With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 593 What kind of city

After hearing this, they looked around the area as if confirming something.

Lin Fan might not be able to confirm it, but that didn't mean that Yue Lan and Ming Xin weren't.

They had been working in business for a while now and it was their business, so of course they would be able to tell what would work as supply.

They went to the barrier and looked around the area before revealing eyes that were lit up.

Yue Lan and Ming Xin both nodded in agreement before saying, "The things in this area will be enough."

Lin Fan was surprised, but he didn't mind if this was all that they needed.

There was an excess of resources right now even if he did say that he wanted to keep the things for the Love Sect.

He had been worried that the store would need too many things that it would hurt the Love Sect.

But at the same time, Yue Lan and Ming Xin had also been worried that the Love Sect would need a lot, so they were hesitant about asking for some of the resources.

It was only Mu Bao Bao who knew the situation of both sides that knew just how much both of them needed. She was the only one that knew that neither side actually didn't need that much and it would be fine for them to share the resources.

So she was the only one that could say this.

After they came to this understanding, Lin Fan quickly portioned out a section for Yue Lan and Ming Xin.

In the end, to make up for it, he had even portioned out more than they needed.

After all, this bit wasn't even considered that much for him.

He was fine with giving them this much if it meant that their business would succeed.

Both of them happily accepted this and promised that they would make it up to him tonight.

At which, Lin Fan just revealed a faint smile that had a hint of bitterness to it.

Since that was decided, there wasn't much else that they had to do in this Minor World.

This Minor World was just like Senior Sister Bing's Minor World, other than a few extra facilities used for making pills and artifacts. But it wasn't as if they would gain anything from seeing these places since they weren't skilled in those professions.

lightsnοvεl There was plenty of time for them to explore these places in the future.

There was no rush to explore this Minor World right now.

When they returned to the room, Yue Lan calmed down and filled Lin Fan in on the things that he missed while he was away.

These were things that he should know as the City Lord of this Dungeon City, but in truth…Lin Fan didn't really care about this.

It wasn't that he didn't want to do his job, it was just that there was someone far more capable of doing it.

There were many times where he had wanted to offer the position and title to Yue Lan, but she had rejected him every time.

Part of it was because she didn't feel like she deserved it.

After all, she was nothing more than a daughter who was sold to the brothel by her father. Even if her father had once been an outstanding merchant who had status in this kingdom, it meant nothing to the current her.

At the same time, she wanted Lin Fan to stand out, so she didn't want to take this away from him.

But there was also a part of her that didn't want to take it because she didn't want to do the troublesome things.

As the City Lord, one would be required to do things in an official capacity.

If there was ever a ceremony, they would have to show themselves off in front of everyone. It was like making a show of oneself, which was not something that she enjoyed.

So a part of her enjoyed having Lin Fan as a scapegoat.

Lin Fan just kept a neutral look on his face as Yue Lan told him everything that he should know about the city.

With that look on his face, it didn't even seem like he was listening to her.

When she finished reporting, Yue Lan suddenly slapped the table to make Lin Fan snap out of his daze.

She didn't care that he didn't listen to these reports since they were trivial reports. If he really wanted to know about these things, it would be easy for him to find them out by reading a few of the reports that she prepared.

The next things were the ones that she wanted him to listen to and give an opinion on.

"The tax revenue for this month is this much. I need you to decide what we should do with the excess." Yue Lan put a piece of paper in front of Lin Fan.

When Lin Fan saw the amount written on the piece of paper, he couldn't help revealing a surprised look.

He looked at Yue Lan with a look as if he was asking her if she was serious or not.

Yue Lan just gave a calm nod in response to this.

Lin Fan looked back down at the piece of paper and revealed an even more surprised look.

After all, he never would have imagined that the town that he had been hesitant about building would be able to earn this much.

Seeing the way that he looked at it, Yue Lan offered an explanation, "Most of the money is coming from the dungeon."

Lin Fan slowly gave a nod to show that he understood.

The items that came from the dungeon were things that couldn't be found anywhere else in this world since they were items that were created by the dungeon. Even if they could be found in other places, they wouldn't be found in large quantities like in this dungeon.

So it was only natural that large amounts of money flowed through this town that controlled the dungeon.

Lin Fan looked at the piece of paper in front of him in silence before looking at Mu Bao Bao.

Mu Bao Bao just shook her head in response.

She was telling him that this was the amount that was left after they had paid their share to the kingdom.

Of course, what she didn't tell him was that she had used her power to lower the taxes that Dungeon City was required to pay.

She would do what she could for her man after all.

Lin Fan didn't know what to say as he looked down at the piece of paper.

Eventually, he said, "Why not just use the money for whatever you want to do. Don't you want to expand your business across the empire? Just use it for that."

But to his surprise, Yue Lan shook her head as she said, "This is money that was earned by the city, so it should be used for the city."

Lin Fan looked at her with a surprised and somewhat confused look before saying, "Then use it for the city."

Yue Lan gave a nod before saying, "But what should it be used for?"

Lin Fan was once again taken aback and confused by this.

After a momentary pause, he said, "Use it for the things that the city needs? I'm sure that you know better than I do what is needed."

Yue Lan once again gave a nod before saying, "But you need to decide what to use it on."

Lin Fan was even more confused when he heard this, so he looked at Yue Lan with that confused look like he was asking what she was talking about.

Yue Lan just calmly looked at him and said, "In the end, it's what kind of city do you want to build?"

Lin Fan was completely taken aback when he heard this.

But then he quickly knitted his brows since he had never thought about this before.

To him, the city was nothing more than something that he was using as a temporary base for his dungeon. If worse came to worse, he was thinking about hiding himself off in the dungeon, which was why he had prepared all those escape routes for the dungeon.

But now that he thought about it, he didn't need to worry about that and could focus on developing the dungeon.

After all, Mu Bao Bao was now in charge of the Mu Empire, so it was absolutely safe for him to focus on developing this dungeon.

So he should take some time to think about how he really wanted to develop this city, this dungeon, and the Love Sect.

After a long silence, Lin Fan said, "If I said…that I want to build a prosperous city, would that work?"

He didn't really know what he wanted, but at the very least, he should try to build something that supported all those that lived here.

No, even before that, he just wanted to build a proper home here since this place had become his home without knowing it.

Yue Lan revealed a smile and gave a nod in agreement.

The others had been worried about how Lin Fan treated this place since he seemed like he didn't take this place as a home.

But since he said this, it meant that he at least took pride in this place.

So they should do what they can to make this place better.

Lin Fan saw the looks on their faces and realized that he had been causing them problems during this time.

He had only thought about dealing with things that would come that he didn't think about the people around him.

He had to reflect on this.

"I guess I should act like a City Lord once in a while."
