How do the narrator's actions set the plot in
motion?
By speaking directly to the chief,
the narrator violates the trust of the
villagers, which leads the villagers
to plot against him.
The narrator's flashy appearance
and blatant displays of wealth
cause the villagers to despise him;
they look for ways to force him off
their land.
By sectioning off his pigs and
declaring that the villagers must
repay any damage done to them,
the narrator creates tension.
Paying cash to the villagers for any
damage his pigs may kule
committed triggers a greedy
response in the villagers, this
causes them to trick him again and
again
