RPAGF Chapter 66 Offering
Chapter 66 Offering
Upon hearing Lin Baiyan's words, the beastmen finally showed expressions of surprise.
what?
The tribe even provided supplies, and the orcs could hardly believe their ears—such a good thing was happening!
They thought the tribe would only provide them with food, since the tribe's responsibility was to ensure that no orc starved to death, but they would have to rely on themselves for their own livelihood. The priest had even considered this!
At this moment, everyone looked at Lang Cang and Lin Baiyan with gratitude in their eyes.
Seeing the change in everyone's expressions, Lin Baiyan knew it was time for her to step into her role as a priest.
He immediately flashed his professional, gentle smile, which was both kind and divine, and said, "I know the doubts in everyone's hearts."
"Regardless of how you lived in the tribe before, the Azure Flame Tribe is a generous tribe, and every beastman in the tribe is an indispensable part."
Sure enough, the orcs' eyes lit up immediately, and some of the orcs who had previously been ignored were even more moved.
A little bit of motivation is necessary. The beastmen's thinking is relatively simple. The young man is becoming more and more skilled at this job, just like the charlatan in his previous life.
"This is a decision that the chieftain and I discussed together, hoping that everyone can have a warm winter."
At this opportune moment, Tu Lin stepped forward and said sincerely, "Thank you for the tribe's generosity!"
The beastmen quickly bowed their heads and said together with Rabbit Forest, "Thank you for the tribe's generosity!"
The tribe has accumulated quite a few animal hides by now. A whole piece of bull hide is peeled off, and with the game that comes from time to time, the tribe now has a total of one hundred and thirty animal hides of various sizes.
Now we have another batch of wolf pelts, but we've only skinned them and haven't had time to wash and process them yet.
Lin Baiyan distributed large bull hides and wolf pelts to everyone.
Wolf fur is thick and warmer than bull fur, but bull hides are larger and can be used as both blankets and mattresses.
If it were difficult to distribute them, Lin Baiyan had everyone draw lots to distribute them randomly. As for whether anyone wanted to exchange them later, that was beyond his control.
At this moment, Tu Lin suddenly stood up and said, "I believe everyone has seen the benefits of charcoal, and it was the priest who taught us how to make charcoal."
"No one can acquire valuable knowledge for no reason. Every tribe rewards orcs who make contributions, so this time the priest can receive one more wolf pelt than everyone else. Does anyone disagree?"
Lin Baiyan didn't mention these things, but Tu Lin couldn't forget them.
The beastmen unanimously shook their heads. Rabbit Forest was right; they couldn't gain knowledge without giving anything in return.
Although the young man did not ask for any benefits from others, it was a very happy thing for him to be remembered for his contributions.
Tu Lin smiled gently at Lin Baiyan, who seemed a little embarrassed. Even as a priest, Baiyan was still a cub, and he should take better care of him.
Tu Lin discovered that Lin Baiyan didn't seem to have much of an obsession with these things. He would do good deeds and be happy if others remembered them, but it didn't matter if others didn't.
But that's not right. The orcs already have a hard time surviving, so they should be grateful so they can live a better life.
After distributing the animal hides, Lin Baiyan looked at the beastmen who were lovingly touching the hides in their hands and said, "This time, the tribe has given everyone enough charcoal to last for five days, but if you need to use it again in the future, you will have to make your own."
"The charcoal is the same as the supplies you obtain during the snow season; you have to hand over one-fifth to the tribe. Is there a problem?"
The young orcs have just made a decision to hand over a portion of their resources to support orphaned cubs and elderly orcs in the tribe.
Lin Baiyan did not allow the young beastmen to treat the old beastmen as a burden.
This isn't actually a lot, since most of the food during the snowy season is provided by the tribe. Most orcs stay in their caves and rarely go out to hunt or gather. It's just that they need a lot of charcoal.
The young man knew that this harmed the interests of some orcs. "I know that everyone works hard every day hunting and gathering, but the cubs are the hope of the tribe. The older orcs are not doing nothing either."
"We are a tribe, a whole, and everyone has their own value."
"Everyone has their own things to do, even the little chicks are feeding the colorful phoenix chickens and gathering firewood."
As he said before, the experience of the old orcs is far beyond what the young orcs can match.
Huqiu was the first to agree, "It's just handing over some supplies. We have to go hunting and stuff every day. It's no big deal!"
Xiong Fei was the second. Looking at the fierce-looking big guy, he couldn't say anything nice, but he said very honestly, "I'm willing, I don't care about that one bite to eat."
Once there's a first, there's a second. Seeing the hunting team's fighting strength, none of the male orcs had any objections. They spoke up in twos and threes, which meant they agreed to the rule.
The young man breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that everyone would be resistant, and he had spent the whole night thinking about how to persuade them. He didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
Lang Cang didn't think that much about it. As long as Lin Baiyan wanted to do something, he would find a way to help him achieve it. Even if the beastmen disagreed, he had a way to make them agree.
Lin Baiyan continued, "Charcoal is easy to burn. I will have Shuyue lead everyone to burn some. The charcoal he burns is both intact and durable."
Lin Baiyan looked at Shuyue and asked encouragingly, "Well? Shuyue, are you willing to share your secrets with everyone?"
All eyes of the beastmen immediately turned to Rat Moon. Rat Moon blushed slightly under their gaze, but he still stammered, "No, no problem."
The young man then looked at Shuyue with a smile, "Then I'll leave it to you."
Finally, Lin Baiyan clapped his hands, "Alright everyone, let's go see your new homes!"
Woohoo~
The orcs rushed out to claim their caves, each marked with a number corresponding to a stone in their hand; they simply had to find their way.
Lin Baiyan wasn't in a hurry. Seeing that everyone had left, he leisurely walked at the very back. Anyway, the cave was there, and it wasn't going to run away.
In contrast, Lang Cang seemed somewhat impatient in his actions. The young man tilted his head in confusion and looked at the person next to him, "Are you in such a hurry to see the cave?"
Cough cough cough, Lang Cang realized he was being a bit impatient when the young man stared at him. He mumbled a reply, "No, I'm just curious about what the inside of the cave looks like."
Oh, that seems so. Since the cave was built, Lang Cang hasn't seen what it looks like inside.
Lin Baiyan thought about it carefully and felt that Lang Cang's anxiety was understandable. He grabbed Lang Cang and ran forward, "Let's go, let's squeeze in too!"
After being teased like that, Lin Baiyan inexplicably felt a sense of anticipation, and the young man excitedly pulled Lang Cang toward the stone steps.
