Chapter 136 Bai Bai's "Love of the New and Dislike of the Old"
Seeing Lin Baiyan's somewhat bewildered expression, Lang Cang added, "But I said I could only sell them three pottery pieces."
"Our tribe isn't very strong right now. If we suddenly bring out so much pottery, it could be dangerous if someone discovers it," Lang Cang explained.
Lin Baiyan nodded seriously.
Lin Baiyan naturally understood the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."
“I would rather they trade food for animal hides.”
The tribe's food reserves have never been very high, and they are consumed every day.
Lang Cang sat up straight and said seriously, "Don't worry about the food. The food we brought back this time is enough for the tribe to eat for a while."
Lin Baiyan nodded. "I call this taking precautions."
Lang Cang was somewhat confused; Bai Yan was saying strange things again.
This was the first time Lin Baiyan had encountered beastmen from other tribes since arriving on this continent. He was somewhat curious, "Are all the Silver Tiger tribe members big tigers?"
Wolf Cang responded, "Yes, their fur is white with a silver sheen."
Hearing Lang Cang's description, Lin Baiyan felt a little itchy in his palms. He had never petted a silver tiger before...
I don't know if it feels good to hold.
Seeing Lin Baiyan's expression, Lang Cang immediately became wary. "Do you want to pet the tiger?"
Lin Baiyan's thoughts were exposed. He coughed lightly, blinked, and deliberately said, "Yes, I want to pet a tiger."
Lang Cang's face darkened instantly. "No."
Lin Baiyan ignored him, saying, "Who are you to me? Why are you telling me what to do?"
"I just want to pet a tiger!"
"There are so many little cubs in the tribe, not enough for you to pet." Lang Cang had long seen through it. Lin Baiyan liked furry orcs, and he had petted every single one of the furry little cubs in the tribe.
Lin Baiyan's eyes darted around, and his words had a distinctly scumbag vibe: "Those are all worn out, I want new ones!"
Wolf Cang was even angrier by his words, "Can't you just masturbate me?"
"I don't want you, you're already old!"
"Anyway, you're not allowed to pet those big tigers!" Lang Cang said irritably.
"Hehe~"
……
The crystal-clear dew dripped slowly from the leaves, forming a beautiful arc.
The cheerful chirping of birds echoed through the forest, waking the sleeping beastmen.
Lin Baiyan poked his head out of his small bamboo bed and shook it, feeling a bit more awake. He then took out his animal skin coat from the side and put it on.
Upon exiting the room, they saw that Lang Cang's door was open, and the room was empty; he must have gone out on patrol with the male beastmen.
He had just returned, so naturally he needed to re-inspect the territory around the tribe. Moreover, since they had encountered the Silver Tiger Clan orcs, they needed to carefully check if any tribes had migrated back to the area.
Patrols don't require that many orcs. Apart from the male orcs that were chosen by Wolf Cang, the other orcs haven't been assigned any work yet and are helping out whenever they can.
They have no concept of needing to rest when traveling far from home. There are many things to do in the tribe right now, so they can't just sit and watch the other tribesmen work.
Lin Baiyan first gathered some fresh grass to feed the long-necked beasts. These long-necked beasts, which he had tied up, were extremely powerful in combat. When they first arrived at the tribe, they would bite almost anyone they saw.
He's recovered a bit after a few days and at least he's stopped biting the tribespeople. However, he's still not friendly with the orcs, and only Lin Baiyan can get close to them.
Lin Baiyan watched as a group of long-necked beasts approached to graze on the grass, and took the opportunity to stroke their feathers.
After the long-necked beast had eaten and drunk its fill, Lin Baiyan clapped his hands and stood up, only to run into Lu Xiao.
Then I was conscripted and dragged to the residential area to work alongside them.
There are already eighteen houses in the tribe, and Lin Baiyan's plan is to build forty more.
Lin Baiyan estimated that they would be able to finish building all the houses before summer.
Living in a cave is too damp, which is not suitable for winter. That's why Lin Baiyan is keeping an eye on building houses in the tribe. In summer, people can live in caves, and in winter, they can live in houses with heated brick beds, which will definitely be warmer.
"I told you to fire some large bricks, how many have you made now?"
Lu Xiao made a rough estimate, "It's about 50,000 yuan."
As the leader of the construction team, Lu Xiao is one of the few orcs in the tribe who can calculate numbers.
There are now five brick kilns in the tribe, which are working almost day and night. Each kiln can fire about two thousand of these large bricks, and they have already fired five kilns.
Lin Baiyan had seen the large bricks they had fired; they were thirty centimeters long and forty centimeters wide. With fifty thousand bricks, they should be able to start building the wall.
If it's not enough, we can just keep burning more.
Yes, Lin Baiyan wanted to build a wall around the tribe. In fact, he had this idea a long time ago, but the tribe was always busy with survival, and he didn't want to take up too much of the beastmen's time.
Now that the tribe has received so many supplies, they no longer need to worry about survival, so the issue of the tribe's security needs to be put on the agenda.
After Lang Cang returned from his hunting trip, Lin Baiyan became even more determined to build a wall.
After the disaster, the tribes that originally lived in the north will gradually migrate back. For the safety of the tribes, it is necessary to build a wall.
They have only encountered one Silver Tiger tribe so far, but there may be more tribes in the future. A strong and sturdy wall can protect the tribe to a great extent.
After breakfast, Lin Baiyan called Lang Canghuqiu, Lu Xiaotu, Lin Yangye, and a few others to the large cave to hold a small meeting.
A thin piece of deerskin was spread out, revealing a topographical map of the area near their tribe.
Lin Baiyan looked at the beastmen around the wooden table and announced his plan to build a wall, "With a wall and a watchtower, we can see what's happening in the distance."
"Any orc that approaches the tribe will be detected."
He pointed his long, slender fingers at the deer hide, "This is roughly the terrain of our tribe that I drew."
This map is the final version that Lin Baiyan revised repeatedly.
The map shows the terrain surrounding the tribe, including mountains, rivers, forests, and green spaces.
Their various work areas, residential areas, breeding areas, and planting areas are divided very meticulously.
Everyone looked at the exquisite map in disbelief, and Huqiu looked excitedly at the lifelike images on the animal skin.
"Priest, how did you draw this? I never imagined it." He scratched his head, his eyes shining as he looked at the map on the wooden table.
Looking at the map, which showed a very detailed depiction of plains and mountains, Lang Cang immediately recognized its immense value.
