Chapter 105
Episode 105. The Apple Tree Mansion, which he visited after a long time in Grandice Kingdom,
was lively unlike before.
I don’t know what the hell Amy is doing, but there are small things piled up around the warehouse building that I couldn’t see.
And there were a lot of people coming and going and moving the luggage, and I thought it might have something to do with what Amy is doing these days.
“Welcome, my lord.”
I was greeted by Lupin, who was hired as a servant at the mansion.
I nodded and pointed to a warehouse-like building.
“It’s a building I’ve never seen before.”
“It was built by Lady Amy with the money sent by the head of the household. It sounds like you want to start a small business.”
Amy’s business.
It was so unexpected that I decided to ask Amy directly for details.
But Amy was away at the time, so I had no choice but to sit in the drawing room, get tea from Lupin, and listen to what happened.
“Has Viscount Welton been visiting lately?”
“I’ve been here twice since the head of the household visited last time. One time, when Miss Amy was away, she visited and returned, and then a week later, she visited again and was treated to a cup of tea.”
It’s been quite some time since I visited the mansion again, so I didn’t visit as many times as I thought. I thought that maybe the emperor paid less attention to me than I thought.
“brother?”
After talking for about an hour, Amy finally returned.
She was standing there holding something in her hands and looking at me with a surprised look at my sudden visit.
“I’m here.”
“Why did you come without contact? You were surprised.”
Amy tidied up the things she was carrying and sat across from me.
As soon as she sat down, I asked her questions.
“What is that out there?”
“I want to do some business.”
“It’s nice to do it, but isn’t it too sudden?”
At my question, Amy hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“I want to take back our territory.”
“Our manor? Are you talking about the Cromwell estate?”
It was a land that has now belonged to the empire and became the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.
Honestly, it’s funny that we still use the surname Cromwell.
Perhaps, if Bahat or Sinclair hadn’t stepped up during the last nongong peddling, my title would have been demoted and ruined as it is.
‘It’s still not a very good situation.’
It wasn’t just the last time that was the problem, but since he was an aristocrat without a territory, his downfall was predestined.
In order not to become a fallen nobleman, I had to have at least a territory or a position in the capital, but now I am a student.
In many ways, it was difficult to prevent the demotion of the title.
“I also want to achieve something with my own hands. Also, I want to earn money because I want to do something that will help my brother and bring pride to our family.”
“The Cromwell estate is a county. You know it’s not just a penny or two, right?”
“Still, I don’t like lounging around at home, eating only the money my brother sends me. I want to do something.”
Unlike anyone else, he was a child with a good life.
How could they have been born so differently as siblings?
Amy kept an eye on me as she spoke, but she was worried that I might say something. First of all, I am sending money, so in the end, it was like running a business with my own money.
“Yes, do whatever you want. Anyway, like you said, we don’t have a territory, so there’s nowhere to spend money. And if it goes well, that’s good.”
To be honest, money has become more important now that enhancement traits have been introduced.
But Amy’s happiness was more important to me than those enhancing traits.
“really? Aren’t you mad?”
“Why am I angry? It seems like you’ve been in the business for quite some time. How is it?”
“wait a minute.”
Amy got up and went upstairs.
Soon after, he came down with the ledger and handed it to me.
“Check it.”
“Are you confident? Seeing you give it away like this?”
Seeing Amy respond to my words with a smile, I got a little excited.
To be honest, I wasn’t expecting much, but how confident are you?
When I sneakily checked the ledger Amy handed me, I could see that the ledger, which started with small numbers at first, was increasing in amount and increasing sales more than expected.
‘The net profit is not large, but the size is steadily growing.’
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Amy, who had never done anything like this before, had a talent for this level of achievement. In addition, even if net profit was given up, the decision to boldly increase the size made people shake their heads unless they had a tolerable strong heart.
‘If I go bankrupt like this, I’ll be ruined.’
I was a little worried, but when I saw Amy’s sparkling eyes, I didn’t want to say anything bad. Besides, Amy also had a cheat key called me.
I picked up the pen from the ledger and wrote down something in a corner of the ledger.
“What are you doing, brother?”
“just. Take a look when you have time.”
It was like a rough prediction of what would happen in the future.
would it be like this? As if giving advice, it was entirely up to Amy to use it with a small memo.
‘I only know what will happen in the future, because I don’t know which properties will sell well or not.’
And now that I’ve handed over the information to Amy, I need to increase the amount of money I send monthly. There was no way to know if the current decision would turn into a goose that lays golden eggs.
“Can I read it now?”
“uh. Do whatever you feel like.”
It took a little while because there was quite a bit of content.
The stories I had with Minus Morhaime the other day overlapped quite a bit, but maybe it was because I had told them once, so this time I was able to organize them a little more and transfer them.
Amy immediately confirmed those few details.
I came here with the intention of leaving after seeing my sister’s face for a while, but I did something unexpected.
“Is this for real? Where do I get my information?”
Amy’s expression, which at first seemed to be reading without thinking, grew darker and then became serious. In the end, without even reading it all, he raised his head and looked up at me, but I shrugged my shoulders and said,
“What did I think? Believe it or not, it’s up to you to decide, so think carefully and choose what to use.”
“… … After all, my brother was a genius.”
Amy murmured, looking at the notes I wrote once more.
It will look quite plausible because it was written as if the result was inferred from the already revealed cause, rather than simply writing down what would happen in the future. Indeed, even Minus, the duke, admired what I had to say.
‘For example, the war of nerves between the northwest territories that will happen soon. Originally, due to the recent drought, the waterway would have been connected with moderate rainfall, but this year it did not. Thanks to that, the war of nerves surrounding the waterway intensifies. This is not simply a matter between the lords, but as the farmers directly collide with each other, later, even the territory war surrounding the waterway takes place.’
So far, it is at the level of a small quarrel between farmers, but in a few months it is a pretty big incident that will spread to the territory.
It seems quite plausible to the reader, as it has been analyzed in advance and arranged as if it predicted what would happen in the future. You’ll be even more surprised when I do what I said later.
Among the information I know, these incidents were not one or two.
Having played the game dozens of times, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he knew almost all of the incidents and accidents that occurred within the Rodelene Empire.
What I wrote down for Amy was, among other things, information that could be used for business.
Of course, I don’t know how to make money with this.
“Don’t be too overconfident. You judge well and use it.”
“Thank you brother.”
Knowing that Amy was going to run the company business, I thought I could ask for help from the Everlast company. If the Everlast Company helps Amy, who is just starting to take her place, she will be able to grow even faster.
‘First of all, I decided to return and visit once, so I’ll have to take a look at it at that time.’
I found out about Amy’s business unexpectedly, but it felt good.
Seeing Amy happy is enough.
Seeing her eyes burning with passion made me feel proud.
* * *
Returned to the mansion after a long time, but had to come out soon.
Originally, I planned to stay for a few days, but Amy was busy analyzing my notes, and I had no choice but to leave early, with nothing to do.
‘And I have to go quickly and stop by Hollington.’
If you decide to help Amy, you should really help her.
Since she was a younger sister who would have lived her life giving up everything she wanted to do, now she wanted to help her with both her mind and heart in whatever she was doing.
‘It will be a rather long journey from now on.’
The Kingdom of Grandis, facing the Great Forest of Vayatra, was the only country on the continent that bordered the Great Forest. Therefore, it was a military powerhouse that always fostered soldiers, but there were not many troops that could be operated for a military powerhouse.
Most of the soldiers were deployed in the border area with the Great Forest to block the beasts and monsters coming out of there every day.
I knew it in detail because it was a place I often visited while playing a mercenary character to build experience and reputation.
For now, there was no big worry because they could go to the Grandis Kingdom by train.
After riding the train like that for about 4 days, I was finally able to arrive at Grandis Kingdom.
“A long time.”
A military powerhouse where 80% of the population has combat experience.
And for mercenaries and wandering knights, it was a land called the land of opportunity.
It had a reputation as a kingdom that unconditionally paid the promised reward regardless of rank.
“It’s the same there.”
As I said, it was a place I had visited at least once with most of the mercenary characters in the game, so it was the first time I had visited, but it was a kingdom that felt familiar.
Among them, the city of Heyyar, where the feet touch first, was as imagined while riding the train.
When I came here in the game, I naturally moved my steps while looking at the inn I had visited all the time. I was thinking of leaving for Daesoorim the next day after getting rid of the travel poison I had accumulated from taking the train all the way to this place.
“Adrias Cromwell!”
I reflexively turned my head at the sudden sound of my name.
Who is it? Is there anyone in Grandice Kingdom who knows me?
“I found it hehe.”
When I checked the face of the person I spoke to, I had no choice but to freeze.
Because the person who called me was an unexpected guest.
“It was so boring because I was always confined to the academy. Now you have to entertain me, okay?”
“Luna.”
Spirit Seeing Shaman 3rd Moon Madman’s Fall.
And the worst and strongest necromancer.
Luna Pendragon was approaching me with a bright smile.
The three moons behind her were brighter today.
