Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 537: Chapter 527: The Great Chief 45

Yan Shuangshuang had clearly stated that food given to pregnant women cannot be stored privately nor given to others, yet a pregnant woman blatantly disobeyed Yan Shuangshuang’s orders by storing the fish given to her.

Although she might habitually not finish her food to avoid hunger during food shortages, the more important reason is that she hasn’t taken Yan Shuangshuang’s words to heart.

The people of this world have rigid minds. When they truly obey a person, they can give their life without hesitation, much like when Yan Shuangshuang first discovered unfamiliar plants and said they were edible, everyone in the Power Tribe ate them without any doubt, not worrying that Yan Shuangshuang might have judged wrongly.

Everyone in this world knows that every newly discovered edible plant is tested through countless lives, so previously, the people of the Power Tribe truly risked their lives in trusting Yan Shuangshuang, and they seriously executed all of Yan Shuangshuang’s decisions, regardless of their size.

If this decision by the pregnant woman were made by a modern person, it wouldn’t be a big deal, as modern people have flexible and convoluted thinking, trusting you doesn’t mean unconditional obedience.

However, in the mindset of people from this era, this is not a trivial matter. This woman’s actions signify her indifference or even disdain for Yan Shuangshuang’s leadership position, which is why she didn’t take Yan Shuangshuang’s words seriously.

What troubles Yan Shuangshuang more is that the pregnant woman’s actions were not secretive; everyone around her knew, yet none of the Lanshan Tribe people questioned the pregnant woman’s decision, meaning their attitude towards Yan Shuangshuang is the same as the pregnant woman’s.

Yan Shuangshuang is not someone with a strong need for control requiring everyone to obey her like an Emperor, she simply wants to lead everyone to better days, which means everyone must listen to her, without questioning her decisions, only then can everyone be united for better development.

This requires Yan Shuangshuang to have enough status in their minds, otherwise, if there’s deceitful compliance when executing the plans she envisions, it’s all futile.

Yan Shuangshuang’s solution to this is simple: punish. All privileges of the pregnant woman are canceled so she knows that Yan Shuangshuang’s words count, compliance brings benefits, non-compliance brings punishment; this was Yan Shuangshuang giving a wake-up call to all Lanshan people.

Simultaneously, Yan Shuangshuang began challenging Lanshan warriors one by one, from weak to strong, while becoming familiar with her own power, she fought on, continuously increasing her Combat Power.

From the lowest warriors to one of the strongest warriors in Lanshan, Yan Shuangshuang’s uncle Jian and the true strongest, Leader Mang Mountain, all were defeated by Yan Shuangshuang during this time.

This was Yan Shuangshuang giving Lanshan a second wake-up call, and there was no sweet reward, although Yan Shuangshuang had given Lanshan nothing less than sweetness before. Unfortunately, these people were grateful, but their gratitude was directed towards the Power Tribe.

Even previously when Yan Shuangshuang mentioned adding fish for all pregnant women, Lanshan people also subconsciously believed it was the intention of Power Tribe Leader Ben or Witch Doctor Yu.

For the Lanshan people, they don’t have the same perception as Power Tribe people, even if all Power Tribe people say that the tribe’s food is thanks to Yan Shuangshuang’s wisdom, in Lanshan people’s hearts, they still feel this is due to the Power Tribe’s collective efforts.

Though indeed the Power Tribe people had contributed, the greatest credit undeniably was Yan Shuangshuang’s, without her, even if the Power Tribe people were capable, they wouldn’t find a target they could aim for, which is why Power Tribe people trust and appreciate Yan Shuangshuang so much.

Yan Shuangshuang realized that in this world, bribing people’s hearts with sweet treats is useless, nothing compares to directly using violence to subdue them. In their straightforward and crude understanding, they don’t grasp the concept of eating sweet rewards and then being obedient and grateful.

If you have power, beating them daily makes them trust you and respect you fearfully, but if you don’t have power, even if you save them from death countless times with your mind, they have no feelings and still look down on you.

This rigid thinking among Power Tribe people makes Yan Shuangshuang feel incredibly warm-hearted because Power Tribe people trust her, but among Lanshan people, Yan Shuangshuang feels incredibly frustrated, seeing this group of fools makes her want to hit someone.

If you want to hit, then hit. Carrot and stick policies are entirely unnecessary for these primitive minds, just use forceful suppression, beat them into submission, no need for any comforting sweet rewards.

Moreover, Yan Shuangshuang found something good, as she continued to beat Lanshan people, her Combat Power is now rising sharply, she has adapted well to using Warrior Power and to the sudden enhancement in her physical qualities, and now can easily defeat both Mang Mountain and Ben.

After Yan Shuangshuang disciplined the Lanshan people into submissiveness, the cold season finally ended. In the latter half of this cold season, Lanshan people had good days, whereas their cold season previously only ensured they wouldn’t starve or freeze to death.

But after coming to the Power Tribe, they finally understood, the cold season could still be enjoyable. Nutritionally balanced food allowed them to eat well every day, with smokeless charcoal burning throughout to keep their bodies warm.

The caves brightened by Bright Light Seeds kept their spirits uplifted, eating well and not feeling cold, the caves were spacious and bright, the only thing they needed to do was find ways to train themselves in the cave, increase their strength, and after the cold season, hunt more prey.

Such days seemed like living in a dream, making Lanshan people deeply cherish it, and over the period of being beaten countless times by Yan Shuangshuang, they began to trust and even worship Yan Shuangshuang, although this worship is solely worship of strength, different from Power Tribe’s, yet it’s sufficient to make Yan Shuangshuang happy.

Although the cold season has passed, the heat of the two suns is insufficient, the outside weather is no longer ice at every drop, but still in winter, there are not many active prey, but at least some traces of prey can be found.

Thanks to the generally gigantic size of the prey in this world, just finding one prey is enough for a medium to small tribe to survive for a long time, so as long as the cold season is over, basically no one will starve.

Power Tribe though is not short on food today; there are still plenty of White Stone Fruits and Sweet Potatoes in stock, they have hardly depleted, but it’s the dried wild fruits that have been consumed greatly, mainly used by Yan Shuangshuang to soak in water for everyone to drink and replenish vitamins.
