"Before we get down to business, why don't you try on the clothes first? I made one for you yesterday."
"Is there a share for me? Then I'll change it first."
Since revealing her true identity, Xia Ye no longer deliberately uses humble titles, which makes her, who is expressionless most of the time, a little more intimate.
After the three returned to the study, Aarons immediately got his own clothes - this is a long coat similar to a windbreaker, the style is very similar to those in the previous life, but the surface decoration and details are in the style of the empire.
"Oh, the fabric feels really good."
"Please try it first."
- After putting on this new clothes, Aarons' temperament improved a lot.
Originally, his appearance was the type that was unremarkable at first glance, but the more you look at it, the more you can feel the charm. After putting on this low-key but luxurious clothes, people feel more like a handsome and melancholy nobleman.
Although she didn't know what outsiders would think, after seeing the current Aarons, Karin's cheeks not only flushed, her ears trembled, but even her tail began to wag excitedly.
"In general, I referred to the style in your memory and added some traditional elements of the empire. The decoration above imitated the aristocratic style I had seen before, and..."
When talking about her personal hobbies, Xia Ye's tone became obviously more high-spirited. In order to show respect, Aarons did not interrupt her explanation.
After carefully looking at his current appearance in front of the mirror in the study, Aarons silently thanked the unlucky young master in his heart.
- Although there is almost nothing good about other places, the unlucky guy still looks pretty good.
"… Sorry, I said too much. Are you satisfied with this dress?"
"Of course, I feel like I can wear it as my formal dress."
"I also used weaving magic to add several layers of protection inside. This dress should be able to resist one or two attacks from level three fighting spirit or magic for you."
Although Xia Ye only knows this one magic, her uses and functions are unexpectedly many - Aarons even feels that she can use this magic to create something that does not exist in this world.
"Excuse me, I don't need to pay extra for this dress, right?"
"Protecting your safety is also one of the contents of my work in the Marquis's house, so this is already included in the monthly salary. You only have to pay extra when you order me for your own private affairs, so please don't worry too much."
"How can I not worry? It is directly related to my physical and mental health."
Even if this young body is quite eager for close contact with the opposite sex, Aarons still dare not give himself up easily.
"If you don't have confidence in yourself, you can also find an opportunity to practice with Miss Karin first."
"Hmm? Eh? I, I, I, I, you want to practice with me? No... no problem!"
"Okay, can we talk business first!"
People in this world don't seem to be reserved about that kind of thing - this makes Aarons, who is actually a middle-aged uncle in his mind, feel a little embarrassed.
"It will take about twenty days before I am summoned by the emperor, and I must make some achievements during this time, at least to keep control of this city and several nearby towns."
As Aarons spoke, he took out the map of the Marquisate he had obtained before. Xia Ye and Karin also immediately walked to the desk and carefully observed the various details on the map.
"The city hall of this Moti city will remain neutral on the surface, but if I can keep the territory, they will turn to support me. But other places have now entered a state of de facto independence and will definitely not pay attention to my orders."
Aarons drew a circle on the map with his hand, marking the territory that is now friendly to him.
However, Xia Ye immediately pointed to a place outside the circle, diverting Aarons' attention there.
"Do you know anything about this magic source stone mine, young master?"
"Well... the information given to me by the city office said that this mine can still produce about three tons of magic source stones every month. According to the current price, it has a net profit of about fifteen gold coins per month."
- The measurement units in this world are not much different from those in Aarons' previous life. Although there are some differences in the official names, the abbreviations are the same, which makes it much easier for Aarons to speak.
"This place is not far from your current sphere of influence. You should give priority to regaining control of this mine."
"Well... but if you want them to hand over the profits to me obediently, you must ensure that they will listen to me... In simple terms, they need to be defeatedOnly then it will work."
Even if Aarons took the initiative to run over and claim his ownership of the mine, those people would most likely ignore a useless person who has no power at all.
So if you want them to obey, you still have to use the most primitive method.
"You now have more than 100 gold coins in your hands. You can go out and temporarily recruit a mercenary group to help you deal with this problem. It's not too late to hire new security and management personnel after you get control of the mine."
"It's really a good idea... Karin, do you have any suggestions?"
"I know more about the mercenary group. I can help you handle the entire hiring process, and I can also check the qualifications and reputation."
Although some mercenaries with bad conduct do have the risk of betraying their employers, most mercenaries only take money to do things. The longer their qualifications, the less likely they will joke about their reputation.
"Very good, then follow this plan to take back control of the mine first. Then Karin and Xia Ye, the matter of recruiting mercenaries will be left to you to handle, no problem, right? "
"Please rest assured, we will complete this task within three days."
After finally having the look of a boss again, Aarons regained a lot of confidence.
Although Karin could not fully exert her strength and Xia Ye was a dangerous time bomb, they were the only subordinates Aarons could rely on now.
-How to control employees with personality is also one of the challenges Aarons liked in his previous life.
"I will study the specific process again, and you two can go and do your own things first."
"Then Master, we will take our leave first."
Watching the two foreign beauties bow to him and leave the room, Aarons finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If he always had to stay in the same room with these two charming beauties, he would not have the confidence to suppress his desire for a long time.
...
And the two women who walked out of the Marquis' study together were also talking about Aarons.
"It's not that I can't trust you, Miss Xia Ye...but I still can't easily accept what you said last night. "
"If I wasn't a demon from another world, I wouldn't be able to accept it."
After hearing her colleague's doubts, the expressionless Aries Witch pushed her glasses again.
"But since the young master has shown me so many interesting things, it would be against my principles if I can't repay him well."
