Chapter 100 Don’t Come Over Here
Ten brand new bamboo and wooden houses appeared on the open space on the left side of the rattan tribe, each of which could accommodate eight or nine people.
This new house is made of a combination of bamboo and wood. Although it is not very beautiful, it is sturdy.
Eighty-nine former captives lived in these houses.
When the fire began to burn, many people shed tears.
When they were in the Mosquito Tribe, they were kept in captivity as livestock and could only eat some wild grasses and vegetables, or even leaves, every day.
Now, they live in a new and spacious house with a fire pit, food to eat and a clean place to sleep.
Not only that, the Teng tribe also sent them several large pottery tripods so that they could cook their food.
Even in their original tribe, they had never used such a good pottery tripod! "The Teng Tribe is so good, why didn't we come here earlier!"
A man was crying in front of the fire pit because several of his relatives were eaten by the mosquito tribe and they would never see such good days again.
When others heard his crying, they thought of their relatives and tribesmen, and many of them started crying too.
Dongkui didn't cry.
At this moment, she was squatting beside the fire pit, holding a ceramic bowl, and practicing how to use chopsticks.
Chopsticks are tableware that the Teng tribe must learn to use.
Compared to the laborious process of making a wooden or bamboo bowl, firing a ceramic bowl is much easier. Now one kiln in Teng tribe can fire hundreds of ceramic bowls.
So, everyone in the Teng tribe now uses pottery bowls.
Making chopsticks is also a very easy task. All you need is two straight wooden sticks, which you polish smooth.
“Gulp gulp…”
The food in the pottery pot was constantly rolling, and inside it were some plant tubers, some small fish and shrimps, and some wild vegetables.
As these plants were slowly cooked, the rich aroma immediately made the people guarding the fire stop crying.
"Is it cooked?"
A young boy impatiently reached out to grab the long-handled spoon to scoop up the food, but a tall middle-aged man slapped his hand away.
"Don't move, or you won't be able to eat today."
This middle-aged man was the strongest person in the room. Jiang Xuan gave him the power to distribute food to avoid chaos.
There is such a person in every room, and these people temporarily act as managers.
Of course, apart from distributing food, they have no other powers and do the same work as everyone else.
The young man withdrew his hand awkwardly and waited patiently.
When the strong middle-aged man felt that the food in the pottery pot was cooked, he moved the firewood under the pot aside and announced that it was time to eat.
The strong middle-aged man picked up the spoon, scooped a full bowl for himself first, and then scooped for others one by one.
Everyone in the room was holding ceramic bowls and chopsticks, looking at him eagerly, hoping that he could scoop a little more for them.
Unfortunately, the strong middle-aged man did not dare to give more food to anyone, because Jiang Xuan said that if he did not distribute it evenly, everyone in the room could report to Jiang Xuan, and Jiang Xuan would deprive him of the power to distribute food.
This is a relatively primitive supervision system.
Of course, he dared not reduce the amount of food, but more wild vegetables or more fish was within his control.
If he likes someone, he will naturally scoop more fish and shrimp, and if he doesn't like someone, he will scoop more wild vegetables.
Because of this, people in the room did not dare to offend him, and many people even tried to please him.
When it was Dongkui's turn, the strong middle-aged man scooped up some more fish with a smile and said, "Dongkui, eat more fish to nourish your body."
This strong middle-aged man liked Dongkui and wanted to have a baby with her, but was rejected by Dongkui.
If it were in other tribes, the strong middle-aged man would probably use force, but he didn't dare to do so in the Teng tribe.
Another rule that Jiang Xuan set for them was that they could not force others to have relationships with them, and they could not bully girls who were under the age of 18. Otherwise, they would be severely punished or even expelled from the tribe.
Because of this, the strong middle-aged man had no choice but to please Dong Kui and let her agree.
However, Dongkui just smiled, ate all the food, and still refused to agree to him.
Because Dongkui looks down on him.
After arriving at the Teng tribe, Dongkui truly felt the goodness of this tribe, and she hoped to stay here for a long time.
In order to stay in the Teng tribe, she thought about it for a long time and finally came up with a solution, which was to become a partner with the members of the Teng tribe.
She looked around the Teng Tribe and finally set her sights on Jiang Xuan.
If she could become a partner with the chief, she would definitely be able to stay in the Teng tribe! Because of this, Dong Kui rejected all the courtships from strong middle-aged men or other people. She simply looked down on these people.
"call……"
Dong Kui blew on the food in the ceramic bowl, then took a sip of the soup. The soup not only had the taste of wild vegetables and fish, but also a light salty taste.
It's salt!
Dongkui became more determined to stay in the Teng tribe. How could other small tribes live such a good life?
Dongkui cherishes this hard-earned life.
Dong Kui clumsily used the chopsticks and scooped all the food in the bowl into her mouth bit by bit, without wasting even the soup.
After eating, she found that there was still a little oil in the ceramic bowl, so she filled half a bowl of water into the bowl, stirred it with chopsticks, and then drank all the water.
After eating, they took a short break and then went out to work.
Jiang Xuan arranged some people to open up wasteland, some to dig ditches, and some to build roads.
The people in Dongkui's house were responsible for digging ditches. It was hard work, but everyone worked hard because they had all experienced the days when they could die at any time, so what did a little tiredness matter?
…
On August 15th, Jiang Xuan moved into a house in Hsinchu. As the leader, he finally had his own house and didn't have to squeeze with others.
This bamboo house is located in the bamboo forest, next to a stream. It is similar in size to Chishao's bamboo house and also has a yard.
Jiang Xuan made some mud bricks and then raised the new bamboo bed so that it was truly off the ground.
When he lay on the brand new bamboo bed and looked at the spacious room, he felt happy both physically and mentally.
This is his own space, a free space.
He didn't like the feeling of having no privacy when living with everyone.
At night, Jiang Xuan sat leisurely by the fire and grilled meat, the aroma of meat filled the air.
“It smells so good.”
Just then, a voice sounded outside.
"Who is it?"
Jiang Xuan had heard the footsteps a long time ago, but he didn't care because with the divine vine guarding the place, anyone who could come here couldn't be an enemy.
He put down the kebab and opened the door.
Outside the door was Dong Kui holding a torch, and her face looked a little embarrassed.
"Chief, can I come in?"
"It's Dong Kui, come in."
Jiang Xuan sat down by the fire again and asked casually, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
As the leader, people often come to see him, and Jiang Xuan has become accustomed to it.
Dongkui didn't say anything. She stared at the meat on the fire for a long time, swallowing secretly.
Seeing this, Jiang Xuan handed her a skewer and said, "Are you hungry? Eat it, but don't tell others when you go back. It would be bad if everyone came to me to eat some meat."
Dongkui nodded hurriedly, then took the skewer of meat, ate it all up quickly, and wiped the corners of her mouth clean.
"Can we talk about things now?"
Dong Kui put the wooden sticks for the meat in place. She looked at Jiang Xuan with burning eyes and said, "Chief, I want to give birth to a child for you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a grass skirt slipped to the ground.
In the dim firelight, Jiang Xuan was caught off guard and saw things he shouldn't have seen. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
He took a step back, shouting in his heart: Don't come over here...
