Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Lord Su Wan, the literacy rate of the territory has increased. Now, most of the residents know basic words and phrases and can read simple announcements on the notice boards. Next, we’re planning to introduce more complex literature for them.”

The conferences in the territory had been adjusted for the public. The project for increasing literacy and encouraging reading among the residents was already in place.

“With the increase in the literacy rate, the project is speeding up. The first batch of books would be revised and distributed in two months. These books are all about experiences accumulated over a long period of time in the relevant fields, and there were also many exclusive secrets, which would be of great help to novice apprentices.”

“In addition, the administrative department has been set up. It is currently divided into five departments: the Ministry of People, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Weapons, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Commerce. All the workers in the territory have been put under these ministries, depending on the type of work they do.”

“The name list has been prepared. We are waiting for you to appoint the managers of these ministries, Lord Su Wan.”

Timo described the ministries in great detail for Su Wan’s sake.

Su Wan listened very attentively to his report. She asked him directly if she had any doubts. Although she had left for only 15 days, the changes in the territory had been drastic.

“You did well, Timo,” said Su Wan. “Please arrange a ceremony tomorrow. I’ll appoint the relevant ministers for the ministries. As for the other government affairs, just carry them out according to the established plan. If you have any problem with it, report back to me. Mestre is now in charge of the Lavender Business Guild in Canglan City. That is the new Chamber of Commerce of our territory. It is our window to the outside world. Whatever Mestre needs, please help her with it.”

“Understood, My Lord.”

Su Wan trusted Timo. She knew he was responsible and meticulous in his work.

“Alright. If there is nothing else, I am heading to the blacksmith.”

Timo nodded and left. Su Wan finished her tea and went to meet Sam, the blacksmith. The guards at the door bowed to Su Wan.

All the troops were extremely loyal to the Lord. The undead were even more loyal than the rest.

As soon as she entered the smithy, the apprentices bowed to her. They were overjoyed to see Su Wan.

“My Lord, you’re back!”

Su Wan smiled at them. She then headed up to the second floor.

Angel was at the forge, holding a long hammer that was almost as tall as herself.

Angel turned around and saw Su Wan standing at the door. “My Lord, you’re back!” She looked delighted.

“Your letter has been delivered. This is the reply.” Su Wan retrieved a letter from the system space and handed it to Angel.

When Su Wan announced that she was going to Canglan City, Angel had given her a letter to deliver to her father.

Su Wan had given it to Zorro to be delivered at that time.

Angel excitedly tore open the letter. “My father tells me to do my best for the territory, My Lord.”

“That’s great,” said Su Wan. “Thank you for your effort. How is your research going?”

Su Wan had obtained a Strengthening Crystal in one of her expeditions. It could be used to improve the skills of the troops. She had handed it to Angel to do her research. The young girl was absolutely passionate about researching weapons and the troop’s potential.

“Lord Su Wan, I got new inspiration from it. I’m trying out something regarding attack technology of the territory.” Angel looked excited. “My method could even strengthen the Night Devil Bees beyond expectations!” “There’s no need to go into so much detail. Just do it. I have absolute trust in you. If you need any resources, you can ask Timo. We aren’t short on resources like before. You can go crazy with your research this time with full freedom,” said Su Wan.

Angel grinned.

Su Wan knew that the girl was capable of so much, and she would support her unconditionally.

When Angel threw herself back into her work, Su Wan went to see the one-armed blacksmith, Sam.

Sam had his own workshop. He looked very happy to see her.

Su Wan asked about the progress of the special attack technology that he was currently developing. She encouraged him further and told him not to worry about the lack of resources anymore.

After leaving the smithy, Su Wan checked the interface to confirm whether she had met all the requirements for upgrading the territory to Level 4. She was nervous and excited.

[Territory Core Upgrade Requirements]

[Land Area: 10 square kilometers (Achieved)]

[Total amount of resources has reached 2000 tons (Achieved)]

[Possess 20 buildings (Achieved)]

[A population of 20000 people (Achieved)]

Su Wan was ecstatic to see that she could finally do it! Xu Yuan could advance to Level 100 now!

She wasted no time and directly headed toward the Dark Caste. She began to prepare to upgrade the Territory Core.

In Canglan City, dozens of carriages entered through the gate.

The pedestrians made way for the carriage in respect and reverence. The guards didn’t stop the convoy.

The Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce was of special status in Canglan City. It was not only the largest merchant association in the city but also protected the city from all dangers.

If not for the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce, Canglan City wouldn’t even exist.

The president of the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce sat in one of the carriages and looked out of the window.

Her flawless face was serious. She looked regal. However, her elegance gave people the impression that this person was not someone to mess with..
