After a long time, this group of people gradually came to their senses and left the palace one after another and returned to the residences next to the south gate of China City.
The next day, these leaders who had participated in the banquet left the houses one after another and headed towards their own tribes.
Every move they made was reported to Hua Xi by the tribe, and Hua Xi naturally had to prepare it in the next few days.
Originally, according to Hua Xi's plan, the surrounding tribes, large and small, were gradually integrated into the water tribe. However, a few months later, the upcoming spring forced Hua Xi to take a risk.
The current population of the tribe is only about 500 people. Apart from the 200 executor troops, pottery making, bow and arrow making, gathering, and construction craftsmen, there is almost no extra manpower to do other work.
At present, in addition to the people of the own tribe, there are more than 300 young coolies living in China City who were exchanged from other tribes. There are also 400 to 500 people outside the city. When spring comes, these production forces of the Water Tribe will
They must return to their respective tribes in accordance with the verbal agreement. At that time, the various production works of the Water Tribe will inevitably have a great impact. Food is no longer an urgent issue for their tribe, because a large number of wild beasts will come out of the caves to look for food.
There is no other way. Hua Xi can only act as a magic stick again, hoping to scare these primitive people.
Hua Xi moved all 400 laborers from outside the city to live in the city, and built a large number of residential buildings to increase the patrols of the enforcers in the city to maintain public security and order. Fortunately, these primitive people are peaceful masters and work honestly.
, go to the ancestral temple to receive daily food
They are not interested in why they moved into China City from outside the city, and why the Shui Tribe built so many houses. They only know that working here is very different from working in the tribe. Not only can they learn how to build such
It is called a house where gods live, and the standard of living is much better than in the tribe. You can eat meat here every day. This is the most practical thing. It is not like starving all day long in the tribe before, which is difficult.
I would be hungry for several days before I could eat some minced meat.
Soon, after only five days, seven or eight tribal chiefs came over with a few tribesmen. Most of these tribes had dozens of people. Among the small tribes with hundreds of people, only two of them were members of the upper class.
However, Hua Xi did not mind this and instead held a grand sacrifice in the ancestral temple to welcome these tribal leaders.
Originally, a few of them were a little hesitant about the so-called divine revelation of joining the Water Tribe, but they were not very willing to join the Water Tribe. After all, if they joined the Water Tribe, they would be giving up the totems passed down through the ages, as well as the rights in their hands.
, I will be inferior to others from now on.
However, this group of people soon felt that they were greatly satisfied with their face during the welcoming ceremony of Hua Xi's ancestral temple sacrifice. Therefore, in the subsequent negotiations, after learning about the situation after joining the Youshui Tribe, they readily agreed to merge.
There is a sign from the water tribe
Because in addition to promising to treat their tribesmen equally and fairly as the original Shui tribe members, Hua Xi also promised to give them generous rewards and status.
After joining the Youshui Tribe, regardless of the number of people in their respective tribes, they will automatically become members of the tribe's core institution, the "House of Elders". As for what the House of Elders does, Hua Xi just said that after a period of time, it will be open to all members.
The people of the Water Tribe announced
According to the number of people in each original tribe, rewards will be given to the chiefs and elders of each tribe. Each tribe will have a large residence close to the core main buildings such as the palace, ancestral temple, and elders' house. In addition, they can also own private property. In addition to allowing their original servants,
, in addition, rewards range from ceramics to food, 10 servants, and livestock ranging from a few to dozens of heads.
Of course, in order to obtain benefits, they naturally have to give up some power. Except for the responsibilities and powers of the elders, they will deprive them of all other powers, and they must abide by the laws to be promulgated by the Water Tribe.
Although some clan leaders were deprived of their power, the tribe's food and clothing problem was solved while maintaining their own status and unknown power. Naturally, these tribal elders did not have much objection and readily agreed to join the Youshui Tribe.
After the decision was finalized, Hua Xi held a banquet in the palace to celebrate the peace. The group of people returned to their respective tribes one after another to pack up and announced to the tribe that they had joined the Youshui Tribe. The power and wealth of the Shui Tribe had long stimulated these full-blooded people.
The primitive people who had been devastated by nature, immediately after the announcement of the patriarch, the whole clan cheered and praised the patriarch's decision as a great decision. This adverse reaction instantly made these patriarchs feel ashamed, and also increased their confidence in their decision to join the gods.
The affirmation of the water tribe below
The 20 days passed quickly. During this period, in addition to the first seven or eight tribes that agreed to join the Youshui Tribe, dozens of tribe leaders came one after another to ask whether their tribes could join the Youshui Tribe.
After receiving some kind of treatment, or it can be said to be benefits, leave with satisfaction and then lead the tribe to join.
Hua Xi, Hua'an, Hua Feng and others were worried about the severe housing and security pressure caused by the rapid influx of people in the city. While they were busy, Elder Tukan sent a message to Hua Xi who was dizzy with work.
information
Among the tribes that have had relations with the Water Tribe, there are still some tribes that are unwilling to give up their rights and the totems they worship, and are unwilling to join the Water Tribe. Another situation is that some tribes are divided into two factions, one supports joining, and the other
The faction that opposes and supports joining is also bringing people on the way. The opposition group is either still living in the same place with their tribesmen, or they are leading their tribesmen to other places, and their destination is unknown.
It seems that not everyone is willing to give up what they have for food. Hua Xi feels that she still underestimates the people of this era. Fortunately, the losses are not big. Only a small number of people are leaving. Most people still yearn for food and escape.
cold
As more and more tribes join, the number of tribesmen rises sharply, crossing the population mark of 3,000. The huge China City that originally seemed empty gradually became lively after the influx of a large number of people. The 150,000-square-meter China City
With a population of over 3,000 people and an area of 45 square meters per capita, Chinatown can expand more buildings, develop more functions, and accommodate more people.
The influx of a large number of people has also caused the construction speed in the city to skyrocket. With the joint efforts of everyone, a large number of residential houses have been built and completed. As of that day, Huaxi is only the third one to enter the cold season.
