"Of course, no problem. Respected Tribal Chief, how many people do you need?”
Ku Ke's voice was filled with excitement. Even through Jie's narration, Li Chengdao could feel the unimaginable excitement and excitement in his words.
"As for Chief Cook, it's up to you to decide!”
Li Chengdao's smile spread across his face. His expression did not have the slightest intention of discussing. Instead, he directly gave the initiative to the other party.
This was not because he was stupid, but because he believed that the other party's decision was definitely more suitable than what he had said, and it would not let him suffer any losses.
This was not an overestimation of the man's character, but a confidence in himself and the strength he had displayed. It should be known that although it was unintentional, everything that had happened during the migration had given this young Native American an unimaginable shock. Not to mention, the strength he had displayed this time was terrifying enough. He believed that as long as this chief was not stupid, he would know what to do.
In fact, that was indeed the case.
After Li Chengdao's words, Cook's expression became even more excited. He even couldn't wait to speak. At the same time, he stretched out his right hand to indicate a number of five. However, in his anxiety, another finger grew out. It became seven, then eight, and finally stopped when both hands were exposed.
"Your Highness, Abba said that he is willing to use a hundred people to replace them. He only hopes that Your Highness can guarantee their food!”
He looked at Jie, who spoke at this moment and translated Ku Ke's words to Li Chengdao.
This made Li Chengdao's heart beat violently. He had given the initiative to Ku Ke, and Li Chengdao believed that the other party would definitely give him a reasonable price. However, he had never expected that the other party would give him such a big thing.
One hundred people, it was actually one hundred people. One had to know that in the entire Cook Tribe, according to Li Chengdao's observation, there should only be four to five hundred people. This was more than one-fifth of the population, which was absolutely unbelievable.
In a primitive society, population was a burden, but it was also a representation of strength. A large tribe was a large tribe because they had at least a thousand people. To this tribe, although it was not directly abandoning these people, but only temporarily trading them, these people would still belong to them. However, taking out 100 people was definitely not a small matter.
Li Chengdao had thought that it would be good enough if this Tribal Chief could bring out 20 to 30 people. Although this was a little less, it was still enough to achieve Li Chengdao's initial goal. As for the others, he could slowly solve them.
However, the result was a hundred people. Even if not all of them were young and strong, such a number was still very impressive. Even for Li Chengdao, it was extremely useful. After all, this was the labor force of a hundred people, which meant that China could take out another hundred people.
However, these thoughts were only in his heart for the time being. He didn't show them. His expression remained the same, as if he wasn't too moved. This kind of expression made Cook seem to misunderstand something. He couldn't help but speak up.
"Respected Tribal Chief, this is the greatest sincerity our tribe can offer. You, you also know that our tribe is only a small tribe. Even in terms of numbers, we can't be compared to your tribe!”
As the voice spoke, Kuck's forehead was covered in sweat. It was a result of his anxiety. As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to have made up his mind. He could not help but grit his teeth and speak with determination.
"If you think that the number of people is too small, I, I can bring you to the large tribe of the Chippewa people in the east. There will definitely be the number of people you want!”
To be honest, Cook did not want to introduce Li Chengdao to other tribes, even if they were all from the same tribe. After all, it was such a powerful tribe, and it was fine to just befriend his own tribe. However, in the current situation, it seemed that he could not accept the other party's request. The other party's offer was too tempting, so he gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Although doing so might cause their tribe to lose a lot of benefits, they would not be able to deal with it if they did not do so. Instead, rather than going to Li Chengdao's distant tribe and going to other people, especially the Tongwa tribe, it would be better to inform the Chippewa people. This way, not only would he be able to gain a good impression from Li Chengdao, but his actions would also be remembered by many people.
"Oh, the tribe in the east!”
Li Chengdao didn't understand most of the translation, but there was a small part that made his eyes light up. He was about to agree when he stopped.
Although 100 people was already an unexpected harvest for him, who would complain about a small harvest? A big tribe, a big tribe that Cook thought could take his deal, this made him a little tempted, so much so that he stopped his original plan. He wanted to know how big this big tribe was.
