Chapter 272
Rakark seemed to have spotted Muhyuk as well.
“Village Chief!”
Rakark called out loudly as he approached. Muhyuk also closed the distance between them.
“How have you been?”
“Great. Things are very good these days.”
“That’s good to hear. It seems like the population has increased quite a bit in just a short time.”
“Indeed. It’s incomparably more active than before.”
He seemed genuinely pleased.
“The land in the north is also in good condition.”
“Really?”
“Yes, it’s sprouting now. With a little more time, we’ll have enough food to last for a while.”
Because the game system was in effect, the growth rate of the crops was incredibly fast.
“What about the mine?”
“I heard it’s supposed to be finished today.”
“Today…”
“Yes, once the development is complete, we’ll need to hire workers…”
“Don’t worry about that part. I’ll make sure to speak to the person in charge.”
“I would be grateful.”
“Do you know where the chief supervisor is?”
“Ah, he should be in the village. Let me see…”
Rakark looked around.
“That’s the inn over there. He’s probably resting inside.”
“Let’s go together.”
“Would that be alright?”
“Of course.”
Muhyuk led Rakark and his companions towards the inn. Upon entering, they found a group of people drinking dark beer.
One of the knights seemed to recognize Muhyuk and whispered something to the person next to him. The man then stood up and approached with a smile.
“Are you Baron Muhyuk, by any chance?”
“Ah, yes.”
Technically, he was a viscount, but close enough.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you here. I’m Ryokan, the supervisor of the mine development. Duke Amur told me not to spare any support and I was looking forward to meeting you, but you weren’t here when I arrived. I’m glad we can finally talk today.”
