Chapter 33: Heart-to-Heart (Part 22)

Linde then called out nine more people one after another, and this total of ten people was the ten people who made the greatest contributions on the battlefield, and others saw their bravery and efforts, so they felt very fair and had no objections.

These ten people are the first stage of the recitation, and then the second stage of the recitation begins, and the rewards are continued, so twenty more people are called out one after another, and they ask them whether they want to be rewarded according to the old rules or the new rules, and these twenty people look at each other, and they all feel that the old rules are simply weak, so they say the new rules in unison.

In fact, the new rules are similar, give them a big basket, and take what they want from the mountains of goods, but they can only use the basket to lift, and the big credit has the right to choose first, and the small credit is picked later, and others think it is also very fair and honorable.

After the merit of this series of rewards had been completed, Linde announced that all the families were to be given a pot of iron, a brick of tea, two horses of cloth, twenty needles, and a number of cattle, sheep and horses, and that such a distribution had been carefully negotiated so that a family could live a life of sufficient food. In this way, the most basic things in the tribe were solved, and Linde's prestige was also erected.

This first step is solved, and then Lin Fengjin's idea has to be slowly figured out, because the next thing is that it can't come fast if you want to, and there shouldn't be a way to carry out the next step in two or three years, and it still has to be done by the whole clan of the Sanli tribe together.

On the second day after settling down the Sanli tribesmen, Lin De, under Lin Fengjin's instructions, invited the warriors of the clan, the clan elders, as well as Tuoba Zhen and her husband to come together, and wanted to have a deep talk with them, because the next series of things that Lin Fengjin was going to implement, if he did not have the support of these people, then it would be impossible to succeed.

The conversation began. Lin Fengjin didn't have any superfluous words, and he went straight to the point and uncovered the most miserable scars of the tribes in Sanli and even on the grassland, that is, "sacrificing the white-haired wind".

At the mention of this tragedy, everyone's faces changed, in fact, after Linde left the tribe, the climate has gradually improved, and the two winters can barely be passed, but everyone knows that it is just because there is no disastrous weather, and the white-haired wind does not come.

Lin Fengjin asked them a question very sharply:

"Why did this happen to you?"

The question was immediately asked, and all of them were speechless. For a while, they all looked at each other, and they didn't know how to answer.

Lin Fengjin asked rhetorically from another angle:

"Why did the Han people not sacrifice the tragedy of the white hairy wind?"

More people answered this question at once:

"Because the Han people will build cities, build houses, and light fires in the houses to keep warm. ”

Lin Fengjin continued:

"Why can't we build a city in three miles, build a house and keep warm inside?"

Everyone was stunned, what was there to ask about such an obvious question in the heart, only Zhu Li glanced at Lin Fengjin deeply, and said seriously:

"Because the grasslands are not suitable for farming, and grazing requires very wide pastures, and the grasslands are full of predators. Therefore, if the city is built, even if it is built, the main force of the tribe cannot return to the city within the same day. It is built for nothing for the rest of the people. But if you just stay in a place within a day's distance and graze herds, you will not be able to feed the people of the tribe at all. ”

Lin Fengjin smiled and said:

"Very well explained and very thorough. But I would like to ask Uncle Rada again, you are a well-deserved authority in this regard. How long will it take for the pasture to be grazed again?"

Uncle Rada is one of the "four whips" of Sanlibu, and the questions Lin Fengjin asked are indeed the most authoritative answers he answered. So he hesitated for a moment and said:

"Two months, the most abundant grassland for aquatic grass, and it takes two months to recover after grazing. And that's just from May to October. ”

Lin Fengjin nodded and said:

"But I did an experiment a few days ago, cutting the grass on the grassland with a sickle, and then I looked closely, and found that the grass would grow back in at most half a month. Have you ever wondered the difference?"

Lin Fengjin's words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day that exploded in everyone's minds!!

They usually only know how to herd, hunt, fight, and live in the way that their ancestors have passed down from generation to generation, where have they ever thought about these problems? Or even if someone thought of it, how could they have Lin Fengjin's advanced knowledge to obtain a solution to this problem?

Looking at everyone's stunned, sluggish, or blank eyes, Lin Fengjin continued to throw out a fierce material:

"I once told Tuoba that if I had the chance, I would be able to make the Sanlibu no longer fear the threat of the white-haired wind in ten years, and everyone would have enough food and clothing, yes, I am not bragging, especially now that I am in the middle of the Sanlibu, I believe that this can be done! It doesn't even take ten years at all. ”

"And to do this, then first we have to figure out why Sanli will have no resistance in the face of the white haired wind's heavenly might!

When this sentence was said, everyone continued to be stunned and stunned, they really didn't understand what Lin Fengjin was talking about, but in their hearts, they didn't know what Lu Dao was talking about, but they felt that the mysterious Lin Gongzi in front of them was definitely not telling lies, although everyone couldn't understand what he said, they must know that what Lu Dao said was extremely powerful.

Lin Fengjin was obviously very satisfied with the reactions of the people present, and smiled:

"Why do I say this, it is because I have carefully observed these cattle and sheep that you have raised, and when they graze and graze, they not only gnaw and eat the grass leaves, but also pull out the grass roots and chew them together! This is the reason why the pasture after grazing will only recover after two or three months! If you can find a way to make them eat only grass leaves and not chew grass roots when they are grazing, then the pasture after grazing can go again in ten days and half a month!"

Lin Fengjin said that at this point, when he saw Uncle Lada, who was good at grazing, he left, and Lin De and a few people showed ecstasy and understanding on their faces, and said with a smile:

"If you don't understand at this time, you can ask your patriarchs. ”

In an instant, the atmosphere inside the entire felt bag became warm, and after about a cup of tea, everyone present looked at Lin Fengjin with almost admiration. However, after a while, the two of them, Radha and Li, discussed eagerly, and then Radha saluted Lin Fengjin before he said respectfully:

"Lin Gongzi, but we have no way to make these animals raised now only eat grass leaves, not grass roots, unless we mobilize manpower to cut grass, but in this case, manpower must be insufficient, and the amount of forage eaten by cattle and sheep every day is very amazing. Therefore, although we know the root cause of the disease, there is no way to solve it. ”

Lin Fengjin smiled and said:

"There's no way I can get the animals you're raising now to obediently stop eating the grass roots. ”

When he said this, a look of disappointment appeared on everyone's faces, but Lin Fengjin then smiled and said:

"It's just that I know that in the Western Regions, there is a kind of turtle sheep that only eats grass leaves and will not gnaw grass roots. ”

Lin Fengjin said this, and the whole felt bag was quiet for about a minute, followed by wild shouts and laughter! Lin Fengjin waited for them to have enough catharsis, and then took out a silver ingot and put it on the table.

"If this ingot of silver is a city built on the grassland. ”

Then he dipped some tea and made a circle outside the city:

"The area within this circle is the area of pasture that can be returned to the city in one day. If you follow your current way of grazing, it will take two months before you can graze again, so I have already calculated that this pasture can only support a tribe of less than a thousand people. ”

"However, under the condition that the area of the pasture outside the city remains the same, the place where the cattle and sheep have grazed only needs about ten days to graze again, so the total number of people that this pasture can support can reach more than 10,000 people!"

"Then consider that there are few cities on the grasslands, and once you succeed in building a city, the rest of the tribes, large and small, will often choose you when they trade, so you will also receive a considerable part of the taxes to make up for the economy. In the later stage, you can also build a Wu fort around the city, and near the Wu fort is to cultivate the fields, and you enter the stage of semi-herding and half farming, then the number of people who can live in the city can be multiplied. ”

All the Sanli tribesmen have a bright scene in front of their eyes, as long as they have encountered the white-haired wind and experienced the cold winter on the grassland, there is no one who does not expect to get rid of that terrible fate, but they can't walk the road of the Han people, they can only envy, they can only watch!

After the Sanli tribesmen calmed down a little, Lin Fengjin began to pour cold water on them:

"However, it seems that this matter is a very simple matter of introducing breeding sheep, why did I tell Linde, saying that it would take ten years to do this? And there are many people with high intelligence in Xirong and Dongxia, why didn't they consider this method? Could it be that they are all blind and deaf?" (To be continued......
