"Aqing is back. No beasts are bullying Mom anymore."
Shengxia's almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents as she turned to look at the sulking little lion and spoke softly.
At only three years old, it's almost as big as an adult lion, but its personality remains as straightforward as ever.
"Huh?! No beasts are bullying Mother?" The little lion was taken aback for a moment, then transformed into human form and ran over excitedly. "That's good!"
He had only run halfway when Aoki swiftly grabbed him by the back of the neck, and his limbs swung wildly in the air due to inertia.
He turned around angrily, and Aoki slapped him across the face.
"You're so dirty, how dare you attack your mother?"
What a grown man! He has no sense of propriety and needs to be taught a lesson.
As Shi Qing struggled, a few strands of golden fur fell down, making Sheng Xia's heart tighten. She frowned slightly and quickly walked over to rescue the little lion from his father's hands.
She gently rubbed the back of his neck, feeling a pang of sympathy. "Ah Qing, does it hurt?"
Sensing the concern in his mother's tone, Shiqing excitedly raised his fluffy head and cheered.
"It doesn't hurt, Mom, it doesn't hurt."
Lion Mountain, standing nearby, watched this scene with a kind smile.
He thought with a sigh that Xia Xia was in a miserable state a few years ago and would often have to beg for food from other animals' homes.
Now she is happy and content, with a wonderful child, a capable partner, and is leading the tribe to develop so well.
That's great.
"Chief, is this what Xiaxia is going to use to make shell coins?" Chengguo belatedly realized what was happening and asked the wheat straw with curiosity.
Xiaxia is so clever; who would have thought that wheat straw, which can only be used as firewood, could be made into shell coins?
"Yes, Xiaxia said to use this."
The chief chuckled and answered, carefully putting down the wheat straw and squatting down to arrange it.
I felt nervous yet excited.
My brain was racing, constantly thinking about ways to implement paper money, and I thought of several that could be improved.
Seeing the silver wolf carrying its prey in out of the corner of his eye, Lion Mountain's eyes lit up. He stood up and said with a smile,
"The Wolf King is back! Come quickly, come quickly, I have something to ask you." The Wolf King is smart and meticulous, so asking him is definitely the right thing to do.
The wolf king instantly transformed into human form, handed the prey to Xingmu, and walked over unhurriedly. Looking at the chieftain, he smiled gently and spoke with neither servility nor arrogance.
"Chief, you've arrived. What do you want to ask me?"
As he spoke, he walked over to Shengxia, put his arm around her shoulder, rubbed Shiqing's head, and turned his gaze to the chief, waiting for him to speak.
Shengxia's almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents. She took the opportunity to hug Wolf King's arm and snuggle into his embrace, tilting her head back and staring intently at his perfect jawline.
So beautiful! Her gentle and refined temperament is absolutely stunning.
The chief explained the matter clearly in a few words. Wolf King was surprised for a moment, then looked down at Sheng Xia and exclaimed with delight in a gentle voice.
"Xiaxia is amazing, she came up with such a great idea. Shall we go sit down over there and talk about it?"
"Okay, okay, let's all come together, Guoguo, come quick!" Shengxia nodded happily.
I have this strange feeling that I'm about to witness history.
She couldn't suppress the smile on her lips, and even as she sat in the pavilion eating the fresh fruit that Tie Bai handed her, the corners of her lips remained upturned.
Summer pulled Orange Fruit to sit with her, snacking and watching Wolf King and Chief talk back and forth with bright eyes.
Soon, the implementation method for Shell Coins was determined.
The chieftain and the wolf king exchanged a smile, their voices filled with confidence and pride as they spoke in loud, powerful voices.
"Okay, it's decided then. I'll make the arrangements properly. I'll have to trouble you to come with me these next few days."
Thinking of something, he immediately added, "Oh, right, invite your Hu Xue too, that kid's really smart."
"Okay." Wolf King nodded gently with a smile.
As a beast who had observed the entire process, Orange excitedly slapped its thigh upon hearing the conclusion. Its bright white teeth shone brightly with excitement.
"Xiaxia! Xiaxia! Our tribe is amazing!!!" This means we're about to surpass the big tribes.
Sheng Xia was equally excited, her almond-shaped eyes curving into crescents, her light tone filled with obvious pleasure as she nodded emphatically.
"Yes! Our tribe is amazing!"
They are probably no worse than super tribes, and to be a bit bolder, the Yafatu are already a more powerful force than super tribes.
Orange's chest heaved violently, her eyes gleaming as she suddenly stood up, causing the rocking chair behind her to sway heavily a few times due to her movement.
She opened her arms and rushed over to hug Shengxia, her bright voice cheerful as she said, "Xiaxia, I'm going back now. I'll come find you again tomorrow."
I can't take it anymore, I'm so excited my heart is about to jump out of my chest.
She needs to go home and find a partner to mate with and put out the fire!
The sweet, soft fragrance of midsummer had just faded a little when I opened my eyes to see the excited figure of Orange running away, with a blazing fire above its head.
She smiled knowingly.
This girl gets angry easily.
Fortunately, the fire won't hurt me. I don't know how it works, but not a single hair on my head will be burned.
"Xiaxia, when are we going to start making shell coins?" the chieftain couldn't help but ask with a smile.
After asking the question, he rubbed his hands together sheepishly.
“Let’s do it now. We still need half a vat of quicklime.” Sheng Xia’s almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile.
There's no time like the present, let's do it today!
She hasn't made paper in a long time, and she gets a little excited when she thinks about it. I wonder if she's gotten rusty?
"Alright, I'll arrange for the orcs to fetch the lime right away!" The chieftain's wise face gleamed with excitement, his smile so wide it almost disappeared from his eyes.
The bright sunshine illuminated the earth, and in the pavilion adorned with beautiful vines and flowers, several orcs wore identical smiles on their faces.
When Yang Yun came out again and saw this scene, she paused for a moment, then quickly walked over with the food in her hand.
