CHAPTER 554: CHAPTER 540: GRAND LEADER 58 FOUR THOUSAND WORDS_2

As for the fact that Yan Shuangshuang was here to save people, the man never considered it. Although the man was a member of the Cannibal Clan, it didn’t mean he was unaware that other tribes, while not consuming human flesh, weren’t particularly empathetic either.

The man had seen many Great Tribes. He had never seen a tribe that would rescue people from their Cannibal Tribe’s hands. Sometimes, when the Cannibal Tribe was chasing others, people from Great Tribes would pretend they hadn’t seen anything, completely afraid to offend them.

Without suspicion, the man raised five fingers at Yan Shuangshuang, flipping them twice—once meaning five and twice meaning ten. After stating his price, the man said, "I only want this number of Stone Axes, nothing else, and they must be well-polished, made of good stones."

Yan Shuangshuang frowned. She was reluctant to give weapons to these Cannibal Tribe people. But without weapons, the other side certainly wouldn’t sell the people to her. Yan Shuangshuang reluctantly nodded, "No problem, I’ll go get the Stone Axes now. Leave the living flesh to me; I want to take them away alive."

"No problem, I just won’t continue selling these people." The man was unsurprised by Yan Shuangshuang’s request. When their tribe captured too much living flesh, they would feed it with vegetarian food, eating and killing at will. If they killed all at once, not only would they be unable to preserve it, but it might all spoil, which would be a pity.

Securing the man’s promise, Yan Shuangshuang tried to remain calm as she turned to leave, then returned to the Yanhuang Tribe as quickly as possible.

At this moment, Yanhuang Tribe was surrounded by a large crowd, all here to buy Sweet Potato. Yan was enthusiastically attending to customers, and after gaining strength during this time, Yan’s verbal skills had become incredibly smooth, mastering the try-before-you-buy Skills without guidance.

Sweet Potato was delicious and tasty, sweet but not greasy, with a chewy texture. It was most suitable for slow chewing as a snack, and it also provided a strong feeling of satiety.

Those who could come to the Mutual Market were from large or medium-sized tribes, very much food-secure, essentially small and large tycoons, naturally willing to spend money on desired items.

Yan Shuangshuang couldn’t spare attention for the greetings of Mang Mountain, Da Shi, Feicao, and others, rushing to rummage through the Stone Axes everyone had brought.

Though the tribe’s people now used Scale Armor Knife and long thorns as weapons, they habitually brought Stone Axes, so finding ten Stone Axes was easy for Yan Shuangshuang.

Holding the Stone Axes, Yan Shuangshuang hesitated again, but then decided to take two shells filled with salt. Salt was even more luxurious than weapons, and before coming, everyone brought several shells of salt to ensure they had enough money to buy what they liked.

Each shell contained about five pounds of salt, a substantial quantity, enough to exchange for four axes. Yan Shuangshuang was worried that taking too much would attract attention, although she even considered trading entirely with salt for the people from the Cannibal Tribe.

However, trading salt with a tribe like the Cannibal Tribe was inherently risky. If the Cannibal Tribe got into their lair, it would be a big problem. But Yan Shuangshuang didn’t want to give the weapons, so she could only use salt for the trade.

Yanhuang Tribe people watched Yan Shuangshuang rummaging for Stone Axes and taking salt, perplexed by what she was doing. Yan Shuangshuang didn’t keep it a secret, directly explaining her plan to buy back the people captured by the Cannibal Tribe.

Everyone was outraged hearing this! Whether the Power Tribe or Lanshan Tribe, none of them had not suffered losses to the Cannibal Tribe. Hearing the Cannibal Tribe was butchering and selling living people like livestock, everyone’s anger flared.

Only Yu discerned Yan Shuangshuang’s true intention. After a brief pause, Yu asked Yan Shuangshuang, "Shuangshuang, are you planning to rescue these people captured by the Cannibal Tribe and incorporate them into our Yanhuang Tribe?"

Yan Shuangshuang nodded. That was precisely her intention. These people, treated as living flesh, surely had a shattered home with tribes that no longer existed. Now, Yan Shuangshuang could buy them, allowing them to join Yanhuang Tribe without any worries.

Moreover, to these people, destined for doom, Yan Shuangshuang was their savior. Integrating them into Yanhuang Tribe ensured their loyalty and seeing themselves as part of the tribe.

This world’s people are simple-minded with no hidden agendas. Though there are evil ones like the Cannibal Tribe, whom everyone hates with gritted teeth, most people are honest, not turning against benefactors, understanding gratitude.
