Chapter 12 Moyun Mountain
Bai Chou looks elegant, has a tall figure and a jade face. From his appearance, he can vaguely see that he was definitely a handsome man with a beautiful and elegant style when he was young.
The most profound impression of people is Baixiao's eyes. The eyes are not big, but the pair of dark eyes seems to contain countless emotions. This is a sad man and a person with a story.
According to the coming-of-age ceremony in the clan, the father of the ritual should come forward and personally tie the crown, indicating that he is eighteen years old and has officially won the crown.
It was also from this day that he officially became an adult male in this world.
After pondering for a moment, Bai Chou asked Bai Yu, "You are now adult, which path do you decide to choose?"
In the Bai Mansion, both men and women can choose their own paths when they become adults. The one who chooses the most is to stay in the clan and serve the clan, and then polish their own strength. After entering the Shenzang Realm, they can become an elder in the clan.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to the patriarch, the three elders in the Bai Mansion have the greatest power. The titles are also very simple, namely the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder. The titles of these three elders are fixed, and they are more like a position.
In addition to these three elders, other elders are called their names. For example, after Bai Yu became an elder, he was called Elder Yu.
Bai Yu does not know how many elders there are in the Bai family at present. Because the news is not announced to the public, the children of the clan do not know. I am afraid that only the clan leader and the three elders will know the number of elders in the clan.
Another option is to go out, go out to experience, and go to the mainland to experience it. This is also a hidden power left by the family. Because this continent is vast and boundless, the children of the clan who go out to experience it may settle down in a certain place.
In this way, when an accident occurs in the Jin Yunbai family, the blood will not be cut off, and there will be fire outside.
Moreover, not all people who go out to practice will settle outside. Some tribe members have their strength soared after they have received adventures outside, and it is not impossible to return to the tribe to serve the tribe.
“I chose to open up a new settlement.”
As soon as these words came out, the people in the hall were in an uproar. Even with Bai Chou's steadyness, he stared at Bai Yu with sharp eyes, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Bai Yu looked at Bai Chou without hesitation, "Of course I know."
Although humans now claim to be the protagonist of this continent, they are just claiming to be themselves. Humans do not know how many secrets this vast continent hides.
In the desolate wilderness, there are mountain spirits, ghosts, wild beasts, and strange poisons. If you choose to open up a settlement outside, it is equivalent to snatching resources and territory from these creatures.
This is not an easy task.
Bai Yu smiled faintly, "Of course I know the difficulty of opening up a settlement outside, so I will not choose a place that is too remote and far away. I am going to choose Moyun Mountain a hundred miles away from Jinyun County."
Moyun Mountain? Bai Chou frowned, "Although there is not too far from Jinyun County, the journey from here to Moyun Mountain is steep and it is difficult to transport supplies. Moreover, there are a group of thieves on Moyun Mountain. Can you solve it? If you choose Moyun Mountain, at most, the tribe will distribute you a batch of slavery and daily necessities. If you want to solve those thieves, you can only rely on yourself."
"Just a group of small thieves." Bai Yu was very calm.
Bai Chou looked at Bai Yu, who had become a little unfamiliar and confident in front of him with a complicated expression, "Since it is your own choice, I can't stop it."
The fact that Bai Yu was preparing to open a new settlement spread like a prairie fire throughout the Bai Mansion, and even the people of Jinyun County outside the mansion had heard of it.
Since the human race was born in this continent, it has been an ancient history of fighting with all things. Time is balanced. How much you get, how much others will lose. Every territory and city construction process is covered with death and corpses.
Many people have been unoptimistic about the fact that Bai Yu opened up a settlement after confirming the authenticity of the matter, and only a very small number of people appreciated it.
For some reason, the news that Bai Yu was going to open a settlement spread to Bai Mansion and soon spread throughout Jinyun County.
"I'm just a concubine of the White House. How can I open up a settlement? It's just a sensationalism." Someone in the restaurant talked loudly.
"Yes, when I see that, the man named Bai Yu will run back in shame in a few days, haha."
Although there are very few people who have opened up settlements in and out of the Bai Mansion, there are not many people. For example, Bai Zhuying, the second elder of the family, has his own vassal outside.
Bai Zhuying is one of the few people who have an appreciation for Bai Yu. When he heard Bai Yu preparing to open a new settlement by himself, his eyes lit up and his laughter came from the courtyard, "In the young generation of Bai Mansion, this is Bai Yu, only this is a man!"
Bai Zhuying is the leader of the hawks in the clan and has always advocated external expansion. It can be seen from the fact that he was able to own vassals that when he was young, he was also an unwilling and ambitious person.
Opening up settlements outside is actually to open up your own vassal areas. The income from minerals and elixirs in the vassal areas needs to be paid 30% of the family, and the income from the rest of the animals' fur, flesh, and industries belongs to the owners of the vassal areas.
Because animal fur and flesh are hunted by the owners of the vassal land themselves, the family will not stretch their hands too long, and the income of industries and other income is also run by the owners of the vassal land itself, and it has nothing to do with the family. It has to be said that the family is still very humane in some aspects.
As for the income from minerals and elixirs, 30% is not much. Because opening up new territory outside is a big piece of fat for many forces. Without the shock of the Bai Mansion, I don’t know how many monsters and monsters would emerge.
With the Bai Mansion standing behind him, the casual forces dare not reach out. As for those forces with the Bai Mansion, they will not be interested in this industry unless there are amazing treasures in the vassal areas.
When opening up settlements outside, the Bai Mansion will basically not provide assistance, so it can only rely on the pioneer's own strength and the strength of his followers.
How many children of the family have in their coming-of-age ceremony have the strength and power? These are all chosen in the coming-of-age ceremony, and there is only one chance.
It is unlike in the family that are easy to have various accidents and unknown dangers. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. How can you be safe in the family?
Therefore, although there is this choice, there are very few tribesmen who have taken this path over the years.
Shortly after Bai Yu returned to his yard, Bai Yue hurried over and saw Bai Yu scolding him, "You are in your head, why did you think of opening a settlement? You, you..."
Bai Yu picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Bai Yue, "Don't worry, drink a cup of tea first, and then talk slowly."
Bai Yue raised her eyebrows and saw Bai Yu's calm appearance, she couldn't get out of her way. "Hurry up and go to the patriarch to find the patriarch, and you said you were confused and talking nonsense in the morning. I'll also go to my father to help you say good things."
He pulled Bai Yue's arm up and stuffed the teacup into her palm, "Believe me, since I dare to say that, then I'm sure!"
Looking at Bai Yu's gentle and firm eyes, Bai Yue's heart softened, "Okay, I just hope you understand."
After seeing Bai Yue off, Bai Yu called Fang Xuanling into the room. "Mr. Fang, this action depends on Mr. Fang."
