My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 354 Faint move
Seeing that his tribesmen were all dissatisfied with him, Amon was actually quite regretful.

If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it.

But it's too late to regret it now.

Especially after seeing General Da Xiawei lead thousands of men to haul away cartloads of grain from their tribe's territory, the tribesmen's resentment and anger reached their peak.

Fearing that these tribesmen would become enraged, Amon would break into the tent at night and kill him and Meng Lanyin together.

He decided to go all the way and set fire to the clan's land.

Then, under the cover of night, he took twelve of his closest personal guards and stole all the remaining grain from the clan's land.

Chief Amon abandoned the group of elderly, weak, women and children, and fled with his daughter Yinyin in the middle of the night.

He ran away!
Xin Nian received the news the following evening and only then did she realize that the foolish chieftain of the Hutu tribe had made such a stupid move.

At that time, a long line formed at the entrance of the base, with a group of miserable-looking women, children and elderly people from other ethnic groups standing in line, crying and telling everyone they met about their experiences.

The people in this group don't speak Daxia language well, and many of them are unintelligible.

It was Chen Ling who had several Hutu laborers brought from the construction site that finally understood the situation and immediately reported it to Xin Wenyuan.

Xin Wenyuan stared at the long line of foreigners in front of him, completely bewildered. "About how many people are there?"

"Commander, there are three to four thousand people," Chen Ling reported in detail. "According to the count, there are about a hundred family members among those unpaid laborers. These can be accommodated and temporarily live and eat with the laborers on the construction site. But the others..."

Xin Wenyuan nodded, then turned and beckoned to Captain Wang of the patrol team, "Send two men to the Yan people's camp and bring Princess Wulingya here."

A bunch of onlookers crowded around the base entrance.

Xin Nian walked through the crowd, and everyone greeted her warmly.

Xin Nian waved her hand and ran straight to her father's side. "Dad, Dad. What are you going to do with so many people?"

Chen Ling said with a smile, "The commander has already sent someone to invite Princess Wulingya over, and they should be arranged to go to the Yan people's camp."

"Oh, that's good." Xin Nian nodded in understanding.

The Hutu people had been neighbors with the Yan people for several years, so they were probably quite familiar with each other's habits and customs.

It would be appropriate to arrange for them to stay with Wulingya.

Xin Nian had a laborer brought before her and asked, "Did your chieftain really run away? And looted all the food?"

"Yes!!" The laborer's face was filled with righteous indignation, clearly heartbroken by what his people had gone through.

“Girl, he is not our clan leader. He is not worthy to be our clan leader at all! If the old clan leader were still alive, this would never have happened.”

“My people say that before he left, he not only took all the remaining food and fodder, but also set fire to the camp.”

"More than a dozen elderly people in our clan's territory were burned alive because they were unable to move around easily."

"How can someone like that be our clan leader? He's a demon!"

"Yes, it's hateful. The experimental fields we had painstakingly cultivated and the greenhouses we had built were all burned down by him."

Upon hearing this, the other Hutu tribesmen nodded emphatically, their faces filled with righteous indignation.

Xin Nian thought to herself, "What a weirdo."

This can't be serious, can it?

Even though half of the grain in their tribe's territory was handed over as tax, Xin Nian knew very well that the potatoes and sweet potatoes they planted this time had a good yield per mu, enough to support the Hutu tribe for half a year without any problem.

Anyway, no one will starve; at most, they'll just have to tighten their belts for half a year. She simply couldn't understand Amon's bizarre move.

Is this revenge against her, or revenge against his own people?

What's most infuriating is that the experimental wasteland, which had finally shown some results after a year of cultivation, was burned down and reduced to nothing.

To be honest, Amon and Meng Lanyin are a perfect match; they're both incredibly stupid and vicious.

"Commander, Princess Wulingya has arrived."

"Quickly, invite her over."

Wu Lingya leaped off her horse and walked briskly towards Xin Wenyuan and his daughter. She bowed respectfully and smiled broadly, "Commander Xin, Goddess! You summoned me here so urgently, is there something important to discuss?"

Xin Wenyuan smiled broadly, "Xiao Wu, let's go into the base and talk in the conference room."

"Okay, okay." Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly, not feeling at all that her actions as the princess of Yanbei were somewhat sycophantic.

Xin Wenyuan summoned Zhou Linchuan, Xie Rui, and a few others to discuss the details with Xiao Wu.

Xin Nian was surrounded by a group of women and children from a different ethnic group whose language she could not understand.

The Hutu tribesmen, their faces filled with sorrow, poured out their grievances to the supposedly incredibly powerful Sixth Sister.

Xin Nian was exasperated by their crying, so she had someone call over the translator laborer from before and pointed at him, saying, "Hey, tell them to stop crying. The base commander and Xiao Wu have gone to discuss it, and they'll have a decision soon."

The laborer nodded repeatedly, spoke to the women and elderly in his tribal language, offered some words of comfort, then turned away with tears in his eyes, saying sadly, "Everyone is so heartbroken. Many people have lost their only food supplies, and now they don't know where to go."

Xin Nian raised her hand and said, "Tell them to give each of them twenty catties of wheat bran and let them make wheat bran cakes themselves. We won't just watch them starve to death. Once we settle down at the Yan people's camp next door, things will gradually get better."

"You can put everyone's minds at ease. Now that the Yan people's camp manager is a young woman, she will definitely treat everyone well in the future."

The foreign laborers were overjoyed and quickly repeated Xin Nian's words to everyone.

Women, children, and the elderly knelt down and kowtowed. Xin Nian was so annoyed by them that she raised her hand and beckoned Chen Ling over. She released a mountain of wheat bran and had the foreigners line up to receive it. Chen Ling then arranged for it to be distributed to them one by one.

An hour later, Xiao Wu led a large group of Hutu tribesmen away, full of pride and arrogance.

Xin Nian looked at her elderly father who had walked up to her, somewhat curiously, "What's wrong with her? She looks like a rooster that has won a fight."

strange!
Xin Wenyuan couldn't help but laugh, "Daughter, I'll decide to rename the Yanren camp to Icefield Base No. 2."

"The tax on grain for Xiaowu has been reduced by 10%, for a period of one year."

Xin Nian couldn't help but smile.

Her father is a complete liar.

Xiao Wu felt she had gotten a good deal, with a 10% tax reduction, but in reality... taking in so many women, children, and elderly people was quite a challenge.

Xin Wenyuan stood with his hands on his hips, gazing into the distance, a sense of pride welling up within him.

"From now on, we'll fence off this area, that area, and the area in front of us. As the population grows, we'll expand outwards."

"Those who come to join us can also go to Base Two, where Base Two will receive some corresponding preferential policies."

"Stingy." Xin Nian chuckled, took his father's hand, and said, "Let's go home for dinner."

At the same time, Yan Xi suddenly opened her eyes and met Ling Luo's gaze as she stepped into the room.

Soon, a clear voice appeared in the minds of all the core ability users.

“A large number of mutated plants have appeared 30 miles away and are approaching our base at an extremely fast speed.”
