This way, it can reduce the trust costs between both parties.

The bank in the industrial area is not far from Horace's textile mill, situated at the center of a district surrounded by factories, with chimneys spewing thick smoke.

The main structure of the bank is built of sturdy bricks and stones, with tall columns supporting a wide porch. Though not luxuriously decorated, it exudes a sense of stability and grandeur, showcasing its impressive stature.

The emblem above the entrance is a modified version of the Andes Family's crest.

Entering the bank, the hall is spacious and bright, with simple magic chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, emitting a soft, warm glow.

The floor is laid with slightly rough stone slabs, with footsteps echoing throughout the hall.

Staff in dark uniforms bustle behind neatly arranged wooden counters, focused and skilled, handling various transactions in an orderly manner. This bank primarily serves the nearby factories, with ledgers densely recording the financial dealings of these establishments.

[Earth-eating Rich Man] and Carl approached a client manager, with [Earth-eating Rich Man] first voicing the intent to deposit money and the wish for the bank to liaise with Carl for procurement needs.

The client manager warmly received them and, following standard procedures, guided them through a series of meticulous deposit steps, securely depositing 400 gold coins into the account.

The bank under the Andes Family is exceptionally professional in dealing with financial transactions, given their history spanning centuries, even having factories and mines under their own banner as supply channels, which can be recommended to clients in need.

Even though this world's industry standards are somewhat sloppy, the Andes Family's crest is enough to serve as a reassuring guarantee to all parties.

This is the primary reason for their longstanding success in the financial industry, even the Royal Family borrows money from them.

After completing the deposit, Carl took out design blueprints and discussed procurement details thoroughly with the client manager, confirming materials types, specifications, and quantities one by one.

[Earth-eating Rich Man], meanwhile, supplemented with his own ideas and requirements, earnestly instructing the client manager to tightly collaborate with Carl, precisely track and meticulously record every transaction, ensuring the dormitory building project meets expectations.

After hearing the client's needs, the formally dressed client manager confidently assured them.

"Rest assured, gentlemen, we shall handle every matter as per your requests, ensuring every cent is spent where it should be."

"That's the best." Carl removed his top hat and solemnly shook the client manager's hand, "Pleasure working with you."

The client manager smiled in return.

"Pleasure working with you!"

After completing all matters, [Earth-eating Rich Man] bid farewell to Carl and returned to the construction site.

Standing in the center of the site, he cleared his throat and called out the names of Tom and others.

Soon, Tom and the rest of the crew gathered from various construction areas, dust-covered and puzzled, unsure why their leader summoned them.

[Earth-eating Rich Man] took a deep breath and solemnly pulled out the heavy pouch of 50 gold coins from his bosom, loosening the string before them.

The clinking of coins instantly drew everyone's attention.

"Brothers, listen up. As long as you work diligently for me, not only will you receive your agreed-upon wages, once our project is complete, each of you will receive a gold coin bonus! That's right, each one of you!"

He articulated each word firmly and powerfully, the sound carrying far in the noisy construction site.

Tom and the others were momentarily stunned, seemingly unable to believe their ears.

A single gold coin!

In all their years, they hadn't even seen the Emperor engraved on a gold coin?

Once they comprehended, excitement began to appear on their faces, some breathing rapidly, faces flushed, and even their eyes moistening.

Especially Tom, whose lips trembled with excitement, fists clenched, voice slightly choked, loudly assured.

"Rest assured, boss, we'll definitely do our best!"

Not just him, but a stooped man in coarse linen stepped from the crowd, hurriedly shouting.

"Yes! Boss places such trust in us, we absolutely can't let you down!"

That voice expressed the sentiments of many, quickly echoed by others.

"That's right!"

"We have to do this job beautifully, not let down the boss's expectations!"

The surrounding crew chimed in with simple yet earnest words, their eyes filled with determination and gratitude.

Seeing their excitement, [Earth-eating Rich Man] was also touched, taking a deep breath he said.

"Rest assured, as long as you don't let me down, I certainly won't let you down!"

After motivating the crew, [Earth-eating Rich Man] returned to join the other players, carefully putting away the remaining 50 gold coins for safekeeping.

They all knew those remaining 50 gold coins were crucial, serving as a contingency fund for unexpected situations.

In this game world full of uncertainties, nobody knows what might happen in the next moment.

With these funds, it's like having an extra layer of confidence, granting them more calmness and capability to face the unknown difficulties.
