Chapter 336: The First Carriage to Appear in the Ancient Era

Yao was a bit startled by this, but quickly smiled, "Yes, the Goddess is very happy; you accepted Li Xiang because of her?"

In the past, Ying could only be jealous and suppress those men, never letting them get a step closer to Nan Qinghuan, but now he can let Qinghuan go out with men, and he isn't even jealous anymore.

Yao discovers Ying's heart is becoming broader.

Moreover, he finds that he is turning into someone he himself no longer recognizes.

Ying's gaze gradually became sharp; he hasn't accepted Li Xiang, but he now has complete confidence in himself, because as long as he fulfills everything Qinghuan wants, she won't leave him and will live peacefully with him in the tribe; as long as he satisfies her, she won't go away.

If that's the case, why does he still get jealous and not let her go? Moreover, now Rongdi has become friends with him, and they no longer wish to wage war; both sides are working hard for the betterment of their peoples, and he is very satisfied with that.

Very satisfied.

He sees what changes Li Xiang's arrival will bring; as long as it makes Qinghuan happy and benefits the tribe and its people, he has no reason to oppose it.

So he lets them do it.

Of course, he also wants to see what this Carriage really looks like—whether it's more comfortable than sitting on his Xiao Guai? "Yao, when you stand in my position you'll understand why I'm doing this. Qinghuan is right; a man's eyes must look farther, and only by looking farther will our tribe become ever better. What do you think?"

These words entered Yao's heart, and he seemed to have an epiphany.

"I understand. Rest assured, I won't say anything else. You're the Clan Leader; you do as you see fit. I'll take ChaoJi back. In three days we'll get married, and I'll invite you all to attend the wedding and share the celebration."

"You've decided, so it's settled with ChaoJi, right?"

Yao's mouth curved into a pleasing smile, a smile of satisfaction.

It's unbelievable; he's also going to start a family.

In the past he thought he would stay alone his whole life, never imagining he'd have a woman.

Not to mention, having a woman feels wonderful.

"It's decided, just her, one woman."

In the evening, after Nan Qinghuan and the others returned, they heard that Yao had already left with ChaoJi, which left her feeling very disappointed that he left without saying a word.

The items they brought back need to be made with a saw and spores, and Nan Qinghuan knows how to handle all of that.

She went into the Cave and then to the Plane Mall, where she bought these items; afterwards Youchao Xuan began, following Li Xiang's teachings, to make wooden rollers and the other structures of the Carriage.

That night, the few of them worked hard, laboring under the Bonfire.

The Carriage has many parts; they need to make bearings to support forces on both sides, also make a flat board for the Carriage's base and the Carriage's roof.

It can't be finished in one night.

"No good, this wood won't work for wheels; it has to be nanmu wood."

"Nanmu?"

Nan Qinghuan wasn't really familiar with this, Li Xiang nodded, "Exactly, this wood won't do. I don't see this kind of wood here. Duo Luo, do we have it over there?"

Duo Luo naturally didn't know what nanmu was and shook his head, indicating uncertainty. Li Xiang, looking at the scattered Carriage parts, thought for a moment, "Junior sister, we need to go back; I'll finish the wheel and deliver it to you."

The tribe members all look forward to seeing what this Carriage will look like, but the wood isn't suitable; still, the things they're making here are truly eye‑opening.

Everyone is very curious.

It's astonishing that wood can be made into such long planks.

Li Xiang wanted to go back, and the pitch‑black Nan Qinghuan was very worried, "Senior brother, it's not safe this late at night; why not leave tomorrow?"

Duo Luo smiled, "Don't worry; with me there's no problem. Our tribe is accustomed to traveling at night, it's fine."

Li Xiang also knew that staying here was unsuitable; the tribe had no extra room for him. "Qinghuan, don't worry; with Duo Luo it's fine. I'll head back now; once my wheel is ready I'll deliver it myself, and also have someone bring some items to trade with you."

The tribe has candles, salt, mosquito‑repelling Flower Dew Water, and other items; these are needed by the Rongdi Tribe, so they need to be exchanged.

Living a primitive life using the most primitive methods.

Nan Qinghuan, though worried, could only let them leave; after they departed she sighed deeply, hoping the senior brother would reach the tribe safely.

Ying, seeing her worry, reached out and grasped her waist.

"Don't worry; with Duo Luo there's no problem. Duo Luo, the High Priest, roams the forest year after year; she'll look after your senior brother."

Upon hearing this, Nan Qinghuan couldn't help but look at Ying with furrowed brows, "Do you know Duo Luo?"

Ying nodded, not wanting to hide it, "Yes, I know her. When I was young I often went to the Rongdi hills to poach, and I met her once. Once she was bitten by a beast and I rescued her."

Nan Qinghuan couldn't believe that Ying and Duo Luo shared such a past.

How much hardship did this man endure in his youth? She couldn't help but wrap her arms around him, resting her head against his chest in an intimate manner, "From now on I won't let you suffer."

Those words darkened Ying's expression; he reached out to gently stroke her cheek. Under the moonlight Nan Qinghuan's face flushed scarlet, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"With your words, I'd give my life to you."

Yes, with her words he'd give his life to her, and now his heart blossoms with joy, because his choice was right; he makes Qinghuan happy, and Qinghuan will make him happy.

Nan Qinghuan knew he had changed a lot for her, gently took her hand and walked to sit beside the Carriage. The tribe members, seeing the Carriage unfinished, went to rest, leaving only the couple still sitting there chatting.

She counted the planks one by one, "Senior brother and I have agreed: once our tribe has a Carriage and trade, Ying, can we trade goods with other tribes? What do you think—should we carve out a street nearby to be our own road, to create another Shanhai Yishi?"
