Chapter 172
After these few trips, it's time for lunch.
Shouzheng was about to take Jiang Luoluo home when he saw a familiar figure walking towards him in the distance.
It is a spear.
Jiang Luoluo raised her arm high and waved it, "Go!"
Ge saw Shou was slightly taken aback, but didn't say anything, probably because he was already used to it, that cubs could always find "companions".
After getting closer, he nodded to Shou and said thank you.
Jiang Luoluo returned to Ge's side with light steps and took Ge's hand.
Shou didn't insist on following, but simply waved to Jiang Luoluo, "Luo, I'll pick you up this afternoon."
Ge then looked up and said, "I can take Luo this afternoon."
Shou shook his head. "I've already promised Luo, so let me do it. I also want to thank Luo."
Ge looked at Shou carefully, making sure he wasn't being polite or joking, then scratched his head and said, "Alright then, I'll leave Luo to you."
Promises are very important in the tribe. Most people are simple-minded, so they must keep their word.
There are a few exceptions, but the tribe members can tell the difference between sincerity and pretense. It's not some lofty concept; it's just instinct and intuition.
It's not that they can be so powerful as to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but they can sense whether something is "serious" or "perfunctory." The tribespeople can tell which words are taken seriously and which are just polite perfunctory remarks.
Once you've spoken up, you must complete the task, no matter how big or small.
As the two figures gradually walked away, the sound of their conversation could still be heard carried on the wind.
"Ge, how did you know I was here? Did you search for me place by place?"
"I just thought Luo should have arrived here by now, so I came over."
"You really didn't search place by place?"
"Really do not have."
"Hehe, okay then, I believe you."
……
In the afternoon, Shou arrived as promised. Ge filled the cub's water cup with water, and checked that the whistle and some tools were brought before handing Jiang Luoluo to Shou.
Watching Ge walk towards the training ground at Dashishan, Shoulue sighed, "Ge really cares about you."
"Of course!" Jiang Luoluo said proudly, puffing out her chest.
It is something to be very proud of to be cared for by someone like that.
"So, what are our plans for this afternoon?" Shou asked.
Jiang Luoluo straightened her clothes and pointed in the direction of the elderly people's residence, "Let's go find a shaver first!"
Shou still recognized Ti, even though Ti had retired for several years. But in the two years before Shou awakened his beast form, Ti was one of the most famous stone tool masters in the tribe, and very few people didn't know him.
Shou was once again shocked by the cub's "social network," how could it even connect with retired elderly clansmen?
However, Shou has a very good characteristic: he doesn't comment too much on other people's affairs. As long as it's not something harmful to the tribe or dangerous to the tribe members, he will accept it very calmly.
There is a kind of honesty and integrity that makes one remain calm and composed no matter what happens.
As Jiang Luoluo walked to the entrance of the cave, she heard a lively sound coming from inside.
Jiang Luoluo initially thought it was Li inside, but upon entering, she discovered a group of elderly tribespeople arguing incessantly.
The topic of the argument was the few transparent lenses in the very center.
Jiang Luoluo's expression was a little strange. She remembered that Tiao had said he planned to make the glasses and then show them to his group of brothers and friends to give them a surprise.
How come people are already drawn to these glasses even before they're finished?
Ti also looked troubled. He had indeed planned it that way before, but he hadn't anticipated what would happen to the elderly people in the surrounding area.
Their information network is exceptionally flexible.
After all, they don't usually need to hunt; at most, they need to do some studying, which doesn't stop them from being gossipy.
Jiang Luoluo had just come over, and although she didn't see many elderly clansmen, quite a few elderly clansmen saw her.
Soon after, these older clansmen found out what Jiang Luoluo had come to see Ti for, and even knew almost everything about the agreement the two had made.
Speaking of eyeglasses, while older people who are gradually losing their sight certainly need them more, those who are actually more enthusiastic about their eyes are... those older people who are engrossed in learning written knowledge.
The allure of knowledge and writing, wherever it may be, will attract a certain type of person, such as the group of elderly people gathered around the shaver's house, asking him to make them an eye as well.
They almost came to blows in their fight to be the first to wear the glasses.
Among them were many who were older and of higher generation than the shaman, and even some of the clan members of the same generation as the shaman, making it impossible for the shaman to rely on his seniority and forcing him to bow his head and "act like a grandson".
When he saw Jiang Luoluo coming over, he actually felt a sense of relief.
Immediately afterwards, he unceremoniously "throw" the trouble onto Jiang Luoluo.
They never say what they've thought of or what ideas they have; when asked, they always say that Young Luo said it or taught it to them.
Jiang Luoluo was instantly swallowed up by a group of elderly clansmen. Shou tried to save her, but his intimidation was even less than that of Ti, and he was completely ineffective and was driven away from Jiang Luoluo's side.
Jiang Luoluo wasn't harmed. The older members of the clan surrounded her, but they wouldn't lay a hand on a cub like her. It was just that there was a group of people talking over each other, and they could even start arguing... which gave her a huge headache.
But it must be said that a young mind is indeed useful.
Jiang Luoluo quickly grasped the key point: everyone was vying to be the "first" to get the glasses, and it wouldn't be fair to give them to anyone.
Then I won't give it to anyone!
“I have a friend…” Jiang Luoluo directly brought up Chi.
Then he began to list the reasons why Akane should be the first to receive the glasses.
First, Chi is young and healthy. The eyes are not yet finished, and no one knows whether they will be harmful to the eyes in the end—Jiang Luoluo is bluffing.
Therefore, it is beneficial for everyone to have Chilai serve as the first "test subject".
Before Jiang Luoluo could finish speaking, an older member of the clan spoke up to argue that they were not the kind of people who would send their children to face danger while they themselves enjoyed themselves.
So Jiang Luoluo came up with a second reason.
Secondly, Chi has had poor eyesight since childhood. Despite his great strength, he has never been able to see the world clearly. Since everyone thinks that the younger generation should enjoy the good life,
So shouldn't we let Aka experience and see the world clearly first, fulfilling Aka's wish since childhood?
After using this set of persuasive tactics, Jiang Luoluo successfully convinced the elderly clansmen, and both Shou and Ti showed expressions of admiration on their faces.
When Jiang Luoluo gave the first reason, they were met with a rebuttal. They thought there was no way out, but it turned out that the first reason was just the trigger!
Everyone has to say that's amazing!
In fact, Jiang Luoluo knew that she wasn't very eloquent. She was able to persuade these elderly clansmen because they were reasonable and cared for the young.
They can compete with their own peers for opportunities, yet they are willing to give the chance to younger children.
