Chapter 690 Solution

"How were you born?"

After the fourth generation ancestor witch calmed the God of Gold down, he asked the craftsman totem.

"I don't know when it started, but after the miners finished their work, they liked to come to me to report their safety. Slowly, I was born."

The voice of the craftsman totem was quite steady. It was unknown whether he did not understand the seriousness of the matter, or whether he was just like that.

"What is your ability?"

the fourth generation ancestor witch asked again.

"It should make people's thinking more... clearer. Since Zhu Tong believed in me, his design ability has improved rapidly."

The craftsman totem said thoughtfully, and the fourth generation ancestor witch looked at Zhu Tong.

"Is he right?"

At this time, the fourth generation ancestor witch had a little doubt in his eyes, and he was a little anxious when asking.

There are countless totems in the alliance, and some of them have a power that affects thinking, but most of them are negative. This is the first one with a positive effect.

"Yes, after believing in the craftsman totem, I made a lot of changes to the train drawings. I have made great contributions to the train in the capital."

Zhu Tong said with certainty.

The fourth generation ancestor witch's eyes lit up. He really didn't know about this.

"Tell me about that feeling."

Zhu Tong frowned and nodded. After thinking for a while, he replied: "It feels like a lot of ideas popped out of my mind, and then I experimented one by one, and I could always find a result. If it doesn't work, I'll think about it again. There is still a way."

The fourth generation ancestor witch nodded, with thought in his eyes.

"Not only that, before I believed in the Artisan Totem, I would often fall into a dead end of thinking and could not think of a solution at all. But since I believed in the Artisan Totem, this problem has never occurred again. At most, I have to think for a longer time."

Zhu Tong explained.

The fourth generation ancestor witch nodded, glanced at Zhu Tong, then glanced at the Palm Gold Totem beside him, frowned and thought.

This Artisan Totem reminded him of a totem that Taichu wanted to cultivate but failed.

At first, Taichu wanted to cultivate a totem called the Technology Totem, but it didn't work. He said it might be too complicated, so he wanted to cultivate a totem called the Craftsmanship Totem.

But in the end, it still didn't work. For this reason, Taichu kept talking about it for a long time, and held a meeting of ancestor witches to discuss it.

At that time, the ancestors of all people also felt that they had no idea how to start, so they let it go. However, this incident left a deep impression on the fourth generation of ancestor witches.

When he saw the craftsman's totem this time, he felt that it was very similar to the totem that Taichu wanted.

"What do you think I should do with him?"

The fourth generation of ancestor witches turned around and looked at the God of Gold.

This is the territory of the God of Gold, and the fourth generation of ancestor witches asked him to show their respect for him.

"Crunch...Crunch..."

The iron fingers of the God of Gold rubbed on his iron head, and he had a confused expression.

"Then I'll decide."

The fourth generation of ancestor witches felt that it was useless to ask this question, so it would be better for him to decide.

He frowned and thought for a while, and everyone below looked at him tremblingly, only Zhu Tong was in a better state.

This scene made the fourth generation ancestor witch feel a little uncomfortable. He felt that with the improvement of the system, the tribesmen were no longer so devout in their faith.

Just like these officials, they all supported the craftsman totem, but because of official positions, life and death, fame and fortune, when the time came, they lost their courage.

Zhu Tong, on the other hand, although he was the mastermind of this matter, the fourth generation ancestor witch could see his firmness, which was the light of faith.

"There is no clear crime, so let's not talk about it. Let's just talk about the right and wrong of two things."

The four great ancestor witches had an idea in their minds and spoke directly.

"First, according to the rules of household registration, tribesmen with the same faith cannot live next to each other. You are wrong about this. Do you admit it?"

When he asked, he looked at Zhu Tong.

"Yes."

Zhu Tong answered affirmatively.

"According to the law, what should we do?"

the fourth generation ancestor witch asked again.

"Remove them from their posts and investigate them."

"Okay, the city lord Zhu Tong and all the officials in the city will be punished and removed from their posts."

The fourth generation ancestor witch said, and after a pause, he said, "The God of Gold, one of the few god-level totems in the alliance, was born in the Red Copper City. You want to conspire to usurp his throne. What crime is this?"

This crime was a bit serious, and the people kneeling below were silent and did not dare to speak.

"I think this matter is not entirely their fault, but I..."

The God of Gold was halfway through his words, and the fourth generation ancestor witch saw that he was about to plead for someone, and immediately stopped him.

"The country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules. They cannot be changed because of human relationships. God of Gold, this matter must be handled according to the rules."

The fourth generation ancestor witch said expressionlessly.

The God of Gold had no choice but to shut up. His two lips came together with a crisp sound.

"It's all up to the fourth generation ancestor witch to make the decision."

Zhu Tong said while bowing his head.

There really is no law in this matter. It can only be decided by someone who can make the decision. The fourth generation ancestor witch is the most suitable person to make the decision.

The fourth generation ancestor witch nodded and spoke again, but he did not directly state the charges. Instead, he brought the topic to the previous events.

"The relocation of Hongtong City is a good thing. We discussed it before in Taichu, but we just didn't have a good opportunity to do it. In this case... I'll finalize it here. Relocation."

Zhu Tong was shocked by the words of the fourth generation ancestor witch. He looked up with disbelief and confusion.

"Since you have already made up your mind about this matter, then you should make amends for your crime and be responsible for the relocation. If you cause a lot of complaints, you will be punished for multiple crimes."

This is like raising the board high, but it falls gently.

"Thank...thank you, Fourth Generation Witch."

Zhu Tong took the lead, and the officials behind him hurriedly followed to thank him.

"Zhu Tong, the officials behind you must be replaced. They should be transferred from nearby towns to help. This must be completed in advance. It is impossible for all officials in Hongtong City to have the same faith. Do you understand?"

The Fourth Generation Ancestral Witch said again.

Zhu Tong naturally agreed. Being able to make amends for his crime was beyond imagination. These were just trivial matters.

"Fourth Generation Ancestral Witch, I don't know...I don't know if the craftsman totem needs..."

Zhu Tong hesitated. Seeing that the Fourth Generation Ancestral Witch did not mention the craftsman totem, he could only ask himself.

"Take him back to the capital, go to the fairyland, and wait for Taichu to deal with him."

The fourth generation ancestor witch directly gave his own solution.

"Ah."

Zhu Tong screamed in surprise and became at a loss.

"Officials, please leave first. Zhu Tong will stay, and the others will also leave for the time being."

The fourth generation ancestor witch did not give an explanation, but asked everyone to leave first.

With his order, the officials behind immediately stood up. They were also eager to leave.

"Kacha, kacha..."

The God of Gold took a step and was about to leave, but was stopped by the fourth generation ancestor witch with a wry smile.

They are going their own way, why are you following them?

The fourth generation ancestor witch really had no way to deal with him.

After everyone left, the fourth generation ancestor witch let Zhu Tong stand up.

"You didn't do a good job on this matter. After the city is moved, you should also go to the capital."

Zhu Tong was slightly surprised when he heard this, and then his face showed joy. He was very happy to follow the craftsman totem.

"You people from Hongtong City are not suitable for being officials."

The fourth generation of the ancestor witch turned around and glanced at the God of Gold, thinking that he was not suitable for being a totem.

"I will suggest to the witch that the capital directly send someone to Hongtong City as the city lord, so you have to adjust the internal relations of Hongtong City in advance and don't add trouble to the successor."

The fourth generation of the ancestor witch said this very seriously. He didn't want any more problems.

"Yes, the fourth generation of the ancestor witch, I promise to reconcile the officialdom and people's livelihood in Hongtong City, and there will be no... There will be no such thing again."

Zhu Tong said with some guilt.

The fourth generation of the ancestor witch nodded and said nothing.

There are two main reasons why he punished so lightly. One is that the craftsman totem may be the totem that Taichu wants, and it is best to bring the witch of the craftsman totem with him. If the treatment is too severe, it will add trouble to the later adjustment.

Another reason is that it is not a big problem to plan to change a totem for the city.

Now the power of the alliance has been increasingly concentrated in the hands of the tribesmen. Although the totem can communicate with the tribesmen, the fifth Xuan has taken away most of their management rights.

In Taichu's words, a group of guys who are worshipped, living in stones and looking at the sky every day, what good management methods can there be?

The fourth generation of ancestor witches agree with this sentence. He has come into contact with many totems, but few of them have perfect personalities.

Either too stubborn, or too dull, and the rest are also a bit extreme.

There is nothing that can be done about this. In the past, totems could not communicate with people for years, so it would be strange if they did not have personality problems.

Although they have joined the alliance and can communicate now, so many years have passed, and their personalities have long been determined, and it is difficult to change.

Moreover, it is difficult for totems to keep up with the times. Because they cannot move, they have a weak sense of the outside world. It is difficult for them to judge whether the tribal civilization has progressed or regressed, and to what extent it has developed.

Now many things in the alliance have to look at data, such as how many people are in a city or village, how much food and taxes are there, these things have data, and most totems are completely in the dark when they see these data.

The God of Gold is one of them. He can only judge according to his own preferences, but cannot distinguish between good and evil, and even does not understand the rules. How can he be in charge?

This means that power can only be concentrated in the hands of the tribesmen. Totems are in charge, mostly in name only, to suppress the scoundrels.

The fourth generation ancestor witch himself is also particularly supportive of power being in the hands of the tribesmen. His background determines his ideas, not to mention Taichu's philosophy.

Many factors come together, and it is inevitable that management power falls into the hands of the tribesmen.

But the fourth generation ancestor witch also glimpsed the problems of the tribe from this incident. Since Shao, the power of the tribesmen has expanded a bit, and after Shao abdicated, Mang Wu's management of the tribesmen was even more lax than Shao, which was a problem.

When he returns, the fourth generation ancestor witch is going to talk to Mang Wu about this matter. The alliance should take back power, especially in the event of a war in the future.

"You will be the temporary city lord. Move out of the Red Copper City quickly. With the God of Gold here, the construction of the new city will be much faster. Then prepare to go to the capital. Do you understand?" The

fourth generation ancestor witch looked at Zhu Tong again and said.

"Understood."

Zhu Tong immediately bowed and said. The

fourth generation ancestor witch nodded and turned back to tell the God of Gold a few words, but after thinking about it, he said nothing.

It's useless to say anything to this iron-headed kid. Just let him live like this and be happy.
