The 2849th Chapter Family Meeting (2)
(Bai Ling is not Qiao Ling at the end of the last one. I got used to it when I wrote it, and it has been corrected. The 6,000 words in this chapter are not divided into chapters)
The eyes of the elders of the clan hall and each hall fell on Xia Tuo. After these years, they had almost grasped Xia Tuo's temperament, and knew that he was different from the other bosses of the Bianhuang tribe.
"Patriarch, medicine is not divided into families. Witch doctors are a branch of witch medicine masters. With the current strength of Da Xia, it can be popularized and a corresponding perfect system can be established."
Qingliu then said aloud, as the only pharmacist in the tribe, she had done related matters with Qiao'er before, and the current Daxia is an enlarged version of the original Daxia tribe.
"Elder Feng, Elder Bai, how about the disciples who practice witchcraft in the academy?"
After pondering for a moment, Xia Tuo looked at the two old men.
"Patriarch, over the years, the school has continuously recruited seedlings with talent for cultivating witches in the territory. Now there are more than 1,000 witches in the clan, fully meeting the needs of the clan."
"Sorcerers, after being discovered by various cities, they were introduced to Qianlong Temple, and finally sent to the Academy?"
"yes."
Qiao'er nodded aloud, and continued: "All martial artists who go out to work in the clan have the right to recommend young talents with good talents, and they will also get some rewards or credits for it."
"High priest, you should invent a witch tool to test whether you have the talent for witchcraft, so that you can better popularize the practice of witchcraft in the territory. Right now, the process of recruiting young people with talent for witchcraft is cumbersome and consumes a lot of experience. , This matter is handed over to the Temple of Heaven and the Witch Court."
"yes."
"It's a bit far away, let's talk about the death rate of dolls."
Heaving a sigh of relief, Xia Tuo turned his eyes, and then said: "Is there any point in Lingzhou to replant medicinal herbs, elders?"
"No."
The elders in the temple responded one after another.
"Since this is the case, send an order to the Lingzhou tutelary mansion to order the slaves in Lingzhou to harvest the Lingzhou-grown Lingmi and start planting the relevant basic herbs."
Speaking of this, Xia Tuo looked at Qiaoling and said, "Bailing, how about entrusting this task to you."
"yes,
Braun must complete the task! "
Bai Ling's eyes sparkled with excitement, suppressing the excitement in his heart, he agreed.
"Planting medicinal herbs is just the simplest thing, and it will take a lot of effort to spread it to the entire territory in the future. In this way, witch hospitals are established in various cities. The secretary counts the pregnant women in each city, and protects the newborn and unborn babies in advance."
"Establish the Supreme Hospital in the clan, headed by Elder Jian Ling, assisted by Qingliu Wu Zun, to control the Wu Hospital."
"It also takes some time to grow medicinal herbs in Lingzhou. Although these herbs are common things, their growth cycle varies from several years to more than ten years, so we cannot rely on Lingzhou for the time being.
An order was sent to the lords of each city, and witch hospitals in each city were established, and the city lord's mansion donated money, and the required medicinal herbs were deducted from the taxes in each city. "
Xia Tuo's words were not fast, and he was thinking about gains and losses while speaking. It was true that Lingzhou began to plant medicinal herbs, but he also understood that it was impossible to feed back the entire Great Xia territory with the power of the Great Xia clan.
Even if the medicinal herbs in the land of Lingzhou are cultivated, their main function is to prepare them for emergencies. Otherwise, the huge territory of Daxia is enough to absorb all the resources of the tribe.
What's more, the medicinal herbs in Lingzhou are still in the discourse, and it will take a few years to really see the effect.
"Patriarch, Xiongyicheng concealed the number of spiritual fields and deliberately concealed the cultivation of spiritual rice. It has been investigated and is now preparing to screen the entire territory."
At this time, Elder Tu got up and said, the matter of being caught by the patriarch himself is of course urgent.
"It has been found out that the city lord of Xiongyi City is from a casual cultivator. He was retained as the city lord at the beginning. The clansmen in Tuntian Mansion were bought by him. The city captain is temporarily vacant, and You Yan is also from a casual cultivator."
When he said these words, Elder Tu lowered his head, a little fiery. In fact, this matter was a coincidence. According to the rules of the establishment of the city, although there are remaining casual cultivators as the city lord, they will also arrange for the clansmen of Daxia Go to the city to work as a supervisor.
But it was a coincidence that Lieutenant Xiong Yucheng died when he was besieged and suppressed the thugs, and the Clan Affairs Hall somehow dropped the city.
That's what happened, but it happened that Xia Tuo had nothing to do to wander around the territory, so he just arrived at Xiongyi City.
Hearing this, Xia Tuo's eyes flashed brightly, even daring to covet his rice, isn't this courting death?
"For this matter, the Clan Affairs Hall has an unshirkable responsibility, and the patriarch will punish him."
After listening, Xia Tuo whispered softly, "What is the Clan Affairs Hall going to do with it?"
"The City Lord Xiongyi, Yougu Mansion Youke, and Tuntian Mansion Tuntian Order have all been taken down, waiting for the patriarch to deal with them."
"I remember Tuntian Ling is a member of our clan."
"yes."
Elder Si Nong Dian Shao stood up with a livid face, she glanced at Xia Tuo, and said in a deep voice: "It's because the subordinates are not strict in discipline, and this thing happened."
"The inspection of the elders of the Clan Affairs Hall and the Sinong Hall is not strict, and the rank of luck is lowered by one rank."
"The chief culprit was beheaded and killed, and the territory was passed on. The Tuntianling family expelled the Xia clan, and exiled to the northern borderlands together with the owner of Xiongyi City and the Youjiao family."
"As for the City Lord, You Yan, and Cheng Wei of Xiongyi City, Elder Feng Xuegong will find a way to re-appoint the Tuntian Order by the Sinon Palace. This matter will be passed on to the Great Xia Territory."
"yes!"
Xia Tuo's voice was flat, and there was no sound of anger, which made the elders in the hall a little timid, not daring to touch the anger of the patriarch.
"In view of the matter in Xiongyi City, Elder Lu, from now on the Shadow Guard has the right to supervise the warriors in the inner city, and all tribes, big and small, can directly report to Xiage."
Hearing this, several elders in the hall all looked towards Elder Lu, and now the Shadow Guard's prestige became a bit stronger.
"Patriarch, all the city lords have written to reflect that the city lord's mansion is in charge of the power of the city. Although there are You Yan and the city captain as subordinates, they are still somewhat powerless."
Hearing this, Xia Tuo nodded slightly. The city system is in the process of continuous improvement, and the city lords reacted like this. This is very similar to the feudal system in the previous life.
The prefect of the prefecture and county system has multiple officials, who are in charge of affairs within the prefecture and county respectively. The Daxia city system is improved from the prefecture and county system. Some things are indeed interlinked. One person's power is limited after all. This is the world of martial arts. The city lord also needs to practice.
Today, in the city of Daxia, there are city captains who are in charge of military warfare, Youjiao who are in charge of law and order, Qianlong Temple who manages cultivation, witch courtyards that train and educate young people, and Tuntian Mansions that garrison fields.
But there is more than that in a city, each has its own division of labor, such as the establishment of a witch hospital, and the taxation after the promotion of spiritual field planting, etc.
After pondering for a while, Xia Tuo said aloud: "Which city masters have written letters?"
Elder Tu then took out a pair of animal skin scrolls and presented them to Xia Tuo.
After Xia Zhan opened it, he saw that there were quite a lot of people. After thinking about it, he continued: "In this case, each city will set up an inner minister to serve as the deputy of the city lord and share the responsibility of personnel and document delivery in the city."
"As for the selection of Inner Chancellor, select disciples from the Academy to fill up the gap. Don't rush to fill up the city areas slowly."
"Follow the order!"
"By the way, given that Daxia now occupies the northwest and north, and there are snakes and giant spirits in the south, it cannot be expanded for the time being. I plan to go east to the North Territory and expand the population of Daxia. What do you guys think?"
Northern Territory?
Hearing this, many elders in the entire hall were stunned, why did the patriarch's thoughts go to the Northern Territory.
The dispute over luck in the northwest of the frontier is not a secret to the elders of the clan. Xia Tuo would send some news to the elders of each hall a long time ago.
Therefore, the elders still have some understanding of the situation in the northwest. Otherwise, as the decision-makers of the Great Xia, how would they control the progress of the Great Xia.
"Patriarch, it is a good way to go east, but I heard that most of the land in the Northern Territory passes through the demon chaos. inconvenience."
"The land of the Northern Territory is millions of miles away, far away from the land of the Great Xia tribe, how can we hold our feet."
The elders in the hall expressed some problems with Xia Tuo's proposal. These are actual problems. The vast territory and sparsely populated areas are the most difficult places to control.
If not, Xia Tuo would not have gone out to look for the teleportation witch array when he occupied the Fire Spirit Clan. Although there is only one teleportation witch array in Tianhuo Dao now, it is this teleportation witch array that has played a great role. To put it bluntly It has deepened the stability of Tianhuo Dao.
"Elder Yin, what happened to the teleportation witch array?"
"Patriarch~"
When Xia Tuo asked this question, Yin Hong blushed. It is not difficult to transmit the witch formation, but it is not difficult for those who meet it. It is easy to understand it.
But the key point is that over the years, even though it has obtained several dilapidated teleportation formations, the witch courtyard has never understood the essence of the teleportation formations. On the contrary, it has spent more than 300,000 spirit crystals.
"Elder Yin, don't worry."
With the appearance of Yin Hong, Xia Tuo already knows how to play with eggs, and he is not a technical geek. In this world, witchcraft is the pusher for the development of the world, so he is even more of a layman.
He comforted Yin Hong a few times, even if he got angry without a thorough understanding, it would not help.
"Elder Gong, the flying boat has grown bigger and bigger these years, but its defense and attack power have not improved. What is the reason?"
"Ah~"
Hearing this, Elder Gong was taken aback for a moment. Since a few years ago, he has not personally controlled the armor building of the Forge Pavilion, but has specially handled the mundane affairs of the Forge Pavilion. The tribe is very supportive.
As the elder in charge of the cabinet, Elder Gong is still qualified, regardless of whether it is useful or not, he will go to his own cabinet twice. As for the elder who works for the welfare of the cabinet all day long, he is naturally supported by the people in the cabinet.
"The construction of the airship has been thoroughly understood. You can see that the clan has warships. It can completely integrate the dual attributes of airships and warships to create a large void ship. These~"
Saying that, Xia Tuo stopped talking, well, don't blame Elder Gong, if he was a barbarian native, I'm afraid he wouldn't have thought of this, it seems that he will think of another way next.
"Great Xia needs more flying boats. I saw the news from the Xia Pavilion that many families and tribes in the city area exchanged resources for flying boats from the clan, which shows that flying boats are very useful.
Right now, flying boats are only used for small-scale actions of warriors. This is not acceptable. The clan should use their brains more to create large void ships and underwater warships that can be used for combat. "
"yes."
...
This clan meeting lasted for more than half a day. With the end of the clan meeting, Xiage's edict followed. , to warn others.
The relatives of the Xiongyi City Tuntian Order were expelled from the Daxia Clan's land. If it is said that the palm hall lowered the rank of luck, then for the clan members, the Xiongyi City Tuntian Order's family was expelled from the Daxia Clan's land, which made many people feel the same.
A family of sixteen people from three generations were taken away from the clan's land under the eyes of everyone, crying and shouting.
"It deserves it. As a member of my Daxia tribe, I actually eat inside and outside, and dare to join forces with outsiders. Even if the patriarch doesn't give the order, I will blow the head of this bastard."
"This is a wake-up call for everyone. Every family must keep in mind that they can't be like the Shanmu family, eating inside and outside."
...
summer garden.
"Patriarch."
Luo was dressed in a black robe, his whole body was filled with cold and evil energy, and evil shadows manifested by black energy appeared within three feet of his body.
"The promotion to Wuzong failed?"
"yes."
Standing in front of Xia Tuo, Luo didn't hide anything, and nodded.
"I came here this time to let you go to Zhu Rongyu. There is a Nether Blood Mountain in Zhu Rongyu. It is rumored that it leads directly to the Netherland. It has existed since the last era. It is many times weirder than Linghe ghosts."
Hearing this, Luo's eyes showed a hint of interest. This kind of place is the place he is most looking forward to training. Don't look at the rank of luck that carries Daxia right now, but the rank of luck is an opportunity for other warriors, but To him it was irrelevant.
If it wasn't for the order from the clan to let him sit on Soul Mountain to guard against the Southern Bobu, he would have thought of a way to go out and travel, looking for cold and evil places.
He stood quietly, waiting for Xia Tuo's words, knowing that the patriarch hadn't finished speaking.
"The Nether Blood Mountain is the location of the teleportation witch array leading to the Zhurong Region in the clan. I originally wanted to build a city outside the mountain to attract warriors from all sides, but it is close to another big city. Once we build a big city here, it will definitely attract attention. .
If you gather a small tribe, it's not worth doing it, and it will attract attention when the tribe grows big, so you should go to Nether Blood Mountain to see if it is suitable for building a secret city. "
"The secret city?"
Regarding Luo's doubts, Xia Tuo explained: "Since we don't want to confront Zhu Rongyu's powerful forces, the more mysterious we are, the more afraid they will be.
So I am going to build a city in the depths of the Nether Blood Mountain to attract the strong to gather and collect some high-level spirits.
This city has high entry requirements and is not open to all warriors. Anyone who trespasses will die. This method is used to attract high-level warriors. "
The more people are not allowed to peep at the place, the more people will squeeze their heads and try to get in. Xia Tuo firmly grasps this kind of psychology. This is an idea he thought of not long ago.
Since it’s obvious that it’s not possible, let’s play dirty.
And when he was young, he got a few witchcraft skins from the slave owner, black and white impermanence, judge, these skins can be used.
Didn't Zhu Rongyu say that the Nether Blood Mountain is connected to the Nine Nether Lands, that there is impermanence in black and white, and the judge is naturally reasonable.
"Patriarch, I want to explore the Nether Blood Mountain first."
"Okay, go ahead, don't go deep if there is danger, let's think of other ways."
"I see."
Luo came and went in a hurry, left Xia Yuan, and set foot on the teleportation witch array to Zhu Rongyu.
call.
After taking a long breath, Xia Tuo rubbed his head.
At this time, Jian Ling came back, she had just discussed with Qingliu Wuzun and Bai Ling about the Tai Hospital, when she landed in the Xia Garden, she saw Xia Tuo sighing.
"What's wrong?"
When he came to Xia Tuo, Jian Ling asked softly.
"There is no teleportation witch array, and the traffic problem cannot be solved. It is difficult to win the Northern Territory."
"You don't often say that you have to eat one bite at a time. We are already big enough in Daxia now, and the land of the Northern Territory can take our time."
"Cave Heaven Holy Land is the great enemy. We know almost nothing about them. Right now they are integrating luck. Once it is completed, there is no way to know what kind of disputes will arise in the frontier, so we have to prepare early."
"If you don't go south now, you want to use snakes and giant spirits as a buffer zone."
Jian Ling rolled his eyes and said softly.
"It is precisely because of the mystery of the Holy Land that we have to guard against it. Snakes and giant spirits are easy to take down. What should we do after we take them down?"
Xia Tuo nodded. He didn't expect Jianling to guess it in his mind. He didn't know how to deal with the Dongtian Holy Land if he didn't make a move. So now he is thinking about strengthening his strength from other aspects to see if he can find a way to break the situation. way.
Compared with the Northwest Territory, the Bianhuang Northern Territory has no large tribes and cannot carry the luck needed for the Holy Land of the Cave Heaven, so their eyes will only fall on other places with large tribes.
These holy places need to support the puppet tribes. This is like trying to build a memorial archway after blocking the puppet. This is the best evidence that they have abandoned their identity as a human race.
If it is a human race, why can't it bear the fate of the human race, and instead look for puppets. From this, it can be seen that they are no longer the same as the human race, and they can't even carry the fate of the human race directly.
"Don't talk about this, have you discussed it with Qingliu?"
Hearing this, Jian Ling nodded, and responded: "There is already a simple plan, and the details need to be completed slowly."
Becoming the director of the Supreme Hospital, this position will bring great benefits in the future. The barbarian emphasizes inheritance and blood, and the Witch Hospital is to ensure that every citizen in the Great Xia territory can give birth to offspring safely.
If this was put in Xia Tuo's previous life, it would not be an exaggeration to call this practice the Buddha of all families. Of course, there is no Buddha in this world, and he is not very interested in Buddha.
Undoubtedly, if the development continues step by step, Jian Ling will be greatly blessed in this position.
"By the way, there are some other things. I found that the Lingmi planted in the city area, when paying taxes, the meters used are different in size."
When Jian Ling said this, Xia Tuo's eyes showed deep thought, and he forgot about it.
Books are in the same text, vehicles are in the same track, and unified measurement.
Putting it aside in the previous life, it was something that a student could just open his mouth.
Daxia has been committed to establishing a new system since the establishment of the clan, but there is no doubt that these years are on the way to cross the river by feeling the stones, and the documents presented by the various ministries are also messy.
Why did he forget to set up a complete set of rules, the same track is not necessary in the wilderness, but the book is the same, the measurement, and the calendar method should be implemented.
Now Daxia is no longer a small tribe living in a corner of the border barren, and they don't even know the year of the border barren.
According to the Chiming calendar, it is now the 43,839th year of the Chiming calendar, and he doesn't know the year of the Great Yin royal court.
But it is indeed necessary to implement the Chiming calendar, so that it will be much more convenient to search for various archives in the clan in the future, unlike the volumes presented by various urban tribes, which are very messy.
After pondering for a while, Xia Tuo decided to keep a low profile and implement the Chiming calendar, so that the records submitted by the clan can be traced.
As for the Great Xia Chronicle, it is better not to take the lead. It is easy to be taboo and be targeted by others, so the royal court dares to use the year name. How dare a small Xia tribe dare to risk the disgrace of the world.
Shu Tongwen, this matter is handed over to the Supplementary Palace to sort out, and then it will be placed in the martial arts academy to teach the new generation of teenagers. As for the current wave of people in the Daxia tribe, he chose to let them wither naturally and give up treatment.
The same weights and measures are also very important. Daxia promotes farming, and taxes need to be measured in buckets. There are also ores.
According to the rules of the Great Wilderness, the strength of a quasi-totem warrior is limited by a thousand jun, so it is not difficult to measure the weight of a jun.
The task of measuring the strength of Yijun was handed over to the Clan Affairs Hall and the Casting Pavilion, and they needed to create corresponding weights and measures.
...
Half a month later, Daxia successively issued several edicts to promulgate the territory.
In the territory of Daxia, the year will be counted according to the Chiming calendar from now on, which is the 43,839th year of Chiming, and it is divided into twelve months. The end moon is the first and the sacrifice month is the end. December.
All the vassal tribes and city documents of Daxia are counted on this basis.
Unify the weights and measures, with thirty jun as a stone and three jun as a bucket, instead of the original measurement between the cities and ministries, and adopt the new measurement and balance formulated by Daxia.
There is a witch hospital in the territory, which is dedicated to guarding newborn babies. All the people of Daxia should protect the young, and anyone who hurts children will be punished!
...
A few edicts suddenly overshadowed the exile of Xiongyi City's city lord and You Yan, and became a topic of discussion everywhere in the Great Xia territory.
Regarding the edicts issued by Daxia over the years, the clansmen living in the vast wasteland are actually very confused, because they have never seen these before, but people are not fools. Live better.
...
Xia Tuo couldn't hear the discussions in the territory, but he could feel that while these edicts were spreading throughout the territory, the luck on Tianlu Mountain skyrocketed again, and the purple air was thousands of miles away, shining like a rosy cloud.
At this moment, he was lying on his stomach in the stone pavilion in the summer garden, biting his fingers, and drawing something on the animal skin paper in front of him.
Of course, you don’t need to think about the proportions. What he drew is a big ship. The idiots of the Foundry Pavilion have been casting flying boats for so many years, but they can’t even do a little innovation. It really broke the heart of the patriarch.
So he was going to draw a picture to give the people a little divergent thinking.
There are bows and crossbows, witch robes, and formations on the big boat painted on animal skin paper. Anyway, it is just a patchwork of things.
But according to Daxia's current strength, with the suspension array and the foundation for building flying boats, it is absolutely possible to build flying warships.
It is big enough to fly, has rough skin and thick flesh, is resistant to beating, and can output violently.
Xia Tuo had these requirements.
