I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village Chapter 249: You Are Indeed Literate

Sha Lan nodded without hesitation and confidently said, “Yes, I’ve rembered everything.”

Su Bai was a bit surprised, not expecting the cat eared girl’s mory to be so good. He naturally had to ask, “Can you repeat it back for ?”

“170 people needed to burn grass, 100 people to mix grass and wood ash, 500 people to build houses…” Sha Lan recited everything word for word.

*Clap clap clap…* Su Bai clapped repeatedly and praised, “Excellent, you rembered it perfectly!”

“Then, I’ll go tell everyone in the Tribe.” Sha Lan organised the Wolf Tail Grass Paper to return it.

“Keep it, post it up for everyone to see,” Su Bai said.

“Shaman, nobody can read. Posting it won’t help since no one will be able to understand it,” Sha Lan said, puzzled by the Shaman’s decision.

Su Bai smiled and explained, “I know they can’t read, but you can!”

“?” Sha Lan beca even more confused, shaking her head repeatedly, “No, no, no, I can’t read it.”

“But didn’t you just tell what it says?” Su Bai asked in return.

“That’s because Shaman told . I was just repeating what you said, I can’t actually read these characters.” Sha Lan’s blue eyes were full of questions.

Su Bai smiled slightly, took a sip of water, and explained, “When I say you can read, then you can read. At least let them think you can read.”

Sha Lan began to understand a little and asked, “Why does Shaman want them to think I can read?”

“Just say you can read. It is because you can read that’s why you can eat lots of at every day and receive linen. Of course, you’ll actually receive these things later.” Su Bai calmly stated.

“I get lots of at and linen because I can read?” Sha Lan played with her blue hair and continued asking, “But why do you want the Tribesn to think this?”

“To motivate them. Only through this would they be serious about trying to learn to read.” Su Bai explained.

This idea had just occurred to him, seeing the cat eared girl’s amazing mory, he realised he could use her as a model. Being able to read leads to becoming a Shaman Priestess, being able to read ans having lots of at to eat every day, being able to read ans wearing linen clothes.

These were things that everyone in the Tribe eagerly pursued. Won hoped to beco Shaman Priestesses and wear linen, while n hoped to eat lots of at.

The cat eared girl’s mory was exceptionally good, and he could use her mory to make others believe she could really read.

Sha Lan suddenly understood and exclaid in surprise, “Shaman wants to announce your recruitnt conditions and make everyone think that being able to read is beneficial for them, right?”

“Clever. That’s exactly what I want.” Su Bai smiled. [She is indeed smart.]

“I understand, I’ll do as you say.” Sha Lan nodded and turned to leave.

“Wait, change into linen clothes first. It will be more convincing,” Su Bai called her back.

Sha Lan turned back looking troubled and stamred, “Shaman, I… I don’t… don’t have linen clothes, only Animal Hide clothes.”

The cat eared girl was wearing Animal Hide, but because of her exceptional figure, the hide covered more sensitive areas, and was wrapped more securely.

“I want them to think being able to read gets you these things. Of course, for now, you don’t really need your own linen clothes, I’ll give you a set first.” Su Bai said generously. ṙ

“But Shaman, I really can’t read so I shouldn’t take your linen.” Sha Lan honestly said.

The cat eared girl felt like she did not deserve to wear linen since she still could not read, especially since linen was such a precious thing.

“It’s fine, you’ll be able to read later. Put this on first.” Su Bai said.

“Yes, Sha Lan, put it on. Linen clothes are really comfortable, and you need to go and convince them while you recruit. They won’t believe you unless they see you wearing linen.” Yu Ying persuaded from the side.

Sha Lan’s hands clutched her Animal Hide skirt. After so hesitation, she nodded, “Alright, I’ll put it on, but I’ll change back when I return.”

“Just go and change first,” Su Bai doubted she would want to take it off once she put it on, “Yu Ying, give her one of yours, and we’ll make another later.”

Currently in the Tribe, only he, the fox eared girl, and Yan Hua had linen clothes to wear, no one else did.

The cow horned girl’s linen clothes would not fit the cat eared girl, given the difference in chest size.

However, Yu Ying’s would be different. She was similar to the cat eared girl, and their builds were similar. Moreover, the linen clothes were made with so extra room to them. They were not form-fitting. Thus, she should be able to fit in Yu Ying’s clothes.

“No, no, no, now I really can’t take them,” Sha Lan quickly shook her head. She really did not want to take soone else’s clothes.

“It’s fine, I have two sets, and I can make more later.” Yu Ying said and went to get the linen clothes.

The fox eared girl brought out a set of linen clothes that looked quite loose and held them up against the cat eared girl to compare.

“Good, looks like they’ll fit perfectly.” Yu Ying smiled.

Sha Lan awkwardly accepted the clothes, feeling a bit guilty, and said, “I’ll return them when I co back.”

“It’s fine, just go.” Yu Ying urged.

“Rember what I told you, State that those who can read will receive the sa treatnt,” Su Bai added.

Sha Lan nodded firmly and said, holding the linen clothes, “I’ll definitely complete this task well.”

The cat eared girl left the wooden house holding the linen clothes, a slight smile appearing on her face.

The linen clothes felt very comfortable to hold, and she could clearly feel its softness.

She returned to her wooden house, changed into the linen clothes, then took the Wolf Tail Grass Paper and left.

She went to the centre of the Tribe, set up a wooden board, and nailed the three pieces of Wolf Tail Grass Paper to it.

The cat eared girl had already sent people to spread the word throughout the Tribe that the Shaman had sothing to announce.

Soon, people from the Tribe gradually gathered, all crowding in front of the wooden board, and talking.

“What does it say up there?”

“I don’t know either, none of us can read.”

“Could it be about sothing new?”

“Look, Sha Lan is standing there, why is she wearing linen clothes?”

“Yeah, why is she wearing linen clothes? How envious, they look so comfortable.”

The crowd was buzzing with discussion about what was written on the board, but since they could not read, they were especially curious.

“The Shaman is recruiting manpower, please be quiet.” Sha Lan raised her voice.

This was her first ti speaking in front of so many people, so she was inevitably a bit nervous.
