After seeing Qiu Ye off, Meng Yuqing returned to the room, and the system spoke at the right time.
Random task: Teach at least three people in the tribe to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes (completed)
Gain energy, the host can use more energy.
Unfinished tasks:
Random task: teach the tribesmen to weave baskets, bags and so on.
Random task: Teach the tribe to make pottery and wood ash products.
Opening the energy storage space, Meng Yuqing saw that the energy had increased a little compared to before, and he touched his chin.
"System, how far are you from upgrading?" It has been a month since I came to this world. It may not seem like a long time, but it feels like I have experienced a lot.
"According to the system's analysis, the host's contributions to the Qingshan Tribe's military strength, defense, and livelihood, if nothing unexpected happens, will allow the tribe to successfully enter winter and reach the system's second-level standard. However, the host has not yet made any contributions to population growth, and the Qingshan Tribe's population has not yet reached the second-level standard. Therefore, the system cannot be upgraded to the second level."
When hearing the first half, Meng Yuqing's eyes lit up. Upgrading wasn't that difficult, but the system immediately poured cold water on him in the latter part.
"Ah...this population growth is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time. How can there be a significant increase in population without more than ten years?" He frowned and said with some annoyance.
"As long as the host doesn't expand the population by maliciously plundering and harming other tribes, the system will recognize the host's contribution."
"You mean, we can let others join our tribe?" Hearing this, Meng Yuqing propped up his chin thoughtfully. "System, how many people must reach the second level standard?"
"Based on the tribe's comprehensive strength in terms of military power, defense, and livelihood after winter, a tribe with more than a thousand people will reach the level 2 upgrade standard."
The Qingshan tribe now has a total of 821 people, which means that at least 179 people must join the system to be upgraded to level 2 after winter.
Meng Yuqing scratched his head in annoyance. He definitely couldn't wait for the people in the tribe to give birth on their own. He still had to find a way to bring in people from outside, and they had to be reliable people.
If it is someone like the wandering orcs, there is no need to do so. Not to mention that the people in the tribe will not agree, even I cannot find and accept such a person just to upgrade the system.
The system probably won't take this kind of people into account. After all, its goal is to develop the tribe in a healthy way. This kind of people will only destroy the tribe if they enter.
Forget it, I can’t figure it out now. I still don’t understand this world very well.
There's no rush. Take your time. Let's test Xuan's attitude when the time comes. Xuan also hopes that the tribe will be strong, so he shouldn't be opposed to this kind of thing. We can discuss it with him in detail then.
The next day, Meng Yuqing waited for Qiu Ye and the others at the door early as usual.
"Good morning." Meng Yuqing saw them coming and greeted them with a yawn.
"Good morning." Before Qiu Ye could speak, another voice responded.
Meng Yuqing was startled when he heard the voice, which seemed familiar. He opened his half-closed eyes and looked. Huh? It was a familiar face, the sub-beast named Ruya.
He stood beside Qiu Ye, waving at Meng Yuqing and smiling brightly.
He wanted to continue speaking but suddenly seemed to remember something and closed his mouth again, but his eyes were still shining as he looked at Meng Yuqing.
When the others heard Ruya's words, they thought about it and followed his example and said to Meng Yuqing, "Good morning."
To be honest, this scene was a bit embarrassing.
Meng Yuqing touched his nose. Fortunately, Qiuye spoke up in time. He looked at Ronglin and the other two, "We still have some sweet potatoes that we didn't finish planting yesterday. I'm sorry to bother you three. Yuqing wants to teach them how to make something else today, so I have to accompany him."
Ronglin and the other two nodded without saying anything else. They turned around and carried the remaining sweet potatoes into the vegetable garden.
The three people brought by Qiu Yexin all looked at Meng Yuqing with burning eyes. These three newcomers were not very old, just looked like adults, and their personalities were more lively than the three farming people.
Especially Ruya, because he had treated Lie's injuries together with Meng Yuqing before, he was braver. He looked at Meng Yuqing curiously and said.
"What are you going to teach us? We are the best among the young sub-beasts in the tribe." At this point, he seemed to think of something, scratched his head embarrassedly, and blushed, "Except you."
The sudden and direct praise made Meng Yuqing feel a little confused as to what to do.
Qiu Ye watched their interaction with a smile, with no intention of interfering at all.
Yuqing is good in every way except that she is too dull. When Xuan is around, she stays with him every day, thinking about this and that.
Xuan is the same. He just follows others to work every day and doesn't even take them out to play.
He just took Yuqing to hang out with a group of little orcs, and didn't even think about finding some sub-beast playmates of similar age for Yuqing. This really broke Yuqing's father's heart.
Meng Yuqing felt embarrassed by the compliment. He nodded at Ruya, coughed twice, and said to the other two sub-beasts he had never seen before, "What are your names?"
The two sub-beasts immediately answered when they heard Meng Yuqing's question.
"Liuxi."
"Shushu."
"Okay, Ruya, Liuxi, Shushu, and Qiuye, today I'm going to teach you how to make a rattan basket." Meng Yuqing took out the materials he had prepared long ago and handed them to the four of them. "First, identify the materials we'll be using."
As soon as he finished speaking, the three young sub-beasts came forward, surrounded Meng Yuqing, and started chattering.
"They are the leaves of the fork-leaf tree and thin nodes... of bamboo strips." Liuxi took the things from Meng Yuqing's hand and identified them carefully.
