Chapter 457: Expansion is necessary, but it cannot be blindly expanded



What kind of tribe is this?

How could they allow the leader of another tribe to join in with the entire tribe?

The Donkey Tribe leader was still shocked. He thought he knew enough about this wealthy and powerful tribe, but now, he felt unfamiliar with it again.

After thinking about it for a while, the donkey tribe leader felt less worried.

Because this wealthy and powerful tribe is still kind and has not become evil because of its power.

As long as it is not an evil tribe, it will not be particularly scary.

"#¥%%?"

After walking for a while, the leader of the Donkey Tribe suddenly stopped and asked the people behind him.

He was asking them if they were willing to join that wealthy and powerful tribe.

Some people from the Green Tribe said they were unwilling without hesitation, while others hesitated for a while before saying they were unwilling.

Others, after hesitating for a while, said yes.

Because they remembered all the enviable things they had seen in that tribe.

Today, many people from the original Green Tribe happily told them about the attractive aspects of life in the Green Bird Tribe, which made them even more excited.

When they heard the leader ask this, they thought that the leader also wanted to learn from the Green Tribe and bring people to join the wealthy tribe, so they happily answered that they were willing.

The already dark face of the donkey tribe leader became even darker.

He originally thought that the people in the tribe, who lived a prosperous life under his leadership, would not yearn for that wealthy and powerful tribe, but who could have thought that the result would be like this.

He immediately put down the salt shaker on his shoulder, walked over to those who said yes, and those who said no after hesitating, and kicked each of them on the buttocks a few times.

After all the people said they didn't want to do it, he picked up the salt jar again and walked forward angrily.

Now their tribe's life is getting better and better. Although it is not as good as that powerful and wealthy tribe, it is still better than the average tribe. How could he give up his tribe and follow the example of the leader of the Green Tribe and join that rich and powerful tribe?

Thinking of this, the leader of the Donkey Tribe shook his head and smiled...

There were already a lot of tender green mustard greens in the basket in Han Cheng's hand.

He squatted down, shoveled the soil with his right hand holding a small white bone shovel, and with his left hand, he pulled up a mustard greens whose roots had been broken by the shovel and put it in the basket.

The mustard greens that have not yet bloomed in spring are the most delicious. After washing and chopping, mix them with fried golden eggs, add seasonings and stir. It is best used to make dumplings.

Unlike ordinary dumplings with fillings that easily release water, dumplings with mustard greens filling not only do not release water after being cooked, but also become very firm and chewy when eaten.

It’s a pity that the Qingque tribe now has mustard greens and eggs, but no flour.

Millet can be ground into powder, but it is not sticky enough, and after adding water, it cannot be made into a block at all, which makes Han Cheng extremely depressed.

In this era, a bowl of dumplings has become a luxury. Han Cheng has been looking forward to it for several years, but now he has not yet had the chance to eat it.

You can only boil these mustard greens in boiling water, then add some salt and vinegar and eat them cold.

Thinking about these things with regret in his heart, he straightened up after digging mustard greens for a while and looked in the direction where the donkey tribe left.

With the joining of the Green Tribe, the labor shortage of the Green Bird Tribe was greatly alleviated.

There is no need to think about attacking the Donkey Tribe for now.

Moreover, even if the people of the Donkey Tribe took the initiative to ask to join the Green Bird Tribe at this time, Han Cheng would not agree.

Firstly, the Green Bird Tribe had just absorbed a Green Tribe and had not yet completely digested it.

Secondly, the Donkey Tribe is different from ordinary tribes. It is now equivalent to the outward trading team of the Green Bird Tribe.

Through it, the Qingque tribe indirectly interacted with other surrounding tribes.

The third and most important point is the food problem that the Qingque tribe has.

The expansion of a tribe is not as simple as plundering the population. It requires consideration of many aspects, the most important of which is whether the tribe can produce enough food to feed the newly absorbed population.

After absorbing the Green Tribe last winter, the population that the Green Bird Tribe can currently support has basically reached saturation.

If you want to expand again, you need to make use of the existing population, continue to increase the reclamation of arable land, and grow more food.

Only when there is surplus food can they have the spare capacity to absorb other tribes and use it to strengthen their own tribe.

It is not impossible to absorb them by force, but the current living standards of the Qingque tribe will definitely be severely lowered.

Once the living standards are seriously lowered, it will easily lead to a series of problems.

Although this saying is a bit too absolute, it does make sense to a certain extent.

When a person is so poor that it is difficult for him to even survive normally, he has no choice but to grit his teeth and do things that he normally hates...

If Han Cheng was barbaric enough, he could treat the people he recruited as non-human beings, give them very little means of survival, and make them do a lot of heavy work.

If they die of exhaustion, they will just dig a hole and bury them. When there is a lack of food in winter, they will just kill them and eat their meat, not caring about their life or death. Naturally, they can expand without any care.

But the problem is that he is not a pure primitive man. As an ordinary person in the future, he cannot do such a thing that regards human life as worthless.

If he really did that, his current leisurely mood would immediately disappear, and he would probably never be happy again.

Life was hard enough in the later generations. For the sake of survival, I endured all kinds of humiliation and felt unspeakable sadness. Now that I am here, I naturally cannot allow myself to live in such a wronged way.

On the premise of living a comfortable life, Han Cheng has always been working hard to expand the tribe.

Otherwise, when the tribe develops, he becomes depressed and his heart and body are exhausted to the extreme, which is really uncomfortable...

The cold mustard greens with chopped green onions and vinegar tasted extremely refreshing, and Han Cheng enjoyed it very much.

Most of the other people in the Qingque tribe still prefer meat.

Gu ate very quickly. In a short while, he had finished several bowls of rice.

He placed the bowl into a ceramic basin filled with clean water, wiped his mouth, and continued digging.

Han Cheng asked him to rest for a while but he refused to go again...

Looking at Gu's back as he left, Han Cheng nodded secretly. This leader of the original green tribe was really capable of...
