I've been transported to the orc continent.

Chapter 138 You're a Little Unhappy

The stall they set up in the moonlight was selling soap.

Since Bai Ling invented soap, it has become popular in the surrounding tribes, and now it is an essential item for every household.

The soap they sell is different from ordinary soap; it has some other ingredients added to it.

As soon as Yue and her group arrived at their stall, before they even had a chance to display what they wanted to sell, they had already attracted a lot of attention.

The reason is simple: the moon is here.

Yue is the most beautiful female among the surrounding tribes, and today she dressed up extravagantly, making her even more beautiful than before. She was so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.

The females of the Yuehe tribe stopped in one place. They first took down two baskets, then took a plank from the baskets and placed it on top of the baskets, thus creating a simple table.

Before the goods were even taken out of the basket, two orcs had already surrounded them.

These were two young male orcs. They stepped forward and asked, "What are you selling?"

Xiao said loudly, "We sell soap."

Upon hearing this, the young male immediately asked, "How much is the soap?"

He still has two bars of soap at home. If they're not too expensive, he'll buy two to save time on making soap.

The young female brought out the soap, and the two male orcs immediately realized that the soap they were selling was different from their own.

The soaps in the house are pale white or yellowish-white, but the soaps the woman brought out were pale green, pale red, and pale pink. And, I don't know if they smelled it wrong, but these soaps seemed to have a grassy scent.

Xiao Da said loudly, "Our soap is different from ordinary soap. It contains grass and flower petals. This green soap contains grass, and it feels very refreshing to wash your hands and face with it in the summer. The red and pink soaps contain flower petals. These two types of soap are more suitable for females. They leave a light fragrance when you wash your hands and face with them."

Bai Ling taught them how to make these soaps.

Xiao and some friends wanted to make some things to sell at the Chada Convention, but ordinary items couldn't be exchanged for much. So they asked Bai Ling for his opinion, and Bai Ling gave them this idea.

Adding a naturally cooling herbal juice to soap-making process gives the soap a refreshing feel; picking fragrant flowers and using the simplest distillation method to extract the fragrance, then adding the fragrance to the soap solution, results in soap with a subtle scent.

Following Bai Ling's instructions, Xiao and her friends successfully made a unique soap.

When selling soap, Xiao and the females from the tribe brought Yue along. Yue was so beautiful that she didn't have to do anything but stand in front of the stall, which would attract a lot of orcs. Then, when they shouted loudly to sell the soap, they would definitely be able to sell it all.

Although there are no celebrities in the orc world, the little ones already understand what the "celebrity effect" is.

The fact that Yue was standing there already attracted the attention of many orcs, not only young males but also many females.

Xiao loudly explained the differences in the soap, which attracted many beastmen to gather around the stall.

The orc who was also setting up a stall quickly called out, "Our soap is available for trial. We have basins and soap here. You can use whichever kind of soap you want to buy to wash your hands."

This was also Bai Ling's idea: let the beastmen try the soap first when selling it, so they would know what was different about it and more beastmen might be willing to buy it.

This method indeed attracted many orcs. The orcs gathered around the basin, first wetting their hands, and then picking up a bar of soap they liked and applying it to their hands.

The orc who picked up the green soap noticed its difference as soon as he applied it; the soap felt cool and refreshing on his hands, which was very comfortable in the hot summer.

The orcs who tried it immediately fell in love with the soap. After a long day of work and sweating, taking a bath with this soap at home would feel incredibly comfortable.

The other two types of soap are also very popular. Young females love them. The Chada Conference is a place for young orcs to make friends. Bathing with this soap will also leave a faint fragrance on the body, which is very attractive to females.

The soap was a bit expensive; a green bar could be exchanged for two pieces of dried meat, while a light red or light pink bar required a whole piece of dried meat to exchange for one. However, the beastmen didn't complain about the price and traded for it without hesitation.

Some males were picking out green soaps while chatting with Yue. Some invited Yue to go out for a walk, some asked if Yue would still participate in the competition on the third day, and some brought novel trinkets they had just acquired to give to Yue.

Yue rejected all of these offers, telling the male beastmen directly that he already had someone he loved and that they were together.

The rejected male did not persist and left immediately.

More and more female orcs gathered around the stall, many of whom had come immediately after hearing that there was scented soap at the stall.

The young females chatted and laughed as they picked out soaps. Yue bent down to introduce the soaps to them, and then she heard one of the young females say, "Oh my, that Ling is so handsome. His smile is like the sun, it can melt people. I really want to go after him."

The young female's friend said, "Then go after her!"

"So many people wanted to ask him out, but he didn't agree to any of them." The young woman's tone was a little disappointed. "He said he already has someone he likes."

"Hey, do you think he just made up an excuse to refuse? He said he has someone he likes, but he's not with any females."

The young orc's friends speculated about the matter, but by the time they all bought soap and left, they hadn't come up with a conclusion.

Yue heard everything the females said. His expression calmed down, his eyebrows drooped, and his mouth was tightly shut. He stopped talking.

Xiao and Yue were very familiar with each other. When he heard the group of females talking about Ling, he knew that Yue was probably uncomfortable. So Xiao turned his head and saw Yue's expressionless face.

Xiao walked over and gently nudged Yue with her arm: "Yue, you seem a little unhappy."

Xiao used an affirmative tone.

Yue shook her head: "No."

Xiao pulled Yue behind the stall, wrapped her arms around Yue's arm, and said with a grin, "Yue, we've been playing together since we were little. I know whether you're happy or not. I bet you're unhappy because you heard that a lot of people like Ling."
