Chapter 1159: Where Does the Heart Lie?

"Oh, so that's how it is. Now I understand completely. Since it's this kind of medicinal material, you can take it back. However, the fact that you said it can kill the worms in the stomach really caught my attention. Now I also want to know if there are actually worms in my stomach. Can I eat this medicine and kill them directly?

You all know that no one wants to have a bunch of worms in their stomach."

The official only shook his head faintly; they still had to refuse Baoxi on this matter.

"City Lord, this really won't do. It's not that we won't give it to you; this thing is a product of our Suiren Tribe, so of course, the right to dispose of it still rests in your hands.

But, we can only assume it is very likely to be a Chinaberry Tree. However, there are simply too many Grass and trees in the world that look similar. Our ability is insufficient, and we cannot judge whether it is truly Chinaberry Bark. Even the slightest bit of uncertainty is unacceptable.

It must be sent to Huaxia first to let the Huaxia physicians see if it is Chinaberry Bark, and then let them conduct tests using Slaves. Only after confirming that this is indeed a Chinaberry Tree can it be used by you, City Lord.

Of course, there is another way, which is to use the Slaves of the Suiren Tribe here to test the medicine first. If they test the medicine and there are no problems, then you, City Lord, can also use the medicine. We must be rigorous."

Baoxi stroked his beard: "Ah, so that's how it is. Then you should send the things to Huaxia first, and then conduct the tests right here. There are so many Slaves, that should be enough for you to use, right? Let them try it first, and then I will see how the situation is."

"No problem, City Lord. As long as you find the Slaves, we can test the medicine for you. As long as they have an effect after taking it and there are no other problems, this medicine can be used by you."

Baoxi nodded very satisfied. As for the other things in the package, he didn't care that much anymore. Anyway, they were all useful and wouldn't cause him any harm. Having too much curiosity wasn't very useful either, because he couldn't understand these things anyway. It was better to just leave it like this—don't ask or care. When he needed to give an order, he would just take action.

Giving himself less work, lightening the burden, and being relaxed while waiting for Huaxia to take over his position was also a very good thing.

His house now already had a prototype, and he was looking forward to how it would look after it was fully built. According to what was said, a courtyard was also to be built for him in Huaxia. He didn't know if it would be bigger and better. The one he lived in before was actually quite good, it was just a bit difficult if his whole family wanted to move in. Now, after counting, it seemed he had a few too many women.

He couldn't even remember how many children he had; anyway, there were many, many of them. But he wasn't afraid; Huaxia would raise and nurture them. If he wanted to have enough influence in Huaxia, then the more children he had, the better.

After all, no matter how one thought about it, as long as they were children he had fathered, their hearts would definitely be toward him, not toward Baifeng. If there were any problems later, they would definitely help him.

Unfortunately, Baoxi was not yet aware that most of his children had no feelings for him. If it weren't for the fact that he had searched for him after much effort, some of them wouldn't even know they were the Tribal Chief's children, and wouldn't even know they had such a father.

However, because of the era, and because Baoxi relied entirely on his own memory and impressions, there were definitely children among the many who were found incorrectly—children who had nothing to do with him at all. But now they couldn't be identified. Perhaps he still had biological children out in the wild who hadn't been found by him.

However, this was not the main problem. The main problem was that the hearts of some children had already begun to lean toward Huaxia. Because they were young, their awareness of the Suiren Tribe was not that strong, and their feelings for the Suiren Tribe were not that deep.

Now that they had suddenly arrived at a better, more affluent place, and their lives had suddenly become better, a sense of closeness would naturally arise.

Furthermore, Huaxia had been telling them about the concept of Huaxia, making them understand that they were Huaxia people, not just people of the Suiren Tribe, and making them rank Huaxia ahead of the Suiren Tribe in their hearts.

Such education and rhetoric were slow and subtle, allowing these children to accept such ideas inadvertently.

And looking at reality, it was very successful. At least a few children had very obvious leanings. Even Chengqie had accepted Huaxia from the bottom of his heart, though he still ranked the Suiren Tribe before Huaxia.

In terms of education, Huaxia was naturally the best of this era. However, Baifeng's strongest point was brainwashing. Of course, Baifeng's current brainwashing method could be said to be very simple and weak; it could only be a long-term, slow change. It couldn't make you change immediately after just one contact. After all, Baifeng was not a pyramid scheme leader, and he had never been in a pyramid scheme.

So he didn't know what brainwashing should be like. He just relied on a little bit of what he had heard before, plus his ability to fool people in this era, to summarize a usable brainwashing method. It could even be said that it didn't count as brainwashing, because when you tell everyone, everyone can accept it, because it is inherently correct and there are no problems.

It just had a stronger influence and transformative effect on these incoming Huaxia people.

It would probably be difficult for Baoxi to rely on these children of his in the future, because children who could be loyal to Baoxi were poor at learning and couldn't grasp it; Huaxia would never let such people become officials.

The smart ones who learned quickly had already integrated into Huaxia faster. They were probably not very willing to carry out the orders or requests of their father. Children like Chengqie were still very rare.

Speaking of Chengqie, the deal and benefits that Sanxin and the others had negotiated with Chengqie were agreed to by Chengqie, and he was very satisfied. It had already been agreed that they would go again next year. However, after his class, Sanxin asked him to go and talk again. The sudden change made Chengqie think that Sanxin was going to go back on his word. After all, the benefits these people gave were indeed a bit much. It was entirely possible that they felt they had lost out and wanted to take the benefits back.

But Chengqie was determined and would never agree, because he didn't want the benefits he had obtained to slip away. This was the first benefit he had earned in Huaxia, and it was also a wonderful use of knowing his own identity in Huaxia.
