I transmigrated into a beast world, hated by everyone, and was eaten by a shameless snake.

Xie Yungui didn't dig too many foundations, but instead dug eighteen foundations so that the old beastmen and their offspring could live together.

They set up a large dormitory, which would make it easy to keep warm. As for the families with females, they would live separately. Xie Yungui would live in one room, and Leng Ran would live in another.

The remaining buildings are public canteens, warehouses, and similar structures.

For now, we'll leave it at that. Next year, when we have more time, we'll rebuild a portion for those who need it. But this is the current plan.

It wasn't that Xie Yungui didn't want everyone to have their own room, but there were only a little over a hundred of them, plus Xie Yungui and his two sons, making a total of 139 people.

Among them, there are seven females, four young females, twenty-four young beastmen, sixty-five old beastmen, and thirty-nine beastmen, twenty-four of whom are disabled.

Therefore, large-scale projects cannot be completed; we can only do our best to ensure that everyone gets through this snow season first.

Leng Ran brought back a sika deer and two pheasants.

Leng Ran's beast form was huge. He rolled up his prey and dragged it back, while A Niu and A Ma carried two pheasants back on their backs.

Looking at the enormous sika deer and its huge antlers, Xie Yungui thought that if this were in modern times, these antlers could be sold for a lot of money.

"How about we have barbecue tonight?" Xie Yungui thought, it was time to let everyone get in touch with a fire.

"Sure, I like it, it's delicious." Leng Ran naturally agreed.

"Okay, I'll go get the salt and seasonings. You take some men and bring back some firewood."

"OK."

"Father, I want to go with you." Leng Yi'an said and was about to follow Leng Ran.

"Be good and wait here. Father will be back soon." Leng Ran looked at his child, his heart softening. This was the child that A Gui had given him. He was looking forward to the child's transformation and whether he would be as beautiful as A Gui.

"Alright then!"

Not long after, Leng Ran returned carrying the wood, then chopped it into pieces, waiting for Xie Yun to come and deal with it.

Xie Yungui put the seasonings and salt into a basket, then carried it down to the base of the big tree.

Xie Yungui took out two sticks and some straw, and under everyone's watchful eyes, began to rub them together with his hands.

Everyone looked on with a puzzled expression, because they didn't know what Xie Yungui was doing or what its purpose was.

After rubbing for a while, a wisp of smoke slowly began to appear.

Xie Yungui quickly took the straw and started blowing on it. Soon, a small flame appeared in front of everyone.

Apart from Leng Ran, all the orcs present immediately scattered in all directions, including the little ones.

"Clan, clan, clan leader, that's divine punishment, it's divine punishment!" someone said in a trembling voice.

"Yes, it is divine punishment, but it also has another name, fire." After Xie Yungui finished speaking, he lit the dry grass, then added firewood and let it burn.

Before long, a large bonfire began to burn. Since there were more than a hundred people in the tribe, the area for roasting meat needed to be spacious enough to do so well.

"Fire symbolizes life and light. You only see that fire can burn everything and leave no life, but it also represents light and warmth. It can be used to cook food, and eating food cooked with it will make you feel better. It can be used to keep warm, provide light, and drive away wild animals. So, fire, if used well, is a beneficial thing; if used poorly, it is a punishment. However, this does not affect its important role."

"What you see is the aftermath of its burning, but in certain specific locations and areas, everything grows even more luxuriantly after it burns. Today, I will use fire to show you one of its effects."

After Xie Yungui finished explaining, he glanced at everyone and then smiled at Leng Ran, saying, "Cut up the prey, and I'll make barbecue for everyone."

"Okay!" Leng Ran nodded, then led his men to begin butchering the prey.

Xie Yungui broke off a few tree branches and then found a few more tree forks to stick in, preparing for the barbecue in advance.

"Agui, the meat is cut up," Leng Ran said.

"Well, grilling the meat will take some time. Go dig a stone pot for me, a big one, we'll use it to stew this bone broth later," Xie Yungui instructed.

"good!"

Then, Xie Yungui cut the meat into small strips, skewered them on sticks, and placed them on a rack to bake.

He pulled the embers out of the fire to roast the meat, so it wouldn't burn from the intense heat.

"Ah Ming, come here and help me flip the meat," Xie Yungui called out.

"Okay." After observing for a long time, Ah Ming realized that the divine punishment had not harmed Xie Yungui, so he was no longer afraid.

Then, A-Feng came over to help, while the other four females were busy taking care of the baby females and couldn't leave.

Xie Yungui walked to the basket, took out the seasonings he had prepared, and began to sprinkle salt and seasonings on it.

"Clan chief, what is this white thing?" Yang Ming asked.

"salt!"

"What? So white?" Yang Ming's eyes were filled with shock.

"Yes, because I processed it. Unprocessed salt doesn't taste good. Yang Ming, since I dare to say that I want to be the clan leader, I naturally have to have some abilities of my own, and this salt is one of them." Xie Yungui finished speaking and smiled gently, without any contempt.

"Chieftain, may I have some to try?" Yang Ming asked expectantly.

"Of course you can, give it a try!"

Then, Yan Ming took out a small pinch, ate a little, and his eyes instantly turned red.

"Yang Ming, how's it going?" the others asked.

"It's delicious, not bitter at all, very salty, and very tasty." After saying that, Yang Ming gestured for everyone to try it.

Everyone took a small pinch and tried it, and they all had the same reaction as Yang Ming.

Xie Yungui watched the orcs dancing with joy, but said nothing, because sometimes, silence speaks louder than words.

Xie Yungui took the roasted meat down and placed it on a clean large leaf, then continued roasting it. At this moment, Leng Ran returned carrying a huge stone pot.

At this moment, Xie Yungui finally witnessed the power of the orcs.

Then, someone brought back several buckets of clean water to wash the stone pot clean. Then, they brought stones to set up the stone pot and placed it on top. Leng Ran started a fire as Xie Yungui had taught him.

Xie Yungui took a few pieces of wild ginger, washed them clean, and put them into the stone pot. He then broke the bones into suitable sizes and put them into the stone pot to simmer slowly.
