Oro New Town.
In the original Tacoma area, it was the second largest city after Tacoma City. However, after the last period, it became the largest city in the area and renamed the area after Oro. The entire city is also in the process of expansion and renovation.
In the spacious courtyard located in the wealthy area, Diwala has been paying attention to the building next to it for a long time. These days, there are workers speeding up the work every night. Although the distance is still quite far, the sound can always be heard from the other side of the hill.
At this time, someone will always frown
"Why is there always construction going on over there these days? It's going on day and night, and it's disturbing my sleep!"
The one who spoke was the daughter of the Diwala family. She had the usual golden hair and delicate face of a southern girl, and she was dressed elegantly and gracefully like a young girl.
The Diwala family wasn't aristocratic, but they were considered a prominent family in Oro City, having settled there since their great-grandfather's generation. Although they started out as a watchmaker, their efforts and continued expansion gradually led them to become one of the wealthiest families in Oro City, and their descendants also achieved considerable success.
Gradually, there are professions such as inspector, captain of guards and priests, which are not limited to merchants. Although the wealthy families do not have the explicit control over a region, they do not need to give up some of their offspring in order to achieve the only inheritance like the nobles. Many wealthy families are integrated as a whole. If you look at their influence alone, they can even reach half of the city, which is quite remarkable.
"Hey, maybe that wealthy businessman wants to build a villa in that area again. But the property prices in that area are very high. I really don't know which businessman would choose such an unprofitable deal."
A man with an exquisite beard sitting opposite the girl said this.
The youngest generation of the Dilwara family consisted of only two people, a boy and a girl, who were siblings. Since their parents were still alive and the Dilwara family no longer needed them, they spent most of their time like idle rich boys and girls, only occasionally using their pocket money to start small businesses to make ends meet.
"But the scenery in that area should be nice. I remember that it was not allowed to be sold before. I don't know why it is allowed to be sold now. I will go to the Urban Management Center to ask later." The girl said unhappily.
Although the Diawara family is rich, they are not a family that can do whatever they want. Many times, even the management of a city gate can cause them problems.
Of course, most of the time, people in the city are unwilling to mess with the Diawara family!
"Forget it. Even if they agree, it will cost a lot of money. I don't think it's necessary." Compared to his sister, the brother always tries to save money.
"How can that be! Our Diwala family also deserves an environment that is more suitable for living. Besides, such land can be bought and then sold at a high price. We can negotiate with the buyer." From the tone of her voice, it can be seen that my sister is still unwilling to give up such a good location.
"No need to discuss, we can't buy that place!"
Just as the two siblings were struggling, a voice came from the other side.
"Father!"
They both stood up to greet
A middle-aged man in his forties with a goatee walked over.
Orlando Diawara.
He is the father of the two siblings and the real owner of this family.
"Father, what did you mean when you said we can't buy it?" the man continued with his previous question.
Orlando found a place to sit down, and the servant next to him sensibly brought him a cup of morning tea while he looked at the houses built on the hills in the distance.
"This is the news I just received recently. The owner of that villa over there will be the residence of the new earl."
"Count? The rumored new Count of Oro region? His name seems to be Sean, yes. Count Sean Weigel." The man suddenly remembered the name.
"That Count Sean Weigel?!!"
"Yes, his residence is over there. That's what I'm going to say next. Philo, and Charles, from today on, whenever you meet any worker or anyone going to the house over there, you must be more friendly to them. If possible, you can offer them some tea and snacks." Orlando said to his two children.
"Why?"
I glanced at my son next to me, hoping I wouldn't see so much confusion in his eyes.
"Oh, I understand, father. We need to have a good relationship with the future lord of Oro City, right?" Charles finally expressed his thoughts.
Smiled with relief.
"That's right. No matter what kind of person the new Earl is, it's best for us to have a good relationship with him."
"But our Diwala family also has a high reputation in Oro City!"
Orlando shook his head.
"People have always preferred to step on others, never to push them along. Don't go against those in power. This is how we, the Diawara family, survive."
Looking at the two children, they finally nodded!
On the other side, Sean and others who were already on the road to Oro City were still moving forward.
"My Lord, I still don't think it's right. Should we go back to Shanggu Town and see what I think is wrong there."
"What could be the problem?"
I have heard it several times this morning. Almost all the members of the army had a terrible dream last night. A huge planet suddenly appeared in the sky, and in the center of the planet there was a giant eye staring at the earth, and also staring at themselves!
The creepy feeling was so terrifying even in dreams that it even paralyzed people.
This statement left Sean speechless. How could one be paralyzed even in a dream?
Fortunately, this terrifying dream didn't last too long, only a short while later, and then there was another sweet dream. But strangely, I couldn't wake up. Even the next day, when Sean asked everyone to leave that day, I was still thinking about the nightmare scenes from last night.
"I have the same feeling. Is it really okay? My Lord Earl." Even Ross on the side began to ask doubtfully.
Why would this scholar, who seemed very knowledgeable before, suddenly ask questions at this time? Could it be that the Eye of Ghroth was driving them crazy?
"After all, it's someone else's territory. There's no good result if we continue to stay there. If Lord Ross has any ideas, he can come here and stay for a few more days." Sean said.
"It's nothing, just a little weird. There are many weird places in this world, but at least this place is pretty good." Ross could only shake his head in the end.
There are indeed many strange places in this world, and it is actually great to be able to come to a dream place like Shanggu Town.
This is why Sean chose to leave.
The wood elf has no intention of harming anyone, it's just that its way of survival is a little different from that of others.
