For several days in a row, Shen Miao secretly observed the tribe.

Unfortunately, she couldn't find anyone with a figure similar to Green Pearl. She suspected that she might be seeing things, so she gradually put the matter aside and resumed her life of hunting and selling things.

This time, she used a weapon coated with medicine, and as a result, she managed to hit a black bear in one fell swoop. It took her a lot of effort to drag the black bear down the mountain.

The black bear was too big for the family to finish eating in a short time, so Shen Miao kept the bear paws and some of the bear meat, and sold the rest in the tribe, where the price was cheaper than at the animal farm.

Many orcs came to buy bear meat. Everyone wanted a good deal, and the meat was fresh, so there was a constant stream of customers.

Several children helped Shen Miao sell the goods; one collected the items, another handed out the meat, and two others chatted with the tribal orcs.

The little one does things in a very proper and orderly manner, and everyone loves him dearly.

In particular, some of the older female animals would come up and pat the cubs' heads, then praise them with a "good boy/girl".

"This meat is no good! How could you cut it like this? It's all bone! What am I supposed to do with bones?" a loud, gruff voice yelled.

It was a male beast. He had been standing there for a long time, picking at its thorns, but no matter how Shen Miao cut it, he was not satisfied.

Shen Miao didn't want to sell it to him anymore, and said coldly, "This won't do, that won't do, don't buy it."

The male beast complained, "Why are you doing this? We're from the same tribe, why are you excluding me? I didn't say anything wrong, you already cut too many bones off me."

A beastman nearby advised Shen Miao to just cut off a piece for him, saying it wasn't worth arguing with such a beastman.

Shen Miao cut off a piece, but the male beast still looked disgusted, grabbing the piece of meat and asking, "How many beast crystals will this cost?"

"Eight white beast crystals."

White beast crystals are the lowest grade of beast crystals, and they are found in the bodies of almost all animals. Shen Miao didn't want to make money off the tribal beastmen, so she set the price very low.

Even so, the male beast still had something to say. He looked surprised and said, "This costs eight beast crystals? The beast meat sold in the beast farm only costs five beast crystals at most."

"Then you can go to the animal farm to buy it."

"Oh, Shen Miao, don't be like this. Why are you kicking me out so easily? I'm just doing this to support your business. It's not easy for a female beast like you to support a family. I actually admire you. Give me some more, and I'll give you six beast crystals." The male beast flattered Shen Miao, his eyes darting around.

Shen Miao laughed in exasperation, narrowing her eyes, "Six beast crystals? I'll give you a little more?"

"Yes, yes, that piece, add it all to my collection." The male beast gestured wildly.

Shen Miao swung his stone knife, nearly slashing the male beast's hand. The beast howled in fright, still shaken, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Didn't you want a little more? I'll cut some out and add it for you." Shen Miao gritted her teeth.

The male beast muttered, "Why are you being so fierce? A female beast should be gentle and kind. Who is like you? I'm the only one who still has some pity for you. If it were any other male beast, they would have already started a fight with you."

Shen Miao snatched the meat from the male beast's hand and scolded, "Get out of here, I'm not selling it anymore."

"What are you doing? These are all mine now. Give them to me, and I'll give you beast crystals, okay?" The male beast came over to snatch them, taking the opportunity to pat Chen Miao several times.

Shen Miao immediately bristled.

Even Qingchen had never touched him like this before. This male beast was courting death!

Unable to bear it any longer, Shen Miao punched the male beast, sending it flying. The crowd gasped in surprise as they watched helplessly as the beast flew away.

The male beast was shocked to be beaten by a female beast, especially in front of so many beastmen. Feeling extremely embarrassed, he pretended to have fallen and hurt himself, lying on the ground groaning and refusing to get up.

The beastmen looked at each other in dismay. Could she have really broken her? How could Shen Miao be so violent? The male beastmen, in particular, were looking at Shen Miao with hostility.

Da Bao and several other children stood in front of Shen Miao, surrounding her like guardians.

Shen Miao's heart softened, and she patted the children's heads to indicate that everything was alright.

The beastmen helped the male beast up, who clutched his leg and pleaded pitifully, "My leg is broken! Shen Miao, you're so cruel! Even if you weren't going to sell me bear meat, you shouldn't have hurt me like that!"

Everyone could see that blood was seeping from his hand, which was covering his leg.

Some of the female beasts spoke up for Shen Miao, saying, "It's not that serious. Shen Miao didn't use much force. We all saw it. Are you sure you're not mistaken about your injury?"

"What's wrong? Would I joke about my own body?" the male beast shouted excitedly.

The male beast supporting him chimed in, "He's injured like this, and you're still talking about him like that? Isn't that a bit immoral? Do you want to be talked about like that when you get beaten up in the future?"

The female beasts who had spoken up for Shen Miao immediately fell silent, only looking at her with concern.

Shen Miao gave them a reassuring smile, showing she wasn't worried.

She knew exactly how much force she had used. Although she was a little angry at the time, she didn't go so far as to break the male beast's leg, unless the male beast was made of paper.

"What do you want?" Shen Miao asked coldly.

"You must compensate me!" the male beast roared.

Shen Miao raised an eyebrow. So this was a case of someone trying to scam her. She never expected that even after transmigrating into a book, she would still be the target of such a scam.

Thinking of this, and recalling what the male beast had just done, Shen Miao couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing. She asked in a good-natured manner, "How much compensation do you want from me?"

“Five hundred white beast crystals,” the male beast blurted out.

Shen Miao said "Oh": "You don't need many, why don't you want a thousand?"

The male beast said smugly, "You can give me a thousand if you want. I reckon this leg of mine is never going to heal. If you have any conscience, give me a thousand."

They even took advantage of the situation.

He remained silent, deeply moved.

Da Bao said angrily, "Our family doesn't give out that many beast crystals. You started this trouble first. You're a bad beastman."

Erbao also said, "Mother, don't give him the beast crystal, he's too bad."

The little ones lined up in a row, hands on their hips, looking both cute and fierce.

The male beast cursed, "You little brats, what do you know? Your mother injured me, and she won't compensate me. The clan chief is going to drag her to the execution platform so that you'll never have a mother again."

The children were terrified. The fourth child clung tightly to Chen Miao's leg and cried out, "No way! I don't want Mommy to go to the execution platform!"

"Then compensate me!" the male beast chuckled.

The children glared at him angrily, but they were still young and worried that Shen Miao would be scratched on the torture platform. They didn't know what to do.

Shen Miao's face darkened. It didn't matter if the male beast provoked her, but she couldn't tolerate the cub provoking her.

"Is that so? You're going to arrest me and take me to the execution platform. Then I should at least check your injuries."

After saying this, she walked towards the male beast.
