The small town of Dazhen indeed looks far less prosperous than that of Daqian.
During this season, even in the warmest southeastern part of Dazhen, it's still winter, let alone the inland areas near the southwestern Hengduan Mountains.
The small town appears somewhat desolate, with few pedestrians on the streets. Only at the city gate can one see wagons pulled by exotic beasts.
Some burly men, steaming with heat, wearing beast skin vests, shout as they come and go.
Yu Ziqing could still sense some unstable fluctuations emanating from the wagons.
These were newly extracted ores, without preliminary processing, making them quite unstable.
Usually, a single mine wouldn't produce just one kind of ore; various ores are mixed together, often with low-purity Spirit Jades mixed in.
The composition is too complex and unstable, so they can only be transported like this.
If placed in a storage ring with too much accumulation, it could explode.
