A month passed by.
The meeting of the elders and the prophecy of the future were all hidden from the general public. No one knew death was approaching the central continent at breakneck speed.
Alex, who didn't have an inkling of the danger was roasting peanuts in his backyard. For the past month, he was wholly concentrated on developing his farm. And the produce from the farm was sold directly in Blue Gem City.
His business grew at a tremendous speed. Unknown to him, Alex had already become a major player in the economy of the blue gem city.
Other than medicinal plants and magic herbs, the crops from Alex's farm were considered the best among the rich. So, the demand was always higher than the supply. And it was a good thing for Alex. He could sell some crops at a premium and make a lot of money. And the money he amassed was in thousands of gold coins.
