Elsewhere, Yu Tu led Yan Mei and Yun Tiange through the mist. The farther they went, the stronger the joy in his heart became.
Bean Sprout emerged on its own amid that comfort, spinning around from time to time as if playing with the surrounding mist.
Yan Mei lifted her skirt, deeply curious. "Is there really a city ahead?"
It was absurdly quiet around them!
Yu Tu said, "Visibility is poor here, but I did see layered shadows. They clearly looked like rows of tall buildings."
Yun Tiange smiled. "If that's true, then that's wonderful. The plants here grow luxuriantly, and there are permanent residents. It really fits our requirements for building a factory. Most importantly, this is an unnumbered planet."
An unnumbered planet was great.
This area fell within the Freedom Sector. If it had been a numbered planet, then according to regulations, they would have needed to pay taxes to the Freedom Sector to open a factory here.
An unnumbered planet could save them a considerable sum.
