression. ”

The group of people was prostrate on the ground, disdainful in their hearts.

Li Dao knew that they didn't believe it, and continued: "You guys, I'll be honest, I really don't like it. Today, I declare in your presence that no tribute will be paid to those who submit to our tribe! ”

One of the leaders shuddered and asked, "Really?" ”

"What do you say?"

"Ahh No, no, no! It was we who sincerely confessed, and you did not force us! The leader hastened to change his tune.

"Hah! You've been squeezed for too long! Suddenly I gave you a benefit, and you didn't dare to accept it, just thinking that I had some conspiracy, or wanted something bigger. Alas! Li Dao shook his head, "What is this called?" Servility! To change the Terrans, I'll start with you! I'm going to get you guys on your feet! Break your servility! ”

"Get up!"

A group of people trembled, prostrate on the ground and did not dare to move, and some were even frightened.

Li Dao's face sank, and he said sharply: "Get up!" ”

They didn't hear the sound right, and they struggled to get up from the ground.

Even if their spirits are still on their knees, it is a crucial step for their bodies to rise first.

"You've seen some of our tribe's facilities, farmland, when you came."

"See."

"The reason why you kneel to those gods is because your stomachs are not full. Submit to me, and I can solve your food and clothing problems. Send someone to teach you how to grow for free, and you won't have to risk your life to hunt again. ”

"Free?"

"Yes!"

"Don't we have to give anything?"

"Absolutely! First, abandon your backward ways of life, humbly learn from us, and consult those whom I have sent. Second, we provide the seeds, the technology and the tools, and you hand over 30% of the food. Thirdly, every male has an obligation to be a warrior. Duty, that is, once there is an order, you must do it. ”

"Fourth, try to trade in the markets we have opened. Fifth, obey the overall management. Sixth, the chief should come once a month to report on the situation and problems of the tribe. Seventh, the tribes are no longer allowed to engage in seclusion and intermarriage is allowed. Eighth, unify weights and measures. Ninth, the gradual unification of language and writing. Tenth, no further tribute shall be paid to anyone. ”

The leaders saluted: "We will." It's just that, the third one, there are some things I don't understand. ”

"It's your men, what you should do in normal times, only when the conscription order is issued, you must respond to the call and actively serve as soldiers." Li Dao explained, "Don't worry! It's not free, it's paid! Every soldier's family has a monthly allowance and various benefits. The specific content will be discussed later. ”

"That's good! We accept! ”

Another leader said, "Article 10 is good for us, but it is a bit difficult. My tribe is in the north, and I pay tribute to Di. They are already very dissatisfied with you, and if they cut off the supply, I am afraid they will ......."

"Yes! The Qiang in our south is also a very large tribe, and we have been paying tribute to them for a long time, and we really can't afford to offend them. ”

"Don't worry! Since you are unto me, I will protect you. Whoever dares to violate you will pay a terrible price! ”

"Thank you, Great Chief!"

"My purpose is not to rule you, but to make everyone better than before!"

The leaders wept with gratitude: "No one has ever said that to us, they just ask for it from us, and they have never done anything for us." The Great Leader is really a Heavenly Lord! ”

"Why don't we call us Holy Lord?"

Li Dao waved his hand: "It's still early for this matter!" After I have truly done something practical for you, and you have truly felt my good intentions, you will admit me from the bottom of your heart. I don't like fakes. ”

"Yes, Grand Chief!"

"Let's go back! I will arrange everything as soon as possible. Do not be in a hurry, but be patient. ”

"Yes!"

Everyone retreated, and Li Dao wrote down ten orders to the guards: "Give it to Zhang Youren, let him improve some specific content, and show it to me." ”

"Yes!"

After receiving these leaders, Li Dao went to Yang Jian to see about the formation of a new army.

This task has dragged on for too long!

Crowds of people coming and going, a familiar figure, looking around with a sigh step by step.

"Hey! Isn't this a monkey chief? Li Dao walked over.

The monkey leader hurriedly stepped forward and was about to kneel, but Li Dao supported him.

"We don't want this here, just give it away."

The monkey leader was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The big leader is really different!" ”

Turning around and pointing to a cart of goods: "This is my filial piety to you, and it is also considered tuition." Yesterday, I saw that you guys are very nice here, and all kinds of things are very new and useful. I want to learn from you. You see? ”

"Excellent! I love your kind of tribe that is eager to learn and progress! Li Dao warmly welcomed him, "What do you want to learn?" ”

"I want to learn everything, and I want to make the tribe like you."

"Okay! No questions asked! I'll send someone to teach you these things for free. I don't want anything from you, and soon, you'll get ten orders, and I'll have you do it all. ”

Monkey Leader Daxi: "Thank you, Great Chief!" ”

"Pull those things back, I won't accept your tribute."

"Don't want tribute? Ah no, no, no, I'm not a tribute, I'm a tuition. The monkey leader was surprised again: this great leader was different from the previous ones!

"I said, teach you for free. You just have to do what you have to say. ”

It's the first time the monkey leader has seen such a big leader: After beating others, don't pay tribute, don't kneel, and teach us for free?

Is this really the guy on the eve before?

Li Dao saw his doubts: "The reason why I use force is only because you are too ignorant. Later, you will know my good intentions! Let's go back! ”

"Yes, Grand Chief!"

The monkey leader bowed respectfully to Li Dao.
