Chapter 337 Who exactly fell into the trap?
After washing up, Jiang Xi sat in the kitchen for a while, lost in thought.
At the same time, she also heard the conversation outside.
It turned out to be the beastmen from the tribe. Hearing that she was making furniture from wood and bamboo, they all came to deliver raw materials.
Others came to bring her fresh game, fruits, and animal hides.
Jiang Xi sat for a while, then went outside.
I have to say a few words.
"Cough cough."
She stood by the door and coughed twice.
The beastmen all looked at them. Some were tall and strong, others were slender and tall, some were mature, others were young. They were all different types, with different hair colors, different eye colors, and different races.
Jiang Xi looked around and was so dazzled that she couldn't recognize anyone at all.
The yard was piled with even more timber and animal hides than before.
Under the watchful eyes of a group of piercing beasts, Jiang Xi forced herself to speak.
"that……"
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Yi Yuexi and Huo Lun by the door of the main house, and she spoke up.
"Thank you all for your kindness. Please find Hollen and Yi Yuexi and make a registration record."
Finally, worried that they would drop it off and run away, she explained again.
"If there's any unused portion, it's recorded so it can be easily returned via the original payment method."
Having lived in the Lion Roar tribe for so long, she has developed a deep affection for the tribe.
Her knowledge and healing abilities helped the tribe overcome difficulties last winter, and they are destined to help the tribe reach new heights in the future.
Therefore, she did not directly refuse the raw materials and food that everyone sent out of gratitude.
Acceptance itself is a form of recognition.
However, it certainly can't be like this every day.
Later, you can talk to the chief female and the leader to tone it down and not be so enthusiastic.
Yi Yuexi was just watching the fun when she was suddenly called out, and she was stunned for a moment.
"I?"
Hollen came down and patted him on the shoulder.
"Let's go."
He set up a table in the storage room on the side of the yard and began registering.
The orc world has its own writing system, but it's more like hieroglyphics than a written script. Jiang Xi couldn't understand it, nor did she force herself to learn it.
However... if there's an opportunity, perhaps we could promote simplified Chinese and digital characters.
Knowledge is always beneficial.
The orcs lined up to register, Hollen recorded the information, and Yiyuexi checked the items and reported the numbers.
Mu Ling and Duan Si set up a long outdoor table, like the one in the royal courtyard, on the riverbank in the backyard.
Nafiel and Nakan were making chairs in the front yard.
As they worked, the beastmen who had already registered came over to help and started making chairs.
The end result was that stacks of chairs were set up in the yard, at least dozens of them at first glance.
Jiang Xi stared blankly at the chairs that filled the yard.
Finally, after much persuasion, she managed to get the orcs who had helped to take the chairs back with them, leaving only fifteen.
The beastmen gradually dispersed, and it was time for breakfast and lunch.
Jiang Xi decided to have brunch at the riverside restaurant in the backyard!
At that moment, Malthus, whom we had just met yesterday, suddenly appeared outside the courtyard, with a rope hanging from his shoulder.
He stood outside the fence of the yard, smiling and greeting people.
Good morning, female messenger.
"The records from yesterday weren't complete enough. I'd like to come in and take the measurements again. Is that convenient?"
Jiang Xi naturally agreed.
"Come in."
The gate to the yard was open, and Malthus only went in after receiving permission.
Lu Liufeng and Nakan carried the dishes to the backyard, and Jiang Xi politely asked them a question.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
Malthus paused slightly, a hint of embarrassment on his handsome face.
"I didn't eat."
"Am I disturbing the female's lunch?"
Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment.
She thought he would say that he had already eaten.
But since she said she didn't eat it, Jiang Xi isn't the kind of person who's stingy.
After all, he was the one who oversaw the construction of this house.
"If you don't mind, let's eat together."
So, on the back desk of the dean, there was one more person, following Haizu and Haixia.
Jiang Xi looked at the three of them and thought they seemed quite harmonious.
There's really no difference between having two more or three more.
However, for a moment, the table fell silent as everyone subtly glanced at Malthus.
Finally, it was Hollen who spoke first.
"Malthus, we need to install a double wooden door on the third-floor terrace. I wonder if it's convenient to install it today?"
Actually, any orc could easily do this kind of minor installation.
However, after Hollen returned for some time, he has come to fully understand what aesthetics are.
The Lion Roar tribe orcs installed it themselves, focusing on making sure it works and not caring about whether it matches the overall design.
Some people simply nailed the windows shut because they lacked the skills to install them properly, and then ignored it.
To this end, Hollen also dismantled many incongruous and ugly things that the tribal orcs had enthusiastically helped install.
Malthus paused slightly, "Double doors?"
What kind of double doors?
Jiang Xi gave a brief description.
"No need for complicated styles, simple is fine."
Malthus confirmed a few more details and nodded in agreement.
Hollen's introduction livened up the atmosphere at the dinner table.
Malthus cut the steak into small pieces, ate it elegantly, and praised it.
"I've long heard that the food recipes of the Lion's Roar tribe all originated from the female envoy. Sure enough, the food from the female envoy's house is the best."
No one dislikes hearing praise, Jiang Xi smiled.
“Lu Liufeng made all of these. His cooking skills are much better than mine now.”
After saying that, he seemed to remember something and asked a question.
"How long have you been sent by the royal court? Is there a time limit?"
Actually, what she really wanted to ask was whether the Wang court had sent them any news about evacuation.
After all, she had some unpleasantness with Wang Ting when she left.
Malthus shook his head.
There is no specific time.
Jiang Xi made up her mind and became much warmer towards him.
We must extract as much value from them as possible before the royal court sends a message.
Squeeze every last drop out.
"Lion Roar Tribe, thank you so much! I almost didn't recognize you when I came back this time. Your construction skills are truly amazing! You've given Lion Roar Tribe a completely new look!"
She showered him with praise, making Malthus blush slightly.
This also put the beastmen at the dinner table on high alert.
Cecilia took a bite of beef without expression, then glanced at Malthus, who was blushing, with an expression that suggested he was an idiot.
Oh, this poor, young, inexperienced orc is about to fall into her trap.
In the world of orcs, what female would suddenly possess the passion of a burglar when facing an orc?
But as Cecilia pondered this, she suddenly realized something was amiss.
Um... wait a minute...
Why would he help her intercept the old man from the Holy Deer Clan and help them leave the royal court smoothly?
Why did he stay in the Lion's Roar tribe instead of setting off for the Dark Lake tribe?
Why would he be so kind as to help her beastmen solidify their supernatural abilities and enter the Earth Rank as soon as possible?
