Zhao Hai was sitting in the living room of the dimensional villa, with Zhao en standing behind them. Zhao Hai was Rennes, but he had changed his name to Zhao en.
Zhao Hai didn’t want to ask him anything else. Rennes had told Zhao Hai everything he needed to know. Zhao Hai already knew Carlo’s strength and the purpose of his visit.
These heirs of the magedell family would be given a piece of land by each family. These pieces of land would be given to them and they would be able to manage it themselves. For example, Laura and the others were assigned to the Duchy of Versailles, while Carlo was assigned to the entire Arkas Empire, except for the Duchy of Versailles.
Compared to the Duchy of Versailles, the entire Arkas Empire was simply too big. From this, one could see the difference between Kelun and Carlo.
However, Carlo’s life was not that good either. It was different from the Duchy of Versailles. Although the Arkas Empire was large, there were already shops owned by the magicians there, and their business was not bad. Although this seemed to be very beneficial to Carlo, as he could make money by holding hands, one should not forget that the people in the shop must have other heirs or had been arranged by Sovann. Carlo’s every move could not be hidden from them.
Most importantly, these people were in important positions, and Carlo could not touch them easily. It would not be easy for him to control the territory that was given to him.
On the other hand, there was no such problem with Versailles. The Duchy of Versailles did not have the property of the magicians. Although Laura and the others had a hard time when they started their business, they could quickly control their own territory and not let others interfere.
However, Carlo was also very powerful. Now, he basically controlled all of the businesses of the magedel family in the Arkas Empire. His power had also increased very quickly. Other than the fact that he did not have a level-nine powerhouse, his power was almost on par with that of a middle-level noble. He had more than a dozen level-eight powerhouses, and this was only what Ryan knew. There might be more that Ryan did not know. After all, Carlo was a gloomy person, and it was impossible for him to completely trust Ryan.
Carlo had noticed the Versailles Duchy because of the insect disaster. The disaster had already spread to the Arkas Empire, and all the influential people in the Arkas Empire knew what the merchants were doing. As for the way the Versailles family dealt with the disaster, the nobles did not think much of it. They only felt that the Versailles family was too lucky to have met Zhao Hai.
Instead of saying that they had noticed the insect disaster in the Versailles Duchy, they had noticed Zhao Hai’s sudden appearance. They had the same question. Where did Zhao Hai come from? And where did his things come from?
When Laura started selling the products of paradise, those people realized the huge business opportunity within. However, they also knew that the Versailles family owed Zhao Hai a great debt of gratitude. This time, the Versailles family had also suffered a great loss. They knew that the products of Zhao Hai were business opportunities, and so did the Versailles family. If they made a move against Zhao Hai now, it would be equivalent to slapping the face of the Versailles family. Although the Versailles family was not the largest family in the world, they were not the most powerful. However, after so many years of development, they were considered one of the great noble families. They had two 9th rank powerhouses in charge of the family, and no one dared to underestimate them.
It was because of this that no one had any ideas about Zhao Hai. It was not something that the old aristocrats would do, to become enemies with a big family for a business opportunity.
However, Carlo did not care about this. He needed this business opportunity too much. Among the three most powerful heirs of the magicdare family, he was the weakest. He needed to improve his strength as soon as possible. Therefore, he sent orlgar and Rennes. He thought that as long as these two appeared, Laura would definitely cooperate. At that time, he would be able to take over the things from Zhao Hai without any problems.
However, not only did Laura refuse to cooperate, but she even locked him up. As soon as Rennes heard that, he knew that things were going to turn bad. They wanted to kidnap Laura so that she could release him. Then, they would try to snatch Zhao Hai from her.
Of course, if Laura resisted too much, they were not afraid of taking her life. Once she died, the Versailles Duchy would be without a leader. They might even be able to take over the entire industry in the Versailles Duchy. However, they did not expect to be captured and killed by Zhao Hai’s magical beast, the Eagle, and become an undead.
This information was useful to Zhao Hai, but it was not of much use, so Zhao Hai did not pay much attention to it. After asking, he let Zhao en stay in the realm and watch the Thunder Eagles ‘route. He did not want to make any more mistakes, otherwise, it would be hard to tell when they would reach Huacheng.
Green and the others sat across from Zhao Hai. None of them spoke. After a while, green finally said, &Quot; young master, I don’t think it’s a bad thing to reveal our identities to Miss Laura. She should know her limits. Besides, she took so many undead creatures from us. Even if she wants to deal with us, we can know in advance. &Quot;
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, ” I’m not worried that Lola will betray us. I’m just thinking about the Alliance with the Versailles family. Although Ivan has treated us well, we can see from this incident that he is a qualified politician. If he notices anything, it might bring us trouble. &Quot;
Clint shook his head. &Quot; I don’t think so. If Ms. Laura didn’t want to sell us out, she wouldn’t have told Ivan about us. Ivan couldn’t have known. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded and said, ” I hope so. Zhao en has also told me some things about Carlo. I don’t care much about Carlo’s strength, but if he alone has such strength, then how strong is the entire magicdare family? it seems that we have really run into a tough opponent this time. &Quot;
&Quot; it’s not that big of a deal, ” said Grimm with a cold snort. &Quot; as long as we cooperate with the Versailles family, the magicians won’t be able to do anything to us. 9th-tier powerhouses aren’t that easy to deal with. However, there are quite a few 8th-tier powerhouses in the Versailles family, so we still have to be on guard. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded and looked at the terrain on the screen. He then looked at the map and heaved a sigh of relief. &Quot; I only hope that Carlo and the others will not make a move in the next few days. According to the map, they will reach Huacheng in about two days. I hope Carlo will give us that time. &Quot;
Grimm took a look at the screen and then at the map. He nodded and said, ” &Quot; looking at the terrain on the map, we’ll be able to reach Huacheng in the afternoon the day after tomorrow. During this time, you can’t leave the space. &Quot;
Zhao Hai nodded and said, ” let’s just let Zhao en take care of it. This way, if anything happens when we go out, he will be able to send us a message faster. Now, I’m afraid that there will be level nine magical beasts or undead creatures attacking us before we even reach Huacheng. &Quot;
&Quot; it’s best if they don’t attack us, ” said Grimm with a frown. &Quot; otherwise, it’ll be very difficult for us to get to the city of flowers. I hope this time it’ll be as smooth as the last time we met with Boff. &Quot;
However, the few people in the room did not believe Grimm’s words. Grimm also said that it was just a hope. It should be known that Boff was a level nine expert at that time. The other level nine experts naturally did not want to provoke him. And those magical beast Eagles did not have the strength of level nine. Strictly speaking, it was not bad if they had the strength of around level six. It was still very dangerous to rashly break into the territory of a level nine expert.
The dignity of a ninth-rank combatant could not be easily violated. Anyone who dared to do so would die without a doubt. It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hai had been even more careful.
The three of them chatted for a while more before leaving the villa. The farm space had been upgraded to level 15, and they had opened up 48 acres of land. Other than planting 8 acres of radishes, 10 acres of oil fruits, and 10 acres of bamboo rice, they had also planted 10 acres of corn. For the remaining 10 acres, Zhao Hai had planted 2 acres of cabbage and 2 acres of potatoes, which were the potato blocks on the ark continent. Although they were a little different, they were about the same. He had planted another 2 acres of sweet pepper. Two mu of green Chrysalis, two mu of green fruits.
The oil fruits and bamboo rice were what Laura needed. As for the cabbage and potatoes, Zhao Hai wanted to save some and sell them to Laura. However, he had to save more. After all, the products of Taoyuan were still very popular on the mainland. He didn’t want to run out of supplies.
He didn’t need to take care of the space. He just needed to collect and plant things at the right time. He didn’t need to do much.
As the land in the valley had been taken care of and those slaves had planted good crops in the land near Iron Mountain castle, Zhang tie didn’t need to worry about that.
He didn’t improve much of the land near the iron Mountain fortress, only 1000 mu. Other than the 10 mu rewarded to Qi and Xi, he had the slaves plant some ordinary vegetables on the remaining land. They weren’t magic vegetables. Although these ordinary vegetables were not as good as magic vegetables, they ripened less than magic vegetables. As long as they were well-preserved, they could be stored for a long time like cabbages. It was autumn now, so they had to prepare for winter.
Now, they had enough food and clothes for the winter. They could eat fresh ones at any time, which was produced in the food space. In addition, they had already saved a lot of rabbit skin by selling rabbit meat with Laura. There was no problem with the cotton clothes they bought from Casas city.
The materials for burning were not a problem. Zhao Hai and the others had stored quite a number of oil trees, cornstalks, and corn husks. With the addition of the rice bamboos, it should be enough. The problem of water was also easy to solve. Even if the moat was frozen, the lake in the mountain would be frozen as well. It was still in Zhao Hai’s space. If it was not possible, they could still take ice and turn it into water. They could not do much in the winter, so it should not be a problem to get food.
To prevent the food from being too simple, Zhao Hai even kept some blue-eyed rabbits for winter. If the slaves from other places knew about the living conditions of the slaves here, they would probably commit suicide.
