Haitang started packing some things. While packing, she looked at the coal mine not far away, where more and more coal was being piled up. There were enough workers now, but there was still a shortage of transportation.
Air transport is not practical. What should we say? Air transport would be difficult due to the quantity. Even if Haitang asked the Roc clan to transport it by air, it would be very troublesome.
Because coal mining is very heavy, and of course land transportation is similar, both involve encountering frustrating situations. When Haitang looked into the distance, she saw many workers taking a break.
They all had white steamed buns in their hands. The buns were made at the beginning and placed in the well not far away. When they got hungry, they could take them to eat. Orcs get hungry very easily when they are working.
Of course, these white steamed buns are only for eating here and cannot be taken back. When you are tired from working, eating white steamed buns with some side dishes is a very good way to enjoy them.
Although it's not meat, the orcs still like it very much, and it's similar on the human side, where the humans do most of the work.
When they were first sent here, everyone was terrified, but now everyone is much better. What can I say? In the past few months here, the food is better than in the tribe, and no one has bullied us.
Orcs work in their own territory, and humans work in their own territory. They eat almost the same things. It's like paradise. It's one thing to work in other places, but to work without being fed is the most frustrating thing.
Someone walked up to Haitang and looked at her, saying, "Um..." The person seemed a little reserved when looking at Haitang, as the person in front of her appeared to be thirteen years old. "I want to thank you."
"Thank me?" Haitang was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood why the other party was thanking her. "No need, you're all working too. Are you getting used to living here?"
"Yes, I'm used to it. The food, drink, and clothes are all very good." It's better than when I was in the tribe, and even better than when I hadn't transformed into a beastman.
Upon hearing this, Haitang nodded and said, "That's good. I was worried you wouldn't be used to living here, but now that you say you're used to it, I'm glad." Haitang said, looking at the children in front of her.
When Haitang spoke, the other party immediately smiled. When Haitang looked at these children, her gaze was somewhat complicated. Most of the child laborers were children, and the age of the people who came here to work was basically no more than twenty.
Of course, some people in their twenties are tortured to the point of being almost unrecognizable, while others are doing quite well. In fact, under certain circumstances, all people will be brutally abused by others.
In this world, there are no children or non-children. Once you lose the qualification to become a beastman, you can no longer become a beastman. You can only become a slave of the human race and be driven by beastmen.
Although Haitang understands that child labor is inappropriate, she still chooses to accept it, largely because these people could not possibly live a better life elsewhere.
It wouldn't have been appropriate to refuse, so the boy happily went back, ate his steamed buns with meat sauce, and went back to work happily. At night, he had bone broth to drink, as well as roasted meat and vegetables.
On days like these, wild vegetables would be airlifted over every two days. Some of these vegetables were from the Black Bear Tribe. The females of the Black Bear Tribe would collect the wild vegetables and sell them to the coal mines at high prices.
Because of this, the females of the Black Bear tribe are now gathering more and more wild vegetables, which they would like to exchange for goods at the coal mine.
Of course, if there aren't enough wild vegetables at once, you can take a coin, which can be used to make up the difference and then exchange for cloth and other clothes. At first, most people are skeptical and distrustful.
However, after about six months of cooperation, they gradually stopped doubting that currency circulation was also being used in the coal mine.
Haitang has brought the coins to this area. There's a shop not far from the coal mine, which is used for trading. Wild vegetables can be traded here.
The Black Bear clan brought their goods for the transaction. "By the way, the higher-ups have given the order that you can come and ship them tomorrow," the Black Bear clan member said, nodding in response.
"Okay, I'll get ready tomorrow." Hearing this, she immediately nodded, having already decided to go back tomorrow and planned to leave right away.
When the Black Bear clan returned, they immediately went back to gather manpower. The people who went were not very strong; they were only capable of walking.
With the added imposing presence of the lions, leopards, and tigers on the road, serving as a deterrent, the females of the tiger clan were immediately delighted upon seeing the new clothes. "So beautiful! Do they need girls at the coal mine?"
"No, the females from the fox tribe are doing the work over there, so we don't need you." The tiger tribe members were already working, and they didn't want any extra people. When the female heard this, she frowned but didn't say anything more.
The goods were shipped out the next day. After shipping, Haitang tied everything up and had it delivered directly to the Black Bear Clan for transport back.
In this situation, the tribes surrounding the Tiger tribe began to use coal mines, which were a very good trade and many people liked to use them.
Many people in the Tiger Tribe have ordered coal mines, but these mines are only used by wealthy families and are not available to other orcs.
When Haitang learned that the tribe had gained several more people, she immediately nodded and said, "That's good."
