The fourth prince of the Aoming Kingdom was granted a fief: the desolate city of Geno. As soon as his fourteenth birthday passed, he packed his things and set off.
The desolate city of Geno lay near the Geno Mountains. The mountains had wild beasts, but none were high-level enough to fetch a good price. The city covered a vast area, but its farmland was poor. Its residents were few, and most were old, weak, sick, or disabled.
What was more, the city of Geno had ranked last on the kingdom's tax rolls for ten years running.
Everyone understood that the fourth prince had been exiled.
His "younger brother" mocked him, and his elder brothers ignored him, but none of that stopped him from developing his city with the help of the System and the travelers, until he built a city-state of his own.
The land won't grow crops? No problem, we've got seeds from another world.
Though the things we grow look like nothing I've ever seen before~
Can't sell all these unknown fruits and goods? Mors stared at the warehouse piled high with wares: cherry tomatoes that boosted charm, watermelons that replenished mana, clothes made from cotton with exceptional magic resistance... Does no one want any of it?
Other city lords: What do you mean, you can't sell it?! Then put it up for sale already!
The ecosystem around Geno City has recovered, and now wild beasts are running rampant? Then let's come up with some recipes to encourage everyone to eat more meat.
As for Geno becoming a famous food capital, that was all just an accident, an accident~
Geno City has no Archmages or Sword Saints? Not enough military strength?
Mors: No problem, we've got specially made cannons and amazing travelers with special talents~
Xiahou Dun: Let me go crush them!
Qin Liangyu: Someone, hold General Xiahou back! Commander Guo has already set up the cannons. Be careful not to hit our own people.
Guo Jia: If a few cannons can take care of it, why send people at all~
Xun Yu: While we're at it, let's blow up a reservoir in the northwest.
The people of Geno once fled the city in droves. When Mors called on them to help rebuild it, not one of them was willing to return. But now...
Mors: Come on in! One gold coin per person at the gate, and annual passes are 50 gold coins each. Limited supply, first come, first served~
Lots of people want to know how Mors went from an overlooked prince and down-on-his-luck city lord to where he is today.
At that, Mors turned and silently watched the travelers still working themselves to the bone. To tell you the truth, you probably wouldn't believe me, but I actually wanted to slow down the city's development. They just wouldn't let me!
------ A preview of an upcoming novel ------
"I'm Fighting Monopolies in the Stars," boys' love, receiving protagonist
After hundreds of years of quick transmigration, he returned still a boy.
And yet...
Looking at cars flying through the sky and skyscrapers reaching into the clouds,
"I remember when I left, cars were still behaving themselves on the ground." Gu Rong rubbed his chin, bewildered.
The System that brought Gu Rong back said nothing. It dropped off his ID and a lease, then fled in a panic.
Once he'd settled into his new home, Gu Rong did the math. He'd only rented the place for a year, and the money he had would only last him a month.
Survive, not live...
Gu Rong checked the prices and realized that all kinds of high-tech products were outrageously expensive because they were monopolized by alien civilizations. So he made his own and listed them for sale on Taobao.
"A waste disposal unit that originally cost 10,000, now only 999! You can't lose at this price!"
The outrageous price drew a crowd of livestreamers who exposed fake products, but in the end they only gave Gu Rong free publicity.
Gu Rong: Thanks!
The waste disposal units sold like hotcakes and earned rave reviews, bringing Gu Rong his first pile of money. The only slight blemish was a few of the comments:
[Cheap and even better than the 10k waste disposal unit, though it's a little ugly.]
[Works great, but you'd better not put it somewhere everyone can see. It's an eyesore.]
How dare they question his taste? Gu Rong was deeply offended, and set his sights on an all-purpose household robot.
"A household robot that originally cost 1,000,000, now only 9,999! You can't lose at this price!"
The livestreamers who exposed fake products stared at the monstrous robot on the webpage, lost in thought.
Theme: Live earnestly, stay positive, and make the most of every day.
It feels like a game. First there is the SSR Li Bai one-day experience card, and then there is the Fengxiao Kanbanlang. Although it has not played its full role so far, it is enough for players to pass the primary level, so Fengxiao recognizes the lord as a master. It is surprisingly simple.
Hahahahaha, is that you, Bian Que? If you open your mouth, you are ill. Look how frightened Guo Jia is.
Oh, Ma Jun and Helen are having a scene, Helen will do it
Hey, doctor, I laughed so hard when I said "You are sick". This meeting left a deep impression on me.
So let go! Hahahahahahahaha
As expected of medieval medicine, it's so pedantic that it's terrifying. Does everyone really think that bloodletting can cure diseases?
Absolutely, hahahahahahahaha, forever awesome
Good guy, if Ma Jun does it like this, he can create cars and airplanes later.
As soon as we met, I said "You are sick" and laughed to death hahaha
Does eating pumpkin make you stronger? Aren't you strong enough to move pumpkins every day? ()
