Chapter 308: Chapter 309: Sense of Belonging
Su Tang slapped the blueprint into Huang Yuan’s body.
It took him quite a while to digest it before Huang Yuan opened his eyes in shock.
He exclaimed, "This is incredible. If it really can be built, then our tribe will be very difficult to be invaded by other tribes."
Su Tang smiled wryly and said, "Uncle, talking about that is still too early. We still have a big problem at hand that has not been solved yet."
Huang Yuan nodded, "I think I roughly understand what you want my help on. You’re referring to the roof, aren’t you?"
Su Tang quickly nodded, "Uncle, you’re amazing! You’re able to guess it!"
"I’m the only one who has looked closely at the Mortise and Tenon Diagram Collection you gave. I initially didn’t understand how those structures should be used, but once you showed me the blueprint, I understood!"
Su Tang tentatively asked, "So, does Uncle know how to make the roof now?"
Huang Yuan nodded, "Of course!"
The design blueprint only marked the needed components but did not specify how to construct the roof. This stumped everyone.
The Beastmen had only started paying attention to the Mortise and Tenon Diagram Collection for two days. But after the formation of the City Defense Team, they were drawn in by the Body Forging Technique. Only Huang Yuan was left paying attention to the Mortise and Tenon Diagram Collection.
Because everyone was participating in construction for the first time and lacked experience in many areas, they were slowly feeling their way forward. Therefore, at Su Tang’s request, the first floor of the Camp Cafeteria was built rather slowly.
But now that they have experience and also have materials and labor, building the second floor – which is no more than a day’s work – hence the roof becomes a crucial issue.
Could a house without a roof still be called a house?
Now that Huang Yuan has joined them, the roof can be handed over to him!
However, the roof is very crucial. Su Tang still couldn’t help but to voice a reminder.
"Uncle, you can take your time to research, but the roof must be built very sturdily. Otherwise, the house will easily collapse, which would cause casualties."
Huang Yuan didn’t rush to answer. After a moment of silence, he said, "You’re right, but with the blueprint you gave me, I already know where to start. However, we must wait until the walls are completely dry. Otherwise, they will likely collapse and wouldn’t be sturdy."
Su Tang nodded. She seemed to want to say something else, but she was stopped by Gaiyin.
"Alright, now that this matter has been entrusted to Uncle, you should stop worrying about it. Haven’t you been thinking about the rice these days? I’ll take you to see it!"
Su Tang didn’t quite understand Gaiyin’s intention, but she didn’t contradict him directly either. She nodded and said, "Alright, Uncle, we will leave first then. We will leave this place to you!"
Huang Yuan laughed and replied, "Don’t worry, I’ve got this covered!"
It was only when they were far from the Camp Cafeteria that Gaiyin stopped, turned around, and looked at Su Tang, "Do you know why I didn’t let you speak just now?" 𝔫𝔬𝖛𝖕𝔲𝖇.𝖈𝖔𝖒
Su Tang shook her head.
"Huang Yuan has just started to feel a sense of belonging to the tribe. Assigning him tasks is not only our expression of trust in him but also to let him feel his own value through the tasks, thus binding him to the tribe. Therefore, we cannot interfere too much in his tasks, otherwise, it might cause his displeasure and have the opposite effect. Do you understand what I mean?"
Su Tang nodded in surprise.
After hearing what Big Tiger had to say, she felt that Big Tiger seemed more like a modern person than she did, thinking in a very modern way.
Gaiyin happily ruffled Su Tang’s hair and pinched her chubby cheek, "Let’s go, let’s go see the rice."
