Chapter 76: Chapter 76 Industrial Worker_1

The Werewolf Clan Leaders finished singing the ancient tune together, then bowed to Yan Xing as one. This time, they didn’t shout any resounding slogans, for no slogan could express their feelings at that moment.

"It seems that all the Clan Leaders agree to send the cubs of your tribes to study in the Eternal Domain, so let’s consider that settled. I’ll take care of whatever is needed," Yan Xing gestured for the Werewolf Clan Leaders to sit down and then added, "Please turn to the next page."

It depicted a fishpond with several werewolves casting a large net to catch fish within it.

"Once the roads are open, we need to think about how to provide your tribes with a stable and sustainable source of food. After all, there is only so much agarwood, and once you dig one up, there’s one less," Yan Xing continued. "I’ve heard that it has become hard to find agarwood in some of your tribes’ territories."

Li Zhua, who sat by Yan Xing’s side, said, "That’s right, Lord Yan Xing. There wasn’t much agarwood in Stenchwater Forest to begin with, and now it’s even harder to find. I believe some Werewolf Tribes are now encountering the same situation as Stenchwater Forest."

Li Zhua had barely finished speaking when some Clan Leaders chimed in, stating that agarwood in their territories had also become very scarce. They expressed regret for having dug up so much of it to sell to Eden.

After these Clan Leaders finished voicing their struggles, Yan Xing said, "We can’t start digging canals on a large scale in the swamp just yet, but you can excavate ponds within your own territories and then connect these ponds. With such abundant water resources in the swamp, it would be a waste not to utilize them. Ponds can be used to raise fish and shrimp, and ducks can be raised alongside them. The edges of the swamp boast lush aquatic plants, perfect for grazing cattle, sheep, and even horses.

"Previously, your tribes were wary of each other and couldn’t engage in large-scale livestock farming. But now that everyone is seated together, how to raise, distribute, and protect your common ponds and pastures are all matters that can be negotiated. Once the roads open up, our connection will become even closer. As long as we cooperate and share our resources, then the food we raise ourselves will not only be enough to feed all our people but will also provide a surplus for sale.

"I’ve discussed this with Eden. The Silvermane Principality has a large military presence on the Wildwind Highlands and has also relocated many artisans and civilians. Even if the Duchy’s Army organizes farming, they still need to transport a substantial amount of food from the Principality to the Highlands, which costs a lot. Meat is also very scarce. If we can bring a large quantity of meat to Nuta City, we can certainly earn a lot of wealth for ourselves."

What Yan Xing said was very straightforward to people from his original world, but to the werewolves, it was somewhat confusing. They never had enough of their hunted game to spare for rearing; they knew that some animals could be farmed, but they didn’t know how. So when they heard Yan Xing’s plans for livestock farming, they were all at a loss.

However, the part about being able to feed their own people and even having a surplus to sell to humans—that, the Clan Leaders understood. Whether they understood the rest no longer mattered. Lord Yan Xing was generous and kind, and his word was his bond. If he said that what he proposed would be good for the Werewolf Tribes, then it definitely would be.

Duan’er exclaimed, "Let’s follow Lord Yan Xing’s words! There’s no going wrong with Lord Yan Xing leading us!"

Now, the Werewolf Clan Leaders had absolute trust in Yan Xing. If Lord Yan Xing said he would lead them to prosperity, they would certainly become prosperous. One after another, the Clan Leaders expressed their willingness to follow Lord Yan Xing.

Yan Xing looked at these Clan Leaders, who appeared utterly confused and were merely echoing the shouts. He felt like an official tasked with lifting dozens of impoverished villages out of poverty. It was quite mentally draining. It seemed there was no point expecting these Werewolf Clan Leaders to offer suggestions or plans; it was up to him, this Lord, to lay everything out clearly for them.

"Since all of you Clan Leaders agree with my idea," Yan Xing announced, "I suggest we establish a company together, named Eternal Commerce and Trade. I will serve as the chairman and president of Eternal Commerce and Trade, and you all will be the directors. What I mean is... I’m in charge, and you simply need to listen and work. Eternal Domain will provide the tools for digging fishponds and channels, as well as shrimp and fish fry, cattle, sheep, and horses. Your tribes will provide the breeding grounds and personnel. For our mutual benefit, I will establish strict company guidelines. All personnel and materials will be managed uniformly, and the output will be distributed according to each tribe’s contribution. As long as you work hard, the more you do, the more you will reap. Do any of you have objections to what I’ve said?"

Duan’er said, "What objections could we have? The livestock and tools are provided by Lord Yan Xing, and we simply provide some labor to get a share. Only a generous and kind Lord like you would consider our needs to such an extent."

Li Zhua also said, "Lord Yan Xing... Although we are simple-minded, we can see that you truly came to save our Werewolf Tribes. From now on, you’re our alpha, and we will all follow your lead."

The other Werewolf Clan Leaders also felt that by joining the "Eternal Commerce Company," their respective tribes were benefiting greatly from Eternal Domain. After all, their tribes were just contributing labor, while Lord Yan Xing was investing so much. With Lord Yan Xing being so generous, how could they have any other demands? That would make them ungrateful!

The Werewolf Tribes agreed to jointly establish the "Eternal Commerce Company."

The purpose of Yan Xing summoning so many Werewolf Clan Leaders this time was largely achieved. Once the roads were constructed and the entire livestock industry tied the interests of these Werewolf Tribes together, Eternal Domain would become an irreplaceable part of them. Yan Xing naturally became the true alpha.

Additionally, due to this binding of interests, Yan Xing’s Eternal Domain managed to expand to the southern edge of Thunderous Swamp in a short time. As each resolution was implemented, these Werewolf Tribes would become branches in the development of Eternal Domain. Their strength also represented the strength of Eternal Domain. Therefore, when Yan Xing helped these Werewolf Tribes, there was no disgraceful manipulation behind the scenes, nor any thought of reaping their wealth to nurture his own Eternal Domain. Everything was out in the open and recorded in documents.

Eternal Domain and the Werewolf Tribes would coexist, develop together, and achieve a win-win outcome. With Eternal Domain as the core of the Werewolf Tribes, this region became Yan Xing’s most dependable base. No external force, using any schemes, could shake Yan Xing’s position here.

Thus, Yan Xing presented his plan to arm the Werewolf Tribes on the southern edge of Thunderous Swamp.

"Please turn to the next page," Yan Xing invited the Clan Leaders to consider the next item on the agenda, now that the new resolution was passed. "A good life must be protected by sufficient military power. Because prosperity and wealth most easily attract the greedy—like the Orcs and human mercenaries we encountered today. If my Eternal Domain didn’t have an army capable of resisting invasions, it would have long ceased to exist. You too must strengthen your own tribe’s military power as soon as possible..."
