Surviving The Fourth Calamity

65: Chapter 62: Hill’s Near Mishap 65: Chapter 62: Hill’s Near Mishap Hill looked around the store with great satisfaction.

After scanning the entire shop, the impressive lady indeed headed straight for the jewelry display, her eyes sparkling as she admired the dignified and elegant, gleaming gemstone jewelry.

She was extremely satisfied with the feast of exquisite gems and craftsmanship, happily sweeping up those expensive jewels.

Hill was truly delighted, as the players were all paying with attributeless crystals, and he could now support his elemental spirits for many years with these returns.

Hill sat on the sofa, joyfully sipping his juice.

Perhaps he should try his hand at making some jewelry too?

After dreaming for a while, he finally remembered his painful history of being scolded by his mother for his peculiar color choices.

Not everyone likes only black and white, and most people claiming they only love black and white are typically a representation of the physically incapable.

Better not to ruin money.

Earning some is already very good.

Hill watched the lady leave the shop happily, thinking contentedly.

Baldy sat down and said, “Mr.

Hill!

We want 100 sets of the shop’s core!

If possible, we would like more in the future!”

Hill was surprised, “You manage to open so many stores?”

Baldy finally confessed after some hesitation, “One reason is that Black and White Path plans to go to the Northern Border to grab a few territories, and there needs to be a general store, right?

Plus, our own guild always has a few learning alchemy.

Even though it might not be valuable, we also want to sell some to compensate for the consumption.”

Another reason, he chuckled, “William is selling shop spaces in the Royal Capital!”

Hill was suddenly startled, “Kexlote’s, already?”

“Yes, William said, Osbastian will be left to Saral’s royal nobility!

Kexlote belongs to us.

We will be operating in the Royal Capital from now on.

The arena is going to be opened there.

The shops around the arena, William plans to sell to our Undead Tribe.

We can only keep accumulating military exploits, waiting for the chance!

Everything from William must be exchanged for military exploits.

If it weren’t for Mr.

Hill coming here, we haven’t bought anything good in over a month.”

Hill hesitated.

William wasn’t planning on starting to sell those properties right away, was he?

Although it is also about spending money, according to the usual rules of this world, the stores in the Royal Capital are first occupied by the royal family, then by the Great Nobility and archmages, and then by the lesser nobles and professionals.

William wouldn’t be planning to do away with the nobles’ district, would he?

But it’s also possible!

Not leaving any face for the nobles, William could do it!

He might even decide to sell to the highest bidder, rather than having the highest rank choose first.

Nobles who don’t want to bow to him just continue to stay in Osbastian, right?

Unable to keep up with him, just slowly fade away with time.

The Temple District in Osbastian is definitely not going to move into Kexlote, and those nobles who refuse to give up their glory will not perish either.

After all, the Goldstone Mine still exists.

The Great Magic Tower, which still retains two legendary mages, who knows what will happen in the future?

The lower-level mages in the Magic Tower all need to follow the King, and no one will stay there.

There could hardly be a rebellion, especially since William has left a super huge Space-Time Cathedral in Osbastian!

William is a man with fierce tactics, no one doubts that now!

Hill calmed down again thinking about it.

He just needed to inform Fran.

Fran had arranged for people in Kexlote, and they could arrive immediately upon notification.

Hill himself didn’t need to buy shops in the Royal Capital.

The matters in Osbastian also had nothing to do with him.

If there was any major issue, Fran would tell him.

Hill told Baldy, “More than a hundred, it’s worth Adrian getting involved.

I’ll notify him tonight, and he will deliver the goods directly.”

Baldy hesitated and asked, “Can I go pick them up once they are ready?

How long will it take to make 100?

Will Master Fran be making others to sell at the same time?”

Hill realized these guys wanted a monopoly.

He couldn’t help but laugh, “Master Fran has no desire to make that little money.

Once Adrian takes the order, he’ll arrange for the alchemists in his territory to make it.

He won’t make others until all of your goods are dealt with first.”

Baldy laughed happily, “That’s great!

They can’t find another alchemist, either they spend military exploits or they go be a shop boy themselves!”

He stood up, politely bid farewell to Hill, and joined up with the various clan leaders in the shop.

Hill watched him gesticulate and laugh loudly, the others also very happy to go along with him.

Indeed, no matter which world it is, the joys and sorrows of these guild leaders are the same; as long as rival gangs suffer even a bit, it’s their happiness.

Suddenly, Srei approached him, “Sir, you’ve received a message you must reply to.”

Hill gave him a puzzled look and walked upstairs.

The communicator in the study flashed, and Hill pressed down on it.

William’s voice came through, “Hello, Baron Polanio.

I’m William.

Today I received an application from a lady of the Undead Tribe, she is a jewelry designer from that world.

She hopes to use your jewelry design plans.

Are they your designs?

They look very familiar to me.”

Hill was speechless for a while, taken aback by the unexpected news, and attempted to remain calm as he replied, “They are all made by my mother.

I’m not very proficient in this area.”

The low voice from the other side of the communicator made him breathe a sigh of relief, “Master Fran’s daughter, Melanie?

Really, is this the result of reading too many romance novels?”
