Although many of the goods had been taken away by the ten teams of hundreds of people, the pile of goods did not seem to have decreased much. It was still standing in the middle of the Lakota tribe like a small mountain.
The original tents in the tribe could not accommodate the mountainous pile of goods at all. Chief Geronimo simply led his people to cut down trees. It took them three days to finally set up a dozen large tents and store the hundreds of cubic meters of goods.
The departure of the warriors who had been guarding the tribe did not make the people of the tribe feel uneasy. Not to mention the powerful god and his ferocious subordinates, the two ferocious humanoid beasts who could kill dozens of armed men alone were still protecting them in the tribe. Just the large number of advanced firearms that Chen Mo had given them was enough for them to protect the tribe.
The targets of these purchasing teams had been planned long ago. Excluding the tribes that Chen Mo had been to recently, the remaining tribes were distributed according to distance. Each team only needed to advance in one direction, and there was no need to take detours. It was very efficient.
The next day, a team took the lead and returned with furs that were much larger than the goods they had brought when they left.
When ten huge furry figures that were more than two meters tall, nearly three meters tall, and one meter wide appeared outside the tribe, the people in charge of guarding the tribe almost shot an arrow. His companions beside him had already begun to reload their guns and were ready to shoot.
After living in the forest for so many years, they knew how aggressive the grizzly bears were. Moreover, their tribe had just killed a huge grizzly bear some time ago and injured several people. This time, a group of grizzly bears appeared all of a sudden. How could they not be shocked? Even the two ferocious humanoid beasts were probably no match for the ten or so huge grizzly bears that were nearly three meters tall.
However, when they thought of Chen Mo who was in charge of the tribe and the powerful firearms in each of their hands, they quickly calmed down and were not as panicked as they were at the beginning.
"We're back!"
Just as they were about to shout a warning and call their people to come and destroy the group of grizzly bears, the "grizzly bear" on the opposite side suddenly spoke.
The few people in charge of guarding the tribe took a closer look and realized that at the bottom of the ten huge furry figures, it was one of the purchasing teams that had just left yesterday.
It turned out that those were not grizzly bears at all, but purchasing team members who were carrying too many furs.
The few tribes that this purchasing team was assigned to were not too far away from the Lakota tribe. They were very close to each other, so they quickly completed the transaction and rushed back.
Just like before, the goods that Chen Mo had prepared for the transaction were far more attractive than those provided by the American Fur Company. The people who came to trade were also Native Americans, and the price was very fair............ Almost every tribe took out all their accumulated furs to trade with them........................
..............................................................................................
In short, the fur trade this time was exceptionally smooth.
After resting in the tribe for a day, this purchasing team carried their backpacks again and continued to the other tribes for the next transaction.
After the first purchasing team returned, the second one to return was not the entire purchasing team that had completed the transaction. It was a young man from the Lakota tribe who had just reached adulthood. He was also a member of the ten purchasing teams.
"Chief, we found a purchasing team from the American Fur Company!"
…
In the Native American tent that was specially prepared for him, Chen Mo received the news from Chief Geronimo.
Without waiting for Chen Mo to speak, Viktor and James had already stood up impatiently and looked at Chen Mo with burning eyes. Their two little faces were full of anticipation.
Chen Mo was speechless when he saw this. Viktor was fine, but he did not know when it started, but the timid and gentle James had also become belligerent. When he heard that he could participate in a battle, his eyes lit up. Was this his wild instinct that was awakened after he awakened his ability, or was he influenced by Chen Mo?
No matter what, this was the main purpose of him sending out the purchasing team. Although the strength of the two had improved a lot compared to when they first arrived, there was still a lot of room for improvement. They still needed to go through a lot of battles and continue to improve during the battles.
After this period of observation, Chen Mo had a bold guess. The improvement of Viktor and James' strength seemed to have a lot to do with their self-healing ability.
To be precise, the more serious the injuries they suffered during the battle, the greater the improvement of their physical fitness after the battle was over and they recovered from their injuries.
It seemed that the self-healing ability was not only healing their injuries, but also strengthening their strength at the same time.
However, this did make sense.
It was the same for ordinary people to train their bodies and increase their strength.
In the process of training, muscle fibers would be damaged, but after enough rest and nutrition, these damaged muscle fibers would be repaired and regenerated. At the same time, they would become thicker and stronger than before.
It was the same for bones as well. People who practiced martial arts often used their fists to hit sandbags or wooden stakes. The bones in the areas that received the force would be slightly damaged, but after the damage was repaired, they would become thicker and harder than before.
If one were to observe the fists of martial arts practitioners, they would find that their finger bones and joints were obviously much thicker and harder than ordinary people. If an ordinary person used their fists to hit a brick, they would likely break it, but martial arts practitioners could easily shatter it without any damage.
In other words, it was a process of destruction, regeneration, and strengthening.
However, the process of "destruction, regeneration, and strengthening" for ordinary people was limited by their own "regeneration" ability. They had to control the "destruction" within a certain range. Once the degree of "destruction" was not controlled well and exceeded the limit of "regeneration", it would cause harm to the body. This was what people often called "training injuries".
Therefore, the speed at which ordinary people "strengthened" their bodies through training was very slow.
Moreover, this process of "destruction, regeneration, and strengthening" was only manifested in the skin, muscles, and bones. Once the internal organs and nerves were injured, it would be very difficult for them to recover to their original state. Not only would they not be strengthened, but they would also be weakened!
