Chapter 342: Chapter 200: Teams Reunite and Return! A New Race Appears_4
Watching the communication between the two, Zhou Bai was quite certain something was going on between them, but he didn’t pry and instead asked some detailed questions as he was making preparations for the territory.
Speaking of which, it seemed that Hope Village had already attracted quite a number of territories, and adding another Mercenary Team and Advanced Professionals didn’t seem to make much of a difference.
With that said, the matter was considered settled.
At this moment, O’Neill, who was watching people collecting shells in the lake, couldn’t help but ask, "What are they doing?"
He saw there were Beastmen among them, each scooping up shells with great joy, as if they were picking up money.
Most likely, it was the promise of money that brought such eagerness to the Beastmen.
How could O’Neill miss out on a good money-making opportunity?
Zhou Bai, seeing O’Neill itching to join in, instantly knew what he was thinking and said with a smile, "Shells are an important resource. We’re gathering them here and paying with copper coins and Contribution."
After finishing, he added, "If you want to go, go now! After we’re done collecting, we’re heading back to the territory."
"Alright!" O’Neill immediately agreed and turned to gather his father, wife, and children, "Father, Laura, Ruth, Moli, Penny... Wu Lai, Enoch, Ford, Chad... follow me!"
Following that, O’Neill brought them to Zhou Bai and said, "village chief, these are my family members, just saying hello."
Zhou Bai looked at the line of female Tiger-men and the Tiger-men cubs behind O’Neill and paused, "These are..."
"This is my father, Fork, these are my wives..., and these are the cubs of our family..."
Zhou Bai: "..."
One man with so many wives???
"Lord? What’s wrong?" Seeing Zhou Bai’s changing expression, O’Neill cautiously asked.
"No problem, you go ahead!" Zhou Bai simply replied.
Respect their "social norms," after all!
No wonder O’Neill valued money so much; while others provided for a few, he had dozens to support.
O’Neill chuckled and set off with his family to make money.
And it wasn’t just him; other Beastmen were also eager to get into the lake.
Even the New Beastmen, such as the Sheep-headed Men and Fox Beastmen, joined in upon seeing that Zhou Bai and his companions didn’t object to their participation.
There’s strength in numbers.
With the efforts of six or seven hundred people, the lake was thoroughly stripped of its shells.
Moreover, many got hooked on the activity, not sparing even the lake’s stones.
After all, these pebbles were in demand in the territory as well.
Once everyone had finished collecting, they each went to Zhou Bai to settle their accounts. free𝑤ebnovel.com
When Dean and the other New Beastmen finished their tallying and received quite a few silver coins, their hearts truly raced with excitement.
They had never expected that they could actually earn money in Human Territory.
It must be said, this gesture instantly won over the hearts of the group of New Beastmen.
No matter what others said, receiving money from Humans was the most tangible proof.
This firmly established one thing.
Humans had rules for their interaction with Beastmen; having rules meant they wouldn’t be unjustly treated!
After settling the accounts, Zhou Bai began to organize the group for their journey home.
But this time, unlike their previous self-sustained efforts, under Zhou Bai’s leadership, the entire group was dining together, including the Sheep-headed Men and Fox Beastmen.
They too savored the flavors that had tantalized them along the road.
Indeed... it was excellent!
"Glen, I feel like this Human Territory might actually be quite good," Fox Beastman Thomas said to Glen after closely observing the entire group.
Some subconscious behaviors are hard to hide.
Like the way Human Professionals were instinctively gentle with the young Sheep-headed Men, and even gave them snacks—though one could overlook the fond head stroking.
From this, it was evident that these Humans were genuinely treating the Beastmen well.
Glen nodded in acknowledgment.
Actually, after seeing how Lucas and the others explained the situation to Zhou Bai and were praised instead of scolded, she had felt that this Human Territory was truly different from what she expected.
However, reason also told her to wait and learn more.
Even the Fox Beastmen felt this way, and the favored Sheep-headed Men even more so.
Following at the rear of the group, they seemed less resistant to the idea of heading to this Human Territory!
