[He hadn't gotten as far as figuring out how the fridge worked, so he shrugs, shaking his head faintly.]
Mm, I don't know how they work, exactly, but I think they're fairly common here. The man I spoke to seemed to suggest as much, that most kitchens have both a stove for cooking and a fridge for keeping their food cold.
[It would be a great luxury, back home, not even Paradise Manor had such things, but here it was commonplace. Things really were completely different here, weren't they?
It's hard to ignore San Lang's enthusiasm, and he nods along with each new find, honestly just as surprised and curious that there's so much variety and so many offerings in such a small space.]
I would worry about theft, but perhaps it's like your Paradise Manor and one can't take things out without payment?
[He pushes himself up in the cart enough to lean over and press against the glass.]
But how do they know when it'll go bad? And how does it stay good for so long?
[Xie Lian has eaten enough food long-past its prime to be able to guess at it fairly accurately himself, but it's still impressive that they know well enough to date it.]
