Chapter 11 The Bishop’s Thoughts
Ryan was very perceptive, and he immediately saw that Sirius did not appear happy after hearing that he had bought such a big house, but was rather dissatisfied.
At this moment, he also suddenly realized that he seemed to have done something wrong.
yes! Who is the second prince? He is a hero who came here as a civilian to fight against foreign enemies with everyone in Anka!
Is he here to enjoy this?
From what the second prince said just now, you can tell that the reason he gave you 800 gold coins was because in his impression, money was spent in this way, rather than because he knew that prices here are low, so he spent so much money here.
But what did he do? He completely lived up to what the second prince had said before.
"I'm sorry... Sir Sirius, I didn't take into account what you said before..."
"Forget it."
Sirius sighed, shook his head and said, "The manor is just a manor, but 50 silver coins a month is too much." Less, all the servants are mentioned as a monthly salary of 1 gold coin."
This was also a helpless move for him, because one day the thoughtful Liz knew that all the servants in his family were paid a monthly salary of 50 silver coins. , only she has 1 gold coin, then she will definitely become suspicious.
As for why he said he wanted to hire her for 1 gold coin this afternoon and she didn't object...
Haha, Liz probably regarded him as a scapegoat who didn't understand prices, right?
"Okay, Lord Sirius."
"Also, I went to the civilian area this afternoon. There was a very poor family. I saw that the child had a gentle personality and was very organized. He also had some talent for magic, so I took her She also hired me as a maid. She
originally thought that 800 gold coins couldn't buy a big house, so she asked her father to come over and sleep with you. But now you don't have to worry about that.
I don't know much about the maid's job. I think you You can handle things very quickly. From now on, you will be the housekeeper of this family, and you will be able to arrange their work."
"Yes."
Li An nodded respectfully, feeling not only grateful for Sirius's generosity, but also for his generosity. I also lamented that only people like the second prince were truly suitable to lead the Xilin Empire.
However, this idea is really dangerous. After all, before he left the imperial city, the most popular successor among the people had always been the eldest prince.
But after careful comparison, he felt that although people like the eldest prince were very good, they always seemed too far away from common people like them.
Although this was the case for nobles, and it was impossible for a member of the royal family to care about the daily life of an ordinary civilian, everything in front of him made him feel that this situation was not impossible.
Being able to take the initiative to check out the situation in the slums, and then choose to increase the income of all the servants after knowing that prices here are low, is a simple way to show a bit of goodwill.
Even if it is pretended and deliberately displayed hypocrisy, it is better than not asking anything at all.

"Alice, I asked you to go outside today to investigate the matter of gold coins. Did you find anything?"
In the inner hall of the church, the bishop looked at Sister Alice below with a smile and spoke slowly. asked.
Regarding this problem, it is obvious that Alice did not gain anything after working outside for a day.
She herself is the kind of person with a soft and soft personality. Although she is wearing a holy white nun's uniform and the pure white stockings on her lower body fit her slender legs delicately and softly, in the eyes of outsiders she does not It doesn't look like a clergyman at all, but it looks like a little girl stealing an adult's clothes. Of course, this does not mean that Alice is short, it is simply that her temperament makes her feel weak and helpless in front of anyone.
Perhaps considering this issue, the bishop also sighed helplessly.
"Alice... you should change your character. If every believer who is willing to come to the church to pray devoutly sees that our nuns are as timid and fearful as you, then... forget it, this can't be entirely your fault. "
My Lord Bishop, I'm sorry."
Alice's eyes were slightly red, and her soft and helpless look made the gray-haired old bishop a little unbearable.
"It's okay. In fact, I didn't expect you to be able to find out the truth of this matter."
Since there were 500,000 gold coins in their church's warehouse that night, the bishop specially hired someone to check the warehouse every night. Is there anything strange?
But no matter what happens next, everything that has happened now is too strange.
The first person who can achieve this effect can at least be made by the purple-robed royal magician who has mastered space magic.
But when did such people come to border cities like Anka, and why did they throw so many gold coins at them? What the purpose is, no one knows.
If he wanted to help them fight against Count Luther, why didn't he show up for so long?
In short, until all this is clarified, the bishop does not dare to use any of the money.
"In the past few days, we have been to the city in the name of missionary and have asked everywhere. We have not heard that any important figures from the royal family have been here.
In other words, the person who placed these gold coins here is most likely to have come secretly. We got here."
"But Lord Bishop... the people here are not happy, and wars often break out. Why would such a big shot come here? I don't understand."
Alice frowned, in her understanding I couldn't find the reason why the royal family member I had never met came here.
"Yes, this is not a good place."
Lizardmen soldiers have higher night combat capabilities and survival adaptability than humans. If the terrain of Anka City was not easy to defend and difficult to attack, it would be difficult for the lizards to completely break through Human defense line, but there is nothing the humans can do against the lizard species.
The wars that broke out from time to time caused all the people here to leave, and the remaining people had no hope for Anka's future.
Of course, those who are still fighting on the front line are worthy of admiration. After all, when the bishop passed the queue of those guards, he saw the perseverance in their eyes that never flinched.
It's a pity... Anka has found such a useless lord.
But to be honest, the relationship between the church and the royal family has never been very good in the Xilin Empire. The pope of the Church of Light has never given up fighting for the right to speak politically, although there has generally been no open discussion in recent years. It's a contradiction, but both parties actually know it.
Wait...
If that's what he said, the bishop suddenly understood the meaning of the royal person who sponsored them.
This is most likely because they want to cleanse the bad apples among the secular nobles, but it is not convenient to take action proactively, so they use the hands of their church to accomplish this!
Those royal gold coins and space transfer magic are to point this out to them, telling them that they can launch a struggle for power against secular nobles in this border area without worrying about any consequences!
Okay, okay, if that's the case, then he doesn't have to worry about it anymore...
Son of a bitch Luther, wait for the guillotine!
