I Become a Landlady in the Game World

"[Do you want to spend 100 Gold Coins, 20,000 units of stone, 2,000 units of iron ore, and 1,000 units of concrete to construct a Swimming Hall?]"

"[Do you want to spend 100 Gold Coins, 20,000 units of stone, 5,000 units of iron ore, and 1,000 units of concrete to construct a Sports Arena?]"

"[Do you want to spend 100 Gold Coins, 20,000 units of stone, 5,000 units of iron ore, and 1,000 units of concrete to construct an Amusement Park?]"

"[Do you want to spend 100 Gold Coins, 10,000 units of stone, 10,000 units of wood, some trees, and some flowers to construct a Park?]"

Faced with the system's questions, Zhou Bai replied "yes" to all of them.

A moment later, the entire warehouse's resources had significantly dwindled.

Especially stone, iron ore, concrete, and other such essential raw materials,

Suddenly tens of thousands of units were missing, making Ding Qiurou, who was in charge of the warehouse, somewhat panicked.

She glanced at it.

Oh, it was territory requisition, no worries then.

Afterward, Ding Qiurou couldn't help but smile. Of course, such a large amount could only be accessed directly by her daughter without notification.

She was safe at home!

She could rest easy now.

As for her daughter returning and not reporting her safety but directly dealing with territory issues, she was quite used to it.

She then immersed herself back into her work.

For Zhou Bai, after a massive resource call, architectural drawings had already turned into small-scale buildings before her.

Zhou Bai placed these "small models" next to the school and the library.

First was the park, which separated the library and school from other buildings as scholarly areas need to be relatively quiet.

Then came the amusement park, sports arena, and swimming hall in succession.

These buildings covered large areas, and after setting them, almost filled the entire third ring area, except for a small corner, which wasn't much of a concern for Zhou Bai and she left it as is.

Then came the fourth ring.

The fourth ring also belonged to areas that didn't need to be touched – the military camp, hospital, prison, beast cart station, and factory area already almost filled this part. Recently because the business had been booming, several more factories had been built, and no empty land was left.

With this operation, the territory's publicly accessible sections were basically all filled.

Next, Zhou Bai's gaze fell on the relatively vacant northern part of the territory.

The north was Hope Village's planting and breeding base, the storage area for supplies, an area she would never encroach on even if she was short on land.

Currently, this area included a breeding ground, beast taming arena, pond, farmland, and woodland.

The woodlands were an inherent part of the territory, and the hillsides had already been planted with various transplanted fruit trees, which were now blooming, and it wouldn't be long before they bore fruit.

This time around, she had gathered many fruit trees, and Zhou Bai directly planted them through the panel, then looked at other residents' exchanges and planted those as well.

Having settled the woodlands, Zhou Bai looked at the remaining vacant land and without hesitation, turned it into farmland.

"[Do you want to spend 200 Gold Coins to unlock 200 acres of farmland (can be repeatedly cultivated)?]"

"[Detected that the territory's farmland level is Level 3, newly unlocked farmland is Level 1, do you want to spend 2,000 Gold Coins to upgrade to Level 3?]"

"Yes."

This far, all available space in the territory was practically occupied.

It hadn't been easy!

Looking at the total expenses this time, excluding the cost of materials, she had spent 13,900 Gold Coins.

Each item didn't seem too costly on its own, but added together, it was a significant figure; were it not for recent earnings, Zhou Bai wouldn't dare to spend so liberally.

Indeed, infrastructure was a matter of huge capital consumption.

Just building a Level 3 village alone had cost tens of thousands of Gold Coins.

In the future, moving to a town level, the investment would likely increase by several times, posing a great challenge to the territory's finances.

Hope Village would need to save a lot more money if it wanted to spend in the future.

Thinking this, the Lord panel already had the notification ready, and Zhou Bai paused momentarily, but then restrained herself.

After all, her current identity was just the Village Chief, not the Lord.

Right after returning, the territory had changed drastically. It was easier to give rise to unwarranted speculation in such a short time; it was better to wait till late at night!

There was no rush after all.

Subsequently, Zhou Bai started checking the latest data of the territory.
