<h4>Chapter 796 - Preparations Completed!</h4>
Shortly after all 3 trantors left, Landon headed out towards the main hall.
There, several but let’s and maids were gathered there.
The moment they saw him, they miles amd bowed/curtsied at him.
"Good morning your majesty!"
"Morning everyone," Landon replied.
"I have to say, over the years, you all have done a splendid job which has led me to be thoroughly impressed.
Many-a-times, your skills and work ethics have made me very proud to bring visitors over.
Which shows how hard you all have been working.
So thank you.
Thank you for doing your best."
At thi moment, everyone felt proud and happy to receivepliments from Landon.
Their pay grade itself was higher than those of regr cleaners, cooks, gardeners and other household workers in Baymard
After all, they were royal maids, butlers, gardeners and so on.
They had to clean delicate golden surfaces and other precious materials that needed to be maintained with utmost care.
Their sries were honestly high, which motivated them to work even more.
.
Also, thanks to modern equipment, it wasn’t as strenuous as it was back in the days when they had to take a bucket, kneel on the floor and scrub the entire ce.
Now, things were easier than before.
Everyone felt honoured and a little shy to be thanked by his majesty.
"Your majesty, no need to thank us.
It’s what we ought to be doing."
"Yeah, your majesty.
We get paid handsomely and our health benefits are better than others.
So how can we not work hard?"
"Hmhm.
We even have discounts and can enjoy some of the tourist attractions here in the pce too.
And let’s not even talk about our holiday bonuses."
"Your majesty, working for you is a blessing!".
Everyone bowed/curtsied again merrily.
They truly respected and looked up to his majesty.
Many of them had jobs people in other empires hated.
But not in Baymard.
No royals or anyone less could kill them because of a mistake just like how maids in other empires got killed by their lords and mistresses.
Here, they had rights!
They loved their jobs mostly because of peace of mind and ie stability.
Landon waited for them to calm down a bit before proceeding with his talk.
.
"Yes!
Each and every one of you have done an outstanding job while working here.
And once again, I will need your excellent skills.
2 days from now, several guests from the continent of Romain will be staying in the guest building till January.
They are led by the royals of the Zalipnian empire."
Everyone’s eyes opened broadly in excitement and nervousness.
They had never seen anyone from another continent before.
How would they look like?
Will they look like them?
They were really curious
But they didn’t have any more time to waste.
Very quickly, they flew about the ce like crazy.
"Christina!
Where are the new sets of curtains I requested for?"
"Butler John, I’ll get them right away."
"Thomas!
You and your team will work on the master suites.
I want perfection!
Don’t disgrace our reputation."
"Yes, boss."
"Quickly!
Here’s a list of all the foodstuffs that we’ll serve based on the menu for their first 2 weeks here.
They are over 300 of them.
So take this to the royal ountant for him to prepare the budget and get someone to buy what we need."
"Yes, head maid."
"You!
What are you standing there for?
Check if any of the rooms have any problems!
Are the taps working, are the light bulbs dead?
Check now so that we can get someone to fix anything if needed."
"Hurry up people!
We only have 2 days!"

.
The entire staff was in turmoil but for some reason, they felt overly excited instead.
Landon requested that the 5 story guest building should be used for entertaining the guests.
That building was one of the new buildings in the pce that was used for special guests.
Landon built it like a luxury hotel.
It had rooms with keys, suites and so on.
Each room could house up to 4 people in them.
And the higher one went, the more luxurious the rooms.
Of course,pared to the other floors, the 5th floor just had 4 rooms that took up the entire building floor.
These rooms had mini-bars, walk-in closets, jacuzzi’s and so on.
The Zalipnian royals will stay in these rooms.
All their breakfast and everything else will have to be handled by the staff.
In short, everything needed to be fully prepared for them.
Landon could’ve put them in a hotel, but they were too many in number.
So if they stayed in hotels for months till January while paying for their food and buying items, it might be a little too much.
Lucia and the rest had managed to survive this long, and 70% of the money that they left their empire with had been left behind while they were on the run.
If not for the additional money Landon gave them, they would really be in a pinch.
Plus, their gold coins were very different from what was used in the Pyno continent.
Which was also problematic.
But with the money Landon gave them, they should have no problems enjoying themselves since they would live and eat im the pce here for free... Well, Landon was paying for their stay here.
He had so much money from various missions so as a super-wealthy man, it cost him nothing.
.
Moving on, Landon also hired guards for them too.
Yup!
Even though they were warriors, many were injured.
In other words, they were defenceless.
That’s why he got guards for them too.
He also assigned several chauffeurs and vehicles for them as well.
But he felt that they might not even want to use them for them.
Almost everyone who came here chose to explore, who on trains, taxis, buses and so even walk.
Being a tourist was great.
And many people prefer to discover Baymard’s wonders for themselves.
Again, Landon had someone call the news stations as well.
He had already discussed with Lucia and the rest about the arrival.
They were royal allies and should be treated as such when they came.
It was the same when Carmelo, Penelope and the rest came.
This was also good publicity that showed that Baymard was friends with this nation.
It was belittling for him not to give them a wee as many might think that he was looking down on them.
And in turn, his people might look down on them too.
How are ruler ce importance on things, will be noted and done by his people too.
Treat everyone fairly and equally, unless they were in hiding like the case with Micheal and Sirius.
That’s why he wanted the news stations to capture the warm wee and smile of these Zalipnians when they arrive.
.
Additionally, Landon had also spoken to Warden Mitchen about sending men to pick up Whitebeard and the rest.
Sigh... There was so much to do and arrange within these few days that he barely slept a wink.
Lucy, Mother Kim, Mother Winnie, Little Momo and Little Linda ran around as well.
They wanted to prepare gifts for the guests too.
And because they were curious, they stalked Landon everywhere.
"Do you think that they will like this?
You said that there’s a 16-year-old princess amongst them.
So what do you think?
Can’t you tell mother what you think?"
"Brother Landon, why are you so stingy with information?
Why can’t you tell me how they look?
Won’t I eventually see it?
Brother Landon, this isn’t a movie.
So what do you mean by spoilers?"
(:T?T:)
.
Just Landon spent his time hiding from his family helplessly.
And soon, 2 days flew by in a sh.
Today was the day!
