Seven days passed in a blink of an eye.The Hundred Clans Conference was held as scheduled.

Because of Baicao Gu's appearance, all the clans sent many people to participate in the Hundred Clans Conference, including the patriarchs of the various clans, the elders of the clans, and some prestigious figures in the clans.

On the day of the Hundred Clans Meeting, the scene was very spectacular, with no less than a thousand people.

Baicaogu, as the link between the various ethnic groups, first gave the opening speech, then introduced Zhuo Xiaofan's status as the governor, and then naturally handed over the "golden microphone" to Zhuo Xiaofan.

Zhuo Xiaofan stood in the center of the stage, looking around at the crowd.

Zhuo Xiaofan said loudly: "Baicaogu has already explained the purpose of today's meeting of hundreds of clans. Today's meeting is for the stability of Dongchuan, and the people can live in peace and contentment. As the governor, I have a duty to do it. Everyone is an authority figure among the 28 clans. , it is even more duty-bound. Now I am here to announce the appointment of Dongchuan governor's office. Wu Yong, the patriarch of Wabu and Kana, will be the chief historian, and my assistant will be the military and political counseling department. Everyone should help them more in the future, and work together to Dongchuan's affairs will be handled well."

But as soon as Zhuo Xiaofan finished speaking, he heard a lot of discussion and disdainful voices.

"Why, our Dongchuan affairs have always been decided by us Dongchuan people ourselves."

"That's right, didn't you say to hold the Hundred Clans Conference? Of course, such an important matter should be decided by the Hundred Clans Conference. Why are you an outsider messing around?"

"That's right, we're here to attend the Hundred Clans Conference, just to save face for Aunt Baicao, why are we here to listen to your instructions?"

The Hundred Clans Assembly, which was quiet before, suddenly became noisy, like a vegetable market, full of ridicule and abuse.

"Everyone be quiet. You are all the elders of the clan. I believe you all want to see a stable situation in Dongchuan, not a situation of fragmentation, chaos and poverty." Zhuo Xiaofan looked at the chaotic scene and moved My own words were sent out with spiritual power, suppressing the chaotic scene present, so that everyone could hear these words clearly.

Everyone felt their eardrums swell, and Zhuo Xiaofan's words hit their ears like a heavy drum, and those who opened their mouths shut their mouths involuntarily.

The voice on the field gradually became quieter.

"On the way here, I saw with my own eyes the hard life of the people. In order to exchange more rations for their children, some people went through hardships to beg for salt in exchange for food. There are even many families who cannot eat a piece of meat all year round. Those of you here You are all nobles in the clan, of course you have never experienced such a hardship, but you should know it in your heart." Zhuo Xiaofan's words continued to echo in everyone's ears.

Quite a few people bowed their heads in shame. They were well aware of these situations, but they had more than enough energy.

"Today, I convened everyone to hold a meeting of hundreds of clans to solve these problems."

"How to deal with it?"

"For so many years, we have come here like this, can we change?"

As soon as Zhuo Xiaofan's words fell, the people below started talking again.

Zhuo Xiaofan continued: "These Shen Kes are difficult to change, but as long as everyone works together, we can definitely do it. First of all, there is the problem of food. Why can't we grow food in our land? Because our land is too salty, we This piece of salty land needs to be diluted, and the dilution requires water diversion irrigation to dilute it. And diversion irrigation requires us to build canals. This is a big project, and it is difficult for me alone or any race to complete We need the people of all ethnic groups to work together to build the canal.”

"Hehe, young man, building a canal is such a huge project, it takes time and effort, it's not that easy."

"That's right, our Dongchuan is already poor, how can we have so much money?"

As soon as the two patriarchs spoke, everyone started to retreat again.

Zhuo Xiaofan winked at Wu Yong.

Wu Yong stood up and said: "The construction of the canal is a great thing for Dongchuan. To completely change the lives of Dongchuan people, this canal must be built. On behalf of the Wabu and Kana tribes, I will take the lead. Let’s build the canal together, but I also hope that people from other ethnic groups will join in the canal building.”

"Okay, very good. This is a great event that benefits the country and the people, and it is also a common event for people of all ethnic groups, so I hope that all present can send people to participate." Zhuo Xiaofan said loudly.

"It's okay to get ahead, but in the past two years, we have limited food and financial constraints, so we can't afford wages at all."

"Yeah. So do we."

At this time, a remote patriarch said, and his opening resonated again.

Zhuo Xiaofan showed a look of joy on his face, and the matter was more than half settled: "Don't worry, everyone, as long as the various clans are successful, you don't have to worry about the wages and material expenses. All the expenses will be borne by the governor's mansion." .”

"really?"

"That's great."

"That's right, those young people in the clan were already idle, and mobilized, they did another great deed and made some money. How wonderful."

"Well, that's not bad."

This time, Zhuo Xiaofan's words got everyone's response.

Things have been developing in a good direction, Zhuo Xiaofan continued: "There is a lot of salt here, but there is a shortage of grain. Often a load of salt can't exchange much grain. But do you know? Outside of Dongchuan, the exchange of grain and salt The ratio is reversed. If we sell the salt, we can exchange it for more food. It is fundamental for us to grow food, but to turn the saline-alkali land into fertile soil, we need to build canals and then irrigate to dilute the soil. , It can’t be done within two or three years, so we should build roads and exchange salt for food is also our top priority.”

Zhuo Xiaofan's words received more and more people's response.At first, everyone thought that the young governor was unreliable, but now they found that the young governor's ideas were very good and practical.This is much better than the original officials who only knew how to pluck the fat and anointing of the people.

Seeing many people nodding their heads in response, Zhuo Xiaofan continued to speak loudly: "Building canals and roads are two top priorities. In order to do these two things well, I decided to hand over this matter to the patriarchs of Wabu and Kana. ——Wu Yong is in charge."

"Give it to him? Why?" someone questioned.

"What can this young man do well?" Someone immediately echoed.

The dissenting voices that had been suppressed before began to rise again.

Zhuo Xiaofan sent out his voice again with spiritual power to suppress those noises.It's really tiring to speak in this place without amplifying equipment, but fortunately Zhuo Xiaofan is full of spiritual energy, if someone else would have made his voice hoarse.
