"It's still early. We'll start working in shifts. We need to keep an eye on the fire and make sure it doesn't go out. Remember to add firewood. We need to keep boiling the seawater. There's nothing to worry about."

...

After a simple setup, Maoduoduo led everyone in preparing the food.

She took advantage of the surrounding environment to guide everyone in identifying ingredients that could be added to cooking to make the food taste much better.

This kind of cooking and living was quite leisurely, but it also eased some of the fatigue of the orcs brought on by the previous hardships and tribulations. It wasn't that they didn't want to continue fighting and seek justice for their fallen brethren.

However, everyone's wounds were still there, and the city still seemed too empty.

Urging everyone to seek revenge will only exacerbate their pain and torment.

Now, CatDodo is simply leading everyone to hunt and farm. Our White Tiger City can no longer rely on establishing important trading points to profit as it did in the past.

But it doesn't matter, they simply cleared out the wild animals in the vicinity and cleaned up the roadside as well, so that everyone would know that White Tiger City was back and that everyone would continue to protect this common home.

They waited until nightfall to return, carrying their heavy prey.

As expected, Maoduoduo was right; cooperation could bring them more benefits.

For the first time, everyone started using their brains and cooperating to hunt quite a few prey. It was much easier than before, and some of the wounded orcs felt they had found a reason to live.

For orcs like them, being injured or maimed means becoming inhuman. If it weren't for places like White Tiger City that require constant human intervention, they would all choose to leave on their own, going wherever they please to meet their end.

But now, everyone has smiles on their faces, carrying heavy prey, and thinking about what they will eat next.

The cats know a lot, and they have gradually found enjoyment in life, making their days more interesting and fulfilling.

It was at this moment that an orc couldn't help but follow CatDodo and boldly asked, "What's the point of just boiling seawater? Our goal is to get salt!"

"Yes, it's salt." Cat Duoduo smiled mysteriously. "Let's go, I'll show you the salt when we get back."

Others were puzzled, but out of curiosity, they followed along.

All that could be seen was the guards yawning. Although they were sleepy, it didn't stop them from adding firewood, keeping the flames burning brightly without any sign of stopping.

At this moment, Maoduoduo came over, simply removed the spoon, and then poked the bottom with a tree root with the bark peeled off. After sensing something, he took the initiative to ask someone to clean the flames under the stone pot and show everyone what was inside.

At first, many people were indifferent, glancing at it casually before their gaze lingered on it.

They couldn't believe what they were seeing, and their voices became stammering and strained, "This...it's salt?"

Are they dreaming?

CatDodo smiled and said, "That's right, it's salt. And those pots over there, please keep a close eye on the heat and make sure the flames don't go out."

"yes!"

The others couldn't understand what was going on, but they all instinctively believed in Maoduo's arrangements and quickly got to work.

The snake cubs, however, had some free time and curiously went over to inquire, asking in their childish voices, "Mother, is this your method? Boiling seawater produces salt?"

"Hmm. This is relatively simple, isn't it? Besides, it's the only one we can use right now."

Mao Duoduo shrugged.

If she could take advantage of the seaside location, she would have liked to set up a salt field. That would have been the most relaxed and comfortable way to live.

Unfortunately, such a wonderful place is completely monopolized by the merfolk. She doesn't have that opportunity.

She had no choice but to use the boiling method to obtain salt. Fortunately, this method is still effective today, although it consumes some firewood and time, but otherwise it's not too bad.

"Salt, it really is salt."

"A miracle? Could this be a gift from the gods?"

...

Cat Duoduo was both amused and exasperated by their shouts.

I was internally screaming, "It's less a gift from God and more a gift from me!"

What's the use of just trusting in God?

She coughed lightly, reminding everyone to carefully watch the heat. The allure of salt was irresistible, and everyone was excited. Gal was especially grateful to CatDodo.

He wanted to speak further, but was called away by the other orcs. As the city lord, his life was becoming increasingly busy.

As Maoduo watched his figure, she felt for a moment that she was far away from him.

Just then, the snake cubs' excited cries came from inside: "Mother, come quickly! It's the sea! The seawater is so beautiful!"

Cat Duoduo looked over and saw that Snake Cub and the others were still playing and strolling on the beach. On the contrary, Snake Rong, who was following them, seemed a bit out of place, but he was still good-natured and let Snake Cub throw things like ribbons on his head to tease him.

"Pfft, what are you guys doing?"

Cat Duoduo couldn't resist and went over to play with the snake cubs.

Sure enough, having finally arrived at the beach, the goal was to have a blast.

They didn't go into the sea easily; they just played around, picked up seashells, and caught clams to eat. Time passed by unnoticed.

The next day, they were boiling seawater again. The large stone pot boiled for more than a day, and they only obtained one-fifth of the salt. The amount was pitifully small, but it was very precious to the orcs.
