Become the city lord from today

It had just rained northwest of Marshall City, and the ground became very muddy.

Avili and Jones came back here after discussing with Darlene.

Jones looked around with her red eyes and said lightly,"The location here is indeed not too bad."

"Yes, there is still a lot of traffic."Avery is convinced.

You can tell by the way the two of them find it difficult to walk on the street. The dense flow of people and the muddy road make them move at a snail's pace.

"We have to hurry up and go and hand over to the shop owner, there are still a lot of things to do after we finish."Jones urged.

Avili held the hem of the skirt with both hands, rolled her eyes and said,"If it weren't for this damn skirt, we would have arrived a long time ago."

Jones shrugged and said helplessly,"There is no way, we have to pretend to be a noble lady."

The two of them kept walking through the crowded crowd, looking at the various orcs, and receiving compliments from time to time. More than ten minutes later, the two came to the door of the store selling land, took out the prepared documents and handed them to each other.

"It's written in great detail. Read it carefully and sign if there's nothing wrong with it."Avery said seriously.

The store owner took the contract and began to read it carefully. When he saw the document, he was surprised. Unexpectedly, the document used by the other party was made of white paper, which was smaller than a parchment scroll. It looked so good.

In about five minutes, the store carefully read the contract, signed the name on it, and handed it back to the beast-eared girls.

Avili motioned to the guard to hand over the box and said calmly,"This is to purchase land. of gold coins, check if the number is correct."

Yesterday, when I was discussing with the store owner to buy land, it took me most of the time to get it. From the original asking price of one hundred gold coins, I finally got it for fifty gold coins.

"good."The store owner showed a greedy look and asked the servants to open the boxes and start cleaning up.

Avili and Jones left the store alone and began to move around the store, scanning the environment here again.

Avril lowered her voice and said,"Here It will take a major transformation"

"Well, let's start construction tonight."Jones said softly.

Behind the beast-eared girls were two master craftsmen. They were still holding blueprints in their hands. After seeing the environment yesterday, they worked overtime at night to draw out the design.

Although it was a rough idea, it was not bad. How much? It's similar to the bank in Chang'an City, except that the store here is smaller.

"Ladies, the number of gold coins is no problem. You can sign now."The shopkeeper's eyes almost burst into laughter.

Avili walked over, signed her name, and sent the shopkeeper away. At the same time, she asked a group of plainclothes soldiers to guard the outside. She also wanted to discuss building a bank with the Leopard-Eared Lady. Things.

Jones looked at the drawings and said,"It looks like all the walls here are going to be knocked down.""

"And there, too, a slightly lower wall will be built later and a steel fence will be put up."Avery analyzed

"We need to bring in more people tonight to get some secret things done first."Jones said in a deep voice.

The secret thing that Leopard-eared Mother mentioned was cement. She brought a lot of it from Chang'an City in order to build this bank and use it. Before she came to this continent, according to the known information I learned from the intelligence that most of the buildings here are made of wood. Such houses are too unsafe and far less safe than those built with cement.

Avili nodded and said to the craftsman,"You have chosen the route for transporting cement. ?"

"Sir, we sent people to survey the route last night and found a remote route with few people around. Although it will take some detours, it can ensure confidentiality."The craftsman bowed and replied.

"That's good. You have to control the amount of cement and don't transport less cement. This will make it easy to be discovered after several trips back and forth."Avery warned.

At this stage, cement cannot leak, not to mention that we are in a foreign country now. If some interested people see it, it will be difficult to do.

"clear."Respectfully responded immediately.

Jones spread out another drawing and said worriedly,"There will probably be a lot of movement in this basement."

"Indeed, this can only be done at night, as it will be too eye-catching during the day."Avery agreed.

Jones looked at the craftsmen and warned,"You must allocate the work well, and when the workers come, they must also take a secret route and not be too ostentatious."

They remembered Liu Feng's advice that building a bank must be as low-key as possible no matter what.

"Yes, my lord."The craftsman responded seriously.

He also understood the current situation very well. Unlike Chang'an City, which is protected by a large number of soldiers and law-abiding civilians, the orcs in the Torola Orc Empire are very rude, and they have learned a lesson these days..

Avili looked at the empty store and asked,"How many days will it take to build it?""

"If you work overtime, including the time it takes for the cement to dry, it will take about four days."The craftsman budgeted.

Of course, this budgeted for the starting time during the day. At night it was time to build some cement walls and basements. During the day it was time to do some detailed repairs and interior furnishings.

"Well, don't be anxious, just be steady."Avery warned, not wanting anything to go wrong.

"clear."The craftsman said seriously.

If the bank successfully opens this time, the superiors will reward him with a house in Chang'an City, but he must not work hard.

"Averie, I think the coin transportation route needs to be modified. It cannot be the same as the cement transportation route." Jones suggested.

"Well, let someone find another route. It would be more appropriate to transport the coins in small quantities and multiple times."Avery agreed to this proposal.

After all, it is not a simple matter to transport the coins from the ship.

"Let's transport Dalina's stall first as a transition, and then transport it over after the bank is built."Jones thought.

Avili nodded and said,"Go back and discuss with Darlene, and the coins they have earned in the past few days must also be transferred."

Jones looked at the craftsman and ordered,"Let's go back first, you stay here, and arrange more soldiers to guard outside."

"yes."The craftsman bowed slightly and watched the beast-eared girls leave.
