Chapter 235: Changes in the Workshop

The things they brought aren't the usual items from Heiyan Shanmai; they must have hidden them well, and the patrolling beastmen wouldn't deliberately check who is carrying anything.

Ji Xuan heard the female's words and thought for a while, but he didn't want Yun Li to be too troubled by this, so he said a comforting line to her.

Hearing that, Yun Li also gave a slight nod, not lingering on the matter.

Anyway, she'll be able to meet Moluo tomorrow; if she still remembers this, she can ask him about it then.

On the other side, Luosai, who had successfully delivered the items to Yun Li's house and was sitting in the courtyard waiting, immediately went to greet Moluo as soon as he saw him return.

"Chief, I've delivered everything to Yun Li Adult's home; her family has a Beast Husband of Leng Xiao who told me to go over to them tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Moluo slightly frowned and glanced at the male, "Tomorrow morning we're going to the Silver Eagle Clan Chief, and you forgot this again?"

Sensing Moluo's expression was off, Luosai, eager to survive, quickly waved his hand and said, "I remember, I do. So I told him I have something in the morning and can only go over in the afternoon."

Moluo was silent: …

Sometimes Moluo really wondered if Luosai could only think of the simplest things; tomorrow they'll go to the Silver Eagle Clan Chief, Yun Li and they will go too, and when the trade is finished, not to mention Luosai, even Moluo will have to stay by Yun Li's side all day.

After all, what he wants is the tribe's skill that can earn Crystal Core; although he can't possibly learn all those techniques himself, isn't it because there's Luosai that he lets him stay by his side—just for fun?

He will definitely also send him to learn the techniques they will trade for, and only if both of them have learned them will the things they give out not be in vain when they leave.

"Chief?"

Luosai looked at the suddenly silent Moluo in confusion, not knowing what he had said wrong again.

"It's nothing."

Moluo felt a bit mentally exhausted, but didn't want to keep criticizing the young male Luosai; he's not like him, having lived a carefree life in the city since childhood, so his simple nature is understandable. Though training him is hard work, at least he can listen, so take it slowly.

"We'll discuss any matters tomorrow; you've had a long day today, get some rest early."

"Oh!"

Luosai stared at Moluo's back and felt that the Chief might have just had something to say to him, but had forgotten.

Anything the Chief forgot to tell him was probably not a big deal.

The young male thought that, glanced at the sky, and soon entered the house.

The two of them didn't, like those small tribes and the nomadic tribe despised by the Silver Eagle Tribe, live at the foot of the mountain; instead, they spent some Crystal Core and hunted a few fierce beasts to reside within the tribe.

Of course, the Silver Eagle Tribe had no intention of hosting outside beastmen inside the tribe, so they were assigned the most outer dilapidated stone houses.

Moluo and Luosai didn't mind this; after all, they sometimes lived on the road in worse conditions. Now they had a shelter that could keep out wind and rain, with some security around, so the two have been quite comfortable lately.

Early the next day, the clamor of voices broke the pre-dawn silence once again.

Yun Li and Ji Xuan entered the residence in Jicheng; the tribe still lacks a dedicated meeting hall for conferences or receiving guests, so whenever there's something important to discuss, they come to Jicheng.

It's not that Yun Li hadn't thought of creating such a meeting hall, but after proposing it, most of the tribe's senior management opposed it, arguing that there are already places to hold meetings and receive outsiders, so why make a hall that's rarely used and requires constant cleaning.

Isn't that a waste of effort?

Moreover, Jicheng and the Priest didn't quite understand Yun Li's suggestion, so the meeting hall fell through completely.

Nevertheless, Yun Li wasn't in a hurry; as the tribe gradually develops, both a meeting hall and dedicated office spaces will be set up in time.

Just like the current workshop, under her reorganization, signs show everything is getting back on track.

……

"Lai, explain to us, what does the registration here mean? Does it require writing down any material used?"

"But we can't read; can you? If you can read, when we come to register, you could write for us."

In the tribe's workshop, because Yun Li intends to establish some regulations, using the previous incident where some artisans privately sold workshop crafts as a pretext, now artisans must not only register the materials they use, but also tally daily how many crafts they produce.

Logically, these two matters can't make other artisans who aren't involved in smuggling agree, but Yun Li can't help giving a stick and adding a sweet date.

Although materials and finished items must be registered daily—a troublesome process—Yun Li promised them that the things they produce in the future will be split fifty-fifty with the tribe, a benefit they never had before.

After all, they use the tribe's resources and enjoy its provisions; when the tribe needs these artisans to work, if they still demand payment from the tribe, wouldn't that mean they have no regard for the tribe at all.

No one can bear such a stigma, yet Yun Li gave them an opportunity that not only avoids the shame but also lets them earn Crystal Core alongside the tribe.

Most importantly, Yun Li painted a huge big picture: anyone whose future creations benefit the tribe will be titled "Master" by the workshop, and the treatment given to "Masters" will only improve, plus "Masters" will have a certain amount of say in the tribe.

"'Say' (voice of authority)—they might not understand these three words, but it means they can command the Patrol Team and Hunting Squad to do work for them; as long as they're not fools, they'll grasp how weighty this is."

So, not for any other reason, but to become the "Master" spoken of by Yun Li, the first thing they must do now is obey the rules Yun Li set for the workshop.

However, after Yun Li finished explaining everything, she clapped her hands and left in an unusually carefree manner, leaving Lai, who was assigned as the workshop manager, in a bad spot.

The number of artisans in the workshop is indeed pitiful compared to the whole tribe, but there are still forty or fifty, not counting those who refused to join when Yun Li set up the workshop; otherwise it would be seventy or eighty.

As a result, the dozen or so artisans crowded before him already gave Lai a headache, and thinking of the another thirty or forty artisans waiting for his explanations, Lai was completely overwhelmed.

He wanted to ask Mu Qing for help, but Mu Qing was pulling a few veteran artisans into his own workshop, saying something unknown, leaving him isolated.

Lai: …If I'd listened to Yun Li Adult's advice and found more artisans willing to take on tasks to lighten his load, instead of thinking I'd run the workshop myself and handle everything alone.

Indeed, it's far too late…
