Chapter 234 Talking about cooperation
After Chen Dong took out all the gifts to the Fire Department, several chiefs who were attached to the Fire Department arrived in a hurry, about six or seven people.
It is actually very obvious that the boundaries between several other tribes can be seen around the Fire Tribe. The places where those tribes live are not very far from the Fire Tribe. It can be seen that a lot of neat arable land has been cultivated around these tribes.
Chen Dong had never seen anyone busy on the arable land along the way. This shows that the fire department had already figured out the season for growing grains. Now it is indeed no longer suitable to plant grains.
After the chiefs of those tribes arrived, they first greeted the chief of the Fire Tribe, and then greeted Chen Dong. Except for the chief of the Tu tribe, the chiefs of the tribes were nothing unusual, as if the attack on Chen State had nothing to do with them.
If Chen's scout had not found out the news, Chen Dong would have been deceived by them. These people were quite capable of pretending.
Chen Dong smiled faintly at the tribe chiefs who greeted him, but he only had something strange to the chiefs of the Tu tribe. He went up and patted the chiefs of the Tu tribe on the shoulder a few times, but just smiled at him, without saying much else.
After returning from Chen State, the Chief of the Tu tribe must have already told the Fire Tribe and several other chiefs about his experience in Chen State. Chen Dong's actions not only embarrassed the Chief of the Tu tribe, but also the other chiefs were quite embarrassed.
It was Chen Dong who first resolved the embarrassment. He smiled indifferently and said, "Since several chiefs have arrived, we should talk about the main business."
The Chief of Fire Reaction first responded and then said, "Yes, yes, let's sit all!"
In fact, if Chen Dong wanted to say something about the Chief of the Tu tribe, he would have said it long ago and would not have waited until now.
Don’t do bad things and don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. This is a typical manifestation of doing bad things and doing bad things.
After several tribal chiefs sat down, the Fire Chief spoke first. After all, the Fire Chief is the host and the minds of these chiefs, of course he has to support the overall situation.
"Today, King Ping came to seek cooperation with my Fire Tribe. These are the greetings brought by King Ping to my Fire Tribe and several tribes."
The reason why these tribes are willing to obey the orders of the Fire Tribe is that they can share any good things with other tribes. When Chen Dong gave these things to the Fire Tribe, he did not say that he would give them to other tribes, but he was able to generously give the things given to other tribes that Chen Dong gave to other tribes.
Since Chen Dong has given these things to the Fire Department, the final right to belong is naturally the Chief of the Fire Department.
People have never seen these things Chen Dong has ever seen, and they are curious. Several tribal chiefs studied these things again before they began to discuss cooperation.
Before Chen Dong came, he had already taken into account all the issues that could be considered, so he was naturally not in a hurry. On such matters, if anyone is anxious, then it would increase the risk of losing the chess game.
After those tribe chiefs visited the things Chen Dong brought, the chief of the Fire Tribe continued to say, "The cooperation of King Ping is very simple, and they just have to trade with each other. Exchange means exchanging things from both sides."
After explaining what he understood and the tribe chiefs, the Chief of Fire again asked Chen Dong if it was correct.
Chen Dong's explanation was quite long-winded, but after the Chief of the Fire Tribe understood what Chen Dong explained, he could explain it to the chiefs of other tribes in a few words.
Chen Dong was a little impressed by the Chief of Fire Department’s explanation, “Yes, that’s it, it’s good!”
After the Chief of the Fire Tribe explained, someone first raised the question, "King Ping, I'm afraid that everything my tribe has can't be exchanged for your Chen Kingdom's things, right?"
Although this person was the first to ask Chen Dong for trouble, what this person said was undoubtedly a affirmation of Chen State. His meaning was very obvious. The things from several tribes together were not qualified to exchange for a thing from Chen State.
Chen Guo did this obviously a loss.
When you feel that the transaction is unfair and you have taken a huge advantage, don’t rush to be happy first. First, think about whether you have jumped into the pit that others have dug for you when you are reaping huge returns.
This person obviously has this kind of awareness.
Chen Dong smiled and said, "That's true, but you can pay a few times. If not, you can exchange it with labor!"
Labor is definitely a new term for these people. Chen Dong then explained: "For example, if you want these swords from my State of Chen, then you can send some people to work in my State of Chen. After the work is done, you will take away the weapons you deserve."
"Is this possible?"
After Chen Dong finished speaking, the tribe chiefs were full of disbelief. For them, they still took advantage of this.
At this time, the material conditions were too scarce, and you could get something by just working hard, which was almost the same as a pie falling from the sky.
In Chen Dong's eyes, what is most scarce at this time is manpower. As long as there are people in Chen's wealth and strength, it is just around the corner. There is so much land under the world, and as long as there are people going to farm, will you still worry about being rich?
After Chen Dong finished speaking, several tribal chiefs had already started discussing in front of Chen Dong.
No matter what the chief of the tribe said, Chen Dong listened with a smile. He would never interrupt rashly when they discussed. It would be extremely impolite to interrupt rashly, let alone, this is an external matter, and there is no qualification to Chen Dong to interrupt casually.
After the discussions between the chiefs of those tribes ended, Chen Dong said: "As long as you are willing, there is nothing here in Chen. If you don't believe it, you can do it from now on."
Finally, the Chief of the Fire Tribe made a decision and said, "Okay, since King Ping is sincere, then my tribes naturally can't say anything. This matter will be settled!"
As for what the first cooperation was, we did not discuss it in detail immediately. Then we mentioned the topic of the Chen family army and the Young Army.
From the news brought by the Chief of the Tude tribe, they probably already knew the power of the Chen family and the Young Army. Now the Chen family and the Young Army are right in front of them. They want to see the strength of the two armies, which is a blessing to feast their eyes.
Even though the Fire Tribe and other tribes now have bronze weapons, there is still no idea of separation of farmers and soldiers here. When the tribe is in danger or the tribe needs to expand outward, all the old and young men will act together. During the busy farming period, everyone has to put down their weapons and go to the field to work.
During the war, the whole people were soldiers, and during the busy farming period, the whole people were farmers.
Naturally, among the tribes, there was no one among them who had the qualities of the Chen family's Junior Army. In addition to being afraid, the Young Army and the Chen family were also envious.
In the Fire Tribe and other tribes, some people began to domesticate some wild animals in the forest earlier. The domestication of the forest is actually closely related to the development of agriculture, which actually takes a long process.
If there is food to eat in the tribe, some wild animals caught in the forest will inevitably be raised when they cannot be eaten. These wild animals are kept in captivity from generation to generation. Over time, their ambitions will naturally disappear slowly.
Although the time for the Fire Department to plant grain was longer than that of Chen State, he tamed wild animals according to normal natural laws, and the result was naturally not as fast as that of Chen State.
Chen Dong came from later generations. He learned that those wild beasts can be directly domesticated and have some experience in domestication and captivity. The result of domestication is naturally faster than that of the Fire Tribe.
