"This..."
Vera Williams seemed to think of something and then said, "I believe it might still be because of that treasure map."
She glanced at Leonard Churchill's puzzled expression and explained, "Federation law stipulates that the ownership of newly developed mining areas must be registered to avoid disputes. The gold mine that Count Fremont and Councilor Boen are fighting over is actually due to a problem with ownership. It's said that Count Fremont's prospecting team discovered the gold mine first and was preparing to register it. However, the news was supposedly leaked. Councilor Boen sent people to mine it first, showing actual mining activity. Of course, both parties claim they discovered it first. Then the conflict arose, and to avoid such situations, the Federation also enacted some laws. As long as you are the first to register with the Federal Parliament, there won't be any dispute over the mine vein's ownership."
