Chapter 675, Why Aren’t We First?

Translator: Silavin

 

Kuang and the others finished touring the Central Market, having traded for quite a few items, with boxes large and small piled up beside them.

 

These were all items traded from various shops, including perfume, wine, ceramics, and so forth.

 

Each shop they visited left them utterly astounded, as if they were people who had never seen the world.

 

“The Flame Dragon Tribe’s Central Market is truly wonderful to browse through…” Kai remained immersed in shock.

 

He had never imagined that the Flame Dragon Tribe would develop so rapidly. Clearly, when they visited last year, it was not like this. At that time, there were only ceramics and linen. Why were there so many more things now?

 

Most importantly, these things were all great. In just a few short months, how did they come up with such fine items?

 

“It’s truly very different from our last visit.” Luo sighed deeply.

 

His attention had originally been focused solely on food, but after touring the Central Market, he had forgotten about that. All his attention was now captured by those goods. That was just how amazing they were.

 

“I wonder if there’ll be different things again when we come next time?” Lan said curiously.

 

She had just browsed through the Central Market with great enthusiasm, feeling that she could spend a very long time in every shop.

 

“Let’s pack up our things and leave. We’ll go outside to make a fire and roast meat to eat.” Kuang was getting rather hungry.

 

“Yes.” The Warriors responded in unison.

 

Just as they were preparing to organise their things, the shopkeeper who sold linen walked out very enthusiastically.

 

He wiped his hands on his body and asked. “Are you about to go outside?”

 

“Yeah, we’ve finished trading and want to go outside to find a place to rest for the night,” Kuang nodded gently.

 

Originally, at the entrance, because of the weapon incident, his good impression of the Flame Dragon Tribe had disappeared.

 

Naturally, he did not want to be polite to the Flame Dragon Tribe’s people either, but after browsing for an entire afternoon, he discovered they were actually quite decent.

 

“Plus, we’re getting rather hungry and need to hurry outside to eat.” Luo immediately scratched the back of his head.

 

“If that’s the case, there’s no need to go outside. You can spend the night directly in our Tribe. We also have a barbecue shop here.” The shopkeeper enthusiastically explained.

 

“Spend the night in your Tribe? Where would we sleep then?” Kai widened his blue eyes.

 

“Surely we can’t sleep in your house? And what’s a barbecue shop?” Luo was most concerned about that barbecue shop.

 

“Of course you wouldn’t be staying in our home, but rather at the Restful Night Building, which our Shaman specifically had our people construct.”

 

The shopkeeper pointed to the other side of the Central Market and continued, “If you walk straight ahead from here, you’ll be able to see it. You can spend the night there.”

 

“What about the barbecue shop? What about the barbecue shop?” Luo asked impatiently.

 

“The barbecue shop is nearby. Walk forward a bit and you’ll see it, though you might have to queue.” The shopkeeper said.

 

“I wonder if the place where we can spend the night also requires dried meat as payment?” Kuang asked.

 

This point still needed to be clarified. Everyone knew there was no such thing as a free lunch.

 

“Of course, it’s charged according to the number of rooms you stay in, though it won’t be too much. One bag of dried meat per room will do.” The shopkeeper smiled slightly.

 

This was also what Sha Lan had arranged for them to say in advance. These people who came in were all quite late. Presumably after touring the Central Market, it would already be evening, and they would certainly need to go outside to prepare for their accommodation.

 

This was when they could properly promote the Restful Night Building, which had been completed two days ago.

 

The time spent building it was approximately a month. Three floors were built in total, making it taller than the other normal cement houses.

 

Just as previously planned, the first floor was for eating, while the second and third floors were for the accommodation.

 

“One bag of dried meat per room? Would we be staying in those cement houses?” Kuang asked.

 

If they were staying in those cement houses, then one bag of dried meat for one night would not be a loss.

 

After all, they could properly experience what it felt like to live inside a cement house.

 

“Of course, in a cement house. Not just anyone can stay in them.” The shopkeeper laughed.

 

“Great, then we’ll head there,” Kuang also very much wanted to experience the feeling of living in a cement house.

 

Mainly because looking around the Flame Dragon Tribe, one could see tall cement houses everywhere.

 

Since they had come to the Flame Dragon Tribe and happened to have the opportunity to experience this, it would be unreasonable not to try, wouldn’t it?

 

“Great! Finally, we won’t have to sleep in the forest tonight!” Lan breathed a deep sigh of relief.

 

She thought about how if they went outside later, they would still need to hunt, set up tents, keep watch, and so forth. It was all so bothersome.

 

Even if she did not have to do it all herself, just thinking about these things made it feel tiresome.

 

“Shall we go to the barbecue shop first? We need to fill our stomachs, after all.” Luo said with an embarrassed smile.

 

Although he also wanted to stay in a cement house, food was still most important to him. He had been thinking, dreaming of the Flame Dragon Tribe’s food, and now hearing about a barbecue shop, how could he not want to try it?

 

“En, let’s go to the barbecue shop first,” Kuang agreed.

 

*Step step step…*

 

Everyone followed the directions and walked to the barbecue shop entrance, but at this time, the entrance was already full of people.

 

These people were all from the Flame Dragon Tribe. Kuang and his group were the first batch from other Tribes.

 

There were still many people from other Tribes browsing in the Central Market, having entered slightly later.

 

“Why do we still have to queue?” Lan furrowed her brow.

 

They had thought they could go in and eat immediately, not expecting to have to wait at the entrance.

 

“They aren’t Totem Warriors. They’re also not Warrior Trainees. Why should we queue behind them?” Luo also did not quite understand.

 

He was hungry and wanted to hurry inside to eat. Back in the Giant Bear Tribe, Warriors always had priority. No matter what they were doing, as long as the Warriors arrived, everyone else had to step aside.

 

“This is the Flame Dragon Tribe. We must follow their rules.” Kuang coldly said.

 

Naturally, he did not understand this point either, but thinking it over, since this was the Flame Dragon Tribe, this was just how things worked and he just had to accept it.

 

“But isn’t every Tribe the same? Warriors always have priority. Without us, where would the Tribes be?” Lan pouted her small mouth with dissatisfaction.

 

She felt  indignant, possibly because she was too hungry, and this place was so different from their Tribe.

 

“Let’s wait a bit longer. We should reach our turn soon.” Kai said helplessly.

 

Naturally, he also wanted to enter quickly. Queuing behind those ordinary people made him uncomfortable.

 

“I think we should give the Flame Dragon Tribe some suggestions. Next time, let us go first.” Lan still felt very uncomfortable.

 

“Forget it.” Li said coldly.
