Chapter 336 The Young Generation

While Mainus was talking, he suddenly realized something and stopped talking. He looked at the two of them and said, "Don't just eat. You two should also tell me your story."

Cassius grabbed a handful of beans, put it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Wait until I finish eating this. These beans are well cooked!"

"I remember the teacher asked my mother to make it once. It looked like this and tasted about the same." Nasuya picked up a bean and looked at it carefully.

"That's right, I was the one who made it. You were all just thinking about eating at the time, but I kept it in mind. When I was helping Aunt Aknis clean up the kitchen, I begged her hard to get this kind of beans. practice.

After I started working, I saved a few months' salary and went to the market to exchange wheat for some lard and broad beans. Then I ground some flour, mixed it with water, kneaded it into a paste, and then applied it on the washed broad beans. Put it on and fry it in boiling lard..."

Mainas said with some pride: "Look, how much effort I have put in to make such a good thing and come here to entertain you, aren't you two touched!"

Cassius grabbed a few more beans and stuffed them into his mouth, and said calmly: "I think you, Mainus, must have made these fried broad beans for yourself, but there are some left. By chance, we are here, so... Bring it out to entertain us.”

"Hehe, based on my understanding of Mainus, this should be the case." Nasuya said with a sweet smile.

"You two guys really let down my good intentions!" Mainus looked angry, but in fact they were right.

After a while of joking, Mainas stopped smiling and said seriously: "To be serious, did anything important happen at home while I was away?"

The "home" that Mainus refers to is the tribe's main house where Chief Maximus lives and where they once lived and worked.

"The teacher's wife, Mrs. Flores Lucia, is pregnant. Is this an important thing?" Cassius said.

"Of course, but everyone should know about this by now. I heard that on the night the news came out, many people in the Snotia and Westeni villages lit bonfires and cheered in their yards... It's really I'm happy for the teacher!" Mainus said sincerely.

Cassius and Nasuya also nodded.

"I heard -" Mainas suddenly lowered his voice and asked mysteriously: "I heard that the teacher's other wife, Genian Davra, was beaten by the teacher's wife. What happened?"

"Mainas, when you left the main house, what did the housekeeper tell you not to spread the leader's family affairs to the outside world!" Cassius asked seriously: "Tell me where you learned about this. ?”

"I didn't spread any rumors, it was just a quiet chat among the few of us..." Faced with Cassius's sharp gaze, Mainas hesitated for a long time before saying: "...he is the head of our department. Officer Pigaris, he came over the day before yesterday and asked me to be well prepared to receive the relocation of the tribe. During the chat, he mentioned it casually. It was probably Mrs. Gnianandafula who went to the Ardei tribe with Pigaris. It’s time to complain to him.”

"real?"

"I can't lie to you!"

Cassius stopped talking.

Mainus began to complain: "Cassius, it's so boring to be with you. You are trying my brother as a criminal. I have been busy all day and I am still thinking of ways to entertain you! Come on, I will leave you in the future. Stay away!"

"Mainas, do you know Doreen?" Nasuya quickly came out to smooth things over.

"Of course I know, that woman who doesn't like to study and only likes to fight!" Menas had a toothache when he mentioned Doreen. He was beaten by her many times during military training: "She kept shouting that she wanted to go to the army. , the teacher did not agree, and asked her to help you manage the files. I heard that she was still restless after going to manage the files, and she told the teacher that she wanted to go to the Ministry of War whenever she had the chance, right? "

Nasuya smiled slightly: "A few days ago, the teacher agreed that Doreen would go to the army."

"Really?!" Mainus was surprised: "Dolene is a girl. She is far inferior to men in terms of strength and speed. Once on the battlefield, she will become a liability!"

"Doreen doesn't need to fight the enemy, she just needs to be able to cock the crossbow relatively easily."

"You mean the teacher asked her to join the crossbow corps?"

"Yes." Nasuya still had a smile on her face, but her words seemed to encourage her sisters: "Although the crossbow unit is a newly-established team of the tribe, in the two battles against the Pannoni coalition, it They all played an important role. In the past, although Doreen was not good at literacy and arithmetic, she was very good at military training and was calm-minded in fighting. At that time, the instructor always said regretfully, 'If she was not a woman, she would definitely be. A good soldier'.

Now that she has joined the crossbow team, she can finally take advantage of her. I believe she will make a lot of contributions to the tribe on the battlefield in the future! "

"I also wish Doreen everything goes well in the crossbow unit!" Mainus joked: "At least she is in a better situation than Akguo. Akguo also boasted to us before that he would kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds earlier than us. He received a tribal commendation and promotion, but now he is still responsible for running errands and delivering orders in the Ministry of War, haha. "

"There is another good news." Cassius said again: "This time after the center of the tribe has moved to Ofidilia, the leader is going to give us students who have been scattered to various departments and started to officially work for the tribe. It will also be designated as a formal ethnic minority and land distribution will begin... This proposal has been passed by the political hall and I believe it will be implemented soon. "

"Really?!" Mainas was surprised: "But according to tribal laws, we must become adults before we can become official tribesmen and receive land. (The Nyx tribe stipulates that women are 16 years old and men are 18 years old. The young attendants like Keguo and Cassius are basically 16 or 17 years old now)!”

"I heard from the leader that the current situation is special. The tribe has now occupied the territory of Segostika. It urgently needs many people who can write and do calculations to manage the newly added land and population for the tribe, so it has to recruit a lot of people from the school. Students have become members of various departments. Since they, like other officials, work hard for the tribe, they should be considered adults. The tribe should recognize their status as formal ethnic minorities and give them corresponding salaries. It’s fair to allocate land.”

"Oh, we still take advantage of our younger brothers!" Mainas joked. As the first batch of students to come out of school to work, they sometimes like to call the children who later enter the school "younger brothers and younger sisters."

Although Mainas was excited, he was also a little worried: "This is indeed a great thing! It's just that... 50 acres of land is not so easy for us to cultivate, especially since I have to take care of it every day, so I can't do it well." Take care of the fields. If the harvest is not good and the taxes are not paid, you may be punished by the tribe! "

Cassius comforted: "You don't have to worry about this. There are foreign auxiliary people to help you farm, but you have to apply to the Ministry of Agriculture first. If you just give up and let the foreign auxiliary people help you manage the fields, then Fifty to sixty percent of the harvest from the fields must be handed over to the tribe.”

"Yes, the tribe set up foreign auxiliary people just to work for us. I almost forgot about it!" Mainas touched his head, laughed a few times, and then said indifferently: "I'm just one "Human, 30 to 40% of the harvest from 50 acres of land is enough (excluding 10% of tax), and the tribe will pay monthly wages, so I can buy a chicken every month."

"You just know how to eat." Nasuya cursed in a low voice.

Mainas chuckled and asked, "Nasuya, will the tribe also allocate land to you?"

"Mainas, haven't you studied the tribal laws carefully? Although I am a woman, I am also a member of the old people, and now I also work for the tribe like my mother and Aunt Karina. According to Logically speaking, the tribe should allocate land to me." Nasuya talked confidently: "But according to the law, the land of the tribe is actually divided according to households. My mother and I are considered one household. She does not plan to get married. There will be no younger siblings, so the land she owns will be inherited by me in the future. Of course, the tribe will not allocate any more land to me. But if I get a higher title than my mother in the future, the tribe will still increase the food for my family. ”

Mainus immediately answered: "You want your level to surpass Aunt Akonis, haha, this is completely impossible!"

"Shut up, you nuisance!" Nasuya was so angry that he threw a fried bean at Mainas.

Minus opened his mouth to catch it, chewed it a few times, and said with an exaggerated smile: "Well, it tastes good, thank you!"

Then he looked at Cassius and asked, "Where will our fields be divided?"

Cassius replied: "Of course it is near Ofidilia. Even our houses will be divided into Ofidilia Village or nearby villages."

"That's really good!"

"It's good for us, but Mainas, you don't know how long you will stay here. Even if you have a home, you won't be able to go back." Nasuya took the opportunity to slander him.

"It's nothing." Mainas said disapprovingly: "We in the Ministry of Commerce just don't care about family and often have to deal with the surrounding tribes and forces. In the future, our Knicks territory will become larger and larger. Maybe I will go to Rome as an envoy!"

"Just dream." Nasuya rolled her eyes at him.

"The teacher once told us that he wanted to build our tribe as powerful as Rome, so that the people no longer have to worry about being bullied by other forces!..." Cassius encouraged him in a deep voice: "Let's all do our jobs well. , try to help the teacher fulfill his promise, and when the time comes, he will really let Mainus go to Rome as an envoy in great glory! "
