Chapter 283: Ran Away Again?
Not long after, Lin Baiyan put down the abacus, rubbed his slightly sore wrists, and looked at the two people opposite him. "How was it?"
Fox Zhen had already finished calculating. He handed the animal hide in his hand to Lin Baiyan for inspection, saying, "High Priest, please take a look."
Lin Baiyan looked through the table item by item, and the increase or decrease in centimeters was clear at a glance.
Yes, to make things easier, Lin Baiyan also made the changes in personal work points into a table, so that any mistakes could be seen immediately.
Not long after, Maoyu also put down her abacus, handed her results to Huzhen, and then reached out to take the animal skin book in front of Lin Baiyan.
After the first round of calculations, the three of them would take turns checking each other's results, which Lin Baiyan had arranged beforehand.
After an unknown amount of time, the three of them finally finished reviewing the accounts. They had originally planned to review the work points once a week, but after a few times, they found that the amount of work was huge and reviewing it once a week was not realistic.
Lin Baiyan changed the system to inventory once a month. Most of their current supplies still belong to the storage cave. When the beastmen want something, they can go to the storage cave and use work points to offset it.
Looking at the piles of thin animal hides, the three men sat back in their chairs and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally finished."
Hu Zhen stretched and said, "Thankfully, there were no problems." If there had been any discrepancies, they would have had to re-check the accounts, which would have been even more troublesome.
"It's such a waste of so many animal hides." They need a lot of animal hides to keep accounts, but they are reluctant to use the good ones, and most of them are broken and tattered. But now everyone is struggling, so where can they find so many broken animal hides?
They didn't have enough animal hides, so they had to use the best ones to make do.
Lin Baiyan also felt a little sorry for them. To be honest, those tattered animal hides could be slightly modified to make animal hide clothing or shoes.
It seems that papermaking should be put on the agenda.
After leaving the activity room, Lin Baiyan saw Langmu leading Huyue Huduo and a string of his underlings, excitedly heading out of the tribe.
Even Lin Baiyan didn't notice them being right next to him.
He grabbed the wolfwood fur coat by the back of the collar, looked down at the little one in front of him, and asked, "What did the priest brother tell you?"
When Langmu saw Lin Baiyan, he instinctively shrank back, but then, as if remembering something, he excitedly said, "Brother City Lord said we're fishing today! We can go watch together!"
Lin Baiyan looked at him with some suspicion, "Really?"
Why didn't Lang Cang mention this to him?
It wasn't that Lin Baiyan didn't trust the cubs; these little cubs were just too mischievous.
Wolfwood nodded vigorously, and the little cubs beside him chimed in, "Grandpa Rabbit Forest agreed!"
"Yes, High Priest Brother, Maoxia and the others are going later too!"
Just as we were talking, Cat Summer and several other sub-orcs hurriedly ran over from behind, with Wolf Cloud following at the very back.
After seeing the wolf cloud, Lin Baiyan believed it to be true. If the wolf cloud had arrived, then it must be real.
Lin Baiyan loosened the wolfwood's animal skin coat, reached out and ruffled his little head, "Where are we going to catch fish?"
Wolf Cloud had already arrived in front of Lin Baiyan. "It's Donghe. Donghe is now frozen over."
"Last year we retrieved a lot of food from the ice cave, and the city lord thought there would be just as much this year, so he sent someone to check on the ice of the East River. The ice layer has already formed quite thick."
It's already the middle of the fourteenth month, and there have been several heavy snowfalls. The ice on the Donghe River should indeed be frozen over by now.
At this time last year, they were still making bricks and tiles. Unexpectedly, this year they not only have many new members, but they are also building a city.
For a moment, Lin Baiyan was also filled with emotion.
"Let's go, I've finished settling the accounts, and I'll join you guys for some fun." Lin Baiyan also showed some interest.
If Lang Cang hadn't mentioned it, he would have completely forgotten that there was a group of big fish on the banks of the East River.
Although they don't lack food now, they'd rather not refuse food that's offered to them.
Lin Baiyan looked around and grabbed a Silver Tiger Clan beastman. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Hu Can.
Hu Can had heard that Hu Duo had secretly slipped away to come and catch the cubs, but who knew that Hu Duo really didn't intend to cause any trouble this time.
After Hu Can felt relieved, he hurriedly walked into the tribe, as he still needed to check on the other cubs.
Lin Baiyan smiled and said, "Please go back and inform Yang Ye that the city lord is fishing with his warriors by the East River today. Tell him to call a few orcs and bring tools and nets."
Hu Can nodded quickly, "No problem."
After giving his instructions, Lin Baiyan bent down, picked up Little Lynx, stroked its fur, and led the group of cubs towards the East River.
Upon arriving at the tribe's gate, they indeed saw a group of male beastmen sent by Wolf Cang to pick up the cubs.
With so many cubs, Lang Cang couldn't possibly let them go to Donghe alone.
Lin Baiyan nodded in satisfaction after seeing it.
Wolf Cang remembered to send someone to pick up the child, good job!
After receiving his orders, Hu Can returned to the tribe and found Yang Ye in the school.
Yangye is the captain of the gathering team. During the snowy season, the team has less to do, so he spends most of his time teaching everyone to read in the school.
A while ago, Yang Ye gave birth to a tiger cub. Hu Qiu held the newborn, wrinkled cub and almost cried. Afterwards, he told everyone how cute his little tiger cub was.
He spends all his free time playing with his child, because Ma Yuan said that this can increase his bond with his child.
Huqiu was completely convinced and wanted to take care of everything for the cub.
Oh, by the way, this is a male orc cub named Tiger Sky.
After learning some characters, Huqiu racked his brains to name his cubs: Eagle Soaring in the Sky, Fish Swimming in the Shallows.
Lin Baiyan once said that this means being free to pursue one's ambitions.
This is the time when the tiger cubs have just been born, and the cubs are most vulnerable at this time. If it were other tribes of orcs, they would want to wrap the cubs up tightly and hide them in their homes.
However, the beastmen of the Azure Flame Tribe are different. They have too many things to do every day, especially Yang Ye, who is the company commander of the second company and must set an example.
After some discussion, Yang Ye decided to hand over some supplies to the cub's cave and send the cub there. Since most of the cubs in the tribe were playing there, he wasn't worried about the cub getting lost.
Although Huqiu had some concerns, he was very supportive of his partner's career.
Freed from the constraints of the cubs, Yang Ye immediately resumed his work.
After Hu Can finished speaking, Yang Ye quickly picked out a few orcs from the gathering team and hurriedly headed towards the East River with their tools.
