The tour of these two major projects, both of which were aimed at finally making Zanzan a clean, beautiful, city to live in, had taken Alexander the entire day.
And by the time he was finished, Alexander noticed the sun slowly dipping down the horizon, turning the sky from blue to a shaded orange hue.
Dusk seemed to be settling in and he noticed that the workers were all finishing up their work for the day, both exhaustion and relief evident on their faces.
He also did not notice when they had come, but a few opportunistic hawkers seemed to have suddenly apparated around the perimeter of the work site, selling all kinds of refreshing fruits, hearty meals, and delicious snacks to the hungry people, their smell and sight making everyone salivate.
There were a few who even sold groceries such as vegetables, eggs, and meat.
