In the morning, Tsuchigumo went to the harbor to pick up Ratman.
Along the way she passed through a huge old shoe market, where second-hand shoes from all over the world were sold to the Hot Tree Continent, becoming local coveted treasures.
All kinds of branded shoes, imitation shoes, and plain assembly line products were considered worth buying for them. Before coming to Zanges, many people did not realize the significance of shoes, as they were extremely poor, and owning a pair of shoes was a luxury.
This place will always be impoverished. Tsuchigumo thought to herself. There's no way to make these people wealthy.
She drove her own Little Deer, feeling anxious, her Spider Sense always alerting her in time.
Stopping before the harbor, she took out her phone to flick through the news and learned that a change of power was looming over Zanges.
