Chapter 86
==================
Lana stood outside for a long time without realizing it, and didn't even react when Mary walked back and forth.
When he came to his senses and walked into the mission hall, he found that Lian Yun and his companions had become friends with the orcs and were getting along very harmoniously.
The Pangolin Orc patted his brother's shoulder and said loudly, "It turns out it was all a misunderstanding. You are so lucky to have met such a kind lord like you."
Lian Yun smiled modestly: "Thank you for the compliment."
During the conversation just now, she had learned that the robbery business that these eight orcs were engaged in was not recognized by most orcs. Moreover, the number of people engaged in this business was only a small part of the total number.
The orcs are divided into two parts.
Most of them live in tribes on the vast grasslands between the desert and the forest. They rely on farming and eating monsters for food. Although their crops are simple, they are barely self-sufficient and rarely disturb the surrounding villages.
Those who make a living by robbery are a small part that has left the main force. They left the grassland one after another due to various reasons. The leader could not keep them, so there was an unwritten agreement that after leaving the grassland, regardless of life or death, nothing would have anything to do with the tribes on the grassland.
The orcs who attacked the isolated village probably left the grassland long ago. They were not under the control of their leader, so there was nothing that could be done about it.
This was the first time in hundreds of years that an orc had disappeared and had his name blatantly dropped.
The bullying has reached its peak, making it difficult for the leader to ignore it.
Lian Yun explained with a natural smile, "I didn't mean to provoke you. My intention was to do this like today. We couldn't find your large tribe, so we had no choice but to invite you to come find us."
Pangolin scratched his head: "Then what is your purpose?"
Although they were chatting now, he still didn't understand why the other party went to so much trouble to find them.
"You've seen how they live now, right? What do you think?"
Pangolin nodded at the eight orcs. "Of course I think it's a good idea. Those of us who live on the grasslands with our leader don't actually advocate burning, killing, or looting. Who is born evil?"
Pangolin calmed down and spoke with some philosophy.
"Now they can have a legitimate business, support themselves, and no longer have to do those bad things. Our leader and I are naturally happy."
Lian Yun smiled and said, "Do you want to give more orcs such job opportunities?"
Pangolin was stunned. At this moment, he also realized Lian Yun's seriousness. Today's matter was far from being as simple as he had imagined.
He lowered his voice and asked tentatively: "So you want to..."
After understanding Lian Yun's intention, he couldn't help but look serious. "If you, my Lord, were a stranger to me and suddenly said something so absurd, I definitely wouldn't believe it. But with the confirmation from these brothers, I think our leader would want to consider this issue."
In fact, the reasons why some orcs left the grasslands were varied, not all of them were for bad things. The original intention of leaving was more to gain more knowledge.
Just like these eight orcs, if there is a proper opportunity to join and understand, they are actually willing to integrate into other races and live in an orderly society.
Every race has its own innate talents.
For example, vampires have unique physical advantages, and their speed and perception are greatly improved.
Humans have not only developed the profession of magician, but also possess extremely strong brains, which, combined with creativity and hands-on ability, can develop the crystallization of art and wisdom.
The orcs' most unique advantage is their physical fitness and strength.
Mining and transporting was as easy as washing dishes for a few orcs. This advantage also limited their development. It was difficult for them to engage in, or perhaps it was difficult for the race to produce, someone with Luo's exceptional creativity and hands-on skills.
If humans are mages, then orcs are shield warriors.
Even if they really want to join human society, even if most of them are friendly and positive, it is difficult to find jobs that suit them in ordinary human society, let alone provide opportunities for the entire race.
Lian Yun naturally also considered this problem. These eight orcs are now doing the work of transportation and mining, but they cannot do this job forever.
Like normal people, when repetitive work accumulates to a certain level, some of them will feel bored, weak and tired.
Everyone needs a better life and more diverse working conditions, and orcs are no exception.
This was the first thought that came to Lian Yun’s mind when he planned to contact the Beast Tribe.
If you want to accept them, you have to consider them from their perspective.
I played a lot of games when I was in Lianyun University. There was a classic line in one of the games: Orcs will never be slaves.
On this continent, Lian Yun truly felt that they existed and had their own dignity and consciousness.
After spending so much time with the first orc he met, Abe, Lian Yun definitely couldn't just treat them as a race or a term.
There are some underground transactions that have trapped the few orcs now, so when Pangolin and the others saw the eight orcs, they thought that Lian Yun was enslaving them.
This proves that the entire orc tribe is still full of wildness and yearns for freedom, so they will stay in the vast grasslands.
And they are friendly, so most orcs will not actively attack other races.
Speaking of this, Pangolin sneered, as if mocking the people in other towns: "To be honest, your town truly amazes me. As the chief's right-hand man, I often handle matters that require my presence outside. Occasionally, when we pass through the town, they are either fully armed and ready to fight at any time, or they actively attack us."
"What about us? There's not even room for negotiation. Like today..." Pangolin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around, taking in the scenery that was rarely seen up close. He felt a mixture of emotions. "In the past, we just watched from afar. Today, we're the rare one to come in."
Smooth floors, the aroma of barbecue, and the atmosphere of busy life.
Everything is within easy reach.
"My Lord, I believe that although this town may not seem as well-developed as other cities, based on your leadership and tolerance, I believe that everything will be fine."
"So do you think your leader would be willing to cooperate with a town like this?"
Pangolin nodded gravely. "I think so, sir. If you have considered the opportunities you can offer, I am sure our leader would be happy to discuss them with you."
He suddenly paused, a trace of embarrassment appearing on his ferocious face. "There's just one thing I hope you can understand. Our leader won't leave the grassland. He's the heart of the grassland. Without him, the tribe will be in chaos."
What this means is that the leader cannot come to the desert, but comes to the town to discuss with Lian Yun.
Lian Yun pretended to think seriously for a few minutes, looked at the people around him, and the people around him cooperated very well with firm expressions and nodded.
After careful consideration, Lian Yun looked at Pangolin and said, "That's fine. To show my sincerity, I'm willing to take my men with me to the Orc Tribe."
The pangolin was overjoyed. "That's wonderful! Your Excellency is so easygoing! Our leader will surely appreciate your sincerity."
Lian Yun's eyes were full of smiles. "But I think going alone isn't enough. I also want to bring some gifts to your tribe. Can you give me some advice?"
Give them a chance and give them gifts?
Pangolin was completely impressed by the girl in front of him who was full of love and aura.
With a solemn and spirited mood, he glanced at the unrenovated farmland outside the open gate of the mission hall.
"That's right. When we came here, we saw that your town seemed to be growing some kind of crop. It was planted on a large scale. It must have had a similar effect to parsnips, right? Could you tell us what it was?"
"That's called wheat, but..." Lian Yun asked curiously, "Does the grassland also grow windbreaks?"
She thought that windbreaks were only grown in places like deserts where there was constant wind and sand.
Pangolin shook his head. "We plant parsnips where the grassland meets the desert because sandstorms are common there. But around the tribe, we plant radishes."
...Parsnips, radishes, do people here have any special preference for this shape?
……etc.
Lian Yun suddenly raised his head: "You mean... radish?"
It was the first time she heard the standard names of crops from her world here.
What shocked and puzzled her was how they knew?
"This..." Pangolin looked embarrassed. It was obviously not a question he could know or answer.
"It's okay," Lian Yun calmed down. Since she was going to meet the leader, she still had many questions to ask, including this one.
"Do you think wheat is suitable as a gift?" she continued the previous topic.
The other party nodded repeatedly: "Actually, anything except parsnips is fine. We need some seeds and planting techniques..."
"This is easy. We are researching more crops." Lian Yun opened the task panel and confirmed the task content again.
Agriculture is the Third Productive Force (Part 3): You must know that if you continue to grow a single crop, your town will be in great danger if a disease occurs! So, the next task, which is crucial to people's livelihood, is to grow five or more crops and maintain stability.
She had indeed thought about this issue and mentioned it to Mary. One of the main reasons she asked Mary to take good care of and cultivate the next generation of new crop seeds was to be on the safe side.
After all, wheat is high-yielding and fast-growing, but it is not completely pest-proof.
There are few insects in the desert now, but with the emergence of wheat, who knows whether the existence of insects will be extended?
"With your words, sir, I feel relieved." Pangolin smiled.
Lian Yun suddenly stood up and said, "What's the point of just talking? Let me show you our new crops."
The orcs nodded repeatedly.
Lian Yun led a large group of people and passed by more than 30 new recruits who were in training. He nodded gently. The latter looked at them in a daze as they passed by in a harmonious manner, and it took them a long time to recover.
Lian Yun walked to the farmland and nodded with satisfaction when he saw the land being efficiently renovated.
In the field, led by the previous five-man team, they tied the sharks brought by the orcs with ropes, connected them to the soil-turning tools, and then pushed them into the soil.
The next moment, the sharks burrowed into the soil like fish in water. However, since the tillage tools were too large, they could not burrow too deep and could only swim forward.
After a while, he had covered a hundred meters.
Not only the orcs, but also Mary, who had already guessed it, was stunned the moment she saw it for the first time.
"Sir, you are really, really..." Pangolin was suddenly speechless and stammered with his mouth open.
"I've made the best use of it, thanks to your help." Lian Yun said calmly.
She asked Xiaobai to go out just to drive these sharks together.
Everyone was admiring this gift from nature when suddenly, a shark in the distance deviated from its course and rushed to the corner nearby.
Mary suddenly panicked: "Sir! That's the crop I'm growing!"
They seem to know where they shouldn't go and rush there with a vengeance.
It's too late.
They rushed over and found the shark had been controlled.
The man controlling the shark said with a guilty look on his face, "Sorry, my lord, Mary, he got a piece of it after all."
……piece?
Suddenly, the bound shark began to foam at the mouth and struggled desperately, but unlike the posture it had just used to break free from the rope, it was now twisting in an extremely painful posture.
"Poisonous?!" Mary's face turned pale. Fortunately, she didn't give it to the residents in advance.
"How could that be?" Lian Yun frowned slightly. There might indeed be unsafe plants in those seeds, but if they were just seeds, they shouldn't be poisonous...
Meili bent down and dug out a piece from the ground. She presented it to Lianyun and said, "Sir, this is it. I took it out from the treasure chest of the guardian birds."
“…”
Lian Yun looked at the sprouted potato in silence.
Apparently, the poor, weak and helpless shark didn't know that sprouted potatoes are poisonous.
