As more and more people began to pour into Star Town, all the work was being rapidly set on the right track, with the True Silver Mine set to commence excavation soon.
In fact, the Mahara merchant had been urging repeatedly.
But this mine, dating back 1500 years, was incredibly complex; the vein ran very, very deep. The surveyors had been exploring for two days without reaching the bottom, and they had discovered many unknown passages that seemed not to have been carved out by human hands.
There was also severe pollution within the vein and even the presence of Crystal Monsters.
Yet, to ease concerns, Rod forcefully renovated and reopened the upper layers of the mine.
Even though the yield was only several hundred thousand silver coins, it brought stability to the Royal City.
However, the cost of mining the True Silver Vein was higher than expected. In addition to the miners' wages and miscellaneous expenses, a special solvent was needed to dissolve the mineral structure.
