Chapter 101:
The female magician began to do research seriously and became the indifferent woman again.
As a son, Leonard is already used to strange things.
Even if her father comes, she will always be like this.
Hardy walked out and Leonard followed closely.
After walking for a while, Leonard said: "You, the Jeanne family, have made a lot of money this time, at least enough to last for a hundred years."
Hardy smiled: "If you hadn't been greedy and designed a trap first, how could this have happened? That's it."
"It's none of my business." Leonard shrugged: "Although I know the information, I don't have the right to make decisions. I even have to speak softly to avoid being scolded for being ignorant."
Hardy couldn't help laughing. got up.
It really feels like a feudal class.
"I heard that you won the city of Huluoka, or are you a viscount?" Leonard asked again.
Hardy nodded.
"How about you recruit me as a vassal?"
Hardy was quite surprised. He turned to look at Leonard: "I'm just a viscount, and I can only be made a knight." "
I know. That's why I came to you. I don't even have the status of a knight."
Don't even have the status of a knight?
Hardy turned to look at him: "Theoretically, you should be considered a prince." "
What's the use of having an empty title. Counting illegitimate children, my father has eight sons and ten daughters, and the fiefs and titles are not enough. ." Leonard sighed: "And I only have a small manor, no output, no army, a few gold coins every month, and my life is worse than that of a wealthy businessman." It
sounded very miserable.
But in fact, this kind of life is already at the top of the pyramid.
Although he has less money, depending on who he compares with, there are not many people in the world who can have a better quality of life than him.
He has no army, but under normal circumstances, who dares to bully him is a prince!
The family also provides food and drink, and every month I get a few gold coins for free without having to work, and there are servants to wait on me. What an enjoyable life.
Hardy only heard someone moaning for no reason.
He ignored Leonard's complaints and refused directly: "I can't recruit a former enemy to be my subordinate, otherwise I won't even know what happened when I die." "Don't say that
. ." Leonard followed up and said with a playful smile: "Since I want to be your knight, I will naturally swear to be loyal to you."
"Let's not talk about this matter." Hardy waved his hand and said: "I even know that I am loyal to you. It's useless if I dare to recruit you. I have to take into account the Jeanna family's opinion of you, understand?"
Leonard sighed: "That's true, it's a pity. I think following you will have a better future."
In fact, nobles often 'mix' with each other. As long as there is no hatred of life and death, it is very common for non-heirs of one family to become vassals of another family.
Hardy just smiled at Leonard's flattery.
He was considered an 'outsider'. He had just obtained the 'fiefdom' of the Jeanne family and had not yet taken office when Leonard came to visit.
It is said that he wants to become a vassal, but it is difficult to say whether he actually wants to press a 'nail' in Hukaro City.
Hadi felt that if he really wanted to recruit the descendants of other nobles as vassals, he would have to wait until he had truly established a foothold in Hukaro City.
Now that the territory has not been truly accepted, it is still too early to recruit knights and vassals.
The two separated at the door, and Hardy went to Princes' estate.
Because she is dead, the manor is now in the process of changing hands.
Servants were kicked out in batches, and a lot of sundries and personal clothing were thrown out.
After all, this world is a bit particular about bad luck.
However, the nobles dislike it, but the poor people do not dislike it.
As soon as those personal belongings were thrown out, they were swarmed by servants or civilians waiting nearby and snatched away. For nobles, these small things are small money, but for ordinary people, these small items can not only be used by themselves, but can also be sold for half a month or a month's household expenses.
Hardy appeared in front of the manor, and the surrounding servants and civilians subconsciously stayed away.
No ordinary person wants to get too close to aristocratic young people, they are an occasional source of harm.
Hardy looked at the door for a while, and soon a man who looked like a butler came out.
This is not Prince's butler.
When he saw Hardy, he asked respectfully: "Excuse me, your Excellency, do you want to visit Ms. Heather Eckerd?" "
No, I just came to see some of my friend's relics." Hardy thought about it. He thought and said, "My name is Hardy, and I am a good friend with the former owner of this manor, Princes."
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered who the person in front of him was.
Although he has never seen it, he can hear this name from the mouths of important people from time to time.
"Sir Hardy, it's a great honor to meet you. If you want to visit this manor, please allow me to leave for a while and ask Ms. Quilli Eckerd." "
It doesn't have to be so troublesome." Hardy pointed to many places. The boxes and bookshelf that were thrown out: "Don't you want those things?" The
middle-aged housekeeper looked at where Hardy pointed and showed an embarrassed look: "Those are the things the master asked to throw away. They are not worth it." What kind of money?"
"But those were Prince's favorite books during her lifetime. Wouldn't it be a good idea to throw them away like this?"
The housekeeper laughed even more awkwardly.
It was indeed wrong to throw away his friend's things like garbage in front of a noble.
Hardy sighed and said, "How about this? I buy these things, okay?" "
I have to inform the owner about this."
"No problem."
The housekeeper immediately went upstairs.
Then it quickly came down again.
"The master agrees, but you need to pay a small price. After all, this is the thing of the master's sister, and she has the best relationship with her sister."
Best?
If it was really the best sisterly relationship, would you throw away these books that Princes regarded as your life?
"Fifty gold coins?" Hardy asked.
The butler rubbed his hands and said carefully: "This does not meet the master's expectations."
"One hundred." Hardy thought for a while and said: "Although Princes is indeed my good friend, I don't think it will exceed this number. It’s not worth it anymore.”
“Thank you for your generosity.” The butler smiled happily.
"Then wait." Hardy spoke and turned to leave: "I will go back and bring some people to help move things."
Then more than half an hour later, more than a hundred soldiers came.
All of them were so murderous that they almost scared the housekeeper to the point of peeing.
A heavy small box was placed on the ground. Hardy looked at the books piled up like a mountain in the manor, feeling quite heartbroken.
These are the crystallization of human civilization.
It's just that he can't show too many emotions, lest he be charged more by the owner here.
Soon, more than a hundred people emptied the mountain of books and moved them back to Jeanne's manor.
Because there were so many books, even Madam Sissi and the others stopped what they were doing and ran over to take a look.
"Do you like books so much?" Mrs. Sissi thought for a while and said to the housekeeper next to her: "Give him the collection of books in our Jeanna family."
