Bai Jing said, "Since my little female doesn't want to pursue this matter, then let it go."
The Elephant Clan Chief laughed heartily, "Bai Jing, not only are you incredibly powerful, but your partner is also remarkably broad-minded!"
The chieftain gestured for them to proceed: "We have prepared powdered fruit and edible plants. Please choose whatever you wish to take!"
Yu Wanwan felt that they were really sorry for this matter. Not only was their attitude very good, but the things they prepared were also very good. The pink fruits were round and uniform in size, and the other plants were also very fresh and clean.
What Takuyama gave us last time was on a completely different level.
Bai Jing took out a rattan bag and carefully put these things into it.
They came here intending to take more things back with them, so they specially made a rattan bag the size of a sack, filled with animal hides, salt crystals, and other items for exchange.
The elephant chieftain was very interested in the rattan bag. He asked, "I really liked the rattan bag that Tuoshan got from you last time. Can we exchange rattan bags?"
"sure."
Anyway, they brought a lot of bags this time, so changing a few won't be a problem.
At this time, the orc society did not have any containers to hold things. They placed their belongings on the ground, and those who were more particular would use a leaf as a cushion.
Carnivorous animals are fine; they can just put their prey in their mouths and bring it back. But herbivorous orcs can't do that.
Their food consists mostly of scattered vegetables and fruits, making it impossible to bring back large quantities at once.
Now, when they bring back grain after the harvest, they use stone slabs or animal hides.
The stone slabs are heavy; small ones can't carry much, and large ones are hard to find, requiring multiple orcs to carry them back.
Animal hides are soft and lightweight, so they lay them on the ground and piled them with food. However, they didn't know how to pack them, so when they brought things back, it took four orcs to work together, each pulling one horn.
If even one orc loses his grip, everything will fall to the ground, which is very troublesome.
The elephant tribe suffers greatly from the task of moving things.
Seeing that Bai Jing's rattan bag was lightweight and had a very large capacity, even allowing one person to carry many rattan bags at the same time, he started to have ideas.
They moved some wooden stakes over to use as chairs, and sat on them to start discussing business.
Yu Wanwan's wooden stake was a bit shorter than Bai Jing's, but she was also short and her legs weren't as long as Bai Jing's.
Seeing all the other beastmen standing firmly on their feet while her own legs dangled in mid-air, Yu Wanwan felt deeply hurt.
"That's right, we have a lot of pink fruit and hope to exchange it for rattan bags on a long-term basis," the clan chief said.
The little female's main food lately has been pink fruit, and as long as it's not cut open, it can be stored for a long time. Bai Jing thinks this is a pretty good deal.
"But besides the pink fruit, we need other plants."
The Elephant Clan Chief nodded: "Of course, we have plenty of plants here. Come with me and we'll see how many we can exchange."
The Elephant Clan Chief ordered someone to take Bai Jing inside to select plants. Yu Wanwan held a sweet little fruit, eating it while waiting for Bai Jing.
I never expected to actually make a deal here. It seems I need to do more research in the future!
"Little female, is the fruit delicious?"
The Elephant Clan Chief appeared next to Yu Wanwan at some point, his face beaming with smiles.
Yu Wanwan nodded: "Thank you for your kindness, this fruit is delicious."
"You're welcome. I'll give you some more later, so you can take it home and enjoy it slowly." His voice was deep and gentle, and he seemed like an elder who loved children.
The two chatted for a while longer, and then the Elephant Chieftain brought up the rattan bag again: "This bag is really practical; the process of making it must have been extremely difficult!"
Yu Wanwan smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that difficult, it's just tiring to make them up one by one."
"Oh?" The chieftain looked surprised. "How did you know? Did you make this bag?"
Yu Wanwan nodded shyly.
"You are such a smart and beautiful little female!"
After being praised again, Yu Wanwan became even more embarrassed.
The praise she received in the few days she spent in the Beast World was more than she had in the previous twenty years combined.
Just then, orcs from the Elephant Tribe walked by carrying food.
The four of them each held onto a piece of animal hide, moving slowly.
Unfortunately, one orc didn't see where he was going and slipped, causing all the food on his animal hide to fall to the ground.
In order not to affect the progress of the rest, everyone hurriedly and frantically picked up the items, and some people even scolded the orc who had fallen.
The wrestling orc knew the fault lay entirely with him, so he gritted his teeth and remained silent, causing a chaotic scene.
Seeing this, the Elephant Clan Chief said with some melancholy, "It's a pity that there are no orcs in the tribe with the power of ancestral reversion, otherwise the situation wouldn't be like this."
The chieftain's kindness lowered Yu Wanwan's guard. Seeing the old man's worried face, she quickly comforted him, "You don't need to worry too much. The tribe is already very strong."
"No, their strength is far from enough. Reversion to ancestral form is the key for orcs to improve their strength. I wonder if any orcs in the Tiger Clan have the power of reversion to ancestral form?"
A glint of light flashed in the eyes of the Elephant Clan Chief.
Yu Wanwan wanted to mention Bai Jing, but considering that Bai Jing was unwilling to reveal his ancestral reversion, she said, "There are no beastmen who have reverted to their ancestral forms in the White Tiger Tribe. Everyone is the same."
The clan chief nodded, his smile growing even more amiable, his eyes seemingly filled with affection for the younger generation.
When Bai Jing came out, the clan leader had already left. Yu Wanwan stood alone at the door, holding a large leaf in her hand, which was full of plump fruits.
