The Eye of the Yuan Dynasty

The eagle keeper looked directly at the woman whose husband died and said: "I am willing to marry you, but I killed someone, and the master will kill me. After I die, you can find another man."

The woman hurriedly begged Li Feimeng: "I am his captive, his slave. I beg you to let my master go. I can't live without him."

The eagle keeper shouted: "Why did you talk to my master? Since you are my slave, my master is your master. You still don't kneel down!"

The woman hurriedly knelt down in front of Li Feimeng, kowtowing and begging.

Seeing the woman kneeling on the ground, the group of shepherds looked at the three eagle-keeper brothers. The three brothers didn't say a word or look at them. The clever shepherds realized that the three brothers could catch them once and they would be able to catch them. Catch them two or three times.

But Li Feimeng and Bai Wushuang didn't look like prairie people, and they had to leave sooner or later.

If the falconer was killed for murder, the remaining two brothers would definitely not let them go.

The man quickly followed the woman and knelt down, and kept winking at the other shepherds. Those shepherds were together every day, so they naturally understood each other's thoughts. They all pulled their wives and children to kneel together, shouting, "Master, please spare his life."

Li Feimeng felt that this eagle-raiser had a lot of eyes, so asking the woman to call her master was not a trick for him?If he killed him, he would have to accept his slave.

But Bai Wushuang's words just now made Li Feimeng also care about it. Only by subduing these people can the reincarnation of the grassland's will be changed. Although they are afraid of the three brothers and surrender to themselves, he is not afraid of trouble.

"If you want to follow me, you have to abide by my rules, are you willing?" Li Feimeng looked at everyone and said.

The eagle keeper took the lead and said: "Master's rules are the will of God. I dare not complain if the master grants me death."

The two elder brothers of the eagle breeder knelt down and swore: "Please be our sweat, all enemies are ahead, we are willing to be the vanguard and rush forward, and bring beautiful girls and noble ladies to you!

We want to plunder foreign beauties and beautiful ladies, as well as good-humped geldings, and bring them to you!

When hunting cunning beasts, we would like to be the pioneers to hunt them down, driving the beasts in the wilderness belly to belly, and the beasts on the cliffs thigh to thigh!

During the battle, if we violate your order, we can separate our wives and concubines, confiscate our property, and throw our heads on the ground!

In peacetime, if we violate your resolution, we can confiscate our servants, take away our wives, concubines, and children, and abandon us in an uninhabited place! "

Li Feimeng said: "Let's make three chapters first:

1. Killer dies

2. Theft

3. Compensation for damage to property or injury to others. "

The eagle keeper looked directly at the woman whose husband died and said: "I am willing to marry you, but I killed someone, and the master will kill me. After I die, you can find another man."

Li Feimeng said: "Everyone forms a tribe, we first make three chapters:

1. Killer dies

2. Theft

3. Compensation for damage to property or injury to others. "

Li Feimeng pointed to the eagle breeder and said, "If you kill someone, you should be executed. But I didn't announce these regulations to you before, and the sufferer is not willing to pursue your crimes, so the previous things are not governed by the three chapters of the contract.

The death penalty can be avoided, but you must say a unique confession to the woman who is willing to marry you before you can marry her. In order to show your sincerity, you must not steal what others have said. "

The eagle breeder is a person who is quick in action but slow in speech. Li Feimeng thought it would be difficult for him, but he didn't expect that all men in love will become poets. The eagle breeder said to the woman without hesitation: " I swear in the name of Changshengtian:

I accept you as my wife. From now on, I will love you no matter whether you are poor or rich, regardless of good or bad, high or low, sick or healthy.

Don't hit you, don't scold you, protect you, cherish you, until death. "

The woman was moved to tears, and the others applauded one after another. Since then, the falconer has been widely spread and has become a standard wedding vow for later generations.

Li Feimeng asked the shepherds: "There are so many of you, but you were arrested by three people, have you learned any lessons?"

The shepherd said: "We want to raise an eagle so that scattered people can communicate with each other. As long as individuals are protected from group attacks, we will not fail."

Li Feimeng said: "Well, from now on, the shepherd will continue to herd sheep and horses, and the falconer will catch an eagle and give it to the shepherd as a bride price for his wife. The shepherd must strengthen his self-defense ability. The three of you, each of you Select two men from the herdsmen to be responsible for defending the homeland.

Among the herdsmen, a man and a woman are selected, and one of the three brothers is selected to form a three-member regiment, representing the herdsmen, women and guards.

There are two conventions for herdsmen and women: adult men and women are equal; those who formulate management conventions can only be managed people, and irrelevant people must become the objects of management if they want to participate in the formulation of management conventions.

There are two guard conventions: all actions are subject to command, and credit is assigned to the captured soldiers.

Everyone must abide by the provisions of Chapter Three of the Covenant, especially the guards. "

The herdsmen chose the male name Bileg and the female Namolun, and the three brothers chose the falcon breeder Hebichi.

He Bichi asked: "Take care of yourself. Shouldn't those who fail to complete the task be punished?"

Li Feimeng said: "The shepherds formulate the herdsmen's convention, the guards formulate the guards' convention, and the women formulate the internal affairs convention, and they must formulate the distribution, rewards or punishment regulations of all tribes. The three of you each ask for your own group's opinions. After the public debate, All votes."

Three is the most magical number. As the saying goes: "Three monks have no water to drink." It means that three people will argue and compare with each other, and in the end nothing can be done.

And Laozi said: "Three things are born and all things are born." He affirmed that the composition of all things must be three different things.

Li Feimeng divided the tribe into three different units and separated the women, hoping to use women as the glue to combine the wisdom of the three different bodies.

The shepherds had no concept of hierarchy, and they were very much in favor of this method of equal negotiation. Hebitchi managed his guards in a hierarchical system, had independent command power, and had no objections.

He Bichi is worried that several departments will argue with each other, but distribution and rewards and punishments are not as urgent as fighting a war, and need to be decided on the fly. As long as open discussions are allowed, it seems better to be slower and fairer.

He Bichi asked again: "The battle of the guards can bring wealth to the tribe. Looting is not allowed. Where is our enemy?"

Li Feimeng put a large bag of spirits in front of the three of them, and said, "I have a cottage in the Central Plains, this is the wine they make, everyone tastes it, and they get a lot of things in exchange for it.

I will ask them to send some wine, and you can use this wine to go to the various tribes to exchange what they need. You can ask them for all your basic daily necessities.

I will send someone over to teach you how to read and write, and within a year, each of you must learn to read, write and do arithmetic in Chinese. "

Bileg asked: "We sheep herders, why do we need to learn to write? What's the use of learning?"

He Bichi snorted and said: "Stupid, this is the great kindness of the master. The nobles on the grassland can't write. The master gave you the opportunity to learn to write. Aren't you more noble than all the nobles on the grassland in the future?"

Everyone will go to various tribes to sell goods in the future. Will you count and keep accounts?

I want to learn to write, and record clearly the rules of the master and the property I bought and sold, so as not to be deceived by you. "

Na Molun said: "I want my sisters to record all your words and deeds. We women manage the property for the master. If any of you bully us or take things from the master secretly, I will ask the sisters to report him to the master. "

Li Feimeng hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, everyone, don't quarrel. Go back and think about it, what are the things in the grassland that can be sold to the Central Plains?"

The three of them distributed a large amount of wine to the tribe. When they smelled the aroma of the wine, the eyes of these prairie people turned green, and they couldn't wait to drink the spirits in one gulp. The tyrannical Hebichi brothers licked their faces and asked for a drink from a woman who hadn't finished drinking, and promised to help her out if anyone bullied her. A small bowl of wine that the women didn't have time to drink down.

....

Without a township guide, they couldn't get a favorable location. These prairie natives surprised Li Feimeng the next day.

"Eji Nur and Hetao both have huge salt lakes, and we can sell the salt there to the Central Plains."

"There is coal in the Surrendered City, do people in the Central Plains need to use coal for fire?"

"There is copper in the desert, but it is very dangerous to go in and out of the desert."

"There is a very hard black stone on Yinshan Mountain. I don't know what it is."

.....

For the mines reported by the herdsmen, with the current dozen or so manpower, any mine would be understaffed.

But these minerals, except for the copper mines in the desert, are all within the range of the big tribe's pastures, and can only be exchanged for wine.

What makes the most money?Of course it is copper. Copper can be cast into money. Who doesn't like digging money?

But this copper is in the desert, not to mention the difficult roads, and it cannot be mined without water and tools.

Coal is worthless, and a large cart can't be sold for a few dollars. Salt is much more valuable than coal.

Li Feimeng and Bai Wushuang went directly to the Tatar tribe to negotiate. If they negotiated cooperation with the Tatar people, they would have a stable trade channel for salt in the future.

Li Feimeng gave Hebichi a letter, asking him to take a few herdsmen and go to the dense forest outside the pass to find people from the knight village to carry supplies.

He Bichi's two brothers left behind, trying to find a way to recruit newcomers.

Bai Wushuang is very interested in those hard black stones on Yinshan Mountain. She knows how to smelt iron, has seen skilled blacksmiths smelt iron, and has repaired antiques. She thinks that the black hard stones are probably iron ore.

However, too few people have become a key factor restricting the development of mining and iron smelting industries.

The wine sales in Xiake Village are very good. If you don’t lack money, you can naturally buy enough grain from the Central Plains. However, the grassland lacks grain but has no shortage of minerals and manpower. The two are very complementary.

The trouble is that the territory of Xia Kezhai is too small, and the buying and selling of grain can only be carried out secretly, and the scale of grain is still not enough to stably support a large number of recruits.
