I Become a Landlady in the Game World

Watching O'Neill and his party storm off, Zhou Bai didn't call out to stop them. The shady business with the sacks should end with Wolf's departure, since there was no evidence anyway!

Then, Zhou Bai's gaze fell upon the lords.

They had been at the forefront of the onlookers just moments ago, and now that the crowd had dispersed, those with guards by their side stood out.

But noticing several lords with the status of visitors on their heads, Zhou Bai quietly approached Jin Jingshan and his group.

"Have you got your number?" Zhou Bai took the initiative to ask.

"We have, and we're just about to go to the Commercial Management Office to choose our Market spot!" Jin Jingshan nodded amiably.

He felt a sense of admiration in his heart.

They had just learned from the onlookers around them about Wolf's identity and the uniqueness of Fasal Village, and once again realized the depth of Hope Village.

Even if it was through brute force, repelling a territory with the might of a small town was an actual feat.

If it had been them, even if they might have withstood it, they wouldn't have come out unscathed like Hope Village!

Besides the Market, they also had to vie for Hope Village's cement.

"Then let's go together!" Zhou Bai said.

"Yes."

It was at this moment that Viscount Kains and his companions, who had overheard Zhou Bai and his group mention the Market, spoke up, "Wait."

"Village chief, you're not playing fair! We had an agreement in place with you first, so how come you didn't inform us about this great opportunity with the Market?" Viscount Kains preemptively accused.

"Didn't I already send you a message?" Zhou Bai paused before continuing, realizing she had forgotten!

"But that's not the same! When we got the message and came over, the numbers were already in the dozens, and by the time it gets to us, there will definitely be no spots left." Viscount Kains said bluntly, "We've been in Hope Village for quite some time, and while we don't expect any special status, surely it's not too much to ask to skip the line?"

With that, Viscount Kains glanced meaningfully at Jin Jingshan and his group.

He had recognized them. These people were probably members of the same Clan Kingdom as Zhou Bai, sharing a consistent style and appearance.

Listening, Zhou Bai simply said, "Fine, then the lords can join us!"

Even if they didn't skip the line, they would certainly have a place in the Market if they wanted one.

Selling a favor wouldn't hurt.

Just as Zhou Bai was thinking this, suddenly, the words above several "visitors" heads changed, revealing their lord and noble identities.

Then they called out in Zhou Bai's direction.

"Lord!"

They too had finished visiting Hope Village, and, coincidentally, they were also here for Hope Village's Market.

Originally, they had intended to conceal their identities but seeing so many lords around and the possibility to skip the line, they naturally wanted to take advantage of that as well.

Voices rose, and when it was made public, many of the lords and nobles who didn't know each other were surprised to see one another.

Only then did they realize there were so many "companions."

Hope Village was truly appealing!

Thinking this, they all turned to look at Zhou Bai, waiting for her response.

They thought their intentions were clear.

Zhou Bai: "..."

— Who says Nobles of the Human Clan Kingdom are prideful?

— When it comes to benefits, they're all about not counting their chickens before they hatch.

The next moment, Zhou Bai's lips curled into a polite smile, "All the lords are welcome to join!"

From another perspective, if Hope Village added the specialty products of a dozen more territories, it would surely attract even more people in the future.

Who would refuse such a windfall? Only a fool would.

However, at this moment, Zhou Bai had a premonition that this sort of thing was far from being the last time.
