Chapter 276: Chapter 171: The New Phase of Hope Village_3
“Do you need money?” Ding Qiurou asked in surprise.
That shouldn’t be the case!
“No, I just feel like the territory will need a lot of money going forward, and the little amount we have right now might not be sufficient,” Zhou Bai replied directly.
“You’re already doing well enough, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Just take it step by step. If you need money, work hard to earn it. If that’s still not enough, ask Mom for it. The money in Mom’s hands is all yours,” Ding Qiurou said straightforwardly after listening.
Zhou Bai was sowhat moved by the earlier part of the conversation, but felt a bit helpless towards the end.
Speaking of which, her mother did indeed have more money than she did at the mont.
“There’s no need for you to subsidize anymore, Mom. The territory is making quite a bit of inco every day now; it’s just that the developnt of the territory requires large repeated investnts,” Zhou Bai said directly; she had just been slightly emotional earlier.
“You have liquid assets at hand now. Think about it, you have so many fixed assets in the entire territory, and there are tens of thousands of wood units stored in the warehouse along with various other resources. These are all tangible assets. You don’t need my money. If you’re short of cash, you can sell so assets and there would still be quite a lot,” Ding Qiurou continued.
Hearing Ding Qiurou ntion fixed assets, Zhou Bai laughed.
Yes, nowadays, she owned a hundred shops, and the monthly rent from them alone was a significant inco—a long-term one at that.
In that instant, Zhou Bai’s motivation surged.
Even if her account was out of money, she was still a bona fide landlady!
She couldn’t care as much about how much money was in the account as before, but rather how many assets she had.
Thinking about it that way, she felt much more relaxed.
They smoothly transitioned from this topic as Zhou Bai shifted the conversation, “Mom, how is Vigil doing in Hope Village now?”
Zhou Bai had been busy recently and hadn’t really checked on this rchant NPC, but she had noticed that the revenue number from the grocery store had been steadily increasing recently, indicating that this rchant was indeed capable.
“Not bad. With him, managing the Warehouse has beco more convenient, and many idle resources have been sold off. Moreover, it’s because of him that I could take a day off today!” Ding Qiurou couldn’t help but praise him as she spoke of Vigil, “As for his ti off, he often roams around the shops within the territory, trying various kinds of delicious foods every day.”
“As long as he adapts well to Hope Village and wins his heart, it will benefit the territory in the future,” Zhou Bai had very high expectations for Vigil, especially after hearing Bayer’s opinions about him.
But considering his achievents, she was very aware that given the current comrcial environnt of the territory, he might not be impressed. Rather than approaching him and getting rejected, it would be better to wait until he had a high enough affinity for Hope Village and brought it up himself.
“I think he really likes Hope Village,” Ding Qiurou affird confidently.
Although she wasn’t familiar with other territories’ specific situations, seeing the increasing number of local residents settling down recently, she could guess that the environnt in Hope Village was definitely top-notch.
Attracting local residents could surely attract the undead too.
“Yeah.” If that was the case, it couldn’t be better.
“I’ve finished dealing with things for today, I’m going to do so quests outside the territory, Mom, do you want to co along?” Zhou Bai imdiately asked.
The conditions for upgrading buildings were t, and the population was almost there; her level had to keep up.
And since it was ti to upgrade, she might as well bring her mom along.
After all, upgrading her level had no downsides.
“Sure,” Ding Qiurou nodded directly.
As the number of professionals within the territory was increasing, especially those in the life-series professions, even though she no longer followed the combat path, it would still be good to beco a professional sooner by engaging in combat.
Recently, sotis Zhou Zhengping and sotis Zhou Bai had been taking her out to level up, and she had gotten used to it.
With that, the two of them went out together.
**
At this ti in the territory, buildings for shops and residential areas in Hope Village had also rapidly started to appear.
There was plenty of activity in the territory recently; as soon as new shops and residences appeared, people imdiately noticed, and the news spread instantly.
Especially the shops.
Recently, the shops in Hope Village, especially the ones offering food, were literally making a fortune daily, and many people were envious.
Furthermore, like a rising star, anyone with a bit of sense knew that over the upcoming period, Hope Village would definitely attract a substantial number of people from outside.
