I am a Primitive Man

The birds in the forest chirped incessantly, and the remaining people of the Green Tribe would occasionally glance toward the tribe's entrance. Seeing those tree stumps still standing at the cave entrance, the unease caused by most people leaving the cave gradually dissipated.

These tree stumps formed a semicircle around the entrance of the Green Tribe's cave. Although it was somewhat inconvenient to come and go compared to before, no one complained because it served as a protective barrier for them.

The destruction of the powerful Bone Tribe made the people of the Green Tribe realize the importance of fortifications even more deeply.

Upon their return, the leader of the Green Tribe and others began to try to figure out how to build fortifications to protect their cave. However, without suitable tools and difficult-to-dig soil, and although plenty of stones were nearby, it was impossible to build a wall with just these resources.

The common sentiment among the people of the Green Tribe was: "How did that tribe manage to dig up so much soil and find so many stones?"

Furthermore, the people of the Green Tribe had to spend their days running around for food, so after trying for some time, they gave up on building the wall.

In the end, they used tree stumps instead.

The "wall" made of tree stumps was only a little over a meter high and no more than thirty meters long. Yet, it took the people of the Green Tribe more than three months of effort to build it...

Although it was rudimentary, compared to having no cover when leaving the cave, it still made the people of the Green Tribe feel secure and confident.

The person standing on the wall shouted, and the wooden clappers sounded.

After the raids from the Flying Snake Tribe in the second year of the Green Sparrow Tribe, and the Bone Tribe this year, the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe became even more cautious and wary of newcomers.

The Flying Snake Tribe was already evil, but the Bone Tribe, although not evil before, would still attack their tribe.

This incident made the people of the Green Sparrow Tribe understand the truth: sometimes, even friendly tribes can become hostile.

Seeing the tribespeople quickly taking action, Han Cheng momentarily instructed someone to cover the stone mortar used for pounding millet with something. He also had the millet pounded in the sieve and carried back into the room.

At the same time, he picked up a broom and swept the millet husks on the ground to a less noticeable place, covering them with dry straw.

After carefully inspecting the surroundings and ensuring that no traces were left, he smiled and turned his gaze to the people who had already arrived at the wall and outside the gate.

As expected, the visitors this time should be from the Green Tribe.

The Green Tribe was not too far from their tribe, and the climate was similar.

The grains in their tribe were already ripe for harvest, and it was likely the same for the Green Tribe.

Based on the Green Tribe leader's tendency to be fond of small advantages, it was highly possible that after harvesting their grains, they would come to their tribe to exchange goods.

The main reason why the Green Tribe did not value millet was that they didn't know how to consume it after husking.

Once the people of the Green Tribe discovered the correct way to consume grains, along with the cultivated fields around their tribe, the Green Tribe would undoubtedly develop towards agriculture.

Agriculture was immensely significant for a tribe, and as someone from the future, Han Cheng understood this better than anyone in this era.

Nomadic and hunting-fishing lifestyles cannot sustain a race's continuous growth and development or lead to the development of a world-leading civilization. The only way to achieve this is through agriculture, which can feed a sufficient population and bring people together in settled communities.

Without food, who would sleep soundly?

In his plan, the Green Tribe would eventually integrate into the Sparrow Tribe. To facilitate this integration, the Green Tribe needed to remain impoverished and backward.

The absorption and assimilation of lower civilizations by higher ones is far easier than the reverse.

On a small scale, Han Cheng had to resort to these measures to grow and prosper the Green Sparrow Tribe, while on a grander scale, it was about rescuing the Green Tribe from dire straits.

Not allowing them to return to the days of uncertainty, where they wouldn't know where their next meal would come from...

It's a bit shameless.

Han Cheng thought to himself as he touched his face.

But it feels good somehow...

The Eldest Senior Brother on the wall shouted towards Han Cheng. As Han Cheng had anticipated, the visitors were indeed from the Green Tribe.

"￥2!"

The leader of the Green Tribe looked up at the tall, impassable wall with envy.

At the same time, a deep sense of admiration was rising within him.

Only those who had tried it themselves knew how difficult it was to build such a wall.

It was simply beyond human capacity.

He touched the wild grass on his shoulder, and the sense of loss in his heart regained confidence.

He wanted to encourage himself because there was too much disappointment just now.

As the leader of the Green Tribe approached the edge of the wall, he vigorously patted the wild grass on his shoulder, loudly boasting to Han Cheng and the others of the Green Sparrow Tribe, and clamoring to exchange all the Sparrow Tribe pottery.

The Eldest Senior Brother, who understood the leader of the Green Tribe's intention, was somewhat astonished.

He looked back at the large amount of grain drying in the yard and then at the unthreshed grain carried on the shoulders of the Green Tribe and others, which couldn't even match half an acre of their own tribe's land. He really couldn't understand where the courage of the leader of the Green Tribe came from.

After the initial surprise, the Eldest Senior Brother smiled.

Some people who understood the leader of the Green Tribe's intentions also laughed along.

The rest of the Green Sparrow Tribe, who were unaware of what was happening, couldn't help but laugh when they learned the reason from those who understood the leader of the Green Tribe.

The leader and people of the Green Tribe, seeing the people laughing without explaining why they were allowed in, found it inexplicable.

What were these guys doing? What happened that was so funny?

Why were they laughing so contagiously?

"￥!"

Unable to bear this strange atmosphere, the leader of the Green Tribe asked loudly for the reason.

Seeing the leader of the Green Tribe's serious appearance, the Eldest Senior Brother and others on the wall burst into laughter again.

It took a while for the laughter to subside. Then, they ordered the gate of the tribe to be opened, allowing the very cooperative Green Tribe to enter, having already conscientiously placed their weapons aside.

What a tribe of lunatics!

The leader of the Green Tribe didn't know the term "lunatic," but if he did, he would have handed it to the Sparrow Tribe without hesitation.

"Hiss~!"

The leader of the Bone Tribe, who was inexplicably puzzled by the strange behavior of the people of the Sparrow Tribe, stopped abruptly after entering the gate, stood still for a long time, and took a deep breath...
