While A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated was bribing Mr. Chen with Dew Wine, Su Yu was doing something similar.

In Orleans City Hall.

Su Yu held the black Magic Crystal Card in his hand, shaking it slightly while smiling at the City Hall Chief— Viscount Anthony Leslie:

“My Lord, this is 200,000 spiritual energy coins. I want to pick a suitable location for my territory.”

After players choose to exchange for territories, for fairness, the land parcels for their territories are randomly arranged by the system.

With good luck, you may get a fertile piece of land;

With bad luck, your territory could be on an isolated island, in the desert, in a swamp, or even on a volcano! The lords assigned to these parcels would cry their hearts out.

However, Su Yu knew there was a hidden rule for acquiring territories: you could bribe the city hall chief.

Once the bribery is successful, the chief would give the player a map. The player could choose a designated parcel on the map to avoid the fate of being assigned to the sea or a volcano.

…

Looking at the number “200,000” on the Magic Crystal Card.

“gulp!” Viscount Leslie swallowed lightly.

He was tempted!

“Ahem!”

Viscount Leslie stood up, speaking solemnly: “We are all working for the Empire. For a brighter future of the empire, I certainly won’t refuse your very reasonable request.”

Viscount Leslie, without showing any emotion, pulled a gold Magic Crystal Card out of his pocket. He swiped Su Yu’s card, deducting the 200,000.

Turning his head, he ordered a few words, and the servant went to the warehouse, carrying a large map that was over one person tall.

…

This time at the city hall, Sky Dragon and Skuru came along as well.

Seeing Su Yu easily spending 200,000 spiritual energy coins, both of them were surprised, their eyes wide.

Skye looked Su Yu up and down, exclaiming in surprise, “Boss Ke, I didn’t realize you were so wealthy!”

During the last campaign, Boss Ke spent 150,000 to buy three ships. This time, he spent another 200,000 smoothly. How wealthy is Boss Ke, exactly?

Sky Dragon looked at Su Yu with new admiration: “President, it’s hard to buy spiritual energy coins on the market now. Each time a large amount of spiritual energy coins appear, they are quickly snatched up.”

“Uncle Zhen Hong’s guild has people watching the spiritual energy coin market 24 hours a day. They can only get a few thousand spiritual energy coins a day. How did you manage to get so many?”

Su Yu did not answer, just shook his finger in front of his mouth and returned a mysterious smile.

Seeing Su Yu’s move, his image in their minds suddenly became more mysterious.

Could it be that this man controls a non-negligible power in the real world?

…

The servant delivered the map, and Su Yu took it and spread it out on the table.

[Orleans City Map (Special Item)]: A map of the entire Orleans City, including location of towns, roads and transportation, mountains and rivers, monster division areas, and detailed information on iron ore, stone ore, forests and other resource points. It updates in real time.

Viscount Leslie leaned in, saying enthusiastically, “Brother Nemesis, this is a map of the whole city. You can choose a suitable parcel on it as your territory. Of course, it has to be in the royal territory.”

Viscount Leslie pointed to the light gold area on the map.

All the land in Orleans City has already been divided up by various large NPC forces, with two-thirds of the area controlled by various local lords (the light red area on the map). The remaining one third is exclusively royal property (the light gold area).

Since Su Yu exchanged his World Prestige with the royal family for a territory, the location could only be within the royal exclusive area.

“Thanks for the reminder!”

Su Yu thanked Viscount Leslie, then turned his attention to the map.

Sky Dragon and Skuru were also curious and came over to Su Yu’s side to give him advice.

…

After staring at the map for a bit, the little girl Sky Dragon pointed to a piece of land on the map and said, “I think this place is good!”

“Look at this place. Not only does it have a river, stone ore, and forest, but it’s also surrounded by deer and wild boars. You won’t have to worry about food and housing here!”

Su Yu took a look at the parcel Little Luo Li was pointing at and shook his head. “The river is too small. If you want to develop the territory into a city, you need a big river to accommodate enough people. Moreover, I want to develop overseas trade in the territory in the future. The territory should be closer to the coastline. This parcel you’re pointing at is too far inland.”

“Let me think.” Skuru raked her fingers through her hair, looking intently at the map:

“According to the president’s requirements, there must be a big river near the territory, the closer to the sea, the better, and there must be abundant resources such as wood and stone, right?”

“That’s correct.”

“How about this! Little Sky and I will help you to select parcels according to the requirements, and you will make the final decision. How about that?”

“Good.”

…

The three of them started to carefully search along the river on the map, placing stones on the parcels that met the requirements as markers.

After selecting all the parcels that met the conditions, they discussed among themselves and determined the best parcel.

It felt very much like selecting a birthplace in the “Civilization” series.

After some discussion, the three finally picked the best parcel.

The parcel was located on the north bank of the downstream of Moonlight River.

Moonlight River is a major river running through Orleans City with plenty of water volume.

Starting from this parcel, you can reach Orleans City by walking 40 kilometers to the west, reach the seaside town of Falling Moon Town by walking 20 kilometers to the south, and the sea is just over ten kilometers to the east.

In addition, the soil of this parcel is fertile, and the nearby forest resources and stone resources are very abundant. This parcel is probably the best of any that players could choose on the entire map!

“Viscount Leslie, I choose here!” Su Yu pointed to the parcel on the map, declaring confidently.

“Hmm, okay.” Viscount Leslie nodded and took out a small notebook for recording: “Coordinates (736, 278), I will report later, and you can come to city hall for the title deed of this land in a month.”

“No problem, but I have one more thing.”

“What’s the matter?” Leslie put his pen and paper aside temporarily and looked at Su Yu.

“Is this map for sale? If so, I am willing to pay a high price!”

Su Yu was very interested in the giant map in front of him. The map included the divisions of the monster areas, stone ore, iron ore, and other resource points. What’s more, it updates in real time.

If he could buy this map, it would save a lot of trouble for the construction of the territory!

“I’m afraid that might not be possible.” Viscount Leslie hesitated. “This is, after all, public property…”

“100,000 spiritual energy coins!”

“Deal.”

…

Half an hour later, on the Moonlight River, a small cargo ship was sailing against the wind.

Although Su Yu’s territory only has one country road connecting to the outside world, there is a Moonlight River between the territory and Orleans City. He can just take a boat to the territory from Orleans City.

The width of the Moonlight River is nearly a kilometer, and there is almost no difference in elevation between Orleans City and the territory. Any resources that are needed in the territory can be brought from Orleans City through the waterway in the future.

He doesn’t think it will take long before his city can be built!

He will certainly use this city as a pivot point to construct [Mage Towers] and other buildings, improve humanity’s strength, and drive the Skuru out of Blue Star!
