Jiujiu watched through the small window as Sha Qing walked out of her sight, transformed into his beast form, and flew away. She couldn't help but sigh. She laid down on the thick layer of animal skin on her bed and fell into a daze. She was thinking about how to introduce porcelain to the orcs tomorrow, and how to convince them to support her in building a kiln that could make porcelain.
Moreover, the temperature required to make porcelain was very high. Ordinary wood would not work. The wood had to be turned into charcoal before it could be used. How was she going to tell these beastmen that the wood would be more useful after being turned into charcoal?
There were too many things to worry about. Jiujiu slowly fell asleep as she thought about it.
When Sha Qing came back, Jiujiu had already fallen asleep.
Because the window was always open, the moonlight gently shone on Jiujiu's face, making her delicate little face look even more exquisite. That pair of fox eyes that were usually filled with radiance were tightly shut, and her long and curly eyelashes cast a faint shadow under the moonlight, making her delicate little face even more alluring. Her pink lips were like a sweet trap, attracting people to kiss them, and kiss them.
Sha Qing turned around in a sorry state to control his eyes from looking at Jiujiu's little face. He lowered his eyes and took deep breaths to hide his emotional loss.
He didn't know how long he stood with his back to Jiujiu. Only when his body was no longer as tense as before did he relax and lay down on the place where he used to sleep and closed his eyes.
The next morning, Sha Qing once again gathered the orcs in the orc tribe.
Because the magnetic orcs went back yesterday and told Jiujiu how to store the dried meat without spoiling, all the orcs came when Sha Qing gathered them. Moreover, there wasn't a noisy situation like the other day. Most of the orcs were very well-behaved and sat in place, waiting for Jiujiu to speak.
They sat in place for a long time, but they only saw Sha Qing standing there. Jiujiu didn't appear. Just when the orcs were getting impatient and wanted to leave, Jiujiu suddenly came out with a strange pot. Along with her arrival, the pot emitted a tempting fragrance. Many orcs with poor self-control couldn't help but salivate. The orcs sitting in front were deeply affected by the fragrance. One of the orcs loudly asked, "Priestess, what is this?"
Jiujiu thought for a long time last night. In the end, she felt that she should start with the food of the orcs.
Since ancient times, no matter what dynasty, the most inseparable thing was food. And no matter where, no matter when, a foodie was an eternal melody. Therefore, as long as there was delicious food, she wasn't afraid that the orcs wouldn't discuss it.
After all, they were used to eating crude barbecued meat without seasoning. For food like meat soup, it was simply a delicacy. As long as she took out the meat soup and used the food to seduce them, she wasn't afraid that they wouldn't fall for it.
Jiujiu didn't answer anyone's question. Instead, she put the meat soup on the ground and opened the lid.
As the lid was opened, the fragrance of the meat soup that had been simmering for the entire morning instantly spread out. Compared to the barbecued meat that they ate, the meat soup was simply delicious.
Even the more strong-willed orcs couldn't help swallowing mouthfuls of saliva. After all, after eating barbecued meat for so many years, this was the first time they felt that meat could emit such a fragrant aroma. Not many orcs could resist it.
After Jiujiu distributed the meat soup in the pot to the young orcs, she began the topic of the day.
"You all smelled it just now. Are you all curious about what I used to make this food?"
As soon as Jiujiu opened her mouth, some of the more unreserved orcs immediately said, "Priestess, don't keep us in suspense. If you have something to say, just say it. As long as we can make the same food as you, we will do anything."
Because of Jiujiu's method of making jerky, many of the orcs weren't afraid of the upcoming rainy season. Instead, they felt that it was dispensable. After all, when the rainy season came, they only needed to lie comfortably in the cave for the next four months.
It was inevitable that people would want to find something to do when they were bored, and the desire for good food was naturally the most important thing. Therefore, everyone was very curious about how Jiujiu made such delicious food.
Jiujiu knew that the meat soup would be a lot more successful, but she didn't expect it to be so successful. She couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile before she explained, "This is something I found by accident. I turned it into porcelain."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she asked Sha Qing to pass down the pots, bowls, and spoons that she made for the orcs to see.
As those things were passed around, Jiujiu continued, "As you can see, this thing is not afraid of fire or water. Most importantly, it can isolate moisture."
"Yeah, it's really magical." After hearing Jiujiu say that porcelain wasn't afraid of water, an orc scooped some water from the river in disbelief. In the end, he found that the porcelain could perfectly contain the water, and it wouldn't leak or seep out. Although they didn't test whether the porcelain was afraid of fire or not, they were already 70% convinced because the porcelain wasn't afraid of water.
Because they believed, they continued to listen to Jiujiu's explanation.
After seeing that the crowd had quieted down, Jiujiu continued, "Everyone has also discovered that these porcelain aren't afraid of water. A few days ago, an orc came to me and said that they have a lot of cubs. Although they have dried a lot of jerky, there are too many people in the house. Even if they hang the jerky all over the house, it won't be enough to eat. Moreover, if the jerky is placed on the ground, it will absorb moisture and spoil. Even if it is air-dried, it won't return to its original taste. Therefore, they can't continue to dry their jerky. She is very troubled and wants me to help her think of a solution."
As soon as Jiujiu's words came out, many of the orcs below immediately agreed.
Although many of the orcs were not like Huang Sha's family who didn't have enough to eat, who would complain about having more food? Moreover, although many of them knew that the rainy season only lasted for a few months, what if the rainy season was delayed by a day or two?
In the past, when there was no food, no one would think about this problem. But now that there was enough food, they began to think about this problem.
Therefore, when Jiujiu mentioned that they could find utensils that could store food for a long time, they instantly wanted to have such utensils at home. Most importantly, what was the utensils that could make delicious food? They wanted to have one too. When they thought that they could make delicious food at home in the future, they couldn't help but get excited.
