Mu Feng slept until the next morning, the sun was already high.

If Li Hu hadn't called him outside the door, maybe he could have slept until noon.

"Great Chief!" Li Hu waited for Mu Feng to get up and wash up, and then came to the house respectfully, "The corn is already being planted, and it may be ready this afternoon!"

"En!" Mu Feng rubbed his swollen temples, but still felt a little pain in his brain, which was obviously caused by exhausting too much energy fighting Hu Leibao yesterday.

"Is the open space beside the second protective wall planted with corn?" Mu Feng asked.

"Yes!" Li Hu replied honestly, "If you hurry up, it will be planted after noon. At that time, I will directly ask people to build a three-layer protective wall! This time, let those soldiers go too!"

Mu Feng was puzzled: "Have the horses and red deer not stopped yet?"

Li Hu shook his head: "The red deer are already honest, but those horses are still fighting, there is no way to tame them!"

Mu Feng also felt a little helpless, and waved his hand: "Then just wait, there is no rush in a few days. It would be nice to build the three protective walls in these few days!"

"Yes!" Ming Guang breathed a sigh of relief, "The three-layer protective wall can be completed in two or three days if there are no accidents, but there are not many mulberry trees in the tribe, so we have to dig them in the forest outside!"

"Then go dig!" Mu Feng said with a smile, "If you need trees, you can cut them down from the forest in front of the tribe, and then clear an open space to plant other things!"

"What kind?" Mingguang wondered, "Do you still grow corn?"

Mu Feng shook his head: "We don't grow corn anymore, we grow soybeans instead."

"Soybean?" Mingguang was puzzled, "What is soybean?"

Mu Feng explained with a smile: "It's just like corn, it's edible!"

"Oh!" Ming Guang cheered up, "It's edible, do you have seeds?"

"Seeds..." Mu Feng sighed, gritted his teeth and said, "I will give you the seeds when the corn is planted!"

He has already decided to use his achievement points to redeem some seeds from the system, and he can't wait to find them in the wild.

"yes!"

"Also, have you gone back and thought about what I told you yesterday, about the tribal young and strong begging for marriage!" Mu Feng asked, "What do you think?"

"Thoughts?" Li Hu was stunned for a moment, "I'll listen to you, Great Chief!"

Mu Feng shook his head: "It's my decision to ask for a marriage, but which tribes around us are suitable for our Jiang family to ask for marriage, and which ones are not suitable, I can't know, this requires you to understand the situation of these tribes Just do it, understand?"

He is a little helpless. "Marriage" is extremely important in his old home in his previous life. Regardless of men and women, no matter how far or near, as long as it comes to the point of discussing marriage, both men and women will try their best to "get rid of each other"—to find out about each other. The "details" of the three generations of ancestors.

This includes the family tradition of the other party, the reputation of neighbors in the village, what the three generations of ancestors did, whether there is a history of genetic diseases, etc., in detail and in detail.

It's definitely not okay to ask someone like Li Hu who doesn't know anything.

If the tribe he wants to marry is an ambitious wolf, or if the people in the tribe are greedy, lazy, it will definitely be a disaster after he comes to the Jiang family.

Li Hu was asked by Mu Feng, thought for a while and said: "On the other side of the North Mountain, cross the Dalong Lake, and then go north for ten days, there is a Fang Lei tribe. Our tribe has been married to them before. Their tribe is about There are fifty or so men from our tribe!"

"More than fifty!" Mu Feng was startled, "Why so many!"

Li Hu shook his head: "There is no way. I heard from Grandpa that the Jiang family migrated from other places and were excluded by the local tribes, so they can only live here. Food, salt, and fur are very scarce. If the clansmen want to live, they can only give away part of it, and then return part of the food to support the people in the clan!"

Mu Feng was stunned for a moment: "Exchange a man for food?"
Ming Guang nodded bitterly: "I didn't ask for a marriage when I was 22 years old. Coincidentally, there was a great famine in this area that year, and many people in the tribe starved to death. There was no other way. More than fifty people, eighty sheep..."

"Fuck!" Mu Feng exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "A man can't exchange two sheep if he gets married!"

But when he thought about it, he realized that it was a great famine at that time, and the situation of Fang Lei's department should not be much better.

In addition, men in other tribes seem to have no other particularly powerful functions other than walking off to marry and reproduce.

In terms of work, each tribe also has its own labor force.

"Walking marriage" is just a last resort to prevent close relatives of the same clan from procreating and affecting future generations-this also leads to the low status of these men who come to marry by walking.

Mu Feng thought to himself: "If these fifty men have not left, does that mean that the Jiang clan now has at least fifty or sixty more men in the labor force? If they get married again and have children, wouldn't it mean that the tribe's In fact, the strong man can add another one hundred and two hundred?"

It's just that these can only be imagined and cannot become reality.

"What about the word-of-mouth of this tribe?" Mu Feng asked.

"Word of mouth?" Li Hu was puzzled.

"That is, do you think this tribe is good or bad, and how about other tribes?"

Li Hu thought for a while and said: "At that time, the number of this tribe was more than two thousand, and it was a big tribe. Two years ago, I heard from my grandfather that they had already surpassed ten thousand! We deal with small tribes like ours."

"There are more than 10,000 fighting tribes..." Mu Feng shook his head secretly, "It's no wonder that such fighting tribes don't care about our little food, so basically they won't allow female tribesmen to marry outside."

He said to Li Hu: "This tribe is too far away, and it is difficult to ask for a marriage. Let me tell you a few who are closer."

Li Hu said again: "In the past, we exchanged furs for salt with the Manglong tribe, and there are some women in their tribe who were married to us."

Mu Feng frowned: "It's the Reckless Dragon Division again, they should no longer exist now!"

Ming Guang hurriedly said: "There are quite a few tribes that are about the same number as us who exchanged things with the Manglong tribe, but they have married each other with us."

"Oh?" Mu Feng regained his energy, "What are there?"

Li Hu tried his best to recall: "I remember when I went to the Manglong tribe, I heard that there was a tribe named Hongluan, and there were a lot of women in their tribe. But there were too few men in the tribe, so they could only maintain their status for so many years. A certain number of people has neither decreased nor increased."

"Is there such a tribe?" Mu Feng was surprised, "There are so many women, it is absolutely possible to let other tribes get married and expand the number of people!"

Li Hu shook his head: "Men who walk away have no status, they are no better than slaves in our tribe. However, most of the children born to women in their tribe are girls, so this has been the case for so many years .”

"Are there no other tribes to plunder such a tribe?" Mu Feng asked.

"No!" Li Hu shook his head, "They are relatively close to the Manglong tribe, and most of the women are married to the Manglong tribe. Because the people around have to exchange things with the Manglong tribe, they also need to give to the men of the tribe. If you ask for a wife, no one will plunder the Hongluan tribe."

"I'll go!" Mu Feng sighed inwardly, "It's rare that such a balanced state can be maintained in such a society."

"Are there any other tribes?" Mu Feng asked again.

"There is the Yanhuo tribe, and there are more men in their tribe...

There is a frost department...

There is Ge Libu..."
