Chapter 535: Chapter 536: Preparations before Departure
This pregnant little female mermaid was the life root of the Mermaid Clan, and Hai Qin cared deeply about her.
So he cautiously asked, "What should we do then?"
Su Tang thought for a while and said, "Relax, didn’t Tao Yuan arrange the most leisurely work for pregnant females? You could let her come to work with Tao Yuan’s female mermaids."
Hai Qin instinctively objected, he hurriedly said, "How can that be done?! What if something happens to her? She is carrying a cub, how can she still work?"
Su Tang didn’t say anything and just looked at Hai Qin with an amused smile.
Unfortunately, Hai Qin truly believed he was in the right, looking quite righteous as he did so.
Hanna couldn’t stand it and pushed Hai Qin, glaring at him, "Stop talking and just listen to Su Tang’s arrangements. If it wasn’t for her suggesting we move to the surface, would Lili be pregnant now?"
Hai Qin wanted to retort, but Hanna twisted the soft flesh around his waist and turned it fiercely twice.
Hai Qin: "..."
Hanna smiled at Su Tang, "Don’t mind him. Let’s do as you said. I’ll send Lili over when I go back later."
Su Tang also returned the faint smile, "I can understand your concerns, but I arranged this for the sake of Lili and her cub. The invisible pressure is the most deadly. It can break down a female if it persists and when that happens, not to mention the cub, the female might not even be able to survive."
Hanna quickly nodded, though she didn’t fully understand, she knew that the Holy Woman of Taoyuan is harmless and wouldn’t have bothered to help them otherwise.
In the end, despite Hai Qin and the rest of the Mermaid Clan’s reluctance, Hanna, against everyone’s advice, sent the pregnant mermaid Lili to Tao Yuan’s drying area.
The drying area was mainly responsible for drying some of the Tribe’s supplies, be it meat, staple food, or herbal medicine, all needed drying.
The pregnant females in the tribe were all assigned here. They just needed to flip the items placed on the racks for drying. The work was easy and not tiring. It also relaxed the females’ mood.
Lili, who was originally under the pressure of the whole Mermaid Tribe, was almost depressed. Her complexion visibly improved after being at the drying area for two days and she ate more than before, which finally silenced the Mermaid Clan members who had been objecting.
...
Everything gradually got back on track, with spring returning to the earth, it was a good season for all things to revive. The land that had slept through a cold season was also slowly waking up.
Rice pod, corn, and some vegetables had all been sown, the Soft Fruit Trees had also started to sprout, with changes happening every day.
The production of indispensable daily necessities like pottery began as well, with kneading and firing. With the experience, almost every batch from the kiln was in perfect condition.
After the consumption of a winter season, the salt was almost all consumed. Accordingly, a small team was quickly sent to the seaside to boil the salt.
At the same time, the grand construction project of the Tribe couldn’t be delayed. Each beastman of the City Defense Team had a blueprint of the tribe’s design in their minds.
Su Tang sent the blueprint to Wen Jue Ye Qiao again. With them helping to supervise the construction, she could rest assured even if she was away.
She arranged all things in the tribe in an orderly manner, like a small ecosystem, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing it operate fully. She began to make plans for her trip to the Ten Thousands Beast Country. The participants of the journey had been decided long before.
Entering the Wood Immortal Mansion had a restriction...
