Magician's Live Stocking Daily [Infinite]

When Li Yang took the barbecue off the bamboo skewer, she received expectant looks from all directions.

She thought about it, picked a large leaf, cut the barbecue into small pieces, put it on the leaf, and invited everyone to come and taste it.

Some, like the little wolf and Xiong Xi, didn't bother to eat it, such as Xiong Yi and the chieftain; some wanted to eat it but were too embarrassed to do so, such as Xiong Yi and the tribe leader; and of course, there were also those who were skeptical about whether this black object was edible.

Don't get me wrong, it wasn't Xiong Xiong who held the last view, but other orcs who saw the fire and rushed from all over the mountain.

Geshan does not belong only to the bear people. The rhinoceros tribe in the south of the mountain and the monkey tribe in the north of the mountain also live on this fertile land. They are friends and competitors of the bear people.

The strange phenomenon in the bear tribe attracted the attention of all the orcs. They were shocked by the red light rising into the sky and decided to send warriors to find out what was going on.

Here, they finally understood the reason for the incident.

When he was fifty-six years old[1], a goddess came to the world and gave him fire.

The rhinoceros tribe, who had figured out what the red light was, were about to leave when they heard Xiong Xi exclaim, "It's delicious!"

They paused for a moment. Could this thing really be delicious?

There was also a bear person who was grilling meat on the fire nearby, imitating Li Yang's example. Her technique was actually quite good. Only a small piece on the surface was burnt due to improper operation, but the rest of the meat looked no different from those grilled by the goddess.

She didn't even have time to blow before she took a bite.

Well, it does taste completely different from raw meat. But it doesn't seem to be as delicious as Xiong Qi said?

As expected, don’t worship blindly.

This female bear, who was very good at doing things, was named Xiong Ruo. She thought about it and handed the uneaten meat to Xiong Ruo, who was staring at Li Yang eagerly: "Here, it's for you."

It is the bear’s responsibility to care for its cubs.

But the cub did not appreciate her kindness.

Xiong Qi took the skewer with surprise, took a bite, and handed it back unhappily: "It's different from the one the goddess grilled. It's not tender enough and not tasty."

It was clearly the same deer! The same roasting method! Xiong Ruo felt that her proud hands-on skills had been insulted, and she asked unwillingly, "Why is it different?"

Xiong Qi thought for a moment and said, "The barbecue made by the goddess has a richer flavor and smells better."

Xiong Ruo wanted to continue arguing, but she saw Li Yang put another piece of barbecue on the leaf.

When no one was watching, she grabbed a small piece and put it into her mouth, chewing while muttering, "What's the difference?"

The tender and juicy meat bursts between your lips and teeth. The browned skin is somewhat tough, but the meat inside is easy to chew, and you can taste the unique deliciousness in every bite.

Really different?!

She was stunned for a few seconds before she rushed over and shouted, "Goddess, did you cast a delicious magic on the barbecue? Or - are you the god in charge of barbecue?!"

Li Yang was amused by her. She looked at the barbecue in the bear man's hand and asked, "Can I have a small piece?"

"Of course!" Xiong Ruo agreed immediately, but then looked embarrassed, "But it may not taste very good."

As soon as the meat entered her mouth, Li Yang knew what the problem was.

She instructed Xiong Ruo: "When cutting the meat, follow the grain of the meat, otherwise it will be difficult to chew."

She demonstrated her technique for cutting the meat, and seeing that the girl was listening attentively, she continued, "And, I really do add a little magic after roasting it."

"What magic?" Xiong Ruo raised her head.

Li Yang pulled out the bag of condiments and said, "These are the things called salt, cumin, and chili."

Seeing that they didn't believe her, she poured a few grains of salt into her palm and continued to add: "This thing not only makes the meat taste better, but also replenishes the substances the body needs and makes the body stronger!"

Seeing Xiong Ruo thoughtful, she handed the bag to her: "If you are interested, you might as well try it. Just add a little bit, don't be greedy."

The little girl thanked Li Yang and ran away happily.

Hearing this, the rhinoceros who had also tasted the barbecue could no longer sit still. They bowed to Li Yang and then made their plea in a humble tone: "Excuse me, Goddess, can you give us some of this as well?"

The rhino tribe does not care about food, but they want to make their bodies stronger!

This is the foundation for the survival of this clan!

"Okay." Li Yang looked at them with bright eyes: "But what can you bring me?"

Even though she was wearing the skin of a goddess, she couldn't just give things away. She needed to make these orcs understand the concept of exchange.

The Rhino understood.

So, this group of warriors took out things that they thought were precious enough from their bodies and presented the goddess with the treasures of the south of the mountain - various fruits, beautiful flowers and plants growing on the cliffs, and even stones that they thought were beautiful.

Li Yang looked at them one by one, and finally stopped in front of the last pile of stones.

She picked up a golden stone and asked, "Where did you get this?"

The leading warrior of the Rhino tribe replied: "There is a mountain next to our tribe, and the foot of the mountain is full of such stones."

Li Yang could hardly contain her excitement, but she still pretended to be calm and instructed them: "You can use this stone to exchange for salt, the more the better."

Hey, gold for salt, whoever exchanges it knows.

She thought for a moment, then took out a few hard axes and a large bamboo frame from the space, and told them: "These are tools given to you."[2]

Modern iron axes are much more advanced than stone axes, and the warriors were ecstatic.

No one will stop the goddess from making the deal, but they will think about how they can achieve the same cooperation.

The bear people had the upper hand in finding the goddess, but they were not naive enough to think that she would selflessly give them everything they wanted, especially after witnessing what had just happened.

After the rhino tribe said goodbye, the bear tribe leader whispered a few words to the bear people around him. After a while, several warriors came running over with some crystal clear stones.

The chief presented the stone to Li Yang. Although it seemed to be of no use, he guessed that the goddess liked such flashy things.

Sure enough, Li Yang's eyes also became sparkling.

jade!

Help, it looks like I’m going to get rich this time!

Without waiting for Li Yang to ask, the tribe leader took the initiative to inform: "This was found by our tribe members. In the river that runs through the entire tribe, there are stones like this everywhere. I wonder if the goddess likes it?"

Of course Li Yang likes it.

She made an agreement with the team leader: "Take me to see it tomorrow."

At this point, the bonfire dinner was actually about to end. The beastmen offered fine wine, used pigs, cows, and sheep as sacrifices, held beautiful jade in their hands, danced around the fire, prayed for blessings and warded off disasters, and hoped that the coming year would be good weather and everything would go well.

They sang--

"May Heaven protect you and grant you a good harvest. May you be blessed with everything you desire. May Heaven bless you with a hundred blessings. May Heaven bless you with a thousand blessings.

Heaven protects and stabilizes you, so that everything will prosper. Like a mountain, like a hill, like a hill, like a river, so that everything will increase.

……

As constant as the moon, as rising as the sun. As long-lived as the southern mountain, never collapsing or crumbling. As luxuriant as the pines and cypresses, all will be supported.”[3]
