Upon hearing the good news reported by Lauren, Su Li was overjoyed.
The timing of Master Kote and the West Merchant Association's return couldn't be more perfect.
The army clearing the Blood Pine Forest had just set off, leaving the forest relatively empty. Their association's workers could go in and start felling the Blood Pine Wood.
Meanwhile, after tomorrow's Summer Solstice celebration, the territory's land cultivation will also commence. The floodwaters from the Bjorn Shallow Bay have been drained, and the summer sun has dried the land below, making it soft and dry, ideal for cultivation.
The territory was short of manpower, but Master Kote brought back a Slave Capture Team, greatly alleviating the labor shortage issues. The acreage of fertile land for cultivation will also see a substantial increase.
