Mu Youran returned to the cave and sat quietly in a chair, sighing deeply and listlessly.
Huang Yu was a little puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"You Ran, look what I caught!"
Suddenly, Wen'e came in from outside carrying a large earthenware basin and jumped in, placing it in front of You Ran as if presenting a treasure.
Mu Youran lowered her eyes subconsciously, and with just one glance, she jumped high and backed away in fright.
"ah!"
"What is this thing? It's disgusting! Take it away!"
Huang Yu glanced at it and immediately frowned: "Take it away quickly, You Ran is most afraid of this kind of thing."
Seeing their expressions, Wen'e felt a little disappointed, as he had spent the whole morning getting this.
She wanted to explain further: "You Ran, this is a really good thing. I just picked it up from the sea. Eating it will not only beautify your skin, but it's also good for the baby."
Mu Youran was initially quite disgusted, but upon hearing about so many benefits, she forced herself to suppress her fear and approach to look inside.
Inside, a large, black, spiky worm, about the size of a palm, was wriggling slightly.
"It's a sea cucumber!" she exclaimed in surprise.
"We call this a sea worm."
Wen E was surprised to find that she actually knew her, even though she had mispronounced her name.
He asked happily, "Then tonight I'll make you grilled sea worms, or would you like them raw?"
Mu Youran shook her head repeatedly: "No!"
Although she eats seafood, she found it difficult to eat this thing that looked like a worm.
"You guys eat, I don't want any!"
Wen'e pursed his lips. He had thought You Ran would like it, but all his efforts were in vain.
Seeing how scared You Ran was, she took the basin and went outside.
After Wen'e stirred things up, Mu Youran felt much less upset.
She decided to go and discuss it with Ying Yao first.
"Huang Yu, let's go find Ying Yao."
Huang Yu knew she must have something on her mind, so she agreed.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
At this time of day, Ying Yao was busy with the wild animals in captivity.
When You Ran, Huang Yu, and Wen E arrived, they saw him intently watching a rabbit give birth, so absorbed that he didn't even notice anyone approaching.
Mu Youran felt much better watching the circle of gray rabbits hopping around.
"Yingyao, are you busy?"
Suddenly hearing You Ran's voice, Ying Yao turned around and saw the three of them, looking very curious.
"Why are you here?"
Mu Youran: "I need to talk to you about something."
Seeing that You Ran said that, Ying Yao knew that something must have really happened, so he went over and asked, "What is it?"
"I want to know how many supplies we have here right now."
Ying Yao was very puzzled when he heard this.
Since arriving here, he and Luo Bai have been in charge of all the affairs of the Sirius Tribe, big and small, while You Ran has not interfered.
Why are you suddenly asking about this now?
But I still told them what happened.
Mu Youran felt that she hadn't been involved at all from beginning to end, and there were many things she didn't understand, so she simply asked questions directly.
"Can't we wait until you increase the meat consumption of all the current orcs by three pounds every day?"
Upon hearing this question, Ying Yao realized that she wanted to give the people of the Tianlang tribe an extra bite of meat.
He actually had this idea too, but the tribe's current capabilities were limited, and everyone was content to just get by and not starve.
Moreover, it is summer now, and the amount of meat distributed each day is determined by how much is hunted each day.
Besides, they also wanted to eat their fill, but there were only so many prey around.
Fortunately, their captive breeding of wild animals is now taking shape, and once this momentum continues, they will have food for the winter.
All the frugality we're practicing now is so that we can get through this winter safely.
"What about our animal hides? Do we have any left over?"
Ying Yao: "Yes, but judging from the current situation of the Tianlang tribe, the amount of animal hides consumed this winter will probably be very large."
Mu Youran's mind instantly turned heavy. To be honest, she didn't really want to use the income from other tribes to subsidize the Tianlang tribe.
After all, a tribe must have the ability to survive if it wants to survive.
Even if she can bring some supplies from other tribes now, it can only help temporarily, not permanently.
But what Bado said bothered her.
Apart from a few of them, all the other orcs in the tribe were starving. However, before today, she had been eating meat and fish every day without any guilt.
This made her feel very bad.
Even if you make up an excuse that you are pregnant, you can't get rid of the guilt.
Suddenly, she thought of something and slammed her fist on her head!
He said happily, "Look at me, we have something that can be turned into money!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Yao and Huang Yu were a little puzzled. What else could it be?
Besides wild animal meat, bamboo weaving, and animal hides, what else can the Sirius tribe turn into money?
Not to mention wild animal meat and hides, there's not even enough for ourselves.
As for bamboo weaving, it has only been around for a short time, and those items are currently scarce and don't fetch much money.
Mu Youran said with a smile, "Have you forgotten about all the kudzu root powder we dried before?"
"My memory is bad because I'm pregnant. Have you all forgotten things because of me?"
Suddenly teased by her, everyone smiled. It wasn't that they had forgotten, but rather that they simply didn't think that thing could be sold for money.
Because when it was first posted online, You Ran had already made it for them to eat.
It's sticky and tasteless; eating a bowl of that is less satisfying than drinking a coconut.
This stuff is mediocre in color and taste, has no aroma, and can't even fill you up. No wonder it's hard to sell.
Seeing their smiles, Mu Youran knew what they were thinking, and she looked up, pouted, and snorted coldly.
"I know what you're thinking, that you think they won't sell!"
"Hmph, just you wait and see!"
Wen'er immediately said, "No, no, no, You Ran, I think you can definitely do it."
"What is kudzu root powder? I want to try it!"
Neither Huang Yu nor Ying Yao believed she could sell it, but Wen E did.
Mu Youran gave the two of them a haughty snort, then turned to Wen E and said, "Come on, I'll make it for you. Don't give any to these two."
"Okay, okay, it'll just be the two of us!"
Wen'e was overjoyed; this was a sign of special favor shown to him. He immediately took You Ran's arm and left.
When You Ran left, her determined look made Huang Yu and Ying Yao laugh.
At this moment, they understood a little why You Ran would like a male she had only known for a short time.
Anyone who isn't stupid would like an orc who's willing to play with them.
