Chapter 274: Chapter 275 You Can’t Deceive Me
Huang Yuan wore a serious expression, squinting in the direction that Su Tang and her companions had left.
After a moment of silence, he stood up and went to chop some trees.
The design of the storage shelf described by Su Tang had already been deeply engraved in his mind, but he has wasted quite a bit of wood as he struggled with the exact dimensions.
When it was time for lunch, Mother Hua came to call him, but he didn’t respond, fully engrossed in his studies of the storage shelf!
"Ah..."
Mother Hua shook her head in helplessness and walked away.
Huang Yuan was a Beastman of great inquisitiveness. Speaking bluntly, he could be overly particular about details.
However, these kinds of people have their strengths. They work with undivided attention, not easily disturbed by the outside world.
So by the afternoon, Huang Yuan had finally completed the storage shelf. He felt exhilarated, too proud to walk.
With the storage shelf slung over his shoulder, he rushed over excitedly to Su Tang, and slammed it on the ground!
"Look, my storage shelf. How is it, pretty good, right?"
He tried to hide his pleased tone yet unable to conceal it while pretending it was ’no big deal’.
He was humorously full of himself. 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙥𝙪𝙗.𝒄𝙤𝙢
Su Tang glanced carefully at the storage shelf standing in front of her—
The wood surface was a bit rough and slightly prickly, yet the connections between the pieces of wood were tight and neat due to the mortise and tenon structure, making it look like a single piece.
Although Huang Yuan, this Beastman, might have his own agenda, it’s understandable, and everyone does. Setting that aside, his skill is quite good!
She thought so in her heart but didn’t express it outwardly or Huang Yuan would get even more smug?,
So Su Tang curled her lip, "So this is your storage shelf? It’s alright, doesn’t look all that impressive though!"
After hearing this, Huang Yuan widened his eyes and asked a bit defensively, "Then you tell me, where did I go wrong?"
"Well... See, the surface of the wood still has sharp edges, what if you accidentally hurt your hand? And it took you so long to produce such a simple shelf, and you dare say you are great? Uncle Huang, this storage shelf is the simplest piece of furniture. If you can’t even do this well, how are you going to handle more complicated pieces in the future?"
Huang Yuan was instantly speechless.
But his heart was ignited by Su Tang’s words.
Is the storage shelf the simplest? Are there more difficult pieces of furniture?
Oh, I really want to try making them!
So Huang Yuan glanced at Su Tang, a little embarrassed, "Then, if I can make the storage shelf quickly and well, will you tell me about the creation of other furniture?"
Su Tang thought for a while, and lightly said, "Well, why not? If you can make a good and fast storage shelf, I might tell you about two other simple pieces of furniture. But anything harder than that is out of question. Those are the Tribe’s secret. Unless you swear loyalty to the Beast God and the Tribe, I will not tell you!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Yuan’s spirit rose. He could learn about two other pieces of furniture and immediately nodded his head in excitement!
"Alright! It’s a deal! I’m going to make the storage shelf now! You can’t deceive me!"
Su Tang shook her head helplessly.
Gaiyin suggested from the side, "Why not introduce him to the mechanical structures you mentioned before? I believe he will find it even more interesting."
Su Tang blinked, "That’s the plan. After the storage shelf is finished, I plan to have him work on doors and windows. The principles of mechanical structures and mortise and tenon connections are similar, I believe they can understand quickly!"
