Capítulo 274: Chapter 271

After an hour of socializing, a horn sounds from somewhere else in the palace, and Duke Chen comes over to escort Cain and the ladies to the Throne Room. While they didn't really enjoy the enforced time with the ladies of the nobility, they did manage to gain two new friends, a pair of twins. Both are tall and muscular wolf kin women of the Shaman class. They're wearing smart skirt suits, not fancy dresses, so Cain assumes they're someone's clerk, here to bring notes and help with a proposal. 

As they walk, Cain overhears them talking about the imminent annual flooding of the Long Fang River, one of the three dredged canals that lead near the capital and the one that flows through Cain's new territory. Their boss is looking for funding for the repairs that must be done afterward, so Cain decides to give them the heads up.
