Lovisa City.
Theodore returned to Lovisa City with a ton of goods from Hope Village.
He had no doubt these goods could dominate the Lovisa City market.
If Hope Village's products can't do it, then what can?
Theodore came back full of confidence, already planning which marketing strategy would make Hope Village's goods explode in Lovisa City.
But as luck would have it, the moment he stepped into Lovisa City's territory, he heard Hope Village's name.
"So what's the deal with this Hope Village? Recently, a ton of territories are selling their products."
"We had a merchant team selling them before—I was looking forward to it! Didn't think suddenly there'd be way more, and so many territories involved. Is this a big expansion or what?"
"Heard they opened a Task Center, targeting all village-level territories, so mercenaries can go to Hope Village."
"Damn, all village-level territories? The daily teleport fees must cost a fortune! Can a small village like that really afford it?"
