Chapter 2537

"Understood!"

Immediately after, Zhao Chi told Qi Yue his ideas and arrangements.

Qi Yue nodded and immediately went to find Feng Xiu and Ding Dang.

Zhao Chi wasted not a moment and headed straight for the Mission Hall.

Since Zhao Chi needed the materials urgently and the quantity wasn't large, he directly set a tenfold bounty.

He also purchased the promotion service.

It shouldn't take long to gather everything.

After all, that was ten times the price.

Buying them all would probably cost 100,000 gold coins.

Now, money really does flow like water.

Previously, Zhao Chi would spend a single silver coin slowly; now, he posts a 100,000 gold coin bounty without blinking an eye.

It's truly different now.

Just a moment later, Qi Yue returned.

"My lord, it's all arranged. Feng Xiu and Ding Dang and the others have selected 1,000 artisan sisters, and according to your instructions, they have been subdivided by different fashion styles and different equipment. They have already begun production practice."

"Good, thank you for your hard work."

"What hard work is there? What other task do you have for me?"

"There is no task for you alone, but there is a task for the two of us."

"So we're starting production now?"

"That's right!"

"Great, my lord, please come in."

"Not yet. Come with me to Chaoge Town first; after we return, we can begin production."

"Mm! Alright."

Chaoge Town was in a state of chaos.

Su Qin transported batches upon batches of the newly purchased female slaves back.

Although Chaoge Town has the largest area, the female slaves must be concentrated in one place, so it really does look overcrowded for now.

The number of female slaves purchased this time was a bit excessive... excluding flower spirits and rat people, there are 80,000 in total.

With them included, it's nearly 100,000.

Of course, there would be a brief period of chaos and crowding.

These slaves were bought in such large numbers because Zhao Chi made a sudden decision; no long-term planning was done.

It was simply because he had money and could buy, so he bought them all.

Therefore, living quarters and various facilities have not yet been built.

The burden on the Fang Li Construction Team instantly increased.

But it doesn't matter.

Slaves can sleep outdoors too.

Chaoge Town is tropical, so it's no big deal.

Moreover, for now, they can soak in the Xiaoyao Spring to keep warm.

On one hand, this makes them addicted to the extreme comfort and buffs of the Xiaoyao Spring, keeps their mood excellent, and speeds up the increase in their obedience.

On the other hand, it reduces their sleep requirements, keeping them awake for more time.

In this way, one bed can be used by multiple people in shifts, solving sleep needs for a short time.

Killing two birds with one stone.

More time can be spent on learning farming and other work, striving to adapt to work requirements as soon as possible, so the previous male slave laborers can be sold off.

After all, male slave laborers cannot receive the collar buffs and will be eliminated and sent to other lords.

At this moment, Wei Leng led the Moon Clan female soldiers, An Ning led the Jade Clan female soldiers, and all those female overseers arrived.

They were all supervising the newly arrived female slaves.

Although the scene was chaotic, it was orderly within the chaos; with them present, there were no problems.

Zhao Chi came here not for the female slaves.

But for planting the World Tree.

The current layout of Chaoge Town has been planned; farmland and granaries are adjacent.

Granary clusters exist in every direction.

Slave laborer dormitories and living areas have also been divided into several large sections and planned construction is complete.

Although there is still some empty land.

But this empty land has also been planned; it is all for building granaries and slave living areas.

Therefore, the current layout should not be changed anymore.

Then we can only open up a new area.

Activate the Territory Configuration Interface.

【Please set territory configuration】

【Configuration points: 414】

Zhao Chi had been saving his configuration points all along, not spending them recklessly; now he still has 414 points, which is a lot.

Farmland does not need extra opening up for now; only some areas need to be allocated to the World Tree.

Consume 10 points to configure 10 plots of land, each 1 square kilometer, totaling 10 square kilometers.

This much land is already equivalent to the initial area of a territory.

For the Eternal Tree, it's certainly enough.

If not enough, add more.

Zhao Chi placed all his land plots along the northern edge of the map.

A new patch of land immediately appeared north of Chaoge Town.

It doesn't look as nice as a circle.

But it must be done this way.

Zhao Chi had seen just how large the Eternal Tree could grow—it truly blocked out the sun and sky.

So it must be built to the north; if built to the south, it would block vast stretches of sunlight.

Although Li Ruanyu said the Eternal Tree boosts all plants, blocking sunlight probably isn't good, right?

Then let's place it to the north for now.

Then another 4 points were spent, exchanging for four plots of fertile soil.

The four plots of fertile soil were small, only equal to four farmland plots.

But the growth rate of the Eternal Tree is still unknown; for now, four plots of fertile soil are certainly sufficient.

If more are needed later, just add them.

And this way, the configuration points left exactly 400—easy to remember and satisfying for perfectionists.

Everything is perfect.

Configuration complete, click confirm!

Huh~

Suddenly, a gentle breeze swept through all of Chaoge Town.

Qi Yue's long hair fluttered forward, and she quickly tied it back behind her head.

The wind blew toward the north.

The white mist wall rapidly vanished.

Soon after, a vast new region appeared in the north.

The white mist farther north became the new boundary of the mist wall.

In the exact center of the ten-square-kilometer northern area lay a patch of black soil.

That was where the fertile soil was located.

But fertilizer was still lacking.

Zhao Chi entered Qi Yue's body and rushed to the fertilizer workshop, temporarily crafting some gold-slime fertilizer and gold-block fertilizer.

The quantity was small.
