“Shaman, what’s wrong?” Yu Ying asked in confusion.

“Nothing’s wrong, it’s just as I expected.” Su Bai smiled faintly.

He knew in his heart that the other party would not follow Ci to the Earth Tiger Tribe, and indeed it was exactly as he had thought.

“How can the Shaman be so certain? If Lu Zi values people of her old Tribe more, she would have left.” Yu Ying blinked her pink eyes.

Yu Ying added more tea to the empty teacup and looked at the Shaman with a face full of curiosity.

“What do you think of life in our Tribe?” Su Bai asked in return.

“Life in our Tribe is very good, better than it has ever been.” Yu Ying said without hesitation.

Yu Ying was somewhat puzzled, not knowing why the Shaman suddenly asked these questions, which seemed different from her earlier question.

“Then what do you think of other Tribes compared to our Tribe?” Su Bai continued asking.

He quite enjoyed asking such questions. Rather than explaining himself, which he usually needed to do, he gradually unravelled things from the other person’s thoughts.

“I don’t know how many Tribes there are, but among the Tribes I know of, not one has a better life than ours.” Yu Ying said with certainty.

“That means the Earth Tiger Tribe definitely isn’t as good as our Flame Dragon Tribe, right?” Su Bai asked with a smile.

“Yes, when Ah Liv from the Green Vine Tribe came, she also roughly described the conditions of other Tribes, and indeed none were as good as our Tribe.” Yu Ying nodded without hesitation.

“Since the Earth Tiger Tribe isn’t as good as our Flame Dragon Tribe, then why would Lu Zi want to leave?” Su Bai smiled as he picked up a cup of tea and continued. “She’s leading many of her people, and wouldn’t easily go to live a worse life.”

This was exactly the point he wanted to make. When faced with advantages and disadvantages, a person would always choose the advantages. This was Human nature. They would seek benefit and avoid harm!

“I understand now. In our Tribe, we don’t need to worry about food or clothing. As long as there’s work, there’s food, and the places we live in are not bad either.” Yu Ying suddenly understood completely and continued. “So even though Lu Zi really likes her friend Ci, for the sake of her people, she cannot leave.”

“That’s it. They have no reason to leave, especially since they all have stable work and food now.” Su Bai said softly.

“I’m relieved then. At first I was worried that our music teacher was going to leave…” Yu Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

“Now we are on this topic, how are the children doing with their studies?” Su Bai asked.

He had not taught them for some time now, having handed it all over to Yu Ying. He only needed to be responsible for teaching Sha Lan and Yan Hua, while the children would have others teach them.

“Same as before, their learning progress is neither fast nor slow, but they’re all doing quite well.” Yu Ying reported.

“Just let them learn slowly. After all, you can’t rush things at the beginning.” Su Bai took a light sip of tea.

“I think the same, but they’re already learning very well. At least they’re not like before when they understood nothing.” Yu Ying nodded.

Yu Ying was actually talking about herself too. Before, she knew nothing and only followed how women of the Tribe would only do handicrafts and cook. She had never imagined the life she had now. Who would have known she would become a Shaman Priestess?

“Also, how are you getting on with finding talented people in the Tribe, which I asked you to look into?” Su Bai asked.

To make the Tribe develop quickly, they needed some capable people to help.

One person often could not accomplish great things. No matter how brilliant one’s mind might be, they still needed more people to help get things done.

“I’m still collecting information. I’m sure there’ll be news soon.” Yu Ying immediately replied.

“En, we need to keep and properly cultivate anyone with talent. They can be of great help to the Tribe.” Su Bai said calmly.

“Yes.” Yu Ying’s soft voice responded.

Su Bai put down his teacup, stretched himself, and said. “There’s nothing else today. Let me teach you to make something interesting.”

Yu Ying immediately perked up, her pink fox tail swishing continuously as she asked. “Shaman, what interesting thing are we making?”

Yu Ying absolutely loved these moments. Whether it was making food or useful items, anything the Shaman made was always amazing.

“Didn’t I give you a packet of daffodil seeds before? After all these days, they must have flowered by now, right?” Su Bai asked.

“Yes, when I went to check the farmland this morning, the daffodils in the flower field had already bloomed.” Yu Ying nodded repeatedly.

Some time ago, Su Bai had obtained a packet of daffodil seeds from the System and had Yu Ying plant them.

At the Tribe’s entrance, besides the farmland, there was also a separate plot of land designated as a flower field.

The area was not very large. It was about the size of a basketball court, mainly used for growing roses, lilies, and various exotic flowers and plants gathered from the forest.

“Have someone pick some and bring them back. Today I’ll make you beautiful.” Su Bai smiled mysteriously.

When he had obtained the daffodil seeds, what came to mind was not a particular object. Rather, it was scenes from ancient dramas back on Earth.

“Daffodil can make me beautiful?” Yu Ying was somewhat confused and asked: “Shaman, do you mean wearing them in my hair?”

Many beauty-loving women in the Tribe did this, often picking fresh flowers to wear in their hair. Or they would pin them at their waist and such, making themselves look more alluring.

Of course, this was only during courtship. Most of the time, they would not wear fresh flowers.

Beautiful as they were, they were very inconvenient when working, as they had to constantly worry about the flowers in their hair falling off.

Over time, fewer people wore fresh flowers, only dressing up carefully during the annual Pink Flower Festival.

“Not in your hair. That would be strange.” Su Bai shook his head.

The key point was that flowers wilted easily after being picked, so wearing them in one’s hair would be too wasteful.

Yu Ying pursed her cherry-like lips and asked in confusion. “Shaman, are we making perfume then?”

Yu Ying was rather puzzled. All she could think of was making perfume.

“Of course not. Daffodil doesn’t have much fragrance for perfume.” Su Bai continued being mysterious.

“Okay, I’ll go and have someone pick them first.” Yu Ying’s curiosity was completely aroused.
