After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 226

Micheal cleared his throat, repeating his words as if to confirm, "She… she brought in Terran plants?"

"Yes. She already rented several farms dedicated to them."

There was silence for a while before the lord broke it, with his back resting on his chair, losing a little of his composure. "Your sister is amazing. Most people… really won’t think of this direction."

Even he, who had a lot of resources at his disposal, thought to fill his space with weapons and basic supplies.

"Well, she’s a bit… obsessed," Ansel said with an awkward but fond smile.

Anything his sister did was cute and logical. If it wasn’t, the world was wrong.

"Well, it improved the lives of the people in your territory." Micheal told him, "This alone makes her a hero."

"Of course!" He agreed very strongly. Not only in the territory, other people would also enjoy the benefits very soon.

Micheal was extremely interested and excited, although he maintained a cool facade. He leaned down and placed his elbow on the table, placing his hands together.

"So… if we hope to make a deal, what would your sister say?"

Ansel mirrored his body language, smiling. "She gave me full power on this."

"Okay, good."

[2 Hours Later]

"You… are very good," Micheal said, extending his hand for a handshake. However, if one knew him well enough, one would see his expression was a bit darker than usual.

Ansel was very smug. Even though he was young, he was told by everyone he was a very skilled businessman.

Micheal was not easy either and there were times that he felt an invisible dagger threaten him.

But who told him to have all the cards?

So, Micheal had to succumb, buying a fixed amount for 100% more than the Alteran market price.

They also had to pick up the goods themselves.

Althea had said that non-residents would have to buy goods in the territory for at least thrice the price, even more for the luxury items. So this was not a bad deal at all.

What actually irked Micheal was the fact that he had to let go of 5 construction talents for every month the deal was in effect.

Then he would let them work in Altera for free for that month. That was, he’d be paying these talents’ salaries.

Micheal was dark just thinking about it, his calm but sharp stare targeting the redhead whose face was so happy and proud that everyone on his side wanted to punch him.

Ansel naturally felt it, but he was feeling too accomplished to care.

He got them more construction talents~

Ansel’s lips twitched. "Of course!" He said, "She’s one of the designated ’Elders’ there. This is basically the head of a department." _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}
