Chapter 50: Waterwheel Irrigation System

At night, the three bright moons in the sky illuminated the land.

Perhaps because there were no tall ancient trees in the Crimson Land, it looked very bright, especially with the ground in the desert reflecting some silver light, like an endless silver sea.

The people of the Crimson Great City finished a hard day's work and were roasting meat in their own courtyards.

The houses in the Crimson Great City were basically arranged around courtyards, varying only in size.

As usual, they lit the fire with flint to roast the meat. Speaking of flint, the people of the Crimson Great City felt a bit proud. This was taught to them by their Young Prince many years ago. In the past, they had to preserve the fire, going a long way every day to get fire and bring it back to use. If the fire went out, it would be troublesome, unlike now, so convenient.

Not to mention, the Young Prince had also developed some fire techniques that ordinary people could use, making everyone in the Crimson Great City truly warriors. For their force, which had slightly fewer people, this was a great improvement. For example, his wife, who could now conjure a fireball at any moment, was becoming increasingly difficult to deal with.

Today's roast was a bit different. The women at home had just been summoned to Lady Chuntou of the Four Seasons War Tribe and came back with a different method of roasting.

The salt made by the Young Prince was good, the best he had ever tasted, but it wasn't as convenient as rock salt, not easy to lick directly off the hand.

The women at home began to sprinkle salt on the meat, which made people stare blankly. They said Lady Chuntou had just taught them a new way to roast meat using the new salt.

It was a bit more complicated than before.

As usual, they picked up the cooked meat, with some inconvenient salt on their hands, ready to take a bite of meat and lick a bit of salt.

Casually putting the meat into their mouths, their expressions froze.

"Ah!" Suddenly, they let out a scream.

This startled the women at home. "What's wrong? Is it not good? Then next time I'll roast it like before, licking the salt while eating. It's just a bit more troublesome now with this salt, not easy to lick off the hand..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she was glared at. What do you mean roast it like before? Hmph, was that even edible?

Hastily taking another bite, they didn't even have time to speak, stuffing another piece of meat into their own mouths.

The women were stunned. Didn't seem too bad, huh? Why did they scream so loudly just now? Startling everyone, those who didn't know might have thought something big had happened.

The women hesitantly put the meat into their mouths and then also screamed, "Ah!"

What kind of taste was this? Completely different from the previous roasted meat, the taste of the salt completely blended into the meat. Chewing the meat, every bite was delicious beyond belief.

Now, this was roasted meat. What they had roasted before was just... what was it? Roasting meat all their lives, only to find out they couldn't roast at all. Before, no matter how they roasted the meat, there was always a fishy taste, but now, the roasted meat had a fresh taste, rich texture, aside from the mouthful of meat aroma, the slight fishy taste could be completely ignored.

Why was tonight's roast meat so delicious? This was the same meat as before, the only difference was...

Almost simultaneously, the two looked at the salt, which was as delicate as snowflakes.
