After the two finished their discussion and signed the contract, Viscount Lancelot was ready to take his leave.
"Then I'll wait for your good news," Viscount Lancelot said, already planning to send someone to wait in Barnes Village after returning—he wanted to see how Hope Village would 'win people over.'
"Mm," Zhou Bai replied softly, already considering who would be best suited for this task.
Once Viscount Lancelot had left, Zhou Bai called Bayer in.
After Zhou Bai finished speaking, Bayer grew a bit excited all over.
In fact, he had been waiting for this day quite a while.
He thought there would still be more scheming and preparation, but hadn't expected things would move so fast.
But as Zhou Bai explained the specifics, Bayer was a bit surprised again.
"So we won't get as much benefit out of it, obviously..." As long as they got involved, they'd be able to gain much more.
Speaking purely of military strength, Hope Village wasn't weak at all.
