When Zhao Qian returned to the Yanze tribe, it had already been a few years ago.
After more than a month, all the Black Death patients in the Yanze tribe have been cured. Although many people have died, the tribe has returned to its peaceful days.
At this moment, Tribe Erya is discussing with Yanshan how to increase the tribe's population.
Yanshan said: "Erya, let's follow the previous method and ask the men in the tribe to work harder to find more female slaves and get more women pregnant."
"In addition, as long as a female slave can give birth to three children for the tribe, she can get rid of her slave status and become a tribe member."
"As for the male slaves, forget it. We destroyed their tribe before it was too late for them to hate us. We cannot allow them to become tribesmen."
For a tribe, death is a normal thing.
After all, this world is full of crises. Sometimes if you don't pay attention, the entire tribe will be destroyed.
Therefore, once the number of tribal members decreases, the tribe will find various ways to increase the population.
What Yanshan mentioned are the most common ways to increase population.
"Well, just do what you said and try for three years..." Erya said, suddenly stopped, and said with a wry smile: "I don't know if I can live for such a long time, but with Zhao Qian here, I
You can rest in peace."
Yanshan listened to Erya's words, lowered his head and said nothing, his eyes were a little moist.
In the eyes of other people in the tribe, Erya is the object of their worship, but in Yanshan's heart, Erya is still his relative.
Erya stroked Yanshan's head and said with a smile: "Silly boy, you are now the chief of the tribe, don't cry all the time."
Yanshan wiped his tears and nodded: "Yes, Erya."
At this time, Zhao Qian's voice came from outside the stone house, calling: "Teacher, I have something important to see you."
"come in!"
After Erya's voice fell, Zhao Qian entered the stone house. Erya asked: "Aren't you helping the forest guardian? Why are you back now? The termites have been dealt with?"
Zhao Qian quickly said: "Teacher, these are not important, I may have gotten into trouble."
Erya comforted the anxious Zhao Qian, "Don't worry, tell me slowly what happened."
Zhao Qian tried his best to calm down, and then told what happened in detail.
After saying that, he blamed himself: "Teacher, it's all my fault. I was too crazy at the time. I didn't expect someone from the Bug Tribe to recognize me... I scolded their Erya. The Bug Tribe will definitely not let me go. Even
It will also implicate the tribe."
He thought a lot on the way back, and the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
Because he knows very well that even if he wants to take responsibility for what he says, he may not be able to take responsibility.
"Teacher, why don't you hand me over? Anyway, I'm not from the Yanze Tribe. You can't anger the Insect Tribe because of me."
Zhao Qian continued: "If it were just me, I would be sure that the insect tribe would not kill me."
If you want the insect tribe not to kill him, the most important thing is to show your own value. As long as his value is high enough, the insect tribe will not be willing to kill him.
In this regard, he still has some confidence. After all, the knowledge reserve he has mastered is countless times more than that of the tribal era.
"The teacher will not hand you over!"
Erya looked at Zhao Qian who was blaming himself, but he was not angry at all. He still said in a calm tone: "Although you were not a member of the Yanze tribe before, the teacher has taken note of your contribution to the Yanze tribe during this time.
In the eyes.”
"Not only the teacher, but also other people in the tribe have already regarded you as a member of the tribe... They respect you, not because you are my disciple, but because what you have done deserves their respect."
Zhao Qian said anxiously: "But...but I did something wrong. I provoked the insect tribe."
Erya smiled and said: "In the eyes of the teacher, you are like my children. Since you are children, you will do something wrong sometimes, not to mention the teacher doesn't think you have done anything wrong."
Hearing this, Zhao Qian was very moved.
Originally, he thought that when he told him about provoking the insect tribe, Erya and Yanshan would definitely blame him, and in the end they would even hand him over in order to protect the entire tribe.
But he never expected that Erya would not be angry, but supported his actions, making him feel caring like an elder.
Only elders can be so tolerant of their children.
Zhao Qian thought for a while and asked: "Teacher, if the worm tribe really attacks, are we their opponents?"
Erya shook his head and said: "In our heyday, we might be able to resist the insect tribe, but now, we are no match at all."
Zhao Qian asked again: "Then what will we do if the insect tribe comes?"
Erya smiled and asked, "What do you think we should do?"
Zhao Qian said: "We can move to other places. As long as we keep the green hills, we won't have to worry about running out of firewood."
Erya smiled and said: "If we encounter a disaster that we can't deal with, this is indeed a method, but facing the insect tribe, we don't need to leave."
Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows and asked: "Teacher, is it possible that our Yanze tribe has hidden its strength?"
If the Yanze tribe hadn't hidden their strength, he really couldn't understand why the teacher would be so calm.
After all, they were the Insect Tribe, the top three tribes in the black sand desert, and they were much stronger than them.
"You think too much."
Erya continued: "Erya from the Insect Tribe is called Eagle. He thinks he is as powerful as the eagle in the sky, but in my opinion, he can only be regarded as a coward who is greedy and dare not risk his life."
Greedy?
coward!
When Zhao Qian heard Erya's evaluation of the insect triber Erya, he suddenly felt that calling him a fool had given him a lot of face.
If he keeps scolding me, the insect tribe will probably go crazy.
Erya continued: "To deal with such a person, we only need to do two things. First, fill his belly, and second, make him feel that we are not easy to mess with."
Zhao Qian asked: "It shouldn't be easy to fill the belly of the insect tribe, right?"
Erya said calmly: "I plan to give up the salt mines of the Yanze Tribe. From now on, the Yanze Tribe will no longer sell salt."
"What?"
Yanshan, who had been silent until now, suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Erya, salt is the foundation of our Yanze tribe. If we don't sell salt, how will we survive?"
Erya smiled and said: "Don't ask me how to survive. You can ask Zhao Qian if he has any ideas?"
Zhao Qian said: "If I just raise the Yanze tribe, it would be easy for me."
