CHAPTER 790: 【758】BEAST WORLD FARMING 68 (2 MORE UPDATES)_2
Lili shook her head, resigned to deal with Lang Sen’s settlement and urged them to start working early. There was no work at night, so they had to work until dinner time before it was over.
In the evening, she made corn paste and sweet potato porridge, steamed potatoes and sweet potatoes, without any stir-fried dishes, just pickles, and neither meat nor steamed buns.
These people were clearly dissatisfied with the food they were given, but seeing that Lang Sen was not in a good mood, they didn’t dare to ask. After their departure, there was still the task of cleaning up the mess left by their day’s work. Tiantian shook her head and sighed.
"This is not like hiring people to work; it’s more like inviting ancestors over. Even our own family members don’t pick and choose their food like this. Who spoiled them to act this way?"
The more Tiantian thought about it, the less she respected these people. She went straight to Yin Ye and said,
"Why can’t we just not invite people over to work? Is it really necessary to feed them? It’s completely disrupted my routine. I can’t go out, I can’t help Lili, and not to mention Lili now has much more to do. The quality of their work is mediocre. Didn’t we tell them to pick out the spoiled ones, not to leave them? Look at what they’ve picked; there’s still so much bad in here. No wonder they don’t have enough to eat; with this lazy attitude, I don’t even deign to deal with them!"
Yin Ye knew that Tiantian wanted everything to be perfect. If a task was to be done today, it was definitely not to be left until tomorrow. If after being told how to do something, it’s still done carelessly, he knew she would feel depressed and voice her dissatisfaction. However, he felt a need to speak up for those people.
"Tiantian, don’t get too anxious. Where have they ever done this kind of meticulous work before? In the outside world, the Beastmen just hunt, and the females gather fruits. This kind of task would surely be their first time. We need to be more patient. Once these people have been around our tribe a little longer, they’ll become familiar with all the steps and requirements. Just bear with it a little longer."
In fact, it shouldn’t just be their household. The situation in the other households of the tribe was probably similar. Apart from the single Beastmen who didn’t need to care for these people’s meals, every household that had settled down had to manage them. Who would willingly manage these people after already having a full plate with their own family matters?
To be blunt, from the beginning, this was a thankless job. People believe they are entitled to eat because they work, yet they never consider that without them, we would still be able to manage it all. It’s only out of pity that we’ve provided them with this job opportunity.
After giving them jobs, we still have to cook for them and even put up with their fussiness. We need to follow behind them and clean up after the work they’ve done. This is no working arrangement; it’s plainly about inviting ancestors in to venerate them.
Sure enough, when Yin Ye visited these people’s lodgings, he just happened to hear them expressing their dissatisfaction to the Clan Leader. They weren’t satisfied with their meals, the work was uninteresting, their hands were rubbed raw and blistering, and on top of that, they even had to watch their patrons’ faces...
The angrier Yin Ye became as he listened. Without heeding the Clan Leader’s attempts to stop him, he lifted the curtain and walked in, declaring bluntly,
"Those who don’t feel like working at our house tomorrow, don’t bother coming. If you do come, then work properly. Whatever work we give you, however we tell you to do it, that’s how it should be done. If it’s not done well, not only will we cut back on your food, but we’ll outright drive you away. Remember, it’s not us begging you to work; it’s out of pity for your lack of food. We don’t want to just hand out food for free, so we arranged work for you. If you’re going to work, then work well. If not, take a hike!"
After dropping this statement, Yin Ye left with an iron-blue face, and a few Beastmen followed him in to address these people.
"Our comfortable lives have been disrupted by you, and we haven’t even complained, yet you’re picky about this and that, saying our food isn’t good and bragging about who else’s food is better. If that’s the case, then don’t come here at all. Do you think we actually like having you around?"
"That’s right, when living under someone else’s roof, you ought to act like it. You still think you’re from Wanshou City? What about it? Isn’t it the same Wanshou City that the Beast Tide forced people to flee from like drowned rats, running here to beg for food? Exactly as our buddy just said, since you’re beggars, act the part. Don’t keep bitching; it’s disgusting to listen to!"
...
By the time the Clan Leader of the Nandi Clan went in, the Clan Leader of the Chaga Clan had already been scolded into not being able to lift his head.
"Big brother, we’re sorry for the trouble. Look at this mess. Hasn’t it made everyone angry? So sorry!"
"There’s no need to apologize to me. You’ve heard and seen the situation. This is how it stands now. If you continue to slack off like you did today and provoke our people’s discontent, then you’ll have to leave the Nandi Clan tomorrow. We do not welcome those who are lazy and gluttonous, nor should you bring up joining the clan. Our Nandi Clan isn’t desperate for people. Even if we were to accept new members, we’d want those who are clear about their abilities, have good judgment, and are diligent and honest. As for those with arrogance and incompetence, it’s best to leave early!"
The Chaga Clan Leader looked at his own Clan Leader and sighed heavily, disappointed.
"You all heard and saw for yourselves. Tomorrow will be the last chance. If you don’t work hard and continue priding yourselves on your status, thinking you’re better than others, then don’t blame me when I can’t help you anymore. Right now, I can barely protect myself, let alone you. From the moment we entered the Nandi Clan, my position as Clan Leader has been in name only. So tomorrow, if someone is to be chased away, do not come to me. Sorry, I cannot help with your lazy nature."
