Pompeii.

The sun is already very scorching, and the hot summer has demonstrated its infinite power.

Just walking in this weather will make you sweat profusely, and even cause heat stroke. But many workers have to work in this weather.

Because of survival.

For example, the lumberjacks in the north of Pompeii, and the land that has been entrusted to Alice, Amanda, six families and other partners, they have already started to develop real estate and the construction workers are responsible for the construction.

They all worked under the scorching sun.

For this matter, Luther came to the city hall and found Lelouch.

The mayor couldn't stand the heat, so he finally opened a second office, alternating between morning and afternoon to avoid the scorching sun.

In the morning, he was in the small office.

"Luther, there's no point in urging me. I need some time to collect information about the Silver Wing Territory." When Lelouch saw Luther coming, he thought it was about this matter and shrugged.

"I came here for another matter," Luther said.

"What's the matter?" Lelouch said seriously.

"Although human lives are worthless in this world, the lives of us Pompeii people are more valuable, so I want you to notify our partners and the lumberjacks managed by the city hall to prepare more water and medicine for heat stroke for the workers, and make sure no one dies from heat stroke."

Luther said.

Lelouch was stunned for a moment, because in this world there would be no lord or city lord who would care about such things. But Lelouch remembered Luther's nickname again.

"The Merciful One."

I feel relieved.

Lelouch had to admit that among all the lords he had seen, heard, and recorded in documents so far, Luther was the most kind and benevolent one.

"I'll send someone to notify them." Lelouch nodded seriously.

At this point, as the lord, Luther will only intervene in some major matters and those things that Lelouch could not imagine. Lelouch will handle all other matters.

This is a qualified mayor.

So after that, Luther talked to Lelouch and then left.

As soon as Luther returned to the castle, he saw an exquisite carriage parked outside the main body of the castle. The carriage was engraved with the emblem of the Libyan family, and Luther recognized some of the knights who followed.

"Hello, Mr. Luther."

A senior knight spoke to Luther very politely.

"Hello too, Knight of Mecca." Luther said politely, and then asked, "Is Mr. Al here?"

"Yes, sir." The Mecca Knight replied.

Luther smiled, then entered the castle and asked a passing maid, and learned that Mr. Al was on the second floor and was currently being entertained by Old Sol.

Luther went upstairs and came into the living room.

When he came to the living room, Old Saul was having a pleasant conversation with Mr. Al. Besides them, there was another gentleman whom Luther did not know.

This is old Sol's skill, generous and hospitable, this old man can get along well with everyone.

"Luther, I was just about to send someone to tell you." Old Saul said with a smile after seeing Luther.

"You guys chat." Old Thor said and left.

Luther sat in the seat where Old Sol had just sat, and said to Mr. Al, "Mr. Al, have you decided to invest in Pompeii?"

The last time Mr. Al came to urge the production of Pompeii wine, Luther persuaded Mr. Al to come to Pompeii to invest in real estate.

Last time, Mr. Al said that he would not interfere with unfamiliar business and that he would go back to ask the relevant personnel. Now that Mr. Al brought back a strange gentleman, Luther guessed the result.

"Yes." Mr. Al nodded with a smile, and then introduced: "This is Mr. Cabbe, an investment consultant, he will help me understand the situation."

"Hello, Mr. Luther." Mr. Cabey stood up and bowed.

Mr. Cabbe is a well-dressed and elegant gentleman, and he may be doing very well in the Golden City.

But like the senior knight of Mecca outside the castle, he was very polite to Luther, and even had a little humility in his politeness.

no way.

Luther is now a prestigious person in the whole of Orange, and even more so in the Golden City. No matter where you are, you have a certain amount of face.

To many, Luther was already a big shot.

"Hello too, Mr. Cabbe." Luther, not at all self-assured, stood up and bowed.

"If we want to know whether Pompeii is worth developing, there is no point sitting here. Gentlemen, follow me." Luther stood up and said.

"OK."

Mr. Al and Mr. Cabet also stood up and followed. Under the escort of the knights, they arrived at the wall on the west gate of Pompeii.

You can see the industrial park from here, it's very prosperous.

Luther said, "That is a newly established industrial park. Currently, the Pompeii Wine Factory is built there. It has 3,000 employees and a monthly production capacity of 500,000 barrels of wine. My plan is to expand the production capacity to 1 million barrels, which means 6,000 employees are needed. Mr. Al, you are the agent of Pompeii Wine in the Earldom of Libya, and you should be very aware of the potential of Pompeii Wine."

“Once the sales network of each agent is laid out, there will be absolutely no problem in selling one million barrels per month.” Mr. Al said readily.

"As for the others, there are the Pompeii wheat flour mill, Habsburg's carriage, saddle, and furniture factories. There should be many more factories in the future. An industrial zone with a population of more than tens of thousands will be formed."

"In addition to the industrial zone, I will also build an art school in Pompeii, compete with many big cities for students, and hire many artists to design and build squares and statues throughout the city, turning Pompeii into a top art city. In addition, Pompeii will be equipped with many top-notch services, hotels, opera houses, etc."

Luther introduced enthusiastically in a slightly high-pitched voice.

Mr. Al and Mr. Cabey's faces immediately showed interest. If Luther's plan was not bragging, it would indeed be a big city.

If you can participate in the real estate development here, you will definitely make huge profits.

But Mr. Al and Mr. Cabbe looked at each other but did not make a decision immediately. Mr. Cabbe bowed to Luther and said, "If possible, I would like to know more about the city plan."

"You have to ask our mayor about this. I'll take you there." Luther said with a smile.

At this moment, a guard from the Pompeii family rode up on horseback, came to the city wall panting, and said to Luther: "Knight Luther, Knight Sol sent someone to look for you."

Luther thought of this guy Newton and his expression changed slightly.

"Gentlemen, I have something to ask. This guard will take you to the city hall to meet Mayor Lelouch." Luther said to Mr. Al.

"Please go ahead." Mr. Al said with understanding.
