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

Lin Xi didn’t know what the orcs were thinking. If she knew, she would probably say: If we encounter a year of severe drought, planting will not work and it will probably be a waste of effort!

But now, whether it is Lin Xi, Bai Nu, Wu or the orcs in the tribe, they are all looking forward to planting!

Even the orcs who were watching took the initiative to offer to help Lin Xi.

But after thinking about it, Lin Xi refused.

This piece of land is not big. Lin Xi estimated that it is only about ten acres in size. The orcs that Bai Nu called over to help are enough. If there are too many people, it will only become more chaotic.

The land was cleared much faster than Lin Xi had imagined.

Before starting to clear the land, Lin Xi first led the orcs to make a batch of farm tools.

She and Wu Chen made the farm tools in advance at home, and the beastmen only had to follow the patterns and grind out the same ones using animal bones.

Although this land is very close to the mountain, there is not much sand and gravel in the soil, but there are a lot of dead branches and weeds. These farm tools are needed to clear out some of the hard branches and large grass roots.

If this work were done manually, it would naturally be extremely laborious, but for the orcs, it is very easy.

Lin Xi took the tools and demonstrated to the orcs. He first used a hoe to turn over the soil in the ground, turning out the grass roots and a small amount of stones buried underground.

Then use a bone rake to gather all the grass roots and branches from the loosened soil, put them into an animal skin bag and dump it out.

The orcs learned quickly, and once they had mastered the technique, they dispersed and went about their business.

Lin Xi watched the amount of soil being turned over in front of him increase little by little, but he did not feel excited at all.

There were too many things to do, and her brain was a little overwhelmed for a while. She kept thinking about so many things that it gave her a headache.

"Lin Xi Sage, is there something wrong?"

Bai Nu's voice suddenly came from the side. Lin Xi came back to his senses and realized that he had been thinking for too long and his expression was too serious, which had attracted the attention of several orcs beside him.

She shook her head and wanted to say something, but felt that it was too hasty to say it. After thinking for a while, she said to Bai Nu: "There are many things that need to be prepared, but I haven't thought about the details yet."

"However," Lin Xi looked towards the river not far away: "We still have to think of a way to bring water here when we need to water the seeds in the field."

After listening to this, Bai Nu thought for a while and roughly understood that Lin Xi meant to get water to the land that was being cultivated in front of him.

"What to do?"

He asked Lin Xi in confusion, thinking that as long as Lin Xi told him how to do it, he would point out a few orcs to help on the spot.

The orcs who had just come to watch the fun haven't left yet.

Although Lin Xi didn't need them to do anything, he was happy for them to watch the land reclamation process from the side, so that he wouldn't have to teach them when everyone started farming together in the future!

Lin Xi heard Bai Nu's words and fell into deep thought. She really hadn't figured out what to do yet!

"I don't know. I need to think about it."

She sighed slightly. First of all, digging a well is definitely not an option!

In such a large area, even if a well is dug, it will be useless if there is no way to pump out the water. After all, there is no material here to make a hand-pumped well!

The only solution Lin Xi could think of now was to dig a canal and then build a waterwheel to divert water into the canal.

But making a waterwheel is really troublesome!

Although Lin Xi knew the working principle and appearance of the waterwheel, if she was really asked to make one, she would have to rack her brains to figure it out.

With a sigh, Lin Xi deeply felt that he had a long way to go and a heavy responsibility to shoulder.

All things are difficult at the beginning, and she seems to be the one who starts.

The orcs reclaimed ten acres of land in less than a day. The wasteland that was still full of withered yellow weeds in the winter in the morning had changed its appearance at this time.

The moist soil underground was turned out, exposed to the air in a flat and loose manner. The dark soil color appeared on the edge of the white forest, which was particularly conspicuous.

Lin Xi finally decided to get a waterwheel.

This is the only way she can think of to divert water for irrigation.

So she looked at Bai Nu and said, "We still have to dig a canal. That is, dig a ditch from the river to this side to let the water flow over."

She pointed in the direction of the river and followed her finger along the route to the edge of the land.

In fact, we can dig a few more reservoirs at the edge of the field, but there is not enough land now, so we can’t use it for the time being.

As for the waterwheel, she will have to study it slowly in the next few days.

After Lin Xi explained his request, Bai Nu gave an order and the canal soon took shape.

For the orcs, digging ditches is much simpler than when they first reclaimed the land.

After the canal was dug, Lin Xi stopped working for the time being. She had to go back and figure out how to make the waterwheel, sort out the seeds she had, and remember the time to sow them.

When I returned to the cave, the shadow of the branch that Lin Xi had planted on the ground had already moved towards the northeast.

It is almost two o'clock in the afternoon, which is the last warm time of the day.

Lin Xi sat on the wooden block outside the cave, thinking secretly.

The newly reclaimed land is collective land of the tribe.

But in fact, she still wants to have a small piece of land of her own, even if it is just to grow some vegetables.

She looked towards the right side of the cave.

Lin Xi and Wu Chen's residence is located at the outermost part of the tribe in the south. Further over there is a small hillside and a river beach at the foot of the hillside.

The mountain on which the tribe relies also ends here. Further over there is a river running through the two mountains, and an open space on the other side of the river.

Lin Xi planned to cultivate this small piece of land on the right side of the cave into his own vegetable garden.

After all, we are close to the water.

And the most important reason is that Lin Xi actually wants to occupy this place as his own!

In this case, there would be no place for other orcs to live on the right side of her cave, and the place where she and Wuchen lived would be at the very edge.

Lin Xi loves living in this location!

Due to her personality, she would feel anxious whether she was sandwiched between two people or her residence was sandwiched between two residents.

Nestling alone in a corner will make her feel very relaxed!

But there is no rush for these at the moment, she still has to get the water truck out first.

Lin Xi found a branch and started writing and drawing on the ground. Wu Chen had nothing to do, so he found some animal skins and started making new shoes for himself and Lin Xi for the spring.

Wu Chen knew how to sew things, and he had helped Lin Xi when she was making shoes before, so he already knew how to sew shoes.

"Xixi, are the new shoes made of giant pig beast skin?"

Wu Chen asked Lin Xi while holding a slightly larger piece of black animal skin.

Lin Xi raised her head and took a look. She inexplicably felt that the male beast, who was looking down at her at this moment, was full of the temperament of a good wife and mother!

She suppressed her laughter and nodded: "Okay, I'll make a pair for you too."

The giant pig beast is called a pig, but it is actually a large animal with a square head and a nose half the length of an elephant. However, it is not as big as the giant beast, nor does it have such strong attack power.

It is covered with black hair and its skin is not too thick, so it is suitable for making clothes in spring and autumn.

Lin Xi thought about it, and then said to Wu Chen: "Wu Chen, do you have to wear a fur skirt in spring?"

Wu Chen was stunned for a moment, then said affirmatively: "Well, if you want to go out hunting, an animal skin skirt will be convenient."

In winter, he didn't need to go out often, so he transformed into his beast form less often. Wu Chen wore the pants Lin Xi made for him. But now that he was about to start hunting, it was very troublesome to transform while wearing pants.

He spread out the animal skin in his hand, and understood the meaning of Lin Xi's words just now: "Then I will make two animal skin skirts for myself."
