"These are the goods from those few stalls, and the taste is really top-notch,"
"Our people waited in line for a long ti to get these."
"There are still quite a few people gathered around there!"
"Every item has sold like crazy."
"..."
A few officials spoke, emotions tinged with a touch of sentint.
When they heard sothing good had erged in their territory, they had imdiately gone to find out about it.
Originally thinking what good things could a village possibly produce, they were surprised to actually find so.
The taste of these foods was truly unprecedented for them.
While talking, they also hurriedly had their companions taste the delights.
Sure enough, the other officials at the scene each took a bite, and after finishing, their gazes beca several degrees more fervent unconsciously.
"Indeed, it’s delicious."
"If we can get our hands on the recipe for these foods, then we could definitely beco famous for our delicacies in Sorrel Town. We might even create another Capital of Gourt."
"..."
So officials couldn’t help but grow excited thinking about it, a unique product was indispensable for a territory’s rapid developnt.
Their small town’s developnt was also fairly decent, by the book.
But as mbers of the territory, how could they not have ambitions for their city! They wanted to expand their own domain too!
As long as their territory had enough products to sustain, given ti, their territory could surely reach a new level.
"However, it’s not so easy to get the recipe."
"We can just buy it from them or even offer them official positions. I believe, with a chance to change their personal and family fortunes in front of them, they would be willing," one official said without a second thought. Forceful seizing was possible, but that was not a long-term strategy; making the other party willing was the best approach.
"Hmm." Having decided on a course of action, the group planned to find an opportunity to invite the sellers for a talk.
This wait lasted until the afternoon.
"Sorry, but our goods are all sold out. If you want to buy any, you’ll have to wait until next ti."
"We’ll definitely prepare more next ti."
"We will co again for sure."
"..."
Stall owners at various stalls were soothing so custors who hadn’t managed to buy in ti.
Even they themselves didn’t expect that the goods would sell out so quickly.
They had prepared what they thought was plenty, hoping to sell for a few days before restocking, yet they didn’t expect to sell out in just half a day.
Of course, they were mostly happy.
With all the goods sold out, they made quite a profit!
Once they headed back to their territory and made another trip to Hope Village, they would make another good sum!
The money they made was much more than what they earned from their usual work.
The onlooking residents of Sorrel Town heard there was no stock left, each feeling a bit of regret.
Many were still inquiring.
"How did you make these delicacies?"
"Where can one buy all these powdered ingredients?"
"And these carts that you use for your stalls, I feel like I haven’t seen them before."
"These are all new things!"
"Is it what you call Hope Village? Where is Hope Village? Is it near us?"
"..."
These people were clearly probing for secrets.
But it was only natural human behavior; confronted with such wonderful items, it would be strange if they were not interested.
The sour and spicy noodle stall owners hesitated a bit when asked. They didn’t know if they should answer, as surely this wouldn’t be a secret in the future, but for now, it was their livelihood. If they just gave it away, what would they do if a slew of competitors erged?
They didn’t plan to keep it to themselves for too long, after all, many in their territory already knew!
They just wanted to earn for one more day, make one more transaction.
"This is soone’s secret, their livelihood, why do you ask such questions?" soone in the crowd spoke up.
Instantly, it changed the expressions of many people there.
At that mont, a soldier team also approached the sour and spicy noodle stall owners.
After pushing through the crowd, they went straight to them, "Co with us, so important people want to see you."
The sour and spicy noodle stall owner: "..."
The onlooking crowd: "..."
Soon, the whole group was led away.
"Their goods have caught the attention of those big shots in the territory."
"Does that an they are going to be taken away?"
"They shouldn’t, right! If they really took them away, who would dare bring good things to our territory in the future?"
"Don’t worry! Our Sorrel Town wouldn’t do such a thing."
"It’s most likely just getting to know the situation."
"Let’s wait and see!"
"Now that I think about it, the na Hope Village does seem a bit familiar."
