Looking at Jia who kept squeezing things out of the bag near his mouth, the red fox orc had a complicated expression.
The Hamster Tribe used to be just an insignificant little tribe that was affiliated with the Obsidian Tribe. It didn't even qualify to be called a tribe. It was so weak that the tribes on the other side of the God Tribe didn't even have the interest to capture them as slaves.
The Obsidian Tribe never considered them as a fighting tribe. They just gave them a piece of land where they could live in peace. Even that land was not that good, but this small tribe survived the incident intact.
They also found You's children early and took on important responsibilities in this place called Qingshan City, and what they had to do seemed to be tailor-made for their tribe.
Jia didn't know what the red fox beastman was thinking. After he took out the things from his cheek pouch and sorted them, he said to the red fox beastman, "While Xuan was here, he also counted the number of sub-beasts you brought here, as well as the number of orcs under ten years old. He asked me to bring these things here for the sub-beasts and the orcs."
At this point, Jia's expression was somewhat awkward, but he still managed to finish his words. "He also said... um... the beastmen are strong and have beast forms, and the temperature difference on the grassland is quite large... um... don't let the sub-beasts and cubs get sick."
Xuan's original words were certainly not as gentle as Jia's. He said, "Those guys are tough and strong. They've come all this way and are still alive and kicking. They have the energy to fight. Don't worry about them. They won't starve or freeze to death anyway. Just take care of the sub-beasts and the cubs."
"..." Hearing Jia's strange tone, the red fox orc fell silent. How could he not hear that this was Jia's beautified statement?
He grinned. This little brat is still very vengeful. His personality is exactly the same as Yun Yao's.
After a long while, the red fox beastman spoke, "I see. I'll distribute these things to the sub-beasts and cubs later." He looked at Jia, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Anything else? Does he have any plans?"
Jia raised her paw and touched her head, whispering, "He didn't say anything else."
He heard the red fox orc sigh clearly and said quickly, "Just live here peacefully for now. The south is much safer than the north. There's no need to live in fear. I see that you orcs aren't in good shape, and your sub-beasts are exhausted. Take good care of yourself and get your bodies back to health first."
"Yeah." The red fox orc responded softly.
Jia looked at the displeased red fox orc and continued, "The tribe has been very busy lately. Last year, many tribes moved near us, and suddenly there were a lot more people. You know, when there are suddenly more people, there are a lot of things to deal with, especially since they've only been here a little over a year, and everyone needs to get used to each other."
"Also, we're going to build Sea City this year, so we're busy repairing the road from Qingshan City to the seashore to facilitate transportation. Plus, school has also started, and many people from our tribe are attending school there. Anyway, Xuan needs to keep an eye on a lot of things. After all, the entire Qingshan City chief will be handed over to Xuan in the future, so he must be aware of everything going on in Qingshan City."
"Anyway, you guys just stay here and relax. It will be fine once you're done with this busy period. It's just unfortunate that Wu has been busy with Haicheng affairs. If only Wu could have come with Xuan to meet you earlier... Wu would definitely be able to arrange everything for you, and maybe we wouldn't have to fight so much."
"..." The red fox beastman once again cursed in his heart those guys who only knew how to fight.
After beating up those guys in his mind, he looked at Jia and said, "I understand. I will help you deal with them."
Jia nodded and said nothing more.
In Qingshan City, Meng Yuqing, who had originally planned to go to the beach the next day, stayed one more day because Xuan came back, and went to the beach without stopping.
After Meng Yuqing left, Xuan rested for a few days and then went to the place where the stones were mined to find Xia.
Xia put down the tools in his hand, dusted off the dust on his body, and took Xuan aside.
People passing by looked at the injuries on Xuan's body with surprised expressions.
But Xia didn't say anything, so naturally no one else would rush over to ask.
The two of them stopped when they were out of earshot. Xia looked Xuan up and down, frowning and asking, "So many injuries?"
Xuan rubbed his forehead and said, "Their strength is actually about the same as our Qingshan City orcs. The strongest ones are only a little bit weaker than them, but they are very fierce and experienced in fighting, especially when it comes to fighting orcs. They are also very belligerent. In a life-and-death fight, it's hard to say who will win or lose. In order to quickly intimidate them, I fight them in groups of two or three."
He paused and continued, "If we don't defeat them, it will be difficult to manage them. Tsk, Ji Ke really gave me a big problem."
Xia chuckled softly, then frowned slightly, "Just keep it in mind. We can't rashly interfere with the management of those people."
Xuan nodded in response, "I know, but there's a red fox orc inside who seems to be smarter than the others. I asked Jia to bring some supplies for the sub-beasts and cubs, and told him to only interact with the red fox orcs for now. I'll leave the others alone for now. I'll bring them over to fight once I'm done with this."
A hint of smile appeared in his eyes. "During this period of time fighting with them, Lie and the others have become visibly stronger. We can bring more people with us when the time comes."
Hearing this, Xia also smiled and said, "After you deal with them, take them all to work. Yuqing said that the grassland is also suitable for planting and grazing. Just consider it as repayment for the supplies I provided to their sub-beasts and cubs during this period."
With so many people coming, it's impossible not to be moved, but it's also impossible for them to happily accept people into Qingshan City just because of Ji's face.
It would be stupid to have such an idea. Even if they said it out loud, these people were still unfamiliar tribes to them.
And it is a tribe with strong military power.
Xuan was taken away by Xia on the day he was born and had never had any interaction with these people.
The only two possible connections are Ji and Xuan, who is the posthumous son of the leader of the Obsidian tribe, and those people are the remaining old members of the Obsidian tribe.
But just based on this superficial relationship, can the two sides become family? That's impossible.
They have nothing to do with the people of Qingshan City.
Jia handed the task of delivering supplies to Haicheng to his deputy, while he was transferred by Xuan to deliver supplies to the sub-beasts and cubs brought by the old members of the Obsidian Tribe.
