In the end, Zhao Wenliang and his companions checked into the Mountain and Sea Station.
Getting a job at the Watch Factory was completely out of the question for them.
The Fire Dragon Trading Company had already begun selling watches. The Watch Factory was under strict supervision, with workers on four shifts producing watches twenty-four hours a day. It was very difficult for any private individual to profit by flipping them.
In fact, watches were considered a rarity even within Eggshell Village. They weren't yet common among the "big shots" in Eggshell Castle and the major organizations, and many people who wanted to buy one still couldn't.
Zhang Lengzi had passed word to Eggshell Castle, informing Jelena of the arrival of Zhao Wenliang and his two companions.
Jelena granted them a brief audience.
Now that the Celestial Net Country had surrendered, their delegation was suing for peace. They had agreed to pay war reparations and offer various rare and exotic treasures.
