An Unexpected Accident

Standing in front of the starting block, the Qatar player Clark was twisting his joints slightly.

Clark had been born in a village in Kenya. For generations, his family had been peasants living off of planting cassava. Cassava is a common crop in the tropical area, which doesn't need fine management, and has a high output and good drought resistance. Every year after the sowing period, the cassava could bear very large fruits, even without watering and fertilization.

Clark's family had a lot of land, so his family could keep themselves from starving by planting cassava. The eldest generation of Clark's family led quite a leisurely life every day. Two pieces of cassava would be enough for a day's rations. After eating, they would hang out in the village, or just sleep in the shade of a tree.
