Chapter 634: Fargo’s Warehouse
Next, it was Ansel’s turn to tell his side of the story. He started with their entrance (and subsequent blockage), the travel back, and then the fight with Eli.
“Speaking of, Snow really helped a lot as well,” Ansel said, “It saved a lot of people’s lives for sure.”
They looked at the wolf who was now lying down and behaved on the floor, right outside the play cot. Fufi was next to her, though his eyes were often on the babies crawling. The babies giggled as they crawled towards the dogs, wanting to snuggle though Winona held them back, lifting them with a palm on each tummy.
Their cheeks puffed as they pouted, sending cute attacks to Winona, who softened as they looked at her with their large eyes. However, for their sake, she stayed firm.
“Nono, wait til they get a very good bath,” Winona said, her light-colored eyes shifting to the two dogs, who flinched by instinct. Fortunately, they’d find out later that Snow didn’t mind taking a bath (they knew Fufi loved it) so it wouldn’t be hard to keep them clean.
“What’s the next step for Fargo, er, Limestone Valley?” Ansel asked, pulling his eyes away from Winona.
Althea—relaxedly using her husband’s shoulder as a backrest—looked at the two of them in alteration, smiling, though she didn’t point anything out and just answered the question.
“As for Limestone Valley, we will turn it into a rich village in its own right, but at the same time elevate Altera’s development even more.”
While it would primarily be the village for sourcing limestone, copper, zinc, and lead, she would naturally want it to stand (and make money) on its own. Of course, not to the detriment of Altera’s—which was set to have massive improvements in the future, especially when concrete was perfected.
However, she may have to use her own funds to increase its defense at least, as it barely had any sentries on its outer walls. The deposits were also not within the territory walls, so she’d need to find ways to protect the miners and handle the logistics of everything.
“We need to get the basic amenities working, as well.”
“And utilities,” Ansel said. “They had wells and we can add more. Unfortunately, adding piping like in Altera may be too much work, but we should still be prepared for future improvements.”
They could also build system buildings everywhere, especially dorms, which would fix the shanty and the shit-on-street problem over there as well.
“We also need to send the occasional researcher there to see if there are new plantlife,” Winona said.
Although Fargo was only a day away and the biodiversity here was limited, who knew if there were still finds, especially since the geology was different from Altera’s.
The team continued to discuss boring stuff and only paused when they heard a soft sound.
Their attention shifted to a little yawn, followed by another.
It was the babies, looking very sleepy. Their eyes were about to close, their little mouths making small ‘o’s as they yawned.
Little Theo, who was playing closely to Pepper (though usually very quiet), also yawned, and this was followed by the ‘big kids’ Maya and Horus.
It was adorable and they put soft smiles on everyone’s faces.
“Well, there’s still a lot to decide on, but we’re not in too much of a rush…” Althea said, adjourning the casual meeting.
“I’ll leave the event tomorrow to you,” Althea told her brother, referring to the small carnival held the next day to celebrate their first win.
As always, since they had the money, why not improve the morale upwards on a straight line.
So, they decided to turn it into a thing—create a carnival for every big victory the territory experienced. This would not only boost morale, it would also strengthen the sense of unity and sense of self among the people.
And… who said such events wouldn’t be profitable?
Certainly not Ansel or Althea!
…
Later that night, before going to bed, Althea habitually went to check on her warehouse. Her husband was already in bed with the babies and she teleported to her warehouse to check on it, as was her habit every few days.
She cleaned and organized the vague items the system couldn’t organize itself. There was no interesting new find, which was understandable because of the lack of biodiversity in this plane, but she couldn’t help but want to explore further anyway…
When Winona said more researchers should be sent to Fargo, she definitely wanted to be one of them. No, she wanted to reach more, farther, but right now she was the lord in an unstable place, and she knew it wasn’t the time for her to go exploring, at least not yet.

Exploration…
Warehouse…
Somewhere along the way, just before she headed back to her room, she came to an idea and her feet paused.
“Warehouse, eh?” She mumbled, an experimental idea dawning on her. The space in the warehouses was very special and its ability was incredibly convenient for moving around things in the territory—even her own body.
So…what about… other warehouses?
With this thought, her whole body suddenly felt wobbly, and she belatedly realized that her surroundings had shifted. She blinked, looking around.
It was a warehouse, but one a level smaller than what she was used to. There was also a limited variety of things… none of which she had been looking at a minute prior.
After a second of thought (and disbelief), she realized what happened. This was not Altera’s warehouse—it was Limestone Valley’s!!
This meant that, to some degree, the warehouses were also merged—accessible to her!
Her eyes were bright as she looked at the piles and piles of money and resources (well, nothing compared to Altera but still). Most of the space was unsurprisingly occupied by readily-needed resources like stone, wood, and the Flute Plants for their restaurant.
There was not much of anything else, not really. While a little disappointed, she was still in a very good mood.
After all, this meant she could easily transfer the limestones, copper, and other resources back to Altera with a lot less effort than she thought! She could also transfer important resources from Altera to Fargo!
And more importantly, this meant she could teleport to Limestone Valley whenever she wanted!
How Happy!!
