The Founder of the Great Financial Family

Chapter 46

Its not a big deal, so you dont have to worry that much. More importantly, where is Carter? 

He, who naturally searched for the owner, was answered the same way Rockefeller responded to any customers who came to the Banco.

The owner has some work that he is busy with, so Ive been left in charge of the store. If there is anything you need, you can discuss it with me, my lord, 

Upon hearing that, the lord narrowed his eyes slightly. How long had it been since he was made an assistant that Carter was already leaving him in charge of the stores work? 

Carter seems to trust you a lot. I didnt think he was that type of person hes very cautious, 

Yes, however he trusts me. After all, my father and grandfather were also people of excellent character, 

Ah, so its the family history then? 

When Rockefeller looked down with a sad smile, bowing his head, the lord suddenly had a different thought. 

Rather than that snake Carter, it would be better to borrow money from the young Rockefeller. 

Id rather deal with the kid. Carter is sneaky enough to be like a goblin,

Ahem, well, that means there should be no problems borrowing money from you? 

Yes, there are no problems, 

Then I dont have to meet Carter. Ill speak to you instead, 

The lord immediately continued to speak, 

The Hound Mercenaries asked for an additional 100 Talents to hire a Mage. Thats why I need 100 Talents right away, 

100 Talents? 

A months wage for the average rural worker was roughly 1 Talent, so paying 100 Talents to hire a Mage for a single mission was an amazing price. 

A Mages price is truly high, 

It was the equivalent of hiring a lawyer or a private doctor in modern times. They were specialist professions with high earning potential. 

Is a mages wage really that expensive? 

Of course, not anyone can become a Mage, so the price is higher than normal or else theres no reason to work so hard to be a Mage, 

As the lord recalled the dead Hans, he smiled faintly, 

Come to think of it. Your father failed to become a Mage as well. I dont know; maybe if Hans had succeeded in his path as a Mage, he would have done quite well. If he was lucky, he might have been able to buy a small piece of land and become a noble, 

His faint smile twisted into ridicule. 

But of course, he couldnt do that. It wasnt his place to become a Mage after all, 

Why was he bringing up a dead person here? And that too in such a malicious way. 

Rockefeller was upset, but he didnt express it all and instead asked another question, 

By the way, my lord, this might be a presumptuous question, but 100 Talents is a lot of money for people like us, but for the lord, 100 Talents would not be a huge amount, would it? 

The lords expression hardened at the implied Why is a man of wealth such as yourself coming all the way here to borrow money?. 

If he had money in his hands, would he have come all the way here? These days, the problem is that there are too many places to spend money. 

Youre asking useless things, 

Im sorry if it was rude. Im just worried that the money you borrow might cause you trouble, 

Id get in trouble? The lord smirked, 

As if, 

But if you have a lot of debt, wouldnt anyone be in trouble? 

For a moment, the lord recalled that the Borrowing Certificate he signed could be traded elsewhere, and his expression hardened, but he soon corrected it.
