Chapter 256
In the cafeteria, everyone was cooking with their hearts full, and the smell of burnt food wafted over from time to time.
Ake and Lily looked at each other and saw relief and fear in each other's eyes.
The situation of the argali people is better than that of the small orcs, but they are vegetarian orcs after all, and their prototype is at a disadvantage compared to the carnivorous orcs.
Their tribe suffered heavy losses, with only fifty or so members surviving. If the snow werewolves had not taken them in, even if they were not eaten by the monsters, they would have fallen into the hands of the Golden Kingdom sooner or later.
We are not fools. It has only been a few years since the Golden Kingdom established the country, treated the small orcs as slaves, and now sells the small orcs to humans.
Who knows which tribe of orcs they will attack in the future, but the weak orcs will definitely be the first to bear the brunt.
Orcs have always worshipped powerful military force and disdained to oppress the weak, but the orcs of the kingdom went against this idea and betrayed the orcs' beliefs that had existed for thousands of years.
It’s no wonder that the other orcs in the Fantasy Continent changed their expressions when they heard about the Golden Kingdom. It was considered good-tempered that they didn’t take action on the spot.
Yu Sui pulled Qi's sleeve, and the two of them walked out of the cafeteria.
Xu, who was quietly helping the irritable Ah Qing, caught a glimpse of their actions, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. What ideas did the two of them have in mind, and they quietly went out to discuss it. Alas, Xiao Yusui is going to learn bad things.
"Brother Qi, let's go find Uncle Heiyan."
Walking outside, Yu Sui looked up and said to Qi.
Without asking any more questions, Qi nodded, "Okay."
After that, he took Yu Sui's hand and walked towards his home. He had not yet explained today's events in detail to his father, and he didn't know whether the other soldiers had told him when they were setting up the tent. Qi thought of Notting, who was a big mouth and couldn't hold back anything. Well, they should have said it.
…
When Yu Sui and the other arrived, Hei Yan was furious at home. His voice of roaring and cursing the orcs of the Golden Kingdom could be heard from a long distance away. Lu, who usually would stop him, became extremely angry after hearing the news today and started cursing with him.
Heiyan's home wasn't far from the tiger tribe's temporary tents, so with the tiger tribe's keen hearing, they must have heard everything clearly...
Yu Suixian poked his head in from the door to observe the situation first.
I saw Uncle Heiyan walking back and forth in the room, cursing and spitting everywhere, with a very ugly look on his face.
He was a little hesitant. Should he let the two of them vent their emotions for a while before going in?
As he was hesitating, Qi took his arm around his shoulders and led him inside, saying to his parents in front of him, "Father, Mother."
Heiyan cursed without even turning around: "You should just beat up the Tiger Tribe instead of negotiating a deal with them. If the small orcs become the subject of a trade, then the Tiger Tribe won't be far behind!"
Hearing him scolding his son, Lu was a little unhappy, "What nonsense are you talking about? The Tiger Tribe has so many warriors, and we only have so many people. Can we defeat them?"
Black Rock was scolded by his partner, but he couldn't refute him. He transferred his anger to the Golden Kingdom. "These damn traitors, dealing with those cunning humans every day, now they don't act like orcs at all. Aren't they afraid of not being able to face their ancestors in the future?"
Yu Sui appeared from behind Qi and said weakly, "Uncle Heiyan, Aunt Lu..."
"..." Heiyan was startled for a moment, stopped talking, smiled awkwardly and said, "Xiao Yu Sui is here too."
It seemed as if no parents in the world wanted to curse in front of their children. Heiyan's attitude suddenly changed 360 degrees, and he even forced a smile on his face.
Green walked around Heiyan with a smile, "Come in, you haven't been here for a while."
Yu Sui walked over and sat down. After a while, Lu brought him a cup of hot water and some snacks.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Heiyan also found a chair and sat down and asked.
After hesitating for a while, Yu Sui said, "Uncle Heiyan, I came here to ask about the Kun and Qiong tribes..."
A look of understanding appeared on Qi's face.
Hei Yan asked curiously, "Why are you asking them? The most difficult winter is over, and there's an abundant supply of food now..."
"Is there no winter this year?" Lu asked back unhappily.
Heiyan, who was unable to react for a moment, suddenly realized and said, "I understand. Xiao Yusui has fallen for Kun and Qiong!"
"Puff!" All the water that Yu Sui had just drunk sprayed out.
What a terrible choice of words! He's attracted to the people of the Kun and Qiong tribes! Wait, it doesn't seem that different...
Lu patted Heiyan on the back and said, "What nonsense! You know Xiao Yusui has been wanting to expand the tribe's population for a long time. Speaking of which, the Kun and Qiong tribes are really good choices. Letting them come over now is just the right time to farm with us. Their two tribes combined have nearly 200 members. If it weren't for the loss of members in the Qiong tribe that year, there would be more than 200, which is quite a lot."
With so many snow wolves, how much work can they do? Yu Sui’s eyes were almost shining, and he stared at Uncle Heiyan with eagerness.
Qi also spoke up for his partner: "This way, their two tribes will no longer have to go hungry in the winter, and Chief Kun will no longer have to worry about his people being swallowed by monsters just for a bite of fish."
His last words made Heiyan silent, and he sighed after a long time.
"You're right. I originally wanted to go find them during the harvest, but now it seems it's best to go earlier."
Now think about it, even if Kun and Qiong were persuaded to bring their people to join the Heitu tribe during the harvest season, they would still need to eat the Heitu tribe's food for the entire winter, which would definitely be a burden for them.
It seems that this matter should be done in advance.
"But Xiaoyu Sui, why did you suddenly bring up this matter?" Heiyan asked in confusion.
Yu Sui raised his head and said with a heavy expression, "The fate of those small orcs today may be the fate of all the other orcs on the continent. Dahua only brought a few dozen warriors with him and we couldn't defeat them. These warriors are just a drop in the bucket of the Golden Kingdom's military strength. If they really can't satisfy the number of small orcs in the kingdom in the future, I'm afraid we will all be in danger."
"So you also want to increase the strength of the tribe like them?" Heiyan already had the answer in his mind.
Lu clapped his hands and sat down next to Yu Sui happily. "Yu Sui is right. The sooner we increase the population of our tribe, the safer it will be, and we can also plant more land."
"Yes, we can harvest more food." Yu Sui and Lu Xin smiled knowingly.
Although the Heitu tribe had originally reclaimed a lot of wasteland, the tribe did not have enough manpower to manage so many fields.
Especially during the autumn harvest season, wheat, rice and other crops need to be harvested. Unless the dwarves can make a harvester, the tribe’s limited manpower will not be enough.
