The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 500 - 374: Ordering Bluestones

As soon as she reached the reception door, she heard a noisy uproar inside, bustling like a vegetable market with all sorts of chatter.

When Luna Sutton stepped inside, she saw many unfamiliar faces in the reception hall. These were all elderly Beastmen, and without needing to guess, she knew they were elders sent by various tribes to settle the number of blue bricks.

Lyle Sutton was seated at the head position, striving to maintain order and handle the various questions raised by the elders from different tribes, his face fixed with a stiff, helpless smile.

Seeing her enter, for some reason, Luna Sutton vaguely sensed excitement on his face, genuine excitement, the kind that made his eyes shine.

With a swift stride, he rushed to Luna Sutton’s side, lowered his voice to whisper in her ear, "Daughter, thank goodness you’re here. You handle these old geezers. There are so many questions, like how many bricks are needed to build a house, what numbers should be set. How would I know? Isn’t this making things difficult for me? They keep asking and it’s driving me crazy."

Looking at her father’s expression of relief, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter, "Dad, you’re the leader, and yet you’re troubled by such trivial matters?"

Lyle Sutton chuckled awkwardly, rubbing his nose, "These have always been handled by you and your men; how would I know about this?"

Luna Sutton gave her father a sidelong glance but said nothing.

She turned and walked to the center of the hall. As soon as the elders from various tribes saw her appearance, they fell silent, looking at her with respectful gazes.

Stories about Luna Sutton were known to all present, whether they had met her or not.

In everyone’s eyes, Luna Sutton was seen as the envoy and even spokesperson of The Beast God, so naturally, they dared not show disrespect.

Her gaze slowly swept across the seated elders, a faint smile on her lips, "Elders, you have traveled a long way, thank you for your efforts. I heard everyone wants to finalize the quantity of blue bricks for building houses next spring?"

"Yes, yes, Miss Sutton."

The elder from The Leopard Tribe, a slim old Beastman, stepped forward, smiling with a somewhat bewildered expression. "It’s about these blue bricks... we don’t know how many to set, nor do we understand this. The leader asked me to inquire with you to determine the number of blue bricks required to ensure we have enough, so we can finalize the specific amount for custom orders."

Other elders chimed in, talking over each other:

"Yes, yes, Miss Sutton, the blue brick houses are great, but how many blocks are needed after all?"

"Our tribe has many people, and we want to build a large meeting hall. How many bricks will that take?"

"And the ones for the elders’ residences..."

Questions poured in, and Lyle Sutton stood beside, listening with a throbbing headache, thankful his daughter arrived.

Luna Sutton raised her hand slightly to indicate silence among the elders, "Elders, please be patient. The number of blue bricks needed for building houses depends on the size of the house you want to build, how many rooms, whether it’s a single-story or multi-story, and for dwellings, reception halls, banquet halls, construction varies greatly. You also have to consider the foundation and if you want to pave the ground with blue bricks. These all factor in."

With these words, everyone exchanged puzzled looks.

They had never contemplated these aspects.

To them, it was simply building a house without such considerations.

The Wolf Tribe was meticulous, no wonder they devised so many peculiar yet practical things.

"How many bricks are needed for a house like yours in The Wolf Tribe?"

The elder from The Raging Lion Tribe reacted first, unable to resist asking.

She glanced at that elder, explaining calmly, "The blue brick houses in our tribe vary in size, tailored to each home’s needs. Some have many Beast Husbands—five, six, seven, eight is the norm, sometimes more, plus children, front yard, backyard, kitchen; these require larger houses. Of course, some have fewer Beast Husbands, fewer children, so the need for large houses isn’t there. As for single females and Beastmen, we initially house them together, then they build their own homes once they have partners."

Then she directed her gaze at the gathered elders, "How about this: tally up the population of your tribes, like how many families and people per family. You don’t have to be precise, just estimate. It’s alright if the house becomes overcrowded; you can expand to add rooms later, or you might base it on the typical six-seven Beast Husbands per female, which would require around 18,000 to 20,000 blue bricks for such a house."

As soon as she finished, the entire reception hall erupted into noise.
