So here comes the problem.
What would humans play in the tribal era?
Too complicated and brain-intensive will not work, it must be in line with the times and environmental background. It's best to be able to play as soon as you play, you will become addicted in a while, and you can play without thinking.
Lu Yao thought about it.
Mahjong, no, it's too complicated.
Playing cards doesn't work either, for the same reason.
chess? It's hard for them too.
Lu Yao found that there was only one that was most suitable.
dice.
Lu Yao personally doesn't like this kind of gambling toys.
However, there is a gambling side in human nature. Adventure treasure hunting is a kind of gambling, and exploring the unknown is also a kind of gambling. This is something that cannot be denied.
The dice, with different numbers engraved on the six sides, are easy to understand.
Lu Yao checked relevant information on the Internet.
As early as the Neolithic Age, humans began to play a board game, which is the ancestor of today's board games. In various board games, dice are needed as an important prop.
Now that the garlic tribe has mastered arithmetic, such simple numbers should not be a big problem.
Lu Yao immediately went out and bought a stone dice from the jewelry store opposite the community. As soon as he got home, he passed the stone dice into the temple.
In the temple, Shahan, the old astrologer who had been silent for a long time, excitedly raised his arms and looked up at the dome of the temple.
"God, do you hear our prayers? At last you see your little servant again..."
An exclamation point appeared above Shahan's head.
"Is this [Dice]?"
"God, you gave us the gift of [Dice], do you want us to learn how to divination fate?"
"You are so kind, so wise..."
He was flattering wildly, but Lu Yao clenched his toes in embarrassment.
These dice are not used for divination at all.
It is true that astrologers have occupational diseases.
No wonder Shahan stayed in the temple for so many years, and the simulator didn't give any hint that he could transform into a prophet.
Shahan somewhat lacked a relationship with the job of a prophet.
Fortunately, although the astrologer misunderstood, most people quickly understood the role of dice.
[The Garlic Tribe has learned how to make and use dice. ]
"This one can generate numbers, big and small."
"Yes, you can compare the size! I am bigger than you, hey! I am six and you are two! Win!"
"Come again!"
"You still have to lose, forget it, it's no fun to win."
"Come back! Give it another shot!"
Most tribal villains quickly understood the meaning of the different numbers on the six sides of the dice. Random jumping of numbers will produce different results, which can be applied to many things.
Lu Yao noticed the three villains.
The three of them hid in a corner and were discussing a major matter.
"It's the same as what was agreed before. Let's do it tonight, steal a galley, steal it and go, sell the seashells. Take the seashells to Donghai's island, where no one knows what we have done."
One of them said, "But if we stole the boat, who will we sell it to?"
"..."
The man continued to ask: "If we sell the boat to the merchant, how can we get to the island in the sea? Do we want to steal another boat?"
"..."
"..."
"Idiot, why didn't you say it sooner!"
"I just remembered."
"You idiot brain!"
"sorry!"
The three were silent for a while.
"What should we do now?"
The third person said: "... let the gods guide us, use this dice, the gods bestow it."
"Will the gods guide us to steal the ship?"
The leader said again: "Idiot! God knows everything, but he hasn't struck us with lightning so far. He must support us! God supports us in stealing the ship, what are we afraid of!"
Before he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning fell on the villain's head, splitting him into flying ashes.
Lu Yao moved his fingers.
You ask me if I support it? Of course I don't support it.
Stealing a boat doesn't really matter. But it's the first time I've seen such an outrageous request, so I'll be merciful and satisfy you.
The other villains were so frightened that they knelt down and begged, trembling all over.
"My lord, let's change it right away, we'll change it right away."
"We were wrong, we were wrong."
Lu Yao has already shifted his gaze to other places.
There are two pixel villains chatting by the woods.
A man named Mu Ke said: "You give me a child!"
The woman named Haiwanggu said, "Are you stupid?"
"Didn't you say you liked me?"
"Just talking for fun."
"Why?"
"You are too young."
Lu Yao took a look.
Mu Ke was twelve years old, but Hai Wanggu was twenty-two. The age gap between siblings is a bit big.
You can tell from the surnames that Mu Ke is a descendant of a carpenter, and Hai Wanggu is a descendant of the Donghai family.
"I only want you to give birth to me, and before I grow up, don't give birth to others, okay?"
A crying face appeared above the young Mu Ke's head.
"..."
Hai Wanggu said: "Then listen to the will of the gods. You use the [dice] bestowed by the gods. If you can hit 1 points three times in a row, it means that this is the destiny guided by the gods. I will agree to you."
Mu Ke took out a dice and threw a 3.
"Cut down the tree well, fool."
Hai Wanggu turned and left.
The young Mu Ke knelt on the ground: "Why, why is this happening!"
"God, god, why can't you give me some kindness and blessings! I just want to sleep with Haiwanggu and have a baby, why can't you help me..."
"God, you are too cruel!"
Lu Yao laughed.
Children, although you are very brave.
But you are still too young at this age, cut trees well and don't think about it.
The pixel villains of the garlic tribe generally understand dice, but most of the time they are used to resolve disputes, as the name suggests - to use the guidance of the gods to decide who is right and who is wrong.
This deviates from Lu Yao's original idea of entertainment.
While he was observing the appearance of all living beings, a large-scale fighting suddenly broke out in the tribe.
The two groups of villains didn't know why, but they fought with bows and spears. As more and more people join in, the chaos escalates further.
The two leaders, Mori Jian and Yulian, rushed to stop them.
"What the hell is going on? What are you doing?"
The wizard Senjian is now a highly respected elder in the tribe. As soon as he stepped forward, the riot was quickly contained.
"Businessmen are horrible!"
"That's right, they made us lose everything!"
"Yep!"
"Businessmen are disgusting!"
A group of villains have different opinions.
Lu Yao checked the statements of many villains, and then he clarified the whole story.
The reason is this.
Fishermen who go out to sea have salvaged some beautiful corals and shells in ocean fishing, and these things are of great value. After returning, the merchants bought it at a very low price, and then sold it to Yanchi at a high price, making a fortune.
Not only that, the merchants also forged seashells, mixing fake seashells with real seashells, causing fishermen to lose money inside and out.
The fishermen finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked the merchant to return the seashells to them. The merchants refused, and the fishermen attacked in anger.
This large-scale brawl is a complete outbreak of dissatisfaction and anger of fishermen who have been cheated by businessmen for a long time.
Lu Yao wanted to see how the tribe would deal with this matter.
As long as there are many people, there will always be people who want to go wrong to obtain excess profits. This kind of thing cannot be completely eliminated for the time being, and can only be restrained by various means and rules to protect people's legitimate interests.
To Lu Yao's surprise, a businessman stood up and expressed his willingness to pay all the losses of the fishermen before the leaders made a verdict.
It's a hero business.
Shang Li said: "In order to make the transaction more fair and equitable, I hope that the leaders can formulate a rule. If the transaction loss is caused by deceit and concealment, it needs to pay compensation to the other party."
"Correspondingly, if the price is only too high but both parties agree, then the transaction is legitimate and is recognized and protected by the entire tribe."
"I made a lot of records based on the problems in the tribal transactions over the years, and I also wrote my personal thoughts. I also asked the two leaders to look at it."
Shangli took out a small notebook.
Mori Jian and Yu Lian looked at it for a while, and exclamation marks appeared above their heads.
"very good!"
"Well written!"
They discussed with Shangli for a while.
A new prompt appeared on the screen.
[Shang Li wrote the "Tribal Trading Code". ]
[The Garlic tribe invented the law. ]
[The Garlic tribe has learned to formulate and implement laws, and everyone's intelligence has improved slightly. ]
Lu Yao took a sip of tea and nodded secretly.
This business is a talent.
He and Yulian will be the future of the tribe.
