"The largest tribe that's relatively close to here should be the Flower Tiger tribe," Peng Qi said, looking at Haitang. Haitang was a little surprised to hear this, as she naturally knew about the Flower Tiger tribe.
As Haitang looked around, she heard commotion outside. Other beastmen had come to exchange women, but they had their eyes on the fox wolf's woman. "This is my wife, I won't trade her..."
"Go away, so what if she's your wife? I told you I'd give you a sheep. Let go of her, she's my woman now." He said directly, looking at the woman behind the fox-wolf.
Upon hearing this, Fox Wolf's expression darkened. The beastmen who had arrived were from the neighboring wolf tribe, but not from any of the Wolf Fang wolf tribes. Instead, they were from a small, scattered wolf tribe with about four or five hundred members.
Under these circumstances, they are even more formidable than the fox tribe in front of them. They almost always snatch away any woman they fancy when they come to exchange women. Right now, the fox tribe has very few females, and the remaining females dare not go out.
Today, because Haitang and the others came, the woman from the fox-wolf tribe originally planned to bring some water, but unexpectedly, on the way, the people from the wolf tribe arrived and bumped into the woman from the fox-wolf tribe.
The female fox-wolf cowered behind the wolf, somewhat frightened. The wolf's reaction angered the members of the wolf tribe. At that moment, the fox-wolf spoke up, "It can't be her. She's my wife. Our tribe has other unmarried females..."
Moreover, there are too few sheep; it's impossible to exchange one for a female. It's just that the other party is so forceful that there's nothing I can do.
Upon hearing this, the wolf tribe members in front of them immediately became enraged and began to attack, along with the dozens of wolf cubs behind them.
Haitang couldn't help but frown as she watched. After all, the fox tribe was going to cooperate with the tiger tribe. If something went wrong at this time, their cooperation wouldn't go well either.
Furthermore, Haitang didn't want anything to go wrong. There were things that needed to be transported away as soon as possible, and winter was fast approaching. Every extra day they could get the coal back would mean one more day of warmth for their tribe.
Haitang glanced at Qiao Ming, who nodded and walked out. He reached out and grabbed the wolf tribe beastman who was making the move. Lang Jue's expression darkened when he saw someone interfering, but he immediately stopped acting rashly when he realized that the other party was a tiger beastman.
"Brother Tiger, what are you doing here?" The Tiger Clan is very powerful, how come they're in this small tribe?
Although the Flower Tiger Clan has shown signs of decline these days, they are still very powerful to this Wolf Clan tribe, and they dare not provoke them easily.
"I'm staying here, what do you want? Are you trying to disturb our lodging?" Qiao Ming said coldly as he looked at the person who came in. He knew how to use someone else's authority to his advantage.
Moreover, since they were originally tigers, the current tiger tribe would not be a tribe that could be easily bullied by others, so this truly came from the tribe's own prestige.
Upon hearing this, Lang Jue glanced at Qiao Ming, then at Haitang and Huo Ling behind him. It was clear they came from a large tribe, judging from the materials they wore and the things they used.
Especially that tall, muscular figure; he looked like someone who had eaten his fill. This must be someone from a large tribe; his clothes were made of much better material than mine. "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding... misunderstanding..."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ming smiled and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, can you all leave now?" Upon hearing this, Lang Jue and the others immediately ran away.
At this moment, the fox-wolf looked at Qiao Ming and breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you." He knew that the Begonia who was with Qiao Ming and the others was not from the Flower Tiger clan.
If they were from the Flower Tiger Clan, they wouldn't need to ride this Roc at all, since the Flower Tiger Clan can travel during the day, and Peng Qi is clearly not a beast slave. It's conceivable that Haitang and the others came from a much farther place.
Haitang smiled and said, "No need to be polite, we are partners." Upon hearing this, Peng Qi and the others smiled and sat down not far away to start eating.
While Fox Wolf and the others were eating, Haitang suddenly spoke up, "Haven't you ever thought about leaving this place?"
"Leave? Where can we go?" Upon hearing the words, Fox Wolf said bitterly, "Where in the world is there no place that isn't inhabited by orcs?"
As the number of orc tribes increased, they would go to the surrounding areas. Since they were originally scattered from large tribes, they were even more justified in seizing territory.
The fox tribe and others fled here when the volcano erupted. There was almost nowhere else to go around, and leaving the tribe to go elsewhere would be almost the same as dying.
Upon hearing this, Haitang couldn't help but purse her lips, but remained silent. Haitang stayed in the tribe that night, sending Peng Qi's men back to report the news. Haitang still needed to investigate how large the mine actually was.
Haitang was very happy to have this coal mine, the bigger the better, so that her tribe's coal mine could become a supplier. Of course, the only downside was the transportation, which would take a lot of effort.
If this were modern times, it would be faster, but the problem is this is ancient times. If there were railcars, transporting coal by burning coal would be even faster. Of course, Haitang thinks this is wishful thinking.
At least I don't have the ability or skill to make it. The next day, Haitang and Huoling and others went to the back mountain early in the morning to see it.
Not far away, a little beastman followed his mother to gather fruit. The green fruit was very sour, but no one would give it up in order to fill their stomachs.
