Chapter 259: Chapter 259: The Growing Ping’an Material Trading House

After the battle that night, Rory became thoroughly busy. For the next few days, Rory was constantly receiving applications and then going everywhere to carry out inspections.

The team that had already been quietly formed finally came together. Unexpectedly, the numbers were still not enough.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have needed to take to the field himself. Even so, Rory enjoyed it, after all, this time he was busy for himself. It was completely different from before when he worked for his family, yet personally had nothing.

After inspecting each stronghold, the construction matters were compiled and handed over to Fang Hao.

Fang Hao dispatched a large number of Skeleton Labor, following behind with a fleet specifically for transport. In every place they reached, the Skeleton Labor quickly proceeded with construction, and because it followed a set pattern, they were very efficient.

In some places, only one Material Warehouse was needed, while others required several.

There were also regions that needed the construction of additional facilities, such as ports, to facilitate various material transports.

In any case, everything was under the control of Rory and Fang Hao, and it did not waste their own resources. In this way, the Material Trading House gradually began to grow within the Sea Alliance.

It started off as just a corner here, but with the income of various families from all over the place, it slowly spread out.

People were not lacking in the ability to calculate profits; on the contrary, the more they calculated, the more envious others became.

Being able to gain substantial profits and save a lot of expenditure was something no one wanted to pass up.

Even if they felt there might be other plans at play, they couldn’t turn a blind eye, because they couldn’t afford to watch others grow and strengthen while they slowly weakened. It was an overt scheme.

The balance of power and networks of some forces gradually began to shift.

"This is just the beginning; it will become even larger in the future. The other powers in the distance are still observing," Rory said to Fang Hao, with Fang Jie hiding behind Fang Hao, listening to the report.

"You’re doing well. But isn’t this rate of development dangerous?" Fang Hao asked.

"No, although indeed some might want to deal with us, they know I am just a public figure. On the contrary, you are in a more dangerous position; you need to protect yourself."

There were rumors that Fang Hao was not the real leader of the Undead Force; the actual leader was someone else. Some even said that the leader of the Undead Force was a human, but Rory did not dare to speculate rashly.

As Rory’s own status and control of resources grew, he became even more unwilling to offend his superior.

Being human was even better after all. As a human, one could understand human thinking.

"You don’t need to worry about me; there won’t be any issues. Are you experiencing any difficulties? Do you have enough manpower?"

"We’re somewhat short on manpower, but I’m already doing my best to assemble a team. By the way, many in my team come from Earth, that won’t be a problem, right? They always say the strangest things."

Rory felt a headache thinking about all the information he had gathered during this time.

There were also those who always hovered around him, ostensibly showing affection, but what did they really want? Rory knew full well. Their methods and words either caused Rory embarrassment or made him blush.

It must be said that when it comes to culture and language, people from that world have developed to a very high level.

By "high," he meant not just the good but the bad as well.

"That shouldn’t be a problem. We need people no matter where they come from, as long as it doesn’t affect our development," Fang Hao’s reaction was no different from usual.

At this moment, Fang Jie frowned slightly, "Are they testing me? As expected, once people have status and power, they always think of more." Fang Jie thought about it and then decided not to care.

He could not expect everyone to always remain the same; that was impossible. As long as they could be of use to him and not hold him back, there were no problems.

Suddenly, Rory spoke up, "Um, lately, I’ve been wanting to develop my own strength; may I?"

"What kind of strength? Military power or something else?"

"Not just military power, but all-around strength. I want to develop some merchant fleets of my own, of course, based on our trading house and not posing any threat to our own operations."

"Also, in terms of power, I need strength to protect myself. Recently, some people in the family have different demands."

As Rory’s status continued to elevate, his position within the family became increasingly special.

But similarly, some were asking Rory to relinquish his authority or to follow their arrangements. How could Rory agree to that? If he were to truly agree, not to mention how Fang Hao would react, it would be his own downfall.

At that time, he would be at their mercy.

However, as families grew larger, there were always many fools, and these fools could influence the family’s leadership.

Although the family owned only a medium-sized island, the force it could mobilize was not insignificant. They could even deploy a team of Gold-level fighters, not much less than what Quisha Island had initially.

Perhaps they wouldn’t employ full force against oneself, but he had to be prepared.

Rory himself never thought that he would come to such a pass with his family. If this continued, he might really have to take a stand against them or perhaps establish his own family ahead of time.

An idea sparked in Fang Jie’s mind; it seemed his Troop Construction Diagram might be useful.

"Alright, go ahead and handle it yourself, as long as it doesn’t affect our development. We can even help you acquire your own island if you have the capability, even a large one."

Upon hearing this, Rory was moved inwardly, but then he simply nodded nonchalantly.

Some things are best mentioned only in passing and not discussed in detail.

"By the way, we can also solve your security issues. Would you like us to send the Golden Undead for protection or do you have another solution? We can help you get in touch to buy Gold-level Puppet troops."

Rory’s eyes widened in surprise; he hadn’t anticipated the Undead’s energy to be so vast.

After all, Puppet troops are not ordinary troops. Creating Gold-level Puppets was incredibly difficult, and yet they could procure such items?

Puppet troops have always been known for their excellent obedience and powerful strength, always priceless and rare.
