After relying on the motherland, my supermarket has become more and more prosperous.

Seeing Ruoshui enter the barrier, nothing unexpected happened and she got along well with Jiang Wanwan.

Chi Hua, who was guarding outside, had originally relaxed his vigilance.

However, Ruoshui's sudden exclamation immediately broke the harmonious atmosphere.

"what happened?"

Chi Hua and Jiang Wanwan asked the same question in unison.

Jiang Wanwan was puzzled. She even wondered if there was a needle on the bun.

Or is it that mermaids are so valuable that even the system can't help but take action?

Jiang Wanwan suspected that the person who made the buns was careless, and even suspected that the system had bad intentions.

But I never expected that the reason for the other party's exclamation would be so bizarre.

"This... this bun is hot, just like the terrible magma on the seabed!" Ruoshui pointed at the bun with a look of horror and spoke with some stammering.

Hearing this, Chihua thought about it seriously for a moment before speaking uncertainly.

"My mother seemed to have said that humans are fragile and need to eat hot food every day!"

Ok!

After hearing this, Jiang Wanwan completely understood.

This mermaid tribe should have little contact with humans. At least these little mermaids have never had contact with humans, and most of the information they have heard is from their elders.

So, I could only explain patiently and softly.

"This is called a steamed bun. It tastes better when it's hot. Don't worry, it won't hurt you. Look, I'm fine even if I hold it!"

After listening to the arguments of the two people in succession, Ruoshui was still a little skeptical and reached out hesitantly.

After discovering that although the buns were hot in her hands, they did not really cause her any harm.

Ruoshui then tried it and brought it to her lips and took a small bite.

After chewing it carefully twice and tasting the flavor, Ruoshui's eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's delicious, better than any other fish I've ever eaten. It has a sweet and fragrant flavor!"

This is delicious?

I just took a bite of the bun skin and haven’t eaten the filling yet!

"You can take another bite, the inside tastes better!" Jiang Wanwan suggested with a smile.

Better than what you just tasted?

Ruoshui immediately did as she was told and took a big bite.

Suddenly, the bun skin and beef, mixed with the slightly hot juice, entered the mouth together.

"So hot!"

Ruoshui opened her mouth and exhaled, but was reluctant to spit it out.

Jiang Wanwan didn't expect the other party to take such a big bite, and immediately said anxiously.

"Don't burn your tongue, or spit it out!"

Mermaids have always lived in water, so they should be more afraid of heat than humans, right?

Hearing this, Ruoshui simply closed her mouth and chewed and tasted it stubbornly.

But the slightly hot feeling from the tip of her tongue made her eyes red physically.

Finally, a tear flowed from his left eye socket and slid down his cheek.

Jiang Wanwan watched all this, tears streaming down her face.

In just three seconds, the transparent tears turned into pure white solid pearls.

Finally, the pearl fell to the ground quickly and bounced a few times before it came to rest.

Pearls! Pearls!

The tears of mermaids can actually turn into pearls!

Moreover, this legendary magical scene happened right before her eyes!

Everything is as false as imagination, making people feel like they are in a dream.

After the shock, Jiang Wanwan subconsciously squatted down, picked up the pearls that fell on the ground, and examined them carefully.

The pearl is the size of a thumb, round and white, without a single flaw.

The most important thing is that it lay in the palm of Jiang Wanwan's hand, emitting a bright milky white light, as dazzling as the stars and the moon in the dark night.

Unlike those deceptive glowing fluorites, the light emitted by the pearl in front of you is so soft yet dazzling.

Just one look at it and you'll know it's extraordinary!

Jiang Wanwan, who has traveled through several worlds and gained a lot of experience, is still obsessed with the pearl in her hand as she looks at it.

It wasn't until she heard Ruoshui's voice that she finally came to her senses.

"The stuff in here is really delicious, even better than the white stuff outside. It feels a bit like fish, but different. What is it?"

"The white outside is made of flour, and the filling inside is beef!" Jiang Wanwan said carefully.

"Beef? Cow meat? But my mother told me that cows are very important to humans and that you'll be arrested if you kill them."

Ruoshui said this doubtfully, then took another big bite of the bun.

Killing a cow and getting arrested? This must be something that only happened in ancient times, right?

So, the land is still in the feudal era?

Jiang Wanwan explained casually while analyzing the useful information in her mind.

"Of course you can't kill a good cow. I'm an injured cow. I can't survive. I can only be killed and eaten!"

After hearing this explanation, Ruoshui immediately believed it and nodded.

"Beef is so delicious, you should raise more cows so you can have more beef to eat!"

As he said this, he stuffed the last bit of bun in his hand into his mouth, squinting his eyes in satisfaction as he enjoyed the delicious food.

Jiang Wanwan nodded repeatedly, then handed the pearl in her hand over.

"The pearl you just dropped!"

The pearls were very beautiful, and Jiang Wanwan felt a little reluctant when she handed them over.

But she believed that as long as she could gain the trust of the mermaids, she would definitely have such pearls in the future.

"I heard that humans really like shark pearls. Besides being used as decorations, they can also be ground into powder to strengthen the body and beautify the skin. I'll give this one to you. Thank you for the buns you just gave me."

Ruoshui waved her hand casually and spoke very generously, then remembered something and added.

"By the way, my name is Ruoshui. After we exchanged names, we became friends."

Such a generous friend?

After listening to Ruoshui talk about the benefits of the mermaid pearl, Jiang Wanwan liked this little thing in her hand even more.

Since the other party was seeing her off, she wouldn't be pretentious.

"Thank you so much, Ruoshui. I'll give you two more buns so your friend waiting outside can have some too!"

After putting away the mermaid pearl in her hand, Jiang Wanwan picked up two buns from the shelf and handed them over.

Reciprocity is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation.

Ruoshui had no intention of refusing and happily took the two buns.

Knowing how delicious buns are, she is no longer afraid of the slightly hot touch of the buns.

Ruoshui is a generous person. Since she has two buns in her hand, she is willing to give one to Chihua even if Jiang Wanwan doesn't say it.

I saw the other person holding a bun in each hand, slowly moving his big tail, walking towards the supermarket entrance.

Jiang Wanwan quickly stopped him and said, "Wait, these buns won't taste good if they come into contact with sea water. Why don't you invite your friends in to eat?"

When Ruoshui heard that buns would become unpalatable after coming into contact with sea water, she stopped immediately.

"Then Chihua, come in and eat! This bun is delicious!"

However, Chihua's caution made him hesitate.

Seeing this, Jiang Wanwan was not angry, but suggested with a smile.

"Actually, you don't have to come in all at once. Just poke your head in and finish your buns!"

Ruoshui's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she nodded repeatedly, "Yes, this way we can have the best of both worlds!"

Having said that, he moved back towards the supermarket entrance.
