I Become a Landlady in the Game World-Chapter 870 - 413: Hope Town Has Always Walked the Road of Struggle
Meanwhile, in the offices of various departments on the second and third floors, everyone was seriously discussing some details of cooperation.
City Construction Management Office.
"This is the route planned according to the map, take a look and see if there are any issues." Bi Jiamu handed over three different plans to the Lords of Bengala Town, Yuxi Village, and Guangshui Village.
Earl Orkot looked at the plans in his hands and paused.
On the plans, the various demon beast gathering points encountered along the way from Hope Town to Bengala Town were directly marked, even identifying what type of demon beast. In addition, there were also some outdoor resource points.
As the Lord of Bengala Town, Earl Orkot knew less than those above him.
"You guys sure know a lot about these demon beast gathering points and resource points." Earl Orkot snorted.
Bi Jiamu listened and smiled, saying, "The professionals in our territory are quite active; they like to run around and know a bit more. The information was provided by them to the territory, and we did pay them some information fees! After all, knowing more can prevent accidents when residents from our two territories are traveling! This information comes in handy."
Looking at Bi Jiamu’s smile, Earl Orkot immediately said, "Let’s go with this route then!"
"If this route is confirmed, I’ll calculate the cost of the cement road with the Earl! This includes the cost of materials, labor costs..." As Bi Jiamu spoke, he directly set the overall cost, "Earl, do you think this price is acceptable? It is an approximate estimate based on our labor costs in Hope Town, and it might be cheaper in Bengala Town."
"No problem, let’s do it this way!" Earl Orkot glanced at the three-digit gold coin cost. Although it seemed a bit expensive, it was, after all, a long-term solution that was acceptable.
"Alright, then once the Earl sends someone to deliver the funds, we will provide the cement and the methods and precautions for repairing the cement road. Earl, please sign here." As Bi Jiamu spoke, he swiftly filled in a few numbers on a document and handed it to Earl Orkot.
Earl Orkot signed without hesitation.
After he signed, he suddenly realized that the staff of Hope Town seemed to be indeed much more capable than those in his own territory! He decided to push his team harder when he returned.
No wonder they fell behind Hope Town so quickly, it’s all because they couldn’t match the talent!
As for Bevin from Yuxi Village and Xiang Ziqian from Guangshui Village, they didn’t even ask questions, signing their confirmation straight away, truly showing immense trust.
Earl Orkot couldn’t help but glance at both of them, their attitude of clinging to Hope Town was evident!
The two of them didn’t know Earl Orkot’s thoughts, but if they did, they would just say, sometimes having someone to rely on is also a skill.
On another front, Song Wenli was also negotiating a cement distributor contract with Yin Bo Le, the Lord of Tiantianxiang Village.
"Just go to the cement plant regularly to collect the cement." Song Wenli said straightforwardly.
After all, limestone wasn’t necessarily essential for their cement plant, but it was a good choice for other uses.
Anyway, according to the Mayor’s wishes, the hope was to stockpile any important materials in Hope Town, and limestone was one of them!
"I’m saying if... if, eh! What if the amount of cement my territory sells exceeds the amount given by Hope Town?" Yin Bo Le cautiously probed.
Hearing this, Song Wenli instantly understood, realizing that he had already started making his own cement.
Fortunately, their Mayor had already anticipated this.
Song Wenli spoke without hesitation, "Besides you and me, who knows how much cement you’ve taken from our territory?"
The Mayor was already prepared for other territories to sell cement on their own, so if a territory was willing to sell under Hope Town’s name, why not?
After all, Hope Town already had many debts to worry about.
Yin Bo Le heard this and immediately grasped Song Wenli’s meaning, smiling slightly, "I understand, I understand."
Selling under Hope Town’s name was also a form of protection for his own territory!
Hope Town, so magnanimous!
He might even share this with a few other friendly territories, that anything good they come up with, as long as it appears in Hope Town, could bear Hope Town’s brand, and with a slight profit share to Hope Town, it would be much better than sneaking around as they currently do.
