I Transmigrated Into A Fantasy World To Farm And Build Houses!-Chapter 374: Gathering Fragrances

Joseph led the Dwarves back from the Gray tribe; besides bricks, they also brought newly made grenades.

Their power was even greater than when first manufactured, so they made a few more to store away.

Later, if encountering danger, throwing out a large number of grenades would also be a trump card for self-defense.

The Tiger tribe actively helping this time was not just because of the canteen’s food.

Eric knew, and Thomas could also guess their thoughts, it was just that neither side wanted to fall out.

Free labor would be a waste not to use; the Tiger tribe worked swiftly, not to mention these were all carefully selected warriors.

Farming really had no secrets.

Even if they weren’t allowed to participate, just observing carefully couldn’t hide the process; the difference only lay in the details. As long as there were no bad intentions, Eric wasn’t afraid of them learning it illicitly.

Not that he was overconfident, but without him, even if the Golden Kingdom knew how to grow cotton, they wouldn’t know how to utilize it unless they could also make looms and spinning machines themselves.

At most, it would help the kingdom earn a little more money by selling cotton directly to humans.

The Golden Kingdom’s consumption channel could only be selling to humans.

After all, other beastmen had a hostile attitude towards them, and moreover, this wasn’t cotton cloth or other necessities.

Other beastman tribes not only didn’t want to buy, but buying it back would serve no great purpose.

Eric felt assured letting the Tiger tribe come to help; his attitude was very straightforward, conversely making Sunflower feel embarrassed and extremely ashamed in his heart.

To compensate, he led the Tiger tribe to work with all their might, not slacking off at all.

Cotton was also sown by seeds, just that the spacing and depth were different.

Previously everyone had planted so many acres of fields; this time, after watching the human slaves do it for a while, everyone gradually got used to it.

In the later stage, the slaves only needed to supervise the planting methods of beastmen in different areas.

Seeing the clansmen working very enthusiastically and their techniques gradually becoming proficient, no longer unfamiliar like the first time sowing, Eric followed the planting for a day and then returned with peace of mind to attend to his own affairs.

The conversation with the Halun merchant group before, Eric always kept in mind, especially soap and skincare products. If they could be made, this would be a source of huge profit.

The method for making crude soap was quite simple, Eric remembered it quite well, but scented soap was much harder, giving him a real headache.

Whether it was scented soap or skincare products, there was one indispensable thing, which was fragrance.

Here, things that could provide fragrance could only be found in the forest.

Flowers were best; besides, there were also various types of leaves with special scents.

To avoid Sam’s strange gaze, Eric hadn’t been to the canteen for a long time; otherwise, if Arthur was also there, the scene would be very awkward.

Previously when he went out to gather things, if he didn’t bring Sam, it would be Arthur. Now he didn’t want to bring anyone, so he called the beast cubs and led them together to the area with many trees.

Spring returned and hundreds of flowers bloomed, especially the flowers of most fruit trees, blooming prosperously and fragrantly.

Eric felt a bit lonely walking alone, leading a group of chirping cubs, as lively as going on a picnic. He was like a kindergarten teacher, only lacking handing out snacks to each child.

The Dwarf children ran on short legs chasing after the little Snow Wolves and little goats, with a little black cat jumping around in the middle.

Dwarf legs were short, and children’s were even shorter.

Fortunately, their stamina was good. From the tribe to here was more than ten kilometers; if it were normal human children, they couldn’t possibly walk such a long distance, but for them, it was an everyday matter.

Moreover, to catch up with the four-legged beast cubs, they had to run even faster.

"Eric, you said you needed something fragrant; look at this flower, it smells so good!"

Chubby Tullte shook his fluffy white butt walking over, looking incredibly cute, only the flower in his hand wasn’t so cute...

Little girl Flower on the side mocked mercilessly: "Hahaha, even a man-eating flower you bring to give Eric; really don’t understand where it smells good."

"And it’s ugly too," Mun passed by and said disdainfully.

With his aesthetics questioned to the extreme, Tullte unconvincedly raised the ferocious-looking flower in his hand high: "Eric, smell it, it really smells good, just be careful not to let it bite."

This flower looked very much like a Wide-Mouthed Flower, only much smaller in size and more colorful.

Golden stamens and magnificent purple petals; beautiful indeed, only the large mouth with a row of sharp yellow teeth opening in the middle of the stamens ruined that beauty.

Eric reluctantly took it, not having the heart to refuse the little kid’s good intentions, and sniffed lightly.

Originally thinking a flower that looked carnivorous at first glance wouldn’t smell that good, unexpectedly the scent was excellent, both fragrant and sweet like nectar.

No wonder Tullte said it smelled very good; Eric had thought the child’s nose was also abnormal.

The forest was full of the smell of flowers and leaves everywhere; Eric hadn’t noticed this type of flower was so fragrant at first.

Perhaps this scent was also its trick to attract prey.

Looking at the size of this flower, normally it probably only ate insects, just like some carnivorous plants he had heard of in his previous life, first emitting a scent that insects liked, then taking the opportunity to eat them.

"It really smells good, Tullte, good job. But you also have to be careful, don’t let it bite," Eric praised and rubbed Tullte’s head.

Leo led Gray running to a further place to pick a bouquet of pink flowers and ran back.

Hearing that, he was a bit jealous. He squeezed Tullte out of the way and placed the bouquet in his brother’s arms: "My flowers are the most beautiful and most fragrant."

Gray also nodded repeatedly. It had passed the trial now; its mouth had been released, moving freely.

Eric rubbed Leo’s head.

The boy had grown taller again, reaching his shoulder.

After nutrition was sufficient, the kid grew very fast.

Perhaps beastmen of the same age were this tall, only that previously both the boy and the original host lacked nutrition.

With the condition of the original host’s body, perhaps later he couldn’t be as tall as Max and the others.

This was because after Eric transmigrated, eating well and dressing warmly with sufficient nutrition allowed him to grow a bit taller.

Later when fully grown, the difference probably wouldn’t be too huge.

He hugged a large bouquet of pink flowers, lowered his head to take a deep breath; the refreshing fragrance made his whole person feel refreshed along with it: "This type of flower must be from a fruit tree; it grows quite high, did you climb the tree again?"

Leo proudly patted the little gray bird beside him: "It was Gray who climbed up to pick them."

Eric was a bit surprised.

Gray listened to Leo like that.

Even if it was a magic beast raised from a young age, close to beastmen, it wouldn’t necessarily obey commands. Unexpectedly, in such a short time, Gray could understand Leo’s intentions and was willing to listen.

The flowers of this unknown fruit tree smelled very fragrant; the scent wasn’t strong but lasted very long, also a good material.

Without essential oils, fragrances extracted from plants completely naturally weren’t that intense, but the scents wouldn’t be wrong; any type would definitely be very fragrant.

Coincidentally, Eric didn’t like strong scents.

Previously when he took passenger buses, he was most afraid of people smoking and people spraying perfume; either type made him just want to jump off the bus immediately.

The man-eating flower Tullte found had a strong scent, only the big mouth in the middle was a bit difficult to deal with.

But Eric wasn’t afraid either; Snow Wolf skin was very tough, a bite would at most hurt a little, impossible to break the skin.

Other beast cubs also picked all kinds of flowers and brought them back; everyone happily played and searched, treating this trip as a game.

The little goats’ preferences were a bit special; what they found fragrant were all leaves, some even stuffed them straight into their mouths and started eating, making other beast cubs imitate but find it hard to accept.

The scent of leaves was different from flowers, clear and natural; adding other floral scents to harmonize, the smell would definitely be excellent.

Conveniently finding some more wild vegetables and catching a few guinea pigs, Eric finally led the beast cubs hugging flowers and grass back home.
