Chapter 496: Infrastructure
Wan Ling looked like she wanted to give him a slap for acting as if he was a child trying to get excused from a responsibility and not equal partners in their business. She said nothing and instead just looked up at the sky and let out a sigh. Sage hadnt yet left and so she just waved her hand dismissively at him since she didnt feel like dealing with any more of his antics at the moment.
Sage slipped away and let out a sigh of his own. Dealing with that woman was truly difficult. He was eager to avoid her wrath, fearful of losing her assistance, and also worried about their relationship deepening. It wasnt that he didnt like her, but he was already engaged after all. The Lang Clan Ancestor had been a major help in him surviving to this far, so he couldnt ruin the Ancestors arrangements. He could sense there could be more to their relationship, but he chose to flee in order to avoid future complications.
Since Wan Ling hadnt denied his proposals for Lionheart Town, Sage moved forward with his plans and for the next step he needed a little more assistance. He planned to hire on a few experts, but the talents he needed could not be found in Lionheart Town. He planned to take a trip over to Golden Cricket Cove, the provincial capital, and that thought had him walking back to where hed just left Wan Ling.
Ahem. I was planning on going on a little trip and inviting all the Tiankong Siblings. I know youre quite busy with many things to do, but perhaps youd like to see the capital of Ten Thousand Wave Province?
Such a kind invitation, how could I not take it?
After playing around with them for a few hours, Sage finally made an excuse to leave. They were already gearing up to go to the beach, but he wasnt in the mood to get sand everywhere so he declined.
Wan Ling was going to do the same, but Sage insisted that she take some time to relax. He even pointed at her, You should get a little sun, you look a little pale. Ive been gone for two years, so I need to make up for lost time. You, on the other hand, have been working hard so you deserve a break! Keep an eye on those kids for me, theyre always getting into trouble.
Sage scuttled out of there at high speed once again, not realizing that he was sending somewhat mixed signals. He was too focused on the reasons for this trip to pay attention. He paid a local kid to act as a guide and first found a place to recruit some builders. While the sewer he planned to build wasnt common, it wasnt a foreign concept. Many of the cities had large drainage systems to deal with rain and floods, especially in 10,000 Wave Province. He hired a dozen of the most skilled architects and engineers and gave them the rest of the day to prepare. He didnt need them badly enough to spend hundreds of Spirit Stones each to send them through the Transportation Array, but he planned to put them on an airship with an escort to lead them to Lionheart Town.
The next item on the agenda was far more interesting, to Sage at least, consisted of a trip to a Beast store. In the Dou Kingdom, the selling of Spirit Animals and Demonic Beasts did not fall under the influence of the Four Major Businesses. So, there were plenty of shops that sold such beasts, just like that shop that had been so influential to him back in Red Knife City of Shou Kingdom. Strange Creatures. It was a weird name, but he had no idea that inside that shop hed find that toad with the hypnotic eyes that had caused him so much trouble. Of course, the shop he was looking at now was not named Strange Creatures, he was just doing a little reminiscing while looking over the many businesses that lined the Golden Market. Sage had to admit it was quite a stylish name for the business district of a city and with a little jealousy resolved to come up with something suitably impressive for Lionheart Town.
Hmm, Lion. Mantis. Golden Lion? Too much of a ripoff. Lion Mantis? I wonder if theres a mantis that has a big lions mane? Maybe I should make one, but dont many mantis females bite the heads off the males when they mate? How would that make sense with lions and their harems? Lion Mantis is a bad idea, check.
