Chapter 422: Zhao Family Fort! (4)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“There’s no place for us to stay in Black Rock City anymore. We’ve thought
about it. Only you are not afraid of Black Rock City, so we want to make a living here…” Lu Ming Yuan explained.
“Is that so…”
Zhao Yu rubbed his chin.
These two days, he had been thinking about how to revitalize the business district and improve the business atmosphere of the camp. Now, someone came to give him a pillow when he was sleepy.
” Did you bring a lot of money from Black Rock City?”
“There are indeed quite a few…”
■’ The exchange ratio between Zhao Family coin and Black Rock coin is 1:1. You
can exchange some Zhao Family coin and buy a house in the my fort…”
In the past two days, Zhao Yu was ambitious and directly renamed Zhao Family Town to Zhao Family Fort.
In the wilderness, there had never been a force addressed themselves as the
level of fort.
This was something he had built for himself. It was different from a town, stronger than a town, but weaker than a city.
When he became stronger in the future, Zhao Yu would definitely change his
name and build a new city.
But for now, Zhao Family Fort would do.
“In that case, I can openly protect you all…”
“Buy real estate?”
“Public protection?!”
The rest of them focused on buying real estate.
On the other hand, Lu Ming Yuan was focused on protection. He seemed to understand something after thinking for a moment.
“You mean we can live freely in the future?!
“Of course!”
Zhao Yu nodded and said, “My Zhao Family Fort is divided into an inner and outer fortress. Guns are forbidden in the inner fortress, and you can each buy a property there…”
After a few days of expansion, the size of Zhao Family Fort had doubled again in size and various plans were being implemented in an orderly fas.h.i.+on.
The division between the inner and outer fortresses was indeed a reality.
The inner fortress was mainly for residents to live in, with only the guards allowed to carry guns.
The outer fortress was open to outsiders for trading.
With nearly a thousand more soldiers in the training camp. Zhao Yu, who was financially robust, directly allocated five hundred people to the guard battalion, responsible for the security of the entire Zhao Family Fortress.
Having been caught, the men had no other choice but to agree to Zhao Yu’s terms in order to survive.
Fortunately for them, Zhao Yu did not seize their money. Instead, they exchanged their money for Zhao family coin and each bought a property in the inner fortress.
To their surprise, the purchasing power of the Zhao family com was no less than that of the Blackstone coins.
They had thought that the Zhao family currency would have severe inflation and that exchanging it one-to-one with Blackstone coins would be a loss for them.
But it turned out that the it was the same!
Walking on the streets of the inner fortress and observing the leisurely pa.s.sersby, Lu Ming Yuan couldn’t help but remark, “This Zhao Yu is really bold, making the exchange rate of Zhao family coin equal to Blackstone coins. He’s planning to build a city!”
“Indeed, we’ve seen so much construction along the way. Not to mention a hundred thousand, even a million people could be accommodated…
Zhao Yu’s planning wasn’t developed piece by piece, but in leaps.
For example, a plot of land was divided into ABCD four areas. Zhao Yu would build an A on one side and a B on the next, leaving a large part of the area unused for future expansion.
In other wilderness forces, no one would dare to do this.
They are fearing that building too big a site would be difficult to defend. In contrast, Zhao Yu seemed to fear not building big enough to accommodate more people in the future.
in just a week, the newly built Zhao Family Fortress had already become larger than the entire area of the power plant.
More than five thousand people were busily working and their efforts were clearly evident.
Of course, this was also thanks to Zhao Yu having professional engineers and a complete set of tools and equipment.
The group quickly arrived at the commercial district.
“There seems to be a business opportunity here…
Lu Ming Yuan, sharp as ever, noticed that the area was bustling with people, but there were not many shops.
“True, there are many people here but few shops, and not many entertainment facilities…”
“We have money, why not rent a store and start something?!
The men were instantly excited by the idea.
In Black Rock City, a shop wasn’t about to get by money; it often also depended on connections.
They naturally didn’t have such opportunities, but Zhao Family Fortress was different. It was a newly established place, a hub where all industries were waiting to flourish, offering them a chance to show their skills.
Deciding to act immediately, they hurriedly approached the newly appointed vice-lord in charge of commercial affairs.
To their surprise, it was a woman and moreover, a third-tier enhancer.
Meng Xian nodded explained the rental details and signed an agreement with them.
Ever since Meng Xian became part of Zhao Yu’s team, she had wanted to go to the old city to find gasoline for him.
However, Zhao Yu didn’t let her go.
After all, Meng Xian and her team wouldn’t be able to bring back much gasoline from the old city, and Zhao Yu wasn’t interested in such a small amount.
Zhao Family Fortress was just starting and needed a trustworthy person to manage it, so he a.s.signed Meng Xian to oversee the commercial aspects of Zhao Family Fortress.
Zhao Yu trusted her not just because she was his woman.
But more so because of her fair and upright behavior at Meng House Village. Therefore, he confidently entrusted the fortress’s commercial affairs to Meng Xian.
Initially, Meng Xian felt a bit lost when Meng House Village merged into the fortress, entrusted with Zhao Yu’s confidence, she vowed not to let him down. She boldly formulated a series of policies and plans, and slowly started to implement them.
“Spread the word about Lu Ming Yuan and the others in the wild. Tell everyone that as long as they are residents of my fortress, no one dares or can harm them!”
This was Zhao Yu’s intention.
As the saying goes, “spending a fortune to buy a horse’s bone” demonstrates commitment. By doing this, he showed that Zhao Family Fortress was a force to be reckoned with, attracting many people to seek refuge.
Similarly, other forces could gauge Zhao Yu’s strength and thus engage in trade with him.
Zhao YU’S primary objective in developing Zhao Family Fortress was to engage in trade, acquiring scarce resources and oil.
As for offending the Han family by publicizing this news?
Zhao Yu had already annihilated eight hundred of the Han family’s soldiers, so what was there to worry about in terms of offending them?
Days pa.s.sed by in a flash.
What Zhao Yu didn’t expect was that, despite his cautious actions and preparations for battle. He didn’t encounter any moves from the Han family. Instead, he received a letter.
“Xu Jia Lu?!”
