CHAPTER 879: CHAPTER 415: IT’S HIS, IT’S HIS, IT’S ALL HIS!

Just as they were thinking this, they were already near the city gate.

At this moment, the city gate was bustling with people coming and going, no less lively than the core area centered around the Lord Mansion.

Especially the beast carts, constantly entering and exiting.

Indeed, this South Gate is an important entrance for other territories coming to Hope Town, after all, the factories of Hope Town are concentrated in this area, so bulk purchases of Hope Town’s products are made here.

Besides the prosperity at the entrance, the first Commercial Street of South Gate in Hope Town is equally bustling.

For no other reason, it’s because the shops on this street are having a hot sale!

"Ahead are the shops that have been quite famous in various towns these days." Artel looked at the customers queuing up in front of the shop and started introducing directly.

"The first shop has a total of three outlets, the owner behind it is Big Mountain Town, selling Platinum Weapons and Blue Equipment, covering all professions. Not only is there a wide variety, but they are also cost-effective. The same weapon has better quality than others and is cheaper in price. If buying in bulk, one can even negotiate a so-called wholesale price. Once opened, merchant teams and mercenary teams took turns lining up to grab them. Although this shop belongs to Big Mountain Town, its operations are currently managed by Hope Town. The staff was arranged by Hope Town, while Big Mountain Town seems to only be responsible for supplying goods."

"The second shop, also with three outlets, is owned by Green Grassland Town. It sells some extraordinary fruits and vegetables which can enhance attributes and increase affinity with elements even without processing. As expected, many merchant teams and mercenary teams are eyeing them, hoping to find an Advanced or Holy Level Pharmacist for processing, which could sell for astronomical prices. Although the price is somewhat high, it’s still within the capacity of many. However, it’s said there’s a limited supply so purchases are restricted, sometimes even requiring bidding."

"The third shop is composed of two connected outlets. The territory behind it seems to be called Day Day Up, specializing in selling ores. Although the quality isn’t particularly high, there are a myriad of types. Ores are necessary materials for many weapons, thus attracting many customers. It seems this territory has exchanged some special ores with Hope Town for some kind of cement dealership rights. Although they can’t sell cement, they have cement on hand and can barter with other territories."

"The fourth, fifth, and sixth shops each have one outlet, backed by Yuxi Village, Guangshui Village, and Xinghua Village respectively. The first two territories are nothing special, just small territories in this area dependent on Hope Town, selling similar goods to those of Hope Town’s shops, with a bit more of their territorial specialties. Now relying on other shops, they too have achieved considerable business. On the other hand, the last one specializes in publishing, with reports of setting up a printing factory in Hope Town. They sell novels and textbooks, including a bestselling novel, ’Rebirth of the Legendary Mage,’ which you, my Lord, have read!"

"Besides these shops, there are others, involving territories like Bengala Town and Glasgow Town. It’s said Hope Town has directly signed with over five hundred territories, including nearly four hundred village-level territories and over a hundred Town level territories. They moved in by renting Hope Town’s shops to sell their territorial specialty products. Now it’s said you can find the most comprehensive products, best services, and best food here in Hope Town."

"..."

Artel spoke bit by bit, with a hint of solemnity in his demeanor.

Hope Town has indeed gathered quite a few territories.

Although currently it’s mainly economic connections, if future interests deepen, these territories might support Hope Town for the sake of interests.

The future holds an extraordinary force.

Hope Town is indeed playing a good game of chess!

"No wonder Marquis urged me to resolve Hope Town as soon as possible. Giving Hope Town more time will indeed make it tough to deal with." Sulic still acknowledged the strength of Hope Town.

"It’s already difficult to deal with now, with so many Platinum Weapons and Blue Equipment in Hope Town’s hands. Previously, during Hope Town’s attack on Fasal Village, they were equipped with Golden Weapons and Red Equipment. Nobody knows if they will upgrade." Artel said candidly, from Hope Town’s current situation, it’s clear they have the financial strength for it.
