Lysander astutely sensed the underlying message in his words. “Are you planning to develop this area. yourself?”

Josiah replied seriously. “After observing for the past couple of days, I’ve found that the development potential here is greater than expected. Not only does it have picturesque scenery, but it also has a rather interesting local culture. The downside is that the supporting
