“This business district isn’t just about trading food and weapons. Zhao Yu also specially set up a clothing production line and clothing stores.
Besides that, he recruited many chefs to rent out shops with loans, allowing capable people to start businesses.
The entire business district is beginning to take shape, with a huge daily footfall. After work, the workers, having nothing else to do, often wander around the business district or stroll in the nearby park.
For them, this pre-apocalyptic normalcy is a cherished peace, something everyone yearns for.
Zhao Yu issued a lot of Zhao Family currency, but he got back even more. To facilitate smooth business transactions, he had no choice but to establish a Zhao Family Bank, offering savings and loan services.
Of course, not many residents have money at the moment. Zhao Yu mainly focuses on lending, loaning out several hundred thousand.
For Zhao Yu, the real big investment is definitely in real estate. With five thousand residents, even if two share one set, the value is over a hundred million.
Unfortunately, the same old problem persists: the residents are too poor. Two days after the Zhao Family currency was issued, the highest deposit barely broke a hundred, leaving no spare money for extravagance.
The camp is basically still under development. If it keeps developing, it will eventually become a real city.
These tasks seem numerous, but Zhao Yu hasn’t really put in much effort.
For him, building the camp and the city is just a side task, aimed at facilitating future access resources.
His main focus is still on how to compete with the Han family.
On the other side, people from the Han family of Black Rock City finally arrived at Wild Wolf Town.
They had no idea that in just a few days, Wild Wolf Town had changed, and they were captured by Zhao Yu’s people without any warning.
“Let me go, we are from the Han family of Black Rock City…”
“Where’s Li Yang? Have him come out…”
These people were just captured and hadn’t realized the problem.
It wasn’t until Meng Xian stepped forward and explained the situation that the captured messengers started to sweat profusely.
The Han family might be famous, but now they’re at the mercy of others, and they have no choice but to submit.
Soon, there were pleas for mercy.
Zhao Yu, as previously stated, just watched from a distance and left everything to Meng Xian.
Hours later, the Han family messengers left, rushing back to Black Rock City. The moment the news reached Black Rock City, the Han family was shocked. No one would have thought that a mere wilderness force would dare to offend the Han family.
After all, Wild Wolf Town was under the Han family’s management.
Someone dared to challenge them so blatantly.
The Han family members were furiously demanding to go to war, to destroy Zhao Family Town to uphold the Han family’s reputation.
And the eldest son of the Han family took this opportunity to vehemently attack Han Yong Le, accusing him of tarnishing the Han family’s reputation. At the meeting of the Han family…
Facing the challenge from the eldest son of the Han family, Han Yong Le’s emotion was not good.
He hadn’t expected Zhao Yu to be so ungrateful. After agreeing to cease fire and even willing to compensate the Han family, Zhao Yu turned around and annihilated Wild Wolf Town.
“You upstart, I will destroy you…”
Han Yong Le thought fiercely, but at the moment he needed to deal with internal family affairs.
“The destruction of Wild Wolf Town was indeed unexpected, but rest assured, all family members, within three days, I will eliminate Zhao Yu…”
‘Humph!’
The eldest son Han Yong De scoffed and stood up, :Even if we kill Zhao Yu, what’s the use? People already knew that someone started rebel against us.” “Exactly!”
“News has returned, causing a major stir in Black Rock City, with all authority discussing…”
“Our Han family’s dignity has been trampled on the ground…”
“The other three families are probably laughing at us behind our backs…”
“Also, this incident with our Han family will probably affect the attitude of the eight great merchant associations towards us, do you know that?!”
The uncles and aunts who supported Han Yong De immediately voiced their agreement. The moment the news returned, the eldest son realized this was a good opportunity.
Instead of concealing it for the Han family, he sent people to widely spread the news, as if afraid that others wouldn’t know about the Han family’s loss.
“Nonsense, our Han family has established itself through military power. A mere Zhao Yu is not worth our full effort!”
“Exactly, it’s just a Wild Wolf Town, a mere wilderness. How could its destruction affect our cooperation with the eight great merchant associations?!”
The Han family patriarch sat at the head of the table, expressionless, quietly watching the argument unfold below.
As the person in charge, he was naturally aware of Han Yong De’s maneuvers but did not stop him.
In reality, he was also clear that Wild Wolf Town was insignificant, and Zhao Yu was a minor character not worthy of much attention.
The destruction of Wild Wolf Town would at most become a topic of conversation and would not affect the Han family’s real interests.
What really mattered was whether his two sons could use this event to demonstrate their abilities and strengths, showing the family who was worthy of being nurtured and taking over.
The argument quickly shifted from mutual blame to who would take action against Zhao Yu to restore the Han family’s dignity.
“Wild Wolf Town was under my command, and now that they have been destroyed, I, as their leader, have the duty to avenge them and regain our honor…”
“Heh, little brother, it’s precisely because Wild Wolf Town was under your command that it was destroyed, which shows your lack of influence. This matter concerns our Han family’s dignity, let the elder brother take charge….”
