Chapter 203: Chapter 126: Everyone is Eyeing Hope Village"I’ve bought some! It’s the same jerky that Maria and their team were selling." One of the mercenaries, Bloom, said to their captain, Bwender, his eyes shining. Maria had just sold a large batch of delicious jerky, and while they bought some, they were also looking for the supplier and had just found it unexpectedly, instantly sparking their interest. After all, their entire Mercenary Team could produce a large amount of Beast Meat daily, selling it to shops and merchant teams at relatively low prices. Before, they hadn’t thought much of it, but comparing it to the prices of this jerky, they felt utterly outclassed. So, if they could master the other’s methods, they would have control over a huge wealth. Bwender was naturally excited, but as the leader of the team, he thought more deeply. If they were motivated just by tasting the jerky, Maria’s Mercenary Team probably was too, but they hadn’t acted on it, which surely meant these people were not to be trifled with. Could their plan really succeed? Seemingly realizing Bwender’s concerns, Bloom said, "The profits from this jerky aren’t just perceived by our team. I just saw several other Mercenary Teams, and if one doesn’t work, we could combine efforts with a few others. The market is so vast!" At these words, Bwender’s gaze flickered. "And besides, isn’t your sister the Mayor’s lover, Bwender? With the Mayor backing us up, it wouldn’t be much of a problem," Bloom continued to persuade. For their team, it was an alignment of favorable conditions and strong support. Having the Mayor as their backing, they could definitely lead and secure a major share of the profits. Eventually, they could sell their goods to territories weaker than Bengala Town, turning these into exclusive local produce, and thereby truly making a name for themselves. Listening, Bwender began calculating in his mind. Sёarᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bengala Town was renowned for producing Silver Equipment, with the territory heavily dependent on equipment trade, hence protection for various merchant teams was substantial. But that was just on the surface. In reality, weaker merchant teams entering Bengala Town were often targeted, and as long as it happened outside the territorial boundaries without leaving any trace, it was unlikely to be discovered. If he could get the Mayor’s permission, it was akin to erasing the last layer of worry. At that moment, another mercenary frowned, "I think I’ve heard of Hope Village somewhere; it sounds familiar. Do you guys know anything? It seems to have a complicated origin." Hearing this, Bwender shuddered, "I think I have indeed heard about it somewhere." The mercenaries at the scene all began to recall. Suddenly, someone did remember. "Hope Village, seems to be one of the territories that popped up recently. Among these new territories, it ranks second in strength, even higher than many Level 3 villages." This new territory had already become a hot topic in Bengala Town some time ago. To Bloom’s excitement after hearing this, "Especially since it’s a new territory, even if something happens, it won’t attract much attention. By the time they truly enter other territories’ sights, we would have already dominated the market." What could they do to them by the time they are held accountable? "Don’t forget, they have Beastman Warriors, clearly official personnel of the territory. If their whole team comes to Bengala Town and disappears, do you think others won’t notice, or they themselves won’t care? By then, the situation would be out of our control." Dealing with another territory was always tricky. With the strength ranking above many Level 3 villages, if they receive a title, their Lord would at least be a Viscount, a noble! If they pursue the matter diplomatically, it would be difficult for them to completely conceal their actions, potentially damaging Bengala Town’s reputation, causing trouble even for the Mayor. Hearing this, Bwender’s brow furrowed, recognizing the problem. Bloom then said, reluctantly, "Are you suggesting we give up?" He thought they were close to achieving a significant feat! It was at this moment that Bwender suddenly spotted a familiar figure emerging from the territory, his eyes brightening, "The Mayor is here." He had a feeling that the Mayor was here for Hope Village too. "I’ll go over and find out more." The next moment, Bwender headed towards the Mayor of Bengala Town, and just halfway there, he noticed several Mercenary Team Captains also heading towards the Mayor. "Mayor." Soon, the voices of several people greeting him resonated one after another. They exchanged looks, a similar gleam passing through their eyes. They all knew—they were all eyeing the "good stuff" from Hope Village!
