Chapter 404 Misty Flake Tea House
Morning, the next day, Inala stood at his purchased home, watching small trucks bring in the goods from the railway station.This content originates from n0v3lbin•
The seven trucks unloaded all cargo on a railway that transported everything to Fentan City. There, Wittral hired the services of a transport company to shift the goods from the train to their home.
Wittral actively kept watch at the railway to ensure all the goods were transported properly and nothing was stolen. He had packed them all personally and numbered them to ensure the goods couldn't be stolen a bit here and there during the transit.
"Madam, where shall we put them?" The cargo driver asked upon arriving at the entrance of Inala's home.
"Leave it at the entrance," Inala said and pointed to the courtyard. It wasn't that large and hence was quickly filled with a large stack of goods that continued to pile up. Noticing the bustle, many neighbouring shopkeepers arrived to witness, surprised to see a young woman be the owner.
Inala flashed them a courteous smile and continued with his work. He wasn't free enough to make pleasantries with everyone, especially since the shopkeepers on the street numbered more than a hundred. Wittral would take care of that.
Hence, to avoid them, he purposefully kept himself busy and ordered the cargo drivers to move the barrels and beetred bricks to multiple locations around the house.
In the end, he commissioned them to erect a net around the property, ensuring the construction wouldn't disturb the others and remain unpleasant for passersby. It was merely polite to do so. Besides, making a grand reveal netted more shock value, so that too was one of the reasons.
Inala paid the cargo drivers, noticing that he had used up most of the Briga stolen from Arlfarah Mansion's treasury. He still had some, which was enough for their immediate needs. Beyond that, their tea house would begin making money.
Inala just made an excuse of selling some common Skills to a group of commoners as the reason for earning 1400 Briga. He didn't bring up the topic after that.
The last of the goods was brought in the evening. Wittral accompanied them and noticed everything had been neatly stacked in the available spaces around the property, pleased to see the arrangement. "It's easier to use them."
He liked the net covering the property, for it prevented others from seeing what was happening within. The net currently was three storeys tall, but could be elongated easily. They planned to construct six storeys after all.
