City:I Have a New Identity Weekly

Another month later.

On the other side of the moat of Xia City, there have been built fortresses made of wood and stone. Eight tribes live together. Now they are all wild people under the rule of Xia state.

It is also the time of summer city. There is a bonfire in a wide wooden house. The door is closed. The warmth inside the house is in sharp contrast to the cold outside.

"It's been winter so long. Why haven't the Mountain Tribe, the water tribe and the other 13 tribes received food yet?" The head of the fire tribe is called Huolie. Every head of the fire tribe inherits his name.

This generation is in their thirties, in their prime of life, with a hot temper and a ferocious temperament.

Since he inherited the backwardness of the Ministry of fire, he has increased the annual grain intake of the small tribes three times in a row.

At the beginning, there were also small tribes who resisted, but they were all destroyed by him and others. Since then, no one dared to disobey their orders.

At the bottom left, an old man with white hair pondered: "patriarch, can't they hand it in? After all, the amount of money has gone up again this winter."

He was slightly dissatisfied with Huolie's adjustment of the small tribe's share of food.

"That's their business. I'll send someone to urge them. If they don't accept any more food in ten days, I'll go and get it myself." A cruel smile appeared on Huo lie's face.

In fact, he preferred to rob the tribes because he could get more than that.

Not only to get food, but also to get more people to work as slaves for him.

If it wasn't for the respected old people in the tribe who objected to the fact that the people of the tribe were hurt too much, he would have done so long ago.

after all, the tribe has the final say.

Today's tribal chiefs are elected by the people, not absolute power.

Strictly speaking, the patriarch only plays the leading role and has equal status with all ethnic groups.

On the surface, at least, it's equal.

Of course, there has been a phenomenon of centralization in big tribes. Patriarchs have begun to have absolute say. For example, star tribes have been divided into different classes.

I believe there will be hereditary system in the near future, which is the inevitability of the times. For example, Xing, who is the patriarch, will definitely want to inherit his position.

This is not the case in small tribes. It's because they don't have enough to eat. Who would think about this?

What Su Xun was doing was centralizing power. He concentrated all the rights in his own hands. He crossed the slavery system and entered the feudal centralization system with one foot.

His identity as a god of heaven, together with his production of snow salt and the construction of Xia City, all these contributions enabled him to successfully centralize power without opposition.

Today's Xia state is his one word, holding the army and the absolute right to speak.

The advantage is that he can quickly lead the rise of Xia, because he has vision, technology and policy beyond this era, he is a wise king.

But the disadvantage of feudal centralization is also obvious, that is, once there is a weak monarch, all the efforts made by the previous generations of monarchs will come to nothing.

But Su Xun didn't have to worry about this. He left a separate body here when he left, and he was the king of all ages.
