Chapter 203 Striking Under the Stars
"Internal organs!"
"So many internal organs!"
"Is this a liver?"
"Such soft offal!"
The people ate their meals while shouting with delight, as if they were digging for treasure.
Things were rather uneventful with the other tribespeople.
"Wow, more meat."
"I'm also having trouble pooping."
"really."
Greedy Meat nodded.
He doesn't dare to eat a second bowl now.
Although eating more meat can give them energy, it can also make them have trouble defecating.
I was just too busy the past couple of days to think about this.
Today they had a bit more free time, and when the tribespeople who had returned mentioned this matter, they immediately realized the problem.
Zi Yi looked down at the meat in the bowl, then at Zi An who was shoving the bowl dry, and then at Li Mosi.
Li Mosi naturally realized the problem as well.
He glanced at his two disciples.
"We'll take some wheat out of the warehouse tonight, and tomorrow's food will be half meat and half wheat. We'll have a few of the villagers take the oxen to the mill to grind it up a bit."
Although he has not yet learned in detail about the composition of the various livestock in the territory.
However, according to the map, each estate had more than sixty cows and more than four hundred sheep.
There are always oxen to work.
"Yes, Master."
Ziyi nodded.
He's even starting to miss the smell of wheat.
"Gurgle—burp!"
Zi'an swallowed the broth in his mouth and suddenly burped.
"It's fine, as long as I'm full."
The saint looked down at the six empty bowls in front of her.
"With your appetite, you're lucky if you can even get full."
"Um."
Zi'an glanced at her but didn't say anything.
She picked up the next bowl of soup.
Are they enjoying their food?
Li Mosi didn't understand, but Zi'an was definitely still growing.
He spoke to Zi Yi.
"We seem to have forgotten one thing, which is to process the internal organs and meat separately."
Ziyi nodded.
"Yeah, right."
He had just remembered this.
It doesn't matter anymore in the tribe.
However, for the people, offal is a special food that can lift the curse, making it a good reward for them.
They should be handled separately.
Li Mosi began to adjust the next steps.
"The tribesmen will first roast the internal organs until they are dry, while the leaders will just roast the meat."
"You shouldn't have fed these people their internal organs."
Upon hearing this, Li Mosi looked up at Hagi Saint.
She seems a bit down right now?
Zi Yi also looked over.
Then the three of them looked at each other, and Hagi didn't say anything more.
Wow, today is the melancholy Haki Saint.
Li Mosi picked up the bowl and started eating.
"belch--"
Zian suddenly burped and patted his belly.
"I'm stuffed."
Seeing that she finally stopped after eating ten bowls, Li Mo thought about what had just happened.
"Gurgle."
He swallowed the food in his mouth and asked Zi'an.
"Zi'an, you and Ziyi decided on the team division method together, so why didn't you want to go up and speak to the people just now?"
"This is so troublesome."
Zi'an shook his head.
"Just thinking about it gives me a headache, and talking to my people about it gives me an even bigger headache. Anyway, as long as they're doing well and are obedient, that's enough."
She wasn't interested in leading a team of hundreds of people.
She could manage watching a few dozen people work in a tribe, but with so many people, she couldn't keep an eye on them all.
Looking at her like that, Li Mosi felt like she was seeing a child playing with friends during the holidays suddenly told by their parents that they had been enrolled in a tutoring program called Miaomiao.
It was an instinctive resistance.
"We can't be afraid of trouble, and once it's all done, it won't be so troublesome anymore."
Li Mosi took a bite of meat and continued speaking.
"If managers are afraid of trouble and delegate their own tasks to others, they will inevitably cause suffering to those they manage. Ultimately, they themselves will not be happy either."
How many people have their family fortunes emptied by their subordinates when they try to leave their families to their own devices?
Li Mosi didn't know.
Anyway, many lazy emperors in history have met their demise in this way.
But he chose a more relevant example for the present moment.
"Think about it, if a blacksmith's child doesn't learn the trade and instead hands over the craft of iron smelting or tool making to others, is he still a blacksmith? Will he still receive the treatment a blacksmith deserves?"
"cannot."
Zi'an shook his head.
"Then next time there's a task involving managing hundreds of people... shall I give it a try?"
She actually understood the reasoning behind it.
But it's clear that Ziyi is capable of doing this kind of thing.
She didn't want to be so tired.
"The Lazy Bear-Beastman."
Hagi suddenly began attacking Koyasu.
"No wonder people say you need to hibernate, just like brown bears."
"I don't need to hibernate!"
Zi'an glanced at Li Mosi and Zi Yi, who were holding bowls, and then at the untouched meat soup in front of Haji Saint.
She picked up the soup with one hand and pinched Hagi Saint's face with the other, then poured it directly into the saintess's mouth!
"Don't give me this soup made from rotten meat! Oh my god! Glug glug!"
Seeing Hagi Saint's struggling yet unable to break free, Li Mosi seemed to understand why she was depressed.
But I've had soup made with this kind of stale meat a few times before.
I don't think I've ever seen her react like that.
Could it be because she saw the ingredients today?
After dinner, it wasn't completely dark yet.
Zi Yi quickly ordered the people to start fires and get to work, and also sent his clansmen to supervise and teach them how to do things.
After dinner, it wasn't completely dark yet.
Zi Yi quickly ordered the people to start fires and get to work, and also sent his clansmen to supervise and teach them how to do things.
There were nine teams in total, and each team was accompanied by six non-warrior goblins wielding spears and six new members of their race.
Although goblins don't speak the same language, they can communicate through actions.
The main courtyard was bustling with activity.
The firewood stored in the main house of Valos was so plentiful that it could be nailed together enough to build another main house.
Li Mosi didn't care about this little bit of consumption at all.
"It's hard! Does that mean it's healed?"
"No, it's still soft inside. Look, this piece is baked hard inside and out."
"If I can get one piece of meat for every ten pieces I grill, I'm not going to sleep tonight!"
"The adults should really tell you to bring your own firewood, kid."
The people worked with great enthusiasm, as if they were having a bonfire party.
Li Mosi enjoyed the atmosphere.
Relaxed, harmonious, and pleasant.
Unfortunately, they have other things to do tonight.
Today, the old man not only brought all the fresh horse meat, but also the corpse of a troll.
He had already decided what to do with the body when he saw it.
Li Mosi looked at Zi Yi.
"Ziyi, tell the clansmen in charge of supervision to stay and keep watch. The rest of you, rest first. We'll set off at midnight and take over Baron Stern's territory tonight."
"Zi'an, take off the extra armor and just wear Baron Stern's breastplate and any pair of hand armor."
"Yes, Master."
Zi'an began to put his armor back on.
Zi Yi ran off to give orders to his people.
Upon hearing that they were going to fight the nobles again, everyone immediately went back to eating, drinking, and sleeping as usual, trying their best to adjust their state.
Ziwan walked to a spot not far in front of Li Moss.
"My lord, please allow me to show you the way."
Li Moss asked, "Have you been to Baron Stern's Domain recently?"
"no."
Ziwang shook his head.
"The last time I went to Baron Stern's territory was several years ago, so those people probably don't recognize me. But I recognize the faces of those old guys; they shouldn't have changed much."
"Alright, then you can follow me."
"Thank you, sir!"
