It was with such doubts that Liao Gezi returned to Huayang Kingdom.
The construction site, which had been delayed for many days, was busy again. Agriculture, handicrafts, and construction went hand in hand. The number of people who came here gradually decreased, because the remaining people were still preparing for the next year's farming and canal repair in Jiangzhou City.
But it doesn't matter, the news of Huayang's founding has already spread, and it won't be long before those tribes who know that Huayang will no longer be affected by floods will move over with their families. Anyway, Shu people rarely have ancestral land.
People from Guanghan are exceptions, they are descendants of the Wulong family after all.
Šuzai expected to dig out the tomb of King Huangji, but after a few days of construction, no bones or the like were found according to the reclamation report, and the people of Jiangzhou also had other ideas.
If the bones of the human king were not dug up, then it would be a bit of a lie for you to claim that Guanghan Ruins is the land of the five dragons. The human king was not buried here, so it is still an ancestral land.
When Yan Zai was making a boat, he saw Liao Gezi, who explained the purpose of coming straight to the point.
After listening to it, Yan Zai said:
"So, you lead the Liao people out of the deep mountains, and teach them fishing and hunting, farming, pottery, domestication Do you want to join Baipu in the south of the river and become a king?"
"You are such a potential hidden danger, you are not afraid of me killing you, and you come here to ask me for advice, you are really too courageous."
Liao Gezi smiled slightly:
"I have some confidence in my abilities, and I have some strength among the tribe. I have killed ground beasts with my bare hands"
"Besides, you are the ones who are leaving, do you really care about me?"
Yan Zai shook his head: "You can say this, it means that you don't understand why I want to help Huayang found the country."
"Then if that's the case, give me a punch."
Liao Gezi laughed: "One punch is too little, how about ten punches?"
Yan Zai teased: "Oh?"
"Then give it a try."
So Yan Zai stood up and punched Liao Gezi.
The latter's face remained unchanged, and he immediately greeted him, but the expected punch did not appear. He was sent flying horizontally by the concubine Zai's punch, and rolled a long way on the ground. There was a pain in his chest, but he did not vomit blood.
Yan Zai said with a smile: "I didn't kill me! You see, you think you can catch a punch from me, but in fact you can't catch it at all."
"It's as if the Huayang people are just like you. You think they are as poor and white as you. You think you can get things done after learning their system, but is that really the case?"
"I've seen you in the past few days. You are here to observe the mountains and rivers, and you are always wandering around where the people of Huayang work. You want to see their reality, and then choose whether to rob or not to rob, so Say you are very simple, how can there be robbers running to the door of the target's house and shouting to go in and sit?"
"There are still nine punches, come?"
Yan Zai flicked his wrist, and Liao Gezi's expression changed. He was already a leader known for his strength in the tribe, but he could barely punch the person in front of him.
He decisively chose to give up.
Resolutely will never give in vain.
Yan Zai nodded: "Very well, let your people come over and help the people of Huayang Kingdom to do their work."
Liao Gezi didn't ask why, he knew he would get his own answer, that Qizi had said similar things before, saying that some things didn't need to be said.
The Huayang people were a little wary of the Pu people, but they thought that accepting the Pu people would attract more tribes, so they became very kind.
Yan Zai asked the Pu people to break up and go to work in different places. At first the Pu people were unwilling, but Liao Gezi told them that it was all for learning skills, so they went.
In just three days, when the big boat carried by the concubine was about to be completed, Liao Gezi came over.
Liao Gezi went to work in a farmhouse, and his expression looked a little weird.
"I went to see the Pu people I brought with me. They have almost turned into Shu people. It's only been three days. They have lost their original hostility. Why?"
Yan Zai smiled and said: "It seems that their sense of belonging to Huayang Kingdom is higher than your tribe."
"Happy here, don't think about liars."
Liao Gezi was a little at a loss, and Yan Zai explained:
"Some people have a sense of belonging to you, not to your Baipu tribe. Some people with different cultural accents gather together and call themselves Baipu. Are you really people who advance and retreat together?"
"You guys are not as good as Baiyue, it's fundamental.You can understand the weight of the word country. The country is not big, but the victory lies in belonging. There is a system if you belong. Today you teach the people of Baipu to cultivate pottery, or you are looting things. When you leave tomorrow, they will Then he yelled to break up and leave, the whole tribe was like being made of mud, and it would be crushed to pieces with one punch. "
"As for the system, that is after the cultural recognition."
Liao Gezi asked confusedly: "I know the country, but the Huayang country is also united by the tribes. Why can they become a country? How are the people of the country better than the people of the tribe?"
It contains: "No matter what the later states look like, when the state first appeared, there were two kinds."
"The first is the cause of the noble chiefs. It is the relationship between the oppressor and the oppressed, the controller and the controlled. It is based on the rules formulated by the nobles to rule and develop, and thus combine the aggregate."
"The second is the cause of the people, and the people of the country are just a collection of many people based on the unity of law and common interests."
"The law is what I call rules and systems. No matter what kind of country, nobility, or people, they will stand in front of it at all costs in order to maintain this system. No matter what kind of system, they will There are good and bad sides.¡±
"So, when a Pu person wears the same clothes as a Shu person, speaks the same language, and has the same habits, is he a Pu person or a Shu person?"
Liao Gezi was even more confused. He wanted to say that he was from Shu, but Yan Zai said:
"No, he is from Pu, because his ancestors were neither in Guanghan nor in Xiling."
"You still don't fully understand what belonging and culture are."
Yan Zai didn't keep him for dinner, but just told him that he would leave here in two days at most.
If the Pu people want to attack Huayang country, then there is no need, because Yan Zai said that you may not be able to bear the result of being crushed.
"There are two roads, and you have to bear the consequences yourself."
Liao Gezi found a man named Cuo, which means residence, and he was born in a cave.
Later, Liao Gezi came from afar and took them out of the cave. Cuo was the most loyal person to Liao Gezi.
Looking at Cuo who had changed his hairstyle, Liao Gezi fell silent.
People in Shu have their hair tied up, similar to those in the Central Plains, people in the Central Plains also wear their hair, people in the south, and people in Dongyi also
This is the so-called cultural identity?
Or assimilation?
They sacrificed to the same ancestors, and they all regarded Yandi Huangdi Shaohao Zhuanxu and others as ancestors.
This is assimilation, but in the process, perhaps, as Yan Zai said, there are two paths, blood flow or the whole family to vote.
"Cuo, are you still willing to be a Pu people?"
"What are you talking about, of course! As long as you say go, I will go now."
"What if I die?"
"this¡¡"
Cuo suddenly stuttered, and Liao Gezi seemed to have found some answers.
He thought of the person who most resembles Pu people, that is Dongyi people, why is Shaohao not Dongyi people, but was sacrificed by Dongyi people?
Perhaps the answer lies here.
