Chapter 123 Ginseng Chicken Soup
Because of the success of making jerky, Ruan Mianmian bought some apples from the system store.
One is to provide everyone with some fruit, and the other is to make some dried apples to see if that works. If it does, their tribe will store a large amount of food next autumn.
As everyone ate the dried apples they had made, they all lamented the loss of the apples that had fallen from the woods earlier.
Previously, they didn't know how to store fruit, and they could only watch helplessly as it rotted on the ground. Now that their leader has invented a way to make dried fruit, they will be able to produce large quantities of food next year. Thinking of this, everyone felt a surge of excitement.
Ruan Mianmian rummaged through her storage space. She had stored some food in the forest before, but her storage space was too messy and she couldn't find it right away.
"Sigh, when will I be able to take out whatever I want? This constant searching, when will it ever end?" Ruan Mianmian sighed inwardly, but her hands kept scrolling through the screen.
"Host, have you forgotten that you still have a huge pile of ginseng in your storage space? Upgrade that for me! Once it's upgraded, I can provide whatever effects you want."
Hearing Ruan Mianmian's mutterings, the system couldn't help but speak up.
"Ah! That's right, I still have ginseng. Sen and the others must have been seriously injured. I'll make them some ginseng chicken soup to help them recover."
After answering to herself, Ruan Mianmian continued searching through her online space.
"Host, host, did you hear me? Don't ignore me!"
The system kept talking in her mind, but Ruan Mianmian mischievously ignored it.
"Host, don't pretend you didn't hear me! My upgrade is a good thing for you too! Just tell me your requests, and I'll try my best to optimize it in the direction you want. But don't stay silent!"
The system became a little anxious when it saw that Ruan Mianmian hadn't replied for a long time.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mianmian finally responded to the system, "Okay, okay!" "I've thought it over. If you can organize and categorize my storage space so that I can quickly find what I want, I'll agree to upgrade you."
The system was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately agreed.
A moment later, Ruan Mianmian opened the storage space again and saw that the items inside were neatly categorized and arranged, with each category clearly labeled.
"Wow! This is amazing!" Ruan Mianmian excitedly traversed the space and quickly found the ginseng she needed.
"Alright, system, I'll keep ten ginseng roots for you. You can absorb the rest! I look forward to your new creations after the upgrade."
After she finished speaking, she happily took the ginseng and went to find Sen, intending to stew a delicious pot of ginseng chicken soup for him.
Seeing her excited expression, the system thought to itself: This host is so easily satisfied! But that's fine, I should treat her well in the future.
After saying that, he retrieved the ginseng from Ruan Mianmian's storage space and quietly went to upgrade himself.
When everyone saw their leader happily carrying an unfamiliar object toward the stove, they knew he was about to cook something delicious again.
They all forgot everything else and hurriedly gathered around the stove, waiting to see if they could be the first to eat.
Ruan Mianmian walked over and looked at them squatting there in a huge group, and said with a smile, "I was indeed going to make something to eat, but this food is for the wounded."
After saying that, she waved the ginseng in her hand and said, "This thing in my hand is called ginseng, and it is a precious medicinal herb. Ginseng has the effects of replenishing qi, nourishing blood, and calming the mind. For example, you can take this herb if you have a serious injury, and it is very good for your health."
When everyone heard that this ginseng was such a valuable thing, they all asked to see it. The forest is so vast, who knows where it might be found.
Seeing how curious they were, Ruan Mianmian handed the ginseng to them so they could take a look.
The system has already been upgraded, and it cannot be used during the upgrade process. Otherwise, Ruan Mianmian would have loved to buy a seedling from the store and let them identify it.
After receiving it, everyone examined it carefully and smelled it repeatedly, indicating that they would remember it and bring it back to Ruan Mianmian if they encountered it while traveling in the future.
Ruan Mianmian smiled happily after hearing this.
“This ginseng can be eaten in winter; it’s a very nourishing medicinal herb. We have six campfires, and each campfire has a pot of chicken soup being cooked over it. Everyone can drink some to replenish their energy.”
Upon hearing this, everyone sprang into action. Some went to prepare the chicken, some went to fetch water, and others were responsible for cooking the stone pot.
Before long, the six pots of steaming water were boiling.
Ruan Mianmian cut the ginseng into small pieces and put them into each pot of soup to stew with the chicken. Before long, a fragrant aroma wafted through the cave.
"Ah, we are so happy! Since joining the tribe, we have been eating and sleeping well every day, and we don't have to suffer from the cold. I want to follow the goddess for the rest of my life!"
A small female guarding nearby exclaimed in admiration as she smelled the fragrance in the air.
Her sentiments are the sentiments of everyone!
The wolf-like orcs are known for their fighting prowess; they value freedom and enjoy an unrestrained life.
However, since joining Dongfang Buluo, they have developed a deep sense of belonging and have all made up their minds to be loyal to Ruan Mianmian.
Not to mention the little beastmen in the original tribe, who watched the tribe improve step by step, and felt not only endless gratitude towards Ruan Mianmian, but also great admiration and respect.
If Ruan Mianmian knew that the little beastmen in her tribe all loved and cared for her like a mother, I wonder what she would think, haha.
A beastman, about 1.7 to 1.8 meters tall, called her "mother."
Ugh, just thinking about it makes me shudder!
Time flies, and the chicken soup was ready in the blink of an eye.
Everyone eagerly savored this rare delicacy; the warm chicken soup and precious ginseng nourished their body and mind.
On this cold winter day, everyone sat around the campfire, enjoying the satisfaction and happiness brought by the delicious food.
