The camel sat down on the spot, still smacking his lips as if chewing betel nut, and was unmoved by Fu Anan's words.
Camels can live for 17 days without food or water. One of the reasons why Fu Anan bought it was because it eats less and has a good temper. In addition, camels are also meat, which is also an important reason for them to be used as reserve food.
For this reason, she could even forgive Camel Brother's coldness.
Not to mention, this aloofness is a bit like her brother Fu!
It finally got dark.
There are no stars in the desert nights here.
The sky is like a piece of pure black cloth, extremely black!
Fu Anan, who had been traveling all day, sat down and leaned on the camel. He took out a big steamed bun from the space and ate it with the water.
The most common thing in her space is mugalan, which she calls cassava root; the second most common thing is steamed bun.
In the Gobi Desert, even firewood has to be bought with money.
She thought she might be able to pick it up on the road, so she didn't buy any. But she walked for a whole day and didn't even pick up a single piece of firewood.
There is also meat in the space. Both cassava roots and meat need to be cooked before they can be eaten, and only the big steamed bun is the most cost-effective food.
Cooking the food in the space has become Fu Anan’s most important task now.
Now that we know where the westernmost part of the border is, even if Fu Yizhi comes here, he will definitely have to go to the nearest Gobi Desert to replenish supplies.
With the latest useful information, Fu Anan prepared to go back tomorrow. She reached out and touched the camel's rough fur on her back, "Brother Camel, it seems that our fate has come to an end."
She had a good idea. Since the camel was not needed for the time being, she would sell it when she got back, and then buy some firewood, salt and steamed buns.

Game Day 5
The darker the night, the more dazzling the sun was during the day. Two days passed like this.
Following the guidance of the sun, they returned to the Gobi Desert. The first thing Fu Anan did while leading the camel was to check whether the house he had rented for a small sum of gold was still there.
As soon as she entered the door, the boss was still fiddling with the abacus casually at the door. Next to her was a man with bulging muscles, dressed in black, with a shaved head and a long scar on his face.
This man had a fierce look in his eyes, the kind that could scare a child to tears with just one glare.
Fu Anan had a special impression of him, the leader of the camel caravan that the boss entrusted to bring supplies. When he saw her come in, he fixed his eyes on her, with a scrutinizing look that made it unclear whether he was good or bad.
Fu Anan met his gaze, looked back, and then sat down in front of the boss.
"You still remember to come back."
The boss looked at Fu Anan.
"Boss, is the house I rented still there?"
Fu Anan got straight to the point, "I'm not leaving. I plan to stay here for a few more days."
"If you come back one day later, there will be no room."
The boss opened the account book and said in a cold tone, "Your rent is due in five days. Remember to renew it, otherwise you will move out when the time comes."
"Know."
After Fu Anan answered, she heard the camel's grunting outside. Taking advantage of the fact that it was still light in the evening, which was the busiest time for the market, she left the hotel and led the camel to the market.
Selling things here is very casual.
Just find an empty spot and sit there.
Fu Anan sat down like other sellers, while thinking about how to sell the camel.
She bought it for 5 gold. The camel is in good health, about 90% new, and has run no more than 100 kilometers. Selling it for 4 gold is not too much.
Just as I was thinking this, the first customer came to my door and asked, "How much is this camel?"
Camel: You just called me brother, but now you want to sell me out
