Kai hurriedly shook his head, immediately explaining, “Shaman, it’s not like that, this really tastes mind-blowingly good.”

“Shaman, Chieftain, you should both try it. I guarantee you’ll like it.” Kuang supplemented.

Shaman Lei Yun furrowed his brow, seriously examining that wine jar.

He took the wine they had poured and began drinking, the Chieftain similarly closing his eyes and starting to drink.

Before the wine even entered their throats, they could already smell the rich wine fragrance, intoxicating them completely.

“This taste. It is truly deep, profound and of great excellence. Is this really made from water?” Shaman Lei Yun marvelled.

His mouth and throat were now filled with the taste of this wheat wine. Though the sensation when it entered his throat was not particularly comfortable, the final feeling was quite pleasant, with a subtle astringent taste.

Moreover, there was a flavour they could not identify, which was the rich wheat fragrance.

“What exactly is this made from? I’ve never heard of such a thing,” Shan asked repeatedly.

He was captivated by this marvellous taste, which was even more special than drinking water.

Originally, he had intended to reproach them for spending too much dried meat exchanging for this water.

Who would have thought that after tasting it, he would genuinely appreciate it. It was indeed worth that much dried meat.

“I don’t know what it’s made from either. It’s just that many people were scrambling for this thing at the time, and after we tried the taste, we were more than satisfied.” Kai paused for a moment before continuing, “We didn’t expect the taste to be so peerless, so we exchanged for these without hesitation.”

“But you didn’t exchange for much. Just this little amount will be finished in a few days.” Shan furrowed his brow.

This transformation was truly astonishing. The previous second he had been extraordinarily disdainful, even saying they should bear the losses themselves. The next second he was saying this thing was so good that such a small quantity was not nearly enough.

“It doesn’t matter. If we need more, we’ll just go again.” Kai immediately said.

He could not wait to make another trip to the Flame Dragon Tribe, feeling that place was truly special.

The Flame Dragon Tribe had many wonderful things worth yearning for. The next visit would surely be different.

“Besides these, are there other things?” Shaman Lei Yun asked curiously.

He had already begun developing curiosity about the Flame Dragon Tribe, wanting to know what other good things that Tribe possessed.

“Besides perfume and wine, we also brought back something particularly magical.” Kai immediately retrieved another item from his bag, explaining, “This is also a special item from the Flame Dragon Tribe, called linen.”

“Didn’t we have linen before? What’s so special about it?” Shaman Lei Yun questioned doubtfully.

He remembered previously exchanging some linen from the Flame Dragon Tribe. Those had indeed been of excellent quality.

“It’s different. This time, their linen is different.” Kai shook his head repeatedly, his face full of excitement as he continued, “This time’s linen comes in different colours.”

Indeed, the last time the Flame Dragon Tribe had mentioned dyeing fabric, they had already started, also beginning to display it at the Central Market for people to trade for.

“Linen can have different colours?” Shan fell into confusion once more.

He had never heard of linen having other colours. Originally, linen was already extremely rare.

Now they were saying there was linen in other colours? This was truly somewhat incomprehensible, wasn’t it?

“Father, Shaman, it’s this.”

Kai handed over a bundle of brown and pink linen, explaining, “Only the Flame Dragon Tribe has this.”

When he had first seen this coloured linen, his eyes had widened enormously.

Thinking such special linen absolutely had to be traded for and brought back, linen was what he had traded for in the greatest quantity.

“There truly are other colours. How is this achieved?” Shaman Lei Yun’s eyes widened.

The more he looked, the less he understood. Living this long, strange things kept appearing. There were not just one or two types. Suddenly, there were so many varieties, all things he could not explain.

Things like perfume and wine truly astonished people enormously. Living this long, he still could not explain these things. He could not help feeling somewhat defeated internally, feeling he had lived this long in vain.

“I don’t know either. When I asked the people there, they all refused to say.” Kai shook his head, continuing, “They only said this was the Flame Dragon Tribe’s trump card, they wouldn’t easily let others know.”

When he had seen this coloured fabric at the Central Market, he had already asked the shop manager there.

However, all the responses he received were that they did not know, which made him somewhat restless with curiosity.

To figure out how these things were made, he had even secretly listened to others’ conversations.

Of course, as if he could hear anything. After all, even the shop manager did not know how the coloured fabric was made.

“This is truly magical. These colours look truly beautiful.” The Shaman couldn’t put down that linen.

He kept turning that linen back and forth, examining it closely with his eyes positioned extremely near.

As if afraid of missing any detail, the colours were extremely beautiful, and the fabric quality was also very high-grade.

“The feeling when touching it is the same as the linen brought back last time, but how can there be new colours?” Shan was also utterly perplexed.

This simply did not make sense; it simply was not within the realm of reason. Being able to create such high-quality linen was already miraculous, yet they could even dye it with such beautiful colours.

“Could it be dyed using plants?” Shaman Lei Yun speculated.

After all, when the Tribe held ceremonies, they often added pigments made from plants. Otherwise, they would use wild beast blood to dye colours, but they generally hadn’t applied these to linen.

No, it was not that no one had tried. People had tried but it hadn’t worked, which is why gradually no one did it anymore.

“I thought that initially too, but when I saw those shop managers demonstrating, I felt something was wrong.” Kai immediately rejected this idea, continuing, “At that time, I only saw them cut off a small piece, rotating it back and forth in water, rotating for a very long time.”

“Rotating for a long time without fading colour, correct?” Shaman Lei Yun knew what the other party wanted to express.

“That’s right. If it were made with plant pigments, washing it a few times should make the colour completely fade.”

Kai held a piece of fabric, saying seriously, “But no matter how those people washed it, the colour remained the same.”

“We traded for these specifically because we felt the colour wouldn’t fade, and we still had to scramble for them.” Kuang added.

“It appears the Flame Dragon Tribe is truly a magical Tribe…” Shaman Lei Yun fell into contemplation.

He had never heard of a Tribe like this, much less heard of a Tribe that could invent so many amazing products.
