Yang Xiao had Ah Bao bring over forty tribesn with him on Qin Lu's spaceship to the valley of the tribal King.
"Everyone has worked hard recently. Take a three-day break, and then we'll return here to establish a base and start the big work."
Elder Jiu followed the Prospecting Team back to David's base. Arranged by David, Zhao Benling, Chi Lin, Gu Beifeng, Du Tianxing, and a dozen other brothers all gathered at the base, ready to work at Yang Xiao's new mine site.
Qin Lu piloted the spaceship, bringing Yang Xiao and others to the tribal King's valley. They landed in the valley square, causing a sensation among the tribal people, with both adults and children running out to see the excitent.
In the crowd, Ah Rui was also there. When she saw Yang Xiao descending from the spaceship, she ran over and threw herself into his arms.
On the side, Qin Lu watched, conflicted for a long ti,
"Damn, Yang Xiao gets a top-notch slave girl like Ming Yue, even marrying a tribal woman and she's top-notch too. What kind of luck does this guy have? Oh right, even his mining luck isn't ordinary!"
Qin Lu decided to stick with Yang Xiao from now on. If Yang Xiao has good luck, he could always benefit from it, right?
His father was originally hesitant about investing in mining, as Elder Qin wanted to continue expanding the exploration around the existing mine site to find new veins.
Qin Lu wasn't initially very interested in mining. He didn't manage much at his father's base and was usually just idly wandering around. But after eting Yang Xiao, he took the partnership in mining very seriously.
This is the influence of interpersonal interactions, affecting a person's attitude towards life and work.
Qin Lu was willing to play chess, chat, and chase girls with Yang Xiao, and was also willing to start a business together—a completely different experience from being with his father.
Elder Qin thought, it's like investing for his son. If it succeeds, great; if not, it's just buying his son a lesson, although spending ten billion Crystal Coins for a lesson is a bit costly.
"Ah Rui, let introduce you, this is my good friend, Qin Lu."
Ah Rui nodded politely.
She originally had no fondness for the people of Witch Star, but now because of Yang Xiao, she no longer showed any dislike.
Qin Lu then smiled:
"Miss Ah Rui, do you have any unmarried sisters?"
Yang Xiao laughed, pointing to the middle-aged won in the crowd who were scantily clad, and said:
"There are plenty of middle-aged won, feel free to choose."
Qin Lu rolled his eyes,
"Brother Yang, that's not fair! You're just enjoying yourself and forgetting your brothers."
Ah Rui giggled.
The tribal King and Qing Mu also ca over.
Yang Xiao went forward to pay his respects to the tribal King.
Because he married Ah Rui, Yang Xiao's status suddenly dropped by three ranks, turning from an equal partner into a junior.
Yang Xiao bowed to the tribal King, calling him "Grandpa".
The tribal King chuckled and said:
"Boy, how's the mining going?"
"No problem, we've found the vein, and we'll soon begin officially establishing the base."
"Good!"
Yang Xiao then introduced Qin Lu to the tribal King.
This was Qin Lu's first ti eting such a prominent figure in the tribal society, and he felt very moved, imdiately bowing deeply in respect.
Ah Bao and the forty-sothing tribesn ca down from the spaceship and went to temporary houses to reunite warmly with their wives, children, and families.
Qin Lu was eager to report the good news to his father, stayed briefly in the valley, had a al, and then imdiately took off in the spaceship.
...
They say brief separation enhances the affection of newlyweds, Ah Rui, not having seen Yang Xiao for days, was affectionate and inseparable.
"Ah Rui, how about I arrange a new job for you?"
"Hmm?"
"I'll open a general store in the tribe for you to sell goods."
"Trading items? Everything in our tribe is equally distributed; we don't need to trade."
"Not trading your tribe's items, but selling things I've brought to you."
"Oh? What things?"
"A lot. n's clothing, beautiful skirts for won, toys for children, snacks, various sharp weapons, defensive armors, and so on."
"But, how to sell? What will they exchange them with? Beast skins?"
"I don't want beast skins."
"Then what do you want?"
"Crystal coins."
"Crystal coins? We don't have crystal coins."
"We will have them soon."
Ah Rui was utterly clueless.
Yang Xiao opened five or six large boxes that Qin Lu had brought down, first taking out a beautiful floral dress and helping Ah Rui put it on.
"For ?"
Holding the gorgeous dress, Ah Rui was a bit excited. She had seen people from Witch Star wearing these clothes occasionally and had always envied and wanted them. However, with no place to buy them, she could only sew similar garnts out of beast skins herself.
But beast skin was thick and heavy, and no matter how skillful her hands were, she could not replicate this kind of feeling.
Wearing the floral dress, Ah Rui's entire deanor and appearance were imdiately transford, radiant and striking.
Yang Xiao then handed her a mirror.
Looking at her beautiful reflection in the mirror, Ah Rui hardly believed it was her.
"Yang Xiao, is that really ?"
"Silly girl, who else could it be?"
Yang Xiao then brought out several pieces of jewelry—a necklace with 3 Strength, a headpiece with 3 Agility, and a ring with 1 Defense—and put them on Ah Rui.
After wearing them, Ah Rui was first shocked and then jumped up, hugging Yang Xiao's neck and giving him several fierce kisses.
"Is this magic jewelry? I'm not wrong, am I?"
Ah Rui had long been aware of the magic accessories from the Genetic Store of Witch Star people, but as barbarians, they couldn't enter Karachi City or visit the Genetic Stores at various bases to purchase these items. They could only occasionally find so magic jewelry and weapons from the bodies of deceased Witch Star people.
Such items were incredibly scarce.
Over the years, they had stayed far away from Witch Star people, living secluded in the Primitive Forest, seldom encountering Witch Star individuals, let alone obtaining their possessions.
Ah Rui did have a couple of pieces of magic jewelry by her side—a necklace and an arm bracelet, gifts from her grandfather, which she usually cherished too much to wear, keeping them in a box and only taking them out during tribe etings.
Whenever she wore the necklace and arm bracelet, it always attracted envious glances from her peers.
Yang Xiao then brought out a pair of white sports shoes for Ah Rui to wear.
An image of a dynamic, beautiful, noble girl with a hint of wildness erged.
Yang Xiao looked at Ah Rui in front of him, sowhat dazed.
"Not only do gods need golden decorations, people need clothing too!"
It's true, beauty is 30% appearance and 70% dressing up. After dressing up, the beautiful Ah Rui underwent a major transformation, no longer the wild child-like girl of the past.
Ah Rui looked at herself in the mirror, turned her head to Yang Xiao,
"Yang Xiao, do I look pretty?"
"Pretty."
"Do you like it?"
"Like it."
