Chapter XXXVIII
"Yun, what good things did you get out again? He dragged me over in a hurry, and he didn't make it clear, so he insisted that I ask you personally. ”
Wu struggled to break free of the violent hand, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
Wu was complaining on the surface, but he was actually looking forward to it in his heart, because Fengyun had brought him too many surprises.
He hoped that Fengyun would bring him good news this time.
According to his experience, every time Fengyun comes up with something new, it will be of great help to the tribe, which also makes him more and more convinced that the tribe is really going to be revived.
However, he never had the slightest suspicion about Fengyun.
He firmly believed in the results of divination, believing that Fengyun would lead the tribe to revival, and the people who could lead the tribe to revival would naturally not be ordinary people.
Since he is not an ordinary person, it makes sense to be able to invent something new.
In addition, every time Fengyun came up with something new, he would make some explanations, consciously or unconsciously, what was inspired by something, or even simply a flash of inspiration.
These explanations may not all be very convincing, but it would be different if Wu first had a deep-rooted impression of Fengyun in his mind that he was going to lead the tribe to revival, not ordinary people.
"Wu, I'm going to ask everyone to dig the cellar for me. ”
"What is the cellar?"
Wu looked at Fengyun's eyes, and his eyes revealed a thick expectation.
"The cellar is ......"
Fengyun copied the rhetoric he had just said to Tyrant.
"Yun, you've helped the tribe solve a big problem. I thank you on behalf of all of you. ”
Wu is different from Tyranny, he is convinced of Fengyun's words.
"Wu, you're too polite. I dug the cellar just to keep the food from going bad, and I didn't think too much about it. ”
"It's also very rare, after all, you really help everyone, so that everyone can not go hungry, and even save everyone's life. I ......"
"Wu, don't just talk about the cellar. And the ondol. ”
The violent press couldn't hold back, interrupting Wu's words.
"This is also the invention of the cloud?"
Wu suddenly perked up, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Of course. Otherwise do you think I'm going to drag you over just because of the cellar?"
Violent glared at Wu angrily.
"Yun, what is the fire kang?"
Wu was not angry, and turned his head to look at Fengyun, his eyes revealing an inquiring color.
"The ondol was inspired by the fire pond and built it in the house to ......"
Fengyun explained to Wu in detail the construction of the ondol and the various benefits it could bring.
"The kang is really a good thing, and before winter, I will have everyone in the tribe build a fire kang in their homes. I have to thank you again. With the ondol, children and the elderly can survive the winter safely. ”
"I'm also happy to be able to help the tribe. ”
"Cloud, I have decided to reward you for your contributions to the Tribe. I don't know what you want, say it yourself. As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you. ”
"Wu, since you said so, I really want your help with something. ”
This time Fengyun was not polite.
There was indeed one thing that had been bothering him, and he had wanted to solve it for a long time, but he never found a good opportunity.
"Say it. ”
Wu looked at the wind and clouds, and his tone was full of encouragement.
"I want Wu to send me someone to help me cook. Cooking every day is really time-consuming, and I don't have time for anything else. ”
"No, absolutely not. ”
Without waiting for Wu to respond, Storm jumped out and waved his hand again and again, his attitude was very resolute.
"Storm, you're worried that you won't be able to eat the food that Yun made himself, right?"
Wu glanced at the storm, and immediately pierced his careful thoughts.
"This ...... This one...... I don't believe you don't want to eat the food made by the clouds. ”
"Uncle Tyrant, you don't have to worry. I'll teach the people sent by the witch how to make food. ”
"I'm just worried that the people sent by Wu won't be able to learn well. ”
Storm is still not very reassured.
"The reason why the food I make is delicious is because I am hungry. You have to believe me, I will definitely teach it seriously, otherwise my mouth will not agree, will it?"
"Besides, the food I make is not difficult to learn, as long as you are willing to learn, it will not take long to learn. Besides, it's not like I'll never cook food again, I'll still make it myself whenever I have time. ”
Fengyun tried his best to dispel Tyranny's concerns, and get him to agree to Wu sending someone to cook for them.
He was telling the truth to Wu, cooking did take up too much of his time.
Everyone eats a lot of food, and the amount of food that needs to be cooked is correspondingly large, so it naturally takes more time.
"Wu, all you have to do is send someone over. I will help with food and housing. ”
"That's no problem at all. What kind of person do you want, do you have any special requirements?"
"There are no special requirements, as long as you are not too old. ”
Being young and having a strong ability to learn can help Fengyun get out faster.
He is young and has plenty of physical strength, so he can complete tasks relatively well.
Due to the fact that they eat a lot of food, cooking has become a manual labor, and it is not good to do it if you can't do it physically.
"As soon as I get back, I'll help you find someone. I'm sure you'll be enthusiastic about signing up. ”
Wu agreed very happily.
At this time, people began to move closer.
They all look very weird, with a big bag above their heads, which is completely disproportionate to their bodies, like little ants holding peanuts.
These people were carrying bags of wild vegetables, and they had come to exchange them for fish hooks.
They were not surprised that they had brought the weeds over so quickly.
These wild vegetables are one of the staple foods of people on weekdays, and each family will stock up on a lot.
"Wu, I'm busy. ”
Fengyun greeted Wu and walked over to a clearing.
The clearing is still some distance from the house.
It was deliberately chosen by him.
There are a lot of wild vegetables that can be exchanged for 300 fish hooks, and if you put them near the house, you may not even have time to put your feet on the ground in the end.
The redemption soon began.
They gave Fengyun a certain amount of wild vegetables, which could be exchanged for large or small hooks.
The hooks were placed in a wooden box, held by bamboo, and he would pass them one by one according to Fengyun's instructions.
In the process of exchanging, Fengyun felt a serious disadvantage.
The main focus is on the weighing of wild vegetables.
Even if he had invented a simple balance, it would still be cumbersome to actually operate.
Later, he simply relied on his feelings, lifted it, checked it, and it was almost enough.
Wild vegetables are not a good thing, they are very difficult to collect, and it only takes some time, so there is no objection to his approach.
Be sure to get a better weighing tool.
Fengyun secretly made up his mind that when he had time, he must solve this problem.
He had no doubts about whether he would be able to do it himself.
Although he has never done business, he has bought vegetables.
When you buy groceries, you will definitely come into contact with the scales.
Although most of the vendors used electronic scales before he crossed, when he was a child, he had seen a rod scale and knew its weighing principle.
He believed he could make it up, and it would take him some time at most.
And the measuring tools, he has to get them out.
As for the metrics, it doesn't bother him, he can refer to the standards of his previous life, and that's pretty much it.
The Flame Snake Tribe didn't have any standard weights and measures before, and he could count if he said it himself.
He is also not worried that people will not accept it, and he can ask Wu to help him promote it.
With the wisdom of Wu, he must have understood the benefits of uniform weights and measures, and he would definitely help him to implement them among the tribes.
It didn't take long for the wooden box in Zhu's hand to be empty, and all the three hundred fish hooks had been exchanged.
The wild vegetables piled up in the open space have also turned into a hill.
"Attention, everyone. The redemption conditions have changed, and wild vegetables are no longer accepted. ”
Fengyun raised his voice to ensure that everyone could hear it.
Some of the people who brought wild vegetables but did not change to fish hooks immediately became ugly, and some of them even showed angry faces and glared at Fengyun angrily.
But that's all they can do.
Wu and Tyrant are there, and none of them can afford to provoke them.
"Yun, can you be accommodating? Everyone has brought wild vegetables, and it is not convenient to carry them back. ”
Wu obviously sensed the anger in the crowd, and in order to keep them from resenting Fengyun, he immediately stepped forward to persuade them.
"Okay. I kept your wild vegetables, but I can only exchange them for fifty fish hooks, and I don't interfere with how you distribute them. Also, I don't have a hook in my hand now, so you need to wait a minute, just noon the day after tomorrow. ”
Fengyun deliberately delayed the delivery time, and he wanted people to understand that it was not easy for him to make fish hooks.
Listening to Fengyun's words, people's faces softened, although there was still some stupidity, but it was already much better.
"Now I'm going to find someone to help me with the wild vegetables, and if I'm satisfied, I'll pay for a hundred hooks, but I'll have to wait a while. Which of you would like to help? Raise your hand if you will. ”
Before the words fell, Fengyun's vision was filled with dense arms.
Fengyun took a closer look, and everyone raised their hands, including those who had already exchanged for Fishhooks, wanting to get more Fishhooks.
In order not to offend people, Fengyun temporarily made a lottery holder and asked people to draw lots, and what they got was luck, and no one was to blame if they couldn't draw it.
In the end, fifty people became the lucky ones, and each of them was given two hooks afterwards.
The rest of the people didn't disperse, still looking straight at the storm.
Fengyun was stared at by nearly two thousand pairs of eyes, which was very uncomfortable.
He decided to arrange what he was going to do in advance.
"Don't be disappointed if you don't get the hook. I still have something for your help, and if you do it, I'll still pay you for the hook. ”
"There are two things, one is to dig a cellar, you don't need to know what a cellar is, you just need to know that it is to dig a big hole in the ground, and the reward is four hundred hooks. The other thing is to build a new house, and you need to build me a new house according to my request, and the pay is more generous, which is three thousand hooks. ”
For the sake of fairness, Fengyun discussed with Wu and had a standard for the allocation of places.
Except for those who have already obtained the hooks and those who are involved in the sorting of wild vegetables, each family can contribute a strong laborer to participate in the task of digging cellars and building houses.
