When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 360 Tong and Father
Tong frowned slightly and looked at the young man wearing "martial arts uniform" in front of him.

The young man wore a crown, a mahogany hairpin, wooden armor with deerskin lining, and deer velvet boots of thick cloth at his feet. A bow and a stone ax hung around his waist.

This outfit is exactly the same as the "warriors" walking in the city: "Why are you dressed like this?"

"Today's martial arts class, do you have any questions?" The young man walked to the wall, hung up the bow and axe, then reached for the ladle and scooped out the water in the large vat. It was bubbling. He looked carefully at the bottom of the vat. There is charcoal burning.

I got some and poured them into the basin that was frozen on the edge.

Then when the ice melted, I got a towel, washed myself, and wiped my face.

"No." Tong didn't want to say anything more. He had never dealt with his younger brother since he was a child.

"Hey, I know what you want to say." The boy finished wiping his face and washing the towel and said, "I just want to say, we are not businessmen, why do we wear such comfortable clothes? Can we work in the fields or go hunting?"

"Humph——" Tong didn't bother to answer.

The young man curled his lips, and then called Xin Wu: "Uncle, when will our clan go to war? I'm old enough, and it's time to go to the battlefield and raise my title."

"How old are you?" , it is up to him to decide whether Tong stays in Changping or goes to Kuzhai.

When the time comes to separate the family in advance, one of your parents' titles will always be yours, so why worry? "

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then the old man stood up excitedly: "Separate families? Separate families! What does Xin Bing do for food? If he doesn't come back, why is he going to the south?
Be a chief?What’s so good about the south!After development, can it be our own territory?If a businessman says something, can you stay there? "

"Old man, don't be anxious, don't be anxious! Xin Wu hasn't finished speaking yet! Let him speak properly!" Tong's stepmother was shocked, and hurriedly came to comfort her, then glared at Xin Wu, "Why are you so stupid? Seriously? explain!"

"Okay, okay." Xin Wu sighed and said, "I will be the villain. You kid, shut up later."

Tong said nothing.

Xin Wucai continued to talk about what happened in the city before.

However, Bing Jia's approach was hidden by him.

It's too extreme after all.

The impact behind it is not good either.

The old man was almost suffocated and said: "Confused! How could Xin Bing and the old witch be so confused! Don't you know that the Xin clan has a tribe of fifty thousand people now? Let's just say, no one can do it up and down Shannan. Shake three shakes! It’s inappropriate for a good and generous citizen to go to the south and work as a dog for a businessman?

Get them back quickly!never mind!No matter what the old witch thinks!You kid is not allowed to leave the Xin family! "

"Dad..." Just as Tong was about to speak, the old man glared at him and said, "If you still think that I am your father, shut up!

Do you know who I am working hard on all year round for?

And you, you don’t even have a mother-in-law now..."

"Yes, I'm pregnant." Tong added.

"Shit! I don't admit it! What kind of status and status can I be your wife?" The old man waved his hands angrily, "I have already found a chief's daughter for you! She only has such a daughter, you marry her, and then turn around Go to their tribe, he is the chief of No. [-] people.

With the support of the clan, when your title rises in the future and you get a surname, the [-]th person will change it to your surname. As long as you go to the army, you will get a good title sooner or later. "

"Xin Qu plans to add three more titles to the official officials, namely, Qing Dafu, Shao Qing, and Shang Qing." Xin Wu continued, "Previously, Xin Qu began to arrange surnames for the scholar-bureaucrats, and also gave some small territories as fiefs.

Starting from the time when you become the official of Qing Dynasty, you will be able to support your retinue.

There are 300 ministers, 500 ministers, and [-] ministers.

And a large piece of land in the border areas will be given as a fief.

This is a town.The size of the township is not small. "

After Xin Wu finished speaking, the old man became even more excited and said: "Listen! Brat! Doctor Qing will get a fief and have hundreds of retinues, which means hundreds of households.

And there are clan members who will help you and protect you. See if you can get these in the south? "

"It's not that easy." Tong retorted.

"It's that easy! The Xin clan is invincible! From the time when the clan leader led us, we have never been defeated!"

The young man was the first to refuse and hugged her with a look of disdain.

Almost all young people are superstitious about Xin Qu, and they all believe that the Xin family is invincible and invincible.

Whether there is a legend that the Xin family is a virtuous family, or there is a real record of the Xin family's success in battle.

"Even the Shang Kingdom has been defeated several times. How can there be any tribe that keeps winning?"

Tong was not polite and continued to go against the boy's words.

"I said yes!" The young man frowned and blushed, "Even if he doesn't! I will make him yes! War is cruel, but as long as everyone does their best, the weak will defeat the strong. , it is not easy to defeat many with a small number.

What's more, we won't do that!
You do not understand!Because of Xin’s experience in the past two and a half years, you have never endured it.

And we are the ones who have experienced it!Young boys like us are forced to read, write, practice, drive, and follow laws every day.Maybe I don’t have more experience than you, but I definitely am no worse than you in terms of ability! "

Tong was slightly startled. He noticed an inexplicable self-confidence and the excitement in the young man's mind.

"This boy is right. I have gone to see the South with my own eyes. But Qu is different. The reason why he has been able to lead the Youxin clan to win till now is because he knows how to use water and fire to help.

They were setting wildfires before, but I didn't participate.

However, he personally forced his uncle to join the Xin clan.

To beat Mo, he used a large amount of water and drowned 5000 people.

Starting from him, the war was not what the southern business people imagined, just fight it and sacrifice it.

Instead, I will completely destroy you and then erase you.

In terms of shock, perhaps the Shang clan's shock is more long-term, but for Xin Qu's approach, you are gone, and the shock is not for you, but for those who are still alive.

The Shang clan needs to perform sacrifices again and again to make more people fearful.

However, it only takes one war for the Xin clan to turn potential enemies into tribesmen and arms, which will continue to grow.

Therefore, in two and a half years, there were [-] Xin clan members. Although the actual registered clan members were only [-], we still had a large amount of manpower that could be supplemented.

They won't consider reuniting the clan casually because they don't need to.

Their belief in ghosts and gods is still there, and the clan will not interfere. As long as it does not undermine the Xin family's measures to unite, that's fine.

They can still get land and farm, and those who have made contributions to the Xin family can still get promotions.

The chief your father talked to you about is a grassland man who was brought over from the west by his tribe last year.

These grassland people are also actively integrating into the Xin clan. This chief has never given birth to a son. If he follows the rules of the grassland, once he dies, everything in the family will belong to the next clan leader.

He still loves his daughter, so he doesn't want this, so he wants to ensure that his daughter lives a stable life.

The clan's patriarchal system can ensure that his needs are met.

It is undeniable that Xin Qu settled the inheritance system very well. No matter what happens in the future, only one eldest son or eldest daughter of you and your wife can get half of the property, and the other half will be distributed to other children.

In this way, no matter how complicated the family composition is, there can only be one eldest son or daughter, so the status of the maternal clan is very important.

see what i mean? "

Tong frowned for a moment and said, "What if this eldest son is not mine?"

"Every wife has a legitimate son. But there is only one eldest son. It is up to you to choose who to make the eldest son. Anyway, they are all legitimate sons. If there is no legitimate son, then you can only make a concubine. But once you make a concubine, you can only make a new year. The one who is tall and can convince the public. After all, your title is mainly for the eldest son."

After Xin Wu finished speaking, he coughed lightly and continued: "Okay, enough talking. I asked you to come to see your parents, and you guys should have a good talk. I deliberately stayed here until now, just because I was worried that you wouldn't be able to talk clearly and would cause trouble. .

It’s your choice whether to go south or not.

Although Xin Bing and I are brothers, it is impossible for me to go to the south now.

Therefore, family separation is inevitable.

But you are different. It doesn’t matter if you have a woman in the south. When the child is older, you can bring her back.If you can't be a wife, you can be a concubine, and the children will be treated as concubines.

Of course, who knows whether the first child is yours!So, wait for the second or third one. If you like him very much, you can give him a title.

You don’t have to go to the battlefield. Once the child comes back, he can settle down and become a commoner.

When you are old enough, you can go to the Yamen to apply for a job or two, fill out a form, and redeem your family land for your children to support.

Save a little of the harvest every year to go to the grain store. When the children grow up, they can be promoted to noble families immediately.

In the future, even if your child's family is separated, all the land he cares about will be given to him, and he will be asked to go to the government office to find a new household, and you will be able to have a grandson in three to five years.

OK, I'll go first. "

Xin Wu slipped away, but Tong still didn't say anything. The young man got up, went to get the sand table, and went to the corner to practice calligraphy.

The woman went to cook, leaving only the father and son.

After a while, the old man said: "There is a temple fair tonight, come with me to listen to it."

"Okay." Tong paused and did not refuse.

"Okay, mother-in-law, here comes the salt-baked chicken. I'll prepare one later for the tribute. There's also Liang wine, which I managed to get. I'll have two drinks with this guy tonight."

"Eh!"
