Chapter 344 - 320: Xuanfeng Fine Salt? Xuanfeng Essence? What Are These?
Chapter 344: Chapter 320: Xuanfeng Fine Salt? Xuanfeng Essence? What Are These?
As the plane descended for landing.
Huang City’s excitement grew.
He had finally arrived in the Xuanfeng Alliance.
Inside the plane, everyone was looking out the windows with curiosity and anticipation, watching the airport draw nearer and nearer.
The plane touched down and the cabin door opened.
Like everyone else on board, Huang City eagerly rushed out of the aircraft.
The moment he set foot in the Xuanfeng Alliance, Huang City and the other men traveling with him were captivated by the airport staff.
Due to the Xuanfeng Alliance’s gender ratio, all the airport jobs were held by women.
And with the opening of tourism, Baguda had also arranged for the beautiful winners of beauty pageants to work at the airport as guides, salespeople, information staff, and so on.
Most of them, of course, were simply posted at their stations, serving as eye candy for the tourists.
The intention behind Huang City and the others already taking out their phones to film was self-evident.
"That one is gorgeous!"
"This one has a better figure. It’s perfect."
"That sales guide is a total knockout!"
"..."
After getting off the plane, the group of men openly expressed their excitement.
After all, their reason for coming here was just as obvious.
This, however, drew the ire of the female passengers who had flown over with them.
’What a bunch of horny guys.’
’It’s like they’ve never seen a woman before.’
Of course, what truly annoyed them was how they had been completely ignored during the entire trip.
Previously, no matter where they went, they were never short of men trying to hit on them.
It was clear that the women who had the spare cash to travel to the Xuanfeng Alliance for facial masks at this time were almost all well-off and confident.
They were used to being the center of attention, surrounded by men.
This journey had been a harsh reality check for them.
Huang City also scanned the beautiful women at the airport, but none could compare to his beloved Wuya.
What Huang City and the others didn’t know, however, was that the beautiful women on duty were also scanning their group of men, sometimes with disappointment, sometimes shaking their heads.
Their purpose was equally obvious.
The Governor’s Mansion had said that if they took a liking to any man, as long as he was single, they could pursue him. If they could convince him to stay and work in the Xuanfeng Alliance, there would be a reward.
If they could get him to immigrate and marry them, the reward would be even greater.
But for them, the reward wasn’t the important part. What mattered was that they could finally choose men freely.
They were truly spoiled for choice now. If they found someone they genuinely liked, they would do whatever it took to make him stay.
Huang City quickly left the airport.
He had booked a hotel and hailed a taxi.
"Sir, where are you headed?"
As soon as he got in the car, Huang City heard the driver’s incredibly sweet voice. Using the Qingfeng Intelligent Assistant Software, he understood what she was saying.
What surprised him, however, was that the driver was an exceptionally sweet and beautiful girl.
Although not as stunning as Wuya and the other beauties, back in his home country, she was the type who could demand a house, a car, and a bride price.
’Oh my god...’
Back home, female taxi drivers weren’t uncommon, but they were all much older. Where would you ever see a young, beautiful, well-built female taxi driver like this?
Huang City looked out the window and noticed quite a few young women working as taxi drivers.
It seemed the online rumors were true. The Xuanfeng Alliance, formerly Cambodia, must have suffered from years of chaotic warfare that killed too many men, leading to this situation.
This made Huang City’s heart burn with excitement.
’With my profession as a rectangular solid object directional movement engineer and so many years of experience, how hard could it be to find a job?’
Passing a street with a construction site, his eyes burned with passion. He’d look for a chance to apply for a job at a site like that.
Huang City didn’t notice that the female driver was also observing him in the rearview mirror, and as she watched, she couldn’t help but shake her head.
She clearly wasn’t interested.
Of course, she wasn’t just driving a taxi for the sake of it.
Her father had heard the news long ago that many people would be coming here as tourists. So, he had her drive a taxi to meet lots of them, hoping she might find a suitable husband.
Moreover, her father owned two buildings that had recently appreciated in value very quickly. As long as she got married, she could have one of them as her dowry.
The driver quickly returned her focus to the road. This tourist had rough, dark skin and was far less appealing than the others she had picked up. She didn’t even have the interest to add him on the Qingfeng Assistant.
The Qingfeng Intelligent Assistant Software had long since launched a friend chat function, similar to Penguin’s.
Back in his home country, due to brand loyalty, it couldn’t compete with Penguin for now. But in the Xuanfeng Alliance, everyone used the Qingfeng Intelligent Assistant to add contacts, not WeChat.
After QR code payments became popular in the Xuanfeng Alliance, most people also used the Qingfeng Intelligent Assistant to pay, and even tourists from his country had to follow the local custom.
Her own Intelligent Assistant already had a few cute guys from Dragon Country added as friends.
But Huang City had no idea he’d already been rejected by a female taxi driver.
His mind was completely filled with thoughts of Wuya.
In the car, he took out his phone again and started scrolling through short videos from his home country.
Wuya’s popularity was even higher now.
This made him feel even more anxious. After dropping off his luggage at the hotel, he immediately hailed another taxi to a scenic area called Blue Star Bay.
His beloved Wuya was there.
Unexpectedly, this driver was also a young woman. Her looks and figure were far worse than Wuya’s, and a bit worse than the previous driver’s too.
While Huang City was having these thoughts, he didn’t notice this driver also looking at him in the rearview mirror, then shaking her head.
Clearly, she had rejected him too.
Unaware of any of this, Huang City arrived at Blue Star Bay and excitedly bought a ticket to enter the scenic area.
At the entrance, he saw a few women collecting Xuanfeng Facial Mask redemption vouchers. They were probably women from his country.
After entering the scenic area, he finally saw the Wuya he had been dreaming of. But he was dumbfounded by the sight: a handsome young man was kneeling on one knee before her, holding a large bouquet of roses, clearly proposing his love.
The man was speaking the language of Dragon Country; he was from back home too.
The crucial part was, by the time he arrived, Wuya had already nestled into the handsome young man’s embrace.
In that instant, Huang City felt like his heart had been broken. He was on the verge of a breakdown.
Sounds of envy rose from the crowd:
"Ah, the goddess Wuya is taken! I’m so sad!"
"I heard this handsome guy rushed here from our country and pursued Wuya for two straight days!"
"Two days..."
"I heard he’s an entrepreneur who started his own business. His parents have passed away, and he has a few million in savings."
"I heard he’s already planning to move his company to the Xuanfeng Alliance and settle down here for Wuya!"
"..."
Each piece of information made countless people sigh, including Huang City.
They seemed to have a sudden realization.
Even if the Xuanfeng Alliance had more women than men, and women were worried about getting married, with so many men flocking in from their own country and even others, the competition would still be fierce.
Even if there was no bride price required, it would invisibly become a competition of a man’s capabilities.
Take this guy, for example. He was already handsome, and on top of that, he had millions in savings and his own damn company.
How could anyone compete with him?
Huang City was heartbroken. He felt his identity as a "rectangular solid object directional movement engineer" was completely worthless.
Just then, a woman who looked to be in her thirties and weighed about 80 kilograms walked over, holding up a sign.
Huang City used the Qingfeng Intelligent Software to read the sign:
"Seeking a husband. Own a manor and a hotel. Father is the Xuanfeng Alliance’s Minister of Agriculture. Monthly allowance of 100,000 Dragon Country currency. Requirement: must be well-endowed. Three-day trial marriage, get a certificate if compatible!"
The contents of the sign stunned Huang City and the others.
When he first saw the words "Seeking a husband," Huang City wanted to scoff. ’An 80-kilogram woman looking for a husband? Who would be that blind?’
But after seeing the rest of the sign, he raised his hand almost instinctively.
He subconsciously thought of Chen Hao, the man who married the Minister of Finance’s daughter and became a prison warden.
The only difference was that Chen Hao’s wife was young, beautiful, and had a great figure, while this woman was 80 kilograms.
But marrying her would also be a path to the pinnacle of life. For someone like him, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The moment Huang City raised his hand, he was shocked to find that two rows of men had already raised their hands in front of him. The 80-kilogram woman merely glanced at him before looking at the others.
"..." Huang City was dealt another blow.
He suddenly realized that things weren’t as he had imagined.
’Marrying a beauty like Wuya seems impossible.’
’Maybe I should lower my standards?’
’Those two female taxi drivers weren’t bad either. Back home, they were in a league I could never hope to pursue.’
With that thought, Huang City felt his motivation return. He was feeling a bit hungry and looked for something to eat, only to find that the scenic area didn’t sell food. It did, however, have a self-service cooking area.
For a small fee, you could rent a stove, a barbecue grill, and some ingredients.
Huang City actually knew how to cook a little. After all, being single and working on construction sites, he always had to cook for himself.
But when he got to the stove and received the ingredients, he was a little surprised.
Special Xuanfeng Essence!
Special Xuanfeng Fine Salt!
Special Xuanfeng Sauce!
’Does the Xuanfeng Alliance produce this stuff themselves?’
Not just Huang City, but many tourists from his country noticed this as well. There was nothing strange about essence or salt, but adding the word "special" made it intriguing.
"Miss, is this Special Xuanfeng Essence produced by the Xuanfeng Alliance itself?" a tourist asked.
The staff member, also a beautiful woman, nodded and replied, "Yes, it is. If any of you want to buy some to take home, you can. It’s only 500 Dragon Country currency for one jin!"
After understanding the translation, the tourists from Dragon Country, Huang City included, all burst into an uproar.
’Are you kidding me?’
’One jin of fine salt costs 500 currency?’
You have to understand, back home, even major brands of salt only cost about 10 currency per jin. This was 50 times more expensive!
For a moment, everyone suspected that the Xuanfeng Alliance was running a tourist-trap scam.
Someone was even scared enough to ask directly, "Miss, the portion you’re giving us to use here is free, right?"
"That’s right," the staff member explained.
Someone, still worried, even recorded her words.
Otherwise, this tourist-trap scam would be too vicious.
As long as this part was free, it was fine. They weren’t idiots. They just wouldn’t buy the essence and fine salt later, so they wouldn’t lose anything.
