They got souvenirs, and we got funds to support the brave and keep our religion running. Isn’t this a win-win situation? !”

The believer pointed to the "fake" behind him.

Likolina frowned slightly, "Then...wait, win-win? What about the orcs' profit? Aren't these all handmade by the orcs?"

"All the products here are 100% handmade by our followers." The believer said solemnly.

Licorina: "That's still a lie!"

An Yi immediately covered Licorina's mouth and said, "Keep your voice down."

"Wuwuwu?! (What are you doing?!)" Likolina was anxious.

An Yi said expressionlessly, "There may be merchants here who come here specifically to buy these exotic items in large quantities. If they hear this, we may lose a few large orders."

Licorina pulled An Yi's hand off: "Why are you like this too, An Yi?!"

An Yi: "These things just meet the needs of some people, they are not cheating."

The believers were moved and adored: "As expected of you, Sword Hero! You even understand business matters!"

How can it be called cheating if it is just selling goods? !

"Wow..."

Licolina's face turned from sunny to cloudy, and she suddenly realized the dark side of the believers!

122 Starting from level 4, is this true or false? (k)

“The orcs don’t have any means of preserving food, so everything they pick and catch every day will be sold out on the same day, and the rest they can take home to eat.

If you want to taste fresh wild fruits and wild animal meat, it is better to buy them now.”

The believer who had just disguised himself introduced them while taking An Yi and Licolina to visit the market.

“Moreover, the goods sold every day are not fixed, and even the stall owners are not fixed. They bring whatever they pick or catch here to sell.

Have you seen the beastmen wandering around, craning their heads to look around?"

Licorina: "Well, what's wrong?"

There were indeed a lot of orcs walking around, looking at the goods in other people's shops, and then moving on to the next stall to look.

To be honest, it looks a little...sneaky.

The believer continued, “Actually, they are not here to buy anything, and they have no money, but they are just looking for something to sell, and then they go to the forest to find it themselves.

Haven't they stayed in human territory for some time before? So they know that with the money they get from selling things, they can buy a lot of human things.

Hunting is also very troublesome. If they can earn money and buy human meat, it will be much easier for them. "

Licorina nodded approvingly: "Not bad, you earn what you want with your own hands!"

Although humans can give orcs something as gifts to a certain extent, it is impossible for humans to give them large amounts of coins.

Perhaps because they had no culture of using currency before, the orcs quickly accepted this practice.

In comparison, if it was a race that had a monetary culture in the past, it would be more difficult for them to accept that their wealth had turned into a pile of scrap metal because their own currency could not be used, right?

Trading with currency is much easier than simply bartering.

Moreover, bartering is not that convenient in the human world.

For example, if you want to buy exquisite furniture made by humans, you can't carry a lot of meat to exchange it with others, right?

Wandering around the orcs' stalls, they don't sell any handicrafts, just fruits collected from the forest and hunted prey.

When they saw An Yi and Licolina, they also enthusiastically stuffed things into their hands.

Although the human language they knew was limited to quoting prices, they still expressed their gratitude through their actions.

After walking for a while, An Yi and Licolina had a lot of things in their arms.

At the stall, fruits were piled up into small hills and simply stacked on wooden boards on the ground, but each fruit looked fresh and plump, obviously having been carefully selected.

The wild animals are basically killed on the spot. The beastmen are very strong and there is no worry about transportation. You can buy steaming and twitching meat at many stalls.

The animal skins sold are naturally not peeled on site, but are processed by the animal owners at home and brought over.

Animal skins are one of the few handicrafts they process because they are used to make clothes.

But...the clothes they make are usually not sold.

The orcs' craftsmanship is obviously not as good as that of humans. The clothes worn by humans are much more exquisite than those made by themselves.

For example, the "fake orc clothes" sold by a certain believer are far superior to real handmade orc clothes in terms of craftsmanship. They are the kind of clothes that are comfortable for humans to wear.

It is true that piracy is killing the genuine products.

But the orcs don't care about it, they all have simple personalities.

They simply can't make something as advanced as human clothes.

Just like an ordinary porter, no matter how much he envies the doctor's income, he cannot become a doctor without the knowledge and skills. It is better for him to do his own job honestly.

Of course, if orcs want to make clothes, they can learn it, and after learning it, they can make their own clothes and sell them.

For a small business of this size, there is no need to consider "dividing the cake".

Orcs do not rely on making money to survive, but they are not like humans who will starve if they don't make money.

While chewing the wild fruits given by the orcs, Anyi and Likolina boarded the carriage heading to the tribe closest to the market.

"I've been eating all the way." Likolina chewed the wild fruit. "I just came from the cafeteria and I have fruit to eat here again."

"Don't worry, heroes won't get fat." An Yi said calmly while eating.

"It seems that there are fat people among the heroes." Likolina said.

An Yi: "That's because I was fat before I became a hero."

Licorina: "So you can't lose weight, right?"

An Yi: “Probably.”

Licorina: "If you are very fat and can't lose weight, you will be very pitiful, right?"

An Yi: "Maybe it will be more durable."

Licolina: “?”

The carriage entered a forest path again, but there were many orcs walking along the way, and it was not as deserted as at the beginning.

This time the carriage did not travel for too long because we were going to the nearest tribe, so we got off the carriage quickly.

As soon as they got off the car, they saw two rows of orcs standing on the opposite side of the road to greet them.

Maybe they received the message and welcomed them here in advance.

Among them, there was also an old acquaintance I had met before, the orc named Sheri who served as the chief of one of the tribes.

The sturdy orc chief came towards An Yi and the others;

"Welcome two brave men to our tribe!" Sherry said with a smile, standing at the front of the welcoming team.

By the way, his name in the Beast-ear tribe also starts with "Ah" and has an Orcish pronunciation, but the two words "Sheri" are a literal translation, not a phonetic transliteration like "Arya".

The reason for using a free translation is that there are too many orc names that begin with "Ah", and there are too many people with the same name to count.

It’s like a guy named “Agou” in the village can stand out and line up in two rows.

Whether they have the same name or not is determined by the circle they follow to avoid each other.

For example, if dozens of orcs form a circle, there will be no orcs with the same name in the circle.

But in another circle that they don’t come into contact with, there may be other orcs with the same name.

In human terms, it would be closer to call it a "family."

However, their "family" also includes other neighbors, forming a circle with their neighbors, so the word "family" is not accurate.

In fact, the free translation is not the exact meaning, so it can be extended to many names.

"Xeri" sounds like "thank you" and "inside" in Orcish, so it is translated as "Xeri".

If there are words with the same pronunciation, then use homophones or synonyms.

Many orc names have no specific meaning and can only be translated based on the pronunciation.

Just like Arya is called "anya", which is directly translated as "Ameow". Her name is just "Ameow" in Orcish, and it has no special meaning.

Orcs really don't care when it comes to naming, they just call people whatever sounds easy to them.

"Welcome, brave hero!!"

The orcs on both sides of the road shouted in the awkward human language.

They are not only learning human language, but also human etiquette.

According to the orcs' customs, guests would not stand in two rows on the road.

After all, there were no such things as roads in the orc villages before, and people just ran around in the trees.

Looking forward along the road, you will see a large wooden door frame in front of you.

On both sides of the door frame, there are walls built along the forest in a proper manner, which is obviously also learned from anthropology.

As they walked, Sheri asked in Orcish: "My human language is not very good yet. Can you two understand Orcish?"

An Yi nodded: "Yes."

As the number of orcs increases, the number of references to the orc language also increases, and the system can easily help heroes learn the orc language.

What's more, people like An Yi and Likolina, who were exposed to the Orc language for the first time, have already been able to use it fluently.

"We learned from humans and use these walls to prevent wild animals from entering our territory." Sherry introduced, pointing to the simple wooden wall.

They mainly sharpen the wood and then put them together at an angle outward. The sharp shape will make wild beasts or monsters avoid it actively.

It's more like a wooden spike fence than a wall.

Before the two of them could ask, they saw the orcs' houses.

Not in the tree, but on the ground.

It is also a wooden house, but the bottom floor is raised a little and does not touch the ground.

Sheri continued, “Before, houses were built on trees because there were unknown dangers on the ground, but after the walls were built, we built houses on the ground according to what humans taught us.

It’s better to build the house above ground so we can use more floor space for food processing.”

In the past, orcs did not need to make fires on the ground to cook, and houses were just places for them to rest.

But after eating human food, they seemed to be dissatisfied with simply processing the ingredients and began to learn how to cook.

Since they had to cook, it would be inconvenient to stay in the trees, so they began to live on the ground.

No reason, just to build a stove.

Going deeper, Anyi and Likolina saw the cultivated land and poultry raised by the orcs.

"These plant seeds, and these... how do we call them in Orcish? Anyway, the animals we call 'poultry' in Human language, were all given to us by humans.

In the past, we didn’t raise these animals. We just ate whatever we caught.

After being targeted by the goblins, there was no place to keep them." Sheri said with a smile.

An Yi nodded thoughtfully.

He thought that the orcs should not be without animal husbandry culture, but because the demons had been exploiting their living space, the animal husbandry habit had been broken since some unknown generation.

Because the demons are plundering territory every year, there is naturally no land left for livestock raising.

The descendants of the orcs were driven all the way here, and it is difficult for them to continue the habit of raising animals in captivity.

Modern beastmen can't even remember how to pronounce "poultry."

After visiting one tribe, we took a horse carriage to the next tribe.

After walking and stopping for a while, it was noon in a flash. They ate the delicious food made by the orcs, which were the home-cooked dishes they learned from human chefs.

After lunch, we took a carriage and passed through several tribes. We were treated to dinner by the orcs and had barbecue with them around the campfire.

As the night deepened, the two of them leisurely rode in the carriage towards the human city.

Because they were worried about monsters appearing at night, the orcs even sent people to escort the carriage.
