"Bruce, watch over the level of the ground in the area we have already cleared. Make sure that it is suitable for further construction since I can\'t check it from here. So, help me keep an eye on the process."

Although this was originally a job for an engineer, Zach had to make do with Bruce who had life experience and was able to understand the nature of the task assigned to him quite easily. Even if Bruce didn\'t understand the method, Zach could guide him through the intercom. Therefore, he sent Bruce without hesitation and the latter didn\'t hesitate to take on the task. Bruce also knew that Zach was there to guide him through his job. His trust in Zach was already absolute.

Bruce and Diana set out to follow their orders immediately. They were both quite efficient.

There was a map of Greenland towards his right side. He was using it to direct the efforts of the people. There were the blueprints of the manor he wanted to build towards his left. So far, he had been guiding the efforts of his people in line with the construction blueprints.

"Hey! What are you doing? You there…you without the helmet; I am talking to you. Do you think you are invincible and would remain sturdy if a hundred kilogram stone fell on top of your head? Or are you a daredevil who likes to live an adventurous life unafraid of death?"

Since Zach was talking on the intercom, everyone was able to hear him and those not wearing their helmets were immediately alerted. They believed that Zach could see them shirking the safety measures he ordered them to adhere to.

Even though the helmet was for their own safety, the servants weren\'t used to the extra weight on their heads. It made them feel uncomfortable and even got in the way of their work. Therefore, they preferred to take it off while they worked.

Zach had grown to understand this tendency since the servants had never been concerned of their safety before. So, from time to time, he would throw a series of insults into the intercom so that they would behave themselves and take proper safety precautions as they worked.

"Whether you are a daredevil or not, as someone who has the guts to ignore my orders, listen carefully. I don\'t need people who can\'t follow orders even if they are a hundred times more efficient than their counterparts. If you can\'t follow simple commands then I can\'t trust you with the lives of your colleagues. You will only be a danger to them as long as you don\'t let go of these habits and I won\'t have meaningless and pointless deaths on my conscience. So behave yourself or get out of here."

The servants hurriedly complied with the instructions and wore their safety helmets immediately after the announcement on intercom.

Zach nodded to himself and turned his attention towards the wild periphery. From time to time, he was able to witness the flash of guns from amidst the dark wilderness. He knew that it was the result of his soldiers exterminating the beasts on the island. This was the advance team responsible for the clearing of the island. Following right after them at the edge of the wilderness were the deforestation team with their chainsaws running wild.

Zach used his binoculars to carefully evaluate the way these people were using the chainsaws. Even though, the chainsaw was especially useful in mowing down trees, it was equally dangerous as well. It wasn\'t for nothing that the chainsaws were an essential part of the most horrifying slasher movies from his past world.

"Be careful while operating your chainsaws. A slight mistake can lead to insufferable consequences. Take your safety and those of around you as the topmost priority. Remember your training and don\'t be in a hurry. We can still afford to take our time."

Zach continued to announce safety precautions to the people so as to avoid any injuries. He knew that it was impossible to eliminate any incident considering it was their first time operating these machines. But he wanted to minimize the losses as much as possible.

"Deforestation team; please cut the trees in a slanted manner so as to make the tree fall in the direction that is away from your colleagues."

Despite all the safety precautions, Zach couldn\'t help but sigh as he heard of an incident over the intercom. Apparently someone had ended up getting a cut on their finger from improper operation of the chainsaw. 

"A thirty five year old male has been injured. He has a severe cut on his finger, probably from the chainsaw. He is bleeding profusely and the current location is the zone A of the deforestation team. Please send the healers as soon as possible."

Zach immediately got up from his seat and rushed in the approximate direction announced on the intercom as he passed on the instructions through the intercom to the nearby healers to reach the location of the patient as soon as possible.

"Cover the cut on his finger and apply a little pressure to keep the blood from flowing out. Wait for the healers or me to arrive. We are on our way."

Thankfully, he had already included this type of emergency announcement in their safety training so everyone knew what to do when an incident like this took place on the construction site.

By the time Zach reached the location of the patient, the healers had already arrived. They were trying their best to mend the separated flesh but it was proving too much for them. More than seventy percent of the finger was cut off by the chainsaw and was hanging along the finger through the remaining mass. It took all they could do to barely connect the almost separated pieces of flesh.

"We have already sown the finger together but it will take quite some time to heal. He will have to visit the healers on a daily basis to receive treatment and the pain wouldn\'t subside until the inside of his finger is healed as well."

Zach understood that there were certain limitations of the healers as well. Even though the smith family had some healers, they weren\'t as outstanding in terms of capability and their rank. Therefore, healing injuries like these was not easy for them.

He pulled out the AI Medical system and gave the patient a dose of painkiller for the time being. He additionally handed out some anti-inflammatory drugs and some antibiotic drugs for him to take on a regular basis. Other than that he gave him some painkillers for whenever the pain became too much to handle.

"You have worked hard to build our home. It is time you take some rest. Let your fellows take over your task for the time being until you are all healed."

Zach patted the patient who was now feeling relief from the pain after the painkiller injection. He intended to encourage him but the latter in no way looked demoralized. Instead he was eager to return to work but Zach forbade him from doing so on the plea that the relief from pain was only temporary.

Just as Zach was about to return to his position to oversee the construction work, his gaze landed on a certain plant amidst the wilderness. Thankfully, no one had taken it down already or Zach would not have been able to confirm the existence of the plant by himself.

It was none other than a sugar cane from the looks of it. But Zach still needed to confirm it. There were too many familiar things that turned out to be strange in this world.

As he got closer, he inhaled the sweet scent emanating from the plant and his suspicion strengthened. He believed that it was definitely sugarcane.

Zach could no longer contain the excitement bursting out of him. This discovery had opened up new prospects for him and the people of this world.

Now that Zach was sure that sugarcanes existed in this world as well. A business model began to take shape in his mind. The business proposal consisted of locating and farming sugarcane to develop sucrose. After so many years of using mild sweetening agents like honey which common folk could barely afford, sucrose would definitely turn the market upside down. The word \'dessert\' would change its meaning after the arrival of sucrose in the markets. There were so many recipes he knew of that made use of sucrose as the basic ingredient. Most of those things were especially liked by the masses and could bring in a great amount of revenue. Based on those facts, it wouldn\'t be long before sugar would become a necessity in every household common or elite.

Putting all that aside, the greatest benefit it offered to Zach was that he could drink his favorite coffee again. He wouldn\'t have to stick to the weird tastes of the people of this world.
