"Mr. Rene, have you started upgrading the Overlord's Hall?"
It was a message from Jessica.
She was very curious about Rene's current territory.
Actually, she was not the only one asking. Just now, Rene had received countless private messages asking about this matter.
Usually, those who could ask this question at this time were Overlords who already had a considerable advantage.
However, Rene ignored them.
As for Jessica's inquiry?
"Should I tell her?" Rene pondered.
Actually, this was not very important information.
The only thing that had an impact on Rene was the price of bronze in the market.
But there was actually no need to worry about this now.
The sensitive players were wary of the transaction, so there was not much point in hiding it.
In addition…
There were actually benefits to telling others.
First of all, he could let all the players in the world know that Rene was ahead of everyone else. There would definitely be more people fawning over him in the future, and the profits from the deal would naturally be greater.
In comparison, Rene naturally did not choose to hide it.
"Yes."
Rene chose to send a group message.
Since he was going to announce it, it would be best for everyone to know about it.
"Big brother is awesome!"
"Invincible!"
"How many building spots are there in the Level 2 Overlord's Hall?"
"Are there any other blueprints?"
"Gosh! I just started the fourth building, but the big shot has already started upgrading the Overlord's Hall! Awesome!!!"
After learning the accurate news, all the players were shocked.
At this time, many people wanted to know the new function of a Level 2 Territory, but Rene didn't answer.
For starters, Rene himself forgot to check the changes on the other pages.
Second, telling them would accelerate the price increase of bronze.
This kind of thing could be hidden for a while.
At the very least, he had to earn some money first.
...
At the same time, when Rene answered the private message question, the affirmative answer was spread through the chat.
Everyone received accurate information.
"Boss Rene has upgraded to Level 2 Overlord's Hall!"
When this news spread, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
Almost all topics revolved around this point.
The private messages asking about Rene also showed signs of increasing crazily.
In just a few minutes, millions of people asked about the situation in the Level 2 Overlord's Hall.
Fortunately, Rene had turned on the filter.
Otherwise, there was no way he could engage in conversation with Jessica.
[Jessica (0145): Mr. Rene, can you take a look at the changes in the level 2 guild? Are there blacksmiths available?]
Blacksmith?
Why did she want blacksmiths?
Unless she had a blueprint for making tools.
Moreover, it must be very useful to the players in the early stages. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so anxious.
At this thought, Rene wanted to know what kind of blueprints the other party had.
However, he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he replied normally.
"There are," Rene said.
"Then can I ask Mr. Rene to sell me a few blacksmiths? I can provide half of the resources needed to upgrade the guild."
Jessica offered an astonishing offer.
She hoped that Rene would first upgrade the [Elementary Guild]. For this, she was willing to provide half of the resources needed to upgrade the building.
The requirement for this help was that she wanted a few blacksmiths!
"I can consider it, but I really want to know what kind of blueprint you have that you're in such a hurry," Rene said.
Hearing this inquiry, Jessica was silent for a time.
In the end, she sent over a picture.

[Simple Water Condensing Machine Blueprint]
Quality: None
Effect: Condense water vapor and produce distilled water.
Materials: Wood: 0 / 10, Iron: 0 / 2, Bronze: 0 / 2.
Introduction: Water Condensing Machine, rune device for a daily necessity. However, due to the lack of a core and the lack of the blueprint of the rune parts, the water condensing effect is severely reduced.
————
There were different grades of tools and equipment in the Overlord's world. They were roughly divided into: Normal, Superior, Flawless, Rare, Epic, Legend, and Myth.
However, if the item was damaged, it would not show its quality.
For example, the blueprint in front of him.
Even so, Rene's pupils constricted.
It was because this tool was the same as the Soft Water Slime.
If such a device was developed without restraint, the value of the Soft Water Slimes would be affected.
Of course, in comparison, the Soft Water Slime was more practical.
After all, it didn't require any cost. It only needed a ball of water and the slime to edit it. Furthermore, when producing water, it didn't need to consume anything else. It wasn't like condensing water; which required wood to condense drinking water.
"I see," Rene said, "Miss Jessica, how about we make a deal?"
"Deal? What deal?" Jessica asked curiously.
The next moment, she saw Rene's message.
"I want to invest in your Water Condensing Machine."
Invest?
The girl in the other forest frowned.
Investment was a very common term.
But hearing it in this world was still too shocking.
Jessica asked quickly, "How?"
"It's very simple. You have the blueprint, I have the resources, you're in charge of production, and I'm in charge of providing the raw materials. The two of us can work together and make it big!"
Rene stated his purpose.
Jessica hardly hesitated. She nodded with resolve, "I accept your proposition."
The choice to accept was inevitable.
It was because she couldn't expand her business alone, she needed a lot of materials to make the Water Condensing Machine.
Iron and bronze were very scarce resources.
With Jessica's strength alone, there was no way to expand the production.
As for drinking water, it was an important resource in the early stages. If one did not earn profits from this aspect in the early stages, it would be too late to rely on drinking water to earn money when everyone started building wells.
Hence, she had to find someone to collaborate with to speed up the development of the project.
And now, the most powerful partner was Rene.
With the profits generated by the drinking and machete industries, he could easily support the production of water condensers.
Still, the hardest thing to agree on is benefits.
Thinking of this, Jessica asked, "What is the cooperation plan and profit distribution?"
"Since it's your blueprint, you can start this factory. I'll give you the metals such as bronze and bronze, as well as other resources you need every day. As for profits…"
Rene seemed to be thinking.
At this moment, Jessica took the initiative to say, "You can take 70% while I get 30%."
"No problem. Happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation."
