CHAPTER 1325: CHAPTER 1324: DRIED FRUITS

I can only say, Brother Xiu Yan, you have finally come to this realization.

Early the next morning, Xiu Yan and Casa went out together again, these two Orcs now seem to have fallen in love with adventuring in this unfamiliar jungle.

When Ji Nuan finished washing up and came out of the house, she saw the females of the Bitter Tribe, each with a basket of fruit waiting for her. Upon seeing her, the females quieted down and looked at her expectantly.

Ji Nuan smiled and greeted them, then took out a few clean wooden boards from the cabin.

The females quickly stepped forward to help.

The young females of the Bitter Tribe numbered only eleven in total, and there were still many wooden templates left from building the house, so Ji Nuan gave each one a board.

She herself sat on the wooden floor in front of the house, while the females pulled beast skins to sit on the ground.

For fruit preservation, we need vines and something to cut the fruit into slices, do you have them?

"Shaman, we have lots of vines left intended for weaving baskets."

"My partner is resting today, I can ask him to help me cut the fruit."

"Ah, my partner is resting today too."

In the end, nearly every female’s partner was called over, each cheerfully helping their mate cut the fruit.

They were very skilled, cutting the fruit slices with the right thickness, so much so that Ji Nuan couldn’t help but praise them.

Only Cao was slowly cutting with a stone knife. Ji Nuan squatted beside her: "Today is lucky indeed, everyone’s partners aren’t out hunting, making things easier, but it will be harder tomorrow."

Cao heard her words and smiled shyly: "In the Tribe, when hunting, they don’t take all the females’ partners away. They always leave one to care for them."

They don’t take all of them away...

Leave one...

Only then did Ji Nuan realize that everyone had several partners, so no matter when they made dried fruit, there was never any worry about labor shortages.

With the Orcs’ help, all the fruit was soon sliced into pieces.

"Next, everyone string these slices on the vine, like this."

Ji Nuan picked up a vine and some dried fruit, demonstrating how it was done.

This simple task was easy to learn immediately.

String all the slices and hang them on the racks built by the Orcs: "This way, they can dry out. Once their moisture is gone, they can be preserved for a long time without going bad."

Once more, the females bowed to the ground in thanks to Ji Nuan for her generosity.

After Ji Nuan returned to the cabin, there came a gentle knock at the door.

Putting down the cup in her hand: "Who is it?"

"Shaman Ji Nuan, it’s me, Tuya."

The female voice carried a hint of excitement, speaking softly.

Ji Nuan walked over and opened the door: "Why be so sneaky?"

Tuya giggled, quietly revealing the basket on her arm, filled with delicious-looking fruit: "I just finished cleaning beast skins and heard you taught the females to make fruit that can be preserved for a long time, hehe...

So I want to learn too, please teach me."

Ji Nuan was speechless: "If you want to learn, just come out openly, I thought you wanted to do something shady."

Tuya excitedly placed the basket on the wooden floor outside: "How do we do it, how do we do it?"
