Chapter 138 Would you like to join our tribe?
Si Yu brought back seeds, and the Qiuyu tribe was very happy.
But there are hidden worries in the joy.
Are they really going to accept the Fireworks Tribe?
"Chief, have you asked the goddess? What did she say?" a tall and thin woman asked.
Others also followed the reputation.
Si Yu opened her mouth and wanted to convey Chen Jinyue's words verbatim.
But he thought it was too absurd, so he changed his excuse, "The goddess said that if we accept the Fireworks Tribe, she will continue to protect us and perhaps even give us offspring!"
Everyone was delighted, "Really? The goddess is really willing to give us offspring?!"
Their tribe has not had enough food and clothing in the past two years, and there are very few new offspring.
Other tribes spread rumors that they were about to be abandoned by God.
Now that they have received such a promise, everyone has ignited hope.
Si Yu smiled and nodded.
She thought, first she would order them to do as the goddess said, and when they really had children, she would convey the goddess' words.
That’s when people were more accepting…
At noon that day, the chief of the Fireworks Tribe arrived.
The man was tall, with dark skin, perfect muscle tones, and full of primitive wildness.
He had a silent expression and entered the Qiuyu tribe with caution, looking around calmly.
People from other tribes hated them.
It was very unusual for the Qiuyu tribe to contact him at this time.
However, upon entering Xueju, Si Yu's first words were even more incredible to him, "Chief Ji Shuo, are you willing to join our tribe?"
Ji Shuo, “???”
He was stunned by this sentence.
They have already accepted that everyone on this continent looks down on them and no one will accept them.
He was prepared to lead the people of the tribe to survive even without inheritance.
Now suddenly there is a tribe inviting him to join?
Even if the Qiuyu tribe is weak, it is still a tribe with hope...
"Are you inviting me? Or our tribe?" Ji Shuo suddenly realized a problem.
Could it be that his hunting ability caught the attention of the Qiuyu tribe?
If you just fancy him, he will refuse.
Because there was no way he was going to abandon his tribe.
Si Yu said, "I'll invite your entire tribe."
Ji Shuo was shocked. "Do you know how many people there are in our tribe?"
Si Yu already knew this, "Three hundred and twenty-six people in total."
If she only relied on this year's income, she wouldn't even be able to support the people in her own tribe, let alone more than 300 people.
But it’s different when the goddess is here!
They can exchange food with the goddess!
"You don't have to answer me in a hurry. You can go back and discuss it with the people in the tribe."
…
The Fireworks Tribe was in an uproar because of a piece of news.
There is actually a tribe willing to accept them?
"This must be a trick!" a short man said excitedly.
These tribes usually look at them with disdain, so how could they make such a decision?
Even his maternal family, the Jiang clan, felt that he was a disgrace, as they abandoned him due to lack of food. Now this tribe must have some ulterior motive!
An older man spoke slowly, "I heard that some time ago, the Scorching Sun Tribe united with other tribes and refused to lend the Autumn Rain Tribe their farm tools?"
"No wonder!" The short man seemed to have found a reason. "Are they interested in our farm tools?"
The old man shook his head. "They recently borrowed farm tools, but they had a conflict with the Scorching Sun Tribe yesterday, and many people were injured."
The short man said, "So they want to take us as slaves to help them guard the food?"
"That must be the case! I knew they wouldn't accept us for no reason!"
"Maybe they'll even ask us to help them gather food! Let us go hunting!"
“…”
A group of people were talking at once, their words full of suspicion and distrust.
In fact, it is not their fault. After all, those who have fallen into this tribe and gathered together have been abandoned by their own mother tribe.
They have seen too much evil, so they don't believe that good things will happen to them.
Amidst these indignant voices, a weak voice was heard.
"Actually, just letting us guard, harvest, and hunt doesn't count as enslaving us, right?"
Everyone turned to look at him.
The young man shrank his neck. "Isn't it?"
"You're right. Joining any tribe requires labor. Even in our own tribe, we have to hunt." Ji Shuo said.
The scene fell silent.
Everyone looked at each other, as if trying to find reasons to object.
But in reality, the desire in his eyes was extremely strong.
Even the short man who made the most noise was very eager to be accepted.
"Chief, I agree to join. I was once a lowly slave in another tribe. Later, I was expelled because I fainted from hunger due to lack of food. Now, no one would accept me as a slave..."
In the current Fireworks Tribe, they can also earn enough food and clothing through labor.
But without roots to rely on, it is like duckweed floating in the wind, miserable and destitute, inferior to others in every way.
"I agree. It can't be much worse." A man of few words suddenly spoke.
"I listen to the chief. If the chief agrees, I agree!"
"Me too!"
“…”
Everyone's eyes were on Ji Shuo.
Ji Shuo turned his head and fixed his gaze on the short man who objected the most.
The man hesitated for a long time before speaking, "I can agree, but can they let us eat? Hunting is hard work! We can't bring back prey without eating!"
He can accept doing a lot of work, but he cannot accept not being given food.
Seeing that no one objected, Ji Shuo spoke in a low voice and said something that shocked everyone even more.
"Chief Si Yu said that he would treat us the same as his own people!"
“!!!”
They are treated the same, not as slaves.
…
After Chen Jinyue sent Si Yu away, he took a nap and received feedback from Wan Kui when he woke up.
As for the nanny, the platform will deal with it seriously and provide corresponding compensation.
Then he reflected on himself and said that he would screen carefully next time.
Chen Jinyue thought about the last time Manager Zhang hesitated to speak, and replied, "I won't look for it for now. I'll see what the situation is."
After sending the message, she called Manager Zhang.
"Hello?"
"The nanny I found before wasn't suitable. Do you have any reliable people to recommend?"
“…”
Manager Zhang obviously knew what happened last night.
Just as he was about to call her to tell her about this, he hurriedly asked, "Do you remember the Chen family's nanny? Aunt Tang?"
Chen Jinyue was slightly stunned. "How could I not remember? I was deeply impressed."
Aunt Tang was different from the Chen family. She sympathized with her situation at home and took care of her in every way.
Once, Chen Jie exchanged the gift that Chen Jianguo prepared for a client and took it to school to show off to his classmates.
Chen Jianguo had just lost the cooperation that time and came back furious.
Chen Jie knew he was in trouble and skillfully put the blame on Chen Jinyue.
That time, Chen Jinyue was beaten so badly that he almost lost half his life. When Aunt Tang saw it after buying groceries, she didn't think much about it and just said that she saw Chen Jie taking it away.
This action did not calm Chen Jianguo down, but instead made Chen's mother hate her.
Saying she is a traitor.
Later, her salary was reduced and she was given a lot of inexplicable work. The next day after she couldn't stand it anymore and voluntarily resigned, she was discovered stealing by the Chen family.
The case was reported to the police station, and the Chen family had to pay a large sum of money...
