Chapter 15: Picking up bargains
"Are you really okay, village chief? This is porridge made from taro that has been contaminated by acid rain." Song Qing frowned and asked the question that many orcs were thinking.
The village chief smiled kindly, "Acid rain is bitter and astringent, but this taro porridge tastes fragrant and sweet, without any bitterness.
If you are really worried, you can let the elderly in your family who do not need to have children try it for a while first.
If anyone needs it, please go and collect it. Asong and Alan, let's eat it quickly and pick some more to take home later."
The soft and powdery taro, when cooked with rice, has a silky texture and is especially friendly to the elderly. The village chief loves it anyway.
She would tell the villagers about this news, but only to the villagers in her own village. As for whether others ate it or not, it was really none of her business.
Everyone in the Chu family ate it, including Xuanqing, since he couldn't have children anyway. But after just one bite of the taro porridge, he couldn't stop eating it.
Not to mention Jiang Changle and Chu Weifeng, they ate with gusto and quickly, after all, today's task was heavy.
Seeing this, the other orcs came forward. They didn't bring bowls, so they just rolled up the taro leaves to make a triangular cup, which was definitely enough for drinking porridge.
Everyone originally just wanted to try a bite. They couldn't be poisoned to death after just one bite, right? Besides, they'd been trying for years, and they still hadn't produced a child.
The orcs in Acid Rain Village are all criminals. The amount of food they receive every day is pitifully small, barely enough to keep themselves from starving to death. If they want to eat their fill, they have to rely on finding food on their own.
But in such a harsh environment, where is there anything wild to eat? Usually everyone is half-hungry and half-full.
So, if you have the opportunity to eat a full meal now, why not eat it? Instead of being hungry and uncomfortable and unable to have children, it is better to eat a full meal.
But after this attempt, all the orcs' taste buds were conquered. The taro porridge was fragrant and sweet, much more delicious than white rice porridge, and it was also very filling.
Soon, the big pot of porridge was shared out by the orcs.
Song Qing also ate it, and she felt the power of being full. Could it be that Jiang Changle really relied on taro to avoid the harm of mating?
Anyway, no matter whether the taro is really useful or not, you have to grab it first. Only what you hold in your hands is yours.
"Village chief, the matter of taro must not be leaked outside the village." Song Qing gave a special reminder.
If taro really becomes food in the end, then their Acid Rain Village will be prosperous, but once the news leaks out, the taro will definitely be confiscated by the higher-ups.
Who made it so that the criminals in their exile areas could not own their own private property?
"I think everyone should understand this principle, but the taro growing area must be divided according to the number of people."
Only by treating every villager in Acid Rain Village fairly will they not betray the village and the food will not be handed over.
After eating, the village chief took people to measure the place where the taro grew. This was an urgent matter and could not be delayed.
Suddenly, only Jiang Changle and his family were left on the Jiang family's open space.
"Wife, since we need to divide the area, there's no rush to harvest the taro. Should we build a house first?"
Who knows when acid rain will come? It hurts so much when it hits their bodies. They can't hide in other people's homes, and hiding under big-leaf trees is not a solution either. They must have a home.
Jiang Changle thought the same. She didn't want to sleep in the ruins anymore. "Yes, but I want to expand. One room is not enough."
It is not good to live without a kitchen, and it is also inconvenient to live without a bathroom. Under normal circumstances, a house should have a living room, a bedroom, a kitchen and a bathroom.
Adding the separate rooms for the five beastmen, Jiang Changle immediately thought of the courtyard house. It is safe and saves building materials. After all, there is no need to build special walls.
But before Jiang Changle finished explaining his plan, Xuan Qing refused to listen. "Hmph, you build yours. Anyway, you can't use the glue I gave you."
Xuanqing immediately seized the glue sent by the village chief.
"How can you be so selfish? Although the glue is allocated to the new beast husband, the wife's house has collapsed. You should shrink your house and give some of it to the wife."
If Xuan Qingjun gave out some of it, plus the extra money the village chief gave to Jiang Changle, they would be able to build two houses.
It is enough to sort out the old materials such as stones and thatch.
"What does it have to do with me if you have no place to live?" Xuan Qing retorted casually, not giving in at all.
The Jiang family has no house to live in, isn't it Jiang Changle who collapsed it? This is called self-inflicted suffering, he doesn't bother to care.
"So, you plan to stop relying on my wife in the future, right? You want to live apart from her, right? Fine, you don't have to eat with us either."
Chu Weifeng made the final decision, wishing Xuan Qing would get away so that he could monopolize Jiang Changle.
But Xuan Qing didn't fall for his trick at all, and said shamelessly, "I never said we were separated. She is my wife, so isn't it right for me to eat her?"
If you want to leave him for the good things, it’s impossible.
"You?!" Chu Weifeng's eyes immediately turned red with anger. How could there be such a shameless orc? It was so disgraceful for a man.
Seeing that the two beastly men were about to fight, Jiang Changle quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Okay, Xiaofeng, let him have the glue.
If there is not enough glue, we can use cement instead; if thatch is not strong enough and will leak, we can just burn some tiles.
The stones were not flat enough, so we burned some bricks; and the beams were made from the big eucalyptus tree trunks, which could also be used to make doors and furniture.
I came out of the forest yesterday and saw a lot of large, dry eucalyptus trees on the road. Just chopping down one or two would be enough."
Since he started planning to build the house, Jiang Changle had already thought of a solution. There was no need to use any glue at all, so it didn't matter if he just left it all to Xuanqing.
Chu Weifeng was stunned. He didn't understand what Jiang Changle was saying at all, but one word caught his attention. "What is a big eucalyptus tree?"
They were also short of wood here, and Jiang Changle could easily cut down two trees, which made Chu Weifeng suddenly feel very uneasy.
"That's the kind of big-leaf tree." Jiang Changle pointed into the distance. Big-leaf trees can be seen everywhere, so why can't they be used?
"Puff! That's the most acidic tree, and it can also block acid rain. Cutting it down is strictly prohibited. Do you want to be the first female to be executed for disobeying the order?"
Jiang Changle actually dared to set his sights on Dayeshu, Xuanqing almost laughed himself crazy.
"What are you afraid of? I only cut down dry trees, which will not affect shelter from the rain, and I also know how to remove the acidity of those trees." With the spiritual spring water, there is nothing to worry about. Jiang Changle winked at Chu Weifeng meaningfully.
Chu Weifeng immediately thought of the two unusual pools by the stream. Maybe he could give it a try?
"Well, since my wife wants to try it, Xiaofeng will accompany her to the end." Chu Weifeng was still somewhat convinced of Jiang Changle.
There seemed to be some secrets between the two of them, which made Xuan Qing very unhappy. "Hmph, don't involve me if anything goes wrong."
Out of sight, out of mind. Xuan Qing turned and left.
Orcs' houses are simple, and basically every male can build one. Moreover, they are very strong, so even without help from others, a male orc can build a house in two or three days.
Newly formed male orc couples have ten days off and don’t have to go to the mine. Xuanqing is naturally going to get materials to build his own house.
Jiang Changle didn't know about this, but he didn't have time to care about Xuanqing. "I'm going to go make bricks and tiles first. Xiaofeng, are you coming?"
Jiang Changle walked towards the stream. She had seen an area of soil that was just right for making bricks and tiles.
"Of course, I'll follow my mistress wherever she goes~" Chu Weifeng smiled. He had a feeling that he could get a great deal by following Jiang Changle.
