Original God, starting from the sister against the brother

"Now, is there anything else you want to say?"

Candice's tone was no longer as gentle as usual, and she spoke to the black-hearted foreman in a somewhat cold tone.

"Uh... No, no more."

The black-hearted foreman waved his hands and answered guiltily.

Seeing the angry villagers surrounding him step by step, blocking his retreat, the black-hearted foreman swallowed his saliva and thought to himself that he was in trouble.

Surrounded by so many villagers, it was impossible for him to escape and he could only choose to accept the punishment of this Miss Guardian.

With the witness of fellow villagers, Candice made the black-hearted foreman receive the punishment he deserved, and expelled him from [Aru Village] permanently, never to set foot on this land of the Red King's people again in his life.

However, Candice did not go too far. When she expelled the foreman, she gave him enough supplies to get out of the desert.

After dealing with this matter, Arushun had a much better impression of Chao Ke and Falushan.

Candice also expressed her gratitude to Chao Ke, and told the villagers of Aru Village that she would find out about the salary standards of Xumi's employment to prevent such things from happening again in Aru Village.

The villagers of Aru Village were quite satisfied with Candice's handling of the situation, so they all dispersed.

But among the crowd of onlookers, there was a villager who did not leave, but walked quickly towards Chao Ke.

"Mr. Chao Ke, please wait for me!"

Hearing the voice, Chao Ke turned around and found that the person chasing him was an acquaintance.

Azalai, a merchant in Aru village.

The last time Chao Ke passed through Aru Village, he had dinner and stayed overnight at this old man's home.

I also got the recipes for the two dishes [Aru Bibimbap] and [Gilded Pot] from him.

Chao Ke had a very good impression of this simple and helpful old man.

"Brother Azalai, long time no see, how have you been recently?"

Azalai touched his head and said with a smile, "The village has just been opened to the outside world. Many merchants have come here recently. As the only merchant in the village, my life is relatively easy."

"That's fine. By the way, Brother Azalai, is there something you want to talk to me about?"

"Oh! Yes, I almost forgot something!"

"Mr. Chao Ke, this is the check you left at our house last time. Please keep it."

As he spoke, Azalai reached into his pocket, carefully took out the Northland Bank check with a face value of one million, and handed it to Chao Ke.

"Brother Azalai, that's not necessary."

Chao Ke did not take the check. "These Moras of mine were originally meant to pay for the transfer of your recipes and for the food and lodging at your home."

"No, no."

Azale shook his head and said, “I provided you with those recipes, food and accommodation voluntarily. Even if I charge you for it, it doesn’t have to be so much.”

Chao Ke was stunned for a moment. He was at a loss for what to do with this businessman who took the initiative to send Mora away. He couldn't beat up Brother Azale and force him to accept Mora.

Chao Ke lowered his head and thought, and soon he came up with a solution.

"Brother Azalai, how about this? My wife and I plan to have a honeymoon trip in the desert. During this time, you will be responsible for our food and accommodation. How about that?"

Azalai paused. If that were the case...

"Take it, brother. Instead of making excuses, why not prepare some good food and wine for us?"

"Okay! I'll do as you say, Mr. Chao Ke. The guest room at home happens to be empty, so I'll go back and ask my wife to clean it up for you."

After the conversation, Azalai accepted the check from Chao Ke and walked quickly towards home.

Falushan, who was standing by, poked Chao Ke's abdominal muscles and said with emotion, "I didn't expect that you have acquaintances in this closed Aru Village."

"Well, it's a coincidence. I was basically the first group of outsiders to visit Aru Village after it was opened to the outside world..."

......

In the evening, Falushan and Chaoke returned to the Aru Village from the vast desert.

According to Senior Falushan’s “honeymoon plan”, the last stop is to take Chao Ke to the vast desert to find an undeveloped relic.

Then, he took Chao Ke to the ruins for an investigative exploration, which not only allowed Chao Ke to understand a corner of Xumi's past history, but also allowed Chao Ke to witness the research process in his own academic field, deepening the mutual understanding between the two.

However, it is extremely difficult to find an undeveloped relic in Xumi a hundred years later.

The two of them wandered in the vast desert of Xumi for an entire afternoon but gained nothing.

The few ruins that were discovered had all been explored by humans.

The reason for this phenomenon is closely related to Senior Yu Falushan.

Falushan's academic achievements made a hundred years ago have been widely used by scholars in recent years, greatly accelerating the exploration of the ruins.

So much so that today, a hundred years later, it is really not easy to find an undeveloped relic.

Falushan was a little amused and helpless about this result.

Helplessly, he could only follow Chao Kexian back to Aru Village to rest, and then try his luck in another direction tomorrow.

.....

In Aru Village, at the home of merchant Azalai.

Azale's wife spent most of the day cleaning the house from top to bottom. The windows were bright and clean, and it looked tidy at first glance.

And Azalai also finished his business for the day early.

And bought the best wine from the traveling merchants;

I exchanged the freshest vegetables with my mother-in-law who farmed the land;

They exchanged the most exotic goods for the most tender meat from the hunters in the village.

With this abundant supply of ingredients, Azalai returned home and started cooking.

When Chao Ke and Falushan came to visit, they were warmly welcomed by Azalai's wife.

Azalai also walked out of the kitchen, asked Chao Ke and the others to sit down, and said that dinner would be ready soon.

In order to ease the awkwardness of waiting for the meal, Azalai's wife took the initiative to talk about family matters and chatted with Chao Ke and Falushan.

After a while, Azalai came out with a sumptuous meal.

"Haha, the food is here!"

"Why are you looking at me? Eat!"

"I learned this cooking skill from Jebari, the best cook in our Aru Village. This little dish tastes really good!"

Chao Ke's mouth twitched, but fortunately, there was no chicken soup on the table, but the [Aru Bibimbap] and [Gold-plated Pot] which were quite characteristic of Aru Village.

At this moment, Azalai's wife also stood up, took out four wine bottles from the cabinet, and distributed them to everyone one by one.

When Azalai saw his wife distributing bottles of wine, he slapped his head and said, "Look at me, I was so focused on cooking that I forgot to take out the wine."

After saying this, Azalai stood up, went down to the cellar of his home, and took out a plain, undecorated pottery jar.

He bought this jar of wine in the afternoon and stored it in the cellar.

Because it was damp underground and he covered the wine with a layer of water when storing it, the ceramic wine jar felt quite cool to the touch.

This kind of undecorated ceramic jar used for storage is called a plain treasure bottle in Sumeru.

In Kawanyi, there is a large ceramic water tank that can provide drinking water for a hundred people. It is also a type of plain treasure bottle and is called "Bai Yin".

And now, the big wine jar that Azalai is holding is called the Plain Treasure Vase - [Ten Drunks].

The story behind this is as follows.

Some merchants in Kawan Post discovered business opportunities in some mercenaries and the Gilded Brigade.

They walked in the desert for a long time and were used to drinking strong liquor in large gulps.

So, the merchants in Kawanyi ordered these simple pottery jars with reinforced lids, filled them with large amounts of affordable liquor, sealed them, and sold them to the men walking in the desert.

It is said that even if a wine lover who is famous in the Xumi Desert drinks until he passes out, the amount he consumes is only one tenth of the volume of this wine jar.

Therefore, this plain treasure vase was named "Ten Drunks".
