Song Mu rested at home for a night, and the next day he took three tiger orcs and ten tiger orcs to the north to carry back corn, and also brought back ten bighorn sheep.
Under the eager gaze of the fox tribe, they left one bighorn sheep for the males of the fox tribe, and provided three of the remaining nine sheep to the females in the dormitory, and the rest were divided equally among other families with females in the tribe.
Each female only got a handful of corn, which she powdered and made into steamed buns. Each person could have four or five of them, just to satisfy their cravings.
After everyone finished eating, they couldn't eat more. Several males were urged by their females to come to Ling Yun's door to beg him: "Didn't you bring back a lot? Can't you give us some? It's not for us to eat, but for the females. There's not much food in this cold season."
Tan Yuan was also urged by Dongxue to come over and ask, and said to Ling Yun: "Dongxue said it tasted very delicious. She gave me a bite. It was really good. Dongxue also said that it was very filling. Such good food, clan leader, you should give it to us as soon as possible."
Ling Yun said, "It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but we only have a handful of corn. We only eat the corn seeds. In order to have more corn than we can eat in the future, we should save these and plant them when the weather warms up."
After Ling Yun said this, everyone looked at each other but had no choice but to give up.
"The remaining corn has been left with Pu Su. I don't have any left here. Please stop making trouble at our door. Lin Qiu is pregnant again and needs to rest well."
Tan Yuan was stunned when he heard this: "Lin Qiu is pregnant again?"
Ling Yun looked at Tan Yuan's envious expression, and nodded with a worried look on his face.
Having a litter of cubs a year would make any family extremely happy.
Tan Yuan went back and told Dongxue the news. Dongxue was also surprised and thought that the rabbit tribe was indeed very prolific in reproduction.
In order to help Lin Qiu take care of her pregnancy, Ling Yun rarely went to the place where gunpowder was made, but only went there from time to time to ask about the progress.
After the coldest days of the winter season, the temperature gradually warms up.
There have been constant sounds of explosions in the past few days, and everyone feels worried every time one is heard, but nothing has happened so far.
"Chief, we can now safely ignite it, but the purity is still insufficient, so it's prone to misfires. We can only estimate the explosion range using the safest range, which is not accurate enough."
"Having a little bit of safety assurance is a huge step forward. Take a couple of days off before continuing. As I said before, safety is paramount. If anything happens, don't worry about anything else. Safety is the priority."
Ling Yun gave a few instructions and went back to talk to Lin Qiu about the explosives.
"If it's about time, we can invite other tribes over once the weather warms up. But before that, we need to make some other preparations. The fox orcs are here, so we have the manpower. You can lead your men to clear out a piece of land and build a few houses there. Didn't you say before that the old trading center was prone to theft and robbery? I'm thinking of giving each tribe a small house to store and sell goods. That way, they can have more people to look after the goods. Having one house will reduce the chances of theft and robbery, and it will also be easier to clean up."
Ling Yun said: "That's no problem. It would be best if we could use those fox orcs to help us."
"Also, you might need to set up a new rotation for the tribe and hire a few more people to watch over it. You also need to prepare for the silk matter."
