Three Months Later

Time flowed on, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed. It was now March of the new year—the Warm Moon.

This was the first month of spring. All things were coming back to life, symbolizing a fresh start for everything.

This period had been quite good for Richard. Everything had gone smoothly, and all kinds of matters were developing according to plan.

The changes at the Shangbala Uranium Mine were the most striking. After three months of development, it had truly become a colossal entity.

After undergoing multiple rounds of testing, the rail tracks had been fully implemented. Main lines ran from the mountain down to its base and across the mine from one side to the other, densely packed like the blood vessels of a giant.

This obviously greatly accelerated ore extraction, raising efficiency by more than twofold.

More and more branch lines were also being laid, constantly improving the transportation network and further increasing efficiency.

The number of people working in the mine had now approached ten thousand. It could be said that Richard had hired nearly every skilled miner in Shangbala Town, and miners from other distant places had even come after hearing the news to seek employment.

These nearly ten thousand people lived in a mine with largely complete facilities, gradually giving it the beginnings of an industrial city.

At this point, the mine was like a massive ancient beast. Every day, it devoured huge quantities of ore, gnawing away small mountains at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Afterward, the ore underwent a series of processes and was transported throughout the Southern Free Federation. Of course, a small, unknown portion of it also flowed into Richard's Eden Garden.

Eden Garden.

After three months, this place had also changed considerably.
