Obviously, Xiao Han saw Xun'er's extremely unconvinced look, so he deliberately jumped her over when they were sharing tea.

Everyone present, even Xiaodong who was lighting the fire, was given a cup of tea, but Xun'er's hand was empty, which made Xiao Nizi breathless again.

If looks could kill, Xiao Han would have died eight hundred times under Xiao Nizi's looks!

Pupu probably noticed something strange about his daughter.

But he just smiled and didn't take it to heart at all. His daughter knew that because her mother died early, she had indeed been spoiled by him over the years, and now someone was giving her a little bit of trouble.

, not a bad thing!

"Commander, please have tea!"

After distributing the tea, Xiao Han pretended not to see Xun'er's dagger-like eyes, smiled and motioned to Gupu to have a taste of the tea he had brought.

Gupu was not polite, picked up the tea and took a sip. He felt a slight bitterness in his mouth at first, but when the bitterness dissipated, a sweetness suddenly rose in the back of his throat.

"Um!"

After carefully savoring the sweet and bitter taste for a while, Pupu nodded slightly, took another sip, and repeated this until he took the third sip before putting down the teacup in his hand.

For good tea, you only need to drink three sips. If you drink more, it is not called tea tasting, but cattle drinking.

"How is it? Commander, how do you like my tea?" Xiao Han asked with a smile when he saw Gupu put down his tea cup.

"It's indeed good tea!" Pu Pu nodded, but his eyes were still fixed on Xiao Han.

"However, Xiao Hou came all the way, not just to treat me to a sip of tea, right?"

"Haha, the commander-in-chief really knows things well, I admire you!"

Xiao Han laughed heartily, and in his words, he did not forget to compliment the real talker of the Miao Clan's Twelve Villages.

However, before Pupu could be polite, Xun'er behind him had already muttered: "Tsk! You flatterer! I guess even the dogs on the roadside know that night owls are entering the house, and there must be no good things going on!"

"Uh...cough cough cough..."

Although Xun'er's muttering was not loud, it still reached everyone's ears clearly in the quiet room. At this time, not only Xiao Han's face became hot, but even Qi Pu also coughed awkwardly.

.

"Xun'er, that Miss Chu is still waiting in your bamboo house, you'd better go and see her quickly!"

He really couldn't bear to reprimand his daughter, so he had no choice but to find a reason and send her out to save her from causing trouble here again.

"Humph, just go, who cares about being here!"

Seeing that her father was driving her away, Xun'er's big eyes quickly turned red. She stamped her feet fiercely, turned around and ran out of the room! Judging from the poor door that was slammed shut, the little girl's heart was filled with tears.

There is really a lot of anger.

"Ahem, my little girl has been spoiled since she was a child. I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He looked helplessly at his daughter who left with a "dong dong dong" sound. Gupu turned around in embarrassment and bowed her hands to Xiao Han and others.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter..." Seeing this, Xiao Han and others could only smile reluctantly, saying that they didn't care.

There are naughty children everywhere, just give them a beating! If they are still not good, then you have to beat them twice! It's a pity that this Xun'er is the little princess of the Miao village, and I'm afraid I won't be able to beat her.

With such false politeness, after Xun'er ran away and could no longer be seen, several people in the room picked up the topic just now:

"I just mentioned Xiaohou, you came all the way? I don't know why?"

"Haha, it's not a big deal. I just want to ask the Commander-in-Chief Pu Pu if he wants to make money to buy more food!"

"Earn money? Buy food?"

Hearing Xiao Han straightforwardly state the purpose of this trip, Pu Pu's expression immediately changed slightly!

As the current commander-in-chief of the Miao Village, although he does not live in Guangzhou City, he knows everything about the things in the city and is definitely no stranger!

Especially these days, Gupu knows very clearly what Xiao Han has caused in Guangzhou City.

I originally thought that he was here to help me this time, so I put aside the matter at Ayi Village and hurried back. Even on the way, he thought about how to refuse, but he didn't expect: Xiao Han this time

When I came, I actually asked him if he wanted to make money and buy food.

This result was so unexpected that Pu Pu was stunned for a long time and didn't even think of how to continue!

It is true that in the eyes of outsiders, the people in Miao Village are all happy!

During the day, the women weaved and the men hunted. At night, the whole village gathered around the fire to eat and sing. It seemed that there was never anything to worry about.

However, those outsiders have never thought: By hunting, can the people in the village really be full? And by weaving, how much food can be exchanged?

It is said that the Miao family likes to eat mountain fruits, but only the Miao family themselves know that it is not that they really like to eat it, but that they are hungry because of insufficient food, so they cannot eat those sweet and sour fruits, just to satisfy their hunger.

, not as natural and romantic as outsiders say!

"What does Xiao Hou mean by this?"

After taking a deep breath, Gupu frowned and stared at Xiao Han closely.

"What I mean is very simple." Xiao Han ignored Gupu's oppressive eyes and said calmly: "I want to make a deal with the commander-in-chief. Well, the word "a deal" is not appropriate. It should be

It’s a long-term business!”

"What deal?"

"Grain trading!"

"How much grain?"

"Thousands of ships of food!"

Hearing the number of thousands of ships, Pupu fell silent. However, it can be seen from his slightly trembling hands that his heart must not be as calm as his face at this time!

Xiao Han, who was sitting opposite him, took a sip of tea and looked at Gupu's expression quietly. He was not afraid that Gupu would not be tempted, because he knew what food meant to the Miao Village today!

A nation that lives deep in the mountains and can hardly farm, and can only make a living by hunting and picking.

Food must be the heaviest bargaining chip!

Because let alone their safari mode, which has the lowest productivity.

Even the Turks who live on the grasslands in a nomadic mode, don't they have to rely on plundering from time to time to meet their daily needs?

In later generations, countless histories and experiences have clearly told the world that only farming civilization is a truly sustainable civilization!

Plant one grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand grains in autumn!

There is no idle land everywhere, and farmers are still starving to death!

If this is the case for farming people, what about those people who make a living by hunting? You must know that it only takes a few months for food to be harvested from planting, but it can take several years at the fastest for prey to grow from small to large!

And the most important thing is that the food cannot run away, but the prey can run, fight back, and bite!
