35. Chapter 35

Day 35:

When I got up, I saw Sophia trying an experiment in the middle of the town. The experiment is you can't go through the exact middle of town, without paying her 5 cents. Of course, no one gave her anything. Meanwhile, the council looked at the journal for the final time. Here's what it said:

May 5, 1885:

If you reading this, you are been living in Bonanza City for 35 days, and by now I bet you know your town. But do you know what exists beyond Bonanza?
Back in 1885, we spent much time working and we never explored beyond our borders, don't make the same mistake we did, explore!

Attached to this was a map and it's past that mine and then some!

I was thinking, "Well, we are forced to hike to the location and stay the whole night and the following day over there!"

Michael said, "Well, the showdown is the next day and we don't know what the rewards are and what the challenge is?"

I made the announcement, "well, the journal told us to leave all of you behind for the next 2 ½ days and we would be back for the next town hall meeting, if we get back successfully! Which means that there will be no council members, so it's up to you to run this place and do the showdown the next day. Good luck, you will need it!"

So, the council started the hike but before we can do it, a producer shows up and we would be told occasional updates through him. Meanwhile, when we finally got there, we saw teepees, which means one thing, the Native Americans are our guests, and we have to live with them!

When we arrived, they greeted us with respect and we saw their leader.

We started with our questions to him,

I asked, What's the best advice for the younger people that they may not listen to your leadership?

Obviously, I asked this is because of the fear that some of the younger kids may leave and not last the remaining 5 days.

He responded "Always offer support, no matter what, they are our future."

Meanwhile, we got our first update from the producer after this question. The producer said, that the "town is working great, the dishes were finally cleaned for once, all of the stores were cleaned, obviously they want to leave this place on a good note."

A couple hours later, the chief under the night sky decided to tell us some stories in front of a campfire.

He said "in life it's so easy to be mean, selfish but it's hard to live well, it's the rougher road." Michael said, in other words, "we should push our limits."

Then I came up with a novel idea, "I know that the gold star was supposed to be for the best people only, but I noticed that we need to give it to someone with a lot of potential but is also one of the younger pioneers." Michael said, "I actually think that this is a great idea, we have been neglecting the younger ones for a long time now, so maybe this will raise morale among these people?"
