Chapter 288: Tranquility before the storm? (1/2)
In the afternoon, Chief of the Granma Tribe, who had been in a state of onlookers, the very beautiful girl took two of her tribesmen to the stone platform and conveyed to Zheng that the Granma Tribe also wanted to join the Jiu Yuan.
She did not make a provisional decision on her own, and her tribesmen had been discussing it for a long time. Last winter, they voted to join the Jiu Yuan, but they never had a good chance to talk to Jiu Yuan chief and priest. Later, when many women came to see the Jiu Yuan, the Granma Tribe, who had more women than men, hesitated.
A few days ago, they watched the Jiu Yuan's Priest unexpectedly ride on a huge bone bird with so many strong warriors coming down from the sky. Her Tribesmen urged her to go to Zheng to say that they wanted to join The Jiu Yuan.
Today, she heard with her own ears that the scale of The Jiu Yuan that has already been formed, and the division of responsibilities among them is something that she had never thought of before. There are so many warriors that even women and girls are trained as warriors. She may not know much, but she always feels like this here is like the legendary Three Cities.
When she watched in the morning, she found that the Jiu Yuan broke up all the Tribesmen at the time of compilation, which made her hesitate a little again. But when she looked back, she finally decided that the Tribesmen were eager for stability, strength and strong man's face.
Moreover, she also knew that if they did not take this opportunity to join in again, just as now the Jiu Yuan had a large number of warriors and women become scarce, their advantages would be even less in the future. Besides, it would not be a good thing to always live outside the tribe of others. It would be better to simply join the Jiu Yuan and become the real Jiu Yuan. The people.
Zheng brought the matter to his attention.
Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan had expected this and did not delay, so they agreed on the spot.
Yan Mo is satisfied with The Granma Tribe. There are nearly 300 people in this tribe, more women than men, and more than 80% of men and women are legitimate laborers because of their quick escape from the Lizard men. A little longer than two or three years they can also be used. Most importantly, this Tribesmen has a good character, generous and bright, they are disturbing and the always know the right and the wrong, and has the very carefree members.
When people heard that the Granma Tribe had joined the tribe, they set off a climax. Many of these young and middle-aged men, who were single, had been coveting those girls for a long time, and even many of them had conspired with them and had children.
That evening, Wu Chen handed Yan Mo the latest compiled data.
”Shifu, more than 200 wild people who previous lived in The Stone Forest Tribe said they will join The Jiu Yuan, and they will not go back to The Stone Forest Tribe land again.”
[1] The Stone Forest Tribe is that tribe which was nearly killed off by the Lizard men.
Yan Mo nodded. There was coal under the stone forest caves. He had no intention of letting the savages go back at all. He said that they would leave at will, but just catch them. These people have lived in The Jiu Yuan for half a year, and now you drive them away, they probably won't leave.
Yuan Zhan took over the slate and looked at it. Now he knows a lot of words. If he can't understand them, he asked Yan Mo.
Wu Chen was more intimate and reported the data directly: ”The Stone Forest wild men and The Granma Tribe are also included. At present, the total population of The Jiu Yuan is 4805 people. There are 1583 women over twelve years old, 2250 men over twelve years old, 827 child warriors over six years old and under twelve years old, 90 children under six years old and 55 old people who can't work at all.
Wu Chen took out another larger slate. ”This is the list of leaders at all levels.”
Yan Mo did not answer, he pointed to the wall opposite the conference room. ”See that schematic diagram, there is a box under each job. You fill in all the names of all the people according to their duties one by one.”
Wu Chen turned his head and his eyes were bright. There was a top-down pyramid structure. The structure of the whole tribe was clear at a glance, and it was easy to remember as to who is above who and who reports to who, ”Yes.”
Yuan Zhan looked at the heavy slate and frowned. ”It's almost time for the dwarfs to discover their ruins,” he said to Yan Mo.
Wu Chen curious, dwarf ruins place? Where? What's in it?
Yan Mo almost forgot about it. He also looked at the slate and laughed, ”It's really time they found it.”
It doesn't matter whether there are papers or not. But now the population is nearly 5,000, the paperwork in all aspects has increased dramatically, and the need of professors and teachers has made it necessary to advance the production of papers.
Yuan Zhan intends to take his the priest to arrange the place in a few days.
Yan Mo also told Wu Chen a few things, ”You may have a hard time these days. One is the alternation between the old and the new work, and the other is the most trivial thing at the beginning. There must be many people who have doubts. They can't come directly to chief and me. Nine out of ten they will come to you asking. In this case, you can deal with any issue that arise. If you are not sure or unable to give an answer, write it down and come to me every evening.”
Wu Chen answered meticulously, ”Yes.”
Outside there was a knock at the door, and as Yan Mo had told him to leave the square in the afternoon, all the latest members of the tribe came out.
Yuan Zhan raised his hand and let everyone in. Although the structure is complete, but what to do and how to do better, because most of these people have no experience, they need Yan Mo to help them sort out.
The next day, the whole tribe of The Jiu Yuan was busy, with figures running around and shouting at each other. Many people were carrying bags and small bags, and almost all of them were busy moving.
In the end, leaders at all levels, big and small, had to hold up their trumpets and shout, ”Don't bring everything into the barracks! Covering, clothing, weapons and utensils, the tribe will provide them all!!”
”Later we will check at the barracks. If we find too many things, we will throw them out! You! That big man! Why do you carry so many bones? Wherever you put them, you are not allowed to bring these bones into the barracks.”
The big man froze forward, and was reminded that he still had a blank face. He could not understand The Jiu Yuan common language.
Although Priest DRen said all these things yesterday, not everyone can remember that even if they remember, they will not give up all their property, even if it is only a few bones or some stone utensils.
More savages listen to the background music with hoa.r.s.e and exhaustive shouts from leaders at all levels, unlock the only skirt or temporarily twist a little straw rope, trying to bring all the personal property acc.u.mulated during this period into the barracks.
There was a savage man with a snake more than one meter long on his neck. It was alive!
There are also savages who can't tell where they belong until now. They chase their acquaintances and ask, ”Where am I supposed to be?”
Seeing that many people can't tell the north from the west, even the right from the left, the leaders have to work hard to climb up the high ground again, waving and shouting at their voices: ”The first Battalion of the first regiment all concentrated here!”
”The Second Battalion regiment come over here!”
”Hey you! You're on our battalion. What are you running to the women's barracks for?”
Zheng and five other regiment leaders stood on the wall and shook their heads. ”It's too messy. It's better to let people go to their respective residences then pick up people directly from them.”
Zhang chuckled. ”It's not that you want to see the ability of those low-level leaders, so you can't make it clear. Let them arrange it by themselves, as long as they are in...”
Zhang looked up at the sky on a high stone terrace in the middle of the Inner City Square. He had good vision. He could see clearly the grid and pointer indicating the time of the Wen Tian Sun and Moon dial. ”As long as all of them were arranged in their barracks before 11:00 noon,” Zhang said.
Bue looked at the city, looked at it, and praised it with his eyes. ”It's so good, who has the ability to even imagine this could be like this at a glance. Who is the junior leader standing in front of the 300 Duo Fei slave hut? I remember him as The Awu Tribesmen?”
Meng is most familiar with The Awu Tribesmen. Looking carefully, he affirms, ”That kid's name is Zhu Neng, The Awu Tribesmen, he is a 2nd rank warrior.”
Bue praised him: ”he is very clever. He takes people there to pick up people directly. When he receives a batch, he lets them take a batch to back to the regiment barracks. When there's no one else, he goes to another place of residence. He's probably afraid those people don't know him and have red feathers on their heads.
Zheng and Zhang both opened their mouths and asked, ”Which regiment is that?”
Shen-Gu has a slight smile on his face from Zhang. ”We are the Fifth Regiment, I remember him, and he is deputy commander of the first company.” The company's commander is a 4th rank warrior who joined The Jiu Yuan this time. Zhu Neng was chosen by the man himself.
Shen-Gu chose Lan Dier, who was only 3rd Rank, as his deputy commander. This decision surprised many people, especially those who had been following him since The Moer-Gan, but he believed he had made no mistake.
Although he did not spend much time with Lan Dier, he found that the young man was trusted by the priest and was one of the few intermediate ranked warriors who could meet the priest directly. Of course, he chose Lan Dier for more than that reason. The young man may be tender as a senior leader, but he is extremely smart and thorough. He also has great ideas and good temperament in dealing with the war.
[1] Lan Dier is the Hei Yuan Clan Yuan Ji tribe ma whose wife was a slave and had a breech labor which Yan Mo solved, when Yuan Ji was surrounded by the Zhi people the Red Fox tribe and another tribe.
The five heads of the regiments have not been involved. They left things on the leaders below the company commander arrange these trivial matters.
