King Cuangui had just met with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to confirm the real integration of the two into one.
From the moment he agreed, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan could invest in the local area without any need to sign any contracts or documents. Verbal promises were enough.
At the same time, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also took on the responsibility of making the local people live a better life after receiving King Cuangui's gift.
At this time, people began to come back from hunting. Each group was made up of people from the Zhang Xiaobao and Wang families and the local people. They interfered with each other a little, but didn't deliberately cause trouble.
The warriors in the tribe thought that they were more familiar with the terrain than the Tang people. At the same time, they knew the local trees and wild animals, so they could have a big advantage.
When the competition started, they found that the opponent was also familiar with everything they were familiar with. Moreover, the opponent moved faster than them, attacked more accurately, and was more powerful.
Large and small animals were carried back. The rest of the people in the tribe all came out and planned to hold a big bonfire banquet. They also contributed the local sweet wine. Zhang Xiaobao took out strong wine.
When they checked the game, they found that the prey of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang families was only a dozen more than the prey of the warriors in the tribe, and the size was not much different.
The only difference was the place where the wild animals were attacked. Most of the attacks by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang families were fatal. There was only a small wound on a wild boar. It was pierced directly from the neck to the heart by a tri-edged thorn, and then it bled to death.
The people in the tribe were all shocked. That was a wild boar. Who killed it? Wild boars had teeth.
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the wound and also had a lingering fear. He scolded Zhang Dufeng of the No. 1 protection team, "Who asked you to take the risk? It's just a hunt, not a hand-to-hand fight with the enemy. Is it worth risking your life? "
Zhang Dufeng, who was scolded, lowered his head and didn't say anything. He just rubbed one arm. Obviously, he was injured. No one knew what he did when facing the wild boar, but he was able to stab the tri-edged thorn into the wild boar's heart.
The people in the tribe looked at Zhang Dufeng as if he was a hero, which made the warriors in the tribe who participated in the competition feel very sad.
They already knew that if they were to fight with the other party, the chances of winning were very low. Looking at the wounds on the other party's prey, it meant that the other party was more powerful.
Fan Fan jumped out to liven up the atmosphere and said, "There are quite a lot of complete skins. When they are cooked, they don't need to be processed. They can be sold directly to the rich people in prosperous areas. They will like to collect them. I'll buy them all."
No one said anything, so he had to add, "Let's exchange, I'll exchange the goods I brought with you. It's all on Brother Mo Ah's tribe. After all, I hunted in your place, and you even provided a place to barbecue."
"I think it's fine." Zhang Xiaobao agreed. "We don't need leather, and we don't lack the goods that Boss Fan brought. Just give us a few pieces of meat that we can't eat."
Cuan Mo 'a was not pretentious. His tribe really needed things, especially now that the autumn harvest season had not yet arrived. The previous stock of food was almost used up, and it was a time of shortage. There was a great demand for goods brought by merchants. It was better than eating wild vegetables every day.
Fan Fan was very happy, as if he had won the lottery. He had already thought about it. He would give a very high price in exchange for the leather and wild boar teeth.
After leaving, he would go directly to the capital and hold an auction there. He would reveal the source of the leather, which represented the honor of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang family. He believed that many rich people would rush to raise the price.
When the prey was put on the grill, the children of the tribe, Xiaobei, and the other nine people also came back from the river. The children burped one by one. Obviously, they were full from eating fish.
Xiaobei did not forget to remind Cuan Mo 'a's children. "When spring comes next year, you go up the mountain to pick tea leaves. I will help you package them and sell them at a high price. We can't do it in China. There are too many places with tea leaves, so we have to sell them outside."
"People outside like to drink tea leaves?" Cuan Mo 'a's son asked.
"It's not a matter of liking. It's that they admire the Tang Empire. If the Tang people say that this thing is good, they think it's good. For example, if I say that it's comfortable to wear, when they wear it, they will definitely agree with me. It's comfortable, especially the feeling of the rough linen on the body. It's very comfortable."
Xiaobei gave an example.
The children thought that others were really stupid. When they saw that there was a bonfire barbecue, they all began to regret it. They had eaten too much just now.
Xiaobei and the other nine people were happy. They only ate one fish together. After tasting it, they stopped and gave more fish to the local children to eat.
Cuan Mo 'a's son saw his father in the crowd and immediately ran over. He carefully took out a stack of money from his arms and handed it to his father. He said, "Dad, this money is 10,000 strings of cash. Xiaobei gave it to our children."
"You … you …" When Cuan Mo 'a heard that it was 10,000 strings of cash, he reached out to grab it. He suddenly stopped and said to his son, "Since it's for you, keep it well. Don't use it recklessly. When the merchants come to buy things, tell me."
Cuan Mo 'a was very jealous of the 10,000 strings of cash from the Tang Empire. He hoped that he could hold it in his hands. However, when he suddenly remembered what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had said in the forest just now, he felt that he was too stingy to take the money in front of others. You want money given to children by children?
His son seemed to have become more sensible. He said to his father, "Dad, we want to take out a part of it first and let the knowledgeable people of the Tang Empire come over to be our teachers. We'll make some money ourselves and give it to our teachers in the future."
"There's no need for that. We've brought a very good teacher for you. His name is Tan Sicong. You just need to give him a place to live, make the same clothes for him, and eat the same food for him. You don't need to give him any extra money."
Xiaobei thought of a person. He looked around and didn't see him. He sent someone to call him.
Cuan Mo 'a showed a troubled expression. "If a teacher comes to teach the children, it's not right to not give him the best things."
"It's right. He made a mistake. He'll be punished to teach the children. Otherwise, we'll arrange a mine for him to dig. If he dares to not teach you properly, the people left behind by my family will teach him a lesson."
Xiaobei finally arranged for Tan Sicong to come down. There was no place that was more remote than this place. Tubo was better than the local area. It was just right to punish Tan Sicong.
When the whole deer was roasted until it was glistening with oil, Tan Sicong was brought to the bonfire party. He seemed to be in good spirits. The clothes on his body were changed into good cloth, and his face was healthy and rosy.
This showed that no one deliberately mistreated him while he was traveling with the group. Everyone gave him whatever they had.
Tan Sicong already knew that he would be teaching in the local area. When he arrived, he directly went to Xiaobei and didn't look for Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. Along the way, he could tell that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were supportive of most of the decisions made by the nine children. Since he was caught by Xiaobei and the others, they naturally had to take care of him.
"In the future, you have to stay and teach the local children well. Two years. After two years, we'll see how the local children learn. If they learn well, you can go wherever you want. We won't restrict you anymore. Do you agree?"
Xiaobei seemed to be very magnanimous when he said these words. He even asked if Tan Sicong agreed. The children in the tribe immediately looked at Tan Sicong with longing.
Tan Sicong laughed bitterly. "Ha! I'm very happy to be able to impart my knowledge to the children here. As long as I can eat and dress well, it's fine. "
"Nuan, don't worry. It's spring here all year round. I believe that they will provide you with many furs to use as bedding. Most of them are sheepskin. If you want tiger furs …"
"I don't dare. From today onwards, I won't use tiger furs anymore." Tan Sicong was very afraid when he heard the words tiger furs. Wasn't he caught because of a tiger furs?
"Eat the meat, drink the wine, and try the local game." Xiaobei invited.
Tan Sicong looked around and hesitated. He then gathered his courage and squeezed with the people in the tribe. When he saw people, he smiled. The people in the tribe didn't treat Tan Sicong like how Xiaobei treated him. They looked at him with eyes full of respect. When he smiled, the people in the tribe also smiled and echoed his words.
As for what he had done before he was caught by Xiaobei, the people in the tribe didn't care. As long as he was willing to teach his children well, it was fine.
"Oh, there's one more thing." Xiao Bei then shouted to the people around Tan Sicong, "He has the status of a High Scholar. Whether it's teaching children, adults, or life matters, you can all ask him. He's quite capable. In the past few days with us, he's even read a lot of our books."
"High Scholar?" Cuan Mo 'a looked at the king beside him. King Cuan Gui narrowed his eyes and nodded. "He can be considered a capable person. Even in the Tang Empire, not every county has a High Scholar as a teacher. You have to treat him well."
"Yes. Why aren't Xiao Bao and Cuckoo afraid that a capable person will stay in the team?" Cuan Mo 'a felt that it was inconceivable. That child actually gave a High Scholar to his tribe.
"Haha, hahahaha!" King Cuan Gui laughed. The more he laughed, the louder his laughter became. After laughing for a while, he stopped and said to Cuan Mo 'a, "The people brought by Xiao Bao and Cuckoo, any one of the non-combat members is more capable than him. Even the combat members are not inferior to him.
Tell me, is there a need to keep him? Xiao Bao and Cuckoo are both top scorers. They have the status of a High Scholar. When they go to the capital and compete with other High Scholars, the top scorers will be the top scorers. "
Cuan Mo 'a nodded. He understood and envied them.
From this moment on, Tan Si started to receive high treatment. Someone served him sweet wine, and the person who was best at using a knife in the tribe cut meat for him to eat. Every time he took a bite, the person beside him would reveal a smile, looking more comfortable than if he were eating the meat himself.
"Eat, eat. Don't worry about me. I'll do it myself. You … I'm a sinner. I'm not worth it."
He finally realized that there were things more precious than money in this world. He secretly thought that he should set up an education system in the local area first. He should teach every child well. Even if two years had passed, he should not leave early. He had to teach a batch of children.
At the same time, he was very familiar with the way the Zhang Family and Wang Family did things. Every time they stayed in a place, they would definitely guide the development of the local area. This was also an opportunity for him. When there was nothing in the local area, he would stay. When the local area developed, his contributions would not be small.
