At this time, Zhou Bai did not know that there were people among this group of nobles who knew the inside story of Lovisa City. After finishing the matters on the contract, she was already waiting for what Marquis Boyle promised.
"Bayer, do you think I should wait? Or should I take the initiative to ask?" Zhou Bai asked directly.
The contract has been signed, and there is no way the other party will be greedy for this thing.
But there is a difference between getting it early and getting it late.
The sooner you get it, the more it belongs to you.
Seeing Zhou Bai's anxiety, Bayer felt a little helpless.
But in my heart, I still admire Zhou Bai a little bit.
Zhou Bai accepted the reality much faster than him. His psychological quality was much stronger than his.
After thinking about it, Bayer replied: "Marquis Boyle will not do such a thing. He wants to show you favor in public. Once he hears the news, he will definitely give you the things. Just wait."
"Well, let's wait first!" Zhou Bai nodded.
...
...
While waiting, she did not waste any time, opened the lord's control panel, and began to look at the task center.
She had originally planned to open the mission center.
Before opening it, she planned to learn more about the mission center and decide how to open it. Should she give residents access to it? If so, to what extent would it be better?
While Zhou Bai was thinking carefully, Marquis Boyle and his party on the other side had already learned about this.
"Hope Village is really efficient." Carlisle said with some surprise.
In the city of Loviisa, such decisions have to go through layer after layer before they can be made, especially when it comes to recruiting people, as the conflicts of interest involved can take a long time to work through.
Of course, if the Marquis has spoken, it must be done as soon as possible.
But Hope Village is under the jurisdiction of the village chief Zhou Bai.
"The operation mode of Hope Village is quite special. Even ordinary residents can become officials. No wonder there is a steady stream of residents flowing into Hope Village." Theodore's tone was full of sighs, and there was a hint of envy in his heart.
Even though he was the illegitimate son of Lord Boyle, it was almost impossible for him to get involved in power, especially since the families of his brothers' mothers were in important departments and positions in the city of Lovisa. They would not give him a chance and create more rivals for his brothers.
Fortunately, although he had no power, he had wealth. He managed the caravan under the name of the lord's mansion and could gain a lot of benefits from it.
But in comparison, if one can gain power, who would be willing to be a businessman!
Just like Zhou Bai, the village chief of Hope Village, who is obviously not as strong as him, but because of his identity as the village chief of Hope Village, his status is higher than him, and he can even be "equal" to his father.
Marquis Boyle heard the envy in his tone, glanced at him sideways, and said nothing more. Then he searched in his storage space, took out a space scroll, and handed it to Carlisle, "Give this to the mayor of Hope Village!"
He was unwilling to give too good a gift, but what he gave was enough to give an explanation to Hope Village.
"Yes." Carlisle said quickly.
"After that, go back to the hotel. I'm going back to Lovisa City." Marquis Boyle said directly. He hurried to Hope Village just to see Hope Village.
Now that he has seen it, he also knows why Hope Village was able to defeat Fasal Village. He still needs to deal with follow-up matters, so it is indeed not suitable for him to stay in Hope Village.
"Are you in such a hurry? I..." Theodore couldn't help but speak after listening. He came here to do business, and the business hasn't been concluded yet! If he just followed him back, he would lose a lot.
"You continue to stay here and do business with Hope Village according to your ideas." Marquis Boyle saw what Theodore was thinking and said directly.
"Yes." Theodore responded quickly, looking somewhat relieved.
It was obvious that if the business of Hope Village was successful, he would be able to gain a lot of benefits in Loviisa City. In addition to the economic benefits, he should also be able to establish good relationships with many families and businessmen.
He couldn't miss such a good opportunity.
If I had gone back with my father first and then come back, who knows if I would have missed such an opportunity.
Because the news that my father is chasing their team must have been known by many people in Lovisa City. They will definitely think that my father cares about Hope Village. Once they think so, they will focus on Hope Village and compete with my father for this market.
Marquis Boyle knew what Theodore was thinking and didn't care.
For him, the one who stands out among the competition among his sons is the candidate that satisfies him.
Afterwards, Theodore followed Lord Boyle more attentively.
In Lovisa Village, it is basically impossible for him to be alone with his father. He cherishes his father very much and must work hard to improve his favorability.
Lord Boyle was quite at ease with Theodore's attentions.
Then, the two of them walked slowly towards the hotel. The soldiers who followed them stood closely in front and behind to clear the way, and then lined up for them to buy what they wanted when they needed it.
Compared to his previous hasty visit, the Marquis Boyle was now truly interested in strolling around Hope Village.
Strolling along the commercial street of Hope Village and enjoying delicious food of different flavors was indeed a rare and pleasant time for Marquis Boyle.
Hope Village is a great place for vacation!
It can be seen that Hope Village will develop in this direction in the future.
In this way, the development of Hope Village can be said to be multi-faceted, and it is very likely that they will support each other and develop more firmly.
When thinking of this, Marquis Boyle couldn't help but frown. If he allowed Hope Village to continue to develop like this, would he really be able to control it in the future?
But on second thought, he couldn't think of a way to curb Hope Village now, so it would be better to just monitor them silently from behind and look for the right opportunity.
Now he has two choices. One is to continue to hand it over to Fasar Village and increase the investment in Fasar Village so that he can fight Hope Village again. The other is to focus on the territory at the town level and wait for Hope Village to be promoted to a town before harvesting it.
After thinking it over, Marquis Boyle was more inclined to
After making the decision, Marquis Boyle felt more at ease, with a faint smile on his lips.
Theodore, who was standing by, couldn't help but shudder when he saw the appearance of his father.
According to his understanding, his father must be plotting against someone because he was laughing like that.
Forget it, as long as you don't plot against him.
On the other side, Carlisle also met Zhou Bai smoothly, and then handed the things given by Marquis Boyle to Zhou Bai.
"Thank you." Zhou Bai was quite happy to see that he got what he had been longing for.
Especially since all of these are free.
Looking at the smile on Zhou Bai's face, Carlisle pursed his lips. He did not expect that the chief of Hope Village in front of him would have the courage to bargain with his Lord Marquis, and succeed.
Although he had a higher opinion of her in his heart, he was still dissatisfied with her disrespectful attitude towards the Marquis.
Thinking of the fact that the Marquis was about to leave, he directly pointed out: "The Marquis is about to leave..."
"Have a nice trip then, and welcome back in the future!" Zhou Bai responded quickly to Carlisle's words, "By the way, please give your regards to the Marquis."
Carlisle: “…”
Then, with a snort, Carlisle turned and left.
Zhou Bai raised his eyebrows as he watched Carlisle leave angrily.
"It's just a gift to Marquis Boyle. It doesn't take much effort." Bayer said directly.
"My attitude has been like this from the beginning. I will stick to it! And this can be regarded as showing my attitude. There are other lords in the territory. We can't let them think that our territory is completely dependent on the city of Lovisa. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to the future development of our territory. Maybe one day what Marquis Boyle did will be exposed and it will involve us. In the end, he will suppress me openly and deal with me secretly, and he will not give up his plan because of my good face. It's impossible for me to give him a good face!" Zhou Bai said bluntly.
She also has backbone.
"...Yeah." Bayer nodded.
In fact, he should have known that his lord did not distinguish between high and low people, so he made no difference to her whether they were noble or not. The difference was in how they treated Hope Village.
On the contrary, he was unable to truly synchronize his thinking with that of the lord, and was still influenced by inherent class concepts.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he found that it sounded quite good to him?
Hope Village has indeed created a different world without anyone noticing!
"Forget about them, let's see what they gave us." Zhou Bai said, and directly opened the space scroll.
As the space scroll unfolded, the contents inside suddenly appeared on the scroll in the form of pictures.
[Item: Mortar]
[Introduction: A flexible siege weapon that is easy to carry and can shoot at targets behind cover.]
[Level: Gold]
[Item: Battering Hammer]
[Introduction: Can attack the city wall in the shortest time. ]
[Level: Gold]
[Item: Defense Magic Circle]
[Introduction: Increases the defense of the city wall. The duration is determined by the quality of the magic stone.]
[Level: Gold]
"These things are indeed good, but they are obviously more like offensive weapons. The only magic circle for defending the city is also quite consuming. Their intention to help Hope Village is indeed not sincere." After reading it, Bayer made a judgment based on his own knowledge.
Zhou Bai listened and understood what Bayer meant, but he smiled, "I think it's good. It's free anyway, and I'm mentally prepared. From another perspective, the things given by Marquis Boyle further prove that he is the man behind Fasal Village, and he is still obsessed with the thieves in Hope Village."
The enemy in the dark is more terrifying than the enemy in the open.
