Being Chieftan at a Moe Tribe - Chapter 22

The kitten squirmed a little before lying on Fu Rui’s lap.

Fu Rui pinched her somewhat fleshy cheeks, chuckled, and took out a portion of the willow branch that had been soaked in water.

“Open your mouth.”

Yuan obediently opened her mouth, revealing two neat rows of white teeth.

Compared to humans, her teeth were somewhat sharp, like sawteeth. This made her look cute and fierce.

Fu Rui stuffed the willow leaf into her mouth and let her bite it.

After the willow leaf turned into strands of plant fibers, Fu Rui asked her to open her mouth. Then, he applied some soap on her teeth before carefully cleaning her teeth with the toothbrush made of natural materials.

“It’s so… itchy… meow…” Yuan’s mouth was wide open, and even her words became unclear.

“This ‘toothbrush’ hasn’t been completed yet. When I have the time, I’ll make the handle out and add more brushes so that it won’t itch anymore.”

Fu Rui couldn’t see clearly. Thus, he gently pinched her chin and moved closer.

“Yo, what are you doing so early in the morning?”

A meaningful voice rang out as Li walked out of the house. Upon seeing how close they were to each other, she could not help but tease them. “Didn’t Lord Village Chief say yesterday that he was going to do something serious? Could this be the serious matter you were talking about?”

“I have to do things one by one.”

Fu Rui said in all seriousness, “Go, help me call everyone in the tribe over. In the future, you have to do what I do. You have to brush your teeth every day, and do it once every morning and night.”

Li was stunned. “Are you serious?”

“Of course! Go, go!” Fu Rui urged her.

Li rolled her eyes and went to call for help while swaying her body.

Very quickly, Fu Rui, who was holding on to Yuan, was surrounded by several beast-eared females, who looked at his actions curiously and discussed.

“What is the Village Chief doing?”

“Why is he brushing Yuan’s mouth with a plant?”

“I heard from Li that we have to do this every day in the future. Could it be that we can let the Village Chief personally do it for us~~”

Immediately, the beast-eared females looked at Fu Rui, their eyes filled with anticipation.

They also wanted to be as close to Village Chief as Yuan was!

Fu Rui shook his head and laughed. While brushing Yuan’s teeth, he explained to them about the things they had to pay attention to and the details they had to focus on when brushing their teeth.

Sometimes, he would repeat what no one understood.

Meanwhile, Yuan, who was lying in Fu Rui’s arms, clenched her fists tightly.

A feeling that she had never experienced before spread in her mouth. The itchy and unbearable feeling accumulated bit by bit. In the end, she could no longer hold it in and turned her pretty face away with a red face.

“Bah… meow, it tickles… Yuan can’t take it anymore, meow…”

“I haven’t finished demonstrating…” Fu Rui was a little helpless.

Yuan looked at him pitifully and pouted.

“Fine, fine, forget it.”

Fu Rui did not intend to force her to stay. After all, it was not difficult to brush one’s teeth and one would be able to do it after watching it once. After more than ten minutes of explanation, he believed that everyone had a certain understanding of how to clean one’s mouth and maintain oral hygiene.

What was left was time for them to get used to it.

Then, Fu Rui stood up and clapped his hands. “Girls, don’t look at me anymore. Let’s go out and collect willow leaves. We’ll bring them back to soak them in water. From now on, brush your teeth twice a day. No one is to fall behind, so watch out for each other. Do you understand?”

The beast-eared girls all nodded.

Then, Li reminded everyone. “Everyone, don’t go too far. Gather together and don’t be left alone. The porcupine tribe will definitely find traces of us in the forest yesterday and might come looking for us.”

Li Li smiled. “Don’t worry, Li. We’ll look around nearby.”

“I’ll go with you to find some clay,” said Fu Rui suddenly.

“Clay?” Li raised an eyebrow.

“It’s a material that can be used to make pottery.”

Fu Rui smiled slightly and looked at Li’s rosy face. “Tu Tu picked quite a lot of berries yesterday, so there’s still quite a lot left. In the meantime, I plan to make some pottery. On one hand, it can provide containers for the tribe, such as pots, bowls, ladles, and so on. We can squeeze these berries into juice and store them in these containers. On the other hand, we can add a few cooking methods to our tribe.”

There was a lot of information in his words. As a result, Li was stunned by his words. They were basically things she could not understand.

Just as she was about to ask, Fu Rui waved his hand and walked over to Tu Tu.

“Tu Tu, can you take me with you?”

“Ah… I… What can I do for Lord Village Chief…” Tu Tu blushed slightly.

Fu Rui touched her ear and said with a smile, “There must be clay in the quagmire you fell into yesterday. Let’s go there and look.”

“Just the two of you? Do you want to bring more people along?” Li asked with concern.

“There’s no need. You don’t need to worry about my strength.” Fu Rui laughed lightly, then pulled Tu Tu out.

There were not many changes in the forest today. As usual, the birds and the insects were chirping.

This meant that there were no large creatures nearby, and the area around the territory of the beast-eared tribe was still very safe.

On the way, Fu Rui used the five Civilization Points in the Mall to exchange for pottery technology.

An endless stream of knowledge appeared in his mind. After he figured out the process of making pottery, Tu Tu brought him to the quagmire.

Fu Rui was not in a hurry to collect the clay. He first sorted out the knowledge in his brain bit by bit.

After he sorted out his thoughts, he realized that making pottery was not as simple as he had imagined.

To make pottery, one had to go through a total of 72 processes to make the finished product.

Generally speaking, the process of making pottery could be divided into three parts.

He had to make a prototype, knead the soil to make pottery, and paint the final product!

Making a prototype was simply the first of the 72 processes. It was also the initial stage of shape formation.

It was at this moment that he decided what shape of pottery he wanted to make.

“It’s a little complicated. I have to go back and make some preparations.”

After thinking about it this way, he didn’t seem to be able to do much in a day.

Thus, he had to hurry.

The porcupine tribe was eyeing them covetously, and they could discover the village’s location at any time.

Fu Rui had to quickly settle the infrastructure and needs of the village as soon as possible. Then, he would expand his combat resources.

He quickly started to move and called Tu Tu over to collect the clay.
