Seeing the instructions in brackets, Xia Qi couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that Xiaoguangren had also learned to be lazy.

But he didn't expect that Xiao Guangren was already extremely busy with the arrival of a new batch of players.

To be honest, the Yixia tribe's army accounts for one-sixth of the total number of people. This ratio is indeed a bit exaggerated. In ancient China, it was a militancy and would be called a tyrant by the people of the world.

That is to say, in this primitive society where all the people are soldiers, Xia Qi no longer plans to recruit more troops in the short term. The proportion of the army is just right. If there are more, I am afraid that the tribe will not be able to maintain its reputation.

If the number of troops is really insufficient during wartime, Xia Qi can use these five hundred people as the backbone to expand the size of the army. Xia Qi learned this skill from the rulers of ancient China.

In ancient times, there was an army stationed in the imperial city all year round. They were not many in number, but they were well-trained and well-equipped. Once the world changed, the emperor would expand this army and use the original people as the backbone. In an instant, an army could be formed.

An army with amazing combat effectiveness will be formed.

"I think when my team first opened, there were only a dozen people in total..."

Looking at the orderly and prosperous tribe, Xia Qi couldn't help but hum.

"Clan leader!"

"Chief, where are you going?"

"Clan leader, you..."

On the road, no matter who they were or what they were doing at the time, they would stop and say hello to Xia Qi.

"Okay, okay, you're all fine."

Seeing the sincere smiles on everyone's faces, Xia Qi couldn't help but feel very good.

Later, Xia Qi came to Pan's residence. Pan's cave was clean and tidy, and everything was neatly arranged. It didn't look like a rough man's residence at all. As for Xia Qi, as the leader of the clan, he found two girls to give him

It's not too much for him to tidy up the room, right?

However, Pan was not inside. After asking someone, Xia Qi found out that Pan was currently patrolling the camp wall.

Pan is not as busy as usual now. In addition to being responsible for the city defense of the Xia tribe, he is also responsible for the transactions with the Qingyan tribe and a series of chores. He looks like the great steward of the Xia tribe.

There is no other way. Who can make the entire Xia tribe, except Xia Qi, handle things properly and have experience in managing tribes?

After inspecting the city defense, Pan was about to leave when he bumped into Xia Qi. His heart skipped a beat. Especially when he saw Xia Qi's smiling face, he always had an ominous premonition.

But that's what he thought, but he still went over.

"Clan leader."

When Xia Qi saw Pan, he immediately said, "It just so happens that I have something to ask you."

Pan Xin said: I would rather you not come to me.

A sincere smile appeared on Pan's face and he said: "Chief, please tell me."

"That's right." Xia Qi nodded and said to Pan: "Our tribe has almost reached saturation, but there are still many tribes outside that want to join. We have to think of a way."

Pan waited for Xia Qi to finish speaking and then asked very politely: "What does it mean according to the clan leader?"

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"I thought, the tribe wants to expand, and population is the top priority. These people have come to the door, how can we refuse? But you also know that there is no room for living within the camp walls, but let the new arrivals

Living outside the camp wall is not safe, and the different treatment will make the newcomers resentful, which is not conducive to the development of the tribe."

After a pause, Xia Qi continued: "What I mean is to build a larger wall outside the camp wall, thus forming the structure of the inner and outer walls. At that time, the livestock area and military camp can also be moved to the outer city.

.”

Just build another camp wall, that's fine.

Hearing that the head of his family just wanted to build a camp wall, Pan felt relieved at first, but when he thought about Xia Qi's usual actions, he always felt that things were not that simple.

Xia Qi took out a piece of animal skin from his arms and began to write and draw on it. He was obviously well prepared.

Xia Qi held a quill in his hand and drew a few strokes on the animal skin before dipping some dark green juice into a small box.

This kind of juice was found by Wu Yi accidentally. It can color the animal skin very well and is not easy to fade.

Xia Qi said while drawing: "I think that since it has been built, it must be built well. The width of the city wall is temporarily based on being able to accommodate two horses running. The foundation of the city wall is based on rocks. Didn't Tao discover a kind of adhesive over there?

Is it a clay with excellent properties? Just use that as a binding agent..."

Xia Qi frowned and flicked the quill a few times, suddenly missing Blue Star's various writing tools.

Pan on the other side was dumbfounded. He knew this was a big project, but it was too big, right?

According to the Xia tribe's original camp on the drawing, when the new city wall is completed, the Xia tribe's camp will be expanded at least ten times.

Pan asked innocently: "Chief, there are not so many rocks near our tribe, and our tribe cannot recruit so many people."

The projects that Xia Qi has built require at least a thousand people. In addition, it is still winter and the land is frozen as hard as iron. At the same time, the normal operation of the tribe must be ensured. With the current population of the Xia tribe, to be honest,

Yes, it's a bit stretched.

Whether it's Xia Qi's great success or wishful thinking, that's the situation anyway.

I used to think that the Xia tribe's population of 3,000 was quite large, but now it seems that it is just that, not as large as the population of a slightly larger town in later generations.

Hearing Pan Zheng's complaint, Xia Qi said: "I have already thought about your worries. If there are no rocks, we can trade with the Qingyan tribe. Didn't you say before that they wanted to trade sledges with us? Will our newly made sledges be used?"

Divide half of it and trade with them. As for the price, the price of each sledge is not less than fifty baskets of rocks, and there is no upper limit. Also, the size of each rock must not be smaller than the size of a human head."

"Yes." Hearing Xia Qi's words, Pan first responded in a low voice, and then said: "But clan leader, the population of our tribe is not enough to support such a huge project."

Xia Qi smiled mysteriously and said, "Who said I would use people from our tribe?"

"Ah, what does the patriarch mean?" Pan couldn't keep up with Xia Qi's rhythm.

But yes, as a primitive man who has not experienced the big information age, it is really difficult for him to figure out what Xia Qi is thinking.

"Aren't there many people out there who want to join the tribe? We will be able to use these people soon."

In order to survive the winter, Xia Qi started making preparations long ago. In the end, the well-prepared Xia tribe was able to survive well in the cold winter.

There is a saying that goes well, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, and this sentence can also be applied to the Xia tribe.

The coldness of this winter is far worse than before. As soon as winter entered, the snow kept falling. Not only nearby, but also the weather became more and more severe as you went north. The tribes in the north began to migrate south on a large scale, but in the end they were all conquered by the giants.

Xia Lake and the river blocked the way. It was also during this winter that the Xia tribe ushered in explosive growth.

Originally, according to Xia Qi's estimation, the camp wall they built could be used for a long time.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

However, I did not expect that within one winter, the camp walls would already be overcrowded.

There was no other way, so Xia Qi had no choice but to stop recruiting people.

But this is not a solution. As the number of foreign tribes continues to increase, the outside of the camp becomes more and more chaotic, and conflicts often occur over a mouthful of food. Although it has not affected his own tribe yet, Xia Qi believes that if left unchecked,

If these tribes don't care, it will definitely affect the tribes in the future.

The reason why the tribes gathered outside now seem honest is because Jingguan's intimidating power is still there. When Jingguan loses its intimidating power, then these tribes will definitely unite to attack the Xia tribe.

If the Qingyan Tribe seizes the opportunity then, the Xia Tribe will be in trouble.

Xia Qi's solution was actually somewhat similar to Jiang Yun's, but the other party used force, coercion, and bribes to lure those people to work. There were actually hidden dangers in this. If it was not handled well, it would explode instantly like a powder keg.

Xia Qi, on the other hand, used a method similar to recruitment to get these people to work voluntarily.

Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, but the methods chosen are different according to different needs.

"Is this method okay?" Pan was skeptical about this method at first.

"Why not?" Xia Qi asked.

"Tell those people that everyone who participates in building the city wall will be rewarded with one fish per day, and will have priority in joining the Xia tribe in the future."

Xia Qi's method is nothing more than a primitive version of work-for-relief. Think about Blue Star, how many projects were built through this method during the economic crisis in the United States?

For example, the world-famous dam, Roosevelt Reservoir, was built during this period.

After listening to Xia Qi's explanation, Pan suddenly changed his attitude and believed that his family leader's method had a high chance of success. He immediately praised:

"Wonderful, the patriarch's method is really wonderful!"

I don't even know what's so wonderful about it.

In fact, the benefits of Xia Qi's method are not just as simple as being able to build city walls, but also to win over and divide the foreign tribes.

As mentioned before, because of Jingguan's intimidation, those tribes do not dare to take action against the Xia tribe for the time being.

But as time goes by, the number of tribes migrating here is increasing at a rate visible to the naked eye. As food further decreases, those hungry foreign tribes will eventually lose their minds and ignore the intimidation of Jingguan, and finally choose to attack Xia

tribe.

In the eyes of these people, the Xia tribe is like a piece of fragrant barbecue, and everyone wants to pounce on it and take a bite.

But once this policy is implemented, it will be equivalent to winning over a large number of people. Even if the remaining people want to continue to be disadvantageous to the Xia tribe, it will depend on whether these people agree or not.

There is a saying that the reason why you do not support this country is simply because you are not one of the vested interests in this country.

These people who have been won over are the new vested interests of the Xia tribe. If others want to take advantage of the Xia tribe's big cake, they have to see if they agree.
