Frost made his way towards the manufacturing district to meet with some of the workshops owners he didn't get a chance to visit yesterday as well as the ones who showed some basic interest. Unlike regular shops, workshops were more open to the prospect of a new budding territory, especially one like Frost's given its close proximity to a dungeon as they depended far more on materials than customers. By setting up a workshop in Frost's territory they could easily rake in and treat a vast amount of monster materials. The end products could then be transported back to Furano to be displayed in their established shops. Of course, most were still not willing to make any substantial moves until the territory proved itself nonetheless it gave Frost an inkling for the future.
Not the most exciting chapter but still important to the kingdom/ dungeon buildign aspect.
