Eve of Annexation

Ancestral Hall's main hall.

Several clan elders looked at the copper-yellow stones placed on the table, weighing about a dozen pounds, and kept stroking these peculiar stones.

"Can this thing really allow our Yang Clan to take a step forward?"

The old woman looked at the stones in front of her with suspicion.

These were no different from ordinary stones, with only a slight difference in color.

Could it really allow the clan to take a step further?

"Unknown."

The other two clan elders shook their heads.

The divine nature of the clan leader was obvious to all.

If the clan leader said it could allow the clan to take a step further, then it could allow the clan to take a step further.

After all, they still had more faith in their own clan leader.

"Wait for the clan leader to return and make a decision."

The more dignified clan elder coughed softly, making a final decision.

He had also led the Hunting Team, fighting fierce beasts in the deep Shan, and since entering old age, he had been arranged by the clan leader to enter the family Ancestral Hall to manage the development of the clan, without letting them do heavy work.

Just then.

Yang Yu strode in from outside the Ancestral Hall in a hurry, without the dignity of a clan leader at all.

The importance of Copper Ore to the clan was self-evident.

This was the key to whether the tribe could develop and grow, and it must not be neglected.

"Clan Leader." Seeing the clan leader Yang Yu walking in from outside, the three clan elders stood up at the same time and respectfully saluted the clan leader Yang Yu.

Yang Yu waved his hand slightly, his eyes falling on the copper-yellow stone, with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

This was Copper Ore.

"Clan Leader, is this thing the Copper Stone?" The old woman tentatively looked at the clan leader Yang Yu and asked.

Yang Yu nodded slightly, holding up the ore like a treasure, with joy in his eyes, "This is the opportunity for our Yang Clan to take a step further."

"Bring Yang Feng to me."

"Clan Leader, Yang Feng has gone home to rest."

Lin Er heard Yang Yu's words and said in a low voice.

Unexpectedly.

Copper Ore was really found.

"Forget it! I'll ask tomorrow."

Hearing this, Yang Yu remembered that he had told Yang Feng to go back to rest.

Calling him over again now would be his fault.

Night.

The Yang Feng residence.

"Feng, did you really find the Copper Ore?"

Yang Feng's Wife looked at her husband, tentatively asking.

After all, this matter had already spread throughout the tribe.

"It wasn't I who found the Copper Ore."

Yang Feng shook his head slightly.

The Copper Ore wasn't found by him, but by Yang Yun.

"Then it was you who found it."

Yang Feng's Wife's eyes flickered as she said.

After all, the clan leader had promised that whoever found the Copper Ore would have a new page added to the family tree.

Such temptation was irresistible to anyone.

"Yuan, it wasn't I who found it," Yang Feng said seriously.

The clan leader would ask who found it.

Moreover, if there were liars in the Hunting Team, they would likely be kicked out of the Hunting Team once the clan leader found out, and even their family's resources would be halved.

That was not what he wanted.

"Father, who found the Copper Ore?"

Yang Yan asked.

"Yang Yun," Yang Feng said truthfully.

"We can discuss with Yang Yun and give you the credit for finding the Copper Ore."

"We can compensate Yang Yun later."

Yang Feng's Wife said.

"No."

To this, Yang Yan shook his head in denial, saying, "If we take the credit for ourselves, I fear it will cost Father his position in the Hunting Team. Father will also be unable to gain the Hunting Team's trust. If the clan leader becomes angry and expels Father from the Hunting Team, I fear our family will have no place to live in the tribe."

"However, Father also has merit. There is no need to sacrifice a bright future for petty gains."

"Yan, you are absolutely right."

Yang Feng greatly agreed with his child's idea.

The clan leader was the tribe's wise man.

Don't deceive me.

"Forget it, forget it."

Yang Feng's Wife sighed.

Perhaps her perspective isn't as good as her husband and children.

But she also wants her family to live better in the tribe.

The next day.

The Ancestral Hall of the Yang Clan.

"Two hundred li from the tribe?"

Yang Yu listened to the descriptions from the Hunting Team, Yang Feng, Yang Yun, and others, looked at the rough map drawn by Yang Feng, and suddenly looked up at Yang Feng and the others.

What is the concept of two hundred li?

Currently, two hundred li is a vague concept in the tribe.

One li is about five hundred meters.

Two hundred li is equivalent to one hundred kilometers.

Does the tribe need to transport Copper Ore from one hundred kilometers away?

"Two hundred li is too far."

Yang Yu immediately fell into deep thought.

The current tribe cannot tame wild donkeys or wild horses for the time being. The only means of transportation is the scooter, and it doesn't even have wheels.

Transporting Copper Ore from two hundred li away would be a huge burden on the tribe.

"Chieftain, I suggest migration."

Yang Feng looked at the Chieftain Yang Yu in front of him and said, "The reason we have been delayed for so long is to find a suitable camp for our tribe to migrate to. The new camp is close to a water source and is about five times the size of our tribe's current location, suitable for our tribe to migrate and survive, and it is less than twenty li from the Copper Ore."

"Migration?"

Immediately, Yang Yu, Lin Er, and the elders of the Yang Clan fell silent.

Migration.

That would affect the entire clan.

"Yu, migration may not be appropriate."

"Several of our elders may not be able to withstand a long migration!"

Lin Er had a look of anxiety on her face.

Migration is a disaster for the entire clan.

After migrating, they would also need to rebuild houses.

Where do the clansmen currently reside?

"Relocation."

Yang Yu pondered for a moment, then decided on the relocation, saying, "The importance of Copper Ore to our clan is self-evident."

"Yu~"

Lin Er looked at Yang Yu in horror, are you crazy?

"I have my own plans."

"Now that it's summer, I will lead the Hunting Team to the new camp during this time to cut down trees and build houses."

"After we have established a tribe at the new camp, before the harsh winter arrives, our clan should relocate to the new camp."

Yang Yu told the elders present about his plan.

Of course, he was just informing these elders, not discussing it with them.

"Then, the tribe we discovered?"

Lin Er asked tentatively.

Weren't they discussing taking down the discovered tribe when the Hunting Team returned?

Hearing this.

Yang Yu fell silent again.

Indeed, the tribe's development now requires too much population.

"Prepare for now, take down this tribe first, and then we'll go to the new camp."

Yang Yu finally gave this plan, saying, "I need to go to the workshop."

If they were to fight with other tribes.

Then they needed to be fully prepared.

A trip to the workshop was necessary.

The purpose was to prevent any losses on their side.

With that said.

Yang Yu didn't waste any time, immediately stood up from his seat, and walked out of the Ancestral Hall's main hall.

After walking out of the Ancestral Hall's main hall.

Yang Yu went straight towards the workshop.

Arriving at the workshop.

The two old men were still working hard to make tools, such as Flint sickles and Flint picks.

Seeing the clan leader walking in from outside, the two old men quickly put down their work and saluted Yang Yu.

"Spare the formalities."

"Can you all make this thing?"
