With such intelligence, it's no wonder that the Ice Dwarves have always been economically better off than the native inhabitants of other planets.
For example, the Notta clan.
Although they were not the original inhabitants of the planet Mando, they have lived there for generations since their ancestors moved there.
They are more cautious than the snow dwarves.
They rarely appear in public and are better at hiding themselves.
"Hello, beautiful lady."
The little dwarf was quite the gentleman; he even took off his pointed hat and gave a polite bow.
"Visiting our Heavenly Lake only costs 50 Star Coins, but entering the Heavenly Lake requires 100 Star Coins."
The price was really reasonable, and Ling Miao readily paid, while the people behind her quickly came up to pay as well.
She had just taken a step when she remembered something, and turned her head to look at the tiny ice dwarf.
How do you know the customer traffic?
The other party seemed to be used to this question, and calmly took out a small controller from his hand.
The numbers displayed on it were very clear, and Ling Miao guessed that this might be the number of tourists who entered the Tianchi scenic area.
Before she could even ask, the remote control in the ice dwarf's hand lit up, and a huge halo of light rose up in the distance, appearing and disappearing.
"Once enough people have entered, this light circle will automatically form a barrier, preventing further entry."
So that's how it is.
No wonder the other party would "drip" on each person's Star Brain after I handed over the Star Coins; it was as a mark.
Luckily they arrived early enough, otherwise they would have made a wasted trip.
Ling Miao turned away from the thought and began to look around with great interest.
Upon closer inspection, all the lakes, large and small, were shrouded in warm, white mist.
The bottom is covered with various minerals and chemicals, and even stones of different colors.
Those small stones weren't native to Tianchi Lake; they were placed there by the Ice and Snow Dwarves for aesthetic purposes.
This increases color contrast under sunlight refraction, making it look more vibrant and beautiful.
It must be said that their family has a very good business sense.
Ling Miao sighed again, having looked around at all the large and small Heavenly Pools. She even squatted down and touched the surface of the water with her hand.
Warm air quickly rushed onto her entire face, while the hot liquid shot upwards from her fingertips.
Ling Miao then realized that she was still wearing thermal underwear. While it was warm in the low temperatures at the foot of the mountain, it felt a bit too hot at the top of the mountain where there were hot springs.
However, the high-tech products of the interstellar era are not so simplistic. Sensing the temperature change, the thermal clothing quickly began to adjust to a suitable temperature, and the heat that had risen around Ling Miao quickly subsided in no time.
"Want to go for a soak now?"
Eileen happily offered her suggestion.
She gazed at the warm spring water, the minerals at the bottom, and the sulfides radiating and refracting iridescent light, and felt a surge of anticipation.
"But this is outdoors."
Ling Miao hesitated for a moment. They had paid 100 star coins when they came in, which allowed them to soak in the hot spring.
However, she was still somewhat uncomfortable in this completely open-air environment.
“There are specially built shelters over there.”
Upon hearing this, Eileen quickly pointed, and looking in the direction she was pointing, she indeed saw rows of small houses on the other side.
Interestingly, these houses also resemble an inverted bowl, much like the igloos Ling Miao saw at the foot of the mountain.
It wouldn't be unusual for an igloo to appear on a vast, white, snow-covered landscape, but it looks quite strange to see igloos carved from ice and snow when surrounded by green grass and lush vegetation.
With a hint of amusement in her mind, Ling Miao walked towards the igloo.
Sure enough, it was not much different from the temporary accommodation arranged by the director at the foot of the mountain. It was small but complete, and even had plenty of drinks and fruits.
Since arriving in interstellar space, Ling Miao has been busy making delicious food and has rarely paid attention to fruits. Apart from the durian she had at the beginning, other fruits are rarely seen.
This has caused her to feel a little disoriented when she sees these familiar yet unfamiliar fruits.
There were some fruits she recognized, but also some that looked rather strange.
She wasn't quite sure.
Curious, she reached out and picked up a brightly colored fruit.
It feels heavy, somewhat like an apple.
However, the skin is bright red, even redder than a tomato.
"This is a galangal fruit."
Ling Miao looked at the strange fruit she had never seen before with curiosity.
Even the name is strange and unusual, unlike the simple and catchy names that people use in modern speech. Instead, it sounds like the names people used in ancient times.
"It's slightly sweet, but very juicy."
Fan Youyou said from the side, reaching out to pick up a fruit and taking a bite without hesitation.
Sure enough, through the bite mark, you could see the slightly yellow flesh, and plenty of juice flowed down the edge.
Fan Youyou casually grabbed a tissue and wiped the juice that had dripped all over her palm.
Ling Miao was also curious about its taste, so she opened her mouth and took a bite without hesitation.
Surprisingly, it was even sweeter than Fan Youyou described as slightly sweet; its sweetness was somewhat like that of refreshing sugarcane juice.
However, it doesn't entirely lean towards the sweetness of sugarcane because its water is more transparent and clear. When it lands on the tip of the tongue, it has a wonderful taste and is very thirst-quenching.
It's very juicy, and the texture is somewhat similar to the snow lotus fruit I ate in my past life.
However, its skin is not as thick as that of the snow lotus fruit; instead, it is very thin. It curls up almost instantly when the teeth break it open, and is swallowed along with the pulp as it turns into juice.
Ling Miao couldn't quite describe the taste, but undeniably, the fruit was incredibly juicy, and its size was about the same as a regular apple. After eating one, she didn't need to drink any more water.
"Shall we soak in the hot springs now?"
Eileen was eager to try, her eyes shining as she looked at the others present.
The live-streaming hovering ball was still flying around and filming openly. Ling Miao glanced at it and then looked away. She wasn't worried; the live-streaming hovering ball could be turned off when it came to the privacy of the guests.
"Let's go next door!"
William was quite perceptive, and even seemed a little eager to try.
Since participating in this variety show, he feels that he is not there to gain fans or promote himself, but rather that he is truly on vacation. Just like the name of the variety show, he enjoys the joy of travel and the troubles of food every moment.
When you're in a good mood, your body is healthy, and you eat well, you're naturally going to gain weight.
He felt a little guilty and secretly pinched the flesh on his stomach before letting out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he only gained a little weight. He'll have to work hard to lose weight when he gets back.
