Empires Start with Lords
Chapter 55: : Homecoming
In response, Ross didn't show any cowardly expression at all, just raised his head slightly and said, "I didn't say I was a noble."
"Also, please help me exchange this check for 100,000 gold coins."
Ross took out a check with a duke's name on it, which was the amount Jenny paid to Ross just now.
Seeing such a large gold cheque again, the woman's attitude was obviously much more ordinary, and she didn't mean to post Ross any more.
After all, Ross said he was just a servant, so women would only be interested in the characters behind Ross, not a scoundrel.
but……
How to figure out who the big man behind him is from Ross's mouth, the woman thought a little incomprehensibly.
At this time, a figure came from behind. It was a very handsome man who was dressed very well and looked handsome. Although his appearance was far inferior to the Ross in front of him, the woman could see that this man was wearing an expensive knight's uniform. Even in the vicinity of Philadelphia is extremely difficult to find, at least a noble.
"Mr. Knight, what's the matter with you?"
The holy knight didn't even look at her, and humbly and respectfully said to Ross: "Lord Lord, we have sent the six men in black to Duke Webb's castle according to your instructions. Duke Webb was very good at first. I'm afraid, but I said, according to your will, Duke Webb accepted this group of people in black to be tried by him again."
"Also, Duke Webb also said that everything will be handled in accordance with the laws of the kingdom and Philadelphia, and if nothing else, he will be imprisoned in a dark and damp dungeon for three years..."
When Ross heard this, he just nodded slightly.
That being the case, even if Duke Webb did not dare to provoke the royal family, at least at this moment, Webb chose Rose's side.
Ross smiled slightly.
His conjecture was successful.
The next moment, the woman who looked down on Rose just now opened her mouth as if she could swallow a whole piece of egg.
"Lord... You are the lord? Why are you dressed like this?"
Ross was helpless, slandered in his heart, and I didn't want to be high-profile, but my strength didn't allow it.
"Ma'am, I think your business ability is a bit low, can you help me exchange first..."
"Okay, okay."
As a result, after getting 100,000 gold coins and five bags of gold coins with a denomination of 100 gold coins, Ross left here with several holy knights carrying a heavy bag of gold coins.
The woman looked at Rose's back, and felt extremely regretful in her heart...
Because if she can be listed as a noble of the level of Ross, I am afraid that she will be completely rewritten in the rest of her life.
What's more, Rose's appearance is also very in line with her mate-seeking standards.
"Hey……"
After the woman sighed for a moment, she turned around and went to entertain the next fat-headed noble customer.
Seeing this man's greasy appearance, the woman felt disgusted in her heart, but she said in a very sweet and slightly seductive tone: "Dear gentleman, can you tell me your address..."
……
Afterwards, Ross took that beautiful and surprisingly beautiful woman, Miss Jenny, on the way back without hesitation.
Jenny was immersed in the grief of losing her biggest fortune, but she didn't dare to have any objection to Ross.
In case this guy abandons her in the wilderness where the orcs are frequent, she may be deeply harassed by the orcs in turn, like some women scattered in the small town.
If such a thing really happened, Jenny believed that she would never be associated with the word happiness in her whole life.
Ross didn't know what was going on with the surprisingly delicate makeup next to him, but what was Miss Jenny, whose vest soaked in sweat after the operation just now, was thinking. At this moment, Ross was still thinking about the woman who looked down on people just now. She was very suitable for Ross's last life. Be a kiln in the world.
After all, Ross doesn't like to eat chickens, and he doesn't like being eaten by chickens as bugs.
Now Ross is thinking to himself, he doesn't know what's going on in the palace.
It stands to reason that a few days have passed, and there should be news from the old housekeeper.
If the palace is willing to provide Ross with gunpowder, Ross will immediately buy blueprints to make a brand new set of artillery.
Unfortunately, it is impossible for Ross to do all this with his current finances.
Although his income has increased by five times compared to two months ago, he also needs to spend a lot of money for things such as city defense and supporting a large number of public servants.
On the whole, if there is no war, Ross can have a liquidity of about 200,000 gold coins a month.
However, in order to make money, Ross is already playing a big game.
The opponents on the chessboard are the royal family and the eldest prince.
Since the eldest prince wants to support Webb and vigorously suppress another duke, in order to maintain the eldest prince's status in East Ayr Province.
As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and the current Dukes of Ross and Rusgol are potential allies with common interests and enemies.
However, as far as he knows, Duke Rusgol has a very weird temperament~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is suitable for fighting alone. Although he has a very high talent as a lord, he has not been able to surpass Webb's status for so many years.
Therefore, Ross plans to recruit Webb under his command first, and then he will be recruited into his command after defeating Rusgor.
In this way, after Ross successfully implemented the subsequent actions, he was able to successfully become a dominant force in East Ayr Province, and then had partial command in the western region of Akram Kingdom.
The next step is to recruit troops and buy horses to vigorously support the new army, and then wait for the eldest prince in the royal family to take the throne and wait for the eldest prince to wait and send troops to himself.
Now, it's time for Ross to do something.
The first thing Ross has to do now is to complete the production of the first steam engine, and then mass-produce artillery, an extremely lethal weapon.
Afterwards, the first firepower weapon that was no less powerful than the Holy Knights was formed.
However, a common disadvantage of these weapons is that they consume a lot of gunpowder.
According to the pricing of the current system, Ross can't even afford a tenth.
Therefore, if it is not for the face of powerful enemies, Ross still does not plan to build these weapons in the first place.
Now, what Ross desperately needs is not military, but cooperation with the duke.
Only by cooperating with the duke can we maintain the economic scale and momentum of Ross in a real sense.
But I am afraid that after the eldest prince takes the throne, he will send troops to himself on a large scale.
And Ross is still farming...
Ross shook his head. What he wanted was not only to become stronger, but also in the shortest possible time. Therefore, it is best to cooperate with a duke whose power scale is second only to the royal family.
