Chapter 40 Decisions
The sun was setting in the west, and the sky soon fell silent.
Due to the large number of people, Lu Ning reactivated the campfire that had not been lit for a long time.
Speaking of which, as the weather gets warmer, the recent fireplace in the fireplace can make the house a little too hot.
Especially when the fireplace is connected to the ondol, it is even more difficult to top.
The fireplace had to be extinguished and the fire moved somewhere else.
Thinking so, Lu Ning entered the house, separated a fire from the fireplace and put it in the stone pit, used the hay he had collected to make the fire burn, and added firewood to the campfire.
Since the weather was no longer cold, the blazing campfire was a little too scorching at this point.
A cloud of smoke rose into the sky, and a cauldron was made of stones on the campfire, in which fragrant stewed meat and various vegetables were boiled.
The crowd sat around the campfire, complaining to each other, sometimes laughing.
In the past few months, everyone's life has experienced a roller coaster between life and death, and this scene can make even the strongest person shed tears.
Chang Jiang was bragging with Ye Rang Qin Ke, the fishing girl was quietly watching the fire, and the big strong man was talking to his wife and father-in-law, wiping two tears from time to time.
Lu Ning sat alone.
Although he was the master of the camp, he was sitting silently in the shadows drinking broth like a marginal man at this time.
In fact, he is not a person who likes to be lively in the first place, and he is also the type of person who often forgets his existence in the company.
Rather than participating in this lively atmosphere, Lu Ning prefers to watch and observe all this from the side.
The whole camp was more lively than ever.
Just when Lu Ning was drinking soup, the big strong man led his family to Lu Ning.
"That, Mr. Yakushi......"
The big man spoke.
Lu Ning raised his head when he heard the voice, and pointed at himself a little confused.
What is Mr. Yakushi's name?
"We heard from Boss Ye and Brother Chang Jiang that those medicines were provided by you in order to help other survivors from the Blue Sea Starfish."
Lu Ning shook his head and denied: "I didn't give it to you for nothing. Everyone exchanges interests, and there is nothing to help or not. β
Su Ri'an said so, but we all knew it in our hearts.
"At the end of the day, you saved us, and especially my family, whose lives were saved thanks to your medicines.
"Really, very, thank you very much for your kindness."
The big man took the lead, and together with his family, bowed deeply to Lu Ning.
Lu Ning turned sideways a little awkwardly, but he still didn't dodge after all.
After all, it is also a piece of the other party's heart.
And he really wanted to help others as much as he could, so he took out the medicine and asked Ye Rang Qin Ke to help him sell it.
Naturally, he wanted to collect iridescent stones, but the price of an iridescent stone was far less than the value of a medicine.
And without using iridescent stones, no matter what you take, you can exchange it for medicine, it is even more out of a righteous heart.
As for why not give it away for nothing...... The so-called Shengmien, Doumien, things that are given away for free are difficult for people to cherish, and they may even bite back, especially at the moment of life and death - there are too many such things.
Lu Ning wants to help others, but he also doesn't want to be wronged.
He didn't want to be scolded for helping others.
The big man took a deep breath and looked at the two beside him.
"So I made a decision. You don't want to go with us to the Wind Delivery Tribe, but you need someone here to help you with something. In order to repay you, I am willing to stay with Mr. and help you do things. β
"I don't have any shortage of manpower here...... "Of course, Lu Ning planned to refuse.
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse," said the big man, "and I don't want any pay, and I can do a lot of thingsβI've worked as a blacksmith, a carpenter, and a decorator." I'm sure I can help you with a lot of things.
"And you don't have to worry about food, I can also find food and hunting or something, and I can take care of myself."
"Even if you're okay, what about your family?" Lu Ning looked behind him.
"They will follow the others to the tribe. When they get there, they will be better with everyone taking care of them. The big man touched his son's head.
The young man's expression was still a little haggard and weak, and he seemed to be a little uncomfortable with dealing with strangers.
But his eyes are resolute and mature.
My father hadn't been with them for a few days, and there was so much he had to do as the only young man.
In just a few months, he has been through so much.
A lot of physical labor, looking for food, going through wind and snow.
Their camp is a large camp with many people, and he naturally sees a lot of humanity between life and death, whether it is good or evil, which is an eye-opener for him.
Later, he fell seriously ill, his relatives died, and he parted with life and death.
All this made the teenager grow up quickly.
"Besides, I also asked Boss Ye," the eldest man said, "Their tribe is not particularly far from here, and with the help of miracle props, we can only go back and forth in a few days." β
Lu Ning wanted to insist on refusing, but he thought about it carefully, but he was a little moved by the big man's words.
The reason he was reluctant to be with the others was that he had a spaceship overhead, and he needed to study a lot of things on his own.
In addition, the movement of receiving supplies from the ship is too eye-catching, and it may cause unnecessary trouble.
But Lu Ning thought about it carefully when he was autistic here, in this world with "miracles", he didn't need to worry too much about anything.
There were too many people in that tribe, and there was a role like a "priest" who knew the position of the survivors well, and perhaps called the eyes of the gods or the warden, and it was really not a good choice for him to move directly.
But with one or two more people on your own turf, it's not a big problem.
And he does need some people to help him with some of the work.
He had so much to do right now.
Alchemy and implantology both need to be studied and studied, and the three fields of medicine, vegetable and flax require completely different conditions to be tended, and they also have to go up and down the mountains every day to carry water, hunt, chop firewood, and cook, and one day is not enough to break into three days.
At that time, he didn't even have time to copy a bunch of drawings sent to him by the manufacturing station, because he really couldn't tell the time.
Therefore, Lu Ning thought about it and felt that it seemed that it was okay to agree to the other party.
But on the other hand, he doesn't know anything about this person, although the other party doesn't seem to be a bad person, but people's hearts are complicated after all.
Lu Ning thought for a while, and finally made a decision: "I really need some manpower here, if you are willing to stay, I will not let you work in vain." Let's go, let's go find Boss Ye. β
Lu Ning poured down the soup in the bowl in one gulp, wiped his mouth, stood up and walked towards Ye Rang Qin Ke with the big man.
