Chapter 490 Discussion on A-Ming's Waist Strength and Riding [Explosion 1W]
Everyone has been waiting for a long time. It’s more than half an hour late. It’s not a big problem. It’s not a big problem (manual dog head)
*******

Manaker is not an idiot, of course he can understand what Chepke means.
"Do you want Kazuto named Majima to stay in our village?" Manakor's eyes widened.
"You saw how powerful that Majima is last night, right?" Chepke said softly, "If he becomes a member of our village, then even if there are very few men in our village now, he can make other villages
Don’t dare to look down on us or bully us.”
"But...how are you going to make that Kazuto become a member of our village?" Manakor said solemnly, "Use a woman to keep him? Didn't Aiyaka just say that? He and Nahe
Women are husband and wife, and he already has a wife."
"... Regarding this matter, let's think more about it later." Chepke raised his hands and rubbed his temples. "The top priority now is to find a way to heal the injured villagers first."
Chepke told Manakr what he had just learned from Uripashina, the only village doctor in the village, that "gunshot wounds cannot be treated".
"Uripashi can't cure it..." Manakor screamed with his eyes widened in shock.
Halfway through his words, he realized that his voice seemed a little too loud. He quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, and then changed to a softer tone:
"Uripashi can't cure those wounded by muskets? What should we do?"
As far as Manakor knew, many people had been wounded by muskets.
If these people cannot be saved... then Manakor can't imagine what the consequences will be...
"I just thought of a promising way to save them..." Chepke said softly, "Manaker, go and call..."
Chepke spit out five names in one breath.
These five people are all the names of people who are still alive and have a good status in the village.
"Then call two more people who understand Japanese."
"Move quickly." Chepke continued, "Come with me to find the white-skinned man named Skulucci later."

Qina Village, east of the village, Skulucci's camp
Scrooge has a quirk, that is, he likes sleeping in hammocks.
Even inside the tent, he tied a strong hammock inside the tent and slept in the hammock.
Although quite a lot happened last night, Scrooge still had a very comfortable sleep.
Years of adventurous life have allowed Skulucci to develop the habit of "being on the alert".
Even when sleeping, he would not take off his clothes or shoes, and would always keep his weapons within easy reach of his hands.
After a good sleep, Scrooge jumped out of the hammock and slowly walked out of his tent while stretching.
Skulucci's tent faces west.
As soon as he left the tent, a beam of sunlight hit Skulucci directly.
Today is a sunny day, the sky is blue, the sun is bright, and there are no annoying snowflakes falling.
Looking at the blue sky, Skulucci felt that even the air had become a little fresher.
Just when Skulucci was smiling and enjoying the fresh air with his hands on his hips, Avger's voice suddenly sounded from beside him:
"Boss Scrooge, are you awake?"
"Oh! Avjie! Good morning! Looking at you, you seemed to have slept well last night!"
"I exercised well last night, and of course I slept soundly, but..." Avjie smiled bitterly and rubbed his right shoulder, "After I woke up, I feel that my right shoulder is very painful..."
The recoil of the Kentucky Long Rifle is not low.
Avger, who had fired an unknown number of times with his Kentucky long rifle last night, suffered so many recoil impacts on his right shoulder. It was normal for his right shoulder to feel sore after waking up.
"Boss Scrooge, I'm going to get some food and drink. Do you want me to get you some?"
"No rush! No rush!" Skulucci waved his hand, "Afjie, at that moment, I suddenly had an idea."
"Inspiration? What inspiration?"
"The inspiration for poetry."
"Boss, can you still write poetry?" Avjie raised his eyebrows with a look of surprise on his face.
He has been following Scrooge so far, and this is the first time he has heard that Scrooge can write poetry.
"Don't underestimate me." Scrooge shrugged, "I'm far more knowledgeable than you think. Do you want to listen to the new poem I just wrote?"
"Then let me listen to the boss's poem."
"The sky is so damn blue, the sun is so damn warm, the weather is so damn great today, and it's so damn good to be alive."
"Boss, if you tell these real poets about your poem, they will definitely make you apologize to the art of poetry." Avger looked determined, as if he was speaking the truth just now.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Skulucci raised his right index finger, and then shook it left and right at Avjie, "Afjie, you just didn't understand the mystery of the poem I just said."
"Although the poem I just wrote seems very simple, it uses simple sentences to tell a very important truth that is always ignored by others. For a person, the most important thing is to live."
"Although I really don't understand poetry, I still know that there are no curse words in normal poetry. Boss, why do you add a curse word in every sentence of your poem?"
"This is not a dirty word." Skulucci said seriously, "Afjie, hasn't anyone told you?"
"Swear words can not only be used to curse people, but they can also be used as modal particles to increase the tone of speech."
"For example, 'You are so fucking annoying,' is much more powerful than 'You are so annoying,' and it is easier to convey your 'disgust' to others."
"So every curse word in my poem is a modal particle, used to strengthen the tone."
"It allows readers to more deeply understand how blue the sky was, how warm the sun was, how great the weather was when the author wrote this poem, and how important 'living' is to everyone.
.”
As soon as Skulucci finished speaking, Avger raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.
"I can't do it anymore. I feel like if I continue to listen to your nonsense, boss, I will no longer be able to look directly at the art of poetry."
"I'm going to have breakfast. See you later, boss."
After saying that, Avger quickly ran away from Skulucci as if he was running away.
"It's so boring!"
Skulucci curled his lips at Avger's back.
"It's rare that poetry is so popular today. I want to talk more about poetry with people."
Scrooge, who had just woken up, was not too hungry yet.
Skulucci, who was not in a hurry to have breakfast, turned his head and looked to the west, in the direction of Qina Village.
Because there was a tent blocking the way, Skulucci could not see what Qina Village looked like now.
But even so, Skulucci still cast his gaze straight to the western sky.
When he was getting ready to go to bed last night, he vaguely heard shouts and low cries coming from the village. Skulucci guessed that these were probably the sounds made by the villagers of Qina Village when they were cleaning up the village.
"...It's so miserable." Looking at the western sky, Scrooge murmured in a low voice that only he could hear clearly.
"Boss!"
At this time, a sudden announcement sounded, forcing Scrooge to move his eyes away from the western sky and turn to the owner of the sound.
The owner of this voice was an ordinary subordinate under Skulucci.
"What's the matter?" Scrooge asked.
"A group of Ainu people from the nearby village have arrived. They are now outside the camp gate." The subordinate replied concisely and concisely. "They talked a lot, but I can't understand the Ainu language.
I don’t understand Japanese either, so I don’t know what they are here for.”
Scrooge raised an eyebrow.
The “village next door” mentioned by this subordinate was naturally referring to Qina Village.
After Qina Village sent a group of people over to learn about this, Skulucci just raised his eyebrows without any trace of surprise on his face.
"Thank you for your hard work." After Scrooge praised the subordinate who came to report the news, he strode towards the camp gate.
"I'll go meet them."
Skulucci was the only one of the group who spoke Japanese.
So only Scrooge can communicate with them.
After the camp gate appeared in his field of vision, Skulucci saw Chepke and others standing outside the camp gate from a distance.
After discovering that the village chief personally brought the people here, a hint of surprise finally appeared in Skulucci's eyes.
He quickened his pace a little and came to Chepke and others. Before Skulucci could say anything, Chepke took the lead and bowed to Skulucci and said:
"Skullucci, we saw how helpful you were to us last night."
"We will never forget everyone who helped us."
"I'm here to say thank you. (Ainu language)"
After learning from Ogata that Skulucci had helped them last night, Chepke asked different villagers for confirmation.
Many villagers also saw Skulucci and others staying outside the village last night to provide remote assistance to them, confirming that "Skullucci helped them" was indeed true.
After listening to the translator's translation, Skulucci carefully looked at Chepke's face several times and waved his hand.
"This is not a good place to talk. Come with me."
After that, Skulucci signaled to the men responsible for guarding the door to let them go, and then led Chepke and others to his tent.
Along the way, Chepke and the others naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Skulucci's subordinates, not knowing the purpose of the sudden arrival of the Ainu, cast doubtful and curious glances at Chepke.
Although I know that these "white-skinned people" around are not the same group as the group of "white-skinned people" who attacked their village last night.
But seeing these faces with deep features and fair skin, Chepke and the others still felt a little uncomfortable, so they deliberately did not look at the people around them, and only looked straight ahead, looking at the people leading the way.
Skulucci's back view.
Skulucci's tent was barely big enough for the Chepuk to stand inside.
After leading Chepke and the others into his tent, Skulucci sat down on the hammock, facing Chepke and the others.
As soon as Chepke and others entered the tent, they bowed to Skulucci again and said in a more solemn tone than before:
"Thank you very much for the helping hand you extended to us last night."
"Thank you very much."
"We will never treat anyone who helps us badly."
"Although our village is not rich, we will do our best to give you generous thank you gifts."
Chepke wanted to say something more, but Chepke suddenly raised his hand to indicate that he did not need to say any more.
"I have received your thanks."
"Thank you for the gift, etc., we can talk about it in detail later."
"Now tell me other things."
Speaking of this, Skulucci changed his tone with a hint of joking.
"You came here with such serious eyes and expressions, maybe it's not just to thank me, right?"
Although Skulucci's sentence is in the form of a question, its tone is that of an affirmative sentence.
Seeing Skulucci accurately stating his intention, a bit of embarrassment flashed across Chepke's face.
But he quickly regained his composure.
"...I came to you this time. In addition to wanting to thank you in person, I do have other things I want to discuss with you."
Speaking of this, despite trying his best to control it, there was still a bit of urgency in Chepke's tone.
"Many villagers in our village were injured by muskets last night."
"Our doctors are not good at treating gunshot wounds like this."
"Can your doctor treat a musket wound?"
"If it can be cured, I would like to ask you to send your doctors to help us!"
The Ainu, who are still in a tribal civilization, have not developed a complex "ceremonial culture" and do not have too many red tapes.
Therefore, the vast majority of Ainu people speak very straightforwardly and do not talk too many convoluted things.
Chepke told their request straightforwardly without any unnecessary nonsense.
Ask Skulucci for help. This is the only way that Chepke has just come up with to treat the villagers who have been wounded by gunshots in this situation.
Scrooge and the others are also white-skinned men and use the same muskets.
So Chepke guessed that their doctors might have mastered the technology of treating gunshot wounds and knew how to treat gunshot wounds.
As long as there is any chance to heal more villagers who were shot, Chepke is not willing to let it go.
Scrooge really likes people who speak straightforwardly and don't tolerate bending. When chatting with such people, you don't have to worry about spending too much time talking nonsense.
"I see... Do you want to borrow a doctor from us..." Skulucci said softly.
Skulucci's face was expressionless and his tone was flat, making it difficult for Chepke and others to understand what he was thinking.
"Of course, we won't ask you to help us in vain."
Chepke added hastily.
"We will do our best to give you the reward you want!"
Scrooge stretched out his right index finger to dig his ear, thought for a moment, and then said slowly:
"It's not impossible if you want to borrow our doctor."
A look of hope appeared on Chepke's face.
"but"
Skulucci's sudden "but" made the hope on Chepke's face freeze for a moment.
"I have to tell you first."
"A gunshot wound is a troublesome wound."
Scrooge raised his left index finger and kept twirling it.
"Today's bullets fly in circles."
"After being injected into the human body, it will cause great damage to the human body."
"Current medical skills are not developed enough to be able to heal all people who have been injured by gunshots."
"For someone who was shot in the upper body, the chance of being cured is very slim."
"Most people who are shot in their limbs have to have their limbs amputated."
"And my doctor's medical skills are not so great that he can even bring a dead person back from death."
"Even if I send my doctors to help you, only a handful of your villagers who have been injured by gunshots will be able to recover as before."
Skulucci pressed the pads of his thumb and index finger together, indicating to Chepke and others the small gap between the thumb nail and the index finger nail.
"Most of your villagers who have been wounded by gunshots will still die or become disabled."
"Even so, do you still want to ask my doctor to help?"
After listening to the translator's translation, Chepke's face looked ugly now.
But he only remained silent for a short while, then nodded gently:
"……I see."
"Thank you for informing me."
"But I still want to ask your doctor to help. (Ainu)"
Chepke had no choice.
Even Skulucci's doctors couldn't cure all the people with gunshot wounds, but at least they could save a few.
If Skulucci and the others were not asked for help, as they did not know how to treat gunshot wounds, all the villagers who had suffered gunshot wounds would have died.
"I've told you everything that needs to be told," Skulucci said. "Don't go back on your word, or blame us for not curing everyone after you start treatment."
With that, Scrooge jumped from the hammock.
"Although I consider myself a pretty good-hearted person, I am not so kind-hearted that I always give freely."
"If you want to ask my doctor for help, you must pay some compensation."
Upon hearing this, Chepke showed a solemn expression, as if he was preparing to hear some bad news.
Looking at the expressions of Chepke and the others, Skulucci couldn't help but smile.
"Don't worry I will ask you to give you some very embarrassing reward."
"What I want shouldn't be difficult for you to choose between."
…
…
Both Ogata and Amachi participated in organizing the village last night.
After working hard until dawn, Ogata and Omachi began to take a rest.
Aiyaka had already set off just now, returning to Kuma Village to ask the doctor from Kuma Village to come and help Qina Village.
Although Ogata knew that the relationship between Kuma Village and Qina Village was very good, he did not expect that it would be so good.
Last night, after learning that there were far more injuries than expected in Qina Village and that there was not enough medicine, Ayyaka said almost without thinking: I will ask the doctor and medicine from Kuma Village.
At the same time, he also said: The doctor from Kuma Village will definitely come back.
There is only one person riding the sled, and if the number of sled dogs pulling the sled is large enough and the bodies are strong enough, Ayaka will hopefully return in the evening.
So before leaving the village, Ayaka gathered a total of 8 sled dogs, including his own dogs, with the help of the villagers in Qina Village.
8 sled dogs This is the limit of the number of sled dogs that Aiyaka can control.
Since last night, the villagers of Qina Village have been helping to take care of the residence of Ogata, their benefactor.
There happened to be an empty house in their village.
The original owner of this empty house had moved to another village with their daughter because their daughter got married in another village half a month ago.
Their house was sold to Chepke at a low price.
Chepke plans to use the empty house as a sled dog house in the future.
Because this empty house had only been acquired for half a month, Chepke had not had time to put their dog into the house. Now the house is truly empty, with nothing except a little furniture.
It's just right for Ogata and others to live in.
At Chepke's request, several villagers quickly cleaned the house and prepared bedding and other necessities for Ogata and the others.
After working all night, Ogata and Omachi finally began to rest, and now they finally returned to the temporary "home" prepared for them by the villagers.
The first thing they do when they get home is take a shower.
To be more precise, it was Amachi who gave Ogata a bath.
Although last night, every time Ogata killed someone, he tried his best to prevent the enemy's blood from splattering on himself.
But no matter how you dodge, there is a limit. In the ever-changing battle, it is impossible to dodge every drop of blood.
After the battle last night, Ogata was basically in a "half-blooded" state.
The blood splashed on his body had even soaked through his clothes and stained Ogata's flesh.
If you don't take a shower as soon as possible, the smell of sweat and blood will make all the pigs in the pig pen dislike Ogata.
Therefore, after helping the villagers clean up the village and working all night, when they came home, Amachi, who had already smelled a strange smell starting from Ogata's body, immediately asked to give Ogata a bath.
…
…
"How is it? Is the water temperature too hot?" Amachi asked Ogata, who was lowering his head and immersing his hair in the basin.
"It seems to be a little too hot." Ogata said.
"Then let me add a little more cold water." Amachi scooped up the cold water from the bucket next to him with a ladle and added it to the hot water basin used by Lai Ogata to wash his hair.
Except for Ogata and Omachi, there was no one else in this empty room.
Because there were no outsiders around, Ogata didn't have to worry about anyone peeking at him, although he wasn't afraid of anyone peeking at him either.
"I think my hair that I haven't washed for a month is cleaner than your hair now." Amachi complained about Ogata's current hair in a tone that was neither salty nor bland.
Due to limited conditions, it was naturally impossible for Ogata to take a bath in a large tub. He could only fill a basin with hot water and then use a rag to scrub his body.
Regarding whether to wash their hair or their body first, both Ogata and Omachi chose to wash their body first without hesitation.
Ogata's hair...the way it looks now is unbearable to look at.
After the blood spilled on his hair dried, it condensed into clumps, turning Ogata's hair into "clumps".
After immersing the hair in hot water, part of the blood clots melted, and the transparent water quickly turned into light red blood.
"I know..." Ogata himself knows that his hair is very disgusting now... "Ah, it hurts a little, please be gentle."
Atachi, who was sitting next to Ogata and washing Ogata's hair, gradually spread out Ogata's hair that was clumps of blood.
It was a lot of work to remove the knotted hair without hurting Ogata. Soon Ogata felt that his fingers started to feel sore.
"Would you like to try shaving your head in the future?" Omachi asked Ogata, "Shaving your head will be very convenient whether you are washing your hair or fighting with others."
"Absolutely not." Ogata replied in a firm tone without thinking.
Even if Ogata dies, he will not shave his head like the Mediterranean.
The two of them have been busy since last night, and their nerves have been in a state of tension.
It was only now that their tense nerves finally relaxed.
As their nerves relaxed, the two of them began to chat about some light topics to pass the boring time in the bath.
"It seems we won't have to buy guns from that Skruchy anymore." Amachi whispered to Ogata, "Now there are a bunch of Kentucky long rifles for us to choose from."
"Yes." Ogata couldn't help but smile, "Not only are weapons at our disposal, horses are also at our disposal."
Ogata and the others almost had the "benefit of re-creating" Qina Village.
If Ogata and the villagers of Qina Village expressed that they wanted to take some of the weapons and horses confiscated from those white-skinned people, the villagers would never refuse.
"In addition to weapons, I also plan to get two horses." Ogata said, "With horses, we can use horses to travel in the future."
"A horse..." Azing looked confused, "I can't ride a horse..."
Horses can be said to be a scarce resource in Japan.
No one with any financial resources or channels can get a horse.
In Shiranui's previous state of decline, it was naturally impossible to have the financial resources to allow the ninjas in the village to conduct equestrian training.
"I can teach you." Ogata said, "The horses used by the Cossacks seem to have been strictly trained, and their personalities seem to be quite docile. It shouldn't be difficult to ride them."
"Is equestrian difficult?" Amachi asked.
No, after all, you have practiced on me before, and your waist has already developed enough strength. After this joke came to Ogata's mouth, Ogata forcefully swallowed it back.
Although Omachi has a warm and open temperament, as a native of the Edo period, she is still quite conservative in some aspects.
If A-Machi heard the colorful joke he just said, Ogata guessed that she would definitely hit him, so Ogata forced the joke back into his stomach.
"No." Ogata said casually, "People with a good waist can learn to ride a horse faster. With your waist, Atachi, you should be able to learn quickly."
"Is my waist good?" Ating touched his lower back, "I think my waist strength is average. I can only do about 500 'bend's in one breath."
The so-called "bend" is a method of physical exercise passed down from generation to generation in Shiranui.
Atachi once told Ogata about it and also demonstrated it to Ogata.
At that time, after seeing Ogata's "flexion" demonstrated by Omachi, Ogata's only thought was, isn't this just sit-ups?
That's right, the so-called "bend" is basically the same as the modern "sit-ups".
"Your waist strength is already very good."
After all, you are someone who can even collapse a table after sitting on it...
Ogata silently added in his heart.
At the beginning, Ogata met A-Machi honestly for the first time on a table he brought from Mamiya that could be used as a low bed.
Early the next morning, a corner of the table collapsed.
Ogata always felt that Atachi had to bear the responsibility for the collapse of the table.
At this time, Atachi had just washed Ogata's hair and started to dry Ogata's hair with another clean towel.
"There are a lot of Kentucky long rifles for us to take now." Ogata said to Amachi, who was holding a towel behind him to wipe his hair, "Do you want to take a few more at once?"
"That's what I meant."
Amachi Road.
"I'm going to get five Kentucky long rifles."
"Isn't five handfuls too few?" Ogata responded in a half-joking tone, "Would you like to get a few more?"
"Five is enough."
"The Kentucky Long Rifle is not light in weight. If you hold it too much, it will become a burden."
Having said this, A-Machi paused.
Then he sighed.
"I used that Kentucky long rifle once last night. It was much more powerful than I imagined."
"It's more powerful than the iron cannons I modified that I used before..."
"I didn't expect that the Southern Barbarians had developed such a powerful iron cannon..."
"It's a pity that the Kentucky Long Rifle is still a bit heavy. It would be nice if it could be lighter."
"I saw a guy using a short blunderbuss last night." Ogata said, "You should be able to find a few short blunderbuss among the weapons left by this group of Cossacks. Do you want to pick out a few short blunderbuss and take them away?"
"Short guns..." Azing muttered, "Then let's take them together. Short guns are small anyway, so it doesn't matter if you carry a few more with you."
After a brief discussion, Ogata and Atachi quickly decided on the trophies they would take away.
Ogata's hair dries very quickly. It only took a while for Ogata's hair to dry.
"Okay, it's time to wash your body." Amachi casually threw the towel aside, "Take off your dirty clothes quickly..."
"Mashima Goro! Majima Goro! Is Majima Goro here?"
Before Omachi could finish what he said, a very non-standard "Mashima Goro" suddenly sounded outside the house one after another.
It's an unfamiliar voice.
Ogata, who was confused in his heart, tightened the clothes he had just opened and then walked quickly outside the house.
Outside the house, there was a middle-aged man and an elderly man.
The old man was a very familiar person to Ogata.
"Chief of Chepke Village?" Ogata raised his eyebrows vigorously.
This middle-aged man is Chepke, the head of Qina Village.
Looking at Ogata with his hair disheveled and still a little damp, Chepke was stunned for a moment, and then asked:
"Sorry, I didn't know you were taking a shower. I'll come back later. (Ainu)"
As soon as Chepke finished speaking, the middle-aged man standing next to Chepke quickly translated Chepke's words into Japanese.
Ogata asked: "Village chief, do you want to see me for something?"
Chepke nodded:
"I have something... quite important to talk to you about. (Ainu language)"
Pretty important thing?
Ogata, who felt doubtful and curious in his heart, nodded:
"That's it...I understand, then you can come in first."
"If I come in now, will it really not hinder you? (Ainu)" Chepke hesitated.
"No." Ogata shook his head, "Don't worry, I just washed my hair. It won't disturb me. Come in quickly."
Seeing that Ogata had said this, Chepke no longer hesitated and led his translator quickly into Ogata and Omachi's house.
Ogata sat cross-legged on the floor, opposite Chepke.
As soon as Ogata sat down on the floor, he immediately asked Chepke:
"Village Chief, I wonder why you came to see me this time?"
"I came to you this time mainly for three things."
Chepke said bluntly.
"First of all, the first thing I want to do is to formally thank you."
After saying that, Chepke bowed to Ogata, and then solemnly said to Ogata:
"Mashima Goro, Omachi. Thank you very much for your assistance to our village last night."
"We will never forget your kindness to our village."
"We will neither forget our kindness nor treat anyone who has been kind to us unfairly."
"If you encounter any trouble later or want something, please feel free to tell us."
"As long as it is something that our village can handle, I will use the strength of the whole village to help you. (Ainu language)"
As soon as Chepke finished speaking, Oubon immediately smiled bitterly and said:
"You are welcome."
"We just did what we could."
Ogata used the polite saying he often said: "I just did what I could."
"I have received your thoughts and thanks. You just said you wanted to tell me three things. What are the other two things besides thanking you?"
Ogata, who didn't want to dwell on the topic of "thank you" for too long, took the initiative to change the topic.
"The second thing is that I'm here to give Scrooge a message."
"Bring a message?" Ogata raised his eyebrows, "Chief Chepke, did that Skulucci come to you just now?"
"No." Chepke shook his head, "He is not looking for me, but I am looking for him."
Speaking of this, a faintly moved smile appeared on Chepke's face.
…
…
Turn back time to just now
Scrooge's camp
"Don't worry I will ask you to give you some very embarrassing reward."
"What I want shouldn't be difficult for you to choose between."
As soon as the translator translated Skulucci's words to Chepke and others, they all cast doubtful and nervous glances at Skulucci.
They waited for Scrooge to reveal the reward he wanted.
"I just need one...ah, no, two things."
Scrooge held out two fingers.
"A lot of meat and a lot of wine."
"Meat and wine? (Ainu language)" Chepke's eyes widened in astonishment.
"That's right! It's meat and wine!" Scrooge put away his two raised fingers, "We are about to celebrate a festival called 'Meat Lenten'."
"In this festival of ours, everyone should eat meat to their heart's content and revel to their heart's content."
"There are about 50 of my subordinates in total."
"I hope you can provide enough meat and wine for me and my subordinates to eat for at least 5 days."
"Any kind of meat is fine. Venison or bear meat."
"We also accept jerky."
"I don't need any thank you gifts from you either."
"As long as you provide us with enough meat and wine as I just said."
"I will take this meat and wine as your thank you gift and as payment for hiring our doctor."
"How? Do you agree?"
Although the words Skulucci just said are very large, the Japanese translator of Chepke and his team is very good. When Skulucci finished speaking, the translator also
Translation completed.
After listening to the translator's translation, Chepke was stunned for a moment.
Then he nodded hurriedly with excitement on his face:
"Okay! No problem! We will provide you with enough meat and wine!"
Chepke had already imagined in advance the various demands that Skulucci might make.
He never expected that Scrooge's request would be so simple.
All he wanted was meat and wine.
The Ainu live a life of fishing and hunting, and it is easy for them to obtain large amounts of meat.
Wine is more troublesome. It cannot be brewed quickly, but they can borrow it from several villages with good connections, such as Kuma Village.
Drinks are not a very valuable thing, and villages such as Kuma Village will definitely be happy to lend the drinks stored in their villages to Qina Village.
Afraid that Skulucci would regret it, Chepke nodded vigorously with a speed and force that seemed to shake his own head off.
"In that case, the deal is done."
Scrooge smiled.
"There are four doctors under my command."
"Two of them are here now."
"The other two people and most of the medicines are with my deputy."
The deputy Skulucci mentioned was none other than Vasily.
"I'm going to send someone to my deputy now and ask them to come over."
"They probably won't arrive until tomorrow."
"Today I can only send the two doctors who are here with me to help you first."
"Okay, no problem! (Ainu)" Chepke said.
The transaction with Skulucci ended much smoother and more successfully than Czepke had imagined.
Just as Chepke was leading his people to return to their village, Skulucci suddenly stopped him:
"Ah, by the way, I almost forgot about this." Scrooge patted his forehead, "Village chief, when you return to your village later, can you give me a message to Majima Goro?
?”
"Mashima Goro?"
"That's right. Bring me a message to Majima Goro: 'Please come to my camp as soon as possible. I have something to ask him.'"
"Do you have a message... um." Chepke nodded, "I understand."

Timeline returns to present
"Skullucci asked me to go find him?" Ogata frowned slightly, "Did Skulucci tell you why he came to me?"
"No." Chepke shook his head, "He didn't say. (Ainu language)"
Could it be that he wants to continue asking me for clues about the Kazuto he is currently looking for...
Just last night, when Skulucci was about to say the name of the person he had been looking for, Vladimir and others happened to start an attack on Qina Village, causing Skulucci to be interrupted.
Ogata also failed to hear the name of the Kazuto Scrooge was looking for.
"I understand. Village chief, thank you for your message."
Having said this, Ogata paused for a moment, and then changed into an emotional tone.
"It's so nice to be able to get Scrooge's doctor so easily."
"Yes..." Chepke sighed together, "Skullucci's doctors have now begun to treat the injured."
"Now I just hope to save as many people as possible..."
"Now that Skulucci's doctor is helping," Ogata said with relief, "more people will definitely be rescued."
"I hope so..." Chepke smiled bitterly.
After showing a wry smile, Chepke took a deep breath and reorganized his emotions and expression.
"Then I've brought Skulucci's words."
"Mashima Goro. Now...I have a question to ask you."
Speaking of this, Chepke hesitated for some reason.
At the same time, his eyes were subconsciously glanced at Atachi, who was sitting behind Ogata.
There was a little hesitation in his eyes.
But these hesitations did not appear in Chepke's eyes for long.
After only a moment, these hesitant expressions turned into determination:
"Mashima Goro. I want to ask you if you are willing to marry another wife in our village and stay in our village?"
