Chapter 135

Thinking of this, Yu Sui felt a little worried.

"Raising rabbits? The meat of these rabbits is not as tender as that of gray rabbits. If you want to eat them, I can catch some gray rabbits for you." Qi frowned and said.

Yu Sui said with a smile, "It's not just for food. I raise them like farming, for long-term development. Rabbits are fertile. Despite their small size, they can have at least a dozen babies in a litter. If there are no natural enemies, we can feed them plenty of food. If all the baby rabbits can survive, then the tribe will gradually no longer rely on hunting for meat."

The reason why snow wolves are prone to food shortages in winter is that their methods of obtaining food are too simple, and force alone is not enough.

What's more, they all have big bellies, which means that there are many monsters here and they are big in size, but it is not easy for them to survive in winter.

Meat is not easy to preserve, but it is different if it is farmed. It can be killed and eaten immediately, and it will continue to reproduce.

Yu Sui picked up a lot of alfalfa seeds in late autumn and planted them all the next year. Not only can they be used as food for rabbits, but they can also be used to feed cows when they arrive. Alfalfa is very nutritious and is perfect for feeding livestock.

Qi recalled that he had heard that Yu Sui wanted to raise animals before, but he didn't expect that Yu Sui would choose to raise white rabbits, which were useless animals in the eyes of the snow werewolves.

"Okay, then I'll catch some more alive ones for you." Although still a little confused, Qi still confirmed Yu Sui's idea.

Yu Sui scratched his chin. "I don't know if I can raise gray rabbits. I can try to raise two cages. Gray rabbits can do magic, so I'm afraid raising too many will only cause more trouble. But their meat is really tender."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over the gray-shelled ducks and pheasants beside him, "Brother Qi, if you have time, can you help me catch a few live pheasants and ducks? I also want to try raising these two kinds of birds. Not only can I eat meat, but if I raise them well, they can also lay eggs every day."

As for the problem of flying, our ancestors had solved it long ago by cutting off half of their wing tips from time to time so that they could not fly high.

Xu and Notting also came over and said, "Raising pheasants and ducks is great. If you can really keep them alive, you'll have endless chicken feet to eat."

Even though he hasn't even started yet, Yu Sui is still filled with the joy of harvest. "Yes, there are also braised duck necks, duck feet, duck heads, roast ducks, roast chickens, and salted duck eggs. Oh, I can't even count them all."

"Then what do they eat? Is our food enough to feed them?" Xu discovered the key issue.

Yu Sui thought for a moment, "Rabbits, gray-shelled ducks, and pheasants are all vegetarians. When the weather gets better, they'll have more food. They'll also eat grain, so it's best to do breeding and farming together."

His natural magic alone, even with the addition of tree feathers, would definitely not be enough to grow enough grass for them to eat.

Finally, Yu Sui made the final decision: "Let's keep this white rabbit first, and catch the others next year when it's warmer!"

"You want to make a cage? No matter how big it is, I will make one for you." Qi said, taking the thorn from Yu Sui's hand.

Yu Sui looked at the injured white rabbit and said, "Don't worry, it's just this one. It's been seriously injured after falling into the trap. It won't be able to escape for a while. We need wire to fix these thorns to make a cage. I'll ask Uncle Robert for some."

Qi nodded, his hands moving without stopping. After cutting the porcupine into pieces of meat with bones, he also cleaned up the few rabbits that Ashan had not had time to clean up.

Although the white rabbit's fur is not as magical as that of the monsters, it is snow-white and soft, and Yu Sui likes it very much. In his previous life, if this kind of rabbit fur, which is large and of good quality, was made into clothes, many people would buy it.

At this time, Yu Sui also thought of the problem that he had not had time to think about, which was to improve the clothes of the snow werewolves.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation are the four basic elements of survival. Yu Sui has tried his best to improve the problems of food and housing. As for the problem of transportation, the snow werewolves can run faster than cars, so Yu Sui doesn't need to think of a solution.

Now the only thing left is the clothes. Although he is curvy, as a man, he doesn't think much about this aspect.

In fact, he should have thought of this problem before winter, but unfortunately he was too busy at that time. He had to rush to build a house, store food, and stockpile coal and firewood.

Yu Sui also had to take Qi and a few others to squeeze out time to make pottery blanks. In short, they were very busy.

Now that half of the winter has passed, Yu Sui suddenly thought of this matter.

It just so happened that the female dwarves and snow wolves who were good at making clothes could now spare some time, so Yu Sui planned to draw a few sets of clothes that were easy to move around in for them and let them make them according to their patterns.

Whether they are dwarves or orcs, their potential to survive in such a harsh environment is immeasurable. Just look at those people who are knitting sweaters. In just over a month, these people can even knit sweaters, trousers and gloves.

So if Yu Sui prepared the clothes, they should be able to make them according to the drawings.

In his previous life, Yu Sui didn’t like dressing up much, and as a beast of burden, he had little time to take care of himself.

But he could still remember the style of casual and comfortable clothes, and this was the kind of clothes the Snow Wolf Clan needed most, which would allow them to move around more easily when worn.

He had watched too much anime and TV, so he remembered beautiful skirts and suits. However, such clothes would definitely have a market in the human world, but they were not very practical among orcs.

Imagine a beautiful woman in a red dress or a royal blue fishtail skirt, with muscles bulging on her exposed shoulders, walking with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, and killing a wild boar with one punch...

That scene was too impactful.

But just in case, Yu Sui plans to draw them together. If someone likes them, they can wear them. At least most skirts are quite convenient to move in.

Even underwear had to be made. He exchanged a lot of cotton cloth with Loft, and later Nord gave it as a return gift, which was enough to make underwear for the tribesmen.

If he doesn't make underwear, Yu Sui feels that he will get stye sooner or later...

The shoes also need to be improved. The shoes here are too simple. They are just a piece of animal skin sewn together and wrapped around the feet. If the orc skin was not thick, the soles of the feet would probably be unbearable.

The dwarves' clothing is better than that of the orcs. At least their clothes are divided into inner garments and outer garments, and they also have their own preferences.

Their shoes had soles, but they were hard and far less comfortable than the shoes Yu Sui wore in his previous life. There weren't many styles, but they were definitely better than the orcs' shoes.

At least the dwarves have already paid attention to their clothing. Most female dwarves will get together from time to time to see who has come up with new ideas and how to make clothes and shoes more comfortable and fit.

If the snow werewolves were not tall and good-looking, they would look like homeless people because of the rough animal skins and simple boots they wear.

The Black Wolf Tribe encountered in the Red Grass Tribe were quite annoying, but the clothes they wore were really nice looking. Although the tribesmen all thought they were showy and not like orcs, to be honest, Yu Sui felt that their image management was quite good.
