Chapter 1167: Chapter 674: Demolition and Recruitnt (Part 2)
Konoe Maki hesitated a little, but finally ca forward to ask.
The recent battle had completely made her realize the terrifying power of the seemingly weak little witch in front of her, so at this mont, the Bureau Chief was sowhat cautious.
As for Dorothy, she extended a magic tentacle, disdainfully picked up the demon blade Maple from the unconscious body of Izanagi, and without waiting for this burned woman to say anything pointless, she snapped and broke the demon blade, which had reverted back to its near-broken state after losing Izanagi’s power support, into two pieces.
Ah, that’s much more comfortable now.
Casually tossing away the broken demon blade, looking at Maple who was restored to her original form after death, the hobody witch let out a breath.
Afterwards, she reached out and grabbed the three strands of Dragon Vein power that were about to dissipate with the host’s death.
Because Izanagi was truly dead this ti, these three strands of Dragon Qi, which were originally polluted by his evil thoughts, began to gradually return to normal—what a treasure they are.
After finishing all this, the hobody witch finally turned her head to look at the Bureau Chief waiting for her reply.
“I said before, our Witch’s Ho is a legitimate construction guild, and next is to fulfill the commitnt to build a public toilet here. Oh, by the way, Ms. Bureau Chief, in addition to this piece of land, I also bought so other plots from Amaterasu Shrine, but if everyone resists the demolition like this, our work will be difficult to carry out.”
While Dorothy took out a thick stack of land deeds from her pocket, she lanted and blinked at the Bureau Chief in front of her.
Konoe Maki: “……”
Aren’t you trying to buy the whole of Japan?
Looking at the land deeds in the hobody witch’s hand, the Bureau Chief couldn’t help but complain inwardly.
However, the very perceptive Konoe Maki had already grasped the intention of the terrifying little witch before her. She imdiately stepped forward, patted her bulging chest, and assured.
“Madam, I understand your difficulty. Since you have all the legal docunts from the Shrine in hand, our Guard Bureau will certainly strive to uphold your rightful interests.”
“Thank you very much for that.”
Dorothy also seed very grateful, tightly holding the hand of this pretty Bureau Chief.
Then she handed over the land deeds to Konoe Maki and quietly watched her reaction,
And the Bureau Chief extended her hand to receive the land deeds. With just a glance, she froze.
The first region sketched on the thick pile of land deeds was all too familiar to her, because it was her family’s territory.
Being one of the top tier Gosho Families among Japan’s many prominent families, and one of the strongest among them, the Konoe Family was exceedingly powerful, controlling Japan’s guard system while also possessing vast territories.
And now, her family’s territory was completely marked on this demolition planning map….
“What’s wrong, Bureau Chief? Is there anything you need to ask, just go ahead, I will tell you everything I know.”
Dorothy looked at Konoe Maki with slightly trembling hands and smiled as she asked.
And the Bureau Chief took a deep breath, finally looking up, her gaze solemnly fixed on this terrifying little witch before asking seriously.
“May I ask, what’s your plan after demolishing all these lands? This is a good plot. Is there a plan to build a palace or sothing?”
Konoe Maki tightly watched the person before her, observing her reaction.
“Palace? What would we build that for? As you said, this is a Feng Shui treasure land, the soil is rich, the water source is abundant, and the seasons are distinct; it’s ideal for farming, isn’t it?”
Dorothy looked at the Bureau Chief in front of her, sowhat speechless.
“Farming?”
Konoe Maki paused; she had thought of many things but hadn’t expected this answer.
“Farming requires a lot of manpower.”
She said.
“That is indeed a problem. Our guild isn’t lacking anything at present, just manpower. How about this? When the Bureau Chief facilitates the demolition, please ask if anyone is willing to join our guild.”
“However, our guild has just been founded, and we spent all our budget buying territories from the Shrine. If there are too many people, it might be unsustainable, so let’s use the Spirit Fields usage rights as collateral and distribute nine-tenths of the Spirit Fields’ yields to employees as wages annually.”
“Bureau Chief, what do you think of my proposal?”
The hobody witch adopted a very troubled look, then pondered deeply before saying this.
Konoe Maki: “…..”
Isn’t this basically getting stuff for free?
The Bureau Chief instinctively wanted to curse, but after thinking carefully and pondering deeply, she was suddenly stunned.
“Madam, do you an each new employee will have a piece of Spirit Field?”
She asked.
“Of course, our guild emphasizes fairness and justice, being people-centric. More work should lead to more rewards; this is our guild’s principle. Look at this vast land—there’s enough work for every mber, right?”
Dorothy sowhat surprisedly looked at the Bureau Chief who imdiately caught onto the point, her gaze showing so appreciation.
“Then I have no problem with it. Madam, please rest assured, I promise to execute this beautifully.”
Konoe Maki said, her eyes gleaming brightly.
“Yes, yes, how could I not trust your work, Bureau Chief?”
Dorothy smiled, exchanging pleasantries.
And so, the hobody witch began to lead the Hyakki to build the public toilet, while the Guard Bureau started to distribute demolition notices across the island.
Just as the Guard Bureau left, several more groups swiftly arrived at this bustling construction site.
For instance, the Kujo Family, also one of the Gosho Families.
The forr Great Tengu of Monster Mountain, Kujo Minren, ca along with her two granddaughters and cheerfully took a demolition notice from the hobody witch.
Also having recently beco the new Bureau Chief, Abe Seii…
In short, a vigorous demolition and recruitnt campaign unfolded across Japan.
So protested acting as holdout hoowners, while others eagerly applied, aiming to beco new employees.
…….
A month passed in a flash.
“Mamma mia, I’m exhausted. It’s finally done.”
On the construction site, Dorothy gazed at the clean and tidy giant public toilet before her, revealing a smile of satisfaction.
The once Heaven’s Guard Pavilion was gone, now replaced by a structure resembling a shrine.
Of course, although it looked like a shrine, its function was that of a public toilet.
After all, this was Izanagi’s burial ground, and the hobody witch figured the attempt of this father of Japan to sacrifice the entire island deserved everyone’s gratitude and commoration through bathroom visits.
Well, whoever’s pee is yellow goes first.
Though it seed a bit like a joke, this shrine toilet was indeed a marvelous architecture, which had effects of suppressing evil spirits, purifying corrupt Qi, transforming garbage into fertilizer, and making waste into treasure.
This was Dorothy’s first ti constructing a marvelous architecture in reality, and the result turned out to be a toilet, which surprised the hobody witch sowhat.
But whatever, buildings are all equal; there’s no distinction between higher and lower nobility differences. Toilets aren’t inferior to palaces; in fact, in terms of importance, one can live without a palace, but can’t without a toilet. That’s even more crucial.
The only pity is that the hobody witch doesn’t need to use the restroom. As a Dragon Witch, her Dragon Stomach has imnse digestive abilities, akin to a Pixiu, only absorbing without expelling. This ant she couldn’t be the first to use the wondrous architecture she painstakingly created, truly a little regrettable.
“Ugh, despite drinking water crazily for days, not even a drop.”
Dorothy regretfully patted her stomach.
Despite being an ineffective foreman, her Hyakki underlings rushed in one by one to relieve themselves joyfully.
Yes, it seems a wise Sage once said, going to the bathroom is actually a relaxing enjoynt.
It’s just a sha, the hobody witch found it hard to experience such relaxation, so she reluctantly turned to head ho.
She had been out for quite a while; the publicity outside should probably have faded away by now, maybe she really should go ho.
….Dorothy misses her ho…
