Chapter 65: Urban Transformation

As the vast caravan emerged from Crimson Territory, there were already many people waiting outside.

From afar, they could hear excited voices, "They're back, they're back!"

The days without Snowflake Salt were truly agonizing. People waited day and night just for this moment, waiting for the brave caravans to return from Crimson Territory.

To be honest, because Crimson City was blocked by endless deserts, although there were maps, no one knew what the situation was like inside. Who knew if the people of Crimson City were a bunch of bandits? Bringing goods in, they might just be robbed by the people of Crimson City, and they might not even make it out alive.

This situation was very likely to happen, after all, it was said that Crimson City was extremely poor to the point where when they saw goods, they had to grab them.

So it was said that these caravans were truly brave. They entered Crimson Territory on impulse.

"Look, their beasts are laden with goods."

"Quick, see if they're carrying Snowflake Salt."

"It's all in packages, can't see clearly."

The entire area bordering Crimson Territory was bustling with activity. The louder the voices, the more people it attracted, and many Tribes rushed over upon hearing the news.

Everyone had almost the same expression, stretching their necks to look, eyes unblinking.

"We need to get some salt, otherwise these days will be unbearable."

"Exactly, the meat in the Tribe is just sitting there, hardly anyone's eating it, and everyone's getting thinner."

"And, the salt from Crimson City has another advantage. Eating it gives you strength, unlike rock salt, which can cause strange effects if eaten in excess."

The human body cannot lack salt. In the past, people licked salt rocks, but they didn't dare to lick too much because they contained various harmful minerals that were bad for the body.

But Snowflake Salt was different. All the harmful minerals had been filtered out, allowing them to eat as much salt as their bodies needed.

Amidst the sandstorms of Crimson Territory, the beasts emerged, and the dusty merchants looked very bad, but every one of them had a satisfied smile on their face. They had exchanged for what they wanted, and even exceeded their expectations.

Just as they walked out, suddenly a large group of people surrounded them, startling them.

However, these people dared to enter the harsh environment of Crimson Territory, so they weren't timid.

Just as they were about to ask what was going on, the people surrounding them shouted loudly, "Did you exchange for Snowflake Salt? Exchange some for us quickly."

Without the merchants needing to call out, these people actively came to exchange for Snowflake Salt.

"Weren't you robbed by the people of Crimson City?"

"Look at your beasts laden with goods, you must have exchanged, right?"

The merchants, covered in sand, grinned. "The people of Crimson City are fierce, but they didn't rob us. Our transactions with them are similar to usual, but they specifically set up a market for us to trade."

"Tsk tsk, let me tell you, that market is extraordinary..."

Before the conversation could finish, it was interrupted. "We don't care about your market. We just want Snowflake Salt."
