(Unedited)
…
Central Town is a bustling town and is always filled with people. However, these days the people in the town seem to have increased far too much that the town became too crowded.
Inside the town, many travelers, merchants, adventurers, and mercenaries are currently trading, buying, and strolling in the bustling town.
In the span of less than a month, the changes in the town are far too evident as the people were too accepting of the new things that are presented to them by the Mystique Shop. If the shop does not have that power and prestige then these changes would have not occurred. However, the Mystique Shop has the support of the town and its people.
Plus they could deny that the shop holds power. The presence of the Grand Mage Phil Mason alone has already stopped the other towers to cause trouble with the shop, how much more with the support of the Town's head and other leaders which have greatly benefited from their dealing with the shop.
It is true that Hua Xiao is truly good at marketing and making interpersonal relationships with others. With her at the helm, Mystique Shop's influence began to spread through the town not only to the people but especially to the merchants.
After the whole day of work, the people inside the huge flying ship are resting while taking their stroll atop the ship's deck.
They have already reached the exceeded their quota for today and tomorrow, so they are able to relax for a while.
Ever since the creation of the new machine inside the flying ship, the production doubled and the workload of the people inside of it has been lessened.
Hence people could have more time to relax and concentrate on advancing their strengths and power.
Right at this moment one of the mage guards standing on the ship's railing watching the forests outside suddenly saw three shadows.
"Captain, this is Beta 4, I am seeing three figures approaching our direction from the deep forest, it looks like some beasts…" the guard immediately reported.
When the captain on duty heard this, he immediately ran towards the direction of Beta 4.
However, when he reached the area and saw the people coming, his expression changed from worry to elation. This is because he immediately recognized who those people are. Besides the third one, he knew who the two are; they are Shin Jiao and Loombwark.
"Central Command, this is Captain Paul… Master Shin has returned, please pass the message, the master has returned."
Upon hearing this, the news was spread immediately to the whole ship as a PA announcement from the large speakers in the ship was spread.
Everyone who is not working immediately ran to the ship's deck and waited for the arrival of the ship's master.
When Shin Jiao saw what is happening from afar, he could not help but show a faint smile on his face. It felt like he is coming home to his own family as many smiling faces are ready to welcome him.
"Master Shin!" the one who could not wait is the young boy Im Ao.
He immediately jumps down the ship's deck and ran towards Shin Jiao who immediately alighted the Windfall and walk towards the speedily running little boy.
The boy jumped to his embraces as he coquettishly complained.
"Big Brother Shin, what takes you so long? I was bored on the ship and could not get out that much… Big sister Hua would not let me go with her to town, and my big sister Jae would not play with me, everyone is busy…" Im Ao continuously complained.
Shin Jiao talked to the young boy and the two began to laugh. He admits that he also misses this naughty boy when he was away.
And so he let him sit on the Windfall let him play with it for a while.
As he arrives on the ship many people greeted him and Shin Jiao politely also greeted them. Everyone is happy and glad that the ship's master is finally back.
…
Inside a large conference hall in the ship, a few leaders are already gathered when Shin Jiao has arrived. He has already changed his clothing to a light blue cultivator's robe.
As he enters, everyone showed a hint of excitement in their eyes. They knew that their master went to a place and has met other races inside that place. They are very curious about what happened there in the few days that he was gone.
"Alright, before I tell you my travel story, did anything happen while I was gone?" Shin Jiao said as he sits at the head of the long table.
Everyone immediately reported their progress and the problems they have faced. So far they are all trivial except for the mages from some of the towers causing them some trouble.
But what surprised him the most is the rapid distribution and market opening for most of their products. Even the other towns and villages have heard of their products and many bought them or gave large orders.
The best news of all is the production of Windfall. It seems that the ship is able to produce more than 100 Windfalls a day. And this is somewhat good already; it's like the production capacity of a normal car factory on earth.
He knew that if the Windfall would be widespread throughout the kingdom, then their fame would surely reach even the main cities of the Xinglo Kingdom. When that happens then he could easily enter the city without repercussion and trouble.
Although he already knew the state of the gods in this place, he would not just abuse his power. He is a man with principle after all. He would follow the natural order of things and do things accordingly.
As the meeting proceeded, Shin Jiao was glad and praised the accomplishment of his subordinate. Even the haughty and proud Ansen Wine has contributed when it comes to enchanting weapons and armors. He seems to be fascinated with enchantments and has been leading the group in learning and etching new enchantments.
Although Shin Jiao did not fully trust this guy, for now, he just let him do as he pleases. At least he is not causing him trouble.
After the reports, Shin Jiao began telling them his story in which it has been almost a week since he was gone.
When the people learned about the secret dwarven kingdom and the precious ores that he obtained, everyone showed excitement in their expressions. Plus there is a standing trade between the ship and the humans, now this is something that they wanted.
Most of them want to visit that dwarven kingdom and experience going there at least once.
After the meeting, Shin Jiao went to the factory where the raw materials are being stored. He takes out most of the gems, ores, and crystals that he has obtained from the dwarven kingdom.
The number of raw materials almost filled the entire storage space of the ship.
With the increase of the raw materials, the products that the ship can produce would not stop and would continue from now on.
While visiting the factory, he saw Grand Magus Phil Mason. This old fellow is very busy as he would always be on his drawing board and crafting. His attention is always on his work. The old man did not even meet with him or attends the meeting.
"Hey, Grand Magus Mason… It seems that you are too busy?" Shin Jiao suddenly said as he walks near the guy.
As if a bit startled, Phil Mason looks at Shin Jiao showing a bit of a dumbfounded expression.
Then suddenly he showed a wide smile on his face.
"Hahaha… If it isn't Master Shin… when have you arrive? No… No… forget about that. I have a pressing matter here…" Phil Mason said as he shakes his head filled with his disheveled hair.
"Aiyah… Look… Look at this. I have been baffled by this for days now. I can't seem to stop the procedure… I experienced a couple of explosions these past few days… Sigh…" Phil Mason said as his eyes landed on the metal lump on the table.
The metal lump is connected to many wires and some contraption that Shin Jiao did not recognize.
"Hmm… Hey, I heard that you help them create a new manufacturing machine?" Shin Jiao casually said while walking near the lump of metal.
He then casually inscribes some glyphs on its surface before the rolling energy inside the lump of metal calms down.
"Oh… That this, it's no problem. I and Young Miss Gumal decided to create another one and improved it a bit according to your blueprints…" when he said up to this point his expression suddenly changed.
He is now looking at the lump of metal in Shin Jiao's hand as if he is looking at some precious thing. He could not even control himself and licks his dried lips.
"How… How were you able to do this?" he asked incredulously.
