Someone curiously took the animal hide from her hand and examined it closely.
"It's genuine animal hide!"
He bent down and sniffed: "Hey, it smells pretty good!"
Upon hearing this, everyone took a sniff and, sure enough, there was no unpleasant smell at all; instead, it carried a faint fragrance of herbs and trees.
You should know that they usually wash with plain water, and even soap pods are very rare. After all, there are too many people in Yunmengze, and soap pods are something you only use when you come across them.
Animal hides washed with water always have a greasy smell, and even adding wood ash won't make them as clean.
Sometimes, even the finest animal hides can't be worn for long before they have to be thrown away, which is a real shame.
How much is this?
Mu Youran smiled and held up one finger.
"One seashell costs two yuan. If you buy enough pottery with twenty seashells, you'll get two free."
Upon hearing the price, everyone's minds immediately began to race.
This is a pretty good deal, you can get two pieces for one seashell.
They had just seen it clearly: the female had only used a tiny bit of soap to wash that piece of hide. It was such a large piece; if she used it sparingly, it would last a long time.
Four pieces can last a whole year, which saves a lot of animal hides.
Moreover, you can also take a shower and wash your hair; it seems like a great deal no matter how you look at it.
If you buy pottery, it's even more cost-effective if it's given away for free.
This thing is much more affordable than a ceramic cup, since you can use a bamboo cup instead of a ceramic cup, but there is no substitute for soap!
"I want two earthenware pots, and give me a large bar of soap!"
Then an orc spoke up.
Mu Youran smiled broadly; it's opening so soon.
"Don't worry, all our soaps are the same size; there are no cases of them being different sizes."
Luo Bai picked up four bars of soap, put them in the pot, handed the items over, and Ying Yao was in charge of collecting the money.
Xiaomei manages the soap, Qingshan and the others help with shipping, and the others are responsible for guard duty; everyone works in an orderly manner.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of them were sold.
Xiaomei stared in astonishment at the soap in front of her that had suddenly lost a corner.
"The orcs of Yunmengze are so rich! They buy pottery by the several pieces at a time!"
"Unlike us, we can't even save enough in a year to buy a piece of pottery."
The last time she came here was for the winter trade fair. She thought it was understandable that so many people bought things then, since many orcs only come out once a year.
The seashells that came out to buy pottery must have been collected for a long time.
But things are different now.
They sell their wares during their spare time, and most of them are original residents who live here.
Aoyama also sighed, "That's right, if I earned that many seashells a year, I'd be laughing in my sleep."
Mu Youran patted the dust off her hands: "What's the big deal? They live in there, they're much better informed than us, so naturally they know more ways to make money than we do."
"You know, this is Yunmengze, a distribution center for many goods."
Ying Yao and Luo Bai had always known that Yunmengze was very prosperous, but they didn't know why it was so prosperous or what made it so prosperous.
Hearing You Ran say that, he instantly understood.
Ying Yao pondered for a moment: "So, this place is so prosperous because it is a gathering place for orcs from all directions."
Mu Youran nodded, but the prosperity of a city is not solely due to its people. After all, to retain people, one must consider the city's productivity.
It's not something that can be explained in just a sentence or two.
"You could say that."
Upon hearing this answer, Ying Yao's mind instantly cleared.
So, the reason why the Eagle Clan, despite their consistently strong fighting power, often struggles to even meet their basic needs, is because, unlike the Sunset Tribe, they don't accept other orcs.
If they were like the Sunset Tribe, open to all kinds of beastmen and accepting of all forms of beastmen, perhaps their Eagle Clan could have a much better life than the Sunset Tribe!
No more worrying about the number of females, no more coming here to pay high prices to buy females.
"Hey, do you still have any pottery? I'll take it all!"
Suddenly, an orc with an eight-pointed beard and dressed in linen clothes rushed over.
