Pokemon Settler

Chapter 359 Straw bales

Come in a little bit too, you've had a hard time tonight.

Of course, Rock didn't forget the Black Luga who was also drooling next to him. He used a knife to cut a piece of bacon as big as his palm and threw it to the Black Luga who was looking at him eagerly.

Rock has always adhered to the principle of clear rewards and punishments in the management of these assistant elves in the ranch.

He would not let this Black Luca help the vigil in vain. Although this little bacon was not too much, it was also a reward that other Black Luca did not have at the moment.

Such positive incentives are very important and play a certain role in mobilizing the enthusiasm of the elves.

Sure enough, after eating the bacon, this Black Luga's tail immediately started to wag rapidly.

Originally planning to go back to sleep, it stayed attentively and asked Rock with very positive eyes if there was anything he could do to help.

Okay, if you really want to help, then help me ignite the new charcoal and then go back to rest.

Seeing how enthusiastic this Black Luca was, Rock was naturally embarrassed to refuse it, so he arranged a job for it to make a fire.

After all the first batch of smoked bacon was collected, Rock re-cleaned the fire pits of the ten bacon racks, shoveled out the ashes and put them away for later use.

Then according to the previous steps, he placed a new batch of raw meat and charcoal, and finally nodded to the black ruga waiting for him, indicating that he could start lighting the fire.

The second batch of raw meat has been marinated for a longer time, so the flavor of the smoked spices should be stronger. However, the taste is stronger and lighter. It doesn't make any difference to me. As long as it tastes good, that's enough.

Rock looked at Heiluga who was concentrating on lighting the fire, and reviewed the bacon recipe in his mind.

He is not a professional chef and has no secret recipes, so every time he makes delicious food, he will record the production process and steps.

And review it again. If you think of something that can be improved, try it the next time you make it. If it succeeds, you can improve the original recipe.

Now, Rock has recorded more than half of his personal recipes, all of which are food recipes that he has found delicious since he started farming.

After all, there are not many recreational activities in the wilderness, so studying eating can be regarded as a pastime.

Unknowingly, the black ruga who stayed behind to help had ignited all the charcoal in the ten bacon rack fire pits.

The charcoal fire dissipated the chill of the autumn night and warmed the open space on the river bank again.

Thank you for your hard work, go back and rest.

Rock cut another small strip of bacon for the black ruga and then sent it back to the camp with a wave of his hand.

It's not that he is stingy, it's because these bacons are reserved for winter, so they have to be kept until winter.

After watching the black ruga leave with some lingering feelings, Rock covered the charcoal fires of the ten bacon racks with fresh oak branches, and the billowing smoke rose again.

He walked around among the ten bacon racks and made sure that each bacon rack started the smoking work normally and that the smoking rate was roughly the same. Then he sat down in a place upwind and gathered up. Made a small fire.

In the warm firelight, Rock felt a little sleepy, so he prepared to boil some tea to refresh himself.

Huh? I've finished the black tea I bought from the Stampede last time, so I can only drink birch and pine needle tea.

Looking at the empty tea can, Rock sniffed the lingering fragrance in the tea can, then closed the lid with some regret.

Fortunately, there are still some birch bark and masson pine needles collected in the camp two days ago. They were originally used to boil water to improve the immunity of the sheep. Now we can use some to make tea.

In order to maximize the refreshing effect, Rock did not use needle honey this time, but picked a small handful of unknown berries and threw them in. It could simply suppress the bitter taste of pine needles.

There was still quite some time before sunrise, so Rock took care of the ten bacon racks with a cup of warm tea.

As winter draws closer and closer, the singing insect elves in the wilderness are getting quieter, so the night is very quiet at this time.

Apart from the beeping sound of the fire, there were only occasional strange screams in the distant wilderness. To be honest, it was a little scary to be in the middle of the night like this.

But Rock didn't have any worries, because the clearing cleared by the geraniums on the river bank was very close to his camp. As long as he whistled, a large group of ferocious elves would arrive immediately.

The strange beings in the wilderness seemed to know this, so until the sun rose the next day, Rock did not encounter any strange things.

Hey~

Heiluga got up early and ran over to replace him.

Ha~ I'm leaving it to you. By the way, this is the first batch of smoked bacon. You can try it.

Rock yawned, gave Heiluga a piece of bacon to taste, and then returned to the camp.

At this time, the other elves in the camp had not yet gotten up. Upon seeing this, he set an alarm on his watch for an hour and a half, and then fell down on his camping bed.

After catching up on his sleep for half an hour, Rock regained his energy.

He did not have morning training today, but he did not stop the battle training of the eight bean pigeons. After arranging this matter, he prepared breakfast.

In addition to making bacon today, another important thing is to bale the hay that was dried a few days ago.

After washing the dishes and kitchen utensils, Rock took Geranium and the four Nidokings and Nidoqueens who were about to collect acorns to the place where they were drying the haystack.

The haystack here has completed drying and its color has basically turned completely yellow.

Rock reached into the haystack and took out a handful of dry brome. After confirming that the moisture content of the grass stems had dropped to a certain level, he waved to the elves.

It's time to start. Let's practice our skills first.

Following Rock's order, the four Nidokings and Nidoqueens immediately combed the haystack and collected the hay inside in roughly the same direction and order.

After the hay bundles were gathered to a certain width, Geranium tied them with vine whips and tightened them. At the same time, Nidoking and Nidoqueen squeezed the hay bundles at both ends.

The dry grass stems are slowly compressed and connected together under the action of forces from different directions, and finally become a cylindrical haystack.

Such a haystack weighs about 40 kilograms. About five such haystacks are enough to feed Rock's current flock for a day.

Based on the haystacks he had dried before, he could probably make more than 800 haystacks. This amount of fodder is completely enough for his current flock to survive the winter.

Of course, Rock will definitely buy some more Meili sheep when he goes to Sunshine Town this time, so the number of sheep will continue to grow.

However, he had reserved a surplus of hay in advance, and together with the acorns collected by Nidoking and Nidoqueen, the food for the sheep during the winter was completely sufficient.

This update is to make up for Saturday. There will be another update tomorrow depending on the situation.
