If he just did a shoddy job, the thatched hut would still be a thatched hut, and he would still have to pay the other party 50 million gold coins. Jiang Hao would lose a fortune.
Jiang Hao felt a little uneasy and asked, "Um, how do we just do it casually?"
Senior Sister Jiancheng muttered under her breath, "So he's a poor bastard!"
"(⊙o⊙) Huh? What did you say?"
The senior city builder smiled charmingly and said, "Oh dear, young man, you misheard... Don't worry about the details. Don't worry, young man, I am the top city builder in Lingxu. Even if I just do a casual job, it will definitely be worth your city building fee."
The senior sister Jiancheng continued lazily, "First, we need to explore your kingdom, investigate its natural environment, resources, and minerals. Then, we'll carry out environmental transformation and ecological upgrades. This is my unique skill."
"Only after these are completed can we begin the construction of the main city. Any haphazard work will only be able to be done by selecting from the main city templates; customization is not welcome."
"How about it, little brother? Want to go for it?"
Jiang Hao felt this was a bundled sale and asked timidly, "Then... then can we just build a main city and not do any environmental renovations or upgrades?"
The senior sister from Jiancheng seemed to have been provoked, shouting, "No environmental renovation and upgrades? Are you kidding me? With a place like this, who would come here if it weren't renovated?"
"Change it! Of course it needs to be changed! Let's change it now, right away!"
From afar came the shouts of tens of thousands of sows. Jiang Hao turned his head and saw tens of thousands of sows running towards him, covered in thick snow and with a thirty-minute weakened state on their heads. They had obviously just found his corpse and had just been resurrected.
I don't know what he's in such a hurry for, that he actually made the decision first?
Jiang Hao complained inwardly, "I didn't realize how expensive firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea were until I was in charge of the household!"
Tens of thousands of sows ran over and whispered in Jiang Hao's ear, "Kid, why is she here? This is an opportunity! Change, quickly agree to her request, you must change!"
Jiang Hao looked at him suspiciously, and the sows said again, "Don't be fooled by her main job of building cities. Her real specialty is environmental improvement. Let me tell you, if she just does something casually, the environmental improvement alone is worth 50 million gold coins. As for the main city, it's just a freebie."
Jiang Hao looked up and saw Senior Sister Jiancheng smiling at him. The giant tortoise, which was more than half a person's height, was still fast asleep, making it impossible for Jiang Hao to discern its true nature.
"You're going to refuse such a good opportunity? You're a wild boar who can't appreciate fine chaff! Do you know how many major cities have offered high prices to invite her to renovate the kingdom? Do you know how many major cities she's already rejected? I don't know what wind blew her here today. Kid, the opportunity is in your hands, you'd better seize it!"
Jiang Hao was tempted.
But he still had some concerns: "Um, could I take a look at the main city template first?"
"I'm sorry, the main city template is for me to choose from. I will select the most suitable main city for you based on the surrounding geographical environment."
The senior student from Jiancheng explained coldly, "It's not open to the public!"
Jiang Hao was still somewhat unwilling: "Could you first test the environment and make a renovation plan for me to see?"
"I can give you a portion of the money first, and if I'm satisfied, I'll pay you for the rest of the renovations!"
"Okay, okay, 30 million for environmental exploration. Poor bastards make a lot of trouble!"
The last sentence from Senior Sister Jiancheng was almost inaudible, so Jiang Hao called out again, "(⊙o⊙) Huh? What did you say?"
"Sorry, sorry, it was a slip of the tongue, please don't worry about the details!"
At the urging of tens of thousands of sows, Jiang Hao reluctantly paid a deposit of 30 million yuan.
Senior Sister Jiancheng crossed her arms and made no move. The giant tortoise behind her raised its head and opened its eyes. A sharp light shot out from its eyes and pierced straight into the sky.
After the light disappeared, Jiang Hao saw the giant tortoise's eyes, which were as deep as if they contained the entire snowstorm of the northern ice plains.
Jiang Hao thought to himself, "Good turtle!"
The giant tortoise took a few steps on the ice, causing the entire northern ice plains to tremble. Then, it leaped into the Immovable River, a river capable of freezing even a Dark Gold-level Skeleton Lord, and disappeared from sight.
Jiang Hao was about to say something to remind her, but when he saw Senior Sister Jiancheng's lazy appearance, he quickly shut up.
Why go through all that trouble?
A few minutes later, the giant turtle emerged from the still, black river. It was soaking wet, and as soon as it surfaced, the river water froze into icicles. The giant turtle stomped its right foreleg on the ground, and the icicles all over its body crackled and fell off, leaving no part of it wet.
The giant turtle's display of power had completely stunned Jiang Hao. He knew that even the epic-level skeletons hadn't dared to venture into the river. The fact that this giant turtle could stay submerged for five minutes was a testament to its formidable strength.
Senior Sister Jiancheng swept her long black hair back and said lazily, "The kingdom's environment has been thoroughly investigated. It's a vast ice plain, with grass under the ice and ice on top of the grass."
After waiting for a long time without hearing anything from Senior Sister Jiancheng, Jiang Hao asked uncertainly, "Nothing...that's all?"
30 million gold coins, and this is all you found?
"It's gone!"
What the hell? There's grass under the ice, and ice on the grass?! This is ridiculous!
With my big eyes, can't I see what's under my feet?
Jiang Hao's body went limp, and he stumbled back two steps, almost fainting.
Jiang Hao steadied the tens of thousands of sows and said, "Sir... what about your transformation plan?"
Senior Sister Jiancheng lazily tossed her long hair and said lightly, "I suggest abandoning the renovation!"
Jiang Hao let out a groan and fainted. Before losing consciousness, he vaguely heard the sounds of tens of thousands of sows.
"Senior sister, please stop teasing him."
When Jiang Hao slowly woke up, the wind and snow had stopped. He smelled a chilly air, mixed with a faint fragrance.
Jiang Hao then realized that he was sitting on a wooden recliner, and not far in front of him, tens of thousands of sows and Senior Sister Jiancheng were standing together talking about something.
The two of them were standing a little too close!
Jiang Hao stretched and jumped off the recliner, startling the tens of thousands of sows and Senior Sister Jiancheng.
"Alright, the person's awake. Hurry up and pay, I have to rush to the next place."
Jiang Hao then realized that he was standing on a magnificent ice city. All around him were rows of buildings, each with its own unique style, yet all complementing each other beautifully.
A gentle north wind blew by, without a trace of coldness, but rather a refreshing coolness mixed with the fragrance of flowers.
Jiang Hao, unsure of his surroundings, asked the thousands of sows, "Where is this?"
A giggle came from the side, accompanied by Jiancheng's senior sister's still-lazy voice: "Why don't you just open the map and you'll know?"
