Lord: Married To A Countess At The Beginning

Chapter 41: Canned Meat Conquers The Wolf Tribe

Under the leadership of the wolf orcs, Gray and the others quickly arrived at their destination, where there were already many concrete blocks piled up.

Gray looked at this fertile land, and there was a crystal clear river not far away. The entire terrain was very flat and the view was vast. At first glance, it was a perfect land to open up wasteland.

The land here is so fertile that no more additions are needed, and food can be grown if it is reclaimed.

Gray found a place near the water source, and then started to let the strong werewolf boys start working.

The first step is of course to lay the foundation.

If Gray just wanted to build a small town composed of wooden houses here, he wouldn't need to worry about the foundation problem.

But when he came here, he was not satisfied just by building a small town.

So the foundation is very important.

Gray asked someone to draw a circle around a large area.

"Young men of the wolf tribe, I am very satisfied when I see your strong muscles. This is where you work. I believe that old guy Quentin has told you that when you work here, you don't need to consider other issues. As long as you work hard, I’ll have enough food here, so feel free to eat!”

Gray's voice was loud, making every werewolf's eyes light up.

"I brought ten carts of cans today, and there are ten more on the way! There will be more at night! I won't take away any that I can't finish. You can take them back to the elderly, women, or children!"

"I'll calculate the wages for you when the time comes! How about it? I treat you well, right? All I have to ask is, don't be lazy with me when you work. If you work hard for me, I will feed you well!" "

As soon as Gray finished speaking, the originally silent atmosphere suddenly changed.

The wolf boys began to dig in the soil one by one.

Gray looked at it for a while and nodded repeatedly. He was indeed an orc whose physical fitness was far superior to that of a human being. He was so fast at work that the shovel was sparking.

In one morning, the wolf boys dug up almost half of the land.

Seeing that he could finish the digging work this afternoon, Gray was shocked.

"What a wonderful workforce, Mia. My little yellow hat workers have to work for several days, and they finish it in one morning."

Gray's eyes were shining as he looked at the muscular wolf orcs.

Mia was silent for a moment after hearing this. She also knew that the physiques of humans and orcs were incomparable, and when humans were constructing, many people would be lazy and passive at work. They could do three months of work for one month.

But these orcs are different from humans. These orcs are too real.

Work as hard as you can.

To some extent, humans are indeed more cunning, greedy, and lazy than other species.

This is human nature and there is nothing we can do about it.

"Master Gray, although orcs have good physiques and work quickly, they have hot tempers and are prone to anger. They are very different from humans. If we want them to live with humans, it will be difficult to achieve. Forcibly let them live together. It will only cause chaos, so if you really want to subdue them, I suggest you don’t put them together with humans.”

Mia knew that Gray was ready to conquer the orcs again.

She couldn't stop Gray, she could only remind Gray of his main focus.

Gray nodded after hearing this: "It is true that orcs are not suitable to live with humans, at least not at first."

Gray saw that the time was almost up and began to ask the soldiers to distribute food to the wolf orcs.

Considering that these werewolves like meat, Gray brought all canned meat this time, including pork, beef and mutton.

And every can has added salt and spices.

Makes it taste really good.

Anyway, Gray felt it was okay after eating it.

The werewolves had never seen cans, so everyone looked at each other holding a pile of cans.

In their opinion, this is obviously an iron lump, so how can they eat it?

Gray walked out of the crowd, took a box of canned meat himself, and then taught them how to open it.

For werewolves, all they need to do is know how to open it.

Some werewolves even burst the canned meat on the spot when they saw that there was meat inside, and started eating the meat inside.

Gray was speechless when he saw the operations of these orcs. He said loudly: "Try not to burst the cans. This will waste a lot of food. Everyone knows that food is hard to come by. We must save food and not waste it."

"Besides, these cans are cold. You can heat them up before eating them. There are some fires over there. You can heat the cans by putting them on the fire for a while."

After Gray finished speaking, he returned to his team.

Soon, the orcs became familiar with the operation of opening the can. They began to be attracted by the aroma of the meat inside, and then began to taste it. In the end, they all said it smelled really good!

On the orc side, spices and salt are rare items.

Although merchants can bring them salt and spices, it requires a lot of furs and minerals.

Those things can be exchanged for a lot of meat, but they can only give them a little salt and spices, so few orcs in the tribe will buy those expensive condiments.

They have their own condiments, but they just taste average.

The meat has the taste of salt and is very fragrant.

Ordinary orcs have probably never tasted this kind of meat in their entire lives.

So Gray's cans instantly captured the hearts of all the orcs.

It was probably the most delicious thing they had ever eaten.

And they can obviously feel that these cans are definitely not cheap.

For a moment, they all felt a little moved.

Originally, they thought that they and others could just eat some ordinary food to satisfy themselves.

They didn't even expect meat.

Unexpectedly, Gray not only invited them to eat meat, but also the meat was so fragrant and delicious.

The orcs' mouths were full of oil after eating, and at the same time, their affection for Gray soared.

In their impression, humans are greedy and cunning, except Gray.

The brain circuit of the orcs is actually very simple. They follow the simplest communication rules, and they will be nice to whoever is nice to them.

Soon, all the cans given to the orcs were eaten.

Seeing their unfinished expressions, Gray waved his hand and had people start handing out cans again.

The werewolves cheered and started a new round of eating.

In this way, the werewolves ate for three rounds, each of them eating dozens of cans.

Most of the twenty truckloads of cans were dried up.

After eating and drinking, the werewolves picked up shovels again.

As a result of the full meal, the werewolves worked faster.

In less than half an afternoon, the pit was dug, and then the werewolves pounded the foundation into a solid foundation. Then, under Gray's guidance, they began to dig trenches in the outer areas.

After the trench is dug, let them put the cement piers in it.

The cement pier was so heavy that it took several werewolves to lift it.

Soon the foundation was surrounded by cement piers.

Gray's circle of cement piers has two layers, with a thickness of nearly five meters and a height of more than one meter.

It looks like the city wall model has begun to take shape.

By the time I finished all this work, the sky was already dark.

Gray let the orcs have a good rest and then had dinner.

Dinner is still full of canned meat.

In the evening, someone sent another twenty carts of canned meat, and this time they also brought a large number of little yellow hat workers and cement.

While the orcs were eating, the little yellow hats had already filled the pit with gravel and started pouring cement.

The little yellow hats are already very proficient with cement.

But the time goes from evening to evening very quickly.

They didn't work for long before following Gray back.

The rest can only wait until the next day.

Gray did not break his promise. Not only did he give each orc twenty cans of meat to take home, but he also shared the remaining unused cans of meat among the orcs equally.

This left each of them with twenty-five or six cans of meat back.

These canned meats are great, can be stored for a long time, and are extremely delicious!

They plan to go back and give their family a taste and then store the rest.

In this way, they will not worry about having no meat to eat in the future.

I heard that if Gray's trading market is built, they can buy canned meat cheaply from him!

Then you don’t have to worry about going hungry!

The young men of the wolf tribe brought this news back to the tribe, and that night, the werewolf tribe was filled with the aroma of meat.

The heated cans were so fragrant that the orcs' eyes glowed green.

Those werewolves who didn't go to work and didn't get the canned meat could only drool at the smell of the meat.

Many werewolves couldn't help but tempt anyone who had canned meat to share it.

But no one is willing to share it. After all, it is the result of a hard day's work.

This almost caused a conflict, but in the end the elder stepped in to calm it down.

Quentin told everyone that he would trade canned meat with Gray tomorrow, but he would need everyone to take out the previous Warcraft furs, bones, magic plants, and various minerals.

All the werewolves agreed and began to sort out the inventory at home.

Soon they began to worry about whether the price of canned meat would be high.

In this way, in the mixed mood of expectation and worry, the werewolf tribe did not become quiet until late at night.

The next day, when Gray rode a horse slowly to the werewolf tribe with a lollipop in his mouth, he saw werewolves staring at dark circles and bloodshot eyes.

In the open space behind them, various materials piled up into mountains.
