The twenty-four households, almost all like the Macy family, were moved to tears by Soren's benevolent act.

This was solely because the area of the houses Soren compensated them with was 1.5 times the original area.

Since some of the land belonged to the city's public area, after settling the twenty-four households, there were still three floors of the tenement building left empty.

Due to the haphazard construction of the shacks, many places were wasted.

If they could be integrated and utilized, the usable space would greatly increase.

After some thought, Soren decided to allocate the remaining three floors, a total of 72 rooms, to the people who had no houses to live in due to the construction of the pharmaceutical workshop.

This decision caused a great sensation at once.

All the people knew that as long as their houses were demolished by His Highness the Crown Prince, they would be able to live in such brand new and comfortable houses.

Hearing that Soren had given the remaining houses to the 'peasants,' many civil servants who had been busy during this time couldn't help but show a look of regret on their faces.

Originally, they thought they could get one.

Soren naturally saw their little thoughts at a glance and stood in front of the podium of the new house with a smile, giving a speech.

"Everyone seems very satisfied with the new houses. I, the Crown Prince, hereby guarantee to all the people of Fuljia City that in the future, I will do my best to ensure that all the people live in such houses. I will continue to work hard to improve everyone's living environment so that every family can have a warm and comfortable home."

As soon as Soren finished speaking, the people under the stage burst into thunderous cheers. The sound was like a wave, full of expectations for a better life in the future and trust and gratitude towards Soren.

Returning to the wide and magnificent hall of the Imperial Bank Building, looking at the luxurious decorations everywhere, Soren couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Similarly, the Imperial Bank only had four floors, but its cost was twenty times that of the tenement building.

This made Soren deeply realize the importance of cement.

"Your Highness! Everyone is here." Jennifer reminded him softly.

"Okay!" Soren responded, then walked out of the gate of the Imperial Bank and stood steadily on the steps.

"We've seen it. It's very good!"

"Good, that's right. Then do you want it or not?" Soren asked again.

"Yes!" This time, even the slow-witted people reacted.

"In the following time, I will give priority to the transformation of the East and West districts, demolishing the shanty towns bit by bit and building new houses. And I will also specially allocate an area for officials and civil servants to build a batch of houses and allocate them to you who are loyal to the Empire."

After Soren finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile.

In an instant, deafening cheers immediately rang out, like a surging tide, wave after wave.

"If you want to live in a new house, it's not enough for me, the Crown Prince, to work hard alone. I still have to rely on you to work hard too!" Soren said the last sentence in a half-joking tone.

However, these seemingly easy words made the civil servants present feel like they had been injected with chicken blood. They were all full of passion and couldn't wait to return to their posts and work hard.

Siko was one of the small civil servants. To be precise, his whole family were civil servants of Fuljia City.

His father was a civil servant in the East District Civil Affairs Office. When he was older, he passed the position on to Siko.

Siko also had an older brother. Because his brother had been a soldier, he was arranged to enter the Public Security Bureau two years ago and became a city security officer, which was also considered a civil servant.

Although the two brothers were both civil servants, and their parents had saved money for many years, they barely bought a two-story house in Fuljia City. The upper and lower floors together were only about seventy or eighty square meters.

It seemed not bad, but besides his parents, they also had their own wives and children. A family of a dozen people lived in this house of only seventy or eighty square meters, which was extremely crowded.

But if they wanted to buy a new house, with the current sky-high prices in Fuljia City, let alone small civil servants like them, even lower-level officials would feel a headache if they wanted to buy a house as big as theirs.

Originally, their family planned to continue saving money and prepare to buy another small wooden house in the outer city, but they didn't expect such a pleasant surprise.

His Highness the Crown Prince was going to distribute houses to them.

Siko had seen those houses. Each room didn't seem big, but they had two brothers!

They could get two sets. When the time came, the eldest brother would live in the original small wooden house, and he and his wife would move to live in the tenement building.

It was also a pretty good choice.

Siko's conditions were actually considered good. There were still many civil servants whose houses were not much better than those shacks.

With the tempting carrot given by Soren, the executive power of Fuljia City was greatly improved.

The pharmaceutical workshop, which originally needed three days to start construction, could now start tomorrow.

The shacks, which originally needed three or four days to be measured, were measured in just one day, and then the designated shacks were demolished cleanly in half a day, making full preparations for the construction team to enter smoothly.

Due to insufficient cement production, only two buildings could be built at the same time, based on the first tenement building as the standard.

After all, Soren had to save some cement for building the road to the imperial capital.

Just when Fuljia City was developing rapidly, a messenger galloping from the imperial capital brought the emperor's decree, asking him to return to the imperial capital as soon as possible.

After receiving the decree, Soren carefully calculated the time and found that he had to return to the imperial capital a few days earlier.

This time, Soren decided to leave Anka in Fuljia City, in case Lilianna and the others came looking for them.

So that they wouldn't be unable to find anyone. After all, the pharmaceutical workshop was so conspicuously placed there. With Lilianna's excellent alchemy talent, she would definitely come to inquire, and then she would naturally come to find them.

Because they were in a hurry, they galloped all the way, and even had a mage bless them with Lightness and Swiftness spells, causing the warhorses to explode with a speed of up to 260 kilometers per hour all the way.

Emperor Gustav woke up from a nap and stretched. According to the normal return time, Soren would not be back for at least two days.

"Your Majesty! His Highness the Crown Prince is back."
