Chapter 218 The New Year is almost here!
Inside the cave, there were many superhuman beastmen, bustling about and creating quite a lively scene!
However, not long after, accompanied by a deep rumble, the heavy and sturdy cave door was slowly pushed open.
Tu, Yuan, Da, and others took the lead, carefully carrying the crystal-clear, clean snow outside the gate back into the cave.
This snow is a precious water source for the tribe, and the water tanks must be kept full every day to meet the daily needs of the tribe.
Immediately afterwards, they began digging tunnels.
This tunnel was not used for any other purpose, but was specifically provided for people to travel around.
After all, hygiene is of utmost importance when in a relatively enclosed space like a cave.
Since Ruan Mianmian arrived here, she has established a rule: whether they are older or younger beastmen, they must all go outside the cave to relieve themselves – that is, to use the toilet.
The reason is simple: if people are allowed to defecate freely in the cave, no matter how spacious or huge the cave is, the sealed environment will make the smell extremely unpleasant.
So the tribespeople followed suit and went out of the cave in order.
Despite the freezing cold outside, some orcs actually have a particular fondness for this kind of weather.
For example, beastmen like Snow Wolf Lin and the powerful Black Bear Meng, although they are naturally afraid of the cold, because they are the kind of beastmen with thick fur, they actually have a bit of a love for cold climates in their bones from a genetic point of view.
Ruan Mianmian stared intently at the map in front of her, carefully searching for any possible traces of nearby tribes and orcs.
After a careful inspection, she discovered that there was not a trace of any orcs within a radius of fifty miles centered on their tribe.
This discovery relieved her, and she thought to herself, "It seems we won't be bothered by too many orcs this winter!"
Just as Ruan Mianmian was about to exit the map page with satisfaction, she inadvertently glanced up at the time display.
This realization was quite alarming; she suddenly understood that it was already the twelfth lunar month.
Looking closer, I realized that today is already the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month!
For every native Chinese, the Lunar New Year is an extremely important and ritualistic event, and Ruan Mianmian is no exception.
Now that she knew the New Year was approaching, Ruan Mianmian immediately made up her mind to lead her clansmen to have a lively and happy New Year.
With that in mind, she acted without hesitation, starting to think about all the items and matters that needed to be prepared for the New Year.
The first thing that comes to mind is to go to the exchange platform to see if there are any good items worth exchanging.
However, when the system noticed Ruan Mianmian's actions, it couldn't suppress its urge to complain and said, "Host! My system shop has everything you could want. There's almost nothing you can't buy. Why bother going through all this trouble to go to the exchange platform?"
Ruan Mianmian logged into the mysterious exchange platform with practiced ease, casually glancing at the constantly scrolling information on the page, muttering to the system indifferently, "Hmm, this one's good, that one's fine too... I'm willing anyway!"
Just then, a noisy busy signal suddenly came to her mind, like countless bees buzzing in her ears.
Immediately afterwards, the system that had been communicating and interacting with her disappeared without warning!
Ruan Mianmian was taken aback at first, but quickly came to her senses and a sly smile appeared on her lips.
She wouldn't let this little accident stop her, so she continued flipping through the pages as if nothing had happened.
It's important to know that the number of orcs in their tribe is increasing daily.
Faced with such a huge population pressure, how can we not stockpile more food?
Therefore, the most important thing for Ruan Mianmian right now is to collect as many food resources as possible.
Especially recently, the weather has become increasingly cold, and ice and snow resources have become exceptionally abundant.
Something that can be obtained at almost no cost should certainly be made good use of!
As the saying goes, "If it's free, why not trade it?"
With this in mind, Ruan Mianmian quickly took action and began to proactively contact her old customers with whom she had previously cooperated.
After some bargaining, she successfully traded the readily available snow and ice for a large amount of hay, camel meat, cactus fruit, and other precious foods.
Looking at her bountiful harvest, Ruan Mianmian nodded in satisfaction, secretly planning how to further expand her trading results.
After a short rest, she refocused her attention on the trading platform in front of her.
All I could see on the screen were various tempting transaction messages flashing by.
"A huge snack gift pack! Don't miss it! You can exchange it for guns and ammunition!"
"A super practical storage space, and a magical little world waiting for you to explore, which can be easily obtained by exchanging various rare magical artifacts, spirit stones, or immortal herbs!"
"Aircraft, treatment pods, laser guns... Energy stone exchange is your best choice."
"Medicines, all kinds of medicines, custom orders welcome. Contact me for details!"
"Pearls, gold jewelry, diamonds, rubies... a considerable quantity, with discounts for bulk orders! Food must be exchanged."
These dazzling treasures overwhelmed Ruan Mianmian, and at the same time, they made her curious heart even more restless.
