Chapter 223 Is It Okay?
In fact, the most important thing in salt production is selecting people. Zhou Manman directly adopted the most democratic approach and let everyone choose by themselves. The person they choose is definitely the one they trust the most. First, he spread the news that he was looking for people, and then gathered all the orcs who had signed up together.
Let everyone choose for themselves. Most of those who sign up are male orcs, and there are fewer female orcs.
Zhou Manman found Millie among them. When Millie met Zhou Manman's gaze, she looked at her unyieldingly.
Zhou Manman glanced over it very lightly, and after selecting the people, she began to teach them carefully step by step. The steps of extracting salt are actually not difficult. What is difficult is the perseverance. This is a detailed job that takes a lot of time.
The orcs followed Zhou Manman step by step and soon learned it. Time passed day by day.
“I’m back, I’m back!!”
Early in the morning, one could hear the joyful cheers of the orcs. Even Zhou Manman, who lived far away, could hear their joy.
She sat up, looked outside and asked, "What happened?"
Qing Lingyu pinched her face and said, "The beastmen who hunted the beasts are back."
Zhou Manman's eyes lit up slightly, "Is Xiao Mi back too?"
Lin used a bamboo tube to draw some water for her, "It's still early, he won't need it for a long time."
Zhou Manman thought about it and it seemed to be true, but despite this, she still wanted to go and see.
After packing up, he took Lin out. Qing Lingyu worriedly reminded him several times, and Lin replied impatiently, "I'm not a bad person. I will definitely take good care of Manman. Do you need to tell me this?"
Meeting Qing Lingyu's half-smiley eyes, Lin snorted coldly and transformed into a beast, "Manman, come up."
Zhou Manman grabbed Lin's hair, and Lin immediately rushed out like a sharp sword.
Looking at the dot behind him that was getting smaller and smaller, his expectations for strength grew stronger and stronger. Before he arrived, he could hear the sound of noise coming continuously. Seeing the returning orcs being so welcomed and respected, something was slowly taking root in Lin's heart.
Zhou Manman also looked at the orcs. Leading the group were Donglin, Jiao, and Yuan, followed by a number of high-spirited orcs.
When they left, Zhou Manman only took a look from a distance and estimated that the orcs coming and going were actually similar.
The clan leader was not there, and it was Qing Lingyu who came to greet them.
The three leading people first handed over the energy stones they had obtained. When they saw that it was Qing Lingyu, Yuan paused slightly and looked to the side subconsciously. He didn't see the expected person and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. The moment he turned around, he happened to meet Zhou Manman's gaze looking at him.
Her eyes were bright and as beautiful as before, and she looked petite and delicate next to Lin.
Yuan suddenly thought of the scene of their first meeting.
Subconsciously, he smiled at the little female. Zhou Manman was stunned for a moment and also smiled broadly at him.
Yuan suddenly became happy.
Retract your gaze and walk to the back.
The orcs behind dragged a lot of corpses of disgusting beasts. This was the first time Zhou Manman saw a disgusting beast. In the past, she could hear the figure of disgusting beasts in needles and thread, fishing nets, and even meat. The disgusting beasts in her imagination were dark and dirty.
But I didn't expect that this disgusting beast was a hedgehog-like ball, black and white, with extremely sharp spines on its body, which covered its head.
It didn't look scary at all, and she suddenly felt that people's previous fear of the beast was a bit exaggerated.
There is an empty hole on the foreheads of the disgusting beasts, and the energy stone should have been taken from it.
Zhou Manman felt a little bit sorry for what she saw, so she pulled Lin's arm and whispered, "I feel these disgusting beasts are quite pitiful." Everything on their bodies was taken away, and their brains were dug out.
Lin suddenly laughed, "Don't be fooled by his appearance, Manman, the beast has two forms, and it will only reveal its original form when it dies. But the real beast will attack when it sees an orc. You will know when you have time to go and see it."
The orcs who go out to hunt the disgusting beasts work so hard that each of them can leave an energy stone on their body, and the rest must be handed in, but people like Jiao don't need to do that.
"cape!!"
Zhou Manman was still watching when she suddenly heard a heart-wrenching scream.
I was so shocked that my heart skipped a beat.
He looked over quickly and saw Tarasa running to the side of the cape with small steps and hugging him.
Misaki looked at her with amusement, she was panting from exhaustion, but there was not a single bead of sweat on her head and her face did not look like she was crying for her parents.
"You must be exhausted."
Tarasha nodded quickly, "Climbing that mountain really exhausted me, but I was so happy just thinking about seeing you, I didn't feel tired at all."
I don’t know whether Misaki believed it or not, he just raised the corners of his lips and said nothing.
He held Tarasha in his arms and weighed her for a moment, then said to her expectant eyes, "You've lost weight."
Zhou Manman looked at Tarasha's chin and silently looked away.
The corpses of the disgusting beasts need special processing to extract the tender meat for the females to eat. Zhou Manman has been busy solving the problems encountered in salt making recently, and by the way, she has also been thinking about her stall in the city. She has no interest in these disgusting beasts.
Seeing how happy the orcs were after getting the energy stones, he couldn't help but say, "Let's go back, Lin."
Lin nodded, "Are you unhappy, Manman?"
Zhou Manman shook her head. She couldn't say she was unhappy, but when they made peace, she would easily think of Xiao Mi. If Xiao Mi stayed by her side every day, she might not miss him so much, and they might even quarrel every day. But he suddenly left for such a long time, and she felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
Especially since everyone is reuniting.
"Full."
The two people who were about to leave stopped in their tracks. Zhou Manman turned around and looked. Yuan scratched his head and took a few steps forward with a slightly red face.
The oppressive feeling of height made Zhou Manman feel suffocated, and she had to look up to see Yuan's face.
She silently took two steps back, "What's wrong Yuan?"
Yuan held something in both hands, hesitated for a moment, and then stretched out his hand. There were many energy stones placed on it. Zhou Manman took a quick look and saw about ten of them.
"Here you go, full."
Zhou Manman immediately shook her head, "No need, no need for the yuan, just keep it, you worked hard to earn it."
Yuan stretched his hand forward a little further, worried that Manman would feel that it was not enough, and quickly said, "I have a few more at home. I'll go back and get them later." He had always wanted to give some to Manman before, but always felt that it was a little too little. Now it should be enough if we add them together.
The witch doctor said he really likes the energy stone...
Yuan stared at the little female, hoping to see joy in her eyes.
I just looked for a long time and couldn't see it.
I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, "I..."
Lin pursed his lips and didn't say anything sarcastic, but he didn't let Manman accept it either. He also wanted to know what Manman thought.
Zhou Manman finally refused. She didn't dare to look at Yuan's disappointed face and hurried away with Lin.
Yuan stood there for a long time before he felt a dull pain. He put his hand on his chest, a little confused, and slowly turned away.
