Eric, realizing that she was running out of strength, felt a tinge of guilt. We didn't know you were coming. Had we known in advance, we would surely have found a way to clear a path first, making it easier for you to traverse. But Miss Rowland, don't worry. This road is only in such a state on rainy days. It's usually not like this."

"It doesn't matter. Just keep going Thea gritted her teeth and pressed on, while beginning to mull things over in her mind.

This company was called Sparkle Rocks. It mainly dealt with the production of jadeite and jade, and occasionally supplied raw stones to those stone gambling dens.

Thea had visited the other factories. Most of them were closer to the urban area, but this particular factory was surprisingly

remote.

However, it was said to be the factory with the finest quality of raw stones.

Grandpa had merely mentioned it briefly in his letter, suggesting that she consider shutting down the factory.

Although the quality of the raw stone mine was good, the transportation was inconvenient, resulting in a low output. Moreover, the quality of the stones from this mine was often inconsistent, so it had always been operating at a loss. Grandpa had intended to package it up and sell it to others, but due to his continuous poor health, this plan was put on hold.

Nevertheless, Thea was not one to give up easily.

Since there was such a fine mine, it ought to be put to good use.

If the inconvenient transportation precluded mass production, then a brand of its own could be created, focusing on high quality rather than quantity. After all, rarity adds value.

But that was just her rosy vision. To truly understand the situation, she still needed to go and have a closer look.

In fact, it was just over a kilometer in a straight line, yet it took Thea half an hour to walk.

Upon arriving at the destination, she simply plopped down on the bench in the courtyard, no longer caring about her appearance at this moment.

During the journey, she had gained a much deeper understanding of the inconvenient transportation.
