Chapter 341 The Three Little Pigs?
Jiang Xi never expected that the tribe would learn from this example and actually make a living like this.
However, worried that she might receive pig milk someday, she still mentioned it.
"Cow's milk and goat's milk are fine, but pig's milk is out of the question."
"Also, tell them that both cow's milk and goat's milk should be boiled before drinking, otherwise there may be... some bacteria that the body cannot digest."
Lu Liufeng looked at the two jars.
"Does the mistress want to drink now? I'll go cook it."
Killian readily agreed, "I'll do it, I'll do it."
Jiang Xi waved her hand.
"Let's eat first, then we'll deal with it."
A breakfast similar to lunch isn't really suitable to be paired with milk.
Speaking of milk, she thought she could draw a picture of tea trees, since the beastmen might have seen them in the mountains.
Logically speaking, there should be tea trees in this world.
With tea, you can make milk tea!
After finishing breakfast, Jiang Xi put the cow's milk and goat's milk into the artificial superpower refrigerator.
She planned to go check on the three little pigs first.
Mu Ling and Huo Lun stayed home to make furniture, while Lu Liufeng went to talk to the leader. Duan Si, Nafier, Nakan, and Yi Yuexi accompanied her to the pig farm.
Of course, there's also Kilian, who doesn't want to go back, and Hysia, who inexplicably finds herself interested.
Along the way, the beastmen greeted him warmly.
"Female!"
"Female!"
They saw Kylian and Hysia and whispered among themselves.
"Isn't that a lion-beastman from the Starsea Plains? They just arrived a couple of days ago!"
"That's right! I even saw those lion-beastmen going to see their leader. The leader was quite welcoming to them. They're all lions, could they be from the same clan?"
"How is that possible! The Six-Winged White Lion is a beast race of the Lion Roar Tribe, how could it possibly be related to the Star Sea Plains?"
"Speaking of which, that must be a prince of the sea tribe. He looks like he's been pampered and used to a life of luxury."
"The Cursed Land is not the royal palace of the sea race. If you can't endure the hardship, you'd better go back to the palace as soon as possible!"
"..."
The beastmen spoke in hushed tones that Jiang Xi couldn't hear, but the beastmen could.
Kylian and Hysia naturally heard it.
Haisia was somewhat displeased to hear their criticism.
But seeing that Kylian seemed not to have heard anything, he suppressed his displeasure.
Never mind, this is the Lion's Roar Tribe, a cursed land, not the East and West Seas.
His status as a prince of the sea tribe did not bring him any preferential treatment.
Throughout the entire Lion Roar tribe, only Jiang Xi was highly respected.
Haisia pretended not to hear and continued walking forward.
The orcs clicked their tongues when they saw the two pretending to be deaf; they thought the two had incredibly thick skin.
Unlike the orcs in the tribe, who would be easily provoked into resolutely raising pigs.
The farm is a bit far from the village; you have to cross a small hill to get there.
Kylian cleverly transformed into his beast form, intending to carry the female envoy over.
But Jiang Xi was no longer the Jiang Xi who knew nothing. She politely declined Kylian's offer and rode on the back of Yi Yuexi's fox.
Her fluffy tail supported her lower back, making her feel as comfortable as if she were sitting in a chair.
Not to mention, the plush texture is the ultimate in plushness, nothing can compare!
With the nine-tailed fox as a means of transportation, they quickly climbed the hillside.
On the other side of the hillside, there were sheds of various sizes, housing pigs, cattle, and sheep.
Many orcs were carrying bananas and some grass out of the nearby woods, facing the morning sun, carrying baskets on their backs or dragging planks.
The beastmen were all somewhat flattered when they saw Jiang Xi.
"Why is the female messenger here?"
Then, one of the orcs suddenly realized what was going on.
"The female envoy must have come to see Yiyi, Er'er, and Diandian."
Jiang Xi casually came up with the name, but now hearing them call it out, she felt inexplicably ashamed.
She nodded and hummed in agreement twice.
But then, the orc turned and shouted into the forest.
"Yiyi! Er'er! Diandian! The female messenger has come to see you!"
Jiang Xi: "..."
She stood there, silent for a long time.
Aren't they raising pigs?
Why does it feel like having a pet and being pampered?
As she remained silent, the woods began to tremble, and faintly, even the ground shook.
Immediately afterwards, three large, fat pigs, as big as oxen, rushed out of the woods, howling loudly.
The two leading pigs had brownish-yellow stripes, while the lagging one had black and white spots—the pigs lived up to their name.
After the three fat pigs rushed out, a boy wearing a straw hat, carrying bananas on his shoulder, also rushed out of the woods shouting.
"Don't run! Don't run away!!"
The boy had wheat-colored skin, round, light yellow cat-like eyes, gray-brown hair braided into a long plait, and his brown clothes were somewhat torn, covered in dew and mud. He was agile and resembled a large cat.
When Jiang Xi saw the boy, he also saw her. His cat-like eyes widened instantly, revealing a look of surprise. He dropped the banana and ran over.
"Female!"
But just as he was about to reach Jiang Xi, he quickly stopped, sniffed his clothes, and looked embarrassed.
"I'm a little dirty."
Jiang Xi looked at him, hesitated for two seconds, and then tentatively spoke.
"Suo?"
The boy's smile was somewhat childish and very cute.
"The female envoy still remembers me~"
Actually, the boy's appearance wasn't exactly cute; in fact, he was rather aloof. However, his round, cat-like eyes were quite adorable, making him easy to approach.
Jiang Xi also laughed.
"You've taken human form too."
So nodded with bright eyes, then asked somewhat cautiously.
"I'll get my wages in a couple of days. May I visit the female envoy then?"
He clutched his clothes and said in a low voice.
"Knowing that the female messenger has returned, I really want to see her, but I haven't been paid yet and can't afford the cloth and fruits from the Giant Tree Forest."
Yi Yuexi cursed inwardly as she loaded the cargo.
He looked at the three large, fat pigs that had also run up to him, being patted on the head and rolled around in the grass by the beastmen.
The three fat pigs looked bewildered in their small eyes, then began to grunt and root around on the ground, even nudging the rope next to them, which forced the conversation to end.
"Oh dear! What's going on!"
The beastmen were worried that the three pigs would provoke the female servant, so they quickly tried to stop them, saying something as they did so.
They're not usually like this!
"They are so well-behaved and obedient, they are smarter than other pigs."
Of course, there was definitely discrimination.
After all, this is a female pig.
Looking at the three large, fat pigs, Jiang Xi couldn't connect them with the three little pigs from before. Seeing the three big fat pigs rooting around everywhere, she became even more worried.
"Watch out, don't get stepped on."
"Pigs are not well-suited for free-range farming; let's raise them in sheds instead."
After she finished speaking, the confusion in the small eyes of the three fat pigs disappeared, and they suddenly widened their eyes. The fat pigs looked at Jiang Xi, then at the powerful beastmen beside her, turned around, and ran into the forest, leaving the three of them with their earth-shaking backs.
Jiang Xi remained silent for two seconds.
"Did they understand?"
The orcs shouted, "Sho! What are you waiting for?! If you lose the three little pigs, you can forget about getting paid!"
