Chapter 241 - Distribution Mission (2/2)

This was because the Cold Desolate Dragon City itself had the title of 'Legend'. In the future, it would attract the attention of all races. Such a dazzling identity would naturally bring huge benefits, and the free city was the best way to draw in benefits.

”Yes, I'll give you a portion of the area first. Design this area as the main body. After you're done, let me check.”

Lorne looked at the map. Other than the workshop area, the dragon nest, and the underground tomb, there were no other areas on it. This did not suit his thoughts.

Since he wanted to build a free city, he had to hide the core building in the city and not let anyone enter casually.

Therefore, Lorne first differentiated the City Lord's Zone from the Commoner's Zone.

His initial plan was to plan for the 5,000 hectares to be the City Lord's Zone, which included the location of the dragon nest and the dragon tomb. Coupled with the fact that this was the highest castle in the entire city, it could be a symbol of the City Lord's supremacy.

After distinguishing this, the commoner area was easier to distribute.

The design area that Lorne had marked out for Tully was 2,000 hectares. He would start with a corner of the city and decide whether to expand it after checking their design.

”In addition, inform the mining team to rest today and set off tomorrow to mine the high-level mineral veins in the nearby area.”

Lorne took out the coordinates of a few high-level mines and handed them to Tully.

These high-grade mineral veins were near the Cold Desolate Dragon City, because this was the core of the geological activity. The mineral veins in the ground were very rich, and a large number of high-grade minerals poured out of the ground as the land changed.

Moreover, these spots were very close to Cold Desolate Dragon City. They would not encounter too much danger.

”Heavens, there are actually so many rare minerals nearby…”

Tully felt numb already.

Ever since he came to the Cold Desolate Dragon City, his shock had not stopped.

To be honest, he had always thought that building a city would be limited by resources and slow down, but now, it seemed that everything was not a problem.

As long as he relied on the output of these high-grade mineral veins and the project he worked with the Gnome Mineral Company, the final benefits could definitely resolve the initial need to repair the Cold Desolate Dragon City.

…

”Tully, can I retrieve my share of the profits in advance?”

Now that the Dragon City was about to be repaired, it would require a large amount of resources. It was impossible to repair the entire city with enough resources, not to mention building buildings in the city. It would cost a lot of money, and Lorne could only rely on the ore veins that were being mined to provide funds.

”No. The ores mined in the early stages have to first offset the equipment consumption and labor costs during the mining. Only after doing so can we obtain the profits. Otherwise, without being able to truly see the mine, the Gnome Mineral Company will not be able to determine how much they can earn, so naturally, they will not be able to divide the profits in advance.”

”However, you don't have to worry, my lord. With the complete exploration of the mineral vein, you can use the mineral vein as a guarantee to purchase the resources needed in advance by the Gnome Mineral Company. Of course, the guarantee will be lower than the final dividend by half. This is to share the risk of cooperation.” Tully explained.

”In that case, I want to advance another portion of the mining equipment first.”

Lorne touched his chin, then said to Tully, ”The restoration work in the Cold Desolate Dragon City will be managed by you for the time being. If there are any major problems, report it to me with the communication crystal. By the way, remember to first consolidate the gnome robots and assign them another mission. In addition, check the situation of the teleportation circle. I'll apply for the right to connect now.”

After instructing Tully, Lorne took out the return scroll and crushed it.
