Chapter 193 Lobbying the Black Wolf Tribe
Sang Bai said with pride: "Yaocheng is the name of our city. A city is a large settlement composed of many tribes. Now, in Yaocheng, we have the Yao Tribe, the South Wind Tribe, the Cat Tribe, the Dog Tribe, the Pangolin Tribe, the Chameleon Tribe, and many other tribes."
At this point, he glanced around the cave: "Orcs and females, equivalent to several Black Wolf tribes."
Lang Chen sat up straighter, with a look of doubt on his face: "Are you as big as the Qingqing Tribe and the Beifeng Tribe?"
Sang Bai smiled and said, "Our orcs and females have surpassed the Qingqing Tribe and the Beifeng Tribe. Oh, by the way, the Qingqing Tribe has established a long-term trading relationship with our Yaocheng. The Beifeng Tribe moved to the opposite side of the Yaocheng River. Now it is no longer called the Beifeng Tribe, but Beifeng City. They have a cooperative relationship with us and are very friendly."
Lang Chen didn't believe it: "How is this possible? I haven't been away from home for just one winter season, and there can't be such a big change outside. Isn't the North Wind Tribe over there in the Great Forest?"
Sang Bai was surprised: "Chief Langchen, you didn't know that the great forest in the north has been burned by the skyfire? In order to survive, the tribes in the great forest have migrated to the central grassland area."
Lang Chen stood up: "Is this true?"
Sang Bai waved his hand towards Lang Chen: "Chief Lang Chen, don't get excited."
Lang Chen sat down again.
Sang Bai continued, "There are still many things you don't know. Let me introduce what the deputy minister and deputy city lord mean. There are many tribes in our Yaocheng. The tribal leaders are just the managers of the residences in our Yaocheng. We have more important departments and positions than tribal leaders. First of all, Yaocheng has a city lord and a deputy city lord. Our city lord is a powerful black winged tiger, and the deputy city lord is the deputy city lord Yinfeng in front of you. Under the city lord and deputy city lord, there are many departments, and each department has a minister and a deputy minister. I am one of the departments, the deputy minister of the trading department."
Lang Chen was shocked: "You are so complicated?"
Sang Bai: "There's no other way. There are too many beastmen and females. It's going to be complicated."
At this time, a middle-aged orc sitting below Lang Chen asked, "Since you are so powerful, why did you come to such a remote place like ours?"
Sang Bai and Yin Feng looked at the middle-aged orc who was speaking.
Lang Chen introduced: "This is Elder Langli."
Sang Bai nodded: "Good question. We came here to trade. Not only your tribe, we have traded with many tribes along the way. We will continue to go until all the tribes in the north know that we have a trading center in Yaocheng, which is open for trading every day."
Lang Chen was shocked: "You have opened a trading center? And you trade every day, how can there be so many things to trade? In the north, among the herbivorous tribes, only the Qingqing tribe holds a large-scale trade fair before every winter season. Among the carnivorous tribes, only the Beifeng tribe holds a large-scale trade fair before every winter season."
Sang Bai's face was full of smiles: "Chief Langchen, you really should come to our Yaocheng to have a look. If you don't go far away, you won't know what the outside world will be like. By then, everyone will have a good life, but your Black Wolf Tribe will still be so poor and backward."
Lang Chen's face was filled with anger. "Deputy Minister Sang Bai, how can you say that? You can see that our Wolf Tribe has big and good caves to live in. Our caves are very solid. The rains this rainy season are heavy enough, so there will be no problem with our caves. We have endless prey to eat, and the females can wear good animal skins. How many tribes out there can live as well as our Black Wolf Tribe? We don't have to worry about housing, food, or clothing. We also have a lot of salt and stone reserves, so we don't need to trade with other tribes at all."
Yinfeng, who had been silent the whole time, said calmly, "In the past, your Black Wolf Tribe was indeed a very good tribe, but now it is indeed not that good."
Lang Chen stared at Yin Feng: "What does Deputy City Lord Yin Feng mean?"
Yinfeng smiled faintly: "What I mean is, if you don't change, after another winter, many weak herbivorous tribes will be able to live better than you."
"How is this possible?" Several voices sounded around at the same time.
Yinfeng still smiled faintly: "What did you eat?"
Lang Chen: "The females eat barbecue, and there are abundant wild fruits. The orcs can eat barbecue if they want to, and eat raw meat if they want to. Even in the cold season, we can survive smoothly with the food we have stored."
Yinfeng shook his head: "Raw meat, grilled meat, wild fruits, these foods are too common, just to keep you from being hungry. Now, we are not only solving the problem of hunger, but also paying attention to whether the food is delicious. We have many varieties of food, including grilled fish, stewed fish, fried fish, grilled meat, stewed meat, fried meat, radish bone soup, taro bone soup, meat soup..."
After a pause, Yinfeng continued, "We have a lot of food to eat. In addition to food, our females wear beautiful clothes. Unlike you females who only wear a piece of animal skin, our females wear tops and skirts, tops and pants, and dresses. They can wear any color they want. Our females wear shoes on their feet, so they don't worry about rubbing their feet when they walk, unlike you females who walk barefoot."
The orcs and females from the Black Wolf Tribe, including Lang Chen, were stunned.
Sang Bai grinned.
Yinfeng: "You are still living in caves, which is too primitive. We don't live in caves for a long time. We live in wooden houses. Our wooden houses are built in the prairie. We don't need to dig caves by the mountains. The houses in Yaocheng are in pieces. Every family has their own house. One orc has one room. There is no need for many orcs to live in one cave. Our houses are windproof. Even in the cold season, we will not be frozen by the wind and snow. It is very comfortable."
The orcs and females of the Black Wolf Tribe looked at each other in bewilderment. What kind of life is this?
Lang Chen shouted, "Stop, Deputy City Lord Yinfeng, after saying so much, how can you prove that you are indeed living better than us?"
Yinfeng glanced around and asked, "Where are the two black pig orcs you captured earlier?"
Lang Chen: "Is that an orc from your Yaocheng? I thought it was a stray beast."
Yinfeng nodded: "That's right."
Lang Chen: "Oh, they are in the next cave. I was planning to pull them out after dinner to have a fight with my people. Lang Shan, go and bring those two black pig orcs here."
Sang Bai: "Chief Langchen, I heard that you often bully your neighbor, the Zebra Tribe?"
Lang Chen shook his head: "How can that be called bullying? I just saw that they were too weak and was training them. You don't know that every winter season, if there are hungry beasts coming out to look for food, we still protect them."
Sang Bai: "No matter how much you train a zebra, it can never be trained to be a wolf. What do you say when you capture the females and cubs of the zebra tribe?"
Lang Chen said confidently: "Did the zebra beastmen tell you? Hey, I've already said that we are protecting their females and cubs. Life in our Black Wolf Tribe is better than in the Zebra Tribe. How could I really bully the Zebra Tribe? One of my female companions, Ma Hua, is the female cub of the leader of the Zebra Tribe. Ma Hua, tell me, have I bullied the Zebra Tribe?"
Everyone's eyes fell on the female wearing white animal skin and holding a female cub beside Lang Chen. Ma Hua hugged the female cub tightly in her arms a little nervously: "The Black Wolf Tribe is doing this for the good of the Zebra Tribe, and they are not bullying the Zebra Tribe."
Lang Chen laughed: "You heard it, right? We in the Black Wolf Tribe never bullied the Zebra Tribe. Many of our Black Wolf orcs have partners who are females from the Zebra Tribe. How could we bear to bully them?"
Yinfeng: "This is a matter between your Black Wolf Tribe and Zebra Tribe, we don't want to interfere. However, in our Yaocheng, strong beasts and weak beasts are friendly, bullying weak beasts will be punished, and some smart weak beasts are more popular than strong beasts."
Sang Bai: "That's right. If it were in our Yaocheng, no strong beast would be bored enough to bully the weak beast."
Lang Chen touched his nose.
At this time, Zhu Liu and Zhu Qin were brought into the big cave.
"Deputy City Lord Yinfeng, Deputy Minister Sang Bai, you finally came to save us. Woo woo..." Zhu Liu stepped forward aggrievedly.
Sang Bai checked the two beasts and found that they were not injured. The dissatisfaction in his eyes faded a little.
Lang Chen: "It's all a misunderstanding. We thought it was a stray animal that was peeping."
Zhu Tan: "We have already said that we are orcs from Yaocheng, but you ignored us."
Lang Chen: "We had never heard of Yaocheng before, and we thought it was a beast from some unknown corner."
Yinfeng stood up and said, "We are here to take our orcs back, Chief Langchen. We will stay in the mountains behind the Zebra Tribe grassland for half a sunrise. If you want to know more about Yaocheng, please come to us early next sunrise. There is not much time left before the cold season. We are going to speed up and rush to the next tribe."
Lang Chen also stood up: "As an apology, we can treat you to barbecue. We orcs are good at barbecue."
Yinfeng shook his head: "That's not necessary, we've already eaten."
Lang Chen escorted them out of the cave: "Deputy City Lord Yinfeng, I will bring the orcs to find you at the next sunrise."
Sang Bai turned around and reminded: "You will definitely like what we brought. Bring more animal skins to trade with us, but don't bring animal meat, as it is not convenient for us to carry it on the road."
Watching the two wild boars, a tiger, a lion and a run across the wooden bridge to the other side of the canyon, a wolf beastman said, "Chief, are we just going to let them go like this?"
Lang Chen glared at the orc and said, "That's a tribe more powerful than the North Wind Tribe. What do you want?"
"Brother, I want to go trade with you guys next sunrise." A young female wearing black animal skin ran over, her eyes shining with excitement.
"Okay." Lang Chen lovingly touched the beautiful female who was a head shorter than him.
