Text Chapter 4 Magical Gold Coins

Although Xiao Lin knew that the white colonists in the early stage were all hooligans, gangsters, and mercenaries who couldn't get along, he didn't know that these people's contempt and hostility towards the Indians had reached such a strong level. The day after Xiao Lin and Sai Qunxiong returned to the tribe, the people of the Eagle tribe clashed with the colonists. The cause of this incident was that a young warrior of the tribe had the good fortune of catching a deer with a trap, enough to feed three people for two days.

As a result, the young warriors of the tribe, while collecting their prey, were robbed by the pioneers. They took the young warrior's prey and beat him so badly that, according to the young warrior, he might have been stabbed to death by the pioneers with strange spears had he not been stopped by a young man. Xiao Lin took out his first aid kit and helped the young warrior heal his wounds so he could get out of bed the next day.

These pioneers are in a flat field six kilometers away from the tribe. They set up a lot of tents here, usually most of the people went to cut down trees to build houses, while some of the people with weapons searched the area for prey, so that the food they brought would not be eaten early. It's just that this five-kilometer radius is the hunting range of the Eagle Tribe, and the hunting range of their two sides overlaps. In this way, the conflict between the pioneers and the Eagle tribe cannot be avoided again.

If it were a warrior of the Eagle Tribe, he would definitely want to kill all these pioneers. But Sholin is different, if Sholin wants to establish his own empire on the American continent, then at least some industrialization must be completed, at least, it must have the ability to manufacture single-shot rifles on a large scale. The Indians were fine as warriors and farmers, but if they wanted to be workers and good merchants, the cost and effort were lost. But these Europeans are different, they are at least people who came out of civilized society, even if they were not workers before, even if most people are not even as educated as junior high school students now, but it is still possible to be a front-line worker, after all, it is impossible for Sholin to build an empire by throwing things on both sides on his own.

The Eagle Tribe is not a tribe that swallows its anger, and although the scale of the warriors of three hundred people cannot defeat those medium-sized and large tribes, it can still be the king and dominate in the small tribes. There are only more than 300 enemies, and there are only a few dozen warriors, and this kind of strength can only be regarded as weak for the Eagle Tribe. In this way, the Eagle Tribe decided to declare war on these pioneers. If it weren't for Sholin, the Eagle Tribe might not have been able to defeat the pioneers, and it only took thirty warriors armed with flintlock pistols to bring these primitive-weaponized Indians to collapse.

However, the Eagle Tribe now had a powerful compound bow with an effective range of one hundred and fifty meters, and a steel knife capable of breaking through iron armor, and Xiao Lin was able to foresee the fate of these pioneers. Either they were slaughtered by the Eagle Tribe, or someone was watching to let the civilians escape. Xiao Lin calculated for a while, and the things he brought these days had also sold a third, which was already considered to be a profit. Xiao Lin planned to continue to sell half of the remaining two-thirds of the goods as goods, and the other half as a reward, so that the Eagle Tribe would capture these pioneers and use them as his slaves.

A war that was originally waged in anger not only did not get anything good, but also sacrificed some soldiers. But as soon as Xiao Lin did this, as long as they stopped it during the battle, they could get the magic weapon in Xiao Lin's hand, and the Eagle Tribe was happy to die. The Eagle even offered to provide warriors to help keep Sholin in mind when he said he didn't have that many men to take care of the slaves, as long as Sholin paid him.

Xiao Lin had already negotiated a price with the Eagle Patriarch, including the cost of hiring a warrior to take care of it. An adult white man plus a child can get a steel knife, five adult men can get a compound bow if they have three, and an old man needs five for a knife and ten for a bow. The main reason for offering such a high price to the old man was to prevent the tribal warriors from killing too many of the pioneers' family members, so that it would not be difficult to buy them later to gain their loyalty.

Sholin hired Eagle Tribe warriors to guard his slaves, a steel knife for two days and a composite bow for five days. Sholin wanted to buy the food that the slaves needed, and the food for a hundred people a day was a set of compound bows and a steel knife to keep them from dying. In these few days, Xiao Lin can afford the survival of these slaves by himself, you know, in modern society, instant noodles wholesale a piece of five-day packs, Xiao Lin can manage instant noodles for a long time with a piece of beaver skin.

After negotiating the price, Xiao Lin was not in a hurry to return to modern society. On the one hand, it is not yet known how many white slaves he can catch, and on the other hand, he also wants to wait for most of the goods to be sold and return to modern society with more good things. The compound bows and steel knives he had made before had brought hope to the workers and his mother, but they had almost exhausted the last bit of old money, and if they didn't go back with more money and business, the more than 50 workers in the entire factory who had been following the Xiao family would also be very disappointed.

Besides, Shoren also wanted to see if these Indians could be qualified soldiers, and if not, he would have to give up these people and risk using white men to form an army. On the fourth day, the Eagle Tribe sent a force of 200 people, and the Eagle Patriarch was not a hot-blooded idiot, in order to ensure victory, he asked the tribesmen to mine frantically in the past two days, and bought all the 200 steel weapons that Xiao Lin took out to sell. Xiao Lin asked Pearl to help watch his harvest, in Pearl's opinion, she will be Xiao Lin's person in the future, and these things will be his belongings in the future, although I don't know what the yellow stone is good about, but it is also his own thing, and these things will not be lost.

It was early in the morning when the Eagle tribe came, and as for night blindness, the Indians were rare. The variety of fruits and vegetables on the American continent made these Indians, who did not only eat meat, good at night warfare. The Eagle Tribe used to fight with other tribes, and many times it was also at night. At this time, the colonists were basically still asleep, and only a dozen people were keeping vigil.

Within a few days, the pioneers had erected a fence and three watchtowers. They knew what they were dealing with, and many of the Indians' bows and arrows had a range of less than eighty meters, and the robbers, even with flintlock muskets, had a range of less than a hundred meters. So, these watchtowers are built just a hundred meters from the woods. They didn't expect that in this way, the current Eagle Tribe warriors would be able to directly name them in the dark.
