He merely had subsequent arrangements in mind.

"Yes, Puo is still too small.

First, we will resume operations, and I plan to open stores in various orc cities later on, for which I will need your assistance, Fong Ho said between chews.

After Fong Hao unified the Orc territories, they were no longer as chaotic.

He intended to establish hot pot restaurants in bustling cities like Mana Market and Cold Wind City, where there was a significant flow of population.

Of course, this was merely a preliminary idea, and the acceptance of hot pot flavors by the orcs would require validation through market testing.

Regardless, and Jia, and the fox girls had shown a preference for it.

Yes, master.

I will do my utmost, Shiaoi replied, her heart brimming with joy as she made a loud promise.

The master clearly valued her, and future business affairs would be entrusted to her.

Like a thief, Shiao by stealthily surveyed her surroundings, glancing at the serene Fong Hao.

Her face slightly flushed as she leaned closer.

This sudden movement caused Fong Hao, who had been resting, to open his eyes wide.

Shiao by gazed at him with tenderness, her eyes sparkling with a triumphant glint.

Ah, can one truly blame Kinghao? Chapter 291.

Choosing real estate the following day at dawn, Fonhao awoke from his slumber and glanced at the still sleeping sea by beside him.

He gently shifted the leg draped over his waist and lightly tapped her rounded backside, prompting her to slightly open her eyes.

H it's time to rise.

We are heading to Pearl City today.

Perhaps it was due to the prolonged closure of the shop or the days of rest within the territory, but Xiaoi surprisingly slept in later than Fong Ho.

Suddenly, Xiaoi was fully alert.

Just yesterday, she had taken the initiative to inquire when they would reopen the shop.

Yet today, she had slumbered more soundly than her master.

She turned to sit up, assisting Fongo in dressing before dawning her own coat.

Upon opening the door and cautiously peeking outside, she quickly dashed out.

Fongo stretched lazily and after a brief wash, descended the stairs.

Er was preparing breakfast and she displayed no hint of awkwardness upon seeing Xiao by rush down.

Good morning, master.

Eer greeted with a smile.

Fongghao yawned and returned a subtle smile to Eur countenance.

After a moment of contemplation, he spoke.

Let breakfast be simple today.

Inform the maids that they have a day off.

I shall take you all to Pool City to shop for things you fancy.

Pool City had become an affiliated city of Fongghao, making it a delightful destination for the maids to unwind.

Remaining cooped up within the territory surrounded by undead creatures could potentially lead to psychological issues.

What if they become increasingly eccentric? Really? Can we all go? Before Eer could respond, two rabbit maids responsible for cleaning gasped in excitement at the prospect of venturing out with Fong Ho.

Yes, but once we arrive, do not wander off.

If you get lost, there will be no way to find you.

Fongghao replied with a smile.

Hooray! Thank you, master.

The maids cheered joyfully.

Eer smiled gently and instructed the maids.

"All right, no need to clean here anymore.

Spread the word and prepare everyone.

We shall depart once the master has finished breakfast.

" Understood.

The maids cheered and rushed out of the lord's manner.

After breakfast, Fongghao proceeded to craft 101 merchant carriages.

Xiaoi directed the skeletons to load the spices and hot pot utensils from the warehouse onto the carriages.

Meanwhile, the other maids, organized by Eer, dawn their finest attire, eagerly awaiting their journey to Pearl City.

Funa stood aside, observing Eur and Anja engage in conversation.

Before long, Xiaoi approached, signaling that preparations were complete and everything needed was loaded onto the carriages.

Master, I am ready.

We can set off now, she said softly.

Very well, let us board the carriages.

Fongghao beckoned and all the maids climbed aboard.

The convoy then set forth from the territory heading towards Pearl City.

2 hours later, the convoy arrived at Pearl City.

A sudden influx of enchanting rabbit girl foxes with fair skin created quite a stir.

The maid surrounded IR joyfully exploring the streets.

Residents gathered along the roads, captivated by the youthful vigor of these beast women.

For a moment, the maids led the way while a throng of onlookers followed.

Drawn to the lively spectacle within the lord's manner of Pearl City, Fonghouse sat on an intricately carved wooden chair with Anja beside him.

Opposite them was the current lord Tavc, once a well-known cloth merchant in the city.

My lord, the city has returned in normaly and news of my succession has been dispatched to the federal council.

It shouldn't be long before we receive a response.

Tavac stated his lifelong ambition had been to expand the family cloth business.

Yet, he never anticipated being elevated to the position of lord, transitioning from managing textiles to governing an entire city.

As Tav learned more about Fong Ha, his respect deepened.

It became clear that Fong Hao commanded formidable armies comprising humans, beastmen, and the undead.

The villagers rescued from the Blood Clan spoke of the significant presence of dragon-type soldiers among their liberators.

This wealth of information left Havoc both trembling with excitement and grateful for his alliance with Fonggha.

All is proceeding smoothly.

I have arranged for the troops to launch an offensive on the Radium Moon Heights.

You should bolster the city defenses to prevent the Blood Clan from retaliating in desperation.

Funghow remarked, sipping from a cup of fruit wine.

He was quite pleased with Tavac's efficiency.

The matter of the Blood Clan's collusion with Sirill was deafly brushed aside, presenting a seamless transition of power that earned Fong how the trust and support of the city's remaining dignitaries.

Understood.

I will immediately arrange for an increase in the number of cityguards, Tav replied, gesturing to a servant behind him who brought forth a small sand table.

Though modest, the sand table clearly depicted the layout of Pearl City as streets and buildings.

While not within the purview of the Lord's records, it still allowed for easy identification of each structures location.

My lord, these 12 vacant manners in the city, how would you like to proceed with them? Tav continued.

The manners have become available following Fong Hao's elimination of Sirill<unk>'s followers who were among the city's elite.

Thus, their residences warranted the term manner.

This one appears quite suitable.

Fongghao indicated a house near the Lord's manor.

The property featured a courtyard and ample living space, making it ideal for the maids.

A keen eye, my lord.

This residence was previously occupied by the Minister of Internal Affairs and is now vacant, Tavet complimented.

That explains its size.

I shall take this one.

The rest can be sold off at your discretion, Fongghao declared.

Understood, my lord, having acquired the keys to their new abode.

Fong Hao and Tavoc engaged in conversation for a brief moment before departing from the Lord<unk>'s manor.

Upon exiting the city lord's estate, Fongghao made his way to the establishment known as Laauang, where he met up with Shiaoi.

The trio then proceeded towards the newly acquired residence.

As they traversed the streets, they arrived in the affluent district characterized by its pristine roads and the elegantly attired populace.

They approached the former residence of the minister of internal affairs.
