Leisurely Farm Life in Beast World

He paused, then continued, "If the Dashi Tribe’s settlement is right next to another tribe’s territory, Shi Jie, do you think you could sleep at night?"

Shi Jie thought for a moment, then honestly shook his head. He wasn’t just unable to sleep; he was too afraid to sleep at all.

At this point, Bear-the-Big spoke up, "But if you do that, your territory will be too big. It will make the distribution of territory for the downstream tribes unfair."

Chief Ge Xing frowned, slowly rotating the meat he was roasting in his hands. "That’s why I came to discuss it with you. We just migrated here, we don’t understand the territories here. Since our relationship is so good, could you two help me come up with a solution?"

Xiu Yan raised an eyebrow from the side, impressed with Ge Xing’s clever move of leaving this difficult problem to the two original tribes.

While Shi Jie and Bear-the-Big were deep in thought, looking worried, Ge Xing leisurely cooked his juicy, fragrant meat. If he were to start whistling in leisure, it would almost feel like he was on a peaceful camping trip.

With the crackling sound of roasting meat, Ge Xing handed over the grilled piece in his hand to Xiu Yan behind him, indicating: "You eat first while I keep roasting".

He picked up a fresh piece of meat from a broad leaf nearby, skewered it, and continued roasting.

By the time Bear-the-Big and Shi Jie lifted their heads, done deliberating, Ge Xing had already finished his second piece of roasted meat and was leisurely cooking another piece.

Bear-the-Big looked at him in disbelief, frustratedly said, "While we’re here worrying about your tribal territory, you seem to be enjoying the meal."

Ge Xing licked the grease from his fingers and grinned, "Doesn’t that show how much I trust that you clan leaders won’t shortchange the Watson Tribe?"

Having spoken, he offered the two sizzling, fragrant grilled steaks skewered on his stick to Bear-the-Big and Shi Jie. "Haha, come on, try and see how good my roasting skills are. In our tribe, my grilling skills are simply excellent".

Xiu Yan: ...

The orcs of the Watson Tribe: ...

How could you claim your grilling skills are good when you didn’t even season the meat?

To the contemptuous glances of his tribesmen, the calm Chief Ge Xing responded, "Luckily, I can’t see it."

"We just discussed... munch munch... and decided to give half of the territory near your city wall to your tribe. In addition, the original territory of the Guo Tribe, isn’t that also adjacent to your tribe? We’ll assign that to you too. What do you think?"

Having said that, they looked at Ge Xing hesitantly.

Ge Xing pretended to hesitate in response, "In that case..."

He sighed, "Alright then, I suppose it has to be that way, we must leave some space for the other smaller tribes."

Bear-the-Big and Shi Jie exchanged glances and sighed in relief, nodding in agreement.

The next while was happily spent eating meat. Satisfied with the accomplishment, Chief Ge Xing cheerfully grilled meat for the two clan leaders until they were both full.

Eating until their stomachs bulged, the three of them sat a while longer before Ge Xing stood to leave. "Well, I should be on my way. Such good news must be shared with my tribe so that they can be happy too."

Shi Jie and Bear-the-Big stood up and accompanied Ge Xing as far as the edge of the tribal settlement. After saying their goodbyes watched as the silhouette of Ge Xing leading his tribe gradually faded in the distance.

"Did we give too much territory to the Watson Tribe?" Shi Jie turned to Bear-the-Big and asked.
