I Become a Landlady in the Game World

Chapter 35: Chapter 028: They Have a Good Lord



tailor shop.

Diana, upon realizing it was going to rain, had already put up the rainproof equipment she had made the day before.

Unexpectedly, just after she had finished, she welcomed her first customer—Zhou Bai.

The moment Zhou Bai saw Diana, he smiled and said, "I'm here to buy rainproof equipment."

As soon as he had finished speaking, several residents hurriedly followed in.

At that point, Diana understood.

This Lord really knew how to get things done.

She immediately handed over a set of four rainproof items to Zhou Bai, "Today we have four pieces of rainproof equipment, they are more effective when used together."

"Hmm, I'll take them all."

"That will be 30 silver coins."

Seeing how quickly Zhou Bai decided to purchase, the residents' eyes also turned towards the four new items in the tailor shop.

After reviewing the product data and considering the price, the residents' eyes lit up; the price was surprisingly cheap.

"I want to buy!"

"I do too, I want the whole set."

"Boss, can I buy two sets?"

"There won't be any purchase limits, right?"

"…"

Diana, seeing the residents' enthusiasm, paused and said, "No purchase limit, but the quantities are limited, sale ends when stock runs out."

Soon, one after another, residents paid for and bought the rainproof sets.

Many of them equipped their purchases immediately after buying and, considering the heavy rain outside, they plunged straight into it without any hesitation.

They then saw the rain that should have fallen on them being blocked by the bamboo hat and cloak, creating a vacuum around them.

"This equipment is truly awesome!"

The next moment, a bunch of them started jumping and hopping like fools in the rain.

However, to others, it appeared as though they were not touched by a single drop in the deluge, making for a great advertising effect, with some onlookers feeling envious.

If they had such equipment, they could definitely head out of the territory to gather and hunt.

Someone immediately asked, "How much is this set? It must be expensive, right? Can you recoup the cost by collecting materials outdoors?"

"Hehe, this rainproof set is just 30 silver coins, a very cheap price! As long as the materials are good, you should be able to recoup the cost quickly," a purchaser kindly reminded, "If you want to buy, hurry, as the quantity is limited. The soldier team has already reserved twenty sets!"

With these words, more and more people were enticed by the equipment.

Some groups that initially thought the equipment was too expensive and not worth it quickly changed their minds.

That was the case with Zhong Yongnian's team.

Having discovered it was raining in the morning and that rain reduces life value, the entire team had initially given up on going out. Although they received a notification from the territory that equipment was available for sale and purchase, those with experience knew that equipment sold in the territory was not cheap.

Though the purpose of forming their team wasn't solely about making money, they still had to consider investment and cost, especially as the team grew larger.

But now it was only 30 silver coins, just the price of an average piece of equipment.

After a brief calculation, everyone felt it was a fair deal.

Right then, Zhong Yongnian led the team to the tailor shop.

At this moment, the tailor shop was crowded with people who had heard the news, each one bustling and ordering their own sets.

Zhong Yongnian quickly pushed his way to the front and said briskly, "I want 15 sets!"

Diana checked her inventory, smiled, and said, "I've just got 15 sets left. I'll sell them all to you. I hope you'll gather special materials soon. Only then can I make more."

"No problem," Zhong Yongnian agreed without hesitation; after all, collecting these materials was meant for the territory.

Then, after picking up the equipment, he distributed it and soon led the team out of the territory.

They only had two hours to equip, so there was no time to waste!

Following Zhong Yongnian's lead, several other teams who had purchased equipment also went out, one even being a temporarily formed group.

As for those who didn't manage to buy, they weren't in a hurry since they could still purchase equipment later, while also having more time to prepare as others would check the situation with their gear.

Of course, they didn't just sit and wait; some chatted with their usual teammates, sharing feelings; some slept in their rooms, rejuvenating; others stayed home crafting items needed by others, earning copper coins and improving their skills.

Thus, a potentially panic-inducing event caused by changing weather was nipped in the bud by timely prepared rainproof equipment.

Watching this unfold, Zhou Bai, who had guided everything, felt a slight relief in his heart.

At that moment, Diana, observing all this, casually asked Zhou Bai, "Are you going out today?"

"Yeah, I'm also going to gather some materials. It won't rain just one day, and more people will come to the territory later on. It's always good to stock up," Zhou Bai spoke candidly.

Always buying materials from the system and not gathering enough themselves would lead to higher costs as the population grew. Moreover, they would be reliant on the System Store, and if one day it couldn't supply what was needed, the lack of resources would definitely cause chaos. To play it safe, it was best to stock up early.

Listening to Zhou Bai's words, Diana's eyes showed admiration.

Given the condition of the territory, Zhou Bai's decision was undoubtedly right.

It was impressive for someone so young to think so thoroughly.

Perhaps she really could forge a unique path as she hoped.

"Leave the equipment manufacturing to me! As long as you have materials, I will make sure they are prepared flawlessly," Diana promised earnestly.

"Why?" Zhou Bai was slightly surprised. Had she just arrived yesterday and was already showing her "sentiment" today?

"Maybe because I was once human," replied Diana. "For every human that survives in the Human Territory, we gain a little more strength."

Zhou Bai listened, paused, and then realized that the decline of humanity Diana mentioned was too distant, not something their territory needed to worry about now.

Seeing Zhou Bai pondering, Diana smiled, "But don't feel too pressured. Your territory is still small. Just focus on developing it well."

After saying this, Diana took out a piece of equipment and handed it to Zhou Bai, "This is a backpack slot, with a total of 10 slots that can be stacked. You need it right now. Consider this a gift for rescuing me from the Undead World."

She had noticed the day before that Zhou Bai's backpack was full, so she rushed to make this one, a small gesture of her gratitude.

Zhou Bai listened and looked at Diana, seeing her determination in her eyes, and accepted the equipment, "Thank you."

"You're welcome," Diana smiled.

"I'll give you more materials to continue crafting. I'll get them back to you as soon as possible," Zhou Bai said, handing over several high-priced materials he trusted Diana could handle.

Diana took the materials, raised her eyebrows slightly—she was already surprised when Zhou Bai had brought materials yesterday, and now again, it seemed Zhou Bai had his own mysterious supply channels.

But Diana didn't bother to ask; her task was to make equipment.

"Alright, you go ahead! Don't delay," said Diana, returning to her counter to continue crafting equipment.

Zhou Bai didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

At the door, he bumped into Harrison, who was soaked from the rainstorm, pausing at the realization that NPCs were also affected by the world's weather.

Harrison looked at Zhou Bai, fully equipped, and gave a slight nod as a greeting before heading straight into the tailor shop.

Zhou Bai was used to his demeanour by now and walked toward the Heroic Spirit Hall.

He planned to use his summoning quota before leaving the territory.

Diana's role in the territory reminded him of the great importance of local NPCs!

Meanwhile, Harrison entered the tailor shop and said directly to Diana, "I want to buy rainproof equipment."

Diana, hearing this, apologized with a smile, "Sorry, you're too late, they're all sold out. But the Lord just brought me new materials, so I'll make more. If you're not in a hurry, just wait here."

Harrison: "… Aren't they afraid of this stormy weather? Did you say they are not native residents of Stan Continent? After encountering so many incidents, can they still go out hunting as if nothing happened?"

He expressed that he didn't understand!

Or could it be that these humans have exceptionally strong mental resilience?

"Probably because the territory was well-prepared, letting them buy equipment, overcoming the storms, and surely other weather conditions too. What's there to fear? Of course, the most important thing is, they have a good Lord," Diana thought of Zhou Bai's actions and couldn't help but smile.

She was the first Lord she had seen personally leading residents of the territory; it seemed he had invested quite a lot of effort.

He really was special!

Harrison fell silent.

Considering that this Lord summoned Diana and resolved the issue of special materials before the abnormal weather, she must possess some strength and luck.
