Chapter Ten, Economic Sanctions in Ancient Times!

Everything I do in this isolated place is for the sake of the countless lives of my people in Xigu, and yet you dare to use trivial matters as a threat against me. Can you represent all the tribes?!

Intelligent husband opened his mouth and stammered, standing still unable to speak, then his body swayed and staggered backwards.

Dear King, my name is Zhifu. It doesn't matter which tribe I belong to. Now we represent all tribes. Your statement has made us very anxious. Without salt, it is difficult for us to preserve enough meat. Without grain, the situation becomes even worse, leaving us with no way out. That would be a dire situation.

Give him the fan!

Even if these leaders have integrity and refuse to accept handouts, what about the people within the tribe? What will they do and think?

Okay.

These five tribes have a population of over a thousand, with more than one Qi Refiner in charge, indirectly controlling many small tribes. They are the true representatives of the so-called "Tribal Alliance" in front of us.

In the era of Yao Yun, there was a saying, "When fighting, don't just hit the body, but aim for the face. The best way to shame and anger someone is to give them a few big slaps, leaving them with a swollen nose, a bruised face, and their dignity shattered.

Are you threatening me?

Around Xidu, there are five tribes with the strongest power, namely the Black Rhino Tribe, the Red Fox Tribe, the Snake King Tribe, the Rock Tribe, and the Stone Mountain Tribe.

Several representatives of the alliance showed an eager expression on their faces, and hurriedly ran towards their own tribe. As for Zhifu, no one paid attention to him except for the contempt of the people in Xidu. He collapsed weakly on the ground.

Mild Yao Yun suddenly raised his voice, and this great contrast gave people a shocking feeling like thunder.

Just as he secretly exclaimed in alarm, Yao Yun's face changed, and he drew out the Sword of the Overlords, pointing it at Zhi Fu.

Yao Yun is deeply moved. Playing economic sanctions and trade wars in ancient times is really a bit of bullying. Their thinking is still stuck at the level of solving problems with force!

Yao Yun sneered. He really didn't want to stand in opposition to all the tribes. Previously, he had to do so in order to strike the barbarian tribes, but now that the effect of the strikes had been achieved, he needed to find a scapegoat and make an example of them.

And the second book of Tian is a virtueーmean!

Yao Yun didn't say much and ordered, "Today, I am going to have a meeting with the leaders of various tribes. The latest time for the meeting is this evening. Those who are late will not be waited for. Also, Zhi Fu and his Leopard Tribe are not needed here!"

After listening, the leaders of each tribe all showed a look of horror on their faces.

Xidu suffered heavy losses, but who knows if there is a backup plan.

Yao Yun: "A mere commoner dares to threaten this king? How barbaric!"

This is an intangible bondage, compared to the past use of military force to suppress and enslave, this intangible control reaches the innermost, invisible yet possessing immense power.

Zhifu was furious, pointing at his "companion" with his finger, but unable to utter a single word.

Enjoying a good life, who would be willing to live in hardship.

I am here!

Because they led their people into the abyss of suffering.

As Yao Yun shouted to stop, Zhi Fu's face had already swollen into a ball, his features twisted and his mouth crooked, stuttering with extreme anger.

It is impossible to bear the heartache of seeing the people suffer from cold and hunger. Please gather all the leaders in the capital to discuss countermeasures. When have we ever said that we will not sell grain and salt to everyone? No matter how much grain there is in the capital, it is most important for the people to eat their fill!

Of course, they can join forces to attack Xidu, but no one is confident about attacking Xidu.

If encountering a strong enemy, the warriors of the tribe bravely die without frowning, but it is unforgivable to walk towards a dead end despite having good days.

Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!

I'm sorry, but there is no content provided for me to translate. Please provide the content you want me to translate.

All people enthusiastically express their loyalty.

On the one hand, it is to maintain the dignity of King Xi, and on the other hand, it is to give other tribes a way out.

I'm sorry, but there is no content provided for me to translate. Please provide the content you want me to translate.

After Yao Yun finished speaking, the people of Xidu were quite moved, feeling that they had encountered a good king who cared for the people, and most of the envoys of the tribal alliance were greatly relieved, and the previous animosity suddenly disappeared.

After speaking, he got up and left.

However, among the envoys who came to pay homage at present, none of them came from the five major tribes.

At this moment, the envoys of other "tribal alliances" also turned back, no longer lamenting, but restoring their cold and proud expressions, standing behind Zhifu to support him.

Among them is the Leopard Tribe where Zhifu is located, and their leader has also arrived.

Not long after, it will be the harsh winter. If the Xidu area refuses to trade, then they will suffer from food shortages as before. Many people from the tribe will freeze or starve to death in this winter, and they will have to hunt for their lives in the harsh winter.

Only then did Zhi Fu, who was feeling proud and complacent, sense that something was amiss.

Before this, they all ignored the fact that their tribe was unknowingly becoming more and more dependent on the prosperous city life. Once the king of Xidu stops trading with them, their good days of the past few years will be completely gone, and they will instantly return to the difficult days they once experienced.

King's generous treatment of us, Zhifu is so unreliable, we are willing to help the King to attack the Leopard tribe, hoping to sell more food for us.

By then, even if the tribe survives the winter, for the tribal leader, he will lose the trust and respect of most of his people.

As a Qi Refiner, Cang Man has the ability to slap his opponent to death with a single palm. However, Yao Yun did not give him the order to kill, so he showed restraint in his attack, leaving his opponent severely injured but not dead.

If Prince Xi becomes desperate, they can join forces.

Previously, when Yao Yun invited them, they ignored him. Now, they are all coming eagerly, respectfully, and obediently.

The one who led Yao Yun's army was a middle-aged man, strong and powerful in appearance, with a decent name, called "Zhifu". The so-called Zhifu, as the name implies, is a wise and capable man, with a shameless name and a ruthless personality.

It seems that the barbarian tribes also fear the capital.

You all...

The big hand, like a blue barbarian palm-leaf fan, directly grabbed the opponent's collar. With his strength as a Qi Refiner, ordinary warriors had no resistance at all. The whole person was half suspended in the air, with hands and feet dancing.

Twilight has not yet fallen, but more than twenty Qi refining masters and hundreds of powerful warriors have already gathered in the bustling city. They are all the strongest leaders of the major tribes.

In the afternoon of that day, nearly a hundred barbarian tribes in the vicinity of Xidu became aware of what had happened today.

The former greatness of Xidu still lingers in the minds of tribal leaders, and no one dares to take risks unless absolutely necessary.

Cang Man executed Yao Yun's orders very strictly, leaped forward, and quickly the other tribal envoys scattered like avoiding a plague.

Upon hearing this, the tribal envoys shook their heads repeatedly.

O great king, please do not misunderstand, this is entirely the idea of Zhifu and the Leopard Tribe, we have always respected you, great king.

No one knows exactly what was said, but it can be roughly understood that it was about him being the representative of the tribal alliance, and King Xi should not treat him like this.

No one can stop people from living a good life. Whoever obstructs, whoever is their enemy, even the tribal leaders are no exception.

The crisp sound of slaps resounded rhythmically, occasionally accompanied by splashes of transparent, murky yellow, and bright red liquid in the air, even knocking out a few teeth.

Thus, it is evident how miserable Zhi Fu has become.

The autumn wind is bleak, and the chiefs of various tribes can only sigh helplessly.

Yao Yun was aware of these circumstances, so she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Which tribe are you from?"

Great King...

When it comes to "forcing", Zhifu's tone becomes heavier, and the threat is evident in his words, as if he is warning Yao Yun.

Yao Yun sneered in his heart, thinking that just because he was called Zhi Fu, he believed he was really clever. What a foolish person, being sold and still feeling proud.

He took a step back, and the people of those "brother" tribes did not come to help him, but instead retreated even further.

Fortunately, there is the Leopard Tribe to be the scapegoat!

Not to mention that Xidu has not pushed them to a dead end now, it's just a small punishment.

Yao Yun: "You said you are a representative of the alliance, so may I ask if your opinion represents the opinions of the other representatives?"
