We picked a lot of lychees and crabapples from the crabapple tree and Xiuxiu's family. We took them home to dry, and some of them were brought over to eat. They tasted really good.
After drying the lychees, Haitang started looking for other food. To be honest, it didn't rain at all this time.
Spring has arrived, and although it's not a rainy season, it still rains every now and then. But there's no problem right now, which makes Haitang feel a bit strange.
Haitang looked at the sky and saw that the river water by the stream had dropped a lot. She was a little worried that the drought might have really reached this place.
When Haitang returned, she sat in the car, filled with worry. What would happen if there really was a drought? Water is often a scarce resource.
Without water, one would become dehydrated from eating or drinking, and everyone would be dehydrated, leading to death from thirst.
However, although Haitang was worried, she could only think of a way. Drilling a well was a must, but the question was where to drill it.
After the well was dug, Haitang was worried that it might collapse, but then she remembered that people in ancient times dug wells in the same way, and that made sense.
Haitang plans to dig a well in her house and surround it with various items. She's actually thinking that if she could use stones to create a circle and then place them layer by layer, the chance of a landslide would be greatly reduced.
Having made up her mind, Haitang went back and said, "Xiaohe, make something to eat today. I'm going to find someone." Haitang planned to go find Shiming.
Shi Ming hasn't gone out these days. He has porcelain at home that he can exchange for supplies, and with his wife about to give birth, he can only stay at home.
"Third Uncle... I have something to discuss with you." Haitang said to Shi Ming, and Shi Ming looked at Haitang upon hearing this.
"What's the matter?" Shi Ming was irrigating the land not far away. He had also cultivated land at home and started farming himself.
Hearing this, Haitang immediately explained the purpose of her visit, saying that she could still earn an income by farming without having to go out.
"You said you want a stone ring, but it might be a bit difficult to find the right things." Upon hearing this, Shi Ming spoke up, and Haitang nodded, acknowledging the difficulty.
“I know, but if you help me, I’ll give you something good. Look… the wine at home, that’s the one I ordered for my third aunt, right? You used it to trade for a lot of meat with other beastmen and got a lot of benefits, so shouldn’t you help me too?” Haitang said with a smile.
"You're all set," Shi Ming said, looking at Haitang. "Okay, I'll find someone for you. Just tell me how wide you need it." Hearing this, Haitang nodded and immediately planned it out for Shi Ming.
Since we can't use the water, let's use these stones to build stone rings, and place them one ring after another into the well. That way, the surrounding area will be less likely to collapse.
As Shi Ming looked at the lychees that Haitang had given him and started eating them, he said, "Your third aunt really likes food, but you said she shouldn't eat too many. She's thinking of waiting until she has her own child before she goes to pick any more."
"Oh, then you can. The tree will bear fruit again next year anyway. But Uncle San's place is a bit far. Be careful when you go alone." Upon hearing this, Shi Ming nodded.
"By the way, girl, when is your mother wolf going to breed? Go and breed with other wolves in the tribe. When you have wolf cubs, give me one. You know I can't become a beastman yet, and your third aunt is all alone. I'm worried about her. At most, I'll cover all the stone rings for you this time." Shi Ming said, looking at Haitang.
"Alright, I'll give you two after the wolf cubs are born, but the tribe already reserved the cubs from the start." The tribe currently has four wolf cubs.
The last time Shi Hu brought back wolf cubs, he gave them to the tribe, and the tribe compensated Shi Hu. Even so, the tribe still wanted to raise a few more. You see, once the wolf cubs are released at the city gate, any strange occurrences around them will immediately put the other side on alert.
Having a pack of a dozen or so wolf cubs would be even more effective in protecting the tribe, and the wolf cubs could also patrol in circles. This was all Huo Qiu had planned from the beginning.
There are female wolves in Huoqiu, but Shi Hu is protecting one to take. The others are all male wolves. After all, many people keep female wolves for breeding, so they are extremely hard to find.
Upon hearing this, Shi Ming nodded and put down what he was doing. Xiao Cao, who was not far away, came out clutching her stomach. "Haitang, won't you sit down for a bit?"
"No, I have things to do back home. Auntie, you should be giving birth in a couple of days. I won't go out to collect anything these next few days, so I don't miss out on what to do later," Haitang said, glancing at the little grass's belly.
Xiao Cao nodded immediately. Hai Tang was not only concerned about Xiao Cao, but also about Xiu Xiu, who was about to give birth. That's why she planned to stay at home, even though it seemed impossible to collect anything from home right now.
However, Begonia can also be exchanged for many good things. Yarn is still being bought, and there are also looms. Begonia also needs to go to Qiao Yu to learn more, as there really aren't many opportunities to collect it.
Upon hearing this, Xiaocao immediately nodded. Shiming went to find someone to make a stone circle for Haitang. Under such circumstances, they used wine as a lure, and everyone liked it very much.
They quickly crafted it for Shi Ming, and it would be ready in less than three days. Actually... to be honest, the human race is very strong, which makes everything they do much easier.
The next day, Haitang went to find Qiaoyu. Qiaoyu was still using a stone knife to grind the wood, polishing, assembling, and testing it, doing it again and again.
Looking at Haitang, he said, "This thing you made this time is really troublesome, so delicate it's giving me a headache. Once it's finished, you have to tell me what it is and show me the effect."
