"You'll see later. In short, this black stone is very useful to our tribe!"
Later, she also wanted to teach the tribespeople how to forge iron, which would be better than just using firewood if there was coal available.
"Amu, we probably won't find anything better today besides this coal!"
By this time, Ya had already seen the end of the stalls. He could clearly see at a glance what was displayed in the stalls ahead, and there was nothing they needed.
"Let's go back first. I'm very interested in those rat-like orcs. What do you think about us subjugating them and making them our vassal race?"
As they walked, Lin Xue shared her thoughts with Ya.
"But Amu, the Sky Rat Clan's fighting strength is very weak. What use are they to us?"
Those short guys aren't good at fighting, they're not even good enough to be used as decorations.
"Have you forgotten their characteristics? They live underground during the cold season!"
Lin Xue saw that she had already given such a clear hint, but her good son still hadn't grasped her meaning, so she had no choice but to continue explaining.
"If we settle these Sky Rat Clan members underground around the Green Mountain Tribe, wouldn't it be easier to detect other orcs secretly coveting our Green Mountain Tribe?"
The Sky Rat clan prefers to live underground during the cold season.
However, the orcs of the Orc Continent do not have the habit of hibernating. They remain awake during the winter and still need food and to observe the outside world.
Therefore, if there are several Tian Shu tribe strongholds around the Qingshan tribe.
If other tribes of orcs attack, these Sky Rat tribes can run away from underground and return to the Green Mountain tribe to report the news.
You should know that these Sky Rat Clan members are all skilled at shrinking their bodies; the caves they can squeeze into are places that other orcs cannot.
Although rats are disliked by people, no one is more suitable than them for intelligence organizations.
"Um?"
"If what Amu said is true, then recruiting the Sky Rat clan is not out of the question!"
"In addition, our Green Mountain tribe will begin cultivating wasteland for food production starting next year. These Sky Rat tribesmen are not good at hunting, but I think farming should be no problem for them!"
"At that time, our Green Mountain Tribe will have more manpower to do other things. I'm sure the Sky Rat Tribe will also be willing to submit to a powerful tribe, so that their safety can be guaranteed!"
Following Lin Xue's line of thought, Ya felt that it was indeed a good idea.
Although some food may be lost, it will help these Sky Rat Orcs survive the cold season.
However, if they manage to grow food next year, these Sky Rat Clan beastmen won't have eaten for nothing.
night.
"Chief, there are two Sky Rat Clan members outside. They say they're looking for females from our tribe!"
Lin Xue and the others had just finished cooking dinner when they heard a member of their tribe come over to report.
"Let them in!"
Ya glanced at Lin Xue and, seeing that his mother had nodded, had his people bring in the two Sky Rat clansmen.
"Sniff~"
"Sniff sniff~"
As soon as they entered the shack, the Sky Rat Clan beastman sniffed loudly.
However, he didn't dare to go too far. He took two deep breaths and then stopped making any further movements.
Beside him followed an elderly Sky Rat Clan beastman with a white beard.
This elderly Sky Rat orc behaved much like his fellow orcs.
When Lin Xue and the others looked over, he lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Please sit down!"
Ya pointed to the spot opposite them.
"Thank you very much, Chief of the Green Mountain Tribe!"
"I am White Rat, the chieftain of the Sky Rat tribe. I heard that you want to buy our black stones and that you need us to deliver them to your tribe. Is that true?"
After the white mouse sat down, it looked at the food laid out in front of it and couldn't help but twitch its lips twice, but the next second it looked away.
Oh my god!
What do those Shadow Orcs eat?
How can it smell so good!
He was afraid that if he looked at it any longer, he would be unable to resist rushing to snatch it!
"This matter is not urgent. We would like to discuss something else with Chief White Rat!"
Ya scooped a bowl of thick vegetable and meat porridge from the scalding hot stone pot and placed it in front of Lin Xue, speaking slowly and deliberately.
"Ya, please serve a bowl to the two guests as well!"
Lin Xue looked at the two people's eyes, which dared not glance at the food, and felt a little sigh.
In the ancient orc continent, how many orcs suffered from hunger?
Take, for example, the two Sky Rat Beastmen in front of us. Compared to other Beastmen races, they are not only shorter, but also thinner.
This appearance clearly indicates long-term hunger and malnutrition.
"Okay, Amu!"
Upon hearing their conversation, the white rat and his people looked at Lin Xue in surprise.
They hadn't expected the other party to invite them to dinner; for the Sky Rat Clan, food was an extremely precious thing.
This is a group of people who would rather eat a single piece of dried radish in three separate meals.
Only after receiving the invitation did the two dare to focus their attention on the food in front of them.
That round thing, whose exact shape I don't know, emitted a strong fragrance.
There were also pieces of golden food, which they couldn't tell what they were made of, but they recognized the scallions on top.
There was also the wild vegetable and animal meat porridge in the stone bowl. They recognized the wild vegetables and the meat of wild animals, but they would only cook it like this when preparing food for cubs that didn't have enough milk.
