Chapter 483: "The Wine Merchant"

***

"What is the name of this town?" Emmelyn asked Maxim as their wine wagon entered the gate of the next town. This was where they would sell their wine to reduce the load. 

She was impressed by the beauty of this town. It was not as big as Belem, but not too small either. There were many big and beautiful buildings here.

The town had several canals with calm water. They could see small boats connecting the people from one place to another.

It was such a beautiful place. Emmelyn thought the white flowers on the side of the road reminded her of Wintermere flowers in wintertime.

"Well, this city is called Red Bean," Maxim explained.

"Huh?" Emmelyn furrowed her brows. "Such funny name."

"I have no idea why they gave it such a funny name," Maxim responded. "But it works. People remember it easily and it's not a bad name either. I mean, it's not like it's called Red Shit or something."
