  Everyone has dreams, and people become great because of their dreams!

  As the current leader of the Dark Elf tribe, Yege, also known as "Night Moon Enchantress", naturally has her own great dreams - to be a good leader, find an excellent man, have many, many children for herself, and let the originally declining Dark Elf tribe continue to thrive...

  The good news is that after a long time of searching, she finally found the right target and can finally get rid of the embarrassing situation of not having contact with men for decades.

  The bad news is that the most suitable target for giving birth, seems to have no interest in cooperation at all, and is now sitting less than a hundred meters away, enjoying high-end steak with great relish, surrounded by a large group of cow-headed people who are densely packed and impenetrable, making it impossible for her to get close.

  "How detestable, just a tiny bit short." Ye Ge hid in the lush canopy of trees, gazing at the Minotaur tribe dozens of meters away, gritting his teeth and feeling utterly disheartened.

  Yes, just the night before last, she had confidently infiltrated the tribe and launched one of her signature stealth attacks, but what was supposed to be a surefire plan turned out to be anything but.

  That despicable guy, actually set up a lot of black-painted thin lines outside his own tent, and the thin lines were also hung with bells. As a result, when he approached without realizing it, the alarm bell suddenly rang throughout the camp, and then a large group of Minotaurs rushed out crazily...

  "I hate the bell!" Thinking of last night's scene, Ye Ge couldn't help but grit her teeth in hatred. "And those show-off Minotaur people, I curse them to all become beefsteaks, medium rare!"

  No, apart from that despicable and cunning human being, those Minotaurs with muscles growing in their brains were also objects of deep hatred for Ye Ge, and this hatred was becoming more and more profound as they met again.

  It is worth noting that for a very long time, the Minotaur tribe had always been the laughing stock of the Dark Elf tribe. Although the lives of the Dark Elves were also very difficult, at least they could fill their stomachs through fishing and gathering, so looking at those Minotaurs who could only gnaw on grass roots and tree bark, Ye Ge and the Dark Elves had always been filled with a sense of superiority.

  But who would have thought that in just a few dozen days, the Cow Head tribe, which was originally poor and struggling to make ends meet, suddenly underwent a magnificent transformation, becoming wealthy and arrogant, with an air of superiority, and even walking with the swagger of a nouveau riche, as if they had stumbled upon the legendary pirate king's treasure.

  The original shabby camp was directly demolished and rebuilt, a large number of building materials were transported from the ship to the tribe, and the pirate prisoners began to build under the whip, turning the entire Minotaur tribe into a construction site.

  In fact, according to Lin Taiping's original plan, he was going to build a bungalow for the Niu Tou people directly, but Tulou insisted on holding onto his tent and swore that eating roasted whole lamb would only be delicious if they sat inside the tent.

  What a strange hobby! Lin Taiping was speechless, but since the cow-headed people were so stubbornly insisting, he could only take out his backup plan, burn all those old and tattered tents with one fire, and then move in dozens of luxurious tents purchased on Rod Island.

  These luxurious tents, originally used by nobles for hunting and camping, were not only windproof and waterproof but also luxurious and magnificent. The internal facilities were complete, and several dark elves who sneaked in to explore returned dazed and speechless, knowing that the velvet beds alone inside the tent were worth hundreds of gold coins.

  Apart from this, the original things in the tribal camp were all discarded without hesitation. The jars and barrels of smoked meat were thrown away as waste, piled up like small hills, which made the Dark Elves outside look very painful, even with a urge to pick these things back.

  Of course, the Minotaur didn't mind at all, because what was originally an empty warehouse was now packed to the brim with towering piles of supplies. They could come and take whatever they wanted whenever they pleased - food, meat, fabric, building materials, daily necessities... in short, anything you needed could be found here.

  Fine white rice, golden ham, blue and white porcelain vases from the East, soft and smooth five-colored fabrics, brand new kitchen utensils with a silver glow, expensive red wood furniture... To be honest, these things are not placed together one by one, but rather piled up in large quantities, just like some noble is preparing to move house.

  "Damn it, what kind of fortune have these guys stumbled upon?" Ye Ge and An Jingling hid outside the camp every day, their eyes fixed on those supplies with a strong sense of injustice, "Why? Why do we have to patch up our clothes, while these stupid cows get to wear top-grade silk robes and roll around in the mud without any care?"

  Especially that born-to-eat idiotic bull tribe leader, who does nothing every day but sits at the camp entrance sleeping, eating his fill and then sleeping again. And to make matters worse, he deliberately does this in front of a large group of dark elves, hugging a big pile of roasted chicken legs and gnawing away... What's most infuriating is that each time, he gnaws on one and throws one away, is he intentionally provoking and showing off?

  Envy, jealousy, and hatred! After observing for several days in a row, the Dark Elves were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, yet they were also tortured by curiosity to the point of insomnia. The God of Darkness above, what is going on here? Why did these stupid cows just go out for one trip and come back suddenly rich overnight?

  "I don't understand, I really don't understand." Ye Ge frowned and shook her head, her two pointed ears standing up involuntarily and starting to sway gently, a habitual movement that whenever this beautiful woman made, it meant her heart was filled with confusion and distress.

  Are they going out to rob? Are they digging up the pirate king's treasure? Or are beef prices skyrocketing in the human world, selling for tens of thousands of gold coins per catty?

  "Pfft, you're the one who's going to sell meat!" In response to this questioning, Tuluo naturally angrily retorted, yet proudly patted his chest and said, "What's this? Think about when we were on Rhode Island, how many nobles came to desperately curry favor with us. One time I just mentioned that I'd never eaten horse meat, and Cohen roasted his favorite steed..."

  Don't be ridiculous! Ye Ge rolled her beautiful white eyes, she wouldn't believe such nonsense even if you killed her. Stop joking around, how could humans possibly get along peacefully with the Dark Elves, let alone treat them as honored guests? Even bragging has its limits, okay?!

  But soon, Ye Ge had no choice but to believe it, because Tulou took out a large pile of noble crests and many, many invitations to balls, and even a love letter written by a noblewoman. Heaven knows how this noblewoman could have such strange aesthetic tastes, perhaps she was influenced by Lin Taiping and Lilia?

  At this moment, Ye Ge was thoroughly shocked and confused, even feeling that his worldview of several decades was about to collapse: "You... what exactly did you... wait, could it be because of that despicable guy?"

  Fortunately, she guessed correctly this time. Turu nodded vigorously with a grateful face, and his gaze at Lin Taiping was like looking at the messenger of the Dark God: "That's right, that's right, all of this is Lin's credit. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't be our Bull Head tribe today!"

  Is this for real? Ye Ge found it even more unbelievable, that despicable, sinister and cunning little white face, actually managed to bring about a complete reversal of fortune to the entire Niu Tou Ren tribe in just over a month's time. What exactly did he do?

  "This is it...” Toru proudly puffed out his chest, stroking his beloved cow horn. “Nothing much, Lin just took us to the island of Rod, had those nobles go into a small black room, then had them strip naked, and then we followed in, and then they paid up, and even fought to pay!"

  Nobles? Little black houses? Stripping? Paying? Ye Ge listened to the song and felt dizzy, as if a big bucket of porridge had been poured into his brain. What were these messy things? Were those nobles all masochists?

  "Hmph, with your IQ, you definitely won't understand." Lilia chimed in proudly, yet also admiringly closed her eyes, and the cow's eyes sparkled with little stars. "In short, my dear is the most intelligent and outstanding... whoever that is, don't try to steal him from me!"

  "Only a ghost would want to fight with you!" Ye Ge could only continue rolling her eyes, almost to the point of not being able to roll them back, "A group of idiots, I have no interest in his brain, I'm only interested in his body!"

  Although that's the case, after several days of observation, Ye Ge became more and more interested in what Lin Taiping had done, to the point where her mind was filled with question marks for the past few days, and she was tormented by curiosity to the point of complete insomnia.

  Now, looking at Lin Taiping sitting in front of the tribe's gate, leisurely eating a pan-fried pork chop, Ye Ge's curiosity reached its peak. After two hours of hesitation, she finally couldn't bear it and jumped down from the treetop, cautiously approaching him.

  "I'm just going to ask, I'm just going to ask!" She told herself, and couldn't wait to find out what kind of magic that human had used to make the Cow Head Tribe turn over a new leaf.

  But Ye Ge didn't notice that when she carefully approached him, Lin Taiping, who was concentrating on his lunch, suddenly revealed a smiling face.

  Well, as the old saying goes, curiosity not only kills the cat but also a dark elf!
