Warhammer: Starting with Industrial Revolution

As soon as Lillian, Daphne, and Jasmine saw Ronin, they rushed forward and threw themselves into his arms.

Luo Ning reached out and hugged the three of them tightly, his heart filled with warmth. The changes in them after not seeing each other for a while were clearly visible.

Lillian remained gentle and quiet, but had gained a touch of competence and maturity; every smile and frown was exceptionally captivating.

Daphne has become more lively, her temper has subsided considerably, and she chatters away non-stop, full of energy.

Jasmine's figure remained the same, but her entire demeanor had undergone a complete transformation. The unique contrast made Luo Ning's heart flutter.

It wasn't just their appearance; after a few brief conversations, Luo Ning discovered that their thinking had matured considerably.

Clearly, Milleyn kept his word and did not treat them as playthings. Instead, he genuinely taught them business skills and even guided them to make the most of their own strengths.

Milley, standing to the side, curled his lip and said sourly, "Lord Ronin really does forget his old friends when he has new ones."

Luo Ning teased her with a smile, "Don't be silly, they are my old flames, you are my new love."

"Hmph! You owe me a huge sum of tuition fees! These three girls are now the backbone of my caravan!"

"Okay, okay, I'll make it up to you when I'm done with this busy period," Luo Ning replied with a smile.

Milley rolled her eyes at him, not really angry at all, and turned to board the transport ship.

She's a born businesswoman; no matter how much she jokes around, she'll never neglect her business.

After seeing Milleyin off, Ronin led the three girls back to the governor's bedroom.

As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and the three girls' tremendous changes are not only reflected in their personalities and appearances, but also in their perfect teamwork.

The atmosphere was naturally warm and lively after a long separation.

But Luo Ning is no ordinary person; even when facing three opponents, he doesn't fall behind.

When the exhilarating battle ended, Luo Ning lay there, looking at his long-lost darlings in his arms, and smiled happily. Although he had spent a long time with Milain, the three girls' loyalty to him had never changed in the slightest, or rather, Milain had never had any ulterior motives.

"My darlings, you won't complain about leaving the caravan this time, will you?" Luo Ning asked with a smile, though he already knew the answer in his heart.

Daphne poked Ronin's cheek, her little mouth puffed out in a huff, and said, "Master, how dare you say that! You actually agreed to let Milain take us away! You're so mean."

"But Master will never abandon us, Daphne. Don't be stubborn. But this time, I hope Master won't let anyone else take us away." Lillian, despite being the youngest, spoke with surprising maturity.

Only Jasmine, nestled against Luo Ning's chest, stared intently into his eyes and uttered only one sentence: "I'll do anything Master asks me to."

Luo Ning was in a great mood, but he still sat up. After all, calling them back wasn't just about personal matters; there was an important task to entrust to them.

He clapped his hands, and Hannah emerged from the depths of the room.

Her face was flushed. Clearly, the long battle between the three heroes and Lü Bu had filled her with both envy and jealousy, yet she was powerless to do anything about it.

Under Luo Ning's tutelage, he disagreed, and even though Hana was almost going crazy, she could only sit there and watch quietly.

"Let me introduce you. This is Hanna, and she will be your little sister from now on," Luo Ning said slowly.

Hannah nodded politely, but to her surprise, Lillian took the initiative to walk over from the bed. Looking at Lillian's flushed face, with a hint of pity, she looked helplessly at Ronin.

"Master, you're so mean! You just let her watch like that, and look how anxious Hanna is!"

She didn't spell it out, but looking at Hana's flushed face, the meaning was obvious. Luo Ning smiled and didn't expose her.

"Besides Hannah, there are eight other people. I'm going to entrust them all to the three of you."

Upon hearing Luo Ning bring up serious matters, the girls' expressions quickly turned serious.

"I have just reclaimed this planet, and most of the nobles still control their own trade channels. But starting today, I intend to let you take over. Of course, on the surface, the entire planet's business sector will still belong to them, but the actual work no longer needs those outdated old things."

As he spoke, he pressed a data panel by the bed, and a holographic projection instantly appeared on the wall of the room: "These old folks are still stuck in those outdated ideas about trading. They still rely on the way of getting kickbacks from traveling merchants and ronin to make a profit. This method is too backward. Not only are the profits low, but the efficiency is also too low."

He looked at the three girls with a sharp gaze: "Let me see if you've really learned any skills after following Milley for so long. And those nine children were your initial helpers. I will bring more people to you later."

Yes, from the beginning, Ronin never intended for the nobles to continue taking over planetary trade, but the resources held by the nobles were extremely important.

Although Milain's caravans were reliable, even she had times when she was overwhelmed with work, and the planet's trade activities could not be stopped. The overflow of trade had to be dealt with in time, otherwise it would all be wasted.

The three girls nodded in unison, their eyes resolute.

Hannah was completely shocked. She couldn't understand what they were talking about. She had been a slave her whole life and didn't even know what trade was. She couldn't join the conversation at all.

The group arrived at the governor's office, where the remaining imprisoned slaves were brought in by guards.

Luo Ning let Hana sit on his lap. After all, she had been watching Luo Ning from the shadows and had been drooling over him for a long time. This was a small compensation from Luo Ning to her.

"You bastard! What did you do to Hannah?!"

A familiar voice suddenly broke the silence of the room. Luo Ning smiled and looked up at Edward in front of him, his eyes full of mockery.

"What did I do?" Ronin grinned mischievously, looking at him. "I didn't do anything. It's just that Hana likes being treated like this by me."

As he spoke, he didn't stop what he was doing, and Hannah finally couldn't help but cry out.

Her eyes were glazed as she looked at Edward, who was being brutally pinned to the ground by the guards. The reluctance she once felt was gone. She simply said softly, "Hana... loves Master the most."

Looking at Edward's incredulous expression, Luo Ning simply waved to the girls behind him.

"These are the ones. Take them with you."

As the girls were taken away, only the boys remained in the office, most of them with their heads down, not daring to look at Luo Ning.

They didn't know what was happening outside, but this lord was clearly not someone to be trifled with, and they were afraid that this lord was using his mind on them.

They had all seen what had become of Edward's childhood sweetheart, but Edward could only rage helplessly.
