Chapter 112: Naifus Garden (2)

Ye Kai approached immediately and patted his head gently to calm him down. He could see this habit very quickly. Stroking the orcs' heads seemed to calm them down miraculously.

Because this habit is often cultivated from childhood, he felt that there must be a reason for it.

"Lelem and Malte, it's not enough to just eat Nefs."

"Can't I eat it?" Malte immediately burst into tears.

“No, no.”

"What's the meaning?"

"We should plant and cultivate the seedlings we brought back today, so that this place will become the forest of Naifs, right?"

"yes."

“Because there are no monsters, it’s also a good place for cats.”

She was thinking about something deeper than Leleme. This was part of her intuition. Emotional people always hit the mark. Although she didn't realize it, her words deeply touched Ye Kai.

“Maybe. Besides, this Nefs Forest will produce a lot of Nefs fruits. Maybe there will be more than we can eat.”

“Although there may be some trees that have died due to some disease, I think it is still good to keep a certain number.”

This was a long-term consideration. He knew that it was dangerous to act without some insurance policy.

“No, we should increase them as much as possible. Because the nephrite trees growing here will also produce daughter plants, which can then be transplanted out.”

“Even then, an over-increase could cause trouble.”

“Yes, but if there is a demand, isn’t that a problem?”

“What does this mean…?”

Even Lalem gradually lost track of what he was saying.

“Not just orcs, but others will want to eat the fruit of Nefs. Isn’t the fruit of Nefs very popular in Phrygia?”

"Ah, it's almost unheard of in the market. It's almost rare. I think most of the people who have eaten it are nobles."

“Then it will definitely sell well.”

Chaim, who had just finished a task, came over and answered, "That's what I mean. The fruit of the Neves can be sold as a commodity. We are building such a large Neves garden for this purpose."

Lalem seemed to understand this innovative idea, and because of this, she began to think.

"But..., Lelem and his men have no way of transporting enough Nefs to the caravan site."

"There is no need to sell it. Just let the buyer come. Ye Kai said that Naifs has such value."

"Ahhh!"

Lilem was surprised. She had always thought that orcs could not do such a thing, and this common sense troubled her.

“Is it really possible…, that kind of thing?”

"It would be more efficient for both sides. Few orcs have the ability of a warehouse holder, so trade is difficult, right? But Phrygian merchants have many warehouse holders. They can deliver the nephs to buyers without letting them rot."

“Will it sell?”

The uneasiness was not easy to eliminate. The orcs knew that they lived in this place. Therefore, they called this place the 'Orc Reservation'.

However, from the perspective of the Kingdom of Phrygia, they felt that they were accommodating the orcs. Therefore, they called the areas allocated to the orcs "Orc Settlement Areas". This treatment was even more popular in the caravan lands.

“Tulio, what do you think?”

"It will sell very well. Almost certainly. Specialty items like Neves usually sell like hot cakes."

Lalem's emotions became excited. The future she expected seemed beyond her scope. What kind of changes would this future bring to the village?

“Will the village become rich…, what do you think?”

"Maybe. But there must be a trap. Merchants may come to buy at high prices, saying 'Bring the Neves here.' Of course, if we let them compete, the profit will be greater. We can also keep some for our own consumption and sell the rest."

"That may bring disadvantages in the future. Merchants think they can negotiate, so they may want to buy at a lower price next time. Merchants are like this. It is difficult for you, a simple-minded person, to trade on an equal footing with these sophisticated merchants."

Once again, Lalem was in a state of uneasiness. Perhaps she had never experienced such a day of such emotional ups and downs in her life before.

“So, what should we do?”

“Perhaps it would be best to sign a contract with a merchant or chamber of commerce.”

Now, it takes two or three round trips for the planted Naif trees to bear fruit, about two and a half to three and a half months. During this time, there is enough time to consider the unit price of each plant, how much to consume and how much to sell.

If there is a profit, you don't have to make nefes your main food. You can buy some foods that can be kept for a long time, such as flour and dried beans.

Lelem explains the concept of these food balances.

“I feel like my mind is a little confused.”

“There’s no need to rush, take your time to think about it. Which is the best way for Dedente? There are many options and a future waiting for you.”

"I will. I think a sudden change in the environment might be harmful to us. Maybe it's better to take it slow."

She has regained her composure. She is smart and will surely be able to create a new future.

"Okay, everyone! Let's call it a day before the rainstorm comes. Re-digging the cave is a very troublesome task, right?"

"Looks like it's going well, Ye Kai."

"If you don't help, you won't be able to survive."

“I also want to see what happens next.”

“Though we also want to expand this to the entire Orc Reservation.”

“I’ll try to help too!”

She is also enthusiastic about the bright future of the orcs.

"Then hurry up and dig a hole! Dogs are good for nothing else!"

"Stop drooling over the thought of eating Neves!"

“It’s so noisy!”

"You're the one making so much noise!"

Ye Kai thought it would be better if they could be closer.
