MTLNOVEL Chapter 516, Buying Slaves_1
When the light dissipated, the Stone Castle was finally built.
[Level 11 Lord's Stone Castle]
[Upgrade Requirements: Tough Wood 35000, Stone Bricks 28000, Fine Stone Bricks 8200, Lithistone Flooring 1500, Iron 3000, Cast Iron Block 1500, Metal Parts 1800, Tiles 5500.]
The upgrading conditions were still met.
After all, he had accumulated materials for nearly two months, and production from the Undead Skeletons went uninterrupted.
The number of materials was enough for him to complete another upgrade.
To elevate the level to twelve.
At this moment, he was confident that even if every transmigrator has their own advantage, no one could surpass level twelve.
His skeletons were involved in uninterrupted production and processing twenty-four hours a day.
Even the most ruthless of capitalists couldn't surpass him.
He doubted anyone could beat his collection and production speed.
Furthermore, his territory included the Bloody Mountain Range and Frostwind Mountain Range, two large stone mining and iron mining areas.
Others simply couldn't compare.
Light once again enveloped the manor, this time the upgrade process taking one and a half hours. Explore stories at empire
Not wishing to wait aimlessly, he headed to the Blackstone Training Grounds to observe the maids' training.
From afar, he heard the 'smack smack' sounds of effort.
And maids' cries with sobs in their voices.
Due to the blockage from the structures, Fang Hao quickened his steps.
He poked his head around a building.
He saw three maids, bent over a stone bench, bottoms in the air.
Meanwhile, Anjia wielded a tree branch, menacingly striking their behinds.
The girls yelped in pain with each strike, their bodies trembling.
"If you steal food from the back again, I'll paddle your bottoms raw, and then I'll tell Fang Hao, let him kick you out," warned Anjia.
The girls only cried out a few times.
However, upon hearing that Fang Hao might expel them, their faces turned as white as a sheet.
"Anjia, please don't tell our master, didn't I play with you before? Please don't tell him," one begged.
Anjia merely intended to frighten them but remained stern, "Train hard then and I won't report you. If Aseti finds out and reports you, as long as you've been training, you'll be safe."
"Alright, we understand. We'll train hard," the maids sobbed in agreement.
"Good, get going then."
The three immediately rose and joined the other maids in training.
Anjia also returned to the training ground.
Leading the maids as they practiced their boxing.
With each punch thrown, a breath was exhaled; however, their spirits weren't in it.
A few muscular Earth Spirit ladies stood to the side, commenting and pointing from time to time.
They would shake their heads disdainfully at the maids' showy, pretentious kicks and punches.
Fang Hao took in the scene from afar, deciding not to go over to them.
Instead, he made detour to check on the skeleton tailors, skeleton goldsmiths and other craftsmen, and greet them in passing.
By the time he completed his lengthy detour and returned to the manor, the upgrade was complete.
The Lord's Stone Castle had advanced to level twelve.

Post reaching level twelve.
The size of the Lord's residence received another increase.
Fang Hao and his fellow men could completely fill up three rooms.
The residence gets a bit empty as the heroes have their own homes and chose not to live in the Lord's residence.
Along with a greater size, the Lord's Manor gained new abilities.
Increases were noted in scavenging, troop movement, and all properties.
All in all, pretty satisfactory.
Once everything was done, Fang Hao headed to the stable, mounted a Giant Lizard, and rode to the Glass Production Area outside of the city.
The lord's residence, including the lord's estate and the maids' quarters, were already reinforced with glass.
However, the other subordinate cities were yet to receive such an upgrade.
Fang Hao was reminded by fellow city owners in their chat that winter was swiftly approaching, and all residences ought to have glass for protection against the elements for the comfort of the citizens.
He made straight for the glass factory.
The skeleton laborers there were already hard at work.
When they saw Fang Hao approaching, they continued their activity without any pause.
It was as though he was not there at all.
Fang Hao glanced at the smoothly operating glass factory.
He then turned his attention to the warehouse hastily erected nearby.
The warehouse was simple—a straw shack and wooden stakes—assembled to house batches of ware.
At this point, however, five warehouses were already stacked full of glass panes and all sorts of glassware like bottles and casings.
Since they had not been attended to in a while, and it had recently been raining, everything inside the warehouse was muddied, as if it had been dug up from a muddy ditch.
Even the wares placed on the top were covered in mud spots.
Fang Hao briefly scanned the premise.
Then, he dropped a line in the territory chat: "Zhang Bin, Dong Jiayue, Fu Lei, Xu Yang, Lan Yang, Li Rong, each of you gets four panes of glass. If anyone else wants them, each glass panel is two Warfire Coins—reselling inside this channel is prohibited."
