Wilderness Live: I stand at the top of the food chain

Chapter 96 The easiest storage method, sprinkle salt

Hearing this, the patriarch became visibly excited.

"What? You...you have a way?"

Lin Ran nodded, and then said: "Yes, there is, but the meat stored in this way may not be very tasty at that time."

"Harm" the patriarch waved his hand, "That doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't kill people."

I'm going to starve to death, and I still care about whether the meat is good or not.

"That's right, if that's the case, when will I have time to teach you how to do it?"

"There is time! There is time now!"

The patriarch was so excited that he was about to drag Lin Ran out.

"Eh?! Wait a minute, I'll put on some clothes first."

"Oh, good."

The patriarch also realized that he seemed a little too urgent, and he was somewhat embarrassed, so he walked to the door and waited for Lin Ran.

After a while, Lin Ran came out, and several people walked directly to the square.

At this time, there are mostly old people basking in the sun in the square.

The patriarch took out a bone whistle and blew it.

The bone whistle was silent, at least Lin Ran and the others couldn't hear it, but Xiao Hong seemed to be able to hear it, jumping up and down on Lin Ran's shoulder a little excitedly.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp!" Assemble, assemble!
Lin Ran understood that it turned out to be a gathering for everyone.

Soon the orcs who remained in the tribe came out from their homes.

The patriarch saw them coming out, so he said, "We have to die a lot of warriors every winter to catch prey."

Speaking of this, some orcs who died because their families hunted in winter couldn't help sobbing twice.

"The Beast God will protect them forever."

As the patriarch bowed his head, the rest of the orcs also bowed their heads, as if mourning for them.

After a while, the patriarch raised his head first.

"I just asked Lin Ran if there is a way to store food for a long time. I was going to give up, but Lin Ran knew it and was willing to teach us!"

Hearing the patriarch's words, all the orcs looked at Lin Ran in surprise. After seeing Lin Ran nodding, their eyes were full of gratitude, and some orcs even cried outright.

No way, food in winter is too important to them. They used to risk their lives, but now they suddenly know that there is a way to preserve food for a long time, which means that they will not have to risk their lives to catch wild animals this winter. .

Originally, Lin Ran thought that those orcs whose family members were attacked to death by ferocious beasts because they were hunting in winter would feel unfair when they got the news, and even resent why Lin Ran didn't arrive earlier.

This does not mean that they are selfish, it is just the root of human inferiority.

It's like, your family member died because of something, and right after the death, your friend said: "Oh, this, I know what to do to not die", and you will definitely complain why he didn't say it sooner.

The same goes for these orcs.

But what Lin Ran didn't expect was that those orcs just mourned their dead family members, not so much mourning, but more like bringing the good news to the family members who returned to the embrace of the beast god.

The orcs sat in the square with great interest, discussing how to store food for a long time. In this situation, the orcs who went out to hunt came back.

When they saw all the orcs gathered in the square, the first reaction of the hunting team was that there were beasts invading, but everyone's expressions were different.

After seeing the hunting team come back, the patriarch repeated what he said before. Everyone couldn't believe it at first, and then cheered.

"Oh!!! This is great!" Ryan danced happily, and then asked loudly, "Grandpa! How did you think of it!"

The patriarch didn't ask for credit, he pointed to Lin Ran next to him and said, "Lin Ran came up with the method."

Lin Ran nodded expressionlessly, and at this moment, a row of [Pretentious] was quickly brushed across the barrage.

Pan Dalong also felt a little unbalanced, and muttered to Lisa Jiang next to him: "Why don't they look for me, I know it too!"

Lisa Jiang chose to step aside, ignoring this fool.

Seeing that everyone came back, and the hunting team distributed the prey they had caught to everyone, Lin Ran said: "The method is actually very simple, but it is more expensive."

If it was normal, the orcs might still be very worried, but now, they are guarding such a large salt lake, so don't panic!

With that said, Lin Ran asked Lisa Jiang to demonstrate to everyone.

Lisa Jiang took out a piece of meat, cut it open, then took out a jar of salt, and spread it evenly on the piece of meat.

Looking at Lisa Jiang last night, Lin Ran said, "It's like this, and then hang it in a ventilated place to dehydrate the meat."

The orcs who were ready to take notes didn't expect it to be so simple, and they were all a little sluggish.

At this time, the patriarch coughed twice, pulling everyone back from their thoughts.

"How about this, let's give out some meat from each household first, and let's put it together for an experiment. If it succeeds, everyone will get their own meat back, how about it?"

Naturally, no one would disagree. After all, once they succeed, they will have a much better life this winter.

Some families with male orcs are fine. The male orcs in the family can participate in hunting, so they can get a little more meat. Those orcs without mature males in the family can only get a small part of the food.

There is no way, the soldiers always come first, not to mention the need to preserve combat power, after all, they also exerted a lot of strength during the hunting process, and some even suffered serious injuries.

When everyone was busy bacon, the patriarch came to Lin Ran's side.

"Lin Ran, look at that spicy fruit, is there any way to keep it for a while longer?"

chili?It is naturally possible to make dried chili, as long as it is not placed in a humid place, it can be stored for a long time.

"This is naturally possible, but the orcs seem to seldom eat that, patriarch, why did you think of saving the spicy fruit?"

Orcs generally have very keen five senses, which gives them a lot of advantages when hunting, but it also means that these orcs will not eat some food with a strong taste.

"It's like this. I see that after eating spicy fruit, you will sweat all over, so I thought, if some orcs get sick because of the cold weather, can they use spicy fruit to treat them?"

I have to say that this patriarch is indeed very smart. Peppers can indeed produce sweat, treat colds and colds, and dispel rheumatism.

"OK."

After getting an affirmative answer, the patriarch became even more anxious.

"Then, is there any way to preserve the spicy fruit for a long time?"

Of course there is, and it is very simple, that is, "to dry."

"Ah?" Upon receiving this answer, the patriarch was a little dumbfounded.

"Just let it dry? No salt?"

Lin Ran shook his head, indicating that he didn't need it.

It is not intended to be a small snack of dried chili, whether it is salty or not is not important.
