From a distance, there is a gray dot about two meters above the chief's head, which looks very out of place on the gray-white wall.

Sheng Xia was somewhat puzzled.

What is that? I don't think it was mentioned at the last meeting...

She hasn't been here for a long time; she was probably added later.

Without much thought, Shengxia walked hand in hand with Wolf King to the chieftain's side, her almond-shaped eyes curving into a playful smile.

"Chief, are we not late?"

The chief, beaming, pointed enthusiastically to the only chair nearby—a chair with a backrest covered in animal hide.

"You've come at the perfect time! Xiaxia, please sit here."

He deliberately made sure that the beast was the last to notify Xiaxia.

He didn't want Xia Xia to be waiting for Bie Shou here.

They don't deserve it.

As he approached and sat down, Shengxia noticed that the brown dot behind the chief was actually a wooden stick stuck in the wall, its tip pointing upwards and firmly embedded in the wall.

I don't know how they did it, it looks very sturdy.

After only a moment of confusion, Shengxia quickly turned her gaze to the beastmen sitting around her.

She raised her almond-shaped eyes and glanced at the many males who had been summoned. There were thirty-five of them, not counting herself and the Wolf King, and they were all familiar beastmen.

"So many orcs." She turned her head, leaned close to the Wolf King, tugged at his hand, and whispered with a curious expression.

Having been to the conference room so many times, this was the first time she had seen such a large male...

Most of them possessed fire-based abilities, so it seems they were the main orcs making up the caravan that was about to set off.

The wolf king held her hand, patted it gently to comfort her, and leaned closer to whisper, "Yes, many orcs."

In the height of summer, she smiled sweetly with her almond-shaped eyes and sat up straight.

Lion Mountain watched the summer heat settle in and gave a wink to the male attendant beside him.

The orc nodded, took out a large animal hide scroll, placed it on the table in front of the chieftain, and then retreated behind the chieftain.

"Look here, everyone!"

Chief Lion Mountain, brimming with pride, picked up the animal hide scroll, stood up, unfolded the hide, carefully shook it, and hung it on the wooden stick behind him.

The hanging position was perfectly visible to all the orcs present.

Summer blinked her bright almond-shaped eyes and curiously turned to look. There were many abstract lines drawn on it, with various small animals at the corners.

It was ancient and mysterious, and she couldn't understand it.

"This is a map, drawn by the snake-wielding shaman last night. It includes the routes and the surrounding tribes. Those that are known to the area are marked, and those that are unknown can be added after you've traveled the route..."

The chief explained to everyone with great enthusiasm.

Shengxia's eyes lit up as she suddenly realized that it was a map.

The animals around the corner are probably substitutes for the names of tribes. The big tiger closest to us probably refers to the Tiger Tribe.

"Then Maoning will lead the team, Wolf King will negotiate, and the Great Shaman will accompany you to various tribes to sell your goods. Everyone, please protect them well," the chief said solemnly.

"Good!" the warriors shouted in unison.

After the tasks were assigned and the details were discussed, the chief told everyone to go back and prepare, and to set off in a few days.

Several orcs who were trusted by the chieftain stayed behind, as the chieftain had some things to tell them privately.

They haven't been in the Mayan continent for very long, and they're not very clear about many of the rules here, unlike before when they only needed to hunt.

Now that they have so many good things in their hands, they not only have to guard against orcs from other tribes, but also adapt to the rules here.

Seeing that everyone had almost left, Shengxia quietly tugged at Wolf King and mouthed, "Let's go~"

Go back and tidy up the space.

"Xiaxia and Wolf King, please stay as well," the chieftain said hastily when he saw Shengxia trying to get up.

When it comes to intelligence, no one can compare to Xiaxia, the divine messenger.

After the meeting, Lion Mountain sat wearily in a chair, dismissed the other orcs, and left only Cat Ning, Summer, and Wolf King.

Lion Mountain smiled kindly and said, "Later, Cat Ning and I will go to collect the items. I will buy all the surplus items that everyone wants to sell in the name of the tribe, and then take them out for unified sale."

This will save a lot of trouble.

Let's try it out this time. If it works, the tribe can train a dedicated sales team later.

Everyone's lives will get better and better!

In the future, there will be more and more orcs in the tribe, and the Summer Forest alone will not be enough to support everyone. Planting has developed steadily, but it is still not enough.

Perhaps selling things could be another way...

Mao Ning glanced at Sheng Xia, and seeing that she didn't seem inclined to speak, he hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Let's not bring anything too complicated this time. Just bring in regular food, animal hides, and other hard currency. We can talk about other things next time. What do you think, Doctor Xia?"

In the middle of summer, she stared at Mao Ning's bald head with a bit of boredom. His smooth, shiny forehead was even reflecting light, which was kind of cute.

Being suddenly called upon, she quickly realized what was happening and gave a friendly smile.

"I think it's a good idea. Let's try it with less stuff first, and if it works, we'll go again."

With so many items, it's hard to keep track of everything. It's easy to get flustered the first time when you don't know anything. You can bring more items once you're familiar with the process.

Lion Mountain's eyes gleamed, and he nodded and smiled, "That's right, Xiaxia makes sense, let's do as you say."

"By the way, the Snake-Handed Witch Doctor will also be going this time. His space is used to store supplies. If there's not enough room, Xiaxia, please help him out. The tribe will pay him with shell coins."

The chief's cheeks flushed slightly, and he rubbed his hands together a little shyly: "Xiaxia, is this okay?"

He had no choice; originally he only sold mushrooms, but after adding other things, there wasn't enough space in the snake enclosure.

Luckily, Xiaxia went with me...

The tribe is getting better, which is something Shengxia is very happy to see. She nodded without hesitation and smiled playfully.

"Okay, please pay with coins first."

Orcs are social animals; no matter how powerful she and her partner are, they cannot live apart from the group. Her well-being depends on the well-being of the tribe.

She hadn't considered living alone; the chances of encountering stray animals were too high. A strong partner would surely ensure a safe encounter, but she disliked unexpected events.

She likes to give up and prefers a stable life.

Living alone is clearly not suitable for me.

Besides, things that benefit the tribe won't have a negative impact on her, so she's happy to help, but she still wants to receive payment.

She's poor and needs to earn coins to support her baby.

Seeing that Shengxia agreed, Shishan's face turned even redder with excitement. He immediately pulled out a leather bundle from his bosom and carefully flattened it.

He opened it and pushed it in front of Shengxia: "Thank you, Xiaxia! This is using the coins from your space. Xingmu will also receive some after the mushrooms are sold."

At the time, it was agreed that the purchase would be made, but as the scale of the fungus grew and it could bring long-term benefits to the tribe, the amount of coins given to the Star Shepherd seemed a bit too little.

He wasn't an ungrateful chieftain; Xingmu's silence didn't mean he could pretend not to know.

You need to use the coins you earn to support Xingmu!
