MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 149
As soon as the five decisions were issued, they aroused enthusiastic responses from all quarters.
People at different levels have very different attitudes. For other small tribes, they can only survive in the cracks between the cities and towns of the Phoenix Kingdom in the future.
Although the attitude of Phoenix towards other tribes is as friendly as ever. But now the momentum of the reunification of the Eastern Wilderness is getting stronger and stronger, I am afraid that they will not escape the fate of being unified in the future.
But these are not something they can worry about.
Sang Yu still has a consistent attitude of "no offense, no offense, no offense", and did not make too many promises.
For the nobles of the three tribes, some of these decisions were like a bolt from the blue.
The abolition of slavery meant that they needed to farm and hunt by themselves, to support their families, and to have no one at their beck and call.
The slaves who used to symbolize their wealth have also changed into civilians who are equal to them.
But losing privilege and wealth is not an unacceptable thing compared to beheading.
The direct relatives of the leaders of the two tribes of Shenhuo were all beheaded. This is the end of their provocation of the Phoenix tribe to send troops to Heishan to provoke troubles. In the pit forest to dig copper ore.
After undergoing labor reform, they can only be released after passing the test.
Anyone who attempts to rebel is a crime of treason and will be killed without mercy.
At the beginning, Yu spent more than half a year looking for copper grass flowers, the source of copper mines found in the forest in Tiankeng. Mining has not yet been carried out due to insufficient manpower, and it just comes in handy at this time.
In the future, no matter which dynasty it is, gold and silver will be the absolute currency in circulation, and Sang Yu naturally needs to make some preparations in advance.
Now that the main leaders of these three tribes have been determined, it is necessary to select new capable people to serve as managers at all levels to assist the leaders in management and transformation.
Although Bahe is far away from Xindi, it used to be the most affluent place in the Eastern Desolation, with a certain production base and a large population. Compared with other small tribes, there are more challenges but more opportunities.
The SHKP area will be closer to the sea, and there will be great development in transportation and trade in the future. But Bahe is an area closer to the central part. It has a vast territory and rich products, and can carry out large-scale agricultural planting. Even Sangyu has a plan to build a national capital here.
Many people have also realized the geographical advantages of the Bahe area, and they are eager to try, wanting to stay here to display their ambitions and achieve a career.
In the previous crusade against the three major tribes, almost everyone was transferred here. Now that the war is over, it is time to go back.
Sangyu Mingyan, Daxue, Heke and others returned to the town under their jurisdiction ahead of schedule.
Yu stayed with a thousand soldiers to guard the field.
Others who want to be team leaders here should submit an application immediately. After the application is approved, they can stay and participate in the management of the selection of the management of the three towns of Bahe. Sangyu naturally prefers this group of people in Xindi. They all went to school, and they have spent a long time with her, and they have been influenced more deeply, and their culture and thinking level are relatively more advanced.
Sang Yu finally selected 200 advanced elements to stay and distribute them to various tribes. The rest immediately returned to the original site and continued to build their homes.
Because the local conditions are different from those in Xindi, private ownership has already taken shape here. Therefore, the land distribution system is directly implemented, first the household registration is registered, and the cumbersome large families are divided into small households, and then the land is distributed according to the population of each household.
Including newborns, each person can be allocated three acres of land. Later, according to the increase in productivity, the amount of land per capita can be adjusted.
As long as you are a living person, regardless of disability or pain, you must have land if you have a household registration.
Land annexation is prohibited. If a person dies, the land must be recovered.
If the land was not enough, a wasteland reclamation team was set up to carry out land reclamation, and the reclaimed land was divided one by one.
Unify the currency and introduce the currency system of Xindi to every small town in Phoenix Country. Regardless of the type of work, the wage system is adopted, and paper money is also used for trade transactions.
For the three towns of Bahe, the land is their greatest guarantee. People can rely on the land to live. Before the land was not enough to develop, the speed of land reclamation could not keep up temporarily.
You can first join some production teams organized by the authorities, such as construction teams, production teams, and breeding teams. You can earn a salary of 100 yuan a month, and you can also buy food.
Grain is transported from Xindi, and a supply and marketing cooperative is set up in each small town, and the grain can be purchased with wages.
Since the allocation of land for farming began in the second half of the year, the people have no food in their hands, no wages for work, and no way to live. The authorities will give each family a certain amount of food as a subsidy. When the food is harvested at the end of the year, farmers will start saving If there is surplus food, the authorities will not continue to subsidize it.
The construction team also recruited a large number of workers, first to build houses for people, and after the houses were built, they began to build roads.
The main road from the Black Mountain tribe to the small towns of Bahe.
The road from Xindi to Zhangshan (the center of the alliance) has been repaired long ago, and the road from Zhangshan to Heishan Tribe has also been repaired in sevens and eighties. When the road to Bahe is completed, the traffic arteries of the entire Phoenix Kingdom will be unimpeded.
The lives of the people in Shennv Town, Huolong Town and Xuangui Town have undergone earth-shaking changes, and everyone was panicked at first.
But after a month or two, after the land and houses were allocated one after another, everyone couldn't help but smile. It seemed that things were not as bad as imagined.
Chu Qiu, Chang's fourth son, surrendered to his father and brother during the Phoenix team's battle against the various tribes in Bahe, and avoided being implicated by Chang. An ordinary citizen of Goddess Town.
His wife is the Nth daughter of the eighth wife of a little elder in the God Tribe, and she is also unpopular. The two married and gave birth to a son, who is only five months old now.
The family behind him is one of the reasons why he decided to surrender.
Fortunately, Chang was not a loving father, and he was just a child born to a woman who was taken captive. His brothers wanted his life many times, so he might as well exchange their lives for the lives of his family.
With the addition of hugging Shuyu's thigh, his life gained a new life, and he was assigned a job as the deputy captain of the construction team, and his life was not bad.
It was October weather, neither hot nor cold. He got up early, filled the tank with water, and prepared to go to the construction team to oversee the work.
His wife Fang also got up early to breastfeed the child.
Mother Miao Ji was making breakfast in the kitchen.
While stirring the porridge on the stove, Miao Ji asked: "Where is the house built now? When will we reach our eighth group? The thatched roof will not last this winter."
Their current houses are temporarily allocated thatched cottages, and they will live there for a while.
"Your Majesty has issued an order. The three towns in Bahe must have their houses built before mid-November this year, and everyone will move into their new houses before the snow falls. Hurry up, we will arrive in our eighth group in half a month." .”
"Your Majesty's words are enough, let's wait..." Fang next to her coaxed the child and said, "I went to Yingji's place with my mother yesterday, and the houses in their five groups have all been repaired and moved in." Once inside, the earthen walls are covered with red tiles, so the rain won’t come in, and the house has a toilet, which is really convenient.”
Chu Qiu said with a smile: "I went to Xindi before, and the walls of their houses are all made of green bricks, which are stronger than earthen walls. Even if it rains, they will not collapse. Unfortunately, our town has too many people, and the bricks are too heavy. If it can’t be burned, the earthen house will be built first.”
"Is it the kind of green bricks in the administrative center? When I went to work in the field earlier, Min and I walked over to have a look. Those bricks are hard to knock on, as hard as stones. They are square and square. They are really good for building houses. "
"Just wait, maybe we can live in a house with blue bricks and red tiles in the future."
"Hey, the kind of earthen walls right now are good enough to keep out the wind and rain. It's better than the ones we used to live in. Besides, Yingji is the mayor's mother. She can live in an earthen house, but we can't?"
"You just like to compare yourself with Yingji and her family. Living on your own, what can you compare to?" Chu Qiu scolded his mother while fetching water for the house.
"Where can I compare with her, I'll just say it casually..." Miao Ji denied it flatly, "What's the comparison? Their family only has two or six acres of land, and our family plus Xiaobao has twelve acres of land. Acres of land, I have nothing to compare with her."
Chu Qiu knew his mother's temperament, she was a bit vain, but her heart was not bad, and she couldn't cause any trouble.
Moreover, she and Yingji are both Chang's wives, and they are in the same situation. Now that the old times have fallen, two old sisters can have a place to talk together.
Yingji is not only Shuyu's mother, but also the mother of General Yu, the founder of the Phoenix Kingdom. It is not a bad thing for my mother to befriend her.
After Fang finished feeding her son, she stuffed him into Chu Qiu's arms and said, "Go kiss your father, and I'll go to work later, so I won't see you until evening."
Chu Qiu looked at the big fat boy in his arms, opened his mouth and smiled, he looked exactly the same as the lonely young man who went to the Phoenix Tribe to exchange weapons with Sang Yu, and saw him teasing his son with his scumbag stubble , the little guy had to giggle.
"The wheat is jointing now. My mother and I have weeded the weeds. Don't play football tomorrow weekend, and fertilize with us."
"If I go to work with Xiaobao on my back today, your work will be easier." Chu Qiu said.
The ten or so acres of land in the family are occupied by mothers and wives, and I can only go to work with them on weekends. They also have children, which is also very hard.
Fortunately, despite the hard work, there are grains planted in the fields. When the harvest is good, the seeds borrowed at the beginning will be returned to the town, and the rest will be chewed by the family. Next year will not be sad.
"How can a man go to work with his children behind his back?" Miao Ji refused without even thinking about it.
"Mum, you haven't seen it. Several men in our construction team have taken their children to work together. The baby center has not yet been built. Sometimes the family is too busy, and the children have no one to take care of them. Could it be thrown in the ground?"
As long as Miao Ji can remember, women have taken care of children. Now I hear that men are going to be sent to work by their children, but it can't be changed for a while.
On the other hand, Fang on the side relieved the encirclement and said: "You can take it with you when you are older, but now he still needs to breastfeed. Where can you find food for him after half of the work is done? I work in the field behind my back, and when I cry If you can have milk, you won’t delay things.”
Chu Qiu thought about it and gave up, and even if he was the team leader, it was not as simple as standing next to the supervisor with his arms crossed, running up and down, coordinating in various ways, and having to work with him, it was not that easy.
The porridge here is also cooked, and Miao Ji puts it on the table bowl by bowl. The millet porridge is steaming and fragrant for a few nights.
"According to me, this day is pretty good. Don't worry about anyone trying to harm us. If it were the past, Xiaobao might not be able to survive."
"Mum, this is all in the past, so don't think about it." Chu Qiu held the child and fed him two spoons of porridge.
Of course he knew what his mother was thinking. In the days before, he had had enough of worrying and relying on others.
He changed the subject and said, "In the past few town meetings, I have been praised several times in a row. The team leader may have to be transferred back to the new place. If there is no accident, I will be promoted."
When the other two women in the room heard what she said, their faces showed joy.
"This is really great..." Miao Ji murmured with tears in her eyes.
Chu Qiu nodded and said, "But it hasn't been decided yet, so don't talk about it outside."
For him, the present day really has hope. Although he could have a few slaves under his command in the past, it was because of his status as Chang's son.
To put it nicely, Chang is the father of this body.
To put it bluntly, he is a rapist.
Taking one woman after another from the surrounding tribes as wives is not a crime.
Soon after Chu Qiu finished his porridge, he went out to work, leaving the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to continue gossip.
Miao Ji thought about it and said, "Now that women in the town can be in charge of the house, I still feel like a dream. I need to talk to Ying Ji more, otherwise I won't be able to keep up with the times."
Just then, a voice came from outside the door.
"Fang, have you gone to the ground yet?"
Fang looked at the door. It was the Min family next door.
"I just finished eating, and I went out later, why are you so early today, have you had breakfast yet?"
Min's son was only eight months old and was carried by her husband Lu on his back.
The husband and wife are each carrying a hoe, and their trouser legs are also rolled up high.
The husband and wife were originally slaves, but after the slavery system was abolished, they were allotted a field, next to Chu Qiu's family.
The two shared six acres of land, including the children. There was no one in the family to take care of the children, and Min was too busy to take care of the children by herself. Lu did not participate in the recruitment work in the town, but farmed at home. .
"We also eat porridge. I heard that in half a month, we will be able to live in a new house!" Min looked excited.
Their house was made of temporary thatched grass, which was much worse than that of Chu Qiu's family.
But now that he is free and has land again, his life is full of motivation, and he can't stop smiling from ear to ear every day.
"That's what my guy said in the morning, and it seems that it's almost here."
"That's really great. We'll move to a new house. There won't be much work in the fields at that time. I plan to ask Lu to sign up to open up wasteland for a few days to earn a little money. After the wheat is harvested, I will go home and work on the fields. live."
Land reclamation and construction teams have temporary workers, who can be paid on a daily basis. Although there are not as many regular workers, they are still enough to make ends meet, and they can stop and work as they please. Don't be too friendly to farmers like them.
"Your family Lu Ke is really capable, and this year will definitely not be bad."
After hearing this, Lu smiled innocently from the sidelines.
Min said: "It's okay, I can't do anything else, just try my best. I heard that the infant and child center will be opened next year. At that time, the children can be sent there. I am thinking about applying to work there and take care of my children together. , and still get paid, Fang, do you want to come with me?"
"I heard that you need to know how to read, and none of us can read." Fang hesitated.
"Isn't there evening school and weekend classes? We'll go there later. It's not difficult to read. I see those three or four-year-olds can read after a few days. We don't remember them better than them."
Seeing Min's smug look, Fang couldn't help but be moved.
"Alright, let's go when the work in the field is over. If I can't learn well, I don't have to go to the infant and child center. Anyway, there are other jobs in the town, so I don't have to find someone who can read."
"Okay, let's go and have a look first."
While chatting with her, Fang neatly tied the child to her back.
"This child's suspenders are really good. I heard that your majesty came up with it, and let the garment workshop produce it."
"Your Majesty knows everything. They used to say that she is a **** from the sky. I think she is. Unfortunately, she is very busy. I only saw her once from a distance. She is so beautiful. I hope she can live in Bahe for a longer time. I want to see her." Find a special time to visit her."
Fang pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Now that life is getting better, everyone knows that Your Majesty is doing well."
"Of course, Your Majesty is our family's great benefactor. Without her, we would not be living like we are now. We have fields, land, houses, houses, food and clothing. I heard that there are many novelties in Xindi. Xinba Avenue has been repaired, how about we go to Xindi to see?"
When it comes to Xindi, Fang, who has always been calm, can't help being a little excited.
"Okay, the last time Qiu came back from a meeting, he said that the king said that the Xinba Avenue will be repaired within two years, and post stations and patrols will be built along the road. There are horse-drawn carriages departing from the two places every day, so that everyone can go whenever they want. go."
"Wow, I'm not afraid of bandits and robbers along the way. Even if it's dark, I can sleep in the station. That's great. We'll be the first batch of people from the Bahe area to go to Xindi. Bring my Dabao and yours with you. Xiaobao together."
"Okay, okay, let's go, go to the ground first."
