Doomsday foresight

A new life is about to be added to the family. This is the best news in the past few years, especially today is the New Year, which is even more gratifying.

Dabao had a smirk on his face, and looked at the daughter-in-law sitting on the kang from time to time, so happy that he didn't know what to do. Jinxi was happy for him when he saw it in his eyes, and his hands suddenly warmed up. Looking to the side, Jiang Chen was showing tenderness Looking at him with big eyes, the two of them clasped their hands full of happiness.

The New Year is always lively, and the ancestor worship in Yejia Village on the first day of the new year seems to be more grand than in previous years.Jinxi felt that the elders in the village seemed to be paying more attention to some traditional things, and they felt that these could make people more united and cohesive.He doesn't know what other people think, but he feels deeply about it. It seems that in this way, people have roots and are no longer afraid of the unknown.

On the fifth day of the fifth day, the village gathered again. This time, people from other villages were brought together. This year, those people had a good life. There are many projects in Yejia Village, and they can earn a lot of food. Afterwards, the hunting team will take them with them when they go out. There is no shortage of food. What's more, Yejia Village doesn't give them some regardless of the big harvest in their village. For more than half a year, everyone who died of starvation or freezing has a very stable life, and they are not planning to leave. They only hope that one day they can truly Join Ye Family Village.

The time came to the fifteenth day in a blink of an eye. There was a new program in the village on this day, making ice sculptures and ice lanterns. I took the melted snow and used molds to make ice of various shapes, and then hollowed out a suitable place and put a small oil lamp inside. There is no electricity in the village, even if you get a generator from outside, it is useless. The weather is bad and many generators can’t be used. Even Jinxi’s house is the same. In winter, the sun is not enough, and the solar generator can’t last for two hours at all. .In the village, only the generators in the plane brought back by Jiang Chen and the others can still be used, but now they are saving money. They are placed in the village assembly hall. Vic has brought back a lot of materials from the city, which can only be viewed on a computer. After he came back, he was also afraid that the computer would not work, so he printed out the materials, but there were too many things, and many of them were not printed out. He is also used to working with a computer, so there is a computer office on the second floor of the assembly hall, but that place Ordinary people can't easily enter.

Now there are many people in the village who can study electricity or other scientific and technological items, but unfortunately everything has changed. Many previous knowledge is no longer useful, and all data must be collected again.Human technological civilization has regressed.

The oil used for the oil lamp is a plant found in the forest by the villagers. The villagers call it oil fruit. There are more and more plants in the forest, but they are all evolved from plants in the past. This oil fruit used to be a kind of Weeds, sometimes growing as high as bushes, are useless, and have a bad smell. Before autumn, a kind of small granulated fruit will grow, and the smell of handfuls is not good, and it is useless. People who went into the mountain before found that this kind of weed grows very big, and it is as tall as a person. It is a bit similar to the deciduous shrubs in the past. After eating it, one bite is greasy, the taste has a fragrance, but it is hard to eat and has a bitter and astringent taste.

But the fruit pigs like to eat very much, so the village bought a lot of them to feed the pigs. The village started raising pigs because they had food. It was easy to find. If you find one, you can pack it in a sack. Later, the village lacked oil for lighting. People just thought of this thing, and it turned out to be very effective. The oil that was squeezed out was very bright, and there was not much smoke, and it had a faint fragrance.The pulp that has been squeezed for oil can continue to be fed to pigs.But good stuff.

Now every household in the village has made oil lamps, and they just use this. If they didn't pay attention and didn't collect this kind of oily fruit this year, Jiang Chen and the others might have to bring some oil to go out. I believe these bases won't have much electricity.I just don't know if this fruit is available elsewhere.

Because of this, the village began to pay more attention to those fruit plants that were familiar or unknown in the jungle. The village specially hired a few people to study the functions of plants in the forest, hoping to find some useful plants.

Put some paint in the melted water, and then light the lamps. The ice lamps look more beautiful. On the night of the fifteenth day, the village was brightly lit, and all kinds of beautiful ice lamps were colorful, decorating the village very beautifully.

The ice lanterns were made several days in advance, each household was still making ice lanterns in their own homes, Jinxi brought a few children to make them at home, they couldn't make any beautiful molds, but Jinxi got a lot of different sizes at the beginning. All the kitchen utensils, pots and pans, are useless in the warehouse. The square ones and the round ones have different shapes. Jinxi finds out a few beautiful ones, and then melts snow and paints with the children, and freezes the ice.In this way, large and small ice lanterns are made, and if you make a lot of them, they are also very beautiful when placed in shapes in the yard.

For the next few days, the lights in the village were kept on until the twentieth day of the first lunar month, when a heavy snowfall fell, and those lights were not extinguished.

After the [-]th, a meeting was held in the village to clarify the power relationship in the village. Jiang Chen was selected as the first generation of Yecheng city lord. The city lord was decided after they thought about it. This title does not sound like a modern name, but Now it is a troubled world, the old things have to be thrown away, and now is a new world.Although the title of city lord is relatively old, it is very clear. Outsiders can understand what it means and what kind of structure Yecheng is.

The city lords are not rotated. The village needs to be stable and stable. They don’t want to have an electoral system. They will change one after a few years. That way people will easily develop a competitive mentality. After a long time, it will become a nest, so it is clear from the beginning. The status of the city lord, unless the city lord dies accidentally or does something that threatens Ye Cheng's safety, and is overruled by two-thirds of the elders, the city lord will continue to be the city lord.

The authority of the city lord is as great as the responsibility, and there are more than 50 clauses in those clauses, but in summary, there is one center, that is, the city lord and Yecheng will coexist and die, and the interests of the entire city must be guaranteed.In fact, we need to carefully study those terms, Jiang Chen will be the guardian of Yecheng in the future, and he has a great responsibility.

Uncle Six was the first to propose this proposal. In troubled times, heavy codes are used. In the same troubled times, it is impossible to be democratic in everything like before. There must be a decisive and calm person to lead.There is no need to choose this one, the first choice is Jiang Chen, he is young and has a strong force and ability, the old people in the village are old, although they still have experience and wisdom to make the young people avoid detours, but they have no ability to lead those children So, Uncle Six didn't consider the older generation at all.After Jiang Chen was proposed, no one had any objections.Perhaps only when he becomes the lord of the city can he grow up smoothly. Of course, it would be no problem if Jinxi can be pushed to that position, but unfortunately Jinxi doesn't look like a leader, and the village doesn't want to push him to the front.

In this way, after a period of research, Jiang Chen was elected as the first-generation city lord. If there is no accident, the city lord will be 60 years old, and then the village will elect the second generation. There is a clause, that is, the selection will be held every ten years starting from the second generation of city lords. At this time, the whole city will participate. There is no exact regulation on this point in the village. Anyway, Jiang Chen is still far away from 60 years old. They did it for Ye Cheng, if all goes well, Jiang Chen will be the most difficult time for Yecheng when he is the city lord, so he will be given such great authority. As for the future, everything depends on the situation.

In addition to the city lord, Yecheng elected 21 elders. This is also an old-fashioned name. These 21 elders are also very important. They will not hold any positions in the city, but they have the right to supervise and participate in meetings. Needless to say, they will supervise everything in the city, and they can raise any problems they find, and even raise opinions on major events in the city.There is a bit of a think tank in the sense that an old family is like a treasure. The wisdom of the elderly should not be underestimated. Their life experience will bring great help to the young.These elders still have voting rights. If two-thirds of them oppose one thing, then this thing will be vetoed, including the position of the city lord.

These elders will not hold any real work. They are over 55 years old and under 75 years old. Once they are over 75 years old, they will automatically resign and then re-select a new elder. Many rules are very cumbersome. Of course, there is an exception here. It was Ye Jinxi, who joined the group of elders when he was less than 30 years old, and he was the only elder with a lifelong tenure.This is determined according to his ability.In fact, the village originally wanted Jinxi to assume the extraordinary status of a national teacher. You must know that Ye Cheng first proposed that Zhang Cheng was the one who organized the city lord and elders. At that time, he said it casually, because he used to play a lot of games No one thought that the speaker had no intention of listening and the listener was interested, so it was decided in the end, but Jinxi said that he would not take up the position of the national teacher, it was just a joke.It is this elder status that is only agreed to after persuasion.

Except for the city lord and elders, the top decision-makers in Yecheng, Yecheng has also carried out a detailed division of labor. Generally speaking, it is divided into two categories, one is internal affairs management, and the other is external armed defense. Needless to say, internal affairs are Yecheng is more managed, mainly under the command of Ye Qiu. In terms of force, the hunting team is divided into four groups, each with 200 people, including people under the age of 40 and over the age of 15. Each group is also divided into some small teams, because the population of Yecheng is increasing. In the future, guarding Yecheng will always maintain the number of two brigades.Without Jiang Chen's order, this arrangement cannot be changed.

The establishment of Yecheng's power this time is an important step in the development of Yecheng. It is also from this moment that Yecheng's power has been concentrated and it has embarked on the road of dominance.
