The waterways of Xumi are winding, and the lover's arms are soft and delicate.

The crescent-shaped boat moved slowly forward as Chao Ke rowed the boat leisurely.

The two set out from Xumi City at noon, and it was not until dusk that they slowly arrived at Vimalakirti Manor to stop.

As a key area of ​​the Xumi waterway, there are many caravans and travelers traveling to and from Vimalakirti Village every year.

However, because it is not far from the port of Omos, Vimo Village did not retain much profit, but it was able to retain the tranquility that belongs to the village.

The busy passers-by and the leisurely villagers form a sharp contrast in Vimalakirti Village.

Many scholars who were overwhelmed by papers and schoolwork, many businessmen who were tired of the busy careers, and even the legendary female mercenary Jie Ye, codenamed "Female Master", chose to live in seclusion in the more humid and warm environment here.

So much so that outside Vimalakirti Manor, a legend about "cannibalism" spread.

And Falushan brought Chao Ke to stroll here, on the one hand, to relax from the busy work of writing papers and rushing reports in recent days.

On the other hand, he wanted Chao Ke to experience the peaceful and relaxed customs and culture of Weimo Village, so that Chao Ke could understand more about his own country.

But now that he was here, besides hanging out with Senior Falushan, Chao Ke also had two things he wanted to find out.

After strolling around for a while, the two found the village chief of Vimo Village, Amaziya, and Chao Ke also asked the village chief his questions.

First, let’s talk about the situation of Dolly, the little profiteer, and her sister.

Chao Ke learned this from the village chief, Amazia.

Since the last time I lent Mora to Dolly to buy medicine, Dolly's body quickly recovered with the help of medicine and the doctor's conditioning.

Now, the two sisters left Vimalakirti Manor together and arrived at the larger Xumi City to look for business opportunities to pay off their debts.

After saying this, the village chief Amaziya sighed and said with a somewhat lonely look.

"Alas, I don't know how these two children are doing in Xumi City... Have they been bullied by others in Xumi City..."

"Uncle, you might as well have more confidence in the children. Xumi City has both dangers and opportunities. If the children are capable, it will be a better stage there."

"Yes, that's exactly what happened."

The village chief, Amazia, nodded repeatedly, but his tone suddenly changed and he asked Chao Ke in a somewhat stiff tone.

"My dear traveler, how did you know about Dolly?"

With his keen insight, Chao Ke saw a fleeting gleam of sharpness in the eyes of the village chief Amaziya.

It seems that the village chief of Weimo Village also has an unusual past.

However, Chao Ke looked calm. He hugged Falushan beside him and explained to the village chief.

"That day I happened to be taking my wife to seek medical treatment and witnessed that scene. Today I stopped by Vimo Manor and wanted to learn more about it."

"Oh! I see. I thought you were the one who lent the money..."

The wariness in the village chief's eyes disappeared, and he smiled apologetically at Chao Ke and Falushan.

He laughed at Ke and didn't take over the conversation, but continued to ask.

"Uncle Village Chief, I have one more thing I want to ask you."

"Guest, please speak."

"Excuse me, has there been a child named... Alfonso who has joined the Weimo Manor recently?"

"Alfonso...?"

Murmuring the name, the village chief Amaziya fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he answered Chao Ke.

"I don't remember this name. He shouldn't be a long-time resident of the village."

Chao Ke frowned slightly. Hasn't Trofen Senetsevich gone to hide in Weimo Manor yet?

Forget it, I’ll come back to Vimalakirti after a few years.

The child in the family found a job that was not suitable for him.

As a parent, you should help if you can.

After "negotiating" with the [Doctor], he also helped his child find a job.

Weimozhuang is a nice place with many business travelers coming and going. If we open a branch of Jiaziwei Restaurant here, the business should be very good.

After finishing the conversation with the village chief Amaziya, Falushan took Chaoke to taste the special snacks in Weimo Village.

Although the taste of the snacks was just average and didn't give Chao Ke any surprises, the feeling of having his lover by his side was still very good.

However, the plates used in the Weimo Manor Chinese Restaurant caught Chao Ke's attention.

These plates are painted with complex patterns in the local Xumi style. Judging from their glaze, they should be made from Liyue technology, but some Xumi local adjustments have also been added.

Falushan, who was standing by, also noticed Chao Ke's gaze on the plates, so she picked up two empty plates and introduced them to Chao Ke.

"The firing of ceramics is a pillar industry in Weimo Village."

"The firing technology of this ceramic comes from the neighboring country of Liyue, but it has also been localized by the Xumi Ordinance Institute."

“Although the firing technology is not as advanced as that of Liyue, relying on Xumi’s mature fuel technology, Xumi has also developed its own ceramic style.”

As she spoke, Falushan placed two plates of different colors in front of Chao Ke.

“Guess what effects their different glaze colors have?”

Chao Ke took the two empty plates and looked at them carefully.

If I remember correctly, this plate with green and orange glaze as the main colors should have contained a meat dish.

The plate with a light gold glaze is filled with fresh vegetables and fruits.

Chao Ke speculated, "Could it be that the orange-green painted pottery plate is used for meat dishes, and this light gold plate is used for vegetarian dishes?"

Falushan nodded slightly, confirming Chao Ke's guess.

"Your guess is correct."

"This pottery plate, glazed with dark orange and green dyes, is professionally called [Salty and Fresh Meat Fragrance]. This combination of dyes prevents the plate from being stained by oil. Therefore, most restaurants in Xumi use it to serve meat dishes or oily vegetarian dishes."

"This painted pottery plate, glazed with a light gold dye, is corrosion-resistant, so most restaurants in Xumi use it to serve fresh fruits and vegetables and various dried fruits."

After hearing Senior Falushan's detailed explanation, Chao Ke couldn't help but sigh.

"So that's it..."

"Xumeru's ceramic manufacturing industry has indeed blazed a trail of its own."

Falushan nodded. "The prosperity of Xumi ceramic manufacturing is actually the spark created by the integration of different knowledge."

"The ceramics-making knowledge from Liyue and the dye-making knowledge from Xumi blended here to form new knowledge."

"Scholars' research should also be like this, allowing knowledge from multiple disciplines to intersect and produce unexpectedly fruitful results."

"Oh?"

Chao Ke thought of something and said to Falushan beside him.

"Senior, I also have a topic about the integration of Liyue and Xumi knowledge, and I would like to discuss it with you."

"What subject?"

Falushan also became interested and asked Chao Ke.

Chao Ke also slowly stated the name of the subject.

"On the hybridization results of Liyue's high-quality male genes and Xumi's high-quality female genes."

"What do you think, Senior? Are you interested in having an 'in-depth' 'exchange' with me tonight?"

"You bastard!"
