After Yan Mo said "just do it", Lie He Diao took a step back, took off his shirt on the spot, turned his back to Bing, and signaled to him that he could carry out the execution at any time.
Bing looked up, Yuan Zhan said directly: "Twenty lashes."
Yan Mo stood there and watched the execution process of Hunting and Diao.
The others saw that even Hunter and Eagle, who were as close to the leader as brothers, were punished, and none of them dared to take chances.
For the rest, Yan Mo didn't plan to look any more, wrapped up his coat and left, Yuan Zhan didn't stay behind either.
When Yan Mo left, he explained a few words to Ji, and Yuan Zhan didn't object when he heard it, so he simply asked Ji and Moth to supervise the matter, and Bing carried it out.
With grateful eyes, facing Yan Mo's back, he clenched his right fist on his heart and saluted solemnly until Yan Mo was gone.
He turned his head to face the crowd, and said the first sentence: "Master Priest sees that many of you are young, so I can't bear it, and I don't want you to freeze to death or starve to death if you are kicked out."
Everyone's eyes lit up, thinking that the priest would not drive them out of the tribe again.
But the second sentence shattered their illusions, "Except for the hunter and the eagle, the other leaders and stewards were punished with ten lashes each, and the rest were not punished. Clothes, weapons and private property can be taken away."
Although it broke their fantasy, the content of this punishment is much more lenient than what the leader said just now.
People are so strange, Yan Mo said at the beginning that they can take away all their private property, and they still feel wronged. When Yuan Zhan said that not only were they not allowed to take anything away, but they were also stripped naked and whipped, Yan Mo said the same thing again, and they immediately began to think that the priest was really kind.
The matter was settled like this, and except for a very small number of people who originally thought the priest and the leader were cruel, most of them began to think of the little priest at this time, and they became even more shameless and refused to leave the inner city.
The bloody and single people did not go home, and left with only the clothes on their bodies and the weapons in their hands, not even food. Before leaving, they clearly stated that they would hand over all the things at home to the tribe.
There are also those who feel sorry for their family members and are reluctant to let their family members endure hardships with them. They only bring food for two or three days, and leave the rest to their families.
Some felt that they were wrong and felt sorry for the tribe and their families, and there were also those who were cheeky and ransacked their homes, and even those who were even thicker went to the homes of acquaintances and asked for more food to take away.
But no matter what these people did, none of them insisted on taking their family members away, and those who wanted to follow were persuaded to stay in the inner city.
Regardless of whether these people are reluctant to let their families go out with them to endure hardships, or they want someone to stay in Jiuyuan so that they will not be completely cut off, this makes Yan Mo's impression of these people better.
After this expulsion, the people of the tribe not only did not become chaotic, but became more solidified. The newcomers who thought it would take a long time to impress them also changed their previous numbness and passivity, and became active and wanted to integrate into the life of the tribe. .
Although women are often synonymous with trouble, when a large number of women work together to do something well, the atmosphere of the entire tribe can change. This is probably the reason why any tribe cannot lack women, not only because they can reproduce, but also because women seem to have an innate ability to reconcile the atmosphere and make life better. They can make your mood and life worse. , It can also make you feel like living in paradise.
There was a lot of laughter in the tribe, and busy women could be seen everywhere. They worked hard to learn the common language, built a good relationship with the Jiuyuan people who stayed in the city, and worked hard to do any work they could do.
Yuan Zhan also really let Sand Wolf and her men be responsible for training those women, making sure that they have the ability to protect themselves in a short period of time, and began to teach them how to learn bows and arrows.
The women probably didn't expect that they could not only exercise like men, but also get in touch with powerful weapons. They all studied hard, and few of them were tired.
Yan Mo felt that this had a lot to do with the fact that these women hadn't accepted the feudal dross of his original world. Even if they felt that they were weaker than men, they didn't feel that they were born to watch their children cook, clean, and mend, let alone They are delicate, but most of these women from several savage tribes are also good at hunting.
The most prestigious of these women are all from the matrilineal clan. In the matrilineal clan, many women do the same work as men, so naturally they don't feel that warrior training is a difficult task.
With food plentiful, the changes in these women and children became more apparent every day.
Some people in Jiuyuan were worried about whether these women would be well-fed, but Yan Mo didn't think it was a problem.
Most of these women may be very simple because of their living environment, but they are not without brains. They will also tell the difference between how the previous Mogan treated them and how Jiuyuan treated them.
Jiuyuan was not strict with them, they could leave whenever they wanted, but no one said they wanted to leave Jiuyuan, and no one wanted to run away.
Don't they want to go home? No, some of them also want to go home, but they also understand that it is impossible for them to have the chance to go home again in this life.
Distance, weather, and various dangers in the wild all make their desire to go home a luxury, and many of them even don't remember where their home is or how to get back.
Since there is no possibility of going home, it is better to live a good life now.
What's more, the tribe of Jiuyuan is completely beyond their imagination, no matter the size or environment of the city, not to mention their original tribe, even a big tribe like Morgan can't compare with it.
Such a wealthy tribe, even if they are slaves here, may live a much better life than some of their original tribes.
What's more, Jiuyuan is a tribe without slaves. What's even more amazing is that it is not a matrilineal clan, but it respects women equally and regards women and men as equal. Women are no longer consumable items here, they are no longer used as sex slaves, food, reproductive tools, and barter.
What reassures them even more is that this tribe has a kind priest who is favored by the ancestor god! He turned Jiuyuan into a completely different vibrant tribe that they had never seen before.
The more than 800 women settled down to live, which also solved a lot of the labor crisis caused by the expulsion of more than 100 people.
First of all, the more than 500 children and other orphans in the tribe don't have to worry about being taken care of by others. Those women took the initiative to allocate a part of their staff to take care of these children and take good care of them every day.
Secondly, the livestock such as cattle and sheep were also specially fed, cleaned and cared for. At least these animals were not allowed to freeze to death due to the cold weather.
Furthermore, raw materials such as flax and cotton in stock gradually turned into semi-finished or finished products.
Yan Mo handed the loom sent by Morgan to Sa Yun and others, and asked them to integrate it with Jiuyuan's existing loom, combining the advantages of the two to create a new loom, which is now used by women. The most important thing is the new spinning wheel and new loom, and they also learned how to play cotton without a teacher.
Sure enough, women's wisdom in life is infinite, it just depends on whether you are willing to discover it.
Needlework, weaving, cooking, and even papermaking, many things that people are so used to and look inconspicuous, are actually mostly invented by women, but they hide in the back house and have no chance to show it, and no one remembers what they make Their first and surnames only spread slowly, and over time they became common things that are widely known.
Yan Mo decided to squeeze out the creativity and hands-on ability of these primitive people as much as possible.
Papermaking, pottery making, carpentry and soil heating, he doesn't care whether these primitive people can understand it, he throws it out first, and anyone who is interested can study it. It's not difficult knowledge, as long as you give some tips and try a few times, you can always find the trick.
And Yan Mo himself finally made the catgut that he had been thinking about for a long time this winter. It also let the Jiuyuan people and dwarves know that the muscles and internal organs of animals can not only be eaten, but also made into other useful things.
One winter passed, Yan Mo rose from the fourth level of the blood warrior to the fifth level, and the inheritance of the bone refining clan also learned the second half of the fifth level.
Yuan Zhan is still the same. In order to avoid the explosion of energy, he has rarely used his abilities and put a lot of energy on training his mental strength.
More than two hundred savages, apart from children, barely looked like soldiers, and could understand and speak some simple lingua franca.
When the ice and snow melted, more than a dozen newly formed families appeared in the tribe, which made the original bachelors living in the outer city and those who were kicked out very envious and jealous.
Speaking of this, I have to explain one thing. There are four major forces in the outer city, the dwarves, the original people, the Jiuyuan people who were expelled, and the Ge who agreed to move into the outer city after the original war and Yan Mo at the coldest time. Lanma people.
These four forces are also very interesting. They are all concentrated in the West Outer City, but I don’t know who ordered it or accidentally. The Jiuyuan people who were driven out occupied the southernmost land. Nestled between the two largest dwarven tribes, the Granmar mingle with the dwarves of the Felolo and Momo.
As a result, the west outer city formed such a distribution of forces from south to north: the original Jiuyuan people led by Hunter and Eagle, the Momo tribe, the Yuanji people, the Luoluo tribe, the Granma tribe and other dwarf tribes.
It is not for nothing that these people live in the outer city. Whether they build their own houses or ask Jiuyuan or the dwarves for help, they must pay the land lease fee and poll tax to Jiuyuan. Items, etc. to pay.
They can still understand the land rental fee. They didn't understand the poll tax until Yan Mo gave an explanation.
"Of course you have to pay for the land lent to you to build a house or to live in. But you don't just live here, you also need to hunt, water, and live near Jiuyuan. Don't you have to pay for these things? Is it? This is the poll tax, not only you, but even your own people recognized by Jiuyuan have to pay the tax."
Diao couldn't help but ask: "How much do my own people pay? How much do outsiders pay?"
Yan Mo answered honestly: "My own people don't have to pay taxes for the first three years, and after three years, every adult has to pay taxes. At that time, the actual situation will be treated according to the actual situation, and the tax rate will vary. There is no tax exemption for outsiders who live here. Everyone, regardless of age Men and women, you have to pay one hundred first-level Yuanjing coins every year. If you don’t have Yuanjing coins, you can exchange food or items of the same value. There is an additional rental fee.”
The outsiders who heard, "..."
Yan Mo smiled, "You can also choose to leave Jiuyuan's sphere of influence. At present, from Dahe to the south to Jiufeng's lair is my Jiuyuan's territory. As long as you live in this land, you have to follow Jiuyuan's rules. .”
"When did you occupy such a large area?" The dwarf jumped up.
"Wherever our soldiers can go, our sphere of influence will reach." No matter whether it is recognized or not, we must occupy the place first, anyway, it is just a matter of erecting a boundary marker.
this is okay too? Don't you think it's too shameless? The representatives of the major forces who stayed here remained silent for a long time. Yuanji and the expelled Jiuyuan people didn't respond to this fee or that fee, and the dwarves and the Granma tribe couldn't make a quarrel even if they wanted to.
On the fifth day when the ice and snow began to melt, Ramon brought more than two hundred mermaid warriors to swim down the river, saying that he would help Jiuyuan expand the river behind the priest's residence into a lake.
Yan Mo agreed, thinking that Yu Wu was really cautious. After thinking for a whole winter, he finally made up his mind to let him try to solve the mermaid's fertility problem.
Yu Wu is not here, if he is, he will definitely tell Yan Mo, not because he wants to be cautious, but because their patriarch Hai Sen thinks too much.
In fact, digging a lake is easy for Yuan Zhan to do with his fingers, but he just ignored it and let the mermaids carry tools to do it. The excavated mud was not wasted, and it was carried away by Jiuyuan soldiers and spread in the designated fields.
Ramon didn't dare to instruct Yuan Zhan to work. Seeing that the Jiuyuan people refused to help, he had to add another 300 mermaid fighters, which speeded up the speed of opening the lake.
