Yet only approximately ten days remained until the rainy season arrived. There was just not enough time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, any manually constructed wooden canopy might not prove sturdy, and likely could not support itself for long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This…\" Yan Jiao also felt tremendously shocked, momentarily speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He circled around the trees, meticulously examining the Shaman’s masterpiece.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shaman, can a Shaman Technique truly do this?\" Yan Jiao genuinely could not believe his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had previously heard Su Bai discuss the forest farmland plan. Specifically, the plan to cultivate crops during the rainy season.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this year’s timeline was already too constrained. They would have to wait until next spring to build up the wooden canopy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in merely the time it took to drink water, this forest farmland was already protected by an enormous tree barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you believe this wooden canopy will allow us to cultivate crops during the rainy season?\" Su Bai asked in a slightly relaxed tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Absolutely possible, Shaman. Rainwater will be limited, so the crops can be protected.\" Yan Jiao responded without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at the canopy above, carefully observing the gaps between interwoven branches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He discovered the gaps connected extremely well. The rainwater falling from the sky would find it hard to fully penetrate through and reach the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, let’s move on to the next task. We must implement drainage too.\" Su Bai frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He surveyed the area, discovering the farmland’s soil did not differ significantly from the surrounding terrain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meaning during the rainy season, with daily rainfall, water from other areas would flow through this farmland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, crops cultivated in the farmland would be affected, precisely why he needed to consider drainage measures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shaman, what is drainage?\" Yan Jiao was completely unfamiliar with this concept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Drainage will allow the farmland to receive rainwater without becoming flooded by that rainwater.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Bai examined the soil on the ground, continuing, \"We need multiple drainage measures. Otherwise, we cannot accommodate excessive rain, which would drown the crops alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shaman, just give the orders. I’ll immediately have the Warriors construct the drainage, enabling us to cultivate crops during the rainy season.\" Yan Jiao became serious immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally planned to arrange other tasks today, but hearing the Shaman intended to implement the previously mentioned rainy season cultivation plan…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could not concern himself with other Tribe work, only wanting to quickly observe the implementation process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We don’t need Warriors for these tasks. Many future activities won’t require Warriors either.\" Su Bai planned a reform. Most matters in Tribes depended on Totem Warriors to complete. Without Totem Warriors in the Tribes, everyone’s task would be completed far slower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he wished to change the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not have Warriors do it? Shaman, if ordinary people do it, it might take even longer.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Jiao appeared somewhat troubled, stating directly, \"We might not complete it before the rainy season arrives.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, for the Tribe, time was of the essence, so they needed to work extremely quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This explained why the Tribe previously relied on Warriors to construct wood houses and handle various other tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This time I have designed a blueprint, plus with more people, we will be able to meet the deadline.\" Su Bai stated confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does the Shaman have a good plan in mind?\" Yan Jiao asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The farmland’s drainage channel is simple. Just follow the blueprint. Anyone can do it.\" Su Bai had Yu Ying produce a blueprint, handing it over. \"Look at this blueprint. Starting today, have members begin construction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had already instructed the Tribe’s stonemasons to manufacture hoes and iron rakes and similar agricultural tools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Warriors were not needed to handle these tasks. Ordinary people could do them directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\" Yan Jiao accepted the blueprint and began examining it. The more he looked, the wider his red eyes grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He discovered everything depicted was extraordinarily realistic, something nobody else could accomplish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tribe currently had no one capable of drawing, and even if someone could, they likely could not reach the Shaman’s level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because when he had previously gone to the Spotted Deer Tribe to trade, he had the fortune of seeing someone else’s artwork.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently that person was a quite famous artist, yet that painting was unappealing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. At the time of viewing, it seemed acceptable, but comparing it to Su Bai’s drawing, there was an astronomical difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is it? Can the drainage channels in the blueprint be completed?\" Su Bai still needed to ask the other’s opinion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he did not understand the normal members as thoroughly as the Chieftain, so he needed to assess his perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the drainage channels the Shaman had drawn, we should complete this in three or four days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yan Jiao’s red eyes never left the blueprint, continuing. \"This way, it seems our crops truly won’t be affected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt tremendously shocked. This concept was too advanced, something absolutely nobody else could conceive. At least, that was his assessment, because he had encountered quite a few people, yet none were as intelligent as the Shaman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Excellent. I’m entrusting this task to you. You must complete it before the rainy season arrives.\" Su Bai instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Su Bai harboured another different idea, something completely dependent on the System.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to see if future System rewards might yield different Skills. If he could obtain his desired Skill, everything would become exponentially more efficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, Shaman. I’ll definitely handle this matter properly.\" Yan Jiao responded with utmost seriousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For no other reason than seeing the natural barrier overhead, his heart suddenly felt the weight of this mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He absolutely must complete this task properly, otherwise he would fail to honour the Shaman’s current masterpiece.\u003C\u002Fp>",1031,"2026-06-05T22:27:03.622Z",1,"novelbin.me","a1ddf94c9c363395cf58ff2f1b2ccc4beceeeb7e1d301209b42502d9fb5da9c1","i-became-the-chief-of-a-primitive-village-chapter-815","i-became-the-chief-of-a-primitive-village-chapter-814",983,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-the-chief-of-a-primitive-village-cover.jpg"]
