With the completion of the small Summer Resort, the area gradually grew bustling. Nobles and high-ranking officials who had not previously purchased homes here now returned to the Crown Prince to ask for help in building estates of their own. After all, the houses were exceptionally well-built, genuinely staying warm in winter and cool in summer. The small bridges and flowing streams possessed a wonderfully aesthetic ambiance, while the interior furnishings and decor surpassed even those of the Imperial Palace.
The Crown Prince was quite delighted, as he had indeed earned a vast fortune from these houses. The profits from constructing these small summer resorts filled his coffers to overflowing. He became all the more convinced that my idea of building houses to sell was a lucrative enterprise. Whenever orders came in, he gladly accepted them, especially since he did not have to put in any physical effort.
Meanwhile, I had recently been plotting to dig a massive trap for them—a never-ending construction project. With nothing better to do, I would gesture and measure around the site. Even if they ever finished building it, it would take at least ten years. Given their financial strength and my sabotage from behind the scenes, there was simply no way they would ever complete it.
