Chapter 322: Chapter 323 Untitled
After a round of wandering and some casual conversation, almost an hour had passed.
Because the Tribe was in the midst of construction, many places needed people to take care of them, so Su Tang sent Gaiyin alone to supervise the work.
Gaiyin seemed very reluctant, but in the end, he left unhappily only after Su Tang promised to make him delicious food at noon and gave him a kiss.
Walking with Gaiyin to the Rice Pod plantation, as far as the eye could see, Su Tang didn’t know how many acres it was, just that it was a lot.
Plants as tall as her were covered in Rice Pods that were about fifteen centimeters in diameter. The purple Rice Pods sprinkled among the green plants looked pretty good.
Tian Ding was watering these Rice Pods. Seeing Su Tang’s figure, he hurried over.
"Lady Saint."
Su Tang waved her hand, "Just do what you need to do, don’t mind me. I’m here to pick a few Rice Pods."
Tian Ding breathed a sigh of relief and went back to watering the Rice Pods.
Su Tang didn’t venture deep into the fields, but along with Gaiyin, they searched for seemingly ripe Rice Pods around the periphery.
A Rice Pod was quite large, the larger ones weighed about a quarter of a kilogram, the smaller ones were not much less. Su Tang felt that she wouldn’t be able to finish even the rice in a single Rice Pod.
Gaiyin made a face and curled his mouth, "Sister-in-law, what is this? It doesn’t look tasty."
While picking Rice Pods, Su Tang comforted Gaiyin, "This is called rice, it’s great. It can be used to make porridge or cooked as rice, the taste is fantastic. And different cooking methods offer different tastes. Wait till I make you some for lunch, you will want more once you taste it!"
On hearing this, Gaiyin looked forward excitedly.
After strolling for a while and picking about a dozen Rice Pods, Su Tang felt heavy and put all of them in her Space.
Judging by the current situation, after this watering, the Rice Pods should nearly all be ripe, when it will be the Collection Team’s turn.
Before leaving, Su Tang particularly added more than a dozen drops of concentrated liquid to the water in the water tank that was full, instructing Tian Ding again.
"One more watering should be just about right for the Rice Pods. Then fetch some more water for the Soft Fruit Trees as well. Remember, this water cannot be drunk, it can only be used to irrigate crops. In the afternoon, I’ll arrange for people to come and collect the Rice Pods."
Tian Ding nodded promptly, "Yes, Lady Saint!"
After leaving the farm, Su Tang took Gaiyin straight to old Nike’s Cave.
She collected many condiments from him, causing old Nike to feel heartache for a while.
Afterward, she also cut some meat and picked some wild fruits and vegetables, then hurriedly went back to the small cave with Gaiyin.
Eh-Ah was originally lying listlessly at the cave entrance, but upon seeing their figures, he became excited and started to spin in circles!
Seeing Eh-Ah, Gaiyin also got excited. They both started to romp and roll on the lawn outside the cave.
Su Tang took a breath. Seeing that the Tyrant Flower Cub was still asleep, she took the ingredients out of her Space and began to prepare them.
The fruits and meat were all pre-cleaned and very clean, so all she had to do was to extract the rice from the Rice Pods and give it a slight rinse.
There was a temporary stove set up outside the small cave, which was very convenient to use. However, when it came to making a fire, Su Tang was in a bit of a dilemma.
Usually, it was Gaiyin who did this, and she really couldn’t use things like flint. After struggling for a long time, she couldn’t get a fire going.
