Wolf King

Compared with the harsh winter on the grassland, Valentine in deep winter is as peaceful and peaceful as someone's back garden. At least for the Tiger Clan, the winter here is not at all threatening.

I lived in the spacious big house of the Knight's Mansion for one night. When I woke up the next day and opened the door, the snow outside the house could only cover my ankles, and couldn't even reach my calves.

"The human world is a good place." Yale couldn't help but feel envious. If it was changed to the grassland, the snow would not exceed the height of the knees when he got up early and went out one day, then it would mean that spring would be back soon.

"...But the dense forest is similar to here, only a little colder than here, but there are more trees."

Yale looked up at the courtyard of Isaac's house, only to the outside of the courtyard wall at the height of his chest, there were stretches of buildings and streets.

Yale spit out white mist, and his eyes showed envy again... This territory of human knights is not much more than that of the king's court when the tiger tribe was prosperous.

"Such a weak human knight can also have such a place. Is this the gap between the human world and the grassland?"

Yale stepped up to the wall and looked at the street outside the Knight's Mansion.

Compared with the Tiger King's Court, the houses here are much smaller. Looking at the closed low wooden doors, Yale suspects that if the Tigers are not careful when they walk in, they may bump their heads.

Although small, the houses of the Terran are exquisite.The roof is covered with dense tiles, the wooden doors are tightly stitched together, and even the pavement used for walking is patiently spelled out simple patterns with stone bricks.

There are figures of human activities on the street, and several human races with brooms and shovels are clearing the snow along the street.

In Yale's eyes, those human races are very weak, as weak as the little babies of the tiger clan. Even such a "gentle" cold wind can make their cheeks turn white and their lips tremble. He breathed out on his frozen hands.

Such a weak human being, if it is on the grassland, it will be difficult to survive the winter.

Looking at those humans, Yale couldn't help thinking of the "Snow Wolf Clan Ayun" he had heard the most during this period of time.

The human mage who went to the dense forest to find the Tiger Clan was invited by Ayun.

The Bolton collar they passed by was also under the care of Ayun and provided them with board and lodging and saw them off all the way.

And this knight leader, also because Ayun of the Snow Wolf Clan wanted to do business with them, provided the Tiger Clan with shelter, food, and prepaid "battle tree payment".

Yesterday, after Cavalier Isaac Robbins explained the details of the transaction with Yale, he first took Yale to see the materials that the Snow Wolf Clan had prepared to prepay for them—more than half of the warehouse, tens of tons of flour , jerky, vermicelli, jar-packed sauces, blankets, ready-made clothes, quilts, etc.

It is not purely exchanging food for the stems and leaves of the battle tree fruit with the Tiger Clan, but including daily necessities such as sauces and clothing. Yale has no objection to this at all...

The wealth saved by Wang Ting has been almost exhausted over the past year, and the remaining part of Tiger King was let him take away, only the two boxes of gold he left for the veteran Harry.

To allow more than 3000 tribesmen to take root in the unfamiliar unbounded jungle and thrive, these two boxes of gold reserves are not enough—at least Yale does not plan to use them in the short term.

"Unknowingly, the Snow Wolf Clan has become so rich..." Yale sighed silently, "They are obviously poorer than the Cat Clan, but suddenly they can get a lot of supplies, which can make such a There are many people who work for them...they are different from our Tiger Clan—”

Thinking of this, Yale's expression changed.

He's not stupid, and it's not that he doesn't understand the difference between the Tiger Clan and the Snow Wolf Clan.

When the Tiger Clan regarded the Centaur and the Cat Clan as consumable slaves, the Snow Wolf Clan was willing to trade them an equal weight of food for the Centaur, and specifically specified that even the disabled and diseased ones were needed.

A weak race that the Tiger Clan looks down on, and the Snow Wolf Clan actively befriends them.

In the Southern Continent across the inner sea, so many people are willing to do things for the Snow Wolf Clan.

Yale seemed to understand something, but he didn't understand it very deeply, but he felt a little blocked in his heart.

The group of humans who cleared the snow from the streets came near the Knights' Mansion, looked excitedly at Yale who was separated by a wall, and greeted warmly: "Good morning, master of the orc clan!"

Yale was stunned for a moment, realizing that these human races were greeting him with a dazed expression.

"You look really strong, stronger than a snow werewolf, what kind of orc are you?" A young man leaned over curiously holding a broom.

"..." The corner of Yale's mouth twitched, he couldn't tell what mood he was in, "Tiger Clan."

"Ah, so it's the Tiger Clan. Tigers are much more powerful than wolves, so the Tiger Clan must be stronger than the Snow Wolf Clan, right?" The young man became energetic immediately, "Masters of the Tiger Clan, do you also know how to play ball? Are the Snowwolves more powerful?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Someone teased the young man unhappily, "The snow wolves must have played the game best. Last time, the bears didn't play as well as the snow wolves."

"How can the tiger clan be the same as the bear clan? Tigers are much more agile than bears. That bear clan is too bulky, and a few knights from the neighboring territorial team can hold him back." The young man retorted immediately, and his eyes sparkled To Yale, "Right, Lord Tiger Clan?"

Yale: "??"

"Hey, don't harass the guests of the Knight's Mansion!"

When Alex came over early in the morning, he saw a group of cleaners standing in front of the Tiger Clan chattering from afar, and hurriedly shouted to stop them.

The boys sweeping the snow immediately dispersed...

Alex yelled at those boys for a while, then turned his head in embarrassment: "Good morning, sir, please don't mind those boys talking nonsense."

Yale: "...don't mind."

Can he say that he didn't understand at all...

Alex is not the kind of serious and rigid character. In fact, if Isaac hadn't held his head to teach him to be good and whipped him from time to time, this guy might have gone on the route of abandoning treatment long ago; so, face to face He wasn't at all as serious as Isaac was with Tiger Clan guests.

The guy pushed the door into the yard, said polite words, rolled his eyes, and looked Yale up and down.

Yale: "..."

If it weren't for the fact that this skinny human race is too weak, Yale might have already slapped him with his paw in his rude way of looking at people.

The orc tribe does not lack big men, not to mention the tauren who do not walk outside, the python tribe, bear tribe, elephant tribe, and lion tribe in the snake tribe have no shortage of giants against the sky, not to mention the snow wolf tribe that Yali sees more.

But compared with these big races, the tiger clan is still quite unique: their equally strong muscle mass does not grow wantonly, but presents a very explosive and smooth line; broad shoulders and back, arms Slightly longer in proportion to the waist, it can be seen at a glance that it has a strong frontal collision ability and amazing upper body strength.

The so-called "tiger back and bear waist", there is no doubt about the majesty of the tiger's shoulders and arms, and the development of upper body strength.

With Alex's professional eyesight, he has no doubt that the cold-faced old man in front of him can throw a man of two hundred catties several meters away from the cliff without any special force.

As a result, the guy's eyes became more and more startlingly bright, and he even swallowed at Yale.

"..." Yale felt a chill coming over him, the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end, and he subconsciously narrowed his dangerous golden vertical pupils.

Alex didn't realize that the danger was approaching, and he took half a step forward, with a look of hunger on his face: "Hey, buddy, are you interested in earning some extra money? The salary is guaranteed to satisfy you."

Yale: "??"

After Isaac finished washing, he went out of the room to greet the guests in good spirits, and saw that stinky boy Alex mixed in with the tiger tribe, jumping around like a nimble little mouse.

Isaac: "??"

"Isaac, I have a good idea!" Alex found a good friend, and jumped on Isaac's face, chattering for a while.

Isaac still looked like a strict father who was about to find a coach to beat this guy up. After hearing Alex's coquettish thoughts, his eyeballs became more and more rounded.

In the past, Alex suggested that Isaac should slap him and press his dog's head to force him to reflect; but after accepting Xiao Yun's "absolute pragmatism" style of brainwashing , although Isaac was full of resistance in his heart, he still nodded, and a set of operation modes immediately popped up in his mind...

So Yale, who was confused by Alex, finally understood what these human races wanted to do after negotiating with Isaac.

So Yale was once again in a daze.

The two account holders were equally confused.

After a difficult communication and a thorough understanding of the benefits that the Tiger Clan can gain from this cooperation and the manpower that needs to be paid, Yale & 26 Tiger Clan fighters all shook their bodies together again.

Bread can still be eaten between sandwiches - no, there is still such a way to make money and support the tribe? !

...No wonder they are ignorant.The Tiger Clan is actually the most knowledgeable clan among the grassland tribes. When the Snow Wolf Clan was still feasting on wind, dew, hair and blood, they did business with the Lamia Chamber of Commerce and the Dark Elf Mistress, and they knew how to open the gates of the royal court. Welcome adventurers of all races.

If it wasn't for the emergence of Xiao Yun, a different kind, if it wasn't for the Tiger King's wrong bet, or if it wasn't for the Beast Emperor's old cunt, he wouldn't be able to hold back his fart; the Tiger Clan would be able to operate steadily and steadily, maybe decades or a hundred years later, they would really be able to manage a piece of land. Heaven and earth come.

But just as it is difficult for people in the era of brick-and-mortar stores to understand the business model of e-commerce, the Tiger Clan, who have only thought about saving money and materials by all means for more than ten years, have no idea that the market of "spiritual consumption" also has huge potential...

The tiger warriors who planned to drag their supplies and pick up the fighting tree seeds and return to the boundless jungle stayed for another day. During this day, 27 big cats squatted in the room to discuss the olive branch extended to them by the human knight Isaac. do not answer.

After discussion and discussion, including Yale, they really couldn't see that taking over this "part-time job" would do any serious harm to the Tiger Clan; so when the Tiger Clan set off home on the third day, the group of big cats... ...Willing to refuse and welcome, shy and timid, half pushing and half on the spot...Leaving behind ten soldiers.

Alex smiled, and immediately volunteered to take the ten Tiger Clan warriors and ran non-stop to the capital of the Kingdom of Cronin——Prince Maurice, a big client, must be taken care of first!

Saier, the leader of the centaur express, came back from the border of the kingdom in the wind and snow. When Isaac said that the Tiger Clan sent ten fighters to join the "Warball Sports Foreign Aid Club" he founded, he sprayed on the spot.

The enmity between the centaur and the tiger clan is not an exaggeration to say that there is a bloody enmity.The entire ethnic group was tortured by the Tiger Clan, leaving only a few hundred people lingering. The hatred in their hearts is higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea.

After receiving Xiao Yun's letter and knowing that the Tiger Clan was smashed to pieces by the Beast Emperor and abandoned their kings and guards, only two or 3000 people "defected" in embarrassment, Saier first laughed for 5 minutes and then cried for 5 minutes.

It's a pity that I can't take revenge with my own hands, but knowing that the tiger clan is disabled and the tiger king is dead, Sale still has a big stone in his heart, and the whole person is much more cheerful-the centaur clan, especially the Bloomfield continent. One, has never been rich, and naturally does not have the kind of pride that has to smash the enemy to ashes in order to have a clear idea.

The young and strong centaur are running errands to make money at Cronin's side, and the old and weak are still under the care of the Snow Wolf Clan in the Fire Department. Xiao Yun also regards them as his own, and there is no concealment in the letter to Saier, telling him bluntly. They plan to develop the Tiger Clan into a downstream raw material producer, tie the Tiger Clan to the Huoyanbu plastic products industry with the economy, and achieve the goal of subtly domesticating this group of dangerous big cats.

Xiao Yun also analyzed the benefits of doing this to Sale, and there are two in total:

One is that this group of big cats who have enslaved and plundered other tribes are indeed quite dangerous. If they are allowed to roam around in the Southern Continent, they will cause endless harm—the Western Continent is the territory of the Dwarf King, and it is unlikely that these guys will run over— —It's better to keep them in captivity, at least the danger of them running wild can be controlled.

Two, it is to let these guys find a way out outside, so that they don't have the thought of returning to the grassland.

The grasslands are vast and sparsely populated, and thousands of dangerous big cats fled back. How can we peace-loving grassland tribes farm with peace of mind? !

So, Xiao Yun told Saier very quickly that the benefits of the tiger clan staying outside obediently outweigh the disadvantages for all grassland tribes.

As long as it is confirmed that the tiger clan has stabilized and settled down outside, he will immediately ask Yu to lead people to copy the royal court, bring back all the gray dwarves and cat clan captured by the tiger clan, and enrich the labor force for the Huoyan Department...

No matter how deeply enmity and great hatred cannot be understood, after reading the bottom line in Xiao Yun's letter, Saier calmed down—the root of the centaur is on the grassland, so that the mortal enemy will never have a chance to return to the grassland, Saier is very happy from the bottom of his heart, At least descendants of centaurs will never have to repeat the nightmares they experienced.

Now when Isaac mentioned that the Tiger Clan fighters came to earn money for "foreign aid", Sale was still in the mood to laugh: "Are these arrogant guys bowing their heads so much now?"

Isaac also laughed: "I dare not make such a suggestion to those vicious guys, it's all because of Alex."

"Alex dares to think about it." Saier said happily, "I remember that a basketball team can only invite two foreign players from different races. Do you and Viscount Pope's team also invite Tiger Clan?"

"Of course not. Our team's quota has been finalized. There are two foreign players, one from the Bear family and one from the Octopus family." Isaac said, "The Bear family is not flexible enough, but they have strong waist and legs, and they perform best in defense. The Octopus family members Six arms is just right for a running back, not a replacement for a Tiger player."

After a pause, Isaac added: "It's only half a year away from next year's summer league. Training for one year is not the same as training for half a year."

When the centaurs were in the Fire Department, they often watched the snow wolves play warball. Saier thought this "game" was very lively, but he didn't think it was particularly good-looking... After all, this sport is not suitable for centaurs, so they naturally pay attention to it. .

"If there is a polo game, we centaurs can also show it? It's a pity that in the past few months, Cronin has talked about the game more and more, and I haven't heard any human beings talking about polo." Sale It's a pity.

Isaac smiled awkwardly and politely, don't make trouble, there are many races that can play ball games, and in polo, who the hell can compete with your centaurs? It's a fart match.

"By the way, Sale, there is a practice match tomorrow. Philip's team is here to warm up with our Valentine's team. If you are not in a hurry to go back to the grassland, come and take a look."

"Tomorrow...is it morning or afternoon?"

"afternoon."

"Okay, save a seat for us, and we'll hurry up and finish the end-of-year summary in the morning."

"Hey, your courier team hasn't finished the year-end summary yet?"

"Isn't it? Who told the earl to add another big order? After running for more than a month, the muddy road soaked in snow is difficult to walk to death..."

After several "surprise" encounters in the past half a year, the people of the Knights were finally not scared by the centaur and ran away, and they were even able to watch the game and watch the drama together, which is gratifying.

On the grassland, the Fire Department.

In the first two months of winter, everyone's life is relatively easy.But now, this adjective is not suitable for this place - the reason is very simple. Every year, the regular year-end summary comes, and all departments have to review the expenses, performance, and detailed ledgers for the year, except for the kindergarten. Wolf cubs, the others are simply tossed to death...

Xiao Yun grabbed the four giants, Chief Huoyan, Chief Ali, Chief Grassroots, and Chief Arthur, and sat with the finance department led by Xuehua in the large conference room full of various ledgers and files for a whole day. When the meeting finally ended, even It is clear that the Huoyan patriarch who made up his head is always floating when he walks - the chief mascot is not easy to be, he is filled with a series of numbers from morning to night, he is as stupid and dull as the Huoyan patriarch, and even looks like a crooked person curved symbol.

"The financial department has not had any problems with the reimbursement form throughout the year, so the problem can only come from the private handover of the department." Xiao Yun pressed his forehead, and said to Xue Hua, who was also full of exhaustion, "Turn back to Hongye. Bring back the year-end summary report of Qiuling New District, and we will review it again."

Snow Flower said weakly: "Okay." After a pause, the female Snow Werewolf who had been interrupted in the winter estrus plan gritted her teeth, "Let me know who is not keeping accounts properly, I must blow his dog's head off!!"

Every capital flow in the tribe requires clear records, but no matter how reasonable and perfect the regulation system is, human errors will inevitably occur... Such a troublesome incident occurred during the financial review and summary this year. The amount of money is not big or small.

At first, I suspected that it was the fault of the people in the finance department's random reimbursement. After all, there are a lot of public expenditures in the tribe: all expenses related to infrastructure, bridges and roads, and farmland and water conservancy are all paid by public accounts; The agricultural machinery products produced are sold to various farms at half price of the cost, and the "loss" is also supplemented by the public account - if the agricultural machinery is purchased with full payment, it is not to mention that industry is feeding back agriculture, but that industrial scissors are poorly harvesting agricultural wool. .

In the past few years, all the tops and bottoms have sucked the blood of agriculture. If you don’t feed back agriculture when you have the conditions, then it’s not what a system with long-term planning should do~!

It is even more unacceptable for Xiao Yun to suck the blood of the agricultural practitioners after sucking the consumers like the Japanese Agricultural Association~! (The price of local agricultural products in Japan is so high that some people think that Japanese farmers are particularly rich. In fact, they are not...a little understanding of the Japan Agricultural Association. Everyone should know what it means)

Now, whether it is Xiao Yun or Xuehua, they can be sure that the inconsistency of funds should be due to an error in the reimbursement of agricultural machinery, but they don't know which farm it came from—the 60th place in the Huoyan Department, the [-]th place in the Snake Department Fifteen and two cat clan farms total [-]; more than [-] small farms are confronted one by one, this is going crazy!

Fortunately, all departments are doing year-end summaries now. It is easier to get the report from the Qiuling New District and check it with the ones submitted by each farm than to check each one.

Patting Xuehua on the shoulder to express his comfort, Xiao Yun said affectionately, "Hit harder, and count in my share."

Snow Flower: "...OK."

Accounts in the canteen are the easiest to deal with, even if the big boss is a bully, it has already been settled. A group of chefs laughed and looked at the busy people... but they thoughtfully prepared a lot of simple snacks with high sugar content to soothe people's hearts.

When Xiao Yun came to the cafeteria for supper, he ate today's chef's comforting snack - caramel egg custard pudding.

It's still a whole bowl of the kind of hot and sour powder.

This Xiao Yun liked it very much, he immediately picked up a spoon, scooped up a full spoonful, and stuffed a large piece of it into his mouth.

"Others have such a big bowl, why do I have such a small bowl?!"

Xiao Yun didn't even need to raise his head to know that this extremely exasperated and rising tone was Auston who was forced to be young.

"Small bowl?" The chef at the window was upset, "Look carefully for yourself, this bowl is bigger than your whole dragon!"

"That's different, Ayun's bowl is twice as big as mine!" Alston flapped his little wings, almost sticking to the chef's face.

The chef laughed angrily: "That's a paid standard meal, and what you eat is a free meal that you don't pay for. Of course you can't be at the same level as Ah Yun!"

"Wait, Auston is still eating free meals?!" Xiao Yun immediately bounced off the stool.

Alston's scalp exploded instantly, and he realized that he had done something stupid...

"Yeah, this guy has had free meals since the first month until now, or Balk paid for it, anyway, he hasn't spent a penny in the cafeteria." The chef said angrily.

After the reorganization of the cafeteria, the chefs also received dividends. 10% of the quarterly profit was used as a collective dividend for the chefs. The popularity of the cafeteria directly made the chefs the second highest income in the tribe after Balk and his son. Rich people... ahem.

Of course, the chefs will not just look at the money and treat consumers hierarchically for this reason; they don't like Auston, it is really shocking that this old dragon is stingy.

Xiao Yun was shocked, he raised his finger and pointed at the old dragon, he couldn't find any words to curse him for a while.

"You—what the hell, you can buy half of the cafeteria with your income, but you actually have the nerve to lick a dragon's face to eat free meals?!"

The Huoyan Department pays more for more work, and the Green Dragon father and son who work hard to make vermicelli can naturally stand at the peak of their annual salary.

Although Auston has been late for a long time and left early, and his bonuses have been deducted, it is not a small number if only "piecework" wages are counted.

Auston glared resentfully at the chef who was complaining in front of Xiao Yun, and said bravely: "I didn't say that I was not allowed to eat, so why do you want me to spend money?"

Xiao Yun took a deep breath, put down the spoon, rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward to catch the dragon.

Alston is so smart, he immediately used the weak wind magic to hold up the dinner plate, and fled out quickly.

It was already very late at this time, and everyone was bored in their respective rooms and settled their accounts. No one helped, Xiao Yun just didn't catch this shameless guy...

Back in the cafeteria, Xiao Yun immediately found a board, wrote a slogan and put it on the wall of the cafeteria—"Auston prohibits free meals!"

Mr. Sean and Primo, who had returned from "running away", came to the cafeteria for supper, and when they saw this slogan, they sprayed it.
