night.

The beasts helped carry their share of meat back to the cave.

It finally became quiet outside the wooden house.

"Wow! So much meat! Brother, how are you so amazing?!" Xiao Fu looked at Su Jianyuan with admiration.

Seeing the mountain of meat reminded me of a dream I had as a child.

He used to dream that he fell into a world full of flesh, with white flesh all around him. This was his dream come true!

Su Jianyuan laughed and ruffled Xiao Fu's hair into a mess, "There will be more to come."

Lin Xia looked at the meat that was almost filling the yard with worry.

"Didn't I tell you to give out more? How come there's still so much left? We're almost out of room to put it all."

Now that the family has more and more supplies, Su Tang no longer needs to take extra food from the farm, but the family still eats food from the farm.

The produce grown in Su Guodong's fields was used as payment to the orcs, and also sent out to exchange for other supplies.

With the meat I had stockpiled before, the house is already full.

Two small warehouses were also built outside the backyard, and they were both full.

Before, we were afraid of not having enough meat to eat; now, we have so much meat that we can't even store it all.

“One orc has already given away a portion, we can’t just give the rest away for free.” Su Jianyuan looked innocent, but his tone was incredibly irritating.

Su Tang's lips twitched. If this happened in another tribe, her brother would definitely get a beating for his mouth.

While others toil away just to fill their stomachs, he has so much meat that he can't possibly share it all.

After hearing this, Lin Xia said nothing more and resigned herself to dealing with the remaining meat.

Although the orc lads outside are all very nice, if you give them away for free once or twice, people will gradually take it for granted.

Wise people uphold humanity; only fools test it.

They were busy until late, and Lin Xia didn't have time to cook, so she simply set up the stone slabs again, and the family sat together to eat stone slab barbecue.

The whole family ate to their hearts' content.

As a result, only a small corner of the mountain of meat was eaten.

...

the next day.

Instead of going hunting, Su Jianyuan led a group of beastmen and found a bamboo bear beastman to guide them to the bamboo bear tribe to mine iron ore.

The iron ore brought by the bamboo bear orcs has been used up.

After making his five sets of weapons, along with his mother's kitchen knife and his father's two hoes and shovels, they were all gone.

He still needs a lot of iron ore, and luckily there was a bumper harvest yesterday, so his house is full of food. He can leave home for a while without worry.

Before leaving, Lin Xia prepared a lot of luggage for him.

"Second son, it's windy on the road, don't catch a cold. These are clothes your mother made, and also these dried meats, preserved fruits, pig's trotters, and lamb legs. Take plenty to eat on the road. You won't have time to cook while you're on the road, so don't go hungry..."

The luggage, in large and small bags, was almost as much as the luggage of the entire group.

The other orcs watched with envy.

Even in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, no orc goes out with such extravagance, carrying so many supplies.

Su Jianyuan's mother treated him and Atang just as well, something they had never seen before.

If their mother weren't still alive, they would all want to call Lin Xia "Mother".

Who wouldn't envy a mother like that!

“Mother, this is too much. We will be hunting on the way, so we don’t need to bring so much…”

Su Jianyuan scratched his head, trying to unload some of the burden.

Lin Xia looked at him with a smile, "Say it again, are you bringing it or not?"

"I'll take it! These are all my mother's love for me, of course I'll take them all!"

Su Jianyuan sensed something was wrong and immediately changed his tune.

"Brother, be careful on the road. If you encounter any danger, safety is the most important thing. There will be plenty of opportunities to mine iron ore in the future."

Su Tang also stepped forward and spoke solemnly to Su Jianyuan.

"Okay, my sister still cares about me the most." Su Jianyuan finally felt comforted.

The next second, Su Tang continued.

"No, what I mean is that you must bring back all the orcs you take out intact. If even one is missing, I won't be able to explain it to Hu Shen."

Su Jianyuan: "..." Listen to this! Is this something a younger sister would say?

The family members took turns saying goodbye and watching the procession leave.

This is Su Jianyuan's second time traveling far from home.

He was no longer alone with Lang Zhuang, but led a squad of twenty orcs as they set off in a grand procession.

Wolf Zhuang stayed in the tribe this time because he had to take care of Wolf Nini, and did not go with them.

Wolf Nini is pregnant again, which makes him extremely happy.

They had hunted together with Su Jianyuan before and accumulated a lot of food, enough for their family to live on for a long time.

After seeing Su Jianyuan off, Su Tang sent the five cubs to the tiger clan's female nursery.

After doing all that, Su Tang remembered that there was still no news about the new male who arrived yesterday.

Su Tang was in charge of managing the orcs coming and going in the territory because her father, mother, and brother were all very busy.

"How's that male named Haji doing yesterday?"

She found the orc who had carried Haji away yesterday and asked him.

"I woke up this morning, but I vomited blood and fainted again while digging the cave. I don't know if I can make it through," the orc replied truthfully.

If he couldn't make it through, wouldn't his older brother have saved him?

That won't do!

Including the night he stayed, he now owes three days' worth of food!

Su Tang strode forward and said, "I'll go take a look."

Haji, barely alive, lay on the lawn at the foot of the mountain.

Perhaps because he had been exposed to the wind all night, his face was even paler than yesterday.
