Hu Shen was all too familiar with the conflicts between tribes.
As the largest orc tribe, even if the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain survived this time, these things would eventually come to them.
No tribe didn't want to trample the Beast Mountain under their feet, but they simply didn't have the strength.
He didn't think this was a disaster brought about by Ah Tang.
On the contrary, knowing in advance gives him more time to come up with a solution.
The strong attract covetousness, while the weak simply shift the blame onto others.
"Don't worry, the White Stone reserves in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain are quite large, enough to last at least until next rainy season. During this time, it will be enough to exchange with the sea beastmen in the sea."
Hu Shen closed the door and, without any hesitation, warmed Su Tang's slightly cold little hands against his own body.
He had already turned himself into an automatic hand warmer.
Seeing Hu Shen calmly reassuring her, Su Tang was taken aback.
No, it's his Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain that's in trouble, so why is he the one comforting me?
"Then I'll talk to Mother tomorrow and teach everyone how to make dry rations. If we really need to go for the trade next year, we'll be able to use them." Su Tang still felt a little guilty and wanted to make up for it as much as possible.
"Okay." Hu Shen agreed obediently without making any excuses.
Su Tang felt that simply making dry rations wasn't enough.
In the past, the many orcs of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain would directly mine white stones, but in the future, they would have to exchange them for resources. And on this continent, the most useful resource is food.
Even in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, obtaining a sufficient amount of white stones is not an easy task.
With so many orcs sharing the same forest resources, food sources were already limited.
While Hu Shen was in the kitchen, Su Tang entered the space and, while tidying up the farm and ranch, pondered a development plan suitable for Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.
Aquaculture is feasible at present, but it takes too long and can only be considered a long-term development.
She could also increase the variety of animals she raises. After the snow season, she would go and collect other animals, such as cattle, pigs, donkeys, and horses.
If they can be tamed, they can not only be eaten, but also traded directly at sea. Live prey is much more popular than dead prey.
As for planting...
The terrain of Wanshou Mountain is not suitable for large-scale crop cultivation. Crops that are easy to preserve, such as rice, corn, and sweet potatoes, cannot be grown on Wanshou Mountain.
Vegetables can be grown on a small scale, but they are not very useful to these carnivorous orcs, and they are also inconvenient to store.
But Su Tang always felt it would be a waste not to plant something in this vast Beast Mountain.
After thinking it over, Su Tang decided to find some time to ask her father.
After all, Father is a professional; he must know best what kind of plants are suitable for Wan Shou Shan.
Having made plans, Su Tang felt that the future held great promise and a long road ahead.
If her goal when she first came into this world was to move from poverty to basic needs, then now it's about moving from basic needs to a comfortable life.
After collecting everything from the farm and ranch, Su Tang started spending money.
She hadn't checked her savings account for a while, and she had accumulated a large sum of gold coins.
With a wave of his hand, the black soil was upgraded to the eighth plot, and the ranch shed was opened for the fourth time.
As farms and ranches upgrade, the number of unlocked shelves in the shop also increases significantly, offering a variety of seeds, plant-based medicines, animal vaccines, pharmaceuticals, nutrient solutions, and more.
Su Tang was dazzled; she hadn't expected the store to have so many new items without her noticing.
He glanced at it with his mind and used the remaining change from his savings to buy a few cheap new seeds and plant them.
The farms in the Gray Wolf Tribe previously selected crops that were easy to preserve, had high yields, and short growth cycles. After a year of trials, they can increase the variety of crops next year.
After eating unprocessed food for a year, Su Tang still misses steamed buns, mantou, noodles, rice cakes, and rice noodles such as hot and sour noodles and crossing-the-bridge rice noodles.
The things I used to be able to eat anytime now make my mouth water just thinking about them.
After looking around again, Su Tang actually found calves in the mall. Not only were there yellow cattle and black cattle, but there were also dairy cows.
This is good stuff!
Orcs all like to eat fatty meat, but Su Tang prefers to eat beef, which is chewy and firm.
There are also cows that produce milk. Orcs give birth to many offspring, but less than half of them survive. A large part of the reason is that there is not enough milk, so only the strong offspring can be fed, while the weak offspring starve to death.
Having dairy cows might increase the survival rate of calves.
With this in mind, Su Tang decisively bought the animals and put them in the ranch to raise.
Su Tang didn't leave the space until she had completely emptied the little treasure trove.
It gets dark early during the snowy season; it's only a little past five o'clock now and it's already dark.
The five cubs have all returned and are huddled together in front of the fireplace, drying their wet fur.
At first glance, it looks like several large, fluffy dolls piled up.
Su Tang's gaze softened. Even for the sake of Zai Zai's future, Wan Shou Shan should get better and better, instead of going downhill.
She glanced out the dim window and decided to ask her father about planting again tomorrow. She needed to expand the food sources for Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain before she could feel at ease.
A short while later, Hu Shen brought out a large pot of steaming hot mutton from the kitchen.
During the blizzard, Hu Shen went to Lin Xia's place every day to learn cooking skills, and Su Guodong, who used to be hostile towards him, became much nicer to him.
If he's so dedicated to learning to cook for his daughter, he probably won't treat her badly in the future.
Hu Shen also has some talent; in just half a month, his cooking skills improved dramatically.
We had mutton hot pot for dinner, along with seven roast chickens—one for each of the seven family members.
