Chapter 58: The Salt Shortage Dilemma

After buying for a day, I felt a little numb even for a month later.

I don't feel like I have too much desire to see anything, hey, it seems that the happiness of rich people is not so easy to understand.

It wasn't until she entered the orc plane that Lian Yue didn't come back to her senses a little, so much so that Mei Mei got up and packed up and was ready to go out, and Lian Yue didn't notice it.

Hurriedly followed Meimi to get up, and started another day of herb picking, just like that, Lianyue followed to collect all the existing herbs and fruits of the Romir tribe.

Squatting on the stone next to the square to rest, Lian Yue gently fanned the wind with his hands, the day gradually began to heat up, and the clothes on his body, I am afraid that he will not be able to wear it for long.

"Meow hmm" King Meow held a small piece of beef jerky in his mouth, and rushed to Lian Yue's front with vigorous steps.

"Hey!" Lian Yue dragged it over, put it in his arms, and stroked it with pleasure, and it also climbed down with a look of enjoyment.

"Little one, where did you steal the beef jerky!"

Lian Yue saw the beef jerky in its mouth, and saw that it was enjoying Lian Yue's touch, while biting the jerky in its mouth, that kind of energy, it was simply very enjoyable.

"Meow meow!" As soon as he heard Lian Yue say this, King Meow was not happy, his little hands dragged the jerky, and his mouth began to meow.

"Yes!" As soon as he heard this incomprehensible cat language, Lian Yue only lowered his head and stopped talking, and continued to smooth it up.

"Meow meow! Meow meow meow! ”

"King Meow came to you again?"

Coincidentally, Nana was carrying a small bamboo basket through the square, and when she saw this, she asked in a distant voice.

"Hmmm! I just don't know where to get a piece of jerky again, come and show it to me, hahaha..."

Everyone in the tribe knows that the little guy King Meow likes to go to Lianyue, and Lianyue didn't deny it, only talking about the guesses in his heart.

"I said, I just got it from where Eminem (mother) was entangled for a long time, and finally got a piece of jerky, and the smoke disappeared, it turned out to be on your show."

Hearing this, Nana chuckled and walked slowly over with the basket.

"Meow meow meow~" King Meow looked at Nana, and then looked up at Lian Yue, which seemed to mean, look, I said that I didn't steal it!

Seeing this, Lian Yue raised her hand and pressed its little head again, rubbed it lightly twice, and motioned for it to continue eating jerky.

When Nana walked in, Lian Yue glanced sideways and caught a glimpse of her basket full of local jerky, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, and asked, "Have you done so much?" ”

"That's right, it's all up to Ah Yue, since the last time I hunted the silverhorn deer herd, the tribe can store more food, and it can only be dried and stored before, which is far less delicious than your practice, and it can be stored for a long time, so naturally I have to do all this."

Lian Yue nodded, expressing her agreement, this jerky she made is indeed far better than Romir's previous preservation method in terms of appearance and taste, since the day before yesterday she made some jerky and gave it to the tribe to taste, everyone was full of praise that this was the best jerky they had ever tasted.

Naturally, in the past two days, Nana led the female orcs of the tribe to start making charcoal-grilled jerky in full swing.

Of course, depending on the type of meat used, the taste will naturally vary.

The taste of the Mengbeast meat selected in the month of stumbling is closest to beef, and the taste is better, followed by black pork meat, which tastes like pork, and it has a unique flavor when made. The other meats, due to the different meat quality and taste, the final taste also has its own merits, plus the seasoning of the month, although the taste is not as good as the Mongolian beast meat and black pork meat, it is not too bad.

However, these various kinds of jerky, for the people of the Romil tribe, each is a new experience, taste the mouth, the mouth is full of only "delicious and delicious", then there is still the energy to distinguish, which of these jerky is the most delicious, which is generally delicious.

"You can finish it all today, right?" Thinking of this, Lian Yue asked.

"It's almost, when this batch is dried, it's almost there." Nana grinned, baring a mouthful of large white teeth, and laughed happily.

"That's good, little one, you have jerky to eat in the future!"

Lian Yue lowered her head and continued to tease King Meow.

"Hey, I'm afraid I won't be able to do more in the future..."Nana was not as optimistic as her, sighed lightly, and her good-looking face wrinkled, which was very inconsistent with her bright face.

"Short? Why? "I couldn't figure it out for months.

"I don't have enough salt, I don't dare to use it anymore, I have to wait until the exchange season to continue to change some of it, if I don't save some, I'm afraid the tribe won't need any salt at all."

Lack of salt? Lian Yue suddenly remembered that Mei Mi had also mentioned before that the current tribe's rock salt would definitely not be enough to make bacon and jerky in large quantities.

Nodding, Lian Yue said that he knew, patted the little head of King Meow, and signaled to Nana that he wanted to find Hilda, the priest.

......

"My child, I already know about it, and Memmy mentioned it to me yesterday."

Hilda sat down with one hand caressing the animal skin dress on her chest, and spread it forward with the other, motioning for Lian Yue to sit down with her.

"It's a pity that my child, although we have the charcoal curing technique you brought, we can't continue to do it." After a moment of silence, Hilda spoke.

"Why?" Lian Yue was puzzled, and asked instead, "Can't you go and change some more?" ”

"My child, know that not all orcs can live in harmony in the Black Forest as they do in Romir."

Hearing Hilda mention this, the moon was suddenly stunned.

As Apu mentioned before, in the Black Forest, Romir is a multi-ethnic tribe formed for special historical reasons, which is an exception. As for other tribes, most of them are inhabited by ethnic groups, and naturally, due to some reasons of race, there is some competition and even hostility by nature.

Naturally, Hilda also illustrates such a fact.

For this reason, it is only natural that the major tribes are also fraught with disputes, plunder, and plunder.

What can decide everything naturally depends on the strength of the tribe, such as the number of clansmen, the strength of the clansmen's combat effectiveness and other factors. The more food reserves, the smaller the burden on the tribe to reproduce, and the more prosperous the tribe will be, thus entering a positive cycle.

The exchange season is the only major trade event among the major tribes that can put aside disputes and barter.

It enables the circulation of advanced production experience from the major tribes, thus contributing to the positive prosperity of the tribes of the Black Forest as a whole.

But except for the annual exchange season, the major tribes are not welcome to visit each other rashly, because this is likely to be wrapped in the malice of some tribes, after all, in the early years, some weak tribes suffered because of this, and almost wiped out the whole tribe.

Over the years, it has become an unwritten agreement in the Black Forest not to interact with each other, except for the exchange season.

At this time, Lian Yue understood why the first Meow King who met her when he first arrived at the orc plane was so fierce, after all, even for Romir, who lives in a multi-racial group, there may be potential dangers for new faces to visit rashly.

Listening to Hilda's soft-voiced narration, Lian Yue felt that the salt shortage dilemma that Romir was about to fall into might be an opportunity for her.

It's time to leave Romill and take the opportunity to see the outside world.

Then, when she comes back, she can find a reasonable explanation for some things that were inconvenient to take out before, such as the white down jacket on her body that can't see her original appearance.

What's more, if she could link to the next plane, she wouldn't have aroused their curiosity because of her sudden disappearance.
