I'm involved in poverty alleviation in a primitive tribe.

In her past life, she had seen videos of people mining sulfur in volcanoes. Those people, in order to make a living, would climb up the crater with simple tools and risk their lives to collect bags of sulfur, just to earn a meager wage.

Sulfur has a wide range of uses. Not to mention its use as an agricultural pesticide and fertilizer, the fact that it can be used is enough to tempt Jiang Ning.

"How often does this volcano erupt?" Jiang Ning turned to look at the giant clam.

The giant clam looked troubled: "This...we don't know either..."

When was the last time you witnessed fire-breathing?

Big Clam: "It was probably before the fifth or sixth festival? It was just springtime then. Our people were starving during the winter, and we were in a hurry to catch prey to take back, so we risked following the prey here."

The people here consider one sacrificial ceremony as a year, and the gathering and scattering of the two stars in the sky as a "year". There are no months, and they simply distinguish them by the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. The alternation of the sun and moon is considered a day.

For example, if there are two children, one born last winter and the other born at the end of this summer, both children will be considered one year old by the time of this year's ancestral worship ceremony. There is no specific method for calculating their age.

This means that, apart from talent and upbringing, children of the same age may have some differences in their awakening time depending on when they were born.

Jiang Ning asked the giant clam, "What did the fire look like that time? How big was it? Tell me in detail."

The giant clam respectfully replied, “Yes. The time I saw it, the volcano had already erupted. The fire flowed down the mountainside, and there was a foul smell everywhere. The sky was filled with ash. The prey we were chasing didn’t dare to go any further when it got here, so we quickly caught it and ran away. The elders of the tribe said that when the volcano erupts, it makes a very loud noise, like a giant beast roaring. We don’t dare to go near here. Only these ferocious birds dare to build their nests here.”

Jiang Ning nodded. Under the current conditions, there's no way to monitor this volcano, and there's no predictable pattern to when it will erupt. However, they could use the brown-feathered eagles to collect sulfur.

She reached into the animal skin bag at her waist, pretending to take something out, but actually took out a tortoise shell from her spatial storage.

She had asked the clam shaman for this tortoise shell before, and after using it to divine her fate, she received a favorable result.

Fearing that her skills were not good enough, Jiang Ning consulted the oracle several more times before finally making up her mind.

"Have the Brown Feather Eagle descend and take me to that volcano," Jiang Ning instructed.

Upon hearing this, the giant clam was terrified and repeatedly tried to dissuade him: "No! Jiang Wu! You can't go! It's too dangerous there!"

The fear of volcanoes among the clam tribe is ingrained in their very being, especially since he had personally witnessed a volcanic eruption.

Hongyue also led her people up, and upon seeing this scene, she couldn't help but ask, "Where is Jiang Wu going?"

As if seeing a savior, the giant clam hurriedly said to Red Moon, "Captain Red Moon, quickly persuade Jiang Wu! She's going to that volcano!"

As expected, Red Moon shared the same thought as the giant clam: "How can this be? Jiang Wu, this is too risky! What are you going to that volcano for?"

“There’s sulfur there, which can be used to kill insects. In the future, there won’t be so many insects in the tribe, and the vegetables that the tribe members grow won’t be eaten by insects forever. I know it’s risky. I’ve already divined it several times, and there won’t be any problems. Besides, with the brown-feathered eagles around, we can retreat as soon as there’s any movement! Even if the volcano erupts now, we can still escape.”

Hongyue still disagreed: "Insects are a minor matter, not worth Jiang Wu's risk."

Jiang Ning sighed, "Shall we go together? I can also teach you how to mine sulfur. With two brown-feathered eagles, at least four of us can go. If there are more people, it might slow down the eagles."

Jiang Ning insisted, and Hong Yue had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

Finally, Hongyue, Jiang Ning, and the owners of the two brown-feathered eagles went together.

"First, get a few sturdy animal skin bags, the bigger the better!" Jiang Ning immediately ordered his men to get to work.

While the others waited in the woods, Hongyue and Jiang Ning each jumped onto a brown-feathered eagle, carrying animal skin bags.

Jiang Ning followed Bei: "See those yellow things at the foot of the mountain? Have the Brown Feathered Eagle land around there."

The closer you get, the more suffocating the smell becomes. There are no gas masks available, and animal hides are not breathable. Fortunately, the soldiers are physically strong enough to hold out for a while.

From the crater to the foot of the mountain, there is sulfur everywhere that no one is mining.

Jiang Ning led his men to hurry up and collect sulfur. They first used weapons to chisel the sulfur off the ground, then broke it into small pieces and put them into bags so that they could collect more.

Seeing that they were all busy with their heads down, Jiang Ning quickly threw the large chunks of sulfur into her spatial storage and then put the remaining scraps into a bag.

Hongyue and the others were worried that the volcano might erupt at any time, and they didn't notice that the sulfur in the area had decreased significantly.

They tied the bags full of sulfur together with rope, had the brown-feathered eagle hold onto them tightly with its claws, and then quickly left.

The brown-feathered eagles had never suffered like this since they were born. They struggled to hold onto the heavy bag and flapped their wings with all their might, finally getting away from the volcano.

Seeing that the group had returned safely, Qingpan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Jiang Wu, the three of them can now mine sulfur. From now on, let them lead us. You don't need to take any risks."

Hongyue wiped the ash from her face: "That's right, Jiang Wu, from now on we'll be the ones collecting sulfur."

Jiang Ning agreed, thinking that the sulfur in the space probably wouldn't be needed for a while.

The group settled the sulfur and pterosaur in a temporary cave, then went to the beach to hunt.

The Clam Tribe still chose the Brown Feathered Eagle, as there were quite a few Brown Feathered Eagles here. After several days of waiting, both the Lotus Tribe and the Clam Tribe harvested more than a dozen young birds, while the Sky Wolf Tribe also harvested more than a dozen fierce birds.

Early that morning, the hunting party arrived at the seaside.

The tide had just receded, leaving many food items stranded on the beach.

In the past, even if the beach was full of prey, no one would dare to pick them up.

Only now that our strength has improved are people willing to give it a try.

There is a large area of ​​reefs here, and Jiang Ning works in perfect harmony with the system.

She took the large tongs she made and casually picked up a big crab, only to be met with the system's response: "Poisonous, do not eat."

She swung her arm and, with a look of regret, threw the crab, which was as big as a millstone, into the sea. She had never eaten such a big crab before.

Jiang Ning then used a knife to pry a large, black abalone off the reef.

System: "It's edible."

Jiang Ning casually plucked the abalone meat off and threw it into the bag. There was no other way; there was just too much seafood, and the shells were taking up too much space.

An octopus was also found in the puddle.

System: "Highly poisonous, throw it far away."

Oh.

Jiang Ning had originally planned to pick up the octopus and throw it into the sea, but then she thought better of it. This thing was soft and could spray ink; with so many suckers, it would be hard to shake it off once it got tangled up with her. So she decided to make a quick getaway.
