Xin said that you have already said that this territory is still in the pioneering stage. Do you have to wait until it is completed? How long will it take? Twenty years? Thirty years? Or fifty years?

By then, their bones might have turned into ashes.

Moreover, a city-state cannot be built as soon as it is built.

If the Nether fishing village back then was not fortunate enough to receive the support of Nether scrolls and elves, it is unknown whether it would have prospered like this.

Sigard, who had already anticipated the other party's reaction, continued:

"Our lord has said that we would like to invite you to visit our territory first. If you are still not satisfied with it in the end, we will pay compensation strictly in accordance with the contract."

"How can you pay compensation if you can't even raise enough money?" A businessman finally couldn't help but roar.

Sigard smiled and said: "No money, but we still have the goods."

"Grain? Fathead fish? Dried meat?" Jimmy was the first to wake up, and the businessmen behind him also woke up.

If they use the food that Levi's paid for in Silver Moon City, as long as the price is lowered to a certain level, they can still make a profit.

"You can come and see for yourself and you will know. I guarantee you will be satisfied." Sigard said with a smile.

More than an hour later, a group of businessmen from Silver Moon looked at the camp that was still a tent, and were silent again.

"It's really a pioneering state!"

Even for an honest man like John, he looked at the flat ground and the bare cliffs, and compared it with the majestic white city of Minas Tirith in the schematic diagram.

The contrast is truly extraordinary.

But to his surprise, the camp here was built much better than he had imagined. It was neatly arranged in rows and columns, and there wasn't even any peculiar smell.

Old John observed it and found that they seemed to have special public toilets, canteens and bathhouses.

And at the pass closest to the Gryphon Mountains and the Sebring River in the north, a towering city wall nearly two kilometers long was even built.

This is also the only place that makes the merchants of Silver Moon City look at them with admiration.

As long as there is this city wall, it can at least be guaranteed that Minas Tirith will have even more reliable protection than Silvermoon City when facing the invasion of the orcs from the south.

But the premise is that this small territory with a population of only about 20,000 can gather an army that can face the orcs.

But at this point, John Sr. is pessimistic.

Silvermoon City has been developing for hundreds of years. When facing the orcs, it is still in a passive and tired state of being beaten. It does not seem that easy to stop the orcs with just a wall.

And this is also a common thought among most businessmen.

So after touring this so-called 'new city', even the businessmen who originally had some ideas gave up the idea of ​​taking a chance.

What made them feel a little relieved was that although the little lord Levi still didn't show up, he seemed to have known that they were coming to collect debts. He had already activated the territorial gates in the entire territory and set up a large number of people outside the camp.

A street stall

Among them, the most eye-catching ones are the mountains of leather goods piled up by the gnoll vendors, and the boxes of standard weapons and armor laid out by the gray dwarf vendors.

On the stalls of other territorial residents, there are handicrafts made by them in response to the call of the lord this winter, leather goods and homemade dried meat from hunting in the Griffin Mountains.

The repayment rules for them are also very simple:

As long as you see something on this commercial street, what do you want? Just get it at the agreed price!

Then just record it directly on their application form for "House Purchasing Intention Deposit". After all the deductions are made, the contract will be terminated on the spot.

Such novel compensation rules and abundant supplies finally made the originally angry businessmen smile.

If you make money, everyone will be happy.

Old John also showed a smile. He reluctantly bought five "intention application forms" half a year ago. If they were all exchanged for supplies here, he should be able to make a small profit of more than 30%.

But just when he had just spent four of them and was about to clear out his share of the last one, he suddenly discovered that there were stalls selling magic items on this block!

Even though most of them are magic items at the most entry-level magic level, they are still magic items.

What made him even more incredible was that the owner of this stall looked quite familiar to him.

"Kevin? Anna? Is that you?" Old John looked at the pair of siblings who were vaguely similar to those in his memory with some disbelief.

"Uncle John?" Little Anna, who was wearing a witch's hat, was selling her masterpiece to other businessmen. After hearing this, she looked up and saw John's face full of vicissitudes of life, and she said with surprise.

"Oh, my God! Goddess Wo'jin, Goddess above, finally let me find you."

Old John held the two poor children in his arms with tears streaming down his face.

It's just that Kevin and Anna looked at each other, quite awkward.

They always felt that there was a big difference between Uncle John's imagination and reality.

They do not feel that they are pitiful. On the contrary, they are now living a very fulfilling life, which can even be said to be very nourishing.

After some conversation, Old John felt that his three views had collapsed.

Pointing at Anna in disbelief: "You actually became a magician?"

Little Anna shrugged innocently and said, "Yeah, as you can see."

"Then can you give uncle a discount?" Old John winked.

""Kevin and Anna.

They never expected that the other party's first reaction would be this

But after Old John took out the only remaining intention application form, his eyes lit up slightly. He wanted him to redeem the whole thing for himself, but after thinking about it, he still reminded him in a kind voice:

"Uncle John, if you are not in such a hurry for the time being, I suggest you keep it, and don't tell others."

She still remembers the urgent message Teacher Fisher sent her in the morning:

"Little Anna, go to my warehouse and take out all those failed rags. A batch of fat sheep is coming to the camp soon!

"Remember! Collect more "House Purchasing Intention" application forms from them!
Chapter completed!
