Chapter 232, Megalithic Tomb
"What's the background?" Fang Hao glanced at the light-blooded man's position.
"I don't know. I came here this afternoon. I wear a hat in broad daylight." The landlady replied in a low voice without looking away.
The light-blooded one came a little earlier than Fang Hao, so he was on both sides.
"What are you here for?" Fang Hao continued to ask.
"I don't know. You just wanted to ask me about the undead in the north, but I was scared to death." The landlady patted her chest.
Since the last time the mercenary died in the store.
Although the city owner said that the Fire Wolf Mercenary Group was responsible, there are still some rumors that they offended the undead in the north and were all killed.
Now when the landlady hears about the undead, her heart trembles.
The store had just opened, and a bunch of strange people suddenly appeared, asking about the undead.
"They can't be pagans, they are so mysterious."
"It's possible. They still smell of blood when you get close. Don't come into contact with them. Pagans are all crazy." The proprietress continued to wipe the empty wine glass in her hand.
Fang Hao touched his chin and glanced at those people from time to time.
The vampires are asking about the undead again.
It seems that the vampires got the news about the blood hunters turning into skeletons.
But since they didn't launch a direct attack, it's very likely that they got the information through third-party channels, and they don't know much about the Undead Territory.
These people should be just scouts or spies.
"They want to live here? Sitting there so coldly will affect business." Fang Hao said again.
Originally, the tavern was a very lively place. Even if someone sang and played drunkenly, everyone would cheer along.
Well, now, these people are throwing punches at them, and the whole tavern is quiet.
The business has been bad at Fang Hao Hotel these days, but now that these people are here, it seems even more deserted.
"I asked. They don't live here. They leave when the city gate closes at night." The landlady said again.
"That's okay."
Fang Hao said, mentally estimating the time it would take these people to take action.
After almost finding out the news about the light-blooded people, Fang Hao's eyes fell on the notice board again.
In the past few days since I left, two bounties appeared, [Well Ghost] and [Danger in the Surrounding Area].
[Reward: Well Ghost]
[Task: Destroy the monsters that appear in the well. 】
[Requirements: None. 】
[Reward: 5 gold coins. 】
The reward is 5 gold coins, which is too little.
Not to mention the possibility of casualties in the battle, even the cost of mobilizing troops would exceed the amount of this reward.
Continue to the second one.
【Trouble in the Village】
[Task: Solve the village’s troubles. 】
[Requirements: None]
[Reward: 15 gold coins. 】
This one didn’t even write any tasks, and didn’t give much.
"These two bounties are so small, so why don't you take the reward?" Fang Hao looked at the landlady again.
The tavern announced a reward, but there was a fee.
The reward money is not enough for the tavern.
"The nearby village has come to announce a reward. If you can help, please help. If you can do anything," the proprietress said helplessly.
"Does the City Lord's Palace not care?"
"Hmph! If you had taken care of them, they wouldn't have come to the tavern to hand out the reward. This city of Pruer is getting worse every year." The landlady sighed helplessly.
"Tell me where these two villages are, and I will go take a look then." Fang Hao said.
"Okay." The landlady pointed out the location on the map to Fang Hao.
After chatting with the proprietress for a while, Tavik arranged for someone to deliver the baby silkworms of the 'Holy Snow Silk' that had been promised.
There are a hundred of them in total, and they can be returned to be cultivated.
This amount is already the maximum amount that Tavik can produce.
Fang Hao didn't say much. To make his own dress, he still needs to purchase high-quality cloth from Tavik.
Fortunately, within a week, the pattern promised to Rebecca was produced and given to her to try on.
After chatting with the proprietress for a while, he went to the store and told Xiaobai and the others not to go out for a walk at night and to pay attention to safety.
Then he rode the monitor lizard and returned to his territory.
……
By the time the three of them returned to the city, it was getting late.
"Master, you are back." Yi'er came out with a group of maids to greet him.
Fang Hao also knew that they were worried, so he smiled and said: "It's okay, this trip went smoothly."
He handed the box containing the baby silkworms to Yi'er, "Yi'er, these are the baby silkworms of Shengxue Silk. You can send them to the silkworm room."
"Oh, okay." Yi'er took it carefully and walked towards the silkworm house.
An Jia followed Yi'er and discussed what to eat at night.
Demitja was about to leave, but was stopped by Fang Hao.
"Demitga."
"Sir, what are your orders?" Demitga asked.
"There are some light-blooded people in the city. They are the scouts of the vampire clan. They are likely to come to the territory tonight to gather information. Then you and the blood hunters will prepare and kill these people as soon as they find traces." Fang Hao directly said.
Living people are of little use to him, only dead people can show value.
"Yes, sir." Demitga agreed and walked out of the city.
Demitga left, and Fang Hao also returned to the Lord's Hall.
He sat down aside and said to the maid: "Call Sawyer, Coolin and Luke."
"Yes, Master."
Not long after, Sawyer, the skeleton cutter, Ku Lin, the blacksmith, and Luke, the gold carver, walked in one after another.
Fang Hao motioned for the three of them to sit down at the wooden table.
"This is an order I negotiated in Lysis City, and I need everyone to distribute the work."
The design drawings were placed on the table, and the three of them took turns to look at them.
"Sir, the design of this dress is quite good. I wonder if it was made by that master." Sawyer looked at the design drawing and was full of admiration.
"Oh! There is no master, so I just did it casually. Unexpectedly, the wife of the city lord of Lysis City took a fancy to it, so she placed an order with us." Fang Hao said calmly.
"This, these stockings, she also agrees?" Sawyer looked at the stockings on the design and asked.
When it comes to stockings, Fang Hao and Sawyer have big differences.
Sawyer believed that using holy snow silk to make stockings would be a waste.
The two had argued several times, and even now, he couldn't understand that the stockings were recognized by the other party.
"I agree. I have the body size of the city lord's wife. Do you think there is anything you can't achieve?" Fang Hao looked at the three of them.
The three people placed the design drawings on the table, gathered around and began to observe them carefully.
In fact, Fang Hao felt a little unsure.
After thinking about it, I asked him to come up with the design draft. It would be embarrassing if he couldn't complete it by then.
"There is no problem, all the processes can be completed." All three said there was no problem.
"Sir, the material of the dress..." Sawyer spoke again.
"The fabrics are all of high quality purchased from the cloth merchants and have been shipped to the warehouse. If there is anything missing then, you can mention it and I will go to the cloth merchants to purchase the goods." Fang Hao said.
"Okay, I'll arrange the manpower to start work immediately." Sawyer nodded and agreed.
The tailor is responsible for the clothing and stockings, so there are basically no problems.
The one with the largest amount of work is actually the gold carver.
It is necessary to carve complex patterns on the delicate chain buckles and then set the gems on them.
It looks very beautiful, but the process is also quite complicated.
Fortunately, there are many gold carving craftsmen in the territory, so when the time comes to divide the labor, the production speed can be much faster.
The three of them said that there was no problem, and Fang Hao felt relieved.
"Well, I plan to open a brand specifically to sell our works. This is the first and very important step, so everyone has been working harder these days and trying to be perfect." Fang Hao said softly.
"It's my lord."
The three of them nodded, exited the room, and returned to their respective places to start working.
……
After sending the three people away, Fang Hao also exhaled.
He picked up the fruit wine brought by the maid and drank it in one gulp.
The awesomeness of the dress has been blown out. If the three people got it back and said they couldn't finish it, then he would be embarrassed.
Although he didn't leave any mortgage for Rebecca, it would be a little difficult to develop in Lysis City in the future.
He will definitely be called a liar.
Just after he breathed a sigh of relief, the skeleton merchant Duo Jin walked in.
He saluted and said: "Lord, you have received a reply to the business alliance order you filled out last time. This is the drawing received."
Duo Jin handed over an architectural drawing.
Fang Hao was overjoyed when he heard the news.
After taking the blueprint, I also saw the blueprint information [Megalithic Tomb].
[Megalithic Mausoleum (blue): Hard and tough wood 1200, stone 3500, stone bricks 4000, leather 500, rope 450, cast iron block 200, metal parts 120, shadow stone 5. 】
(Description: This huge stone mausoleum buried deep underground is now filled with noisy and violent undead.)
It seems to be a very powerful military building.
"Sir, a new order has been placed. If you need anything, you can go to the Merchant Alliance to fill in a new order." Duojin spoke again.
Orders are replenished every 7 days, two at a time.
I've been out for a few days, and it's time to replenish my orders.
"Okay, I get it."
"Then, I won't disturb you, sir." Duo Jin bowed and left.
Fang Hao also walked out of the Lord's Mansion and built the new [Huge Stone Tomb]. (End of chapter)
