The area of the territory had expanded, and the once relatively close barracks now lay even further away, rely a blurry shadow in the distance.
Walking along the road, Zhou Bai couldn’t help but ponder the transportation issues within the territory.
In fact, with the establishnt of trade with several neighboring territories, the number of Demon Beasts specifically for Professionals’ combat partners had increased, but of course, the price for each was not cheap. Aside from a portion of wealthy people in the territory, many were reluctant to spend the money. After all, they weren’t traveling far, and raising a Demon Beast required a Contract Scroll, a large amount of Beast at, and even so Growth-type Magical Beast Potions, consuming more resources than they themselves needed. Many people, despite being very keen, would resist the urge to raise one.
Only those Professionals who were Summoners would go through great efforts to cultivate a bond with Demon Beasts.
As for the territory, there were indeed many Horse Beasts being raised in the Breeding Grounds, aid at developing Cavalry, in which she had invested quite a bit.
So far, through the course of three Territory Wars, Zhou Bai had not encountered a proper army.
The first opponent was from the Blue Star Territory too, both sides equally matched and unfamiliar with this world.
The second was the Beastman Territory, where they truly resisted with brute force.
The third was an aggressive territory, not engaging in formal Combat, but ready to defeat ten with one strike.
...
However, one could infer that properly equipped armies are not sothing that many village-level territories could afford.
Did Fasal Village have money? Most certainly it did, focusing on plundering resources from other territories, yet they did not maintain an army either. Why? It undoubtedly ca down to money, and most of their money must have been allocated to support their superior territories.
She did not believe that Fasal Village, after bypassing so many territories and with so many Residents, being an early 3rd-level village, could not get promoted.
It was clearly waiting to plunder resources from the villages below.
Unless those behind it had an alternative, Fasal Village would only get promoted and focus on Town-level Territory Wars.
From this, one could deduce that proper armies are indeed not so easy to maintain.
Yet Zhou Bai was planning to do so, because her goal had never been to rely maintain a corner of a village; she definitely wanted to advance the territory.
Only by advancing could she continue to protect her own land.
Now, for Hope Village to move forward ant upgrading to a 1st-level town.
Once promoted to a town, the adversaries faced would be of a different caliber.
Hence, she must ensure the entire military strength of Hope Village is secured before the promotion to a town.
Otherwise, what was the point in investing so much effort to establish military Ranks?
Back to the matter at hand.
Having decided to raise Demon Beasts, she was now considering allocating a group to connect the entire territory; otherwise, traveling would beco too inconvenient.
As she thought this, Zhou Bai spoke up, "Speaking of which, we might need to establish another departnt."
"What?" Bayer was walking along the road when he suddenly heard Zhou Bai say this, sowhat taken aback.
What departnt was the territory missing?
"We’re missing a City Construction Managent Office," Zhou Bai said. "After we visit the barracks, we can add it. The building teams can be placed under this departnt, and in the future, it will specifically handle the construction and managent of transportation within the territory for a permanent solution."
City Construction Managent Office?
Actually, Bayer found the other departnts sowhat understandable, as other territories had similar ones, with different nas but managing the sa things, so he quickly grasped the concept.
But the City Construction Managent Office was a foreign concept to him.
He had never heard of a territory that had a departnt specifically for managing construction and transportation.
Though it was a new concept, after so consideration, he saw the benefits.
Indeed, if there were specialized personnel responsible, it would be more professional.
In the end, the territory only needed to allocate funding.
And who would be allocating the funds? Naturally, it would be Lord Zhou Bai.
Controlling the territory’s money ant holding the power in Zhou Bai’s hands, without any concerns.
"Agreed," Bayer approved without hesitation.
"Let Tures and Bi Jiamu take charge! Put the cent Factory under this departnt as well! Also give Song Wenli and the others an official position," Zhou Bai decisively made the decision.
Bayer nodded, "Tures and the others have always been involved with the Factory, indeed doing a lot for the territory, and Song Wenli, the young lady who created cent, played no small part in this Territory War. This way, their Contribution is sufficient, and even with a direct appointnt, it complies with the territory’s procedures."
