"Well done! You guys worked hard this time!"
Inside the Qingque tribe, Han Cheng looked at the more than 200 people who were somewhat afraid but more curious and excited, as they expressed their affirmation towards the eldest brother and others who had obviously lost weight and had untidy beards.
"Go wash up first. The tribe's food is already being prepared. Once you're done washing up, you can eat."
Han Cheng pointed at the bath basket that was brought over and said to his senior brothers with a smile.
The bath basket contained spare clothes, soap, bronze razor, wooden comb and other items.
"Take these children and wash them too."
Suffering and daily interactions can promote the rapid development of relationships between people.
After nearly twenty days of walking from the Black Stone Tribe to the Green Bird Tribe, these two hundred people, mostly minors, have become familiar with the eldest brother and his group.
Especially after the eldest brother and others carried them on donkeys, or even carried them directly on their backs, and cured illnesses and saved lives after the rain, these children, who already had a good impression of the Qingque tribe, had completely regarded the eldest brother and others as members of the same tribe after the propaganda from their returning tribe members.
He also regarded the Qingque tribe as his own tribe.
So after understanding what the eldest brother was talking about, the children happily went with the eldest brother to the open-air bath by the river to wash up.
With the arrival of so many people including the eldest brother at the battlefield, the natural bathing pool that had been cleaned up after the rain by the river was immediately crowded with people, like a pot of dumplings.
The spectacular scene that can usually only be seen at the seaside or lakeside beach during holidays in later generations now appears in the Qingque tribe in advance.
Looking at these children who were happily following the eldest brother to take a bath and behaving like normal tribesmen, Han Cheng felt that he should adjust the way he treated these children.
Originally, his intention was to bring all these people back and make them all slaves of the tribe.
Let them start as slaves in the tribe and gradually become citizens.
But now, after looking at the appearance of these children, Han Cheng's thoughts began to waver.
Compared with adults, minors who are growing in all aspects are undoubtedly the easiest to be integrated into the tribe.
This can be seen from the reactions of these children and the children from the tribes of the Green Bird Alliance.
In addition, these newly arrived minors have not experienced the previous battle in which the Blackrock Alliance attacked their tribe, so they will not have any hatred in their hearts and will be more easily integrated into their tribe.
Han Cheng also felt that it was not a good idea to turn these seemingly innocent children into slaves.
Another more important thing is that after experiencing the surge in the number of slaves this year, Han Cheng will definitely liberate a large number of slaves during the New Year and make them citizens of the tribe.
And these liberated slaves will basically be old slaves in the tribe.
That is to say, by time, the proportion of old slaves among slaves will be greatly reduced.
For a long time to come, these new slaves will form the majority of slaves in the tribe.
Although these new slaves were not from the same tribe, they all came from the Blackrock Alliance, which gave them a natural sense of familiarity.
If we add the large number of minors to the mix, there is no guarantee that they won’t develop some inappropriate thoughts.
In the future, what Han Cheng wants to do most is to develop quietly, build the second branch tribe as soon as possible, and develop rice cultivation.
Although we know that these slaves in the tribe are unlikely to cause trouble, and even if they can cause trouble, it will not harm the foundation of the tribe unless there are major accidents, but if such a thing happens, it will still have an impact on the tribe.
This is obviously not something Han Cheng wants to see.
Therefore, it is better to take precautions before a problem occurs. Taking precautions before a problem occurs is always better than mending the fold after the problem has occurred.
However, it is not a good idea to directly let these children become citizens of the tribe. After all, in the past, people from tribes such as the Tengshe Tribe and the Bannong Tribe would automatically become citizens of the tribe as soon as their children were born after they arrived in the tribe.
Moreover, their mothers would take care of them until they were one year old, and then they would be taken from the slave courtyard to the inner courtyard to be raised together with the citizens' children.
Those minors who were born before coming to the tribe are still slaves in the tribe.
If this were really done, it would definitely cause resentment among these underage slaves who had basically been assimilated by their own tribe.
He still knows the principle that what is worrying is not the scarcity of wealth but the inequality of wealth.
This kind of thing is really distressing.
Han Cheng scratched his hair, looking a little helpless.
However, this state of his did not last too long, as he had too many things to refer to and learn from in later generations.
Now, Han Cheng has figured out a way to solve this problem.
This approach is called "double standards".
Of course, the double standards here only refer to the surface meaning, not the kind with some ironic meaning.
Han Cheng’s idea is to continue to promote adult slaves through normal channels according to the original standards.
A different standard was applied to these underage slaves.
After this idea came to his mind, Han Cheng's thinking suddenly became broader.
Squatting in the shade, picking up a stick and sliding it on the ground from time to time, after doing this for a while, Han Cheng already had a general idea of this standard.
This matter also needs to be carried out in stages.
For those children who still need to be held all the time, and those underage slaves who have just learned to stagger and babbled, and are still ignorant, they can be made citizens of their own tribe directly, and then taken to the inner courtyard, and raised by the female citizens of the tribe together with the other children.
These children are still young and ignorant. After they grow up, they will be like the children in their own tribe and will definitely not have any problems with loyalty.
They only know that they are pure Qingque people, and they know nothing else.
When the time comes, even if someone comes and tells them that you used to be from the Black Rock Tribe, a slave of the Green Bird Tribe, and that the Black Rock Tribe is your real tribe, these grown-up children will not believe it.
The most likely possibility is to use the weapon in his hand to hit the person who said this hard, and turn him into a slave of the Qingque tribe, and make him work well for the tribe.
This method cannot be used for those who are sensible and remember a lot of things, as well as older minors.
Han Cheng's idea was to first make them slaves of his tribe, and then after certain efforts, make them citizens of his tribe.
There is no such thing as casual success in this world.
The least valuable and least cherished things are those that come easily.
Of course, these children who have not yet grown up cannot be treated the same way as adult slaves.
A standard that is more suitable for them needs to be established so that they can escape their slave status through their own methods and become citizens of the tribe.
Han Cheng already has a general idea of this standard.
That is to have someone teach them Mandarin and Chinese characters, and then assess them after a period of time.
Those who learn Mandarin and are good at Chinese characters can become citizens of the tribe and live in the inner courtyard.
Of course, this kind of exam will not be conducted only once. It will be conducted once every period of time. It will not determine your whole life with just one exam.
However, there will be no time limit or number limit.
Han Cheng temporarily plans to set the duration to three years and the number of times to five. ::
If one still fails to pass the assessment after the specified time or number of times has expired, the only way for him to escape his slave status and become a citizen of the tribe is to contribute to the tribe.
Of course, this regulation is only temporary. After being implemented for a period of time, it will be adjusted based on the results and problems encountered during implementation.
Make it more applicable.
After Han Cheng had thought about these things for a while, people who had already bathed came back one after another from the downstream of the creek.
Looking at these children who seemed like different people after taking a bath, Han Cheng smiled.
The food that had been prepared in the tribe began to be served after these people came back.
The food for those who came to the tribe for the first time and the slaves in the tribe has also improved a little compared to the past.
Although it was far less delicious than what the eldest brother and other meritorious people ate, this level of food was far beyond the best imagination of these children who joined the tribe for the first time. They deeply felt the taste of the Green Bird tribe.
What kind of life can be called real life.
In recent times, the population of the tribe has really experienced an explosive growth.
溪部落的五十八人,加上这两百四十三个新到的人,部落里一下子就多出来了三百零一人。
这么多的人,单单是住房上面,就是一个大问题。
好在这样的事情韩成早就已经有了准备,再将两口井给挖好之后,他就让人在外院之中开始修建第三个奴隶小院。
部落里工具齐全,人手众多,还不用为食物的问题而担忧,所以没等大师兄他们回来,有三十六间房子的‘东二’奴隶小院就已经被修建起来了。
现在,除了有些潮湿之外,其余的已经没有什么毛病了,达到了可以拎包入住的程度。
当然,溪部落的五十八人加入部落就是公民的存在,是不会住在奴隶小院之中的。
吃过饭食之后,就是对这些新加入的人安排住宿的问题了,这样的事情,部落里的人经历了很多次,根本不用韩成多操心,草根等几个主要负责部落奴隶事务的人,就将之安排的妥妥帖帖,都是按照韩成之前的做法进行的。
将这些人安排妥当之后,韩成也将巫、大师兄、二师兄、沙师弟、跛、石头、黑娃、贸、谷、豆等一批青雀部落的高层召集起来,开了一个扩大型的会议,说了之前他所考虑的那些事情。
在召开这个扩大型的会议之前,韩成已经先一步找来巫、大师兄两个人说了这件事情。
石头作为已经确认的下一任的巫,也被韩成叫了进来旁听。
这样的事情,在说与部落里的高层知晓之前,他们这三个部落里的巨头就已经达成了共识,再加上部落里的人,都对韩成这个神子非常的敬重与尊崇,所以并没有人出声反对什么。
当然,韩成将部落里的这些高层给召集起来,最主要的目的也不是让他们来讨论这个问题可不可行,而是向他们通告这件事情。
会议结束之后的第四天,在韩成的提议之下,部落里在青雀部落的广场之上,召开了部落里的全员大会。
除了还不懂事的孩子,以及铜山居住区的一部分人之外,部落里的所有人都参加了这个大会。
部落里的奴隶们,也参加了进来,站在青雀部落公民的后面。
沙师弟等五十个人,参加这个大会的方式有些别致,与大部分人不同,他们是全副武装起来的,穿着藤甲,拿着武器,十个人守卫在青雀旗子下方的高台周围,另外四十个人,分作两列,守在青雀广场的左右两侧。
有着沙师弟他们这五十个全副武装的人在周围进行守卫,整个大会的气质立刻就变得不太一样了,变得庄重正式了许多,也更加的有仪式感。
在青雀部落全体人员的注视之下,坐在台子最中间的韩成,对众人进行讲话。
首先就是对部落里这半年来发生的重要事情进行了一个简单的回顾,并刻意点了一下部落里找到了不再惧怕寒冷的居住地,以及找到了水稻、甜黍杆这两种作物。
对于高岭土的发现,与陨铁工具的出现,都表示庆贺,对于溪部落的加入,表达了高度的欢迎。
并号召部落里的人,要与溪部落这些新加入的人,相亲相爱,和睦相处,共同为部落的发展做贡献,不可欺负新人。
黑石联军前来攻打铜山居住区,以及部落里的人口由此增加是讲述的重点。
韩成再次的对巫、大师兄、殇、榴头、麻雀、等人进行了点名表扬,对所有在此次事情中贡献了力量的人都进行了表扬,再一次肯定了保卫部落,打击敌人的正义性与必要性。
被韩成这样一表扬,巫、大师兄、以及韩成提前让人前往铜山居住区通知回来参加这次大会的殇、榴头等人,都是高兴与自豪的不行,非常的荣耀。
再对这一事情进行肯定之后,韩成也对部落里的公民以及老奴隶们进行了交代,让他们不要对新加入的、来自于黑石联军的奴隶们有任何的仇视与敌视。
这不仅仅是因为他们已经成为了自己部落的奴隶,更为重要的是,这些人都是一些无知的人,是受到了邪恶的黑石部落首领与被驱逐者树皮的蛊惑,才会来攻打自己的部落。
对于这一事情,韩大神子做的很是轻车熟路。
不过韩大神子说完这些之后,也强调了一点,那就是无知并不等同于没有罪,所以这些战败被俘虏的黑石部落联军的人,成为了自己部落的奴隶进行赎罪,也就成为了顺理成章的事情。
这些话一部分是给部落里的公民听的,更多的是给部落里的奴隶们听的,要让他们明白,青雀部落是多么的仁慈,才没有将他们都给杀掉。
成为部落里的奴隶,并让他们通过努力,能够有机会成为部落里的公民,是一件多么幸运的事情。
韩成说的这些事情,部落里的那些老奴隶们听起来基本上没什么障碍,但是新奴隶的们听起来和理解起来就有些难度了,大多都没有怎么听懂。
不过这并不要紧,等到大会结束之后,会有人专门的再去给他们讲解这些事情,做到让他们明白。
再将这些事情说过之后,韩成就说起了所有部落的老奴隶都非常关心的事情。
“……今年,有一百个人,将会被解除奴隶的身份,成为部落里的公民,具体都有哪些人,除了铁蛋、二虫他娘、豌豆……这十三个人之外,剩下的八十七个人都还没有确定,我还有巫、首领等,会根据你们平日里的表现,以及对部落里的贡献大小,进行认真的考察、审核。
等到今年过年之前将剩下的八十七个人全部都给确定下来,并举行大会,让这一百个人,正式成为部落里的公民,授予公民身份证!”更新最快电脑端::/
这样的一番话说出来之后,部落里的老奴隶们,一下子就欢呼起来,一个个激动的不行。
虽然早在将黑石联军的这些人给打败,并且俘虏了大量的黑石联军的人成为部落里的新奴隶之后,部落里的老奴隶们就知道,今年一定会有不少人的会被解除奴隶的身份,成为部落里的公民。
而且,神子从南方的锦官城回来之后,也明确表示了会这样做。
但是具体会给多少人解除奴隶的身份、授予部落公民的身份,却一直都没有说。
现在,神子当着所有人的面,将这件事情给宣布了出来,而且名额还是出乎预料的多。
之前这些人都以为能有个四五十人就已经非常的不错了,但是现在,神子却宣布名额有一百个!
这样大的惊喜,他们怎么会不高兴?
在短暂的兴奋雀跃之后,几乎所有听明白了韩成意思的奴隶们,都满是兴奋的用力握紧了拳头,下定了在今后的日子里,一定会更加的好好表现,争取做出更大的贡献,然后摆脱奴隶的身份,成为部落里的公民的决心。
还有八十七个名额啊!
面对这样多的名额,谁不想努力的争取一下呢?
看着众奴隶们的反应,韩成暗自笑了笑,带着一些得逞的意味。
这就是他提前将名额公布出来,却不将所人都给直接确定下来的最大用意所在了。
奖励这种东西,必须提早公布出来才能够对人起到应有的激励效果。
就比如,直到高考的前一天,你才对孩子说,如果你考的好了,将会多么多么好的奖励,这时候哪怕是你说出来的奖励再好,孩子再想要得到它,也没有什么用处了。
当然,除了这些与部落里的惯例之外,一直等到入冬之后,才会将所有的名单给公布出来,并举行解除奴隶身份、成为公民的仪式,还有一个用意就是,韩成想要让这些老奴隶们,多在奴隶小院之中住上几个月。
这样的话能够更好的防止这些新加入的奴隶们闹出什么幺蛾子。
再等上几个月时间,这些新奴隶们也就能够得到部落的进一步的同化,到时间他们再离开,风险就会小上许多。
韩成面带笑容的看着这些,等他们发泄了一会儿胸中的欢喜与激动之情之后,才出声示意他们都安静下来,然后继续进行讲话。
这次说的,就是关于对未成年人的奴隶们,采用新的成为部落公民办法的事情。
听明白了韩成说的事情意思之后,不少人老奴隶都升起了一些羡慕的意思,因为他们觉得这样的选拔实在是太轻松简单了。
不过再想起自己那剩下的八十七个名额之后,这样的情绪很快就消失掉了。
但也不会所有的人都觉得这样的选拔方式简单,更多的成年老奴隶们都是宁可接受现在适用于他们的选拔方式,也不愿意接受这种考核神语言,与神文字的方式。
因为他们觉得这两样东西实在是太难了,特别是神文字的书写。
他们宁愿干活,也不想拿着纸笔来写神文字。
However, when they saw the underage slaves standing with themselves and others, many people felt happy again.
Because unlike the adults, these underage slaves were more proficient in speaking the common language of the Green Bird tribe.
Their mastery of the divine language is also generally better than theirs.
And these people are basically their descendants, and they would certainly like to become citizens of the tribe earlier.
If it weren't for the new rule promulgated by the Son of God, these underage slaves, except for one or two people with great opportunities, would have to endure a very long time to become citizens of the tribe...
