With enough workers, construction in the new district kicked off fervently.
Large blocks of precisely cut marble were hauled down from the mountains and piled on the vacant land.
More commoners received tools and dug the foundation together.
Once the foundation was complete, the main buildings could be erected immediately.
In terms of efficiency, the people of the dark fairy tale world worked quickly, especially since magic could assist building.
With enough gold, the main buildings of the new district could be completed in one month.
"Work hard. If I catch anyone slacking, there'll be no dinner for them tonight!"
The overseer of the lord's mansion carried a whip, watching the hardworking commoners of Anatolia.
Without such strictness, many workers would shirk, just looking to collect wages without effort.
Chu Yun would never allow this.
If you want the lord's silver coins, you must work hard.
Hearing that dinner time was near, the commoners worked even harder.
After a long time, it was finally time to eat.
"I'm exhausted! Working in the new district is much harder than farming!"
A skinny man dropped his shovel and headed to the dining camp.
"Frey, after farming all year, after handing over crops to nobles, you barely have enough to fill your belly."
"But working under Knight Master, earning 130 silver coins a month, that's enough to feed you for a year. Still think farming is better?"
A burly man beside Frey scoffed.
Hearing this, Frey stopped complaining.
Since Knight Master arrived in Anatolia, the city had improved day by day and now provided job opportunities for the commoners.
Soon the two reached the dining camp.
A huge iron pot emitted steaming hot fumes.
The rich aroma of meat and spices made Frey swallow repeatedly.
Holding a large bowl, Frey served himself some meat soup and sat down to dip freshly toasted black bread into it.
"Eat quickly. After eating, work another hour, then you can rest. Remember to come early tomorrow!"
"Knight Master said, work well in the new district and every silver coin you earn will be yours!"
The overseer shouted at the workers to hurry up and continue working once they had mostly finished eating.
The construction timeline was tight—main buildings in the new district had to be finished within one month.
After that, roads would be built—one road connecting all Anatolia's main city districts.
This would make trade from other Canglan Kingdom cities to Anatolia more convenient.
After eating, Frey worked hard.
Though tiring, the thought of earning 130 silver coins monthly motivated him.
One month passed quickly.
Anatolia's new district was built at a rapid pace.
Though only a dozen large buildings including the lord's mansion, council hall, shops, and residential areas were finished, more merchants began to see business opportunities in the district.
After completion, Chu Yun, accompanied by Lake Witch, Countess, and Second Wife, went to inspect the new district.
"Knight Master, as you commanded, the construction speed was fast. Several merchant guilds have approached us about renting buildings."
The beautiful and enchanting Countess, wearing a sexy black evening dress and flowing golden hair, her sapphire-like eyes shining with excitement, spoke slowly.
Countess and Second Wife had led the new district's construction.
That Knight Master entrusted them with such an important task showed he didn't see them as mere ornaments.
Now with the new district thriving, both women were very satisfied.
"What merchant guilds?" Chu Yun asked, walking the streets of the new district.
Road paving was ongoing; no trees had been planted yet.
Two thousand workers busily built the new district, changing it daily.
"Xueyue Guild, Jinyuan Chamber of Commerce, Meixiang House, and others." Countess answered softly.
"Meixiang House?" Chu Yun found this guild strange and looked at Countess with curiosity.
"Knight Master, Meixiang House is the kind of brothel you know — places for men to get massages." Countess winked seductively.
"They say Meixiang House has all kinds of women — noble ladies, princesses, elves, half-beasts, even succubi!"
"As long as you pay enough gold, Meixiang House can satisfy you."
Second Wife, clearly more familiar with Meixiang House, added slowly.
Chu Yun nodded. He hadn't expected so many races in this dark fairy tale world.
Besides noble wives, witches, and maids, he hadn't encountered others.
This piqued his interest.
"Have the owner of Meixiang House come personally to negotiate with me. If the price is right, renting a building in the new district to them isn't out of the question."
Chu Yun said slowly.
"Yes." Countess nodded.
Soon, Chu Yun and Lake Witch, Countess, Second Wife, and others returned to the lord's mansion.
Chu Yun's mansion in the wealthy district, once owned by Anatolia's previous lord, is now his private residence.
The lord's mansion was established by Chu Yun to manage Anatolia.
Currently, only Count, Countess, Second Wife, and Lake Witch resided there.
The lord's mansion was grand, six stories high.
Many commoners came to the mansion to collect their monthly wages.
Smiles were everywhere.
"Knight Master is generous, really gave us thirty silver coins and a Health Recovery Potion purchase coupon!"
"Yes! But how do we sell the Health Recovery Potion coupons to Adventurers?"
Two workers, having just left the lord's mansion, were approached by a burly Paladin in black armor.
"Can you sell me those Health Recovery Potion coupons?"
"I'll pay 150 silver coins!"
The Adventurer Paladin immediately pulled out two money bags, each containing one gold coin and fifty silver coins.
Because the Health Recovery Potions sold at the lord's shops were highly effective and saved many adventurers' lives, sales were booming in the main city.
