Chapter 259

"Let's transport all these back to the tribe!" Yu Sui stood in front of the stored seeds, found the potatoes reserved for seeds, and waved his hand to let the small orcs he brought come and move them.

It turned out that they were here to work. A group of small orcs breathed a sigh of relief. Some of the rabbits had even broken out in cold sweat along the way, and only now did they have the mood to wipe the sweat off.

Everyone came forward and carried a bag of potatoes back.

If these potatoes belonged to the Snow Werewolves, three or five people could carry them back in one trip.

Yu Sui was not sure about the specific strength of the small orcs, so he called some more over.

The cloth bags used by the Heitu tribe to store potatoes were all provided by the Minotaur. They had a similar capacity to the ton bags that Yu Sui had seen in his previous life, but they were made of linen. Although they had several layers of sewing, they were not as strong as the ton bags.

According to his guess, these orcs might need two or more to lift one, and if it were dwarves, it would take seven or eight to lift a bag of potatoes.

Unexpectedly, most of these orcs, who have transformed into human form and are an average of 1.67 meters tall, can actually carry a cloth bag full of potatoes by themselves.

There were more than ten rabbits that were about 1.56 meters tall, but they couldn't do it. It took two people to barely lift the cloth bag.

Yu Sui looked at their size and faces and found that they were not little cubs. They should be the small dwarf rabbits he had seen yesterday. They were small in animal form and smaller than their peers when they turned into human form. They looked like young human boys and girls.

Seeing them working hard, Yu Sui measured his own strength, then looked at the huge bag, and wisely took a pile of animal skins and followed them.

The little black cat Maomao was hiding not far away. When he saw the young chief of the Heitu tribe tell these orcs to come to work, his round pupils shrank a little. He lowered his body and slowly backed away. He only sped up and ran back when he was far away.

Yu Sui had been pretending to stare at the little black cat casually. When he saw the little guy run away, he sighed with regret.

It seems that the cat-stroking plan will not be realized in the short term. Cats are always full of vigilance no matter which world they are in...

I have no choice but to work hard for now, and slowly I will get it one day.

But he was also a little puzzled. With so many small orcs, the cat, mouse and rabbit tribes combined only had this one little cub. Could it be that the cub ran too slowly during the escape and was caught first?

This is very suspicious. Even if the cubs are slow, their parents will not give up their children easily. But among so many orcs, only this little cub managed to escape.

He also observed that there were several couples among these orcs, all of whom had depressed expressions and sad eyes. Several of the females looked dazed, and no one knew what they were thinking with their dull eyes. Their partners were standing beside them, comforting them sadly.

Yu Sui intuitively felt that it was related to the matter of the cubs. After all, there was more than one old orc among these orcs.

However, this kind of thing cannot be asked to the victim. If there is really some hidden secret, it will easily evoke their negative emotions. It seems that I have to remember to ask about this matter when Dahua comes back.

Time passed quickly while they were thinking, and they soon reached the edge of the tribe. Yu Sui hurriedly quickened his pace and walked in front of the orcs, leading them to his own yard.

Since the snow wolves have not built a new house yet, although their own foundations have been planned near Yu Sui's house, they are still empty for the time being, just right for storing potatoes.

"Okay, just put the potatoes over here. Everyone, be gentle and pour them out."

Yu Sui took them to the back of his house and signaled everyone to pour out the potatoes.

It’s almost time to plant the potatoes. Before planting them in the ground, you need to cut the sprouted potatoes according to the location of the sprout.

In his hometown, everyone grows potatoes this way. His grandparents also grow some potatoes in their own vegetable gardens. Yu Sui has seen this since he was a child. Although he has never planted them himself, he still remembers the general process.

He hadn't found any sweet potatoes here yet. He remembered that the planting methods for sweet potatoes were similar to those for potatoes, but sweet potatoes could also be planted from cut sweet potato vines, and the fruits produced were less than those planted from seeds.

Thinking of the sweet potato vines, Yu Sui felt a little greedy. A plate of stir-fried sweet potato vines was tender and sweet. When he was a child, he always thought that they were fed to pigs and didn't like to eat them, but now he began to miss them.

Since the only green vegetable the tribe has now is cabbage, Yu Sui never thought that one day he would miss sweet potato vines.

A group of orcs poured out the potatoes according to Yu Sui's instructions, carefully using less force for fear of damaging the potatoes.

Potatoes are actually not that delicate, but if you accidentally hit the eye, it will affect the probability of sprouting, so it is better to be careful.

After finishing their work, the orcs silently turned their attention to Yu Sui, waiting for his next command.

"Next is to cut the potatoes into cubes, huh." Yu Sui thought about the prototypes of these orcs. The cat tribe must have sharp claws, so the rabbit tribe...

"Wait a minute, I'll find you a tool first." He was too lazy to go around to the main gate to enter the yard, so he simply climbed over the wall from the back of the house and went to the storage room to find the fish scale knife that had been left there for a long time and was covered in dust.

The orcs watched him jump down from the wall again, holding a bunch of fish scales that gleamed in the sun. They said to them with a smile, "Come on, each of you will have a fish scale knife. If the cats find claws more convenient, they can use them."

After saying that, he piled the fish-scale knives on the ground and waited for everyone to come forward and take them.

The cats looked at each other and no one came forward.

The rabbits on the other side hesitated for a long time, but Xiao, who was a little braver, took the lead and walked over. She looked up at Yu Sui, took a handful of money with light and quick movements, and ran back quickly like a thief.

With her leading the way, the other rabbits finally mustered up the courage to step forward, quickly reaching out to grab a handful and running back, as if Yu Sui was a high-level magical beast that would eat orcs.

Standing there calmly, Yu Sui waited until every member of the Rabbit Tribe had received a fish-scale knife. Then he picked up a potato from the ground and said to them, "Look, there are buds on each potato."

It was the first time for these orcs to hear this word. They stared at the potato in Yu Sui's hand in confusion, almost staring until a flower bloomed on the potato.

Yu Sui walked back and forth in front of them with potatoes, pointing out the buds on the surface of the potatoes. "See? This is what it looks like."

A cat girl timidly asked, "Is this it?"

Yu Sui turned his head and saw that the girl was also holding a potato in her hand, and her other hand was pointing accurately at a bud.
