Before the moon went dark, all the roofs were finally completed, and the entire courtyard was finally completed as scheduled according to Xu Chen's plan.
Looking at the huge, spacious and neat courtyard in front of him, as well as the cheering tribesmen and a large group of foreign helpers in the courtyard, Xu Chen was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
Time flies so fast, almost half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
The big house in front of me was built under my own planning and arrangement.
Every brick, every stone, every tree, every grass here has the sweat of their own hard work.
Of course, what is even more tiring is the group of men and women in front of me.
Both the Ba people and the foreigners who helped worked hard.
Just picking up tens of thousands of stones from the river beach is an extremely huge project.
In addition, making tens of thousands of mud bricks and cutting down hundreds of logs are extremely physically demanding activities.
If all these were accomplished by more than a dozen men from the Ba tribe, it is estimated that they may not be able to succeed in another half a year.
Therefore, until the moment when the construction was completed, he didn't know how big a step he had taken. Not only did he pull his balls, he even almost lost them.
It was originally thought that the work could be completed before the beginning of spring with the help of nine old and weak men of the Ba ethnic group, but in the end, after nearly forty strong foreign laborers were hired to participate, the task was barely completed before the beginning of spring.
Therefore, the essence of infrastructure mania is population.
But population is what he lacks most right now.
So with tears in his eyes, Xu Chen looked at a group of foreign employees drooling over this luxurious mansion, and he also began to drool.
If he can keep all these strong savages, then the Ba tribe will be able to exert more powerful power in his hands. Not only can they carry out construction, but they can also train an army of dozens of people. Only in this way can he truly
Develop faster while ensuring the safety of the tribe.
It's a pity... I don't have enough auntie.
Xu Chen felt extremely regretful and regretful.
He didn't dare to stay with these men any longer.
After all, they are all young and strong and have been vegetarians for several months. They are fed and served every day. Now it is the time when they are so exhausted that they are panicking. When they see the women of the Ba tribe going down the mountain, each of them can't help but feel a little like a wild wolf.
Staying with them, he was really worried that one day someone would get wild and drag a certain aunt to a remote corner of the countryside to cause trouble.
Although my aunts and cousins may not resist, and may even be happy to do so, once this happens, it is likely to cause violent conflicts between Ba men and these foreign men.
There are thirty-nine strong men on the other side, and there are only eighteen men on our side including myself. Except for Feng and other seven or eight young and strong men, most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled.
After a conflict, the men of the Ba ethnic group may be wiped out. Then these foreign men will stay with the Ba ethnic group, live in their own big houses, sleep with their own aunts, occupy their own kilns, and live a happy life in the dove's nest from then on.
, I spent a lot of time and effort to make wedding clothes for others.
This kind of ending is absolutely not allowed to happen.
The best thing to do at the moment is to cross the river and demolish the bridge, blow out the lamp and pull out the wax, let these people go back and forth from wherever they are, take the pottery they worked hard to get, and roll it as far away as possible to completely eliminate this danger.
So on the night when the house was built, Xu Chen had a jar of vine fruit wine brought down from the mountain, took out a large amount of food and fresh fish, and held the largest celebration and farewell event in history in the courtyard of the new house.
After getting drunk from the meal, Xu Chen expressed his grand gratitude to a group of foreign helpers and reminded them that they can go home tomorrow.
"Gui Ga?!"
When they heard Xu Chen say this long-lost word, a group of foreign men who had been chatting and chatting noisily while drinking suddenly fell silent as if their necks were being pinched.
Only then did they remember that this was not their tribe.
I and a group of companions stayed here just to help with the work and exchange pottery for the tribe.
Now that the house is repaired and the work is done, it's really time to go back.
They have arrived in early winter, and spring will begin in a few days. In the blink of an eye, they have spent the entire winter in the Ba tribe.
This winter experience can be said to be the most profound and unforgettable time in their lives.
When they thought of leaving such a lively place, leaving such a comfortable and spacious house, leaving such a warm and hospitable Ba people, and returning to their own tribe, which is lonely, cold and full of monotonous and boring life, everyone instantly felt like a basin of cold water was poured over them.
As soon as it fell, the lively mood disappeared without a trace in an instant.
In an instant, the fish soup is no longer fresh, the fish balls are no longer delicate, the yam is no longer fragrant, the fruit wine is no longer sweet, and the whole thing is tasteless.
"Guiga!"
Someone stood up after being silent for a long time, and staggered toward the door with a sad expression.
"Guiga!"
More men stood up, some with sad faces, some with red eyes, some even couldn't help lowering their heads and wiping their tears, and then walked out one after another, listless and staggering, as if they were visiting a brothel.
It's like money being driven out.
The men, women, and children of the Ba ethnic group looked at each other and didn't know what to say.
Xu Chen's decision was indeed a bit unexpected.
Although these people consume a lot of food in the Ba tribe, without their help, such a big, beautiful and strong house would not have been repaired so quickly.
In fact, during these two months of interactions, everyone has become very familiar with each other, and many of them have even formed deep friendships. They work together, eat together, chat and spank together, and wrestle and learn archery together.
, if Xu Chen hadn’t suddenly mentioned it, many people would have completely forgotten that they were all foreigners.
There are even several men who were once married to Uzbek people.
They are all the sons of their mother and several older women.
Due to the bond of blood, Muba and a group of women have begun to regard them as their own tribe.
But at this time, many people woke up. The married men threw water. They were no longer Ba people. They stayed and worked just to get more pottery. Now that the house was repaired, it was indeed time to go back.
.
Seeing Ru Sangkao's concubine staggering out of the courtyard and meeting the foreigners sleeping in the kiln one after another, a group of men from the Ba ethnic group still felt a little bit sorry, so many of them stood up and followed her, hugging the guys they usually chatted with and putting their arms around each other to comfort them.
The sentence is nothing more than saying that if we come to play often in the future, we will also come to see your scene.
So a grand and joyful bonfire dinner ended in vain because Xu Chen blew out the lamp and pulled out the wax.
Although the dinner atmosphere became a bit deserted, all the Ba people were still very excited and started to make noise after a group of sad foreigners left.
When Xu Chen said he wanted to build a house at the foot of the mountain, everyone thought it was similar to a small stone house like a kiln factory. Although they all supported it, they didn't think much about it. After all, it was the first time they heard the word house and they couldn't understand it.
Imagine what the Sihe Courtyard described by Xu Chen is like. All you know is that two adults can live in a room, with shelter from wind and rain and a spacious big bed. Living there is definitely much more comfortable than in a cave.
But they didn't expect that the house would be so big after it was repaired, and there would be such a large open space in the center. Each house would be spacious, bright, neat and clean, far exceeding their expectations.
At the beginning of the bonfire party, Xu Chen told everyone that they can move into the big house today, and each two adults can be assigned a separate room.
So before the dinner was over, a group of foreigners had just left sadly, and all the Ba people couldn't wait to ask Mother Ba to allocate a house.
