Chapter 481 Taking Root
Although this was entirely new territory, they had made ample preparations beforehand, and the winter was exceptionally comfortable. The caves were warm and cozy, as if spring had arrived early, and the tribespeople had plenty of food. Nothing could have been more satisfying.
However, the only slight regret is that every year at this time, Ruan Mianmian would lead her people to the snow-capped mountains for an important exchange with the snow beasts. This was not only a tradition, but also a crucial way for the people to obtain precious resources.
Unfortunately, they encountered an unprecedented and severe flood this year, forcing the entire tribe to migrate urgently. Now, they know nothing about the situation with the snow beasts, and they can't help but feel worried.
With that in mind, Ruan Mianmian decided to open the system map to check the location of the snow mountain.
The map showed that they were currently quite far from the snow-capped mountains. Worse still, due to tectonic activity, the tectonic plates of the orcish continent had undergone tremendous changes.
Much of the original land is now submerged by the ocean, making the roads to the snow-capped mountains extremely difficult, and almost impossible to reach them on foot as before.
One orc suggested using a cruise ship, a good idea indeed, but reality quickly dampened their enthusiasm. It was winter, and the rivers and lakes were covered in thick ice and snow, making it impossible for ships to navigate in such conditions.
However, after experiencing that terrible disaster, Ruan Mianmian developed a deep sense of weariness towards winter.
She felt that all she wanted to do this winter was stay in the cave and not go anywhere else; she just wanted to rest quietly.
However, if Ruan Mianmian really wanted to go somewhere, probably nothing could hold her back.
Not to mention that there are many eagle-clan orcs and flying orcs in the tribe who can fly there, her system shop alone is enough to solve many problems.
She was perfectly capable of buying an icebreaker, but she was simply too lazy to bother with it.
And so, the entire tribe spent a relatively peaceful and tranquil winter in the cave.
As spring arrived the following year and the sun gradually warmed, the people of the tribe began to get busy. They decided to cultivate a wide variety of edible crops and herbs on a large scale in this vast mountain range.
These crops not only provide food, but can also be used for medical and other purposes.
In addition to crops, the tribe also plans to plant some fruit trees and nut trees. These trees will not only provide delicious fruit, but also bring more resources to the tribe.
However, realizing such a large-scale planting plan is not easy.
The flying orcs in the tribe became the busiest group. Ruan Mianmian arranged for each flying orc to lead a member of their tribe out to find suitable tree resources for planting. They flew through the mountains, carefully searching for healthy trees that were suitable for growth.
Every day, the figures of orcs can be seen coming and going in the mountains, carrying out this important task in a busy and orderly manner.
The flying orcs used their advantage to quickly bring the found trees back to the tribe, while the other tribesmen were responsible for properly planting these trees on the prepared land.
After months of hard work, the mountains finally presented a delightful sight as summer arrived.
The once barren land is now covered with lush trees. These trees are growing strong and healthy, as if telling the story of the tribe's hard work.
Furthermore, edible foods such as potatoes and sweet potatoes are also being grown in large quantities. These crops are thriving in the fertile soil, indicating a bountiful harvest to come.
To make the land more fertile, Ruan Mianmian also purchased a large amount of fertilizer and other growth-promoting items from the system shop. The use of these items made the land more fertile, and all kinds of plants were able to grow vigorously.
The entire tribe is proud and satisfied with this achievement. Their efforts have brought about a vibrant scene and more hope and security for their future lives.
