MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 77
When preparing for August, in order to participate in the Bahe Bazaar, Sang Yu has been deliberating for a long time on the list of going out.
Yu was on the way to patrol, and learned from the chat between Qing and others that he needed to stay in the tribe and assist Daxue and several other captains in management.
She couldn't help lowering her brows, and Qing kept showing off in front of a few friends, saying that the leader finally took him out this time, and he went to a big market that everyone had never been to before, and he immediately reaped the rewards. Countless envious eyes.
Yu felt a little sour in her heart, but she knew that Sang Yu's decision seemed soft and random. But in fact, after careful consideration, and beyond doubt, she told herself that she should understand the other party's decision.
So suppressing the discomfort in his heart, he patted the horse and prepared to continue patrolling as if nothing had happened.
He didn't want to let Qing go, but he didn't want to let her go. For some reason, he stopped her and said, "Yu, it seems that the leader didn't arrange for you to go with me this time."
Sang Yu has always taken Shang Yu with her wherever she goes, but this time she didn't. When the others heard Qing say this, they couldn't help but look back at her.
Feather's black eyes stared at Qing, the eyes were full of meaning that didn't match her age, and she said after a while: "I don't know, the leader's list didn't come to me."
Qing was a little displeased by her look, and directly announced loudly, "The traveling personnel have been settled, Erxue, Mei, Zhuang and Gao, and the patron saint."
Except for Zhuang, it was the first time for the others to go to the market.
This is indeed in line with Sang Yu's usual arrangement strategy, let those who have never been out before go out to gain knowledge. Now hearing Zhuang's list, Yu felt that it was an established fact that he would not go.
"Have you settled down? Then congratulations."
After Yu finished speaking, Damaqian ignored him, but the condescending look in his eyes made Qing extremely uncomfortable. But the other party restrained and forbeared in speaking, he couldn't fault it, so he had to give up.
At night, when the two were going to sleep, Sang Yu felt the quiet body around her as usual, and asked, "The travel list for the autumn fair is out, do you know it?"
In the darkness, what responded to her was a soft hum.
Sang Yu turned sideways, stroked her hair lightly, and said, "Then you don't have anything to ask me?"
"No…"
It didn't seem like she was angry, Sang Yu was a little relieved that the child had grown up and didn't make any trouble because of it, and the words he had prepared to coax her were no longer useful.
But after thinking about it, he explained: "I am most worried about the tribe when I go out this time. Now that the tribe has iron tools, everyone starts to swell. At the beginning of the year, there was a big incident at the beginning of the year, and the impact has not disappeared. During the time we left, something happened in the tribe again."
"I don't trust many people in the tribe. You are one, and the three Daxue sisters, and Xiang, are all from your mother's side. But I have only recently begun to hand over power to them. They are now basically Still not stable."
"As for Yan, he revolves around his daughter in everything. We can't guarantee that someone with a heart will take advantage of him to make a fuss."
"The flowers, plants and sparrows are all towards me, but their influence is still a bit small. So I need you to stay and help look after the tribe, can you understand?"
Although the little girl is young, she is ruthless. Almost everyone in the tribe has seen her skills, and no one wants to provoke this little Hades.
Only then did Yu slowly turn around.
"I know, you don't have to tell me so much...I...just worry about you, it's harder outside than in the tribe...dangerous..."
When Sang Yu heard this, he also sighed.
In this regard, there is no one more suitable to be by her side than Yu.
The little girl said again: "Mei can, she will protect you."
"how do you know?"
"I watched her."
The word "observation" was learned from Sang Yu.
When Sang Yu heard the little girl say this, she burst out laughing: "Are you okay to observe what she is doing?"
"She is a member of my bow and arrow team. I taught her how to shoot. She has good accuracy. And my bow and arrow are rebuilt by her. It is very easy to use. The string is very stretched, and it is much easier to use than the previous one."
Sang Yu didn't expect that they would have such an intersection in private.
I used to think that my little girl was so cold on the surface and didn't like to make friends. Look, now there is someone she admires.
"Have you made new friends?"
Yu didn't know what to answer for a long time, and finally said: "I don't know, she is nice anyway."
At this time, Sang Yu got back to business, "Did you change the material of your bow and arrow after rebuilding it?"
"Well, she said to replace it with sheep intestines, but she said that it should be replaced with mine."
Sang Yu was startled. She had learned by accident that after twisting and drying fresh sheep intestines, they could be turned into strings worth a thousand dollars. She never thought that people in the tribe could use them to make bowstrings.
However, there were few sheep in the tribe, and there were only a few times when the sheep were actually slaughtered and eaten. Mei was able to get the intestines from Yuan, and her communication skills were not bad.
She had to take advantage of this time to go out together, communicate with Mei, and see if she had any surprises that she didn't know about.
"The bowstring you praised must be a good bow. This girl is a good seed of a craftsman."
After Sang Yu finished speaking, he suddenly smiled again: "I didn't expect that you not only performed well yourself, but also helped me find talents, but would you feel sad to see others perform better than you?"
Yu put his head under his head and said indifferently: "In the past, if you want to survive, you have to rely on hunting. Whoever can beat the best in the tribe is the most powerful person. Of course I want to be the most powerful one."
"But now in the tribe, you don't have to hunt to survive. Some people build houses. Some people farm the land, and some iron and milk cows. I only have one hand. I can't learn so many skills. I just need to be the best in the same way."
Sang Yu pointedly said: "Then what if someone is better at archery than you?"
Yu snorted softly in his nose: "I haven't seen anyone who is better at archery than me, neither now nor in the future."
Hearing that she was so conceited, Sang Yu couldn't help but slapped her on the shoulder and said, "Being modest makes people progress, and pride makes people lag behind."
It's a pity that it was not adopted, and it was pushed back directly.
"It's fake to pretend you're not great even though you're very good at it."
Sang Yu smiled and told her that the word "hypocrisy" should be used to express the meaning of what she just said, and agreed with her opinion, and then raised her mouth again.
"He wants to protect you, but he doesn't have the ability."
Such an evaluation can be said to not show mercy to old friends at all.
I don't want to say more if I ask again.
But her evaluation is indeed pertinent. Qing is not good at riding and shooting, nor is it good at melee combat, that is, she has some experience in domestication.
Sang Yu plans to open a racecourse in the future, so he will be called there to take care of this aspect.
Yu didn't know what was going on in her heart, so she couldn't help but add another sentence, "If you sleep outside, don't be next to him."
Sang Yu smiled, "I don't always sleep with you when I go out."
"I didn't go out this time, who knows if he will take the initiative to come over."
"There are Erxue and Mei, and Siya. I will guard Siya, and no one can get close to me."
As Sang Yu spoke, she couldn't help but said, "I still want you to go..."
Yu suddenly didn't know what to say.
Logically speaking, shouldn't he come back crying, begging the leader to arrange to follow him?
How did it become now? After the leader of his family analyzed the situation. Then he said it irrationally.
So did she take advantage of the situation and propose to go, or stay and guard the rear according to the previous arrangement?
It's just that this time Qing went, Yu felt as if he was scratching his heart when he thought about it, and wished he could just guard Sang Yu, always guarding against his intentional or unintentional approach.
"With Siya here, nothing major will happen. There are many people in the tribe, so I'll help you guard it." She finally said this.
Yu suddenly felt that the new words he had just learned could be used, and he became hypocritical, obviously wanting to go. But in order to reassure her, he still said something against his will.
In the darkness, the two were silent for a while. Just when Yu thought she was going to fall asleep, the woman's soft voice came again.
"Why do I feel that you are a little impatient with Qing, even when I mention him, you are not happy."
"..." Yu is actually very unwilling to talk too much about this person during the time when the two of them are alone, "Who am I not like this?"
Sang Yu laughed immediately, "No, it's not like that with you, and it's not like that with me."
Speaking of this, he could already hear the resistance in Yu's words, so he stopped asking.
These young people, at such an age, the girl Huaichun is young and sentimental, and it is inevitable that they will have all kinds of thoughts. As a lonely old man, I may not be able to understand their feelings.
But I think of the little girl who sticks to me every day. If my heart fluctuates for other people, I just feel uncomfortable.
Sure enough, if a person has been obedient to himself for too long, he will easily treat the other party as a personal item. Whether it's coveted by people outside or the girl's looseness, she always has a feeling that her own things are being spied on.
And if she was not allowed to go to the market with her before, she would definitely be sullen and unhappy.
Now not only does she not look unhappy, but she keeps trying to persuade her to go out with peace of mind, which makes Sang Yu feel a little uncomfortable.
Is it because gradually growing up, there will be gaps gradually?
For a while, I suddenly felt that the things that were tightly grasped in my hands were struggling out of control.
I couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.
Sang Yu wanted to ask her clearly, but she didn't know what to ask, so she finally said good night to her without any trace, and went to sleep.
However, when the sound of the other party's even breathing came, she didn't feel sleepy, and she lifted the animal skin on her stomach a little irritably, trying to dissipate the stuffy heat on her body.
The mood was not very beautiful, but some voices from the nearby bamboo house made her even more uneasy.
Primitive people didn't have much nightlife. Therefore, they are more keen on some night sports. Fortunately, after rescuing the slaves from the Eagle tribe, they built a new group of bamboo houses, and all the big guys moved there, so Sangyu didn't have to be bothered by these raucous sounds.
But now with the birth of children one after another, the thatched shed is not enough. Therefore, Sangyu also allowed the family to move to these old bamboo houses near her for a period of time.
It was okay in the past, and I fell asleep when I was so tired from work that I didn't pay attention so much.
It's just that copying books recently will inevitably be disturbed.
Sang Yu didn't feel ashamed about such things. After all, the behavior of human reproduction runs through the whole ancient and modern times. This is a normal state and a necessary stage of life continuation.
In the past, she could just plug her ears and ignore it.
But these two nights felt particularly disturbing.
She looked directly at the black roof, feeling the irritability and forbearance in her heart.
After an unknown amount of time, she turned over and slowly approached the other side of the bed. After smelling the sweet smell of the girl, those messy moods finally began to slowly return to normal.
After getting back to normal, my mind began to think about the preparations to go to the Bahe Market, and how to arrange things in the tribe before going.
…
Until the day before departure, Sang Yu readjusted the travel list, including nearly thirty people including Er Xue, Mei, Qing, Gao, Jiao and Yu, and Si Ya and Mao Mao.
Because nearly two hundred slaves were to be purchased. If the guards are not effective, it is easy to have an accident on the way.
A small team leader meeting was held, and everyone was asked to take good care of the tribe during the month of his absence, and not to slack off in all work as usual.
As early as April, the underground drainage project has been completely completed, and the construction team has now turned to the construction of brick and tile houses. In less than three months, dozens of houses have been completed, and the brick and tile houses have already been lived in. is just around the corner.
Sang Yu explained that during this period of time, in addition to continuing to build brick houses, a group of people will also be assigned to build another camp for newcomers and build grass sheds. If they can buy slaves when they go out this time, they can live in them directly when they return. Great for pacifying and transforming slaves.
After making these arrangements, it was announced that Daxue, Yan and Miao would be responsible for the three major matters of production, military affairs and security respectively during this period of time. If decisions needed to be made on related matters, their consent was required.
As for Gao and Jiao, she has a different evaluation of them than ordinary people. Both of them have been bewitched by tourists.
Although there is no rebellion, but the mentality is not firm enough, and it is easy to cause trouble if it is left behind, it is better to take it with you and watch it.
Yu, the value of force should not be underestimated, and he knows how to adapt, so he still follows him.
Well, it's her who can't live without her.
Those who remained in the tribe were also relatively firm and pure in thought.
Needless to say, Sister Daxue and Xiang are all of one mind with her.
Zhi, Liu, Ci, as well as flowers, grass, and sparrows are unswerving supporters of Sangyu, and Miao is an absolute supporter like a mad dog. These people have certain rights in the tribe, so let them stay behind. Sang Yu felt really at ease now.
Zhuang is a simple person, he listens to his mother in everything, and his big sword is enough to deter half of the people in the tribe.
Yan has firm willpower, and would rather hurt himself than betray the tribe easily. His daughter is now a loyal fan of Sang Yu, and there is no omission in this line.
Arranged like this, it's done.
When setting off, when Dang Qing saw Yu in the team, her eyes were slightly surprised.
He didn't know, since she wasn't on the list at the beginning, why now the leader has arranged for her again, he just felt that his ears were so hot at this time, it was really uncomfortable.
But Yu was carrying a big bow on his back, and stood beside Sang Yu calmly, without giving him a look.
It was Mei who was at the side, who was pulling her and didn't know what to say.
Thirty people and ten horses, but the horses are not used for riding, but for pulling goods.
There are not enough horses, and manpower must be fully utilized to carry goods in turns.
This time, if we want to buy two hundred slaves, we must bring a lot of things to exchange.
Salt was too precious and eye-catching, and Sang Yu didn't dare to bring salt to trade, lest it arouse the covetousness of other big tribes.
The main products are pottery and dried meat.
For the convenience of carrying, these pottery are of different sizes, and they are placed one by one in thatch, making the best use of the space.
Going this way, you have to meet up with the rock tribe first, and then go together, so that everyone's personal and cargo safety is guaranteed to a certain extent.
Ya set out with fifteen people, and brought some bone knives and stone knives they made.
They have also tamed three horses now, and they have relatively few things. They can transport goods by horses, and they only need to concentrate on driving.
When the two sides got together, they formed a caravan of more than forty people, heading towards the Bahe market.
