Planes that could connect to various regions of the Main Plane would undoubtedly help with the long-distance problem.
Even if the two planes were hundreds and thousands of miles apart, if there was a plane via which Lords could transit, the trade would go smoothly.
The guilds had caught a whiff of Su Wan’s plans and were already lining up to help with the development.
However, they didn’t have the confidence to defend the plane by themselves if an attack was launched by an enemy.
Furthermore, it was difficult to convince other Lords to join. Therefore, there was no significant progress regarding the matter.
The news was passed on to the guild leaders of various large guilds. The top nobles among the natives and all the major forces received the news almost at the same time.
Many top Lords began to think about the proposal in all seriousness.
The last time a god was killed, the aftershock had remained. They didn’t dare offend the Lord by making any sudden movements.
Su Wan was the top-ranking Lord. She had only been in the Overlord Plane for less than a year and had managed to amass fame and powerful forces.
The Lords and the guilds wanted to think about it properly and speculate where this new trading business would head.
If they encountered an external threat, they would need to test them with their troops to see what the other Lord was planning.
In just a few days, more than a thousand guilds had applied to join the development of the Tasiria Plane. The Phoenix Guild and The Nightblade Guild prepared a name list for Su Wan.
Su Wan and Xu Yuan had just finished cleaning up the corpses from the Death Swamp when they received the news. They headed to the Tasiria plane.
The new queen, Angel, had already taken over the Tasiria Kingdom. The rebels had all been eliminated, and the remaining troops had pledged their allegiance to her.
Compared to the Underground World, the Tasiria Kingdom was much more valuable.
The towering walls were embroidered with the symbol of the Tasirian Royal Family. The guards stood in front of the city wall like statues. The patrolling soldiers did not slack off in their duties.
All the patrolling soldiers straightened their posture and gripped their weapons to show off the best version of themselves. They were proud of being the protectors of the kingdom.
Su Wan looked at the buildings behind the city wall. The towering spires, the semicircular windows, the giant bell tower on the cross street, and all the structures she couldn’t see even when she craned her neck.
There were not many citizens on the streets. Without a bustling population, no matter how big a kingdom was, it would always feel lifeless and empty.
“Lord Su Wan, all the forces of the Tasiria Kingdom have already pledged their allegiance to me.” The queen wore a silver crown on her head and a golden cloak around her shoulders.
Archduke Blood Fury and the Lord of Greed, who had orchestrated the attacks on the Tasiria Kingdom, had fallen. Angel couldn’t even believe it until she ascended the throne and became the queen.
The respect for Su Wan in all their hearts had grown.
The Lords sighed when they saw the “BUY NOW!” announcement on the forum.
[Tasirian Lords Association Announcement: Tasirian Lords Trading Center has officially opened today. Currently, the first batch of 5,000 Dimensional Teleportation Portals has been opened. The location of the relevant portals has been uploaded. Lords can check their own regional map to find the nearest portal.].
The announcement attracted everyone’s attention.
News of the opening of the Trading Center spread like wildfire. All the Lords had been waiting for this moment.
Many Lords checked their maps immediately to see where the nearest portal was located.
Soon, Lords headed to the portals and began to appear in the Tasiria Plane.
As a Lord who had traded with Su Wan and Xu Yuan before, Li Long was very curious about the trading center. After the announcement, he immediately rushed over.
After passing through the portal, his vision darkened and then cleared. There were the towering city walls of North Desert City in front of Li Long.
Many guards, towering arrow towers, and ferocious heavy siege crossbows showcased the strength of this mighty city.
“Lord Su Wan is very cautious. She didn’t put the portals directly in the city.” Li Long rolled his eyes and smiled at the female Lord beside him. She wore black leather armor and was very beautiful.
“Wow… so smart of you to notice! Do you want to say anything more about the most basic thing?” Xiao Mei snapped.
Li Long didn’t mind her words. He looked around. There were only a few troops guarding the portal, and there were very few structures there.
However, it was clear that the newly founded trading hub had big plans for the future. There was ample space around each portal, so it would not be a problem for the Lords to travel with their goods.
The area was not far from the city walls. It only took about twenty minutes to reach the gates. People could even hire carriages if they didn’t want to walk for twenty minutes.
There were quite a lot of people here. Only several portals could be seen. It seemed like the five thousand portals were distributed widely around the area.
“I wanted to introduce you to Lord Su Wan, but now, I’m having second thoughts about it,” said Li Long. He waved his hands to call for a carriage and got in with Xiao Mei.
“Get lost!” Xiao Mei snapped.
“In the past, 1 had the opportunity to be friends with the most powerful Lord, but I didn’t think much about it. Now, it’s too late for regrets.” Li Long sighed.
He even sang a few lines from the Peking opera. Xiao Mei slapped him twice.
As the siblings bickered, the carriage quickly drove into the North Desert City.
The buildings in the city were enormous. The carriage passed the city gates, and Li Long stared out the window. A signboard came into view.
The signboard showed the names of various shops like the Spear Weapon Shop, Troll Potion Shop, and Evil Dragon Scroll Shop.
When the carriage entered the city streets, they noticed that most of the shops were still closed.
“For Rent” was written on a board and hung in front of the shops. At the bottom, in smaller font, there were instructions to go to the North Desert City Center if anyone wanted to rent out the shop.
“Sis, why don’t we rent a shop here? Our territory has many good things. It’s a waste to sell them in the market.” Li Long was tempted.
“Let’s look around first.” Xiao Mei wasn’t in a hurry to make a decision.
Li Long didn’t say anything else. The two of them continued forward and arrived at the square in the center of the North Desert City. They found a hundred-meter-tall building blocking their path. The large plaque on it was eye-catching. It was the trading center for large amounts of goods.
Language magic was engraved on it, and any race could understand the posts on the notice board.
The two siblings saw some people in uniforms and asked them about it.
They learned that the commodity trading center was specially set up for large-scale trading. Players with long-term needs could place their orders directly in this place.
If there was a steady supply of materials, they could directly accept an order.
The trading center was integrated to deliver the required number of orders to the buyers. This way, it helped the Lords connect with each other and build a network..
