Chapter 242
As soon as he left the spaceport, the tepid air unique to Armstrong city swamped him. Sungyoon frowned a little bit as he sniffed to clear his nose.
On Earth, he had to be on standby in his house for his shift. It was boring, but he preferred it to being in Armstrong city.
However, he soon became used to the recycled air. It had been a while since he saw the streets of Armstrong city. As he walked the streets, he realized that Armstrong city was still the same. Even though the city had been facing a crisis, people still coveted the moonstones, and with the fall of the other Lunar city, Armstrong had recovered much of their standing in the world.
Sungyoon's feet came to a stop in front of a particular five-story building. The first floor was a pub, and the other floors had various shops designed to prey on the money of Connectors. Sungyoon owned this building.
Considering the crazy cost of living in Armstrong city, he was receiving an astronomical sum of money for rent from the stores: a couple hundred thousand dollars from each store for one month. It made him understand why Armstrong was so resistant in giving away properties to Connectors.
However, the higher-ups of Armstrong city no longer hoarded the real estate market.
‘This is my building…. ’
An odd light flashed in Sungyoon’s eyes as he looked up at the building.
Despite the outrageous rent, the number of store owners that wanted to rent the space in his building was enough to form lines. This wasn’t the only building Armstrong had given to Sungyoon. Even if Sungyoon stopped acquiring moonstones, he would be able to amass an enormous fortune over time with the rent from his buildings all over the city.
