Chapter 257 The Shameful City Lord!
"Thank you, Lord City Lord! I've not only learned to write, but I've also learned to recognize over a hundred characters!"
Little Ling'er immediately said proudly, looking at Xiao Yu with admiration and gratitude.
Xiao Yu then asked several other children, and each of them said they had learned a lot.
In addition to learning to recognize characters, the classroom also teaches various wilderness survival skills.
Most importantly, these orc children received the most basic respect as human beings here!
In Dragon City, they finally felt that they were still human! Not monsters!
"You all did a great job! Study hard and make progress every day!"
Finally, Xiao Yu encouraged the children and waved goodbye with a smile.
"I understand. I'm sorry, Lord Dragon City, I misunderstood you!"
After taking a deep look at the group of children, Hou Ji slowly stood up and bowed to Xiao Yu.
He was deeply shocked, but even more so, he felt ashamed.
Even though the third brother said many good things about the Lord of Dragon City, they still didn't quite believe Xiao Yu.
But now, look at these orc children!
Of the thousands of orcs in the entire Beast City, how many can write their own names?
These children learned so much in just one or two days in Longcheng?
Moreover, the respect and gratitude they showed towards Xiao Yu were genuine!
The Lord of Dragon City not only showed no discrimination against the orcs, but was actually very friendly!
No wonder, Dragon City clearly possesses formidable strength, not much weaker than Beast City.
If Longcheng had stood by and watched the situation escalate, reaping the benefits instead, he would have taken over the entire salt mine long ago.
Now, not only have they saved their third brother and over a hundred orcs, but they've also left half of the orcs with them.
"In that case, can we talk about a deal?"
Seeing the drastic change in the attitude of the city lord of Ten Thousand Beasts City, Xiao Yu found it somewhat amusing.
"Of course! It is an honor for my Beast City to trade with Dragon City!" Hou Ji said, cupping his hands in greeting.
His tone was very sincere.
The City of Beasts has always been eager to communicate and trade with the outside world.
However, they were never treated as human beings.
Now, finally, we've met a kind person who treats them like human beings!
Houji would absolutely not miss this opportunity!
"That's good!" Xiao Yu nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.
This made him appreciate these orcs even more.
The humans they had encountered before, such as the elders of Black Soil City and Divine Weapon City, were all treacherous.
In comparison, these orcs are really too naive.
If you are truly good to them, they will definitely be clear about their gratitude and repay kindness!
"Like this..." Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"First City Lord, Third City Lord, I'll have Deputy City Lord Honglian accompany you to stroll around the commercial street. You can first sample the delicacies of Dragon City and see what your Beast City needs. We can discuss the specifics then."
"Alright, then I'll leave it to Deputy City Lord Honglian!"
A moment later, accompanied by Honglian and the three beast-eared girls, Hou Ji and his two companions arrived at the commercial street.
"What's that smell? It smells so good!"
As soon as they arrived at the shopping street, the girl with the ram's horn sniffed, looking very curious.
The first shop on the commercial street sells corn, both steamed and boiled.
The steamed corn is fully cooked, and its rich, sweet aroma fills the air instantly.
These beastmen, who have never seen the world and live a simple life in the mountains, could hardly resist temptation.
They all stared intently at the corn shop, almost turning into wild beasts and grabbing it.
"Gentlemen, this is the signature dish of my Dragon City, corn! The first thing everyone does when they come to Dragon City is to try it." Seeing the three of them attracted by the corn, Honglian explained with a smile.
The main vegetables grown in Longcheng now are corn, tomatoes, and cabbage.
Tomatoes are delicious, but they don't fill you up, while cabbage can only be stir-fried.
In contrast.
Corn is not only delicious but also filling, making it a favorite in the wasteland world.
It wouldn't be wrong to call it a signature dish of Longcheng.
"Okay, give us one each," Hou Ji said, licking his lips.
As they spoke, they took out energy stones and bought one for each person.
A corn cob as thick as an arm only costs one hundred energy stones! That's incredibly cheap!
The Lord of Dragon City is indeed a good person!
Thinking of this, Hou Ji became even more determined to trade more items with Longcheng.
"Mmm, it's so delicious!"
Having received a fragrant ear of corn, Yang Man licked her pink tongue and took a bite.
The moment she took the first bite, her eyes lit up with delight.
The corn was fragrant, sweet, and soft; it was the most delicious food she had ever eaten.
If I could eat an ear of corn every day, I'd probably wake up laughing in my dreams.
"Dragon City has such delicious food? If only I could buy more to take back to Beast City..."
Unlike the food-loving girl with horned ears, Hou Ji, as a city lord, was also captivated by the delicious corn, but he was more concerned about whether he could buy more to take back to his people.
"of course can!"
Hearing Hou Ji's words, Hong Lian said from the side, "If you want to take them back, we can help you pack them."
"Thank you so much!" Hou Ji said gratefully.
Having received confirmation from Honglian, he immediately waved his hand and bought one hundred.
I'll take some back for everyone to try first.
"After eating the corn, a cold drink will make you feel even better!" Seeing the three of them with their mouths full of corn kernels and no regard for their image, June covered her mouth and laughed, pointing to the newly opened cold drink shop not far away and reminding them.
“Yes! Now that we’re in Dragon City, we definitely have to give it a try!” Sixi and Qisha nodded in agreement.
Xiao Yu and Hong Lian were the first to try Xing Lan's newly developed beverages and ice cream.
The three of them, along with Chu Ling Shuang, were in the second wave of trying it, and they instantly fell in love with it after eating it.
"Okay, thank you. Let's give it a try."
Upon hearing this, Hou Ji looked in the direction the three women were pointing and his eyes lit up.
There was a clean and tidy shop, and a beautiful young woman in a light blue dress was busy working inside.
"Cold drinks? What are we waiting for?" Upon hearing that there were also delicious foods and drinks, the girl with ram's horns immediately ran over excitedly and peered out from the entrance of the cold drink shop.
The daytime temperatures in the Beast Mountain Range are indeed very high.
It would be so refreshing to have a cold drink.
A moment later, inside Xinglan's newly opened fruit drink shop.
"Shii! Shii!"
Besides the owner, Xinglan, the only employee at the newly opened fruit drink shop is Slime.
Upon seeing a customer enter, the little creature stood on the counter, waving its tentacles and calling out.
Wow! What an adorable little guy!
The slime's crisp, soft, and adorable squeal was like a sudden, overwhelming blow, instantly melting the horned girl's heart. She pounced on it, hugged the little creature tightly, and rubbed it against her face. Feeling its smooth texture, the girl liked it even more.
This adorable little guy is practically a mascot.
