I have changed the names of the characters which were originally in Chinese. For my and readers convenient.

Main character: Lucas

“What? You want to sell me a city?” Lucas said, widening his eyes in disbelief.

“Yes, my friend. I will sell my territory and a city to you.” Carter said, his voice full of sincerity.

“Let me think about it." Lucas said, frowning. He was a bit surprised. He did a lot of transactions but this was one of the most outrageous ones.

A light flashed through Carter’s eyes. “My friend, what are you worried about? Is it your status?”

Without waiting for Lucas to answer, Carter continued to speak. “Don’t worry about your status. I’ll also sell you a nobleman’s title.”

Lucas’s eyes narrowed slightly. He was a bit tempted by the proposal, but he still cautiously said, “Carter, I don’t understand. Why would you sell your land and even go as far as abandoning your nobleman’s title?”

“I’m getting old!” Carter said, sighing. “I’m already 70 years old and I don’t have much time left to live. My descendants don’t live up to my expectations. So my best choice is to sell my territory and go to one of the big cities to retire and forget it all . If only my decedent lived up to expectations, I had not to sell my city to anyone. I love my city and its citizens. But I can't win against my age.”

Lucas didn’t believe a thing Carter had said, but he still said, “What’s the price?”

“One hundred gold coins for everything!” Carter grinned, showing his black teeth as he demanded an exorbitant price.

“Puuu…” Lucas spat out the water that he had just drank and glared at Carter. “Old man Carter, why don’t you just rob someone???” He had been in this world for a month already and knew just how much 100 gold coins were worth.

Carter wiped the water on his face and said indifferently, “It’s a territory, a city, and a nobleman’s title of a baron. 100 gold coins isn’t expensive. In other places, the price would be several times greater… cough cough!”

Lucas smiled as he looked at the somewhat awkward Carter. “You also know that it’s worth that much in other places. 30 gold coins, that’s all I have.”

“That’s too little…” Carter wanted to bargain a bit more, but seeing Lucas packing up his stuff, he quickly said, “Okay, just 30 gold coins, deal!”

Lucas glanced at Carter and said, “Carter, I suspect that 30 gold coins is still a loss for me.”

“Ha ha ha… my friend, it’s not a loss. Starting tomorrow, you’ll be a baron, most importantly, a baron with a city and territory.” Carter said, smiling and showing his large black teeth.

“I don’t have 30 gold coins, only goods that are worth 30 gold coins. If you’re willing, then let’s trade." Lucas said, sighing. He looked at the 2 large boxes behind him with eyes full of reluctance.

“Of course, deal!” Carter said hurriedly.

After saying so, Carter immediately went to open the boxes, but Lucas stopped him, and said, “Old man Carter, don’t rush, you need to make me believe that what you said is true.”

“Ha ha ha…” Carter showed his black teeth and waved his hand. “No problem, you can go to the territory with me right now. I will publicly announce you as the new city lord and pass you the title of a baron. You can move into the castle tonight.”

“That fine!”

A smile flashed across Lucas’s eyes. He went to the horse carriage, carried the boxes onto the carriage, and drove the carriage to follow Carter.

He looked at the dozens of people in front of him. They were dressed in simple clothes and behaved strangely. He felt a sense of disbelief every time.

Lucas has the power which help him to go back and forth between Earth and this new world.

One month ago, he stayed at home and was watching anime when he unexpectedly traveled to this world after being electrocuted.

He then discovered that he could travel back and forth once a day and he also had a storage space of two cubic meters. That was his ace card which help him to store things.

Lucas quickly became a dealer between the two worlds. He brought ordinary things from Earth to this world to sell, which allowed him to accumulate a bit of wealth. After one month of researching and prying for information, Lucas reached a conclusion.

This world was in the cold weapons era. The level of civilization was similar to the level of civilization during Earth’s seventh century, which was the time when slavery and feudalism existed.

Carter was one of his old customers. There was, however, no point in hoping that Carter would trade with him generously.

Lucas’s impression of Carter was that he was a stingy nobleman. He found it hard to believe that Carter would sell his territory and nobleman’s title.

Lucas had thought of the possibility that it was a trap, but currently Carter hadn’t taken out people to rob his goods.

Lucas didn’t care about the rest. He urgently needed a place to live and a legal identity. He would worry about the rest later. He believed that he would easily be able to take care of some other world natives.

“Being a noble doesn’t seem like a bad idea.” Lucas said to himself, raising the corners of his mouth. “It’s not comfortable having to sleep out in the wild all the time.”

He decided that he would buy the city. With his ability to travel between two worlds, being a city lord in this world seemed like a pretty good idea to him. He thought about having a harem of beautiful women who will worship him daily. This world had all types of races such as elves, beastkins and human.

Note: Territory means the area surrounding the city where citizen grow their crops and graze their animals.
