Under such circumstances, Ah Wu and others set off with Huo Ling and a group of orcs, about fifty people in total. When they arrived at the trade fair, Shi Hu and the others took Ah Wu to buy slaves.

Even with the rebellion of the race, many slaves were still being sold. Each one looked thin, weak, confused, and timid.

One bolt of cloth could be exchanged for ten slaves, which was very cheap. Under such circumstances, the Tiger Tribe used cloth to exchange for slaves and directly asked for nearly two hundred people.

Two hundred slaves sat directly in a carriage not far away, surrounded by wooden frames, and were not allowed to take a bath.

Instead, they directly gave the slaves some prepared flatbread and water to drink and eat. The slaves were chosen by Ah Wu and Da Shan, and there weren't many problems among them.

Of course, more importantly, the Tiger Tribe set off on the same day they decided to buy slaves, which would cause some trouble even if someone wanted to make arrangements and schemes.

Moreover, the group didn't go to the nearest slave trading place, but instead took a long detour to a much more distant location. After purchasing the slaves, the group sat down nearby and started eating.

"More than two hundred slaves, after some training, can be put back into the factory," said the tiger-beastman not far away, though there was a downside to it.

That is, these slaves had no clothes. In order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, the slaves stripped naked and stood not far apart in the freezing cold. Some of them froze to death, while others huddled together for warmth.

Even now, those people are all leaning against each other, and only when they are by each other's side can they feel warmth. They didn't bring many clothes, and they couldn't give everyone bedding.

At this time, everyone was shivering from the cold. After everyone had eaten, Shi Hu and the others prepared to set off in their carriages. The cries of eagles could be heard in the sky; they were the beastmen of the tribe.

Used for escorting and protecting the orcs of the Tiger Clan from being ambushed along the way, they did encounter some problems along the way. Some of the people fell ill, and a shaman immediately went up to take their pulse.

"It's probably typhoid fever. A little medicine will do the trick." Hearing this, Shi Hu nodded. He didn't want any unexpected events to happen this time.

Because if something unexpected happens, it will be very troublesome for me, so what I need to do is to take these people back.

On Haitang's side, inside the tribe, while heading towards the commercial area, she noticed Huoqiu and the others looking serious and walked over directly, asking, "What happened?"

"The Flower Tiger Clan has come to ask for help." Huo Qiu said, looking at Haitang. "They said they want to borrow ironware from us, and if we don't, they'll attack our coal mine. Many people at the coal mine have been surrounded."

There were fewer than a few hundred orcs at the coal mine. Their own tribe left behind ten orcs, the fox tribe had returned with only about a hundred orcs, and the wolf tribe also had some orcs. At this time, everyone felt heavy-hearted.

"Where are the Flower Tiger Clan?" Haitang couldn't help but frown. The Flower Tiger Clan had tried to join the Tiger Clan last time, but the Tiger Clan hadn't agreed.

"The discussion just now didn't go very smoothly. It seems they're determined to oppose our tribe." Huo Qiu's gaze turned hostile as the Hua Hu tribe went too far.

"Pretty much. I think the Flower Tiger clan is thinking that we're far from their tribe. If we go out to attack now, we'll be in trouble ourselves, leaving the tribe vulnerable and suffering heavy losses. If we don't act, the losses will be severe. But they're underestimating us. Send a message to Wolf Fang and ask if they want the coal mine anymore," Haitang said, looking into the distance.

Upon hearing this, Huo Qiu nodded and sent someone to find the Wolf Clan. When Dongfang Chen looked at Haitang, he reached out and grabbed her hand. When Haitang felt her hand being grabbed, she lowered her head and looked at Dongfang Chen's bewildered and worried expression.

"Mom... has something happened?" Mom's face looked bad, just like when she spoke to that wolf-beastman uncle last time. She had a similar expression now, but she was even angrier.

"It's alright, take your younger brother and sister home and be careful..." Haitang said to Dongfang Chen. Dongfang Chen nodded, took Dongfang Meng from Haitang's hands, and went home with his younger sister and brother in his arms.

After the Wolf Clan members arrived, Haitang and the others explained the situation directly, saying, "We will send a message back immediately." The income from the coal mine brought many benefits to the Wolf Clan, and if things really escalated, the Wolf Clan would suffer a great loss.

Although the Huahu tribe didn't know what that thing was and hadn't had much contact with it, they figured the coal mine must be very useful since the Tiger tribe had sent people to guard it, so they simply seized it.

The purpose was none other than to force Haitang and the others to spit out the iron artifact. The Huahu tribe had been forced to make concessions by other tribes over the years, and in a few more years, their tribe might be attacked by those people.

However, if they had iron tools, the Flower Tiger tribe would become even stronger, and any tribes that came to cause trouble would only become prey for the Flower Tiger tribe. Therefore, they absolutely had to obtain these iron tools.

Haitang nodded. The Huahu clan gave Haitang and the others something to consider today. The wolf clan also arrived riding on a canopy eagle beastman. As soon as Langya got off, he heard about those things. "What? This damned bastard wants to die... What do you plan to do?"
