Chapter 300: Searching for Salt

After Bai Yingying established the Glorious Tribe, she issued countless new rules, and the tribesmen were used to them, so this time everything went extremely smoothly again.

The discussions in the tribe soon died down, but the tribe was a little more lively than before.

The females are greatly disturbed by the males seeking mates.

But these widowed males were once the victors in courtship, far surpassing the single males. Their methods of pursuing females are endless, and some females, unable to withstand their passionate offensive, naturally accept them.

At one time, there were many happy events in the tribe.

Bai Yingying is still as busy as usual, and the husbands are also doing their jobs, with no one idle.

Mu Zhaozhao has been extremely diligent since the new regulations were issued, and always stays in the Wu Hospital until very late.

In addition, with the arrival of the Red Flamingo Tribe, the Brilliant Tribe also gained an extremely eye-catching scenery.

From afar, the flamingos stand in the shallow water, leisurely preening their feathers, or spread their wings and hover over the lake. As they fly low over the lake, they often pick up a fish, their graceful movements pleasing to the eye.

Especially in the evening, the huge Caohu Lake is always bustling with people.

At the lake in the heart of the Glorious Tribe, the saltwater crocodiles that live there, enjoying the water, would enter the water at this time, and some of the orcs would also come to play in the water. Sometimes, if you weren't paying attention, you'd accidentally step on a submerged saltwater crocodile, which would be both hilarious and embarrassing.

In the distance on the right side of the lake are flocks of flamingos, flying and spinning gracefully and leisurely on the lake, as if they are dancing.

On the left are baby elephants bathing and playing in the water, accompanied by melodious elephant calls coming from afar.

The sky is like a huge painting, dyed red by the sunset. The scene is as beautiful as a poem or painting.

Bai Yingying stood on a high place and looked out over the entire Caohu Lake, feeling as if she was in a warm and peaceful fairy tale world.

However, after a while, when the weather cools down completely, this kind of scene will no longer appear.

"In a while, we'll have to start stockpiling winter supplies." Bai Yingying sighed, "This year's autumn hunt will probably be more difficult."

Since last year, a large number of refugee orcs from the south have poured into the central region, making the once abundant resources scarce. Especially in the spring, the orcs, who had been hungry for a winter, hunted in large numbers.

If there is excessive hunting, the number of wild animals will naturally decrease sharply.

Even though the Glorious Tribe's hunting teams would spare wild animal cubs or pregnant mothers in the spring, by the time summer came, it was still obvious that hunting was more difficult than before.

What's more, in autumn, when the orcs need to stock up on supplies, it will definitely be even more difficult.

In the past, it was difficult to hunt due to insufficient hunting ability and easy death.

It is now difficult to find prey, and even more difficult because you have to compete with other orcs for prey, which is even more dangerous.

However, Bai Yingying has been preparing since summer.

Food easily rots in the hot summer, and other tribes do not have a high demand for prey. All the wild animals hunted by the tribe and the wild vegetables and fruits picked will be put into her system backpack.

Little by little, I saved a lot.

Her system backpack was almost never empty, and every time she received an expansion scroll as a reward, she would directly consume it.

When the weather cools down, you can take out some wild vegetables and fruits and make them into dried vegetables and preserved fruits to eat in winter. This will also free up some space for other foods.

"Yeah." Xiang Rao turned his head to look at Bai Yingying, "The prey is okay, but I'm afraid salt will be harder to find this year."

There was lake salt last year, but after more than half a year, it has affected all parts of the Orc Continent.

The frequent turf wars have left the salt-producing areas unstable and production declining. Furthermore, the current chaotic situation on the mainland has created various transportation problems, which will undoubtedly significantly reduce the amount of salt available.

Salt will be a big problem this year.

Bai Yingying's face turned more worried when she heard this. "I have some salt here, but it's far from enough."

The tribe had a large population and needed to preserve meat. She had used a lot of the salt she received as a reward for giving birth to a child, and the rest was just a drop in the bucket for preserving meat.

She has a full set of tools for purifying salt, but currently only uses them to purify the crude salt she obtained in exchange. She has yet to find a salt mine or a salt-producing lake.

With a complete guide to mining in hand, she naturally organized a team to search for various mines. However, none of the teams she sent out have found any salt mines so far.

She knew of abundant salt production, not only in coastal areas but also in Earth's famous Qinghai Lake salt. However, this location was far too far to reach the Orc Continent. A round-trip flight would take at least two months, making transportation a major challenge and requiring a significant amount of manpower.

Bai Yingying thought for a moment and then said, "The cub will be born in a few days. After this one is born, I will go out to look for salt myself."

She only needed to bring the large warehouse with her, plus the space in the system backpack, to bring back a large amount of raw salt. This was much more efficient than sending people out.

Now that the tribe is on the right track, with Xiang Rao and the others around, she feels more at ease and can solve this problem herself.

After all, she foresaw that this winter would be difficult. A lack of food would lead to more fighting. She had to ensure her people consumed enough salt daily to be in top condition for the harsh winter.

Xiang Rao fell silent upon hearing this. He knew Bai Yingying's intentions. Using the least amount of manpower and resources, bringing back a large amount of salt was the best option. However, he was also concerned about his partner's safety.

He sighed, "I'm worried about you."

"It's okay. Ajing and I are traveling light, which is safer." Bai Yingying didn't plan to bring anyone else this time. She was a double silver-level woman, and with the silver-level phoenix, traveling would be more low-key and convenient.

This will also allow more beastmen to stay and protect the tribe.

Xiang Rao was about to say something when he heard a shout from behind him.

"Yingying."

Bai Yingying heard the sound and turned her head to look.

Luo Chen was standing at the entrance to the rooftop, smiling faintly as he asked, "The kids are lining up now, getting ready to go take a bath by the lake. Are you free? Do you want to go with us?"

The pups at the nursery have to bathe every day in the summer. Because it's inconvenient to carry water, the older pups line up and are taken to the lake by their teachers for a bath and some water play.

This is also the little ones' favorite bath time.

Bai Yingying was usually busy and rarely participated in the cubs' bathing. Thinking that she was about to go on a long trip, she agreed, "Okay. I'll go with you."

She turned around and asked, "Arao, do you want to join us?"

Xiang Luo reached out and touched her head. "I still have things to take care of. You and Achen go ahead."

"Okay." Bai Yingying smiled at him and turned to leave.

Seeing her coming, Luo Chen took the initiative to greet her, holding Bai Yingying's hand, and whispered: "Lin Yi and Chi Yao were still asking today, saying that A Niang hadn't visited them for several days. That's why I came to ask you..."

The two left the rooftop hand in hand.
