Old Man Chen sighed, "Fifth Brother, my Big Black can eat even more than your Dog's Leftovers. It takes 20 energy points to release its treasure once."
Zhou comforted her, "It's alright, it's alright, as long as we don't spend money."
Chen Kai: "..."
He actually hoped that Big Black Dog would eat silver, since mining wasn't a difficult task.
Daya's silly girl got the fewest energy points, only 100, since the silly girl's way of obtaining energy points is a bit different.
When Da Ya opened the warehouse, she saw a lot of food!
Of all these foods, only grilled fish and mushroom soup are prepared as cooked dishes.
Animals in Mini World can only be roasted. Although roasted meat is delicious, they still prefer to eat boiled meat.
Furthermore, some animal furs are still useful, so they are not processed into cooked food.
She made quite a few other tools, but the most numerous of them were her uncle's cacti.
Her uncle seemed to really like this thorny plant.
After hearing Da Ya's statistics, everyone suddenly felt much richer.
Da Ya suddenly remembered that there were also 15 leather outfit sets and 6 extra leather jackets.
Daya took out the clothes. Old Man Chen distributed 15 leather jackets to the older generation, but it was still not enough. He could only make do with single leather jackets for now. After dividing them up, there was one extra jacket, which he gave to his good son.
Old Man Chen: "Take out 300 stone spears, 40 stone pots, and a sheep, and tell the people in the team to come and collect them. As for the other things, we'll give them some more after the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow."
That's right, they're having another sacrificial ceremony tomorrow.
It's expected to rain on Laba Festival the day after tomorrow, so their main purpose for tomorrow's trip is to find shelter from the rain, hold a sacrificial ceremony, and prepare for the rain on Laba Festival.
To get more water containers, Chen Kai even brought out the feed troughs. Embarrassment wasn't the issue; the main thing was that the feed troughs were great for holding water—they had large openings, like water basins, and could easily hold a lot of water.
Zhou said happily, "Da Ya, take out four of those sleeping bags, take them apart and make cotton-padded clothes. These things will definitely be good."
Fifth son's second wife: "Bring out three more stone pots, it'll be easier to cook things, and also wooden bowls, bring them all out for use."
With so many people, cooking in earthenware pots is really inconvenient. One pot can't hold much, so every time they cook, they have to use several pots and set up several stoves.
As soon as the wooden bowls were brought out, the children scrambled to grab them. They marked the bowls they got, knowing they would be their own special rice bowls from now on.
When the team arrived, they were stunned—so many stone spears! And a whole sheep, even the sheepskin was handed over! Was the Chen family really that generous?
A stone pot is also a good choice; it's convenient for cooking and for collecting water!
Seeing them dawdling, Old Man Chen said impatiently, "Hurry up and move your things! Putting them here is taking up space, and our people need to rest! Anyway, I'm not going to let you eat here, so hurry up!"
A man said apologetically, "Uncle Chen, actually, we wanted to borrow something from your family, a pottery jar or a stone pot, either will do, to collect water on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month."
Old Man Chen: "Stone pots won't do, my family needs them. Earthenware pots will do, I'll lend you two each, remember to return them after Laba Festival."
Everyone gratefully replied, "Okay!"
There were ten people who came to move things, and twenty pottery jars were lent out at once. Old Man Chen didn't mind at all; he picked up a lot of pottery jars.
The mutton was cut up, and Old Man Zhou had someone send a pound to each of the three village chiefs, and invited them over to eat the mutton.
We'll cook and eat all the remaining mutton today!
The children were so excited they were yelling; they could finally have a good meal.
Zhou was in a good mood and brought out three bamboo trays of sugarcane roots for the people who came to do embroidery to eat.
We have now recruited twelve embroidery workers.
One team was responsible for sewing cotton-padded clothes, and the other team was responsible for sewing hand warmer sleeves.
The people who do embroidery are all quite talkative. Now that there's food, no one is polite and they all scramble to eat it.
When the three village chiefs heard that the Chen family was going to slaughter a whole sheep for a meal, they shamelessly brought their families over to eat the meat.
"We're having mutton soup! We're having mutton soup!" Shirakawa shouted excitedly.
There were two stone pots. One pot contained mutton soup, which Old Chen and his friends were eating around. The other pot was used by Zhou Daya, who was serving soup to everyone.
The chicken soup that Zhou had cooked was ready. She ladled out a big bowl for her good son, and the rest was shared among the children.
Chen Kai looked at his large bowl of chicken soup, which was full of meat and had a big chicken leg, and said happily, "Mom, how about we share it half and half? I can't eat that much."
Mrs. Zhou said with a smile, "It's alright, my good son, eat slowly. If you can't finish it, put it in Chen Nong's bun. Take it out and eat it when you're hungry."
Chen Kai pouted and said, "If Mom doesn't eat, then I won't eat either."
Zhou hurriedly said, "Eat, Mother eat, my good son still cares about his mother."
Chen Kai smiled and gave the big chicken leg to Xiao Tian, then took out another bowl, divided it in half, and waited to share the food with his mother.
The next morning, Daya woke up early and checked in first. After receiving the Sunny and Rainy Fireworks, she felt at ease.
It's going to rain tomorrow, so we'll have to rely on this little treasure!
The eldest son's wife came in and called out, "Get up, everyone! Hurry up, we need to get going!"
Daya yawned and asked, "Mother, why are we setting off so early today?"
The eldest daughter-in-law said, "The group needs to find shelter from the rain and also needs to perform a sacrificial ceremony, so we have to set off early."
The second son's wife brought in several carrying baskets and stuffed the quilts into them.
Last night, a lot of blankets were brought out. Each couple received one blanket, and the older children shared one blanket between two people, while the younger children shared one blanket between three people.
With so many warm blankets, everyone slept soundly last night.
Today, the group set off very early, and the children were still sleepy as they followed along, which caused some of them to fall down from time to time.
It was almost noon when the team finally found a place to take shelter from the rain.
There are two caves, one of which is a large cave that can accommodate more than 500 people.
A small cave that can accommodate more than two hundred people.
The two caves are located on two separate mountains, both halfway up the mountainside, but fortunately they are not far apart, just on the next mountain.
The three village chiefs ordered their men to occupy the two caves first, and then discussed how to settle everyone.
After observing the large cave, the three village chiefs had the Chen family bring out two heavenly thunderbolts, which were then released into the cave and blasted open a space large enough to accommodate six hundred people.
They didn't dare to bomb the cave too many times, for fear of collapsing it.
Afterwards, they went to check out the small cave. They didn't dare to blast it because of its rock structure, so they had people dig it in with stone shovels and hoes. They had to be careful when digging so that the cave wouldn't collapse.
All we need to do is dig enough space to accommodate more than two hundred people.
The terrain here is good; after crossing two mountains, there is a large bamboo forest.
