My Salted Fish Life in the Beast World

"One, two, three, four, five..." Piles of items were sorted, wrapped in animal skins, or packed in bamboo boxes and wooden boxes. There were a total of thirty-two loads. This number would be quite impressive even in the North.

Grandma Hong was already numb in her heart. This was the most generous dowry she had ever seen. She had been a matchmaker for so many years. If a female was spotted in a den, she would give her a few pieces of animal skins, some fruits picked from the mountains, and a prey. She would send it to the male's home. That was all a great honor.

In most cases, the male hunts a prey and the female picks a bunch of flowers, and the two animals become a couple. There is no need to hire a matchmaker.

The thirty-two loads of dowry did not include the fresh prey that Wei Heya had hunted. Looking at the pile of prey, Grandma Hong's eyelids twitched.

Alas! The chief and the elder are both capable beasts, but the young master is also young and promising. At a young age, he has his own big cave. He also built such a clean and solid wooden house. This is the first in the tribe. You know, many families in the tribe are several generations of beasts living together. Some don’t even have caves. It’s hard to endure the rainy season and the cold season...

"Grandma Hong!" Yue Jian had almost finished cleaning up and started to look for Grandma Hong.

"Madam, everything is packed. We can go to the young master's house." As he said this, he was ready to call everyone to go to Ming's house.

"Wait a minute, grandma!" Yue stopped her. "Grandma Hong, while everyone is here, take out the betrothal gift that Ye gave to Mingzi and let it hang out in the sun!" Yue said.

"The young female even gave a betrothal gift to the young master!" Grandma Hong was very surprised.

"What a great gift! Compared to the betrothal gift given by Ye, our dowry is not even close to enough! Whenever I think about it, I feel that the little female Ye is being wronged!" Yue's face was full of smiles, and her lips never shrunk.

The tribe leader's house was crowded with orcs of all ages. When they heard Yue's words, they were all surprised and curious. A gift more valuable than these. How rich would it be?

Ya had already taken out a dozen animal skin bags and placed them in the open space in front of the house. "Grandma Hong, you can sing the betrothal gifts now!" Ya called Grandma Hong as he opened the bags.

The orcs around widened their eyes and stretched their necks, wanting to see what was in the animal skin bag.

Granny Hong walked over and saw more than a dozen bags filled with white powder. "This..." Granny Hong looked at Yue in confusion.

Yue smiled and gave her a look to wait, then turned to look at Wei.

Wei stood in front of the bag and looked at the orcs. He cleared his throat and said, "This is the betrothal gift from the female Ye to my son Ming! Sixteen bags of refined salt!"

"Wow~" Cold water was poured into the hot oil pan, and the crowd suddenly exploded!

"Salt? It's salt?..."

"Salt? So white? I've never seen anything like it before!"

"So much salt! It's enough for the tribe to use for several years, no! It should be ten years..."

There was no scene of boiling noise! ​​He stretched out his hands to stop the orcs from making noise. "Everyone be quiet!"

Hearing Wei's voice, the crowd immediately quieted down.

"I know everyone is confused. Now I tell you that this refined salt is better than the salt we exchanged with the mermaids! Moreover, Ye also handed over the salt-making technology to the tribe!"

"Wow!" There was another commotion!

"Anjing! That's right! It's the salt-making technology. We won't have to exchange salt with the mermaids in the future! I'll leave the specific matters to Ya! What I want to talk about today is the betrothal gift prepared by Ye. It's not only for Ming, but also for the benefit of the entire tribe!" He gave Ya a wink!

Ya understood and filled a few cups of refined salt in bamboo cups. He handed them to the orcs. "Come on... everyone, have a taste of our tribe's salt!"

The older orcs took the lead, took the bamboo cups, dipped a little with their fingers, and passed them to the orcs behind them.

"It's salty! ..."

"It's salt! ..."

"Snow-white salt! ..."

"It doesn't taste bitter at all! It's much better than the salt of the mermaids..."

"Yes, yes! They can't be compared at all..."

"May the Beast God bless our Winged Tiger Tribe!..."

Wei curled his lips. It was the salt brought by Ye. What did it have to do with the Beast God? If it was the Beast God who blessed him, it was the Beast God who brought Ye to the Winged Tiger Tribe!

"Okay! Everyone has tasted refined salt. Everyone has made comparisons in their hearts! I don't want to see xenophobia in the tribe in the future, especially on Ye! In the past, Ye brought fire to the tribe and was the most distinguished guest of our tribe! Now Ye and Ming are together! She is even more a member of the tribe! Everyone should treat her warmly and friendly!"

I didn't mention Ye's contribution! I was beating some blind orcs! Ye is from the clan leader's family! He is not alone and can be bullied. Everyone better, keep your guard up! Be enthusiastic and respectful to Ye!

"Don't worry, chief! Not to mention the relationship between Ye and Ming! Just relying on the little female Ye, she brought us fire, which means hope! Now she has brought us refined salt, which means she has brought the future! If anyone bullies her or disrespects her, I will be the first to stand up and say no!" The witch doctor Ze stood up and said to everyone!

Seeing the prestigious Zedu stand up! Many orcs also stood up and promised! Good words came out for free!

Without looking at Xiang Ze, he nodded with satisfaction! Not bad, he is an understanding beast!

"Grandma Hong! It's time to sing the betrothal gifts. We are still waiting for the dowry to be delivered!" Yue Jian had resolved the issue of the betrothal gifts and was busy reminding Grandma Hong.

"Oh, oh...right, right!" We need to take advantage of the auspicious time to get everything done! I'm over this age, and this is the first time I've seen such betrothal gifts and dowries! It really opened my eyes!

"Today the birds are chirping happily! The betrothal gift of the little female Ye is worthy of praise! All the beasts look and taste, this is the happy flower that will lead the tribe to prosperity!..." As Grandma Hong sang the lyrics, Wei Yue and Ya settled down with satisfaction!

Here, Ming didn't sleep all night. His father came over last night and said that the dowry would be delivered today. He cleaned the cave and the wooden house tidy and clean early in the morning!

"Come and sit down! I have cleaned up everything, not a single corner has been left. They are cleaner than your face!" Shi Erye shook his head as he looked at the big tiger running around the house.

Hey! Are you getting married? Hmm... I'm quite excited. I look like a tiger that has taken catnip. I still need to keep my composure and not get flustered.

"Hehe..." Ming moved over obediently and sat next to Shi Erye, his mouth never lowered.

"Ye! I'm so happy! Today I am the happiest tiger in the entire tribe, oh no! In the entire world! I'm so happy, I'm going to let all the animals know that Ye is my partner!"

"Are you happy today? Weren't you happy in the past?!" Heh... Xiong Hu...

After listening to Shi Erye's words, Ming suddenly had some images in his mind... "Hmm..." I can't think about it now, control it, and think about it at night! "The days with Ye are happy! I'll go outside to see if my father and the others are here." Ming ran away with a red face.

"? Why did you suddenly run away shyly? What did I say?" Forget it, I will ignore this inexplicable tiger. I am also very excited, but also very worried. Others have already given their dowries, but I still don't have any betrothal gifts. In modern times, I would be a "phoenix man" who lives off his wife. Kidnapping an innocent "young lady"...

Oh! It seems that I have to talk about it later. When the time comes, I will find more resources that I haven’t discovered yet to help the tribe improve their living conditions! Shi Erye didn’t know that her betrothal gift had been recognized by the tribe and was sung by Grandma Hong in front of the tribe members.

The joyous team, led by Grandma Hong and Yue, marched towards Ming's residence in a mighty manner!

The warriors carried out the dowry one by one, and the orcs finally saw all the gifts.

"Wow~ That's a lot of animal skins! We'll have to use all of our grandson beasts to use them all..."

"Pearls, there are pearls in the opened wooden box. You can only exchange them with mermaids!..."

"That's nothing. Look, there seem to be medicinal herbs in the bamboo basket..." Medicinal herbs in the animal world are precious, and only a few witch doctors know how to prepare them. "So many medicinal herbs that have been prepared and preserved..."

After the thirty-two loads of dowry prepared by Yue were carried away, the next load was Wei and Ya's prey. They were arranged like small hills and carried out in piles.

"My God! How did the chief manage to get so many fresh preys? Eat them quickly, this will be enough food for the entire tribe for half a month!"

"Otherwise, why is he called the patriarch?"

Oh! I can't envy them enough! The beasts' eyes were dazzled. There was greed, envy, and jealousy...

Wei and Ya walked behind, and they didn't care about the eyes of the beasts! Wei had no way to suppress everyone. Ya only had fists in his heart, and his fists were the hardest in the whole tribe!

After the prey was carried away, Yu and Cao led a dozen females, holding the flowers that Wei and Yacai had not taken away, and followed the other beasts to send them to Ming's home.

The animals who were watching the fun followed closely, not wanting to miss any step.
