When the sheep-beastmen go out, they all carry baskets on their backs, while the females stay at home tidying up some things. Although the weather is hot now, there are still many things to prepare.
Haitang actually knew what kind of beastmen these sheep were; they were sheep. Haitang told those people that they could use the wool to make yarn and knit sweaters.
The females were all surprised to learn about this. Haitang didn't stand on ceremony and immediately went to find Xiaohe and began teaching the females of the sheep tribe how to knit and make sweaters.
As for where the fur comes from, it comes from the orcs, of course. Orcs start shedding their fur in the spring, and there's a lot of it. The fur of the sheep-orcs is very soft, and the wool quilts that Haitang used to wear were made from the orcs.
However, these people in front of us obviously wouldn't, because... although they are all sheep, the problem is that there are many sheep-beastmen on this land. Any extra beastmen would be driven out, because the resources in one place are insufficient, so they can only drive people away.
While Xiaohe was sitting, Huayue and the other females were learning from her. "So amazing! In the past, we would take the fur and throw it away." Although sometimes they would put it in a cloth, it wasn't very useful.
Xiaohe smiled and said, "These furs are very soft. They can be used not only to make sweaters, but also to make quilts." As she spoke, she picked up a sweater from her basket and said, "Look... I made it with rabbit fur. Isn't it beautiful?"
"Hmm, it looks good... and it's warm too." If the females had been wearing this last winter, so many people wouldn't have frozen to death.
Upon hearing this, Xiaohe smiled and said, "No rush. Let's finish making the yarn now, and then we can knit sweaters. If you don't use them all, you can sell them." This is because the orcs of the Sheep Tribe sell cotton quilts.
Upon hearing this, the females all nodded and began to learn from Xiaohe. They were all very diligent in learning from Xiaohe, afraid of falling behind, but there was only one knitting machine.
Under such circumstances, Xiaohe could only leave it for them to use. Although the people of the sheep tribe felt a little embarrassed, they accepted the kindness and planned to exchange it for another one in a few days.
When Haitang and the others returned, Xiaohe also went straight home. The sheep-beastman looked at what the females and the others had made and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
“Collect your fur; we can use it to knit sweaters later. It’s very useful and warm,” one of the females said, looking at her men.
Upon hearing this, the sheep-beastman paused for a moment but then nodded, letting the females do as they pleased. They had brought back a lot of wheat today and started drying it.
When they go out tomorrow, only members of their own tribe can go out, because it's impossible for Haitang to follow them all the time. When Haitang went to gather, she also brought back a lot of wheat.
Of course, the planting at home couldn't be neglected. With Xiao Xiang, a capable worker, and Xiao Ping'an helping out, they quickly finished the planting on several acres of land.
So, under these circumstances, after the wheat harvest was complete, Haitang went to fetch some sugarcane. After the sugarcane was brought back, Haitang boiled it into sugar, and not only that, she also used the dried corn to make popcorn.
Haitang tried it for the first time and it tasted pretty good, sweet and even better with honey. She immediately took a big pot to Shihu. Shihu doesn't really like sweet things, but Xingxing and Yueyue do.
While the children are eating, they will take some to their friends. The friends learned a lot of characters last year, and many of them can now write their own names.
Under these circumstances, Xingxingyueyue became popular among many of the little orcs and directly became the little leader in the hearts of the tribe's little orcs.
Spring has arrived. Although every little beastman needs to work, they also have time to play. Because every household has enough food, they don't have to work every minute.
In this situation, if you dare to play, then play. Popcorn is exactly what the children want. While eating it, their eyes light up and they plan to go back and ask their mothers to make it.
Unfortunately, they were all disappointed. Not everyone can be as skilled as Haitang, constantly coming up with new ideas.
Dongfang Long loves the popcorn from Haitang's house the most. It's sweet and fragrant. Dongfang Long really likes sweet things. In Haitang's words, he's a little dragon cub with a sweet tooth.
"It's delicious. Tangtang, next time you make it, you can make it a little sweeter," Dongfang Long said while eating. He also gave some to Xiao Ping'an, who was sitting down, and Xiao Ping'an picked up the popcorn and started eating.
Xiao Xiang also thought it tasted good, fragrant and delicious. Upon hearing this, Haitang said while eating, "Okay, I made a mistake the first time, but I'll do better next time."
Haitang was quite accommodating to such a small request. What should she say? Of course, food should be enjoyed by those who appreciate it, so she'll cook even better for them.
The popcorn was returned to Xiuxiu's family. Xiuxiu thought it was good while eating it, so she went to open some sugarcane and took it home to make popcorn with corn. The corn seeds were from Haitang's family, and she still had some in her own warehouse.
After the popcorn was ready, Changning was asked to take it to Guyue. Guyue had grown much taller this year and looked healthier. Since her brothers were going out to mine, Guyue was doing all the farm work at home.
Last year's harvest was alright. Under such circumstances, we went to harvest wheat before spring and then planted crops. Now we are at home taking care of the land. When we saw Changning arrive, we immediately got up.
"Why are you here?" Gu Yue looked at Chang Ning and understood immediately. Chang Ning gave Gu Yue some popcorn, and Gu Yue stared blankly at it.
