I Became The Chief of A Primitive Village - Chapter 147: Are You Serious?

In the early morning, golden rays of sunlight illuminated the entire Flame Dragon Tribe. Su Bai had already finished brushing his teeth and was eating breakfast. Today’s breakfast was Wolf Tail Grass Noodles.

Yu Ying had eaten some dried meat early in the morning for breakfast, then went to take care of the lettuce and chilli peppers.

[While Xiao Yu is not here, let’s quickly open an Assistance Package.] Su Bai thought to himself. [System, check in and open the Assistance Package.]

[Ding! Congratulations Host, check in successful.]

[Ding! Congratulations Host had received Low Grade Assistance: one bag of cat food.]

Su Bai doubted his ears, his mouth twitching several times before slowly questioning his sanity. [Cat… cat food!?]

The bag of cat food in front of him was even a well-known brand from Earth, but… even if it was a well-known brand, it was still just cat food…

[System, are you seriously giving me a bag of cat food? Seriously!]” Su Bai silently called out in his heart.

[Yes, Host. The Daily Check In Assistance Packages are all random. You can get anything from them.] the System’s cold voice sounded.

Su Bai sighed, looking at the bag of cat food, and said. [Alright, I understand… As for this bag, it is quite large. Rather than calling it a bag, it was more accurate to call it a sack, like those rice sacks from Earth.]

[Still, why give me cat food at this time? I don’t even have a cat, and besides… besides, there aren’t any cats here, right?] Su Bai patted the sack of cat food and continued to ponder, [Yeah. That can’t be cats. If there are, they wouldn’t survive for long. They’d definitely be eaten right away.]

He helplessly put away the sack of cat food. For now, it was best to keep such items opened by the System to one side.

[Let’s see if I can feed some animals later…] Su Bai suddenly had thoughts of keeping a pet. He imagined having a little cat or dog in the Teepee, and the joy it would bring. How those healing sessions of cuddles would energise him. Also, he bet the fox eared girl would like it as well.

*Ahem…* Su Bai coughed lightly and questioned himself, [Wait. Just what am I thinking?]

He took out a sheet of Wolf Tail Grass Paper and a notebook made of Wolf Tail Grass Paper, along with a pencil and an eraser.

This Wolf Tail Grass Notebook was made with the help of the fox eared girl. She took dozens of sheets of Wolf Tail Grass Paper, stacked them together, and fixed them with needle and thread.

Now, the children in the classroom all used Wolf Tail Grass Notebooks, and each person has been given a quill pen. Of course, Su Bai would not give these things to the children for no reason. He directly had the children take an exam.

This exam was to write from memory the content they had been taught before. If they passed, they would get a small notebook and a quill pen as a reward. If they did not pass, they would not get anything and would have to continue using charcoal and Beast Hide.

This move would stimulate the competitive spirit of the children, making his future classes easier to conduct. This was also just one of his strategies.

[I need to have people build a simple farm first…] Su Bai thought as he held onto the pencil and drew a circular structure on the paper, with many sticks inserted around it. He soon drew different areas inside, some with nothing covering them representing areas for eating, and some with covers drawn, which were dens for the animals to sleep in.

If he had not learned how to draw back on Earth, he would not have been able to make these sketches understandable. In fact, his drawings would just be line drafts, all jumbled up.

“Shaman, have you finished your breakfast?” Yu Ying suddenly lifted the Teepee door flap and walked in.

“En, I’m done eating. How are the lettuce and chilli peppers?” Su Bai curiously asked.

Yu Ying spread her hands wide and exclaimed, “They’re growing so fast! The chilli peppers are this big now!”

“Looks like we can eat them in about ten days.” Su Bai said. When he went to look a couple of days ago, he found the chilli pepper leaves were getting greener. They were no longer the tender green of when they first sprouted, now dark green. According to growth conditions on Earth, they should flower soon.

Not just the chilli peppers, the sweet potatoes were growing well too. Looking over, there was a row of small mounds covered in sweet potato leaves.

“Shaman, but I haven’t seen any chilli peppers yet. Where do the chilli peppers grow?” Yu Ying asked curiously.

“We need to wait for it to flower first. After flowering, there will be chilli peppers.” Su Bai smiled and continued, “Give this to the Chieftain. Have him build one according to my drawing. If he does not understand anything, tell him to come ask me.”

“I understand” Yu Ying took the sheet of Wolf Tail Grass Paper, looked at the drawings on it, and asked herself, [What is this?]

Still, since the Shaman had given her a task, she dared not ponder over it for too long. The fox eared girl lifted the Teepee door flap and walked out. She headed straight for the training ground. Since it was early in the morning, the Chieftain had gone to oversee the training of those that were going to fight for the Tribe.

Ten minutes later, Yu Ying arrived at the training ground. She held out the Wolf Tail Grass Paper with both hands and said, “Chieftain, this is what the Shaman asked me to give you.”

At this moment, in the training ground, the Warrior Trainees were all squatting up and down and running while holding heavy stones. Those who were not yet Warrior Trainees were doing the same, all doing weightlifting. Though, the weights they lifted were much lighter than those the Warrior Trainees were using.

At the same time, on the other side, there were twenty-five archers who were also training. This time, their hit rate on the wooden stakes had greatly improved. Almost everyone could hit the target.

It was just a matter of before they could consistently hit the centre point. Compared to the initial stage where they missed every shot, they had improved by leaps and bounds.

“The Shaman gave this to me?” The Chieftain curiously took the paper and continued, “I understand. You can go back and take care of the Shaman.”

“Okay.” Yu Ying nodded and quickly walked away.

Yan Hua stopped her training and, seeing the fox eared girl’s retreating figure, came to the Chieftain’s side.

Her red eyes glanced at the paper and asked, “Father, is this a new order from the Shaman?”
