After hesitating for a long time, Haitang finally went to find all the employees. Looking at the people below, Haitang said, "I have something I want to tell you today."

"Are you leaving?" someone asked, and panic filled the eyes of others. The younger people were crying.

“Listen to me,” Haitang said, looking at the people. “I’m not leaving, but giving you a chance, and giving us a chance too. In the future, even more orcs will come to steal our food. The wolf tribe and the black bear tribe won’t be among them, but even so, it’s still very dangerous.”

Every member of the Wolf Clan can go to the Tiger Clan to get food, because there are many people from the Wolf Clan there. The Wolf Clan can go there to collect wages, which can be directly exchanged for food, so they have no reason to rob them.

The black bear tribe is similar; they cooperate with the tiger tribe, and cooperation brings benefits. Under these circumstances, neither of them would act rashly. "The problem is that many small tribes will try to steal our food when they are extremely hungry, so we need to defend ourselves."

“Everyone needs to arm themselves and protect themselves, and so do you. Of course, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you; we can only choose to give up.” Upon hearing this, the hesitant look on the faces of the people instantly turned firm.

"We'll join, we'll join." Looking at Haitang and the others, Haitang nodded. From then on, every day some people trained, and the youngest and strongest men were selected.

There are also many spirited men among the races who are willing to join as self-defense forces. At such times, the orcs of the Tiger Clan will begin to train these people.

If asked to find the Tiger Clan again, Haitang would never choose to do so. The Tiger Clan was in a very dangerous situation at this time, with its forces too weak and it would be easy for them to be wiped out.

The Black Bear clan gave them a hundred people, but even a hundred people need food to feed them. Haitang didn't want to find any more people, so she could only let these people become self-reliant. Of course, this was also the last chance Haitang was giving these people.

Haitang looked down at the group of fifty-odd people training below. Even though they were few in number, they were still a force to be reckoned with, especially if someone came to ambush them at night.

Humans joined in, a hyena clan, but they would soon be undetected. After killing the hyenas, the orcs began washing their hands nearby. The humans' performance this time was not very good.

Of course, it wouldn't be accurate to say it was terrible; at least the finishing blow was done quite well. Haitang also got up and came out, looking at the orcs and humans not far away. Hearing what the expatriate said, she nodded.

“Okay, I understand. People from other tribes will be coming to take the coal in a few days,” Haitang said. This would also intimidate many orcs. Qiao Ming nodded upon hearing this.

The Tiger tribe came to collect the coal mine together with the Lion and Leopard tribes. Well... the Black Bear tribe has also been transported along, because it's too dangerous on the road now.

With the combined forces of the Tiger, Lion, and Leopard tribes, the other orcs dared not easily make a move.

It takes a lot of courage to hunt down these tribes and plunder their things. The Lion Tribe sent Lion King, the Leopard Tribe sent Leopard Cloud, and the Tiger Tribe sent Fire Spirit. The group talked about some things on the way.

"Your Tiger Clan tribe should still have a lot of food, right?" he asked, looking at the Fire Spirit in front of him. Upon hearing this, the Fire Spirit immediately sighed.

“No, we didn’t exchange money with the Tiger Tribe at the beginning, did we? Now they’re bringing it back to buy food. In a way, it’s all stored up with us. We’ve been paying back so many times that we’re already broke,” Fire Spirit said.

Huo Ling hadn't forgotten Huo Qiu's words. These people were cunning and shrewd, trying to trick people into revealing information or making jokes... Huo Ling wasn't stupid either. She knew very well that she couldn't easily tell others about the tribe's affairs.

When they saw Huo Ling, the other two smiled but didn't press the matter further, since both the Lion Clan and the Leopard Clan still had food.

"By the way, Fire Spirit, can we borrow your bows and arrows?" He was referring to giant bows and arrows, capable of killing ferocious beasts. "We're planning to hunt ferocious beasts; is your Tiger Clan tribe interested?"

The flesh of ferocious beasts is delicious and keeps longer than that of wild beasts. Upon hearing this, Fire Spirit looked at the two of them, hesitated, and then said, "I need to go back and tell the clan leader."

Huo Ling was somewhat tempted. After all, if she went, she could bring back some meat for the tribe. Although the Tiger Tribe didn't lack meat, they couldn't possibly complain about having too much meat now.

When Lion Sky and his group arrived at the coal mine, they immediately began loading cargo and left some food behind. Looking around, they wondered, "Have any orcs tried to rob us here?"

"Several waves came, but we dealt with them all," Haitang said. Upon hearing this, Huoling couldn't help but frown as he looked at the coal mine.

"Should we shut it down now? Although the coal mine is in great need, we can't keep digging like this." Too many people are coming to rob it, and it will be very dangerous.

"I know," Haitang said upon hearing this. "If something really happens, we'll leave together." Haitang said, and Huoling nodded upon hearing this.

Huo Ling went into the coal mine and looked at the workers with hostility, directly warning them not to mess around, or he would not be polite.
