Chapter 209 "Alas, I regard you as a brother, but..."
"I don't know if these nobles are too stupid or have a long-term vision. We don't plan to touch them in the short term. They are courting death."
"Oh no, there are some who are not so stupid. They are contacting us now, planning to join us, and planning to report others."
Zou Peng shook his head.
“To be honest, this group of nobles are so corrupt that they are nothing.
He has no strength and no courage, and he surrenders before he even starts, while still saying that it is for the continuation of the family.
I really don’t know what to say.”
"Isn't this normal? After all, it is an aristocratic system, born noble, and he is not a founding aristocrat. If he were a founding aristocrat, he might have some courage.
Also, don’t forget that even the king of the Morse Kingdom is just a marquis.
The country has less than ten cities and has just split from a province of the Northern Empire.
And its location is right between the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire. What do you think this looks like?
This is a small rural place where the country is not founded on military force but on politics.
The nobles in such places are just a group of local rich people and village tyrants.
Apart from Earl Red Maple, they are all small nobles with no background, and didn’t Earl Red Maple perform well before?
As for the governance of Red Maple City, it was just constrained by the entire aristocratic system and dragged down by this group of good teammates.
Do you think it’s more normal if you think this way? "
Zou Peng supported his chin with his hand and fell silent.
"There's nothing wrong with what you said, but I just feel like something is a little weird when I hear you say that."
Zou Peng thought about it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head.
"Forget about it. I'll just kill them anyway. It's not like before when we couldn't beat them. Now they are just a bunch of younger brothers!"
Zou Peng turned and left, but before leaving he suddenly remembered something and turned back and said.
"By the way, Geng Tao seems to be doing something outrageous again."
…
In Red Maple City, a player quietly slipped into the castle from the back door. A person in front of him looked at him passionately.
“Did you make money?”
“Here you are. I made a little more money this time. Here is your principal, one hundred gold nas.
This is your dividend, eighty-nine gold nas. OK, just sign first and I will pay you the money.
There is written evidence to prove it.”
"Okay, okay, okay."
If other people in the castle saw this scene, they would probably be stunned. Is this still the usually majestic and ruthless butler?
The housekeeper saw that the money he had saved with great difficulty had nearly doubled in just a few days. He didn't care about anything else and just signed the receipt and took the money.
The players began to check their receipts and waited for the butler to count the kinnas .
The butler ordered carefully, and the player did not rush him. He watched quietly and only spoke after he finished ordering.
"Why, the number is correct?"
"Yes, that's right."
The butler nodded with a smile on his face.
"Okay, that's fine. I'm leaving now."
The player turned and left after he finished speaking. The butler was a little slow in reacting and quickly called him back.
"Hey, wait, wait."
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
The player looked at him with some confusion, but the butler was also a little confused.
"Why did you leave? What about the next issue?"
"Huh? What's the next issue? There's no next issue ."
The player paused and spoke out.
"What? It's gone? Didn't a new issue start every time one ended a few days ago?"
"The other day was the other day, and today... today is gone."
The player said after a moment of hesitation, then turned and left.
The butler looked at the player's back and felt a little regretful.
"Damn it, how come it's gone? If I had known I would have thrown more.
Now it’s gone, gone…wait!”
A flash of inspiration came to the butler's mind. The player's previous slowness was clearly very similar to himself.
The butler reacted instantly and said to the player who had already walked to the door.
"etc!"
"Hmm? Anything else?"
The player turned around and looked at him in confusion.
The butler smiled as he walked forward and placed a gold nuss in the player's hand with a smile on his face.
"I almost forgot. Thank you for your hard work during this period. If there is a chance next time, remember to let me know. I will definitely benefit from it."
"this……"
The player hesitated, picked up a gold coin and looked at it from left to right in his hand.
"It does say there are no more projects here. I'm not sure about this..."
The butler saw that the scene was becoming more and more familiar, and the sense of déjà vu was getting stronger. He cursed in his heart, but his face was still full of smiles. He took out two more gold coins and put them in the player's hand.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't count clearly just now and took the wrong one . Keep it well, keep it well."
The player immediately smiled friendly.
"Hey, I treat you as a brother, what do you mean by this? You look down on your brothers, don't you?"
The player put Jinnas directly in his pocket, then hesitated and sighed.
"Hey, brother, I did lie to you. As for the project, it's not that I didn't want to talk about it, but the higher-ups strictly prohibited me from revealing it.
But brother, you treat me like this, I would feel guilty and uneasy if I don’t say anything.
Let me be honest with you, there is still a project, but why didn’t I tell you?
Brother, I told you this, please don’t think it’s harsh, okay.”
"Okay, okay, just go ahead."
When the housekeeper heard about the project, he said with a smile on his face.
“Brother, the reason why there were the first few issues was because my boss didn’t have enough money, so we warmed up and raised some funds.
And you just come along to play for a bit and make some good connections.
Now that we have raised enough funds, it's time to get down to business. To be honest, the boss feels that the profits are too big and he doesn't want to take you guys along anymore.
Hey, let me tell you, I only told you this, don’t tell anyone, or I’ll be in trouble.”
Seeing the player's nervous look, the butler calmed down a lot, but then he was occupied by this project again and asked cautiously.
"How big is the profit? Can it be bigger than the previous ones?"
The player glanced at him with disdain when he heard this.
"That's it? You are ignorant. Let me tell you, this is the minimum amount this time."
The player silently opened his palm and raised five thumbs.
When the housekeeper saw this, his breathing suddenly became heavy.
"Five times?"
The player nodded proudly.
"No, you must take me with you. I want to participate in the investment, too."
The butler stuffed the money directly into the players' hands.
"You take it. You take it."
"No, our boss said it's not allowed."
The player simply pushed it away with his hand and refused to take the money no matter what.
"With more money, can't you earn more? I'll give you a portion, and you take it from me, and I'll give you a portion."
Looking at the butler's appearance, the player shook his head and sighed.
"Well, let me tell you what our boss said.
Our boss doesn't even look at the few hundred kinas you have, and we have to trouble people to keep accounts for you and deliver the money, and you are still hesitating and worrying about this and that.
It’s really meaningless.”
When the housekeeper heard the word "blood", his head immediately went to his head and he said with a red face and thick neck.
"Who are you looking down on? Five thousand, I'll take five thousand!!"
