A beautiful legend emerged from the Niupi tribe. The chief priest of the Niupi tribe received guidance from the Bull God, became psychic, and was taught the powerful fire-making technique by the Bull God...
When the news reached the Sea Tribe, the high priest and the second priest looked at each other and suddenly burst into laughter.
It seems that the charlatan's guess was correct, it's all fake.
"No, let me try it too!" said the high priest as he walked into the kitchen and took out a can of boiled animal oil.
"Stop it, it will waste so much oil." The second priest saw the chief priest holding out an oil can and snatched it away, feeling distressed, because this can of oil could be used to make a lot of stir-fried pork with green onions.
"You can't even let me satisfy my craving for a charlatan? Ha!" The high priest rolled his eyes.
"Fake?" Wu Qi, the messenger, was no fool. He looked at the oil tank and felt depressed. Hadn't the Hai Tribe used whale oil to burn the Niupi Tribe's army? So stupid!
"Wu Qi, you finally came back. Do you have any important news? Who knows, there might be a chance to get a plate of stir-fried pork with green onions from the charlatan. We two old brothers would like to lend him a hand." said the second priest.
There are more onions now, and Ma Yue is not so stingy anymore. He finds any excuse and the two priests come to Ma Yue to eat fried meat with onions, fried eggs, etc. It's delicious, who doesn't like it?
"The Niupi tribe has expanded its army of nearly a hundred able-bodied men, all thanks to this... fire-making trick. I guess all the people who resell goods in the Niupi tribe were recruited by their high priest in this way." Wu Qi's jungle branch was close to the Niupi tribe and had the most up-to-date information.
"My spies said that more than thirty people from the Purple Tribe were captured by the Cowhide Tribe. What do you think? Will the two tribes start fighting?"
We're all part of a large tribe, so how could we not have spies and scouts? Jungle Branch 1 is a crucial base for the Sea Tribe to advance beyond the Great Forest, and gathering information is a crucial responsibility. It's not just about farming for you, Jungle Branch 1.
"The Purple Tribe is after the pottery basin?"
"Eighty percent likely!"
"It seems that the charlatan's guess was correct. The Purple Tribe can boil salt, but they don't have enough pottery plates to boil it."
"It's really going to get chaotic." The high priest thought of what Ma Yue said, that war is possible only for huge benefits.
"The Purple Tribe has more people, so can we just fight our way in? At least the Niupi Tribe also has a wooden wall." Wu Qi said. Didn't the Hai Tribe rely on a wooden wall to protect their property back then?
"It's hard to say. Zi Ya, the leader of the Purple Tribe, is very good at fighting. Perhaps Zi Ya has other ways." The second priest said, aren't all tactics summarized in battle?
"Fire!" The high priest's eyes lit up.
“Who knows!”
"What? Could it be that the Purple Tribe has a way to get a large amount of oil?" Wu Qi didn't believe it. The Sea Tribe was able to launch a fire attack because of a coincidence. Two super-large whales appeared. Those things really had a lot of fat.
An ordinary wild animal? How much fat can it have? Do you think it's a domesticated pig? That's why animal oil is so precious.
"Don't forget, the Purple Tribe is now close to the sea. What if we get lucky and catch a whale?"
The three leaders actually discussed the issues of the Purple Tribe and the Cowhide Tribe, and several people ran into the Stone City exclaiming.
"Whale! What a huge whale!"
Oh my god! Speak of a whale, and it appears. The two priests beamed instantly. It wasn't the Purple Tribe, it was our Sea Tribe that had a stranded whale on its beach.
The two priests began to organize their forces. They already had experience in this area. Several groups of wildebeest cavalry also set out.
"I'll go back and find someone." Wu Qi also reacted. The whale was so big that they couldn't finish eating it no matter how much they tried. The Jungle Branch had to send people quickly to divide the whale up. The weather was getting hot, and it would be a pity if it went bad!
The Sea Tribe was booming. Wildebeests were constantly dragging whale meat back from the beach. The people in Stone City were constantly cutting up the whale meat, salting it as much as possible. Putting it in the cellar, it would last a long time.
"So lucky?" Ma Yue was also very happy. The stranded whale meant a huge amount of food. With so many people in the Sea Tribe, they could eat as much as they wanted.
"You two, take this piece of whale meat and go to the Buffalo Tribe now. If they want to buy meat, come and take it away. Wildebeest, sheep, animal skins, tools, etc. can all be exchanged for whale meat." Ma Yue called out to the two wildebeest scouts who had just returned.
Unfortunately, the surrounding tribes have very poor consumption capacity, and only the Niupi tribe still has some purchasing power.
The Purple Tribe is relatively too far away, so it’s too late.
"Hai, roughly calculate the value of our whale meat. If the Niupi tribe comes, we can't suffer too much in exchange, right?" It happened that Hai was still there and didn't leave. You are the captain of the trading team. Hai is best at bargaining.
This time was different from the last time. The Sea Tribe now had more sharp knives and axes, so they could cut up the whales much faster. There were also more wildebeests and people, so they could transport them back faster.
Fires were lit in many pottery basins and stoves in the stone city. People ate until they were full, then they could continue cutting and transporting whale meat.
Ma Yue generously contributed a lot of onions and even garlic. With onions and garlic, the aroma became even better.
Wildebeests and able-bodied men from the two branches and two villages kept gathering here. It was a large tribe with plenty of manpower.
Now we don’t have to waste so much whale meat like last time.
People from the Cowhide Tribe have finally arrived. Meat, food is the most important commodity in the world after all, and it is always in short supply.
Niutou, the chief of the Niupi tribe, came in person with a large group of people. So, Hai and Niutou started to talk to each other. Isn't this how transactions between tribes work?
After half an hour of bickering, the Niupi tribe finally started loading the trucks. Yes, they were loading. Even if the snow trucks weren't suitable for summer use, they were still better than the torrents, right? It just made life difficult for the wildebeest pulling the trucks.
God knows how many wildebeests the Niupi tribe has in stock. This time, more than sixty wildebeests came.
Niutou, the chief of the Niupi tribe, was very smart. The first batch of transactions were only sheep. As for the wildebeests... this guy actually wanted to delay payment.
Fine! Let's delay the payment. If we can't haul it away, some of this whale meat will be wasted. Two large whales, each weighing over twenty tons.
Damn it! He sells everything on credit, even tools. This bastard is a bullshit.
The problem is, your Hai tribe has owed a lot of money to the Niupi tribe in the past.
The transport team of the Cowhide Tribe left in a mighty manner, but Niutou did not leave. He took out the cooked whale meat from the pottery basin and started to eat it without any courtesy.
With the two seasonings of chopped green onion and garlic, the taste is so delicious.
Ma Yue didn't mind. There was plenty of whale meat cooked in the stoves and pottery basins in the Stone City, enough to eat. Men, women, young and old in the Sea Tribe could eat as much as they wanted without any limit these days.
"Huh?" Looking at the Ox Head squatting beside the stove and eating with a ceramic bowl in his hand, Ma Yue's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Charlatan, what do you mean?" Niu Tou was really alert and looked at Ma Yue who was not far away.
"Chief, the ornament on your neck is very beautiful." Ma Yue leaned over.
