"Mao, why don't you capture these people as well, bring them back to our tribe, and make them our slaves, just like you do with people outside your tribe."

On the way back, after walking for a while, Xiong Eryou, who was holding the flag, looked at Mao and asked.

He has been struggling with this matter for a long time, and still hasn't figured out why the Chamber of Commerce made such a decision.

In his opinion, all tribes that offended the Qingque tribe should be captured and sent to the Qingque tribe to become slaves of the Qingque tribe as a way to punish them.

However, Mao did not do so. He just forcibly took away all the food of the Chicken Leg Tribe and told the people of the Chicken Leg Tribe that after a period of time, they would have to exchange the food for salt, pottery and other things from his own tribe.

In Xiong You'er's view, such things were not punishments at all, but rewards for them.

After all, the pottery and salt of his tribe are so good.

He really couldn't understand why what the Chicken Leg Tribe did seemed to be similar to what non-tribes did.

As a result, many people outside the tribe died, and those who survived became captives of their own tribe. After being brought back to the tribe, they became slaves of their own tribe.

However, none of the people from the Chicken Leg Tribe died, and they could continue to live in their caves. The punishment they received seemed more like a reward...

Hearing Xiong You'er's question, Mao couldn't help but smile.

He had already anticipated Xiong You'er's question.

After getting along with each other for so long, he already had a rough idea of ​​Xiong You'er's personality.

He really likes people like Xiong You'er.

When you encounter something you don’t understand, ask. Only in this way can you learn more.

In this regard, the next witch in the tribe, Shitou, is an outstanding representative.

Through continuous learning and frequently asking questions to the Son of God, Stone gained a lot of knowledge.

It can be said that he is the wisest person in the entire tribe except for the Son of God. Even the veteran wise wizard in the tribe is not as good as him.

Of course, there is one thing that I will not easily say or tell others.

The point is that when someone asks him for advice and he explains something to him, he will have an exceptionally wonderful feeling.

He couldn't quite describe what the feeling was like, but it was extremely comfortable and somewhat fascinating.

Especially after some explanation, the person asking for advice understands the reason why I did so, and when the person asking for advice shows an expression of sudden enlightenment, the sense of relief is simply indescribable!

It's more fascinating than hiding in the bushes with those older female primitives who work as middlemen.

This kind of spiritual enjoyment far exceeds physical happiness.

Mao has his own ideas about what Xiong You'er is wondering about.

At the beginning, he really wanted the people in the trading team to find ropes and tie up all the people from the Chicken Leg Tribe who wanted to attack him and others, but after seeing his true strength, they were so scared that they lay on the ground begging for mercy and submission, and then took them back to Jinguan City to serve as slaves of the Green Bird Tribe.

Because although these people did not actually attack themselves and others, they had such thoughts.

Such thoughts, and their actions, are infuriating.

But after some thought, Mao changed his mind.

The most important point is that there is not enough food stored in Jinguan City.

The main reason why he brought the newly formed trading team to this unfamiliar land to restart trade was that there were too many people in Jinguan City and too little food.

For now, the excessive population and the resulting food gap are still large, and there is still great pressure.

He had already destroyed a non-tribe and captured sixty or seventy prisoners of all sizes.

If all the people from the Chicken Leg Tribe were tied up and brought back to Jinguan City, the food pressure in Jinguan City would become even greater and things would become even more difficult to handle.

Under such circumstances, it would be better to continue to preserve the Chicken Leg Tribe and let them continue to obtain food in this area. After a while, you can bring the trading team to exchange a certain amount of food from them.

In this way, the people of the Chicken Leg Tribe can provide a certain amount of food to the Green Bird Tribe while feeding themselves.

At this stage, this is much more profitable than turning the people of the Chicken Leg Tribe into slaves of the Green Bird Tribe.

After all, after these people join the Qingque tribe, their food, clothing, housing and transportation will need to be considered by the people of the Qingque tribe.

Before the development of rice cultivation, the amount of food that could be produced near Jinguan City was limited.

Even if more people were added to obtain food, they would not be able to obtain much more.

It would be better to let the people of the Chicken Leg Tribe stay in their original tribe and get food.

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, the behavior of the Chicken Leg Tribe is very different from that of non-tribes.

Although both tribes wanted to attack the Qingque tribe's trading team, the results were different.

The non-tribal people actually attacked the Green Bird Tribe's trading team, while the people from the Chicken Leg Tribe had stopped before the two sides came into contact.

Then, before Mao and others could say anything or make any move, he had already dropped the weapon in his hands and prostrated himself on the ground to show his submission.

Under such circumstances, the Trade Union does have reason to take such action against the Chicken Leg Tribe.

Mao thought for a while, organized his words, and began to tell Xiong You'er about this matter.

This time, Xiong You'er's reaction was not particularly slow.

Not long after Mao finished telling these things, he already understood the purpose and significance of Mao's actions.

He suddenly realized what was going on and couldn't help but give Mao a thumbs up and expressed his sincere admiration - "Mao, you are smarter than the donkeys in our tribe!"

After seeing Xiong You'er's appearance and hearing his praise without a trace of falsehood, Mao shook his head and said that he dared not, and that his intelligence was just average and not very smart.

However, the smile on his face, which he couldn't hide, completely betrayed his mood at the moment.

Only the people of the Qingque tribe would smile when they hear such compliments comparing them to donkeys.

If such words were to happen in later generations, a person who was praised as being smarter than a donkey would be furious, get angry like a donkey, and beat the shit out of the person who praised him.

I have never seen such sincere insults!

The reason for such a big deviation is that in the Qingque tribe, donkey is not a derogatory term.

Words like "bald donkey" and "stupid donkey" used to insult people have never developed.

The reason for this is that donkeys are still the main force used by the Qingque tribe to pull carts and farm.

Since these things are of great use to the tribe, the kind-hearted people of the Green Bird tribe are reluctant to scold them.

Moreover, in addition to being hardworking and able to help the tribe do a lot of heavy work, donkeys have many other advantages.

For example, the donkey's ability to crawl through the grass is very enviable.

Whether it is something as thick as an arm, or its long battery life, or its full spirit, it is extremely enviable to many male primitive people.

Fortunately, the image of Qingque has already penetrated into the hearts of the people in the Qingque tribe and has taken root.

Otherwise, the donkey, a species introduced from the semi-agricultural tribe, would definitely replace the green bird, become the new god of the green bird tribe, and slowly become their belief.

The Qingque tribe will also need to change its name when the time comes.

From the Green Bird Tribe, they successfully degenerated into the Big Donkey Tribe...

Just thinking about this makes people tremble all over...

In the Green Bird Tribe, donkeys are not only not stupid, but also have many positive images.

For example, "After three days of absence, one should look at the donkey with new eyes." "It is not a farmer's donkey." And so on.

Of course, not everyone in the Green Bird Tribe is happy to hear others praise them by saying "smarter than a donkey".

Han Dashenzi, who came from later generations, is such a being.

Faced with the trend of comparing donkeys to humans that suddenly emerged in the tribe, Han Dashenzi treated it as a joke at first with a dark heart.

As a person who came from the afterlife, I saw a person sincerely saying to another person: "You are smarter than a donkey."

While the person being praised has an expression of joy and enjoyment on his face, he cannot help but feel a surge of malice in his heart.

Many times, I can't help but want to laugh.

However, one time when they were in the main tribe, Shitou asked him a question, and he answered it. After Shitou understood it, he looked at him with admiration and said, "Son of God, you are so wise! Wiser than the donkeys in the tribe!" After that, Han Cheng's heart suddenly no longer had such malice.

Even now, he can still remember how the smile on his face froze at that time.

Originally, if Shitou had understood what was going on, he would have just left without saying a word and it wouldn't have been a big deal. Han Dashenzi would have just had to suffer such a loss in silence.

But I don’t know what’s wrong with this guy Shitou’s brain.

He regarded Han Cheng's stunned reaction as meaning that the Son of God was moved by his sincere praise.

So, in order to strengthen this effect and let the great and wise Son of God be moved again, Shi Tou immediately continued to praise.

Knowing that the Son of God had such a big reaction to being compared to a donkey, when the stone spoke again it would naturally "pick up the thick nettles", and the praise it said would naturally be related to the donkey.

So, the tragedy happened.

"Son of God, you are so wise! Even the donkeys in our tribe can't compare to you!"

"Son of God, the donkey of the tribe..."

Seeing the Son of God standing there motionless, his breathing becoming heavier due to his praise, and his emotions completely aroused by him, Shi Tou became even more excited and proud.

In the entire Qingque tribe, apart from himself, no one has ever been able to praise the Son of God to this extent!

Faced with such a rare opportunity, Shitou would naturally not let it go easily, so his speaking speed became faster and faster, and the frequency of mentioning the donkey became higher and higher.

"roll!"

As Shitou spoke more and more excitedly, Han Dashenzi, whose breathing became increasingly heavy, finally exploded.

The shout of "get out" was so powerful that it sounded like a bolt of lightning.

Shi Tou was stunned and stood there for about half a second, then he ran away.

Han Dashenzi, who was furious and had white smoke coming out of both nostrils, followed closely behind.

So, under the astonished gaze of the people of the Qingque tribe, the two of them staged an extremely exciting chase...

Since that incident, no one in the tribe dared to touch the Son of God's beard or praise him with a donkey.

However, the people of the Green Bird Tribe expressed their incomprehension as to why the Son of God was so disgusted by others using a donkey to metaphorically describe him.

After all, donkeys are so excellent and have many advantages.

They really couldn't understand why the Son of God would look down on such an excellent animal.

It’s not that he looks down on this kind of animal. The Son of God also cherishes livestock like donkeys and relies on them equally.

However, people in the tribe are not allowed to use creatures like donkeys to praise him.

Regarding such matters, Shitou once asked the Son of God carefully after his anger had subsided.

The result was that Han Dashenzi, who had calmed down, became angry and humiliated again, and his roar enveloped the entire Qingque tribe.

With curiosity full of stone, without any hesitation, he ran away again, and the agile Son of God chased after him.

The Qingque tribe was once again in chaos.

After seeing this spectacle with their jaws and eyeballs falling to the ground, the people of the Green Bird tribe began to watch the show with great interest.

It’s a pity that there are no watermelons in the tribe. If there were, these guys would become the real crowd eating watermelons and watching the show...

However, although Mao was very confident when he spoke to Xiong You'er and others at this time, he was actually still very nervous about how to deal with this matter.

I am worried that such a treatment would not be in line with the will of the Son of God.

But in order to appear more relaxed in front of everyone, he still acted very calm.

"Good! You did a great job on this!"

In the Jinguan City of the Qingque tribe, after carefully listening to what happened, Han Dashenzi stretched out his hand and patted Mao on the shoulder, praising him with a smile...
