The Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 117 Dad, Let’s Go Borrow Money

One word is miserable.

Luther and Pompeii were probably the poorest travelers.

But Luther didn't feel ashamed, because the more he spent, the more he would earn.

A good lord who doesn't know how to spend money is definitely not a good lord.

This time Luther wants to play a big game, defeat the Autumn Wind Thieves Group and open the treasure chest. Either lose blood or make a fortune.

But it doesn’t matter whether you make a profit or a loss.

Both the Pompeii family can gain prestige.

After learning about the Pompeii family's business in detail and learning that it was all for small amounts of money, Luther was no longer interested and would just do whatever he wanted.

Of course, you can't say that, but Luther thanked his mother and the old housekeeper for running the Pompeii family's business.

There is no need for the family to be too polite, just be just right.

Anyway, Mrs. Sophie and the old housekeeper left happily.

"By the way Luther, do you really not want to eat World of Warcraft meat? Your father has been very free recently, so he went to hunt some for you." Before Mrs. Sophie left, she still thought of Luther's recent lack of enough food and kept thinking about it. .

"Dad, have you been busy recently?" Luther's eyes lit up.

"It's very free. I either do knight training every day, or sleep and eat." Mrs. Sophie nodded affirmatively. In fact, she was paying close attention.

Ever since she found out about Old Sol's affair with the maid, she had been staring at Old Sol and not giving him a chance.

Poor old Saul.

Luther didn't know this. He was happy knowing that his father was free. Because Luther's backup plan has something to do with his father.

So after saying goodbye to Mrs. Sophie and Butler Feren, Luther went to ask the maids again and found Old Sol in the study.

Dad looked really idle. He was holding a kettle and watering a pot of flowers and plants placed by the window.

"Dad, please give up your face and lend money to the Pompeii family again." After Luther entered the study, he made a snap, bent down and lowered his head to request.

"What?" Old Sol's hand trembled, and he lit the watering can and dropped it. Borrowing money is an unbearable memory.

Although the six major families have a harmonious relationship with each other, the last time Old Sol went to borrow money, he readily borrowed gold coins to help the Pompeii family tide over the difficulties.

But Old Sol definitely doesn't want to go there again, it's too shameful.

But when Old Sol thought about it, the Pompeii family was currently developing at a rapid pace. Under the management of this outstanding son, the Pompeii family might become a baron.

He immediately lost his sense of shame, gritted his teeth and put the kettle on the floor, then sat down with a big smile and asked: "Tell me, how much does it cost this time?"

"One hundred thousand gold coins." Luther said honestly. He was really honest.

"...!" Old Sol was speechless, because this number exceeded his ability to bear. How much did the Pompeii family pay each year in taxes? Probably more than nine hundred and less than one thousand.

In other words, the Pompeii family might not have been able to get 10,000 gold coins in the past ten years, but now Luther asked for 100,000 gold coins. In the past, it would have taken the Pompeii family a hundred years to come up with it.

And still not eating or drinking.

Old Sol thought that his nerves had become very thick under the training of this outstanding son in front of him.

God knows, he used to be a suave and good nobleman who enjoyed life. Although the family's income is not very good, he still uses the limited funds to have fun and has many mistresses.

But now when I open my mouth, it’s the special code of 100,000.

Old Sol wanted to curse.

Old Sol took a deep breath, then another. After three times in total, Old Sol asked expressionlessly: "One hundred thousand gold coins? Luther, what do you want to do?"

At this time, Old Saul seemed to have returned to the style he had when Luther first traveled through time, old-fashioned and majestic.

A very typical image of a strict father.

However, Luther was not Wu Xia Amon at this time. He stiffened his neck and said: "I will spend one hundred thousand gold coins to invite mercenaries to destroy the Qiufeng bandits."

Old Sol was stunned for a moment, and then touched his chin. He had a bit of a stubble. After touching for a while, Old Sol asked: "Do you want to increase your family's reputation?"

"The family needs to remove Omima's head to increase its prestige." Luther nodded.

Old Saul didn't ask any questions this time. He was a qualified politician. He was more familiar with some things than Luther about the situation in Orange and Barton.

Naturally, he knows the current embarrassment of the Pompeii family and how to get rid of it.

"Luther, please prepare. We will set off to meet our master, Baron Barton, in three days." Old Sol said solemnly.

Because in the entire Barton territory, only Baron Barton could afford one hundred thousand gold coins.

And even if Baron Barton can get it, one hundred thousand gold coins will empty out the baron's wallet. Whether he can lend it out depends on the face of an old face.

Old Saul was the man with such a face.

This dad is very reliable.

"Okay." Luther breathed out and showed a bright smile.

After getting his father's promise, Luther left with a very happy mood.

It's good to have a reliable dad.

By the way, since I am setting off to meet Baron Barton in three days, if I obtain one hundred thousand gold coins, I should go to the Golden City and hire a reliable mercenary group.

I'm afraid it will take several months to go there. Think about what else is going on in the territory and settle in.

But after Luther thought about it, he thought of someone. Because currently there is no recruitment of residents in the territory, development has encountered a bottleneck.

No big deal.

town Hall.

Great Knight.

Lady Sophie.

They manage the territory, military strength, and business respectively, so there is nothing to worry about. The only thing Luther had to worry about was the people around him.

For example, there are big and small Lolita, little Maya and Lily.

Another example is Xiu Xiuya.

Luther decided to take a look at Xiu Xiuya's current situation, because after Luther returned from the forest, he was eager to go to Kaiyue City to see Miss Ruth, and he was depressed for several days after returning.

I have never seen Xiu Xiuya.

As Luther's personal knight, the next generation knight of the Iron Horse family, and possessing an extremely excellent talent for thunder fighting spirit, Xiu Xiuya's importance is self-evident.

If Luther becomes Earl Luther in the future and owns a large territory, then Shushua will be Luther's ribs, an important bone wrapped around the heart.

So whether it was from a personal relationship or from a future perspective, Luther truly cared about Xiu Xiuya.

So Luther came to a school grounds outside the castle, found Knight Magellan, and asked about Shushua's current situation.

Perhaps it was the reason why the secret of training Thunder Dou Qi was kept secret for the time being due to the last agreement with Luther.

Xiu Xiu Ya built a villa in a remote place among the twenty strongholds in Pompeii, and Xiu Xiu Ya is currently staying there.
