Chapter 257: Chapter 258: Don’t Mind Your Youth
Yuanyuan slapped her chest confidently, "Don’t worry, I’ll find it for you."
Meng Ze, who had been silent, suddenly pulled Yuanyuan’s hand away.
Noticing Su Tang’s gaze, he blushed and gave a shy smile.
Yuanyuan looked at him puzzledly, "What are you doing?"
Meng Ze seriously explained, "Don’t slap your chest like that, you might flatten it..."
Yuanyuan looked down at her chest, gave it a squeeze, and complained, "Nonsense! How could I flatten it?"
Su Tang felt a lump in her chest as though she had been hit by a critical attack of 10,000 damage!
She took Gaiyin’s arm and left without even saying goodbye to them.
Seeing the gloomy expression on Su Tang’s face, Gaiyin couldn’t help but laugh softly.
He reached down and ruffled her hair, murmuring, "It’s okay, Su, it doesn’t bother me that you’re...small..."
Su Tang: ...
So annoyed, but still trying hard to keep smiling. ´◔‸◔`
...
The kiln for making pottery had been dug the day before, and the first batch of pots carefully crafted by the Beastmen had been drying in the shade all afternoon and overnight. They were now carefully moving them into the kiln.
Yadang, who was overseeing this, walked up when he saw Su Tang and Gaiyin, "Why are you here?"
Su Tang once again explained the concept of charcoal and its uses to Yadang.
Then she expressed her intention, "I want to dig two more kilns by this one specifically for processing wood into charcoal. These kilns don’t need to be too ventilated, just leave one opening."
"Before making charcoal, first split the wood into pieces of similar size and shape. Then when the wood is glowing red hot, soak them in cold water for a moment. Afterwards, leave them to dry. The residual heat inside the wood will dry out the water on the charcoal’s surface. That’s when the charcoal is ready."
After listening to Su Tang’s explanation, Yadang nodded thoughtfully, "It sounds quite simple. I’ll arrange for someone to dig the kilns now and in the afternoon when we make charcoal, you can supervise."
"All right, no problem!"
Su Tang was relieved to have Yadang overseeing things there.
She took Gaiyin and went back to the place where the pottery was being made. The female Beastmen were forming clay around a mound of mud, moving in a slow and systematic way.
Not far away, Yan Li and his team were busily expanding the cave, and the pile of rubble they had dug out was already becoming a small hill.
Some of the Beastmen were about to transport the rubble outside the valley. Seeing this, Su Tang hurried over. n𝚘𝚟𝚙𝚞𝚋.𝚌o𝚖
"Are you going to throw away these stones?"
A Beastman nodded, "Yes, Lady, we plan to transport them outside the valley and bury them."
Su Tang looked at the pile of rubble and pondered for a moment, "Could you crush these stones into finer pieces?"
The Beastman smiled, "If we transform into our Beast Body and stomp on them, wouldn’t they become even finer?"
Su Tang laughed along with him.
But she had to admit, his idea was indeed viable.
"Well, then, when you transform into your Beast Body later, stomp on them to break them into finer pieces! We can use them as a foundation when building houses, that way they won’t go to waste."
The Beastman nodded.
Just as he was about to transform, Su Tang called him back.
"Hey, wait. Is Yan Li still digging inside?"
"Yeah, he’s in there!"
"Could you take me to him? I want to discuss something with him!"
Without asking why, the Beastman nodded, "Okay, follow me!"
