Ten brand new bamboo and wooden houses appeared in the open space on the left side of the rattan tribe, each of which can accommodate eight or nine people.
This new house is made of bamboo and wood. Although it is not very beautiful, it is better than strong.
Eighty-nine former prisoners lived in these houses.
When the fire pit started to burn blazingly, many people shed tears.
When they were in the Mosquito tribe, they were raised as livestock and could only eat some wild grasses and vegetables and even leaves a day.
Now, they live in a brand new and spacious house, with a fire pit, food to eat, and a clean place to sleep.
Not only that, the Vine tribe also sent several large pottery tripods so that they could cook and eat.
Even in their original tribe, they have never used such a good pottery tripod!
"The Vine Tribe is so great, why didn't we come here earlier!"
A man stood by the fire pit and cried loudly because several of his relatives had been eaten by the mosquito tribe, and he would never see such a good life again.
When other people heard his cry, they also thought of their relatives and tribesmen, and many people also started crying.
Mallow didn't cry.
At this time, she was holding a pottery bowl, squatting next to the fire pit, and practicing how to use chopsticks.
Chopsticks are tableware that the Vine tribe requires you to learn how to use.
Compared with laboriously making a wooden or bamboo bowl, it is easier to make pottery bowls. Now the Teng tribe can fire hundreds of pottery bowls in one kiln.
Therefore, everyone in the Vine tribe now uses pottery bowls.
Making chopsticks is also a very easy task. You only need two small straight wooden sticks and polish them smooth.
"Gurgling..."
Food is constantly tumbling in the pottery tripod, and what is cooked inside is some plant tubers, some small fish and shrimps, and some wild vegetables.
When these plants are slowly cooked, the rich fragrance immediately makes those guarding the fire pit stop crying.
"Are you done yet?"
A young boy eagerly reached out to grab a long-handled spoon to scoop out food, but a tall middle-aged man slapped his hand away.
"Don't move, or you won't even think about eating today."
This middle-aged man was the strongest person in the room. Jiang Xuan gave him the power to distribute food to avoid chaos.
In every room, there is a person like this, and these people temporarily act as managers.
Of course, apart from distributing food, they do not have any other power, and their work is the same as everyone else.
The young man retracted his hand and waited patiently.
After the strong middle-aged man felt that the food in the pot was cooked, he moved the firewood under the pot aside and announced that dinner was ready.
The strong middle-aged man picked up the spoon, scooped a full bowl for himself first, and then scooped out the bowl for others one by one.
Everyone in the room was holding pottery bowls and chopsticks, looking at him eagerly, hoping that he would scoop more for themselves.
Unfortunately, the strong middle-aged man did not dare to scoop more food for anyone, because Jiang Xuan said that if he distributed the food unevenly, everyone in the room could report it to Jiang Xuan, and Jiang Xuan would deprive him of the right to distribute food.
This is a relatively primitive supervision system.
Of course, he doesn't dare to eat less food, but whether it's more wild vegetables or more fish is within his control.
Those he likes will naturally scoop out more fish and shrimps, and those he dislikes will scoop out 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 Mallow's turn, the strong middle-aged man scooped up more fish with a smile and said: "Mallow, eat more fish to replenish your body."
This strong middle-aged man likes Magnolia and wants to have children with her, but he is rejected by Magnolia.
If it were in other tribes, a strong middle-aged man would probably use Qiang, but in the Vine tribe he would not dare.
Another rule Jiang Xuan set for them is that they cannot forcefully have sex with others, let alone bully underage girls, otherwise they will be severely punished and even expelled from the tribe.
Because of this, the strong middle-aged man had no choice but to please Dong Kui and make her agree.
However, Dong Kui just smiled and ate all the food, but still refused to agree to him.
Because Dong Kui doesn’t like him.
After coming to the Vine Tribe, Dong Kui truly felt how good this tribe was, and she hoped to stay in this tribe for a long time.
In order to stay in the Vine Tribe, she thought about it for a long time and finally came up with a way, which was to become a partner with a member of the Vine Tribe.
She searched around the Vine Tribe and finally fixed her sights on Jiang Xuan.
If she can become a partner with the leader, she will definitely stay in the Vine Tribe!
Because of this, when faced with the advances of strong middle-aged men or other people, Dong Kui rejects them all. She does not like these people at all.
"Huh..."
Magnolia blew the food in the earthenware bowl, and then took a sip of the soup. The soup not only had the taste of wild vegetables and fish, but also had a light salty taste.
It's salt!
Dong Kui is more determined to stay in the Teng tribe. How can other small tribes live such a good life?
Magnolia cherishes this hard-won life.
Magnolia clumsily held the chopsticks and scooped all the food in the bowl into her mouth bit by bit, without even wasting the soup.
After eating, she found that there was still a little oil in the pottery bowl, so she filled half a bowl of water into the bowl, stirred it with chopsticks, and drank all the water.
After eating, they took a short rest and then went out to work.
Jiang Xuan arranged for some people to clear wasteland, some people to dig ditches, and some people to build roads.
The people in Dongkui's house are responsible for digging ditches, which is very hard, but everyone works hard, because they have experienced the days of death at any time, so what's the point of being a little tired?
……
On August 15th, Jiang Xuan moved to a house in Hsinchu. As a leader, he finally had his own house and didn't have to squeeze in with other people.
This bamboo house is located in a bamboo forest, next to a stream. It has similar specifications to Chishao's bamboo house and also has a yard.
Jiang Xuan made some mud bricks and then raised the Hsinchu bed, truly off the ground.
When he was lying on the brand new bamboo bed and looking at the spacious room, he felt happy both physically and mentally.
This is his own space, a free space.
When he lived with everyone, there was no privacy, and he didn't like that feeling.
At night, Jiang Xuan sat leisurely by the fire pit and ate barbecue. The aroma of the meat was overflowing.
"It smells so good."
At this moment, a voice sounded outside.
"Who?"
Jiang Xuan had heard the footsteps a long time ago, but he didn't care, because with the protection of the divine vine, anyone who could come here couldn't be the enemy.
He put down the kebab and opened the door.
Outside the door is Magnolia holding a torch, her face a little embarrassed.
"Chief, can I go in?"
"It's mallow, come in."
Jiang Xuan sat by the fire pit again and asked casually: "What do you want from me?"
As a leader, Jiang Xuan is used to people often coming to look for him.
Dong Kui didn't speak. She stared at the meat on the fire for a long time and swallowed secretly.
Seeing this, Jiang Xuan handed a bunch of meat to her and said, "Are you hungry? Eat it, but don't tell other people when you go back after eating it. It would be bad if everyone came to me to eat the meat."
Dong Kui nodded hurriedly, then took the meat skewers, quickly ate them all, and wiped the corners of her mouth clean.
"Can we talk about things now?"
Dong Kui put away the wooden sticks for skewering meat. She looked at Jiang Xuan with burning eyes and said, "Chief, I want to give you a child!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an animal skin coat fell directly to the ground.
Under the dim firelight, Jiang Xuan saw something he shouldn't have seen without any precautions. He was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.
