Chapter 392: Chapter 223: Hope Village Became Famous_4

To prevent targeted attacks on certain territories, the transmission destinations of the Royal Capital’s Transmission Array were placed at a great distance. This was to increase the cost of teleporting personnel as much as possible, deterring sudden assaults on the Royal Capital.

Therefore, the price to return through the Transmission Array was not small.

When it became clear it was Charlotte, one of the soldiers guarding the city hesitated, "Baron! It’s you!"

No one had heard before that Baron Charlotte was so generous!

And it was widely accepted that assignments were a good opportunity to amass wealth.

Not only had Baron Charlotte chosen not to take the land route and collect a subsidy, but she had also returned early. Where had she made her fortune?

While thinking this, the soldiers dared not show any sign on their faces and remained respectfully reverent.

"Um," Charlotte also noticed the soldiers’ looks and responded indifferently before leading her subordinates toward the knight team.

Watching their departing figures, the gate-keeping soldiers still felt envious.

Although all were soldiers, the knight team was the King’s private force, whereas they were territorial soldiers. How could it be the same?

They wondered if they would have a chance to be selected next time.

At this time, Charlotte had already arrived at the Knight Camp with her men. No matter how much of a hurry they were in, they had to turn in their assignments first.

At this moment, not only Charlotte but also the knights following her had a spring in their step. They knew that once their assignment was completed, they could start selling the products they had bought from Hope Village. At ten or even tens of times the profit, in the vast Capital, there were plenty of buyers.

They had confidence in the products from Hope Village.

They quickly arrived at the Knight Camp.

Harrington, the Knight Camp officer in charge of assignment management, was also surprised to see Charlotte and her entourage.

He remembered that this team had gone to a rather remote territory and shouldn’t have returned at this time according to their normal schedule.

Had he remembered incorrectly?

While thinking this, Harrington quickly took out the register and began to flip through it, soon finding the record.

After seeing the entry for Hope Village, his expression paused for a moment.

Oh, Hope Village, that was the territory mentioned today by the officials at the territory management office, the one that had leapt in ranking in the blink of an eye.

However, it was after all a small territory, and once mentioned, it had slipped his mind.

He had not expected to hear of it again.

"Did you return from Hope Village? Is there something special that made you come back so quickly?" Out of curiosity, Harrington asked.

Charlotte saw Harrington’s curious gaze and raised an eyebrow, "Why do you ask that?"

Had Hope Village become that famous?

Or had the news about Hope Village already spread to the Royal Capital? Who was so fast at spreading the word?

In that instant, many thoughts went through Charlotte’s mind, and she even began to make contingency plans.

Seeing Charlotte’s reaction, Harrington said directly, "You might not have heard on the road, but today, Hope Village’s ranking suddenly jumped by more than a thousand places, surpassing many territories that had been awaiting promotion to Level 3. It’s suspected they found some treasure."

Charlotte: "..."

Charlotte herself was shocked.

Over a thousand places.

Although Hope Village’s products were novel, the overall development of the territory was not outstanding.

Yet soon after she left, it had leapt by so many ranks?

She couldn’t help but be curious.

"I just heard someone mention it. Seeing that you just came back from Hope Village, I casually asked, nothing more," Harrington added quickly.

Regaining her composure, Charlotte spoke up, "When I was there, there was nothing particularly special about the infrastructure of Hope Village, just slightly better than territories of the same level. As for something special, probably the food there is delicious, with more variety of novel foods."

"Delicious? Novel?" Harrington raised an eyebrow.

Immediately, Charlotte took out various kinds of dried meat and fruits and placed them in front of Harrington.

After a simple taste, Harrington’s movements sped up, devouring all the snacks Charlotte had brought out.

After he finished eating, he looked at Charlotte, "Do you have more? I want to buy."

Seeing his reaction, Charlotte was quite satisfied.

Indeed, no one could escape the delicious food of Hope Village, even if it was just snacks.

"I will soon be opening a specialty shop in my territory to sell a variety of delicacies; I welcome you to visit when that time comes," Charlotte said with restrained grace.
