Looking at the six neatly arranged bullfrogs on the table, Sean's eyelids began to twitch.
"How's it?" Lisha asked with a smile.
"It's... Quite impressive..." Sean struggled to find the right words, hesitating for a moment before finally speaking.
"Quick! Try it!" Lisha pushed one barbequed bullfrog toward Sean.
There was nothing else for Sean to say. He could only reluctantly pick up the barbequed bullfrog and take a bite.
Sean thought the bullfrog must be very unpleasant to taste. However, the barbequed bullfrog in his mouth tasted
amazing, with a particularly delicious flavor.
The unexpectedly great taste surprised Sean, as the taste was vastly different from the appearance, leaving him
feeling caught off guard. It seemed that bullfrogs were similar to stinky tofu.

Of course, people who often ate bullfrogs would not find them unappetizing. This was just a difference in dietary
habits caused by Sean's background.
"The taste is good, isn't it?"
Lisha's smile grew even wider as she tore off a leg of a bullfrog and put it into her mouth.
"Yeah, it's really good..." Sean nodded earnestly.
This time, he was not just perfunctory, he genuinely thought the bullfrog tasted great.
"Do you want something to drink?" The food stall owner asked with a smile.
"Uncle, are you trying to sell us your homemade fruit wine again?" Lisha burst out laughing.
It seemed that the stall owner frequently tried to sell his homemade fruit wine to Lisha. Otherwise, Lisha would not
have reacted like that.
The owner of the food stall rubbed his nose awkwardly, but then he straightened up and said proudly, "Believe it or
not, my fruit wine is really good. Everyone who's tasted it says so! It's both sweet and sour, and the alcohol content
is high, comparable to strong liquor."
"It's precisely because the alcohol content is too high that your fruit wine doesn't sell well, uncle. People who want
to drink fruit wine are young girls, so how could they possibly drink something with such a high alcohol content?"
"And those who want to drink high-alcohol-content beverages are mostly men. Compared to fruit wine, they prefer
brandy or vodka, as well as the liquor from Dragon Kingdom."
Lisha's words were spot on.
This food stall owner's fruit wine seemed to be the type of in-the-middle drink that neither young girls nor men
liked.
However, Sean was very interested.

craftsmanship must have something special.
"Give me a glass of your fruit wine, Uncle."
Sean decided to call this food stall owner "uncle" along with Lisha.
Upon hearing this, the uncle laughed so much that he could not close his mouth and quickly poured a full glass of
fruit wine for Sean.
Sean picked up the oversized glass and took a sip. The taste was a mixture of sour, sweet, and alcoholic, and it was
very intense, with a complex flavor.
At first, Sean did not know whether to say the fruit wine was good or bad, but when he put down the oversized
glass, he had the impulse to chug it down in one gulp.
"The fruit used to make this wine is called black wolfberry. It's a fruit that's similar to grapes, but it's especially sour.
It's a specialty of our city-state," Lisha explained with a smile.
"I see," Sean replied.
