Chapter 29: The Threat in the Shadows!

Another type of waterwheel Liu Xiao mentioned is the most common round roller waterwheel.

This kind of water wheel is very suitable for transporting water from low places to high places. And he plans to build this round roller water wheel in the reservoir next to the camp. This will use the camp reservoir as a transfer and then transport the river water.

Into the valley with higher terrain, this perfectly solves the problem of water shortage in the valley camp!

After finishing this important task, Liu Xiao realized that his stomach was already growling, and they had spent the entire morning doing it.

The group happily walked and talked about the magical keel waterwheel. When they were about to return to the camp, they smelled a scent wafting in the air from a distance.

That's the rice brought by Liu Xiao. He wants his employees to taste the delicious rice!

After these days of understanding, Liu Xiao knew that the most common foods people eat in other worlds are wheat and soy products.

There seems to be no rice, no corn, and no potatoes in this world.

"Wow~~~What is this? It smells so good~~and so white~it looks delicious!"

"You all stay away! The boss said you can't eat it yet!"

The undead Kota, who was responsible for maintaining order, waved a sharp bone-cutting knife in his hand and drove away those who wanted to steal the rice.

At this time, Liu Xiao, Johnson and others had returned. He smiled and waved his hands and said: "Everyone, please be patient~~~ It will be too monotonous to eat white rice for nothing~! I am going to serve you a big pot of stew.

Dish! Bang Bang, bring up my special big iron pot~!"

Under Liu Xiao's order, Cyclops Bangbang carried a huge iron pot, poured hot water, and set it on a pile of already lit firewood.

At this time, Liu Xiao rolled up his sleeves, took a shovel, and poured the purchased fresh vegetables into the boiling water.

Then he opened some semi-finished frozen meatballs, fish balls, fish tofu, crab sticks and other convenience foods, and mixed them all together.

Liu Xiao knew that as long as these natives from another world could eat, they would be extremely satisfied. No one cared about whether the taste was authentic or not, so what he wanted was speed!

At that moment, he poured a bag of hot pot base ingredients into the pot and stirred it back and forth with a shovel.

With this ready-made base, there is no need to add extra salt, vinegar and other seasonings. You only need to cover the pot and let all the ingredients boil and blend inside.

After a while, Liu Xiao found that the indigenous employees surrounding him were all drooling, their eyes were red, and they showed signs of going berserk.

The expressions of the newly joined orc friends were relatively confused, because they did not know what this scent that they had never smelled before represented. They only knew that it seemed to be a scent that they had never tried before.

Liu Xiao raised his hand and looked at the time, and ordered loudly: "Okay~~~Now everyone should line up under the leadership of your team leader~Get the bowls~Get ready to serve rice~!"

Although the smell emanating from the big iron pot drove the natives of the other world almost crazy, reciting the rules and regulations of the Chamber of Commerce every day allowed them to subconsciously and mechanically act in accordance with the rules in their hearts.

Coupled with the threat of the sharp knife in the hands of the undead Kota, the scene was still orderly, and the queue was finally formed.

"Now serve the rice one by one~!"

Liu Xiao guest-starred as the temporary chef. After cooking a large pot of stew, he started serving rice to everyone.

He had previously made rice bowls of different sizes according to the size and appetite of each employee. Now he used a shovel to shovel the rice into those exaggeratedly huge rice plates, sending away one employee after another who looked enthusiastic.

The employees who had finished making rice sat consciously in a circle in the center of the camp.

Although the orcs who joined later did not know what to do, they followed suit and sat there with white rice in wooden bowls.

At this moment, Liu Xiao finally opened the lid of the big iron pot, letting the heat and aroma instantly spread throughout the camp!

"Wow~~it smells so good! Boss~What kind of delicacy is this? I have never smelled such a fragrant fragrance in my life! It tastes better than ham sausage!"

Abu looked at the pot of stew in front of him and almost shed tears.

"Of course~! As long as you follow the boss well, there will be a lot of delicious food in the future~! Come~ distribute these dishes to everyone, one bowl per person, to ensure that everyone can eat."

In order to avoid crowding and accidents, Liu Xiao asked everyone to line up and sit in a circle after finishing the rice. Then several middle-level officials from the Abu Chamber of Commerce were responsible for distributing the prepared stew to everyone.

By the time all this was done, it was already half an hour later.

After sharing the rice and stew, Liu Xiao discovered that he and Abu's middle-level employees didn't get their share! But who made them the leaders? As leaders, they have to set an example for everyone.

Although Bang Bang's clothes on his chest were wet with his saliva, he still endured it.

After all, they have tried many more delicacies brought by the boss than ordinary employees. At least none of the employees have eaten instant noodles, chicken feet, or duck necks. They still have a sense of superiority.

However, when everyone got their own white rice and stews, it was very strange that no one took a bite first. They all looked at where Liu Xiao was standing, folded their hands on their chests, and closed their eyes.

The eyes began to pray.

“Thank you to the great Creator of Hope~~~The embodiment of technology and wisdom~~~Lord of commerce and agriculture~~~Guardian of the Nine-Nine-Six Blessings~~~Creator of Hope and Food~~~Thank you for your gift~

~~Praise you~~~”

The orcs looked at the actions of these chamber of commerce employees with some confusion at first, and then they clumsily followed them together.

Half-orc leader Moses' eyes burst with hot light! He said in his heart, "So that's it! No wonder the residents of these cursed lands suddenly changed so much! It turns out that they actually believe in a true God! And they got this

The protection of a true god! Great... The choice of the half-orcs this time is indeed the right one! Following this true god, they will definitely be able to get out of their current predicament, and may even regain their past glory!"

"Praise you~~! Long live the Creator~! Long live the 996~! Long live the boss~!"

Amidst deafening shouts, everyone's pre-meal prayers finally came to an end, and then there was the sound of chewing like a mixer mixing cement.

Liu Xiao looked at this spectacular scene and regained his composure within five minutes.

Everyone finished the rice and stew in their bowls, and licked the vegetable soup at the bottom of the bowl with unsatisfied taste.

Good guy, it looks like you haven’t eaten anything! This consumption is unparalleled!

After lunch, the newly joined half-orcs imitated the old employees and began to recite the rules and regulations of the Chamber of Commerce, one by one. The first person to recite it skillfully will be rewarded with a piece of food called ham sausage.

I heard that the ham sausage has been sold within the Chamber of Commerce for a price as high as two weeks' salary per piece!

As the saying goes, "Heavy rewards will lead to brave men"!

The jungle orcs, who originally thought those rules and regulations were particularly difficult to pronounce, were now frantically trying to memorize them in their minds. They were immersed in reading them one by one, just to be the first to get a piece of ham.

Liu Xiao looked at the studious orc and showed a happy smile.

"Very good, very good~!"

After completing the necessary procedures, everyone once again got into the afternoon work.

While Liu Xiao ordered everyone to continue digging diversion channels and reservoirs, he also freed up manpower to start clearing the road from the camp to the valley.

They removed weeds and thorns from the surrounding areas, widened the roads, and cut down excess trees and vegetation.

The strong Cyclops held huge wooden hammers in their hands and began to pound the ground step by step, creating a depression in the road.

After that, Liu Xiao ordered everyone to get some soil dug from the hills, light a flame and fry it, then mix the fried soil with some gravel and spread it on the ground.

After the laying is completed, there is another round of hammering and compaction.

Liu Xiao dared to conclude that when he entered the camp again tomorrow, the road would have been almost completed.

But while the Riot Chamber of Commerce camp was in full swing, there were some malicious eyes watching them in the bushes not far away.

"The leader is this group of people! They call themselves the 'Fist Chamber of Commerce' and have business dealings with the big shots in the abandoned castle! Have you seen that carriage? I heard that it can be sold for a lot of Rondo gold coins!"

In the grass, a jackal with a wolf head and a tongue hanging out from his mouth smiled.

Next to him was another burly jackal with a bigger body and an eyepatch covering one eye.

He is the leader of the Jackal Bandit Group in the Cursed Land--Kemog.

"Hmph~! A bunch of chickens and dogs actually occupy so much wealth? What did that smell just now? It smells so damn good! These fat meats belong to us jackals...! Let's start a fight, little ones!

Come on, let's go on a killing spree and take advantage of him~~!"
