Chapter 157 (New update on the 6th) Daily Life of the Golden Cat Tribe
Lingye laughed angrily: "You are already an adult, why are you still comparing yourself with a cub?
You are such a big guy, you probably don't need to drink fish emulsion to nourish your brain."
Xiaobai was stunned. Facing Lingye's venomous tongue, he could only touch the back of his head and blush in embarrassment.
The bear beastman Azhu asked Xiaobai: "Is everything okay in the Golden Cat Tribe?"
Xiaobai quickly replied: “Everything is fine.
You don’t know that our food is very popular among the surrounding tribes. Even tribes far away from the Golden Cat have come in groups.
They are scrambling to exchange our food, fearing that they won’t be able to get it.
Because it was rumored that they had to keep enough food for seeds and the year's rations, there wasn't much that could be used for exchange, and the City of Beasts would also have to send a Snowy Owl Transport Team to buy food.
Chief Xiaer and Brother Hesen are very busy every day, entertaining several groups of people every day."
Xiaobai looked very proud and kept talking about "our food", as if he was really going to marry us.
The bear beastman was a little confused and asked, "Only our own people know that the City of Beasts wants to exchange for food.
How did other tribes know this news?"
Xiao Bai patted his chest and said:
"Of course I was the one who spread the news. I let all the tribes in the forest know that food is a scarce commodity. If you hesitate, you may not be able to buy it and will have to wait until next year.
Even our potatoes, sweet potatoes, big watermelons, cabbages, and radishes are all very delicious.”
Li Yan praised: "Xiao Bai is quite capable. He has only been here for a few days and he has spread the news everywhere."
Xiao Bai said: “The Snow Owl Messenger has many eyes and ears, is well-informed, and can deliver messages quickly.
I happen to know a lot of bird-winged orcs in the forest. They love to chirp and spread the latest news in the forest wherever they fly.
All I have to do is give them rice, wheat and corn kernels, and I'll make it happen."
Li Yan was overjoyed, and while cooking dumplings, he waved his hand and added some more dumplings as a reward for him.
It seems that Xiaobai is not just a eater. Although he looks silly, he is actually very smart and capable. He is worthy of being the one who grew up in the City of Beasts and has many connections and has seen the world.
The Golden Cat Tribe and Cuiluan Valley had a bumper harvest of grain this year.
In addition to grain, there were mountains of potatoes, sweet potatoes, cabbage, radishes, etc. Even wheat stalks, corn stalks and rice straw were good things.
He Qianqian sent a message, meaning that all the items that could be sold should be sold as soon as possible.
In the first year, we will first promote the good reputation and good word of mouth of the Golden Cat Tribe.
When there is more food the next year, more people will come to buy it, otherwise there will be no place to store it.
Xiaobai was in a very good mood after praising himself. He happily walked into the small warehouse in the cave and put the supplies he got from the golden cat into it.
"These seasonings, dried fruits, bacon, etc., were all brought here by Brother Hesen. They made a lot of them at once, fearing that you would be too busy to make them yourself."
"Okay. Xiaobai, pick more mangoes for Hesen next time you go there." Li Yan instructed him while handing him a bowl of dumplings.
"Okay. I'll go pick mangoes after I finish eating." Xiaobai took the dumplings, his eyes lit up, sniffed the edge of the bowl, and praised:
"It tastes delicious. Cabbage dumplings are the most delicious food in the world."
At this moment, An An was babbling and waving his paws to try to snatch Xiao Bai's dumplings. Xiao Bai immediately protected the bowl, ran outside, and plunged into the darkness.
Looking at Xiaobai's hurried back, Lingye said worriedly:
"Let Xiaobai go outside to pick mangoes. Will he be caught by the mad beast?"
Li Yan thought for a moment and said, “Although he can fly, if he is attacked by a mad beast, he may not be able to take off in time.
How about Ah Zhu, you go with him to pick mangoes. He is our most important guest and a member of Qingyu’s tribe, so we can’t let him make any mistakes.”
How could Ah Zhu not understand? He immediately agreed and ran out to chase Xiao Bai.
Although the crazy beasts in the Cuiluan Valley dare not approach the isolation zone, they are still very crazy in their respective territories, and scenes of fighting for territory and brutal fights are staged every day.
Crazy beasts are basically at level 4 or 5 or above, and Xiaobai is only at level 2, so he would probably be at a disadvantage if he went alone.
Li Yan said with emotion: "I'm afraid that this time when Qianqian returns with her skills well, she can cure all these crazy beasts."
The bearded goat-beast man said, "They must be like us. After they are cured, they would like to stay here for the rest of their lives."
Another wolf-orc said, "Only a fool would not want to stay here. I just don't know if Lord Ye is willing to take him in."
Lingye pondered for a while, still unsure: "It's not easy for us to make decisions on Ye Qianmu's territory, he has the final say on everything.
Moreover, my female also has some plans for the future of Cuiluan Valley. We will see what to do when the time comes.
Besides, the males may also want to go out and find females to mate with, and if they stay here they will be single for the rest of their lives."
For Lingye, a farming fanatic, he naturally wants more people to stay.
With more manpower, more land can be reclaimed to grow crops and fruit trees.
But if Ye Qianmu likes quietness, then after the mad beasts are cured, they should all be released.

Golden Cat Tribe, early morning.
As usual, He Sen got up at dawn and inspected the entire tribe and the farmland not far away.
Then ask the warriors on night duty if there is anything unusual.
Then he returned home and went into the bamboo shed to make breakfast for the female.
Nian Nian had already stood up. She skillfully cleaned the six cubs and then coaxed them to eat breakfast.
There are 5 cubs in total, 1 males and 6 female. They are now 3 months old and are just old enough to eat complementary food.
The staple food is fresh salmon or tuna, paired with fish emulsion or goat milk.
You should also feed the cubs some lean meat rice porridge and fruit puree every day to change their taste.
Each kitten has a round belly, shiny fur, and is naughty and cute.
Looking at the litter of beautiful golden cat cubs, Nian Nian felt extremely satisfied.
She did not choose to find another beast husband immediately to reduce the burden of caring for the cubs, but chose to take care of them herself.
It’s hard work every day, but it’s also her favorite thing to do as a female beast.
She spread out a piece of soft sheepskin and wrote on it with a stick of charcoal.
Record your daily medical experience.
Yesterday at noon, two warriors who were hunting were injured.
One had his calf pierced by the horns of his prey, and the other was bitten by a poisonous snake in the grass.
Nian Nian was in charge of the treatment, while Granny Tao was supervising from the side, and she didn't need to do anything herself unless it was absolutely necessary.
Nian Nian washed, disinfected, sutured the injured calf, and fixed the leg bone with a splint.
In the past, being bitten by a poisonous snake would have resulted in certain death.
But He Qianqian left a few life-saving antidote injections specifically for snake venom. After Nian Nian injected him with the injection, she also prepared some antidote herbs for auxiliary treatment.
By the evening, the conditions of the two men had stabilized.
After Nian Nian finished writing her medical notes, she spread out a blank piece of sheepskin.
She looked more serious and wrote on it in an orderly manner.
This is a letter written to He Qianqian, using the few characters she knows to express her concern.
He Sen opened the door of the cabin and walked in slowly.
He glanced at the cubs playing on the floor, then turned to hug his female from behind.
He kissed her on the cheek and said with a smile, "What are you doing, Nian Nian?"
"Write a letter to Qianqian. Do you have anything to say to your sister?" Nian Nian looked up and touched his cheek to respond to him.
He Sen looked at the characters drawn with charcoal, and didn't recognize any of them:
"In the past, we told Hai Luo what we said to Qian Qian. Are you planning to write it down and ask Snow Owl to give it to her now?"
"Yes." Nian Nian turned around and said solemnly: "Why don't I teach you how to write? If you and I are separated, we can write letters to each other."
He Sen looked reluctant: "You and I will never separate, never."
He domineeringly held her in his arms and sat her on his lap, hugging her tightly.
Nian Nian smiled and said, "If we don't separate, then you have to learn to write. I have decided to teach you 5 characters every night. If you don't learn it, you won't be allowed to sleep."
She tapped his forehead with her orchid finger and said, "I mean what I say, so don't cheat. We have several bamboo sheds at home. If you don't behave, you can sleep there at night."
Seeing Nian Nian's serious look, He Sen complained in his heart but dared not disobey.
Who made him love her so much?
He Sen winked at her and said ambiguously:
"Then I will learn 5 characters a night. What if I accidentally learn a few more characters? Nian Nian will give me some rewards, right?"
"It depends on your performance." Nian Nian pinched his cheek and continued:
“Learning a few more words a day is not a big deal, and there is certainly no reward for it.
If you can still remember these words after a month, half a year, or a year, that’s real skill.
I will reward you with a big reward then."
Nian Nian kneaded his strong chest and abdominal muscles, and the hint was very obvious.
"I know. I've always heard what our family said."
Staring at her peach-pink cheeks, round dimples, and slender white neck, He Sen's eyes became ambiguous and deep.
Seeing that he was in high spirits, Nian Nian quickly stood up and sat back at the table. After thinking for a moment, she said:
"Then I'll tell Qianqian about everything at home and Uncle Li Yue's affairs, and tell her that you miss her very much."
When He Sen thought of his youngest sister, who made him worry about her, all the anger that had gathered in the early morning disappeared in an instant.
After thinking about it for a while, he said seriously:
"Well, tell her to protect herself and be safe. She can't go out alone and return home as soon as possible after finishing her work."
"Okay." Nian Nian wrote down these words carefully.
If you don't know how to write a word, just circle it or cross it. Qianqian is so smart that she can definitely guess it.
Qianqian will definitely be very happy when she sees the letter.
She thought so happily, and unconsciously, the corners of her mouth rose and a warm smile appeared on her face.
He Sen looked at her charming profile and accidentally became obsessed with her.
Suddenly smelling a burnt smell, He Sen stood up and walked out in a rage.
A pot of porridge almost turned into dry rice.
He put the pot on the ground in annoyance.
It turns out that my cooking skills are too poor.
He had raised Qianqian to be as skinny as a chick. Now he had a female and 6 cubs, why was she still so useless?
He Sen fell into self-doubt again.
At this time, hurried footsteps were heard running towards this side.
He Sen's face turned stern and he went out to greet him.
The one who hurried over was Xia Er’s little grandson Xia Hua.
Before he entered the yard, he called out:
"Brother Hesen, go check it out quickly. I'm afraid a fight is about to break out at the sentry post."
He Sen closed the door of the bamboo shed and followed Xia Hua out.
Xia Hua said as he walked:
"Early in the morning, a group of strange Gray Wolf orcs arrived. They had been running all night from the west side of the forest.
When we proposed the exchange method of 1 basket of meat for 4 baskets of rice, they felt it was unfair and too expensive.
They wanted to exchange one basket of meat for six baskets of rice. So the two sides started arguing. "
He Sen frowned. Originally, the exchange of supplies between two unfamiliar tribes should have brought a middleman to facilitate negotiations between the two sides.
But the Gray Wolf Orc and the Golden Cat did not know each other and had no mutual friends.
This exchange method is actually very fair. After all, it is not easy for them to grow food. And the yield of rice is very low compared to corn.
But rice is one of the best foods for females and their cubs.
Before they arrived, they heard something strange coming from the sentry post.
He Sen's figure flashed, and he turned into a golden cat and rushed forward.
The Gray Wolf Orc relied on the large number of orcs he brought with him and tried to force the Golden Cat to compromise. They were pushing and shoving, and were about to start fighting.
The Golden Cat Tribe must not set this precedent.
He Sen rushed into the Gray Wolf Orcs' team and forcefully pinned the most ferocious orc among them to the ground.
A group of gray wolf orcs came to their senses, immediately transformed into beast form, launched an offensive, and surrounded He Sen.
Faced with the pressure from He Sen's sixth-level supernatural power, the away team did not give in at all.
They all opened their fierce wolf eyes, vowing to suppress the golden cat's momentum.
A group of wolves, working in groups of five, started a round-robin battle, constantly fighting with He Sen.
He Sen was not afraid at all. He was agile and fierce.
Every time, I would deal with the five people who attacked me at the same time as quickly as possible.
He knocked them all to the ground and even used his claws to rub their heads against the ground.
Gradually, the gray wolf's offensive began to weaken, and its rebellious aura also subsided.
She was no longer as arrogant and uncompromising as before.
Not to mention He Sen's powerful fighting ability, just talk about his enviable physical fitness and the cat-beastman's quick adaptability.
After six rounds of attacks by five people, He Sen showed no signs of fatigue and became more and more courageous as the battle went on.
Not to mention, He Sen possesses admirable martial ethics and self-control.
He only subdues and suppresses, and does not actively harm.
Even though he had sharp teeth and cat claws, he did not leave any blood marks on the gray wolf orc.
The more these Gray Wolf Orcs fought, the weaker their momentum became, and their faces turned red with shame.
The captain of the team waved his arm and the gray wolf orcs stopped their attack.
All the gray wolf orcs transformed into human form, indicating that they were not prepared to fight anymore.
He Sen also transformed into a human form and performed the warrior's salute:
"My fellow wolf orcs, I heard that you have traveled over mountains and across rivers and lakes all night to come to the Golden Cat Tribe to exchange supplies.
You may still be hungry, so why not eat first and then exchange supplies. "
He winked at Xia Hua, and Xia Hua and the warriors immediately took out cooked food from the space and fed it to the wolf orcs one by one.
Although the wolf orc was very embarrassed, he was indeed hungry after the fight.
And the braised meat has a tempting aroma.
The wolf beastmen all looked at the captain, waiting for orders.
The middle-aged Gray Wolf Captain nodded and decided to accept the Golden Cat's kindness:
"Thank you for the food, Golden Cat brothers. We will eat it first. After we finish eating, we will exchange it with you in the way you mentioned."
The gray wolf orc happily took the braised meat and ate it with relish, howling at the delicious taste.
He Sen let out a long sigh and looked at them with satisfaction.
This method was specially instructed and taught to him by his youngest sister Qianqian:
You should treat customers who come to buy supplies with kindness. Even if the deal fails, there is still friendship. You should show enough sincerity; but you should also let others know that the Golden Cat is strong and cannot be offended.
He Sen was secretly proud of himself. Although his cooking skills were terrible, he was still good at fighting.
He used both soft and hard tactics and got the timing just right.
