Chapter 174 - Setting Things In Motion

Ryu looked at the two young women and smiled as he said: "I will allow the two of you to borrow two rooms from us. I am sure your guild leader will soon contact you. But let me warn you now. Soon you will see some crazy things going on here."

"Then we will thank you for your hospitality." Elise bowed her head before standing up with her companion. 

"Margie, bring them to the receptionist desk and have them set the girls up with some rooms. Then come back here.."  Ryu gave out his directions before sending out a message to all generals for an emergency meeting.

"Okay, Darling~, Margie will be back!" Margie said as she motioned for the girls to follow him and left the room. 

"So what did you speak to IceMaiden about that made you smile as if you were scheming something," Chi asked as she leaned over and rested her head on Ryu's shoulder.

"I offered her the chance to merge with us once we become a clan," Ryu answered with a smile. 

"Oh? That is daring asking the second ranked guild to join us, but that does seem like something you would do. " Chi giggled and lifted her head to kiss Ryu's cheek. "But if they did join us, that would make us that much stronger and harder to knock off our ranked one spot." 

"That is very true. But before any of that happens, we will need to take out the Qin family and get our city under construction. By then, many will be wanting a piece of the pie. We can easily turn a huge profit by renting out spaces and not just ingame currency either, but with crowns." Ryu wanted to pull in all those companies that we're investing into the game to invest in the new city. As the funds were already set up for actually building the city, everything else would be pure profit. 

"You… Ryu, I really wonder when you have time to plan so much. It seems a shame for you to be going to school. Just start a business." Chi really thought Ryu would be better off as a business person with how he always planned ahead.

"No, I will get my degree. I made a promise, remember?" Ryu poked Chi's cheek, causing her to purse her lips. But she did forget that Ryu did promise Mary she would finish school.

"Sorry, I wasn't thinking..." Chi apologized. She felt bad bringing up sad memories.

"We are here!" WhiteLotus, Rose, and Violet walked into the room with GreenHat, two of the numbers, Margie and FingerSandwhich.

"WhiteLotus, I figured you would be a little late."  Ryu really did not expect WhiteLotus to be as quick as she was.

"It was just a matter of delegating tasks. Number Eight is sneaking into the Westfall city mercenary guild now. He should be back in a while. As for the notice, I already sent it out over the guild chat. And had others pass it on as well. I will post it again myself later on for those who might miss it." WhiteLotus replied. She had made use of some of those wanting higher positions in the guild to help spread the word. It was the best way to do it than trying to handle it all by herself. 

"That is good to hear. If anyone still heads to Westfall and dies, it will be on them. But I will make sure to avenge their death anyway. I gathered you all because things are slowly being put into motion. I just finished talking with Ice Palace's guild leader IceMaiden and asked her if she would like to merge with us when we become a clan. She will be giving me a proper response later.

"But onto more important matters, FingerSandwhich how is recruitment going?" Ryu asked.

"Right now, we have all the construction teams ready. My father is investing heavily in this city idea thanks to GreenHat over here blowing the idea up to be something big. But truthfully it will. I have a feeling that modernizing a fantasy game like this will open up much more than we would ever imagine. This is a world of magic after all. With the right tools and means, we can do many things, even build computers. Because of this, my father has taken a big interest in this endeavor. 

"That and he seems hell bent on making yours and Chi's dreams come true anyway. We have two teams of miners who have already been brought into the game and are mining all the metals we can get from the area. There are also a few squads of guards helping them up their levels as well by teaming with them and killing monsters while they farm ore. Once their levels are high enough they will then move to a new area to farm. I had them create new guilds as well. One is the Serenity Mining Company while the other is Serenity Construction Company. I am hoping our staple name will stop others from trying to player kill them. I have also sent a few of our own people to help guard as well. 

"The only thing we are lacking now is armament masters to make our tools. To make up for what we lack at the moment I have about one hundred blacksmith forging tools for us. I figure in about a month in game time we will be able to start building." FingerSandwhich finished his report. He hoped his time schedule was good.

"Sounds fine to me.  Margie, how many armament masters do we have?" Ryu was wondering if we can get their own armament masters to help with some training and crafting as well.

"Darling~ we have ten who know what they are doing and I already sent them over to Finger sweety to help out with training and crafting as well," Margie replied.

"I really do need to hand it to you, you always seem to know what my plans are."
