Chapter 111: Horde Manpower Shortage

"Woo~~~"

Wuwu cried out excitedly, it is also a totem spirit with slaves, it stands in front of Xia Tuo, trying to stop Xia Tuo from cutting off his beard, this is Wuwu's slave.

Before Xia Tuo could react, the guy on the ground struggled to get up from the ground and knelt down at Xia Tuo's feet.

"Feng pays homage to the Lord."

"Woo!"

Wuwu suddenly became angry, the scoundrel Xia Tuo not only abused it, but now also robbed it of its slaves.

It is connected to Xia Tuo because of the totem pole. Even if it has self-awareness, it still exists attached to Xia Tuo. The primary and secondary issues have long been settled.

Xia Tuo took out a beast core from his bosom and threw it to Wuwu. As a little guy who didn't hold grudges, he hugged the beast core and ran to the side, happily chewing on it.

He stared at Feng on the ground, this guy no longer had that unruly aura, he completely surrendered under his feet, he never thought that the spirit of the totem would be so domineering.

"Where are you from?"

"Ordered by Hei Xuanfeng, the second elder of the Black Crow Tribe."

really.

Xia Tuo confirmed his thoughts. It seems that the Black Crow Tribe is really good at making money.

Feng raised his head and looked at Xia Tuo with fear in his eyes, and an illusory image of a god floated in his pupils. He felt that his own life was in the hands of the person in front of him.

"Qiaoer, what are you looking at outside?"

Seeing that she was discovered, Qiao'er stopped hiding, walked in with her little hands behind her back, and looked at the guy kneeling on the ground with curiosity in her eyes.

"Go and wait outside the door."

With Xia Tuo's words, Feng obediently got up and walked out of the Totem Hall, standing there enduring the injuries on his body.

"Uncle, when we were hunting that Tianmai-level warrior just now, Qiao'er found that the cooperation between them was a bit confusing, and some witchcraft blessings were wasted."

"Oh."

"Then how many witches do you think a hundred totem warriors need to fully arouse their strength?"

Qiao'er bit her little finger, thought for a while, and said: "One hundred totem warriors, if you want to arouse the peak power, one sorcerer plus ten sorcerers is enough."

"Qiaoer, totem fighters are easy to promote, but it's not easy to cultivate the wizards of your witch temple."

Xia Tuo said lightly.

"Can you plan a witchcraft promotion system like the totem warrior, without any geniuses, so that you can train a lot of wizards and wizards step by step."

"Uncle, this Qiaoer is thinking about it, and it's already going on in the Wudian, but there are only a hundred people in the Wudian, and the number is not enough."

"This uncle is here to find a way."

Xia Tuo rubbed her head amidst Qiaoer's serious protest, and then said: "You find some healing medicine for this guy, and let him recover."

"OK."

Qiaoer bounced and led Feng towards the witch hall, and soon disappeared into the night.

...

three days later.

In the past three days, the aftermath of killing the Tianmai warriors spread throughout the tribe, and every totem warrior stood up unconsciously.

family hall.

A dozen or so figures in the hall sat cautiously,

The buttocks only sat on the half of the stone chair, carefully looking at Xia Tuo above him.

The leader is an old man.

"Everyone, rest well these days."

"Your Excellency is merciful, please be tolerant to my survivors of the Red Scale Tribe."

The old man stood up tremblingly, bowed his body and said.

"Okay, sit down, I brought you back from the slave den to help me build a ship."

Xia Tuo waved his hand, motioning for the old man to get up.

"In a word, our Xia tribe has no shortage of slaves. As long as you honestly build ships for our Xia tribe and teach our Xia tribe craftsmen to build ships, then I can even ban your slave status and let you rebuild red scales in the Eternal Mountains. tribe."

"What the adults say is true!"

For a moment, the figures in the family hall showed surprise in their eyes, followed by a touch of joy, and they all looked at Xia Tuo in a daze.

"However, if the yang is obedient and the yin is disobedient, that guy from the night before three days will be the end!"

"I can't wait!"

More than a dozen figures stood up and knelt down in unison, grabbing the ground with their heads.

"Get up, old craftsman Akagi, tell me what you need to prepare for shipbuilding."

"My lord, if you want to build a large ship with hundreds of materials, you need a lot of wood. There are more than ten kinds of wood such as cedar, pomelo, elm, red, camphor, nan, catalpa, catalpa, oak, and cypress, and they are used as the main material of the keel of the large ship. , you need a whole giant tree to do it.”

The old Chimu guy was talking, and there was excitement in his muddy eyes when he mentioned shipbuilding.

"My lord, don't worry, these timbers are found in the Eternal Mountains. When the tribes around the Tuze Great Lake built ships, they all entered the Eternal Mountains to find wood."

"Yeah." Xia Tuo nodded, "I'll let my clansmen arrange everything I need to prepare."

"It is convenient to have an inner lake at the foot of the mountain in the adults' tribe. We can build a dock directly on the edge of the inner lake as a place for shipbuilding. We also need some clansmen to assist us."

"it is good."

"grown ups."

The old man Chimu stood up again, and said, "The wood you cut back needs to be dried, otherwise it can't be used to build ships."

"I know this. Let's see if we can dry it with charcoal fire."

Xia Tuo waved his hand to signal the old man to be at ease.

"Don't worry, your people are treated the same as my tribe's people, and no one will treat them as slaves."

"Thank you, my lord."

There was gratitude in Akagi's eyes, the Chilin tribe was wiped out, more than half of the thousands of people in the clan were slaughtered, and most of the clan became slaves and sold to various places.

It seems that their luck is not bad. They have a craft and met a kind master. As the master said, maybe there is hope for the reunification of the clan.

"That little baby among you is the descendant of your patriarch?"

The old man and the dozen or so figures around him, who had shown a look of relief just now, suddenly showed panic in their eyes, and there was a hint of prayer.

"Okay, let this little doll practice together with the dolls in my clan. In the future, if the patriarch of the complex clan doesn't even have any strength, how can he convince the crowd?"

Xia Tuo waved his hand indifferently, he's just a kid.

"Thank you for your success, my lord."

The old man Chimu led a dozen people kneeling on the ground and kowtowed to Xia Tuo. The reason why they didn't disperse was because there were descendants of the patriarch among them.

...

The old man Chimu moved quickly. He led several tribesmen and Xia tribe warriors to search for wood for shipbuilding in the depths of the mountain forest, and the rest of them began to build the dock beside the inner lake.

"Patriarch, there are not enough manpower."

Hong hurriedly ran up from the bottom of the mountain. Except for a branch that needed to protect the tribe, the rest of the clan soldiers under his command had already dispersed.

What Hong said, Xia Tuo was also very helpless, there was no one in the clan.

He waved his hand to let Hong leave, and headed towards the valley of Rendian. There were thousands of strong boys there, and their families must have thousands of people.

"You took everyone away, wouldn't the old man become a loner?"

When the old man Feng Xian heard Xia Tuo's words, he was stunned for a moment.

"I don't take people away. I want their relatives. After everyone has imprinted their totem marks, they will be sent back to you for training. I will take their relatives away to work."

Xia Tuo is very clear that he needs a lot of people to work.

He figured it out, he couldn't afford to have the best of both worlds, it was impossible for his clansmen to cultivate safely while keeping their strength intact.

There must be a part of the labor force at the lowest level to ensure that the rest of the people can practice with peace of mind.

In terms of the degree of intimacy among the people in the tribe nowadays, he is not inclined to let them work, and exchange them for the children in the temple to practice.

Xia Tuo directly ordered Li Dairen to find the relatives of these dolls, and of course he would bring some compensation to these small tribes.

"These children are still young, and they have more potential than those in the tribe who are forty or fifty years old and have not yet advanced to the totem level."

The old man Feng said: "You can make a change and reintegrate the tribe. Those who have not been promoted to the totem warrior over the age of forty can completely give up, as the cornerstone of the stability of the tribe."

But then the old man shook his head again, and said, "Thirty years old and above should not waste resources on cultivation, otherwise the tribe will have to pay a heavy price, and it will also affect the cultivation of young people."

The old man Feng's words made Xia Tuo understand very well that it is simply unrealistic for the whole people to practice at the moment, and one must distinguish between those who practice and those who support cultivation.

"I see."

Xia Tuo bid farewell to old man Feng and returned to the tribe, looking for some elders

"Patriarch, will someone object to this and cause a riot."

In the family hall, Elder Gong said hesitantly.

"Whoever opposes will be expelled from the tribe."

Hong has a fiery temper. He thinks what the patriarch said is right. The people in the tribe now spend a lot of money every day. It is unrealistic to support the whole people to practice. As the leader of the hunting team, he knows it best.

This time, Xia Tuo also invited old man Wu and old man Xuan out.

"It's enough for the patriarch to make a decision, and those who don't obey the edict are not members of our Xia tribe."

The old man rein squinted his eyes, and his eyelids drooped, as if he was dozing off.

"With the development of the tribe, whoever has no offspring can be trained by the tribe at that time. It is good to set a rule now. If you have not been promoted to the totem warrior at the age of thirty, what is the use of cultivating it? It is a waste of resources. It's just that this rule started from our generation, and some people need to make some sacrifices."

Old man Wu looked at Xia Tuo for a long time, and finally said: "I agree, those who oppose will be expelled from the tribe."

"I agree." Hong also echoed.

Soon, Xia Tuo issued an order to gather all the quasi-totem warriors in the clan who were thirty years old and above and whose strength reached nine hundred jun.

There are more than two hundred people in total. These people are not talented, but the strength accumulated over time. They have also been cultivated by tribal resources in the past. He thought that they could be trained to become totem warriors.

Right now, it seems that this strategy of mine can't adapt to the development of the tribe. Old man Feng is right, sometimes someone has to pay.

But before the reform, give these people a chance to see if they can be promoted to totem warriors.
