Feng Chao was very nervous, and her words ca out haltingly.
"Don’t be nervous, Feng Chao, relax a bit. As long as you’re not betraying the tribe, I won’t bla you."
Jiang Xuan’s voice was very gentle, easing Feng Chao’s frantic anxiety.
Feng Chao took a deep breath, gathered her courage, looked up at Jiang Xuan, and said, "Chief, I want to use these Wanderers to help us gather intelligence on surrounding tribes."
"Using Wanderers to gather information on surrounding tribes?"
Jiang Xuan pondered for a mont and said, "Continue."
Feng Chao said, "Last ti we used that Wanderer to find the location of the Mantis Tribe. I’ve been thinking perhaps we can use these Wanderers to do more."
"These Wanderers all escaped from various exterminated tribes. They know quite a bit about the enemies who destroyed their tribes and harbor strong resentnt."
"So I thought, by exploiting their hatred and the temptation of food, they would surely be willing to help us gather so intelligence."
"I know the chief has always wanted to understand the situation of surrounding tribes. I... I want to help the chief..."
After Feng Chao finished speaking, she lowered her head again.
Jiang Xuan was shocked by her idea.
Talent, this is talent for sure!
Although her thods were not sophisticated, she grasped the mindset of those Wanderers very accurately.
She used the hatred of the Wanderers, combined with the allure of food, to make them willingly work for her.
Among the tribespeople, who generally had simple minds, soone like Feng Chao was definitely considered talented.
Jiang Xuan’s gaze was very complicated, as he looked at Feng Chao wordlessly.
Feng Chao kept her head down, feeling like her hands had nowhere to go.
After a long ti, she finally gathered the courage, raised her head, and asked, "Chief... Chief, did I do sothing wrong?"
"You did do sothing wrong!"
"Then... what about in the future..."
Jiang Xuan interrupted her, "Your mistake is in using your own resources to exchange for food for this endeavor!"
Feng Chao looked at Jiang Xuan in astonishnt, her mouth opened, but she didn’t know what to say.
"In the future, don’t make such foolish mistakes again. If it’s for the tribe, it’s up to the tribe to provide the food, including other resources."
Without knowing why, Feng Chao suddenly felt very touched, her eyes turned red, but she didn’t cry.
Jiang Xuan continued, "Let ask you, do you prefer to keep working in the clothing workshop or do you want to do sothing else, like recruiting Wanderers and gathering information on other tribes?"
Feng Chao was silent for a mont, then resolutely said, "Chief, I want to help the tribe gather intelligence."
"Don’t rush to answer ."
Jiang Xuan walked forward and signaled Feng Chao to follow, and she quietly walked behind him.
"Working in the clothing workshop, with your talent, you could definitely turn it into a bigger clothing factory in the future, and most importantly, it’s very safe there. You can live a stable life."
"But doing this kind of work, recruiting Wanderers and gathering external intelligence, is extrely dangerous. You could be discovered by other tribes or betrayed at any ti, risking your life."
"Honestly, I don’t really want you to do such a dangerous task."
Feng Chao said firmly, "Chief, without you, without the Vine Tribe, I would have been dead long ago. I’m not afraid of danger."
Jiang Xuan stopped, turned around, and looked at Feng Chao, "Have you really decided? Once you take this path, there’s no turning back. Even people within the tribe might misunderstand you in the future. I hope you consider it carefully."
"Then... Chief, will you trust ?"
"I will!"
Feng Chao suddenly smiled, blooming like a small roadside flower.
"As long as the chief always trusts , that’s enough."
Jiang Xuan’s heart trembled; at this mont, it felt like sothing pricked him.
