Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

After seeing Yin Su and Ya Xi off, Li Zhi stayed behind at Bu Wang Wei.

She had been too busy before, and had completely let Bai Ge and Ou Huang discuss things on their own, whether it was settling the workers or allocating personnel. Now she needed to make some adjustments.

As darkness fell, business hours came to an end.

Bai Ge, Ou Huang, Tan Sheng Pass, and others arrived at the terrace one after another.

Once everyone had arrived, Li Zhi got straight to the point: "The next rankings will open in 9 days. The territory will expand again then. I can guarantee one spot in a region, but I can't guarantee the others, so the increase in territory area may be limited. If you haven't chosen the Lord's mission, I hope you will sell your territory to me. If you have the Lord's mission, then you are free to choose."

Territory can be bought, sold, and transferred.

A transfer contract can be signed as long as both lords are willing and more than 80% of their subjects agree.

However, the newly formed races do not yet have true lords; they are all temporary lords with very few subjects. The territories awarded by the leaderboards do not necessarily belong to the temporary lords forever, making transfers and sales even simpler.

As long as both parties agree, they can directly transfer and sell the property.

The only difference is that when a formal lord buys a territory, that's considered buying it.

Temporary territories purchased by temporary lords are not included in the expansion area of ​​lord quests. Furthermore, if the lord main quest fails, the purchased territories will be lost at the end of the quest.

However, whether a lord is temporary or permanent, the area of ​​territory that can be bought, sold, or transferred is limited.

Temporary lords can purchase up to three times the size of their own territory, while permanent lords can purchase up to ten times the size. All additional territory must be publicly announced in the council.

The public announcement period must cover at least two ranking cycles.

In the Apocalypse Continent, each month has a fixed 31 days, and the rankings are held on the 21st of each month.

In other words, the shortest public notice period is 31 days, and the longest is 61 days.

If either the buyer or seller regrets the decision during this period, the negotiations will need to be renegotiated under the supervision of Parliament.

If a temporary lord purchases a territory but fails to retain it in the next ranking, the territory will be reclassified as an unclaimed area.

So after the beginner period ended, the official team has been secretly contacting the top three teams on the leaderboards, wanting to build an aerial base of over 30,000 square meters in the sky above area 4399, constructed by 378 airships.

Furthermore, land reclamation work is underway below, creating a territory that combines land and air resources, offering both offensive and defensive capabilities.

The idea is good, and the aerial base is said to have been built, but the choice of lords for territories of different sizes has not yet been decided.

Or rather, because the situation is still unsettled, different factions within the government have been vying for control of the territory.

At that time, the authorities sent people to the Hundred Beasts Market to assist Li Zhi, but she found that she was being followed and could only call out Yan Gui. This was the result of these factional games.

Not only are people not united, but they also engage in open and covert struggles, and sabotage each other's factions.

Yan Guihui came out because she originally came from District 15 and was the captain of this operation.

The others didn't come out because they were all from other districts and wanted to test her temper and give Captain Yan Gui a hard time.

After Li Zhi told Bai Ge about this, all the other guards were transferred, and the new ones were all Yan Gui's teammates from District 15, which eliminated a lot of potential conflicts.

Li Zhi brought this up now because he wanted to clarify things with them.

Although she wouldn't encounter the same situation as the official one, the lord's main quest settlement time was still one day before the leaderboard. By confirming it in advance, she could better arrange defensive fortifications and plan the territory's area and size.

Without a second thought, he said, "Boss, didn't we already say that if I'm still on the leaderboard, I'll sell you all my territory?"

Li Zhi: "I asked other people."

To fit the description: "Oh."

She had actually brought this up when we selected the main quest mode, but at the time we only confirmed that she would be sold the territory.

Both the European Emperor and Master Hao focused on the root cause and ultimately did not provide a definitive answer.

Li Zhi looked at them.

The European Emperor: "I do have territory, and it's tied to my flying ship. I can sell it to you now."

Li Zhi: "Your territory is 100 square meters, right? I'll offer 1000 gold. What do you think?"

European Emperor: "Okay."

She breathed a sigh of relief.

Although in several discussions with Hao Shi and Tan Sheng Pass, the final conclusion was always to follow Li Zhi, she always felt insecure about placing all her hopes on others.

Greed for life is simple-minded, and Teacher Hao's thinking is also simple; she can only think a little more.

Li Zhi is indeed strong, responsible, and has excellent execution skills. He is a friend she wants to get to know better and a suitable boss.

But they had only known each other for a short time.

It's been less than a month since we met, and we've probably spent less than three days together in total.

How could she possibly entrust her future, along with that of her best friend and sister, to someone she barely knew?

But opportunity waits for no one.

The Empress knew very well that her answer this time would determine the future direction of their relationship with Li Zhi.

It could very well change the future of the three of them.

Therefore, at the same time Li Zhi asked this question, the European Emperor bestowed a blessing upon himself.

Since reason prevents her from making a judgment, let intuition and talent make the choice for her.

In the very first second of receiving the blessing, a powerful intuition and premonition were frantically reminding me:

Say yes!
