Under the vigilance of the Tolowa hunters, the exploration fleet rested for three days at the Redwood Tribe's territory, but never entered the village of the tribe. The great chief of the Redwood Tribe appeared twice, wanting to negotiate with the fleet to exchange for some useful bronze weapons.
"What do you want? We don't have much grain, can't trade it with you. However, the freshly caught fish and shrimp can be exchanged!..."
At the first meeting, the great chief's eyes were still full of wariness.
"Moreover, if you covet the tribe's villages, hunting grounds, and fields... it will be a fight to the death!"
"Hmm..."
Exploration Captain Zuwaro was at a loss for words. He rubbed his temples and said with a smile.
"I heard that your Redwood Tribe has many excellent hunters who know the ways of survival in the forest and the Northern Land! We will keep heading north; can we hire some hunters and guides to accompany the fleet on our journey?"
