"What are you doing right now? Do you know that the price has plummeted?" Earl Canmond roared, glaring at the three nobles before him. "Do you think we don't know that? No. Do you think we're not facing the same problem?" Count Yatcher shouted back. "Kh!" Count Lesen bit his lips, not knowing what to do in this situation. "The price has decreased so much in just two weeks. Some of the nobles have stopped buying our products because the price doesn't increase." "Aren't those nobles under their…-

"What? Why can't you sell it?" A middle-aged man roared at the staff. "I'm sorry, sir. The president has told us that anyone related to Lounstein can't purchase the items." "Do you understand what you're saying right now?" The staff couldn't say or sell anything no matter how the middle-aged man pressured him. "You…" The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, glaring at the staff. When he looked around, the people were staring at him in disdain. He snorted and walked away. "Just you wait. I'll…

"So, this is the city." Maxwell stood in front of the city that was said to be built for the hub. It was still at the level of a village, but there were already a few important buildings that were being constructed. The roads were also expanded to two sides, one heading to the main city while the other headed to the west. "There are still a few more cities that can be built along the way, but this city will have direct access to Rune Technology. I believe that the main city will become the main…

Noel and Anna stood in front of a half-finished building, watching the workers working on the roof. "Master!" Dimitri was the first to notice their arrival and greet them. "Yo, Dimitri. You're not going to return to the main city?" Noel smirked, teasing Dimitri. "This…" Dimitri scratched the back of his head. On the one hand, he indeed needed to return. On the other hand, this was a once-in-a-lifetime event. There was no way he would miss out or let anyone mess it up. In addition, it would be…

A man stood behind a window while looking at the city from the second floor. 'I am Zephyr. I have been known as a good and trusted merchant, allowing me to climb my rank to the eighth most important merchant in this kingdom. 'However, there is a reason why I am able to achieve such a feat. I was originally an orphan and I had to live in a slum for a long time. 'I might have developed my instinct or sixth sense to detect danger. Because of that, I changed my life for the better and even sneaked…

'Is he crazy? He wants us to invest in an area that has nothing in it?' The three merchants couldn't help but furrow their eyebrows. "Are you sure you would like us to invest in this land?" Maxwell couldn't help but ask, thinking that the Marquis had gone crazy. He might not have misunderstood the marquis the whole time. However, Noel shook his head calmly as though he had expected this kind of reaction. "Why do you think this land is not worth all that? I have even begun building the city…

"Welcome to my Laivaen City. Please take a seat." 'So, this is the rumored Marquis.' The merchants thought. They all had different opinions in their heads. First of all, it was clear that the marquis was the youngest person in this meeting. Yet, there were a lot of rumors about his brilliance and slyness. Still, it didn't change the fact that the four nobles had cornered him to the point where he had to beg for their help. Some people thought that they could devour him. Some people carefully…

"Welcome." A young girl smiled, greeting the guest that came to the inn. "Oh! What a cute girl. I'm planning to stay for three days. Do you have your best room?" "Thank you very much." The girl politely thanked him for the praise before introducing the room. "We have our best room ready. Please follow me." The middle-aged man nodded. He just casually paid a lot of money without blinking an eye. "This is your key. Please follow me. I'll guide you to your room." The girl extended her hand. "I can…

"Hehehe. He must be in flames right now." "We don't know about it, but this should put him in trouble for the time being." "But are we really going to do this? You should know that a lot of nobles have sided with him because of that rune technology." "We just have to follow the royal family. By pressuring him like this, he is bound to make a rash decision sooner or later. And at that time, the royal family will take the opportunity to seize his rune technology." The four nobles were sitting at…

Two weeks later. "We have sent out the people as you ordered. We have split five hundred people into five groups and sent them to the north to build five different villages. Each of them has enough food and soldiers to protect themselves." Rose reported. "Good. Record all their requests and progress." Noel nodded. "Also, what's the situation with the Demon Banner Army?" "We've sent the request to the Demon Banner Army, and it appears that several captains have been interested in going." "We only…
