Farming in the Beast World: I Lead the Orphan Beast Husband to Become Rich

The next morning, it was slightly cloudy.

But this does not affect the good mood of the orcs after returning from a long journey and reuniting with their relatives after a long separation.

The tribe's homecoming ceremony will be held in the evening, and preparations will not begin until after the afternoon.

So early in the morning, Lin Xi decided to take advantage of the morning time to prepare a place for the little animals to play during the day.

So while Wu Chen was making breakfast at home, Lin Xi went to find Bai Nu. She planned to give the task of collecting wood to Bai Nu and let him find orcs in the tribe to do it.

Bai Nu had long known that Lin Xi had begun trying to raise animals, and when he heard Lin Xi's request, he immediately agreed.

By the time Lin Xi finished his meal and had just chosen a location for the feeding pen, an orc had already arrived from outside the tribe dragging a whole big tree.

"Xixi, what should we do?"

Wu Chen stood beside Lin Xi, looking curiously at the empty space in front of him where Lin Xi had nailed the four corners with wooden sticks.

When Lin Xi heard this, he pointed to the vegetable garden not far away and said, "It can be done just like the fence of the vegetable garden, just surround it with wooden sticks. But one side needs to be fenced in more densely, because I want to use that part to raise chickens."

Lin Xi had already made up her mind. She only planned to put the chickens and white-haired beasts in the breeding pen.

Of course, more small animals such as curly-haired beasts and yellow-haired pigs may be added in the future.

But she didn't dare put the rabbit in there. The little thing was very fast at digging holes. I was afraid that it would dig a hole and run away just after its front foot entered! So she planned to make a big cage for the rabbit and keep it in cage.

The orcs were still sending wood here. Lin Xi and Wu Chen worked together to process the wood sent back by the orcs into pieces about one and a half meters long.

When she saw that it was almost done, she asked the orcs to stop collecting wood and start sticking the sticks into the ground together.

After the breeding pen of nearly 200 square meters was almost completed, Lin Xi separated out a small pen of about 20 square meters on the side close to the vegetable garden.

The wall of this circle is made of one wooden stick after another. This is the fixed place for raising chickens. A chicken coop will be built inside later and it will be completed.

Because of the help of the beastmen, Lin Xi's breeding pen was built quickly. After it was ready, Lin Xi drove the white-haired beast in first.

Then she asked Wu Chen to catch the seven big chickens one by one, cut off the feathers on their wings neatly with a bone knife, and then threw them into the breeding pen.

Several orcs who came to help watched her movements. After Lin Xi finished cutting the feathers, they couldn't help but ask curiously, "Wise Lin Xi, will the gray chicken and red-feathered chicken not fly away like this?"

"Yes!"

Lin Xi smiled and looked up: "But after the cut feathers grow back, we have to cut the new feathers again, otherwise the feathers will still fly away when they grow too long!"

After hearing this, several orcs nodded thoughtfully.

Some of the orcs who went to the Spring Festival together had already started to learn from Lin Xi how to capture animals alive and raise them on their way back.

However, raising animals is still a hassle for them, because they need to take care of the animals' eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, but they cannot eat their meat.

Lin Xi has also told Bai Nu that, based on the current situation, she still only recommends that herbivorous beastmen learn breeding techniques, as the benefits to carnivorous beastmen from learning them are not great.

Because the main purpose of letting the orcs raise animals is to have more food in the winter.

However, for carnivorous orcs with huge appetites, raising animals takes a long time, and the number of animals that each individual orc can raise at one time is very small. It is impossible to raise hundreds of animals at once, so it is really unnecessary.

But for herbivorous orcs who are not good at hunting, it is very cost-effective.

Because they can eat little meat at one time, even if they can only feed fifty chickens from spring to winter, then if they hunt some other animals at the end, it will be enough for them to eat for the whole winter!

But the most important thing is that Lin Xi doesn't want the carnivorous orcs to lose the opportunity to exercise their physical fitness through hunting.

If all meat they eat in the future depends on farming, the fighting capability of the orcs of the Mountain Fire Tribe will definitely decline, which is a very dangerous behavior!

After temporarily building the breeding pens for a few animals, Lin Xi used the remaining wood to make a small planting box.

She filled it with soil, sprinkled half of the bamboo seeds she brought back, and watered it. She had no experience in growing bamboo before, so she could only try it out based on her experience in growing other crops.

The other half of the bamboo seeds were kept, in case the seedling cultivation failed this time, there would still be a chance to try again.

By the time all this was done, it was already noon and Lin Xi was starting to feel a little hungry.

As the weather gets warmer, the daytime hours are gradually lengthening. Lin Xi feels that after a while, she might go back to eating three meals a day.

"Wu Chen, let's go catch some fish!"

Lin Xi took out the large, dusty fishing net at home and went to call Wu Chen.

Wu Chen took it and nodded, looking at Lin Xi's stomach: "Xixi, are you hungry?"

"Yeah." Lin Xi nodded: "I'm a little hungry, and I just want to eat fish. It's cloudy today, let's make some fish soup."

"it is good."

When Wu Chen heard this, he quickly agreed and followed Lin Xi to the river.

The river water in spring seemed to be a little bigger than in winter. Wu Chen carried a fishing net and went to the river to catch fish. Although the net was big, he didn't need Lin Xi at all. He could hold it up and walk around in the river.

Seeing that he could not help, Lin Xi bent down and walked slowly along the river to see if he could see something else.

Unfortunately, it was noon, and only some finger-sized fish could be seen on the river bank. Pulling aside the rocks by the river, you could see piles of transparent shrimps, but they were too small to make Lin Xi want to catch them and eat them.

While Lin Xi was squatting by the river and picking at the cracks between the rocks, Wu Chen had already come ashore with a fishing net!

She hurried over to take a look, and immediately saw a dozen fish as long as her forearm jumping in the center of the net. They were all quite large!

Lin Xi immediately became happy when he saw it!

Most of these fish are white-backed river fish with only a black seam on their belly, so the orcs simply call them white-backed.

There are not many scales on the fish, and there is only one main spine in its body, so it is very convenient to eat.

She thought the skin of this fish was very suitable for making fish skin paper.

Because it has few scales, it can reduce the reflection caused by the scales.

When Lin Xi finished making the fish skin lamp, he planned to make a fish skin window with the scales removed when he had time.

At that time, she wanted to rebuild the lights and windows as well.

Otherwise, the kaleidoscope-like phosphorescence reflected by the old lampshade of the oil lamp is really dazzling!
