Gu Chaoyan gazed at Giles with clear eyes, as if she hadn’t heard his earlier words. Her expression mirrored how she looked at Gary and the others. She spoke calmly, “They’ve all joined in. Why are you still here? Hurry and lend a hand with the bamboo house construction. The recent rains have been quite relentless. If we finish early, we won’t suffer as much. After pleting the bamboo house, I’ll teach you how to use bows and arrows. Our tribe will gradually bee stronger.”
Giles observed the Tribe Chief with astonishment.
He sensed that the Tribe Chief had undergone a transformation.
She seemed even more gentle and magnanimous than before.
In the past, the Tribe Chief had been somewhat headstrong. If any tribe members expressed dissatisfaction, she would keep track of scores and settle scores with them.
He had anticipated the Tribe Chief might react similarly to his earlier ments.
However, the Tribe Chief didn’t.
A warm feeling welled up in Giles’ heart.
He nodded and quickly moved to join the others, saying, “Yes, Tribe Chief.”
Gu Chaoyan smiled.
Initially, she had been slightly concerned. Giles was somewhat rebellious, and she feared that his stubbornness might disrupt her plans. But now, he acted like a child, easily persuaded to contribute to the work.
These clansmen.
Even though many had been dissatisfied with her, Gu Chaoyan could see that these individuals were practical, thinking about the clan’s welfare.
If this spirit persisted…
Soon, the clan would enjoy a more fortable existence.
With more clan members joining in, the construction of the bamboo house progressed much more quickly. Guided by Gu Chaoyan, the first bamboo house was erected. It wasn’t
spacious, but these clansmen were accustomed to sharing a single large sleeping area, so this bamboo house could fortably acmodate four people.
The clansmen gazed at the bamboo house in astonishment.
They realized that their Tribe Chief was genuinely clever.
The bamboo structure provided shelter from wind and rain on all sides, and a thick layer of weeds covered the top. It was more practical and spacious than animal skin tents.
If everyone could live in these bamboo houses, they would no longer endure exposure to the elements.
“Tribe Chief!” The clansmen shouted with excitement. “The Tribe Chief is truly wise!”
Gu Chaoyan’s cheeks reddened. She found it hard to face such heartfelt praise.
She simply said, “Let’s keep building. Aim to construct more bamboo houses in the next few days.”
With the Tribe Chief’s directive, the clansmen’s enthusiasm reached new heights.
They got back to work.
In this uncivilized world, everyone remained highly industrious.
Gary stood beside Gu Chaoyan, surveyed the bamboo house, and sighed, “It feels like a dream. I never expected our clan would see such a day.”
“And it seems they’ve embraced you,” Gary added. He was genuinely pleased for the Tribe Chief.
The clansmen hadn’t embraced the Tribe Chief’s leadership for a long time.
The Tribe Chief distancing herself from her clansmen hadn’t been beneficial.
“I hope we can remain like this forever,” Gu Chaoyan said, gazing into the distance.
“As long as…” Gary began, but he hesitated, unable to find the right words. His face reddened slightly, as though articulating his thoughts would reveal too much. “I will.”
Gu Chaoyan regarded Gary with curiosity.
He had wanted to say…
