Night quietly descended, and the Fla Dragon Tribe was once again plunged into darkness, with pinpoints of firelight imdiately being lit up.
Due to the impending snow season, the sky was growing dark particularly early, with nightfall occurring at approximately four or five in the afternoon.
Su Bai finished his dinner and summoned Long, intending to assign him so tasks.
He held a wooden cup and asked, "By the way, I heard you’re quite skilled at building rafts, is that right?"
Long was taken aback, and after hearing these words, he imdiately stood up straight and nodded in response, "Yes, Shaman. I used to build wooden rafts for the Sea Fish Tribe."
After arriving at the Fla Dragon Tribe, he had been completely impressed by everything here and had thoroughly fallen in love with this place. When he first arrived in the morning, he had been wandering around in amazent, just like a curious child. He asked why this was so, why that was so, showing interest in everything.
He also continuously expressed his admiration for the place, feeling that it was truly paradise on Earth, incomparably better than the Sea Fish Tribe where they had previously lived.
It was precisely because of this that he finally understood why Co Co wanted to beco a mber of the Fla Dragon Tribe. He himself had already been moved and had completely fallen in love with this place.
Not only because of the environnt here, but also because of the food—after taking just one bite, he had fallen for it once again.
"Do you like it here?" Su Bai suddenly asked, having finished his water and set down his wooden cup.
"Of course I like it, this place is absolutely wonderful, I love it." Long nodded without hesitation.
"That’s good, from now on consider this as your Tribe." Su Bai calmly stated.
"Thank you, Shaman, I will work hard, and definitely won’t eat the Tribe’s food for nothing/" Long imdiately replied. After all, he was also a person from the Primitive Era and understood the principle that one must work to get food, so naturally, he would work diligently.
"Very well, there is sothing I need you to do," Su Bai said seriously.
"Please instruct , Shaman. As long as I can do it, I will certainly do it carefully," Long stood exceptionally straight and continued to ask, "Does the Shaman want to build a raft?"
"No. It’ll be sothing better than a raft." Su Bai smiled.
"Better than a raft? Shaman, what is it?" Long was curious.
Although he was thirty years old, he was still very passionate, especially after having been a slave in the Sea Insect Tribe for such a long ti.
Now that he had been rescued and had co to such a wonderful Tribe, he was naturally excited to have proper work to do. Moreover, upon hearing that it was sothing better than building a raft, he beca even more interested.
"You will build a ship!" Su Bai enunciated each word, his expression especially serious.
He had originally intended to give his design drawings to Gu Mu, but before he had the chance to teach him, he t Long.
Having heard that Long was skilled at building rafts, although rafts and ships were not exactly the sa, they were both things that float on water. So, he thought about showing him the drawings he had spent a long ti on, thinking perhaps Long might be able to do sothing about it.
This would save Gu Mu a considerable amount of work, as Gu Mu now had to craft many things for the Tribe. From small items like wooden bowls, chopsticks, and cups, to large items like tables, chairs, and furniture. In short, there were many things for him to make.
"Building a ship? Shaman, what is a ship?" Long heard this new term for the first ti.
"Like a raft, it’s sothing that floats on water, but this thing can carry more people and is much larger in size. It is also more robust and can be used multiple tis." Su Bai explained.
He asked Yu Ying to bring the drawings he had been working on for a long ti, and then handed them to Long.
"There’s actually such a thing?" Long accepted the drawings with a puzzled look and began to examine them.
"These are my drawings, about the overall structure of the ship, as well as its construction and principles, and so on." Su Bai briefly explained.
The drawings depicted a large ship, specifically a thirty-tre vessel, complete with masts, sails, cabins, decks, and so on.
The overall style was similar to the ancient ships of China. It was large, with a ton of space to accommodate many people.
When Long saw the drawings, his eyes widened, and his face showed boundless shock.
He instinctively covered his mouth with one hand; the shock from this drawing was just that imnse.
The design on it made him stare without blinking, and he was simply unwilling to take his eyes off it. It was as if the drawing on the paper was like a treasure, deeply attracting him and making him completely fascinated by it.
"Well? Can you build it?" Su Bai saw that the other party was speechless.
Long’s hands were visibly shaking, trembling as he held the drawings, and said in astonishnt, "Shaman, this thing is called a ship?"
"Yes! So, can you find a way to build it?" Su Bai’s thick black eyebrows raised slightly.
"I-I’ll try, this thing is too amazing! if it can be built, it would be a miracle!" Long said, shocked.
"Don’t say ‘if’, this ship must be built for . It’s critical for the Tribe, and also determines whether we can take back your Tribe." Su Bai said seriously.
"Yes, I will definitely try my best, although it looks very complex, I will study it carefully." Long imdiately replied.
His blood was already boiling, and he could not wait to go back and study it. Upon hearing that this thing could help reclaim his Tribe, he beca even more excited.
"Take your ti to study it, and if you need anything, just ask. I will definitely ensure that our people satisfy your needs, as long as you can build it." Su Bai solemnly said.
He was satisfied with Long’s expression, knowing that the other party was willing to try, which was good. As long as he had the heart to do it, and spent so ti researching, building the ship would not be a major problem.
"Yes, Shaman, I need a larger space, otherwise I… I won’t be able to conduct experints!" Long smiled awkwardly.
He knew that suddenly making such a request was not good, but he had no choice, especially after hearing that whatever he needed would be fulfilled. So, he just asked.
"That’s not a problem, I will have soone arrange a place for you, and the space will definitely be large," Su Bai nodded.
He planned to build a shipyard by the river and then have him start building the ship there.
"Thank you, Shaman, I will definitely make a ship." Long was already extrely excited.
"I will have soone bring you three als a day, and there will definitely be enough food for you." Su Bai calmly said.
As long as he could build the ship, he was willing to provide him with as much food as needed.
"Shaman, just giving a bit of at to eat is fine, it doesn’t matter.” Long smiled.
He really could not believe his current situation, and his heart imdiately leaped in joy.
