Chapter 146 Returning with a Full Load
Su Weihua didn't want to explain her conflict with the Snow Wolf Tribe, so she simply replied, "I became partners with the young chieftain of the Stone Forest, so naturally I went to the Stone Forest."
"What about the Snow Wolf Tribe? Are you just going to abandon them like that?" Yuwen was confused and greatly shocked.
Su Weihua raised her eyes and glanced at You Wen indifferently, without saying anything more.
Yuri reached out and pulled his younger sister behind him, then changed the subject with a smile: "Brother Su, how many grass porpoises are you planning to order?"
Su Weihua: "How many do you have here?"
Yuri chuckled upon hearing this: "There are plenty! I bet you wouldn't dare buy them all. You should know that our Earthworm tribe lacks everything, but we don't lack grass pigs. Grass pigs reproduce quickly, with a litter producing fourteen or fifteen pups, which can grow to adult size in eight or nine months. Although we sold a batch of grass pigs before last year's winter season, the grass pigs bred last autumn are ready for market again. I was just about to contact you old friends to see if anyone wants to buy some."
Su Weihua: "I need a large quantity, no less than 30,000 heads."
Upon hearing this, Yuri and his tribesmen gasped in astonishment: "So many?"
“It won’t be all taken away at once, it will be done in batches.” Su Weihua took off the animal skin bag hanging from her waist and handed it to Yuri. “This time, we’ll exchange it for salt powder.”
Yuri paused slightly upon hearing the word "salt powder," then opened the bag, looked at the pale white salt inside, and licked a small pinch with the tip of his tongue.
It's very salty and slightly bitter, but that doesn't affect its edibility.
"Is this lake salt?"
“Sea salt.” Su Weihua briefly explained the origin of sea salt. “It will start circulating in the trade market this month. Chief You also knows what the price of salt is now. Sea salt tastes purer and is cleaner and harmless than freshly mined salt ore.”
"Are you sure this is sea salt? Don't try to fool me with poisonous lake salt."
Yuri remained vigilant. He knew about the deaths caused by the salt from Hongying Lake, and he dared not take these salt powders of unknown origin lightly, otherwise he would be risking the lives of the entire Earthworm Clan.
"It's genuine. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to the Hailing tribe to inquire."
"At the latest, it will be a few days. We will take our people to the eastern trade market and ask them if they have handed over the salt to Shilin for sale. We will then get the answer."
Yuri stared at the calm-looking Su Weihua for a long time before finally gritting his teeth and saying, "Fine, in that case, I can sell you 30,000 grass pigs, but what ratio do you plan to use for the exchange?"
Su Weihua glanced at the sky: "How about we discuss this in detail somewhere else?"
Yuri slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot, please come in."
The next morning, Su Weihua brought back good news: the Earthworm Clan was responsible for delivering the goods, and the first batch consisted of about five thousand grass pigs. Eating only grass pigs certainly wouldn't be enough, but Ling Chengen had already arranged for the logistics personnel to start learning how to make noodles.
Even if she told these people that the readily available tree bark could be used as food for the winter, they would still have doubts.
However, noodles are not easy to make, so it takes a while to learn how.
But as long as some people can learn it, together with those five thousand grass pigs, they can hold out for a while.
Su Weihua brought back two wild boars. Ling Chengen looked at the two wild boars with their necks twisted and estimated their size in his mind.
The grass pig was quite large, bearing a resemblance to the large white pigs of later generations. Its skin was a moss-greenish color, but its body was more robust and larger than that of the large white pigs. This was mainly due to its tall and sturdy front shoulders and its very large waist and abdomen. In particular, the female grass pig, even when not pregnant, had a belly that was very close to the ground...
This grass porpoise weighs at least 2,500 pounds, and the male grass porpoise is even heavier, more than twice the size of the female.
"Why is such a large prey only worth one-third of the price of a horned bull of the same weight in the trade market, or even less?" Ling Chengen was also very puzzled. In the beast world where food and clothing were scarce, such easy-to-raise and fat prey was not common.
Su Weihua raised her hand to cover the tip of her nose, gesturing for her to come closer.
"The taste of grass-fed porcupine is rather unpleasant, and the meat doesn't taste good either."
"Especially when eaten raw, it has a fishy and foul smell." Su Weihua was being relatively polite. Don't be fooled by the plumpness of the grass-fed porcupine and its seemingly large amount of meat; many parts are inedible, especially the part containing the internal organs, which has an extremely foul odor.
Some of the more discerning orcs were unwilling to eat raw grass-fed porcupine meat, and some even vomited after eating it. It was only after he stayed in the Stone Forest for a while and discovered that Ling Chengen often used fire to cook grass-fed porcupine that he realized this prey was no longer difficult to eat.
However, other tribes are not as adept at using fire to cook food as Shilin, so grass hogs still have little market. Only tribes with severe shortages of resources would consider this relatively inexpensive prey.
Ling Chengen rested his chin on his hand and said, "After we finish harvesting the tree wheat, we can consider the issue of grass-fed pig farming."
Su Weihua was not surprised at all. She had already started raising horned cattle, so raising grass hogs was not strange at all.
"Send these two grass pigs to the orcs who cook, so they can have an extra meal."
When the two arrived at the place where they were cooking, they found that smoke was already rising from the ground. Steamed buns were being steamed out and then poured into a large bamboo basket. The buns were still steaming, and the unique aroma of new wheat permeated the entire open space.
Ling Chengen glanced at the steamed buns in the bamboo basket. They were big and plump, but slightly yellow in color. Some of the buns had burst open on top, showing that everyone had worked hard, but each one had its own unique characteristics.
She picked one up, broke it in half and gave it to Su Weihua next to her, then pinched off a piece and popped it into her mouth to taste it.
He finally let out a long sigh of relief.
I was finally able to taste this long-awaited noodle dish.
Su Weihua held the slightly hot steamed bun, and seeing her satisfied expression, she also pinched off a piece and put it in her mouth, chewing it slowly.
The steamed bun was still a little hot, but he didn't open his mouth. Instead, he carefully savored the taste he had never experienced before.
It's hard to describe; it doesn't have the fishy smell of meat, nor is it salty. It seems to have a unique aroma that only plants can have.
But I don't remember a similar taste.
good smell.
He unconsciously ate the half-eaten steamed bun in his hand, glanced at the pile of steamed buns in the bamboo basket, and looked at the vast expanse of cut yellow wheat trees in the distance, feeling secretly alarmed.
With these tree wheat plants, Shilin will definitely have the most comfortable cold season this year.
After eating half of it, he restrained himself from touching the food that was right under his nose, and instead turned to discuss with Ling Chengen the matter of transporting grass pigs over there.
In the end, the matter still fell to him because Ling Chengen was not familiar with the Earthworm Clan.
Apart from the Earthworm tribe, no one else could drive such a large number of Grass Pigs over such a long distance.
This is a unique skill of the Earthworm tribe, and it's very difficult for others to learn it.
The wheat harvest lasted a full 17 days, longer than Ling Chengen had anticipated, but the amount of tree wheat they stockpiled also exceeded expectations.
All the grain warehouses that were excavated in Hanshan some time ago are now full, and even the stone forest has several grain warehouses that have been excavated, which are also full.
And so, on their way back, each of them carried hundreds or even thousands of kilograms of grain.
They in Shilin no longer lack food.
After returning to Shilin, the first thing Ling Chengen did was take a bath under the cover of night. He had been living a very dirty and filthy life lately.
She had turned into a little mud figure.
As soon as she took off her clothes and went into the water, she sensed unusual ripples on the surface.
I was sick a couple of days ago and took two days off.
There are a few words today, but updates will resume later.
