The beauty who wears fast has many babies

Chapter 216 World 4: Building a House

"Also, once you have shoes made of cotton, your feet will be well protected."

"We no longer have to worry about cracks from the severe cold. That kind of piercing pain will be completely gone."

"Even those orcs with disabilities can safely survive the long and cold winter by wearing these warm and comfortable cotton shoes."

"Think about it, every time the cold winter came, how many people suffered from frozen feet, and some even lost their lives." Wu Li learned this from Aya.

"But now with cotton, everything will be different. It seems like a precious gift given to us by nature, allowing us to resist the invasion of winter and enjoy the rare warmth and tranquility." Wu Li said sincerely.

"what?!"

The patriarch was shocked and his face was full of disbelief. He widened his eyes and stared at Wu Li, as if trying to find a hint of a joke on her face.

"Are you serious? How is this possible..."

The patriarch murmured to himself, his voice trembling slightly, and it was obvious that he was deeply shocked.

He never imagined that the seemingly ordinary cotton had so many important uses and values.

Even the knowledgeable, usually calm and composed old patriarch was so excited that his face turned red. His originally cloudy eyes were now shining with excitement, his hands were unconsciously clenched into fists, and his breathing became a little rapid.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Wu Li struck while the iron was hot and said, "This cotton not only keeps us warm, but can also be used to exchange for things we need."

"In the outside world, many tribes use cotton to make clothes. It's exquisite and comfortable, and much lighter than animal skins. Furthermore, growing cotton can make the land around our tribe more fertile."

After hearing this, the patriarch nodded repeatedly and immediately decided to set aside an area specifically for cotton planting.

At this moment, everyone was immersed in their own thoughts and did not pay any attention to what Wu Li said about how the outside world used cotton.

At this time, only Rui, who was standing aside and listening quietly, flashed his eyes slightly after hearing these words, as if he was suddenly touched by something.

From this moment on, an idea began to quietly grow in Rui's heart - perhaps, the woman in front of him was really the mysterious and noble saint as the legend said.

All the previous doubts and speculations about her identity seemed to be no longer so firm at this moment.

Because only a true saint would know this knowledge that is unknown to the outside world, right?

Thinking of this, Rui couldn't help but feel more curious and concerned about Wuli.

Wu Li didn't notice Rui's gaze.

He only continued: "Of course, the most important thing is the tribe's house."

This one sentence brought everyone back to their senses from the benefits brought by cotton.

That’s right, Wuli is planning to put building houses for the tribe on the agenda.

Wu Li looked around, cleared his throat, and said, "Our current houses are just simple caves or shabby huts, which can hardly withstand heavy rain and strong winds. If we build a sturdy wooden house, it will not only protect us from the wind and rain, but also allow us to divide up more space."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.

Wu Li smiled and continued, "First, cut down suitable trees and trim their trunks to the same length and thickness. Then, use mortise and tenon joints to tightly bind them together to create a frame."

As she spoke, she picked up a branch and drew a simple structural diagram on the ground.

"What about the roof?" someone asked.

"First, make the frame, then weave it with wicker, and finally find flat stone slabs to pave it. If you're worried about rainy days, you can also apply a special kind of gum to ensure it doesn't leak."

Wu Li explained patiently.

Everyone started talking about it, and many young orcs were eager to try.

Rui stepped forward and said, "I believe in the Saint, let's try what she says."

The title of the saint was brought up solemnly, which was obviously intentional on Rui's part. His move was undoubtedly a subtle reminder to everyone present not to ignore Wu Li's extraordinary identity.

At this time, the patriarch frowned slightly and fell into a brief contemplation.

After a while, he seemed to have finally figured something out and nodded slowly, indicating his agreement with Rui.

The old patriarch Riga, who had been standing silently by the side, now smiled and nodded in agreement to Rui and Wuli.

At this moment, Wu Li suddenly spoke up, "Since we've all reached a consensus, I think we should act immediately. Let's start by collecting wood. After all, wood is an indispensable material for building houses or other facilities."

Her eyes swept over the crowd, revealing a firmness and courage.

"Okay, arrange for people to start felling trees immediately! But remember, absolutely do not damage the trees surrounding our tribe, as these trees are vital to protecting our living environment. Everyone should disperse and cut down trees in the denser woods a little further away."

The old patriarch made the request with a serious face.

Wu Li couldn't help but feel moved when she heard this. She had never imagined that in such a seemingly primitive and backward era, there would still be people who knew how to protect the environment and realize the recycling of resources.

This concept was so advanced that she couldn't help but look at the old patriarch with new respect.

"By the way, Chief, I've noticed that there are quite a few half-grown orcs and orcs with disabilities in our tribe. Although they may not be as strong as others to cut down trees, they can still lend a hand. For example, they can help peel the bark or do some simple wood processing work."

Wu Li then made a proposal to the patriarch.

At this moment, time is very tight and the manpower available for this work is very limited. Therefore, everyone must take action to complete the task on time.

What's more, if this is not done, how can those orcs with physical disabilities feel the value of themselves?

They may feel inferior and helpless because of their physical defects, and believe that they cannot contribute to the tribe like other healthy orcs.

But in fact, everyone has their own uniqueness and potential abilities, they just need an opportunity to show them.

Only by giving these disabled orcs enough attention and support and allowing them to play to their strengths can we truly help them regain their self-confidence and realize that they are an indispensable part of the entire ethnic group.

It can be seen from the fact that they work hard but receive minimal food that they are afraid of becoming a burden to the tribe.

Just like an old orc who resolutely walked into the cold wind and snow in winter.

It's just to save food. Doing this is just leaving the hope of life to the younger generation.

"Well, you make a lot of sense. Okay, then let's have everyone in the tribe eat together during this time. This will save cooking time and make unified management easier."

The patriarch thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

So, under the leadership of Wuli, the members of the tribe began to prepare materials and moved towards building new houses with full enthusiasm. A brand new living environment was about to be born in the tribe.
