Chapter 432
The bumper harvest in the fields these days has made every member of the tribe happy and rosy-cheeked. They are so excited that they can't sleep at night and insist on working in the fields in the dark.
Yu Sui was a little worried that his tribesmen would harm their health, but seeing how excited they were, he couldn't bear to stop them. He thought that it was no big deal for the orcs to go without sleep for a few days, so he gave up trying to persuade them.
However, the cubs were in the growing stage, so Yu Sui would call them back every night and release them in the morning.
The weather was hot and the cubs were unwilling to sleep indoors. The big kang they used to like had lost its appeal. Every night they huddled together and slept in Yu Sui's yard.
Yu Sui could turn ice cubes into ice to cool down. Seeing that the cubs liked to sleep in the yard, he couldn't help but think of his childhood. In the hot summer, he and his grandparents had no electric fans or air conditioners, so they would sleep on the roof, and there would be many mosquito bites every night.
But that kind of happiness could never be found again, so he acquiesced to the cubs' behavior. After all, the little orcs had thick skin and flesh, and the dwarf children were stronger than humans.
On summer nights, you can see the twinkling stars in the yard, and there is a gentle breeze and the temperature is just comfortable.
The adults worked day and night to harvest alfalfa, cabbage, and radishes, and transported them back to the tribe in truckloads. The cellar under the canteen, which had been expanded several times, was half full.
I never expected the harvest to be so big. Even though I started by estimating the yield based on the minimum yield per mu, the result was much better than expected.
Behind the joy, Barlow had to lead the engineering team to work overtime again. Grain stored in the cellar was prone to moisture, so Yu Sui asked them to build a granary near the cave where the Heitu tribe stored meat in winter. Otherwise, in a month or two, other grains would gradually mature, and they couldn't have grain but no place to store it.
Before the harvest, Barlow, with his growing engineering team, had already built a slaughterhouse and a food factory. After all, these "factories" were names given by Yu Sui for the convenience of distinction. In fact, with their conditions, there were only a few large warehouses and the indispensable cellar. Apart from that, there was not even a yard. It was very casual and easy to build.
When the scale grows, like a dairy factory, there are only a few pots at the beginning, the factory building is also built slowly later, and the cellar for storing dairy products is also dug later.
Now that the grain harvest is about to come, it is better to prepare the granary early. Although this place is not as close as the cafeteria's cellar, it also belongs to the territory of the Black Map Tribe. The caves next to it are full of furs of various monsters. In the eyes of other monsters, it is no less than a mass grave of humans and is very safe.
Whether they were human slaves working in the dairy or growing cotton, they were all delighted. Every day they were amazed to see vegetables and beans beyond their imagination being delivered back to the tribe.
Even though the people who grew cotton worked in the fields every day, they knew they would harvest a lot of food. In their country, they had never seen fields with such a large yield.
But when I saw the vegetables and beans piled up like mountains with my own eyes, I couldn't help but be shocked. Such an yield per mu is simply an astronomical figure in human countries.
The peppers are picked in batches, and the food called beans also grows long. After picking one batch, new ones will grow again. They taste delicious. Whether eaten fresh, made into various chili sauces, or sour beans, they are all delicious.
The humans had originally heard Yu Sui say that their slave status would be abolished in two years, and they had planned to return to the human continent and live a good life once they were liberated, away from these terrifying orcs.
But for such a long time, the orcs' attitude towards them has been unexpectedly peaceful, and life here is not as terrible as they imagined. The orcs' lifestyle is completely different from the barbaric and backward rumors. Although the tents they live in are backward, new houses are under construction and look much more beautiful and comfortable than human houses.
Food was also what attracted them the most. In the past, slaves were not qualified to have a full meal. They were so hungry that they gnawed on grass and leaves. If they had a meal of bean rice that could fill them up, even if it was mixed with sand and stones, they would swallow it without hesitation.
They lived this kind of life among their compatriots, but when they came to the orc tribe, they discovered delicious and filling food. The orcs even despised them for not eating enough...
After living like this for too long, these human slaves naturally no longer thought about returning to the human world. Life there was too cruel. Ordinary people like them, even if they were no longer slaves, had no rights at all and were just there to be bullied.
In the past, humans felt fear and terror towards orcs, but now their attitude towards them has greatly changed. Especially after seeing the preferential treatment given to pregnant women, they don't want to leave even more.
Even if I have to be busy here for my whole life, it is better than being bullied by the nobles at every turn.
Of course, Hawke's guards were an exception. Their identities were exposed on the day Lanlos attacked the tribe, but after that Hawke did not let them stay by his side to protect his safety. Instead, he let them continue working like everyone else. No one knew what he was thinking.
What Yu Sui wants is for humans to stay here voluntarily. His people are not restricted to orcs or dwarves, and the same applies to humans. He was a human in his previous life, so his soul is inevitably close to humans. There were fifty-six ethnic groups in his country in his previous life, but there are only a few here at most, so it is not difficult to integrate them.
So far, the dwarves who came first, the argali who gradually joined later, the small orcs, the snow wolves from the Kun and Qiong tribes, and now the humans, have all gradually gotten along harmoniously.
In the beginning, Sen and other warriors were obviously dissatisfied, but after the great battle of Lanlos, the warriors eliminated the barriers between each other, especially the big thorn Sen, who now trains diligently every day, trying to condense the magic core like Qi.
Whether he wants to compete with Qi or wants to be the tribe's number one warrior, he will eventually add a powerful warrior to the tribe. Yu Sui Le is happy to see him work hard instead of trying to compete every day.
Work has been busy over the past two days. The number of people for hunting and patrolling has been greatly reduced, training has been temporarily suspended, and various factories have given priority to harvesting vegetables and beans.
Without the convenient farm tools of the previous life, the speed would be slower if relying on manpower, but the orcs worked efficiently and worked day and night. First, the mung beans and red beans were harvested, and then the radishes planted by the rabbit tribe, as well as cabbage, alfalfa, pumpkin, peppers and beans were all harvested.
Qi is now very powerful. Every day, no matter whether he finishes hunting or patrolling, he will harvest food with other tribesmen without stopping for a moment, but he looks more energetic than other tribesmen.
