"They all went back to the cave one after another. It seems they are starting to mine." Anna replied in a low voice, "I saw that they didn't run away, so I didn't stop them."
"Smart decision." Gavin gave the girl priest a thumbs up, "From now on, we don't change them, but let them adapt to our existence. I just took a look and there are many good herbs around. Soong, you take those little ones to pick them. When the barbecue is done, I will leave ten pounds for you as prizes. I see that several kobolds are injured, some on their arms and legs, and some. Obviously disabled, next, you do what you do best.”
"Understood, this is called building goodwill." Anna chuckled like a little fox who successfully stole a chicken.
Gavin's gentle approach is very suitable for the kind-hearted girl pastor.
When she first heard about Gavin's plan to conquer the kobolds, she was really worried that Gavin would beat the kobolds with a whip like those slave owners.
If that were the case, she would be in a very difficult position.
At present, it seems that her worries are unnecessary. How could Mr. Gavin, such a kind and good man, use such despicable and shameless methods?
I had doubted Mr. Gavin in my heart before, and that was a huge mistake.
Gavin didn't know that the young priest had given him another good guy card in his heart. He listened carefully and heard the tinkling sound of mining coming from the cave.
He secretly praised it in his heart. He had long heard that kobolds are natural miners, especially those in the tribe. In addition to eating, drinking and sleeping, the rest of the day is mining. They are more conscious than slaves whipped with leather whips. It is said that this is They like to dig into the racial nature.
Previously, Gavin was worried about what he should do if these kobolds went out into the sun after they had eaten and drank enough. He couldn't whip them with a whip. Doing so would certainly make them work, but it would also build hatred, which was unwise. Lift.
Now, don't worry about them, just be your own cook.
Within a few minutes, the two lean blue sheep were pulled out of their bones by Gavin.
One end is directly tied up from head to tail and put on the fire to roast. Instead of sharing the food with them, some of them are selected and used as prizes to lure them in the direction they expect.
Chop one end into large pieces, and throw the bones into a hanging pot to make braised pork. The broth will be used to roll noodles later.
Throw the bones without bones into another pot and stew with other vegetables.
This time, Gavin didn't need to greet him. Those who were idle, especially the small-headed people, took the initiative to help collect firewood.
After Gavin rewarded them with a few meaty bones, they became even more motivated.
It seemed that they were hungry and smelled the aroma of food. The kobolds that had previously entered the mine came out one after another.
They were very conscious, holding their own wooden bowls, and lined up in a long line.
After two meals, the day will be dark.
Gavin was not prepared to leave the hanging pot idle at all, so he turned around and hunted another wild boar.
One pot can't hold the stew, but two pots are just right.
Simmer over low heat until dawn, and the wild boar dinner will be ready.
This is the case for three days, two meals a day.
One meal after sunrise and one meal before sunset.
Don't bring any duplicates.
Although it is mainly stewed, the taste is absolutely amazing.
Especially for a group that was originally on the line of food and clothing, this kind of life is simply paradise.
The tangy aroma does not attract the peeping eyes of hunters, but when most hunters become prey and become the next main course in the stew pot, the peeping eyes are obviously reduced a lot.
What's even more amazing is that when sharing the meal on the third day, Gavin habitually counted the number of people and found that the number of kobolds had changed again. Two brand-new faces appeared behind the food team.
Although he pretended to be calm, his words and deeds were a bit sneaky no matter how you looked at them. Two kobolds, you pushed me, and I pushed you to follow the food-collecting team.
Many of the kobolds in the Black Well just looked back at them, ignored them, and formed their own queues honestly.
Are all kobolds so non-exclusive?
Gavin had some doubts in his heart and decided to suppress his curiosity for the time being and prepare to let nature take its course and see how these kobolds would handle this matter.
Therefore, when the two kobolds came to Gavin, Gavin naturally took the wooden bowl next to him, filled a bowl and handed it to them.
The excitement on the faces of the two kobolds who received the food almost overflowed. They barked at Gavin politely twice, which was a thank you in kobold language.
During this breakfast, Gavin's main focus was on these two kobolds.
While they were eating, they exchanged a few barks with other kobolds, especially Goss, and then naturally integrated into their ranks.
After finishing the meal, they did not sneak away, but followed them into the black well mine. I don't know if they went to mine together.
So far, apart from cooking, Gavin has not interfered in the normal life of the Black Well kobolds, nor has he ever entered the Black Well mine.
As famous as their timidity are the traps of the kobolds. Who knows how many traps there are in the dark well that they use as both a work area and a den.
Goss, the leader of the Black Well kobolds, did not immediately drill into the Black Well mine after eating this time. Instead, he lingered in the distance, exuding a tangled aura, even though he didn't know much about this area. Even sensitive Vic can feel it.
Gavin certainly knew what the other party was struggling with. Although his kobold language was not very good, he could still understand part of the barking quarrels that occasionally came from the depths of the Black Well Mine. Coupled with his own reasoning, the situation Have a basic understanding.
It doesn’t matter whether the other party really surrendered at first or pretended to surrender.
After three days of Gavin's tolerant policy, many kobold camp trends began to shift towards him.
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
Although Goss has never heard this sentence, he still understands the truth.
After Gavin's troubles, the Black Well Tribe could never go back to the past.
Goss decided to have an in-depth discussion with Gavin on how he planned to deal with the Black Well Tribe.
It’s not an option to always have such good food and good food!
Other kobolds can eat without any thought, but Goss eats with fear every time.
He has never seen a human being who is not evil-hearted. Now that he is raising them with big fish and meat, there must be a bigger conspiracy. He is afraid that it won't be long before the entire Black Well is in ruins, and his stupid tribesmen will have to count their money. .
"If you have any questions, come and talk to me. If you keep digging, you will have to dig out a new mine." Gavin cleaned up the hanging pot, refilled it with water, washed his hands, and waved to Goss. .
"I've seen Sir Wang." Goss walked up coquettishly and said angrily, "On behalf of everyone in the Black Well tribe, Wang, I would like to thank you for taking care of Wang these days, but I advise you, in the end, It’s better to get out of here quickly.”
"Oh?" Gavin said with an interested expression, "Aren't you already loyal to me? Why did you suddenly drive me away?"
"I'm sorry, sir, I deceived you before." Goss said very honestly, "Because we didn't know your nature before, and we were afraid that you would hurt us like other humans, so we used this method. I'm trying to appease you, but in the past few days, not only have adults not harmed us, but they have also given us good food and drink. We can't live without heart and lungs. Now we have to tell the truth to adults. Our tribe is protected by someone. In a few days, God, he might come to collect taxes. If he meets you, I'm afraid he will harm you."
"No wonder!" Gavin said with a look of sudden realization, "No wonder your minerals are so good, you work so hard, and your life is so difficult. It turns out there are people who are exploiting you. Who is your guardian? Tell me in detail Come and listen.”
