Chapter 36: Can't Take Your Eyes Off

Zhuang Yu is now repairing his market while teaching the people of White City how to make pottery.

Although he only exchanged the method of making pottery for a promise from White City, Shao Hao said that as long as he made a request, White City would do its best to fulfill it.

As one of the promises of the Five Powers, it carries considerable weight.

Zhuang Yu's market is not yet repaired, but people are already patronizing his simple tofu pudding stall. After the children who helped him repair the market returned to their Tribes, they kept boasting about how delicious the tofu pudding was, which was an extraordinary advertisement.

Their tofu pudding stall is still just a roadside stall, but they have some basic equipment: a rectangular stone table and a row of small stone stools.

Even though Zhuang Yu is not there now, a group of kids have already opened for business. With two fingers extended and mouths not yet fully developed, they say, "One piece of meat, two bowls of tofu pudding, we want it fresh, no old meat."

Meat, salt, and other items are common exchange items among Tribes.

One piece of meat for two bowls is a bit expensive, but for the people of White City, their prey is always exceptionally large, so a piece of meat is not much.

With a slap on the stone table, "Bring two bowls."

Their demeanor is bold, perhaps a bit too barbaric.

It looks like a few primitive savages sitting at the stone table.

But everyone looks the same, and nobody thinks much of it.

The group of kids is ecstatic; they actually got some meat in exchange.

They make the tofu pudding themselves, following Zhuang Yu's instructions step by step.

Today, they ground the beans themselves and made the tofu pudding under Zhuang Yu's guidance. Selling it themselves fills them with joy.

When a bowl of tofu pudding, as white as snowflakes in water, is served, even those who initially thought it was expensive don't think so anymore.

A bowl of tofu pudding, an oil plate, a pair of chopsticks.

The group of barbarians can't help but blink their eyes.

What are they seeing?

Their mouths open in amazement, "Is this the unique pottery of the Central Red Empire?"

"This tofu pudding is actually served in pottery."

"Pottery is expensive, and the key is, even if you have meat, you can't buy it. Crimson Great City never sells it to outsiders."

Looking at the "exquisite" pottery, everyone is a bit dumbfounded. Who dares to say it's expensive now? Before, even touching pottery was impossible.

Pottery is a symbol of civilization, and they remember clearly the proud expressions of the Crimson City's people when they looked down on them as barbarians while holding pottery.

They were just coming to eat the delicious food spoken highly of by children, but it's actually served in pottery. Oh my god.

For some reason, the big men who were originally sitting with their legs crossed have put their feet down. They are civilized people now. What was it like for Crimson City's people to eat?

Someone frowned, "Kid, how do you eat this tofu pudding?"

It doesn't look like something you eat with your hands.
