and so, the town becoming peaceful with the help of Dave. the town now having progress with Jimmy manage to make a street of shop without any extra payment. now Matt can hire the groceries, barber, tailor and the boatmen. now he has only 20 gold. he just pray that the crops can be harvested and the town can get money from it.

another month has passed, and the crops are harvested. the harvesting crop are twice the amount than he expected. he was really happy, now he can feed his townspeople and sold the crop to the city. the amount of money obtained must be more than 1000 gold. and just as he tough, he gain 1000 gold back. and then, he ask jimmy to build a bigger  ship deck.
the next season also coming, and this time the crops multiplied, he need to enlarge the town, and he ask Jimmy again.
"what? again? that's it!"

"ji..jimmy?"
"okay, i'm move to your town."

"seriously?"
"yeah, beside, this is much better than living in this city. the tax, the cost living, i don't think anyone would live in this place."

and just as Jimmy says, the Ghost Town becoming well known around the city and many people began to move from city to the Ghost town.
and, by that time, the mayor of the city
