Start As a Lord In a Viscount

Early in the morning, all the nobles in Nafhu City were standing outside the gate of the Viscount's Mansion.

"Your Excellency the Viscount, Gui'an!"

"Your Excellency the Viscount, Gui'an!"

Claire also greeted the other party with a smile, "Good morning everyone, please take a seat."

After the nobles sat down, the maids also put the fruit desserts on the table, but these things were just decorations. Except for children like Meili, not many people paid attention to them. Or because of what Frank, the administrative officer, said yesterday.

Baron Eugene said straight to the point: "Lord Viscount, I heard Frank say that you are willing to help us send troops to crusade against those robbers. Is this true?"

"Of course." Claire said, "Before they sent assassins to assassinate me, and now they stole your goods, obviously they don't care about our city of Nafu!"

Hearing this, the nobles nodded. They almost forgot that the rumor that the robber outside the city had assassinated Claire was still spread by them. If Claire planned to help them for no reason, they would still feel that there was a hole waiting for them, but after there was also the reason why they were assassinated, they felt more at ease.

"That's right, Lord Viscount was assassinated just the day before yesterday, and our goods were taken away. Those robbers simply didn't take us seriously! Lord Viscount must send troops to destroy them!"

"Of course, it's okay to send troops, but I need some compensation." Only then did Claire put forward her real purpose.

"It's natural!" Eugene patted his chest and assured, if Claire didn't want their money, he wouldn't worry.

"Lord Viscount wants us to pay as much as you want! As long as it is within our ability, we will definitely support you!" Baron Eugene is also a shrewd person. To the best of their ability, once Claire asked for too much money, they still had an excuse to refuse.

Claire narrowed her eyes and said, "I don't want your money."

The nobles present were shocked, you don't want our money? Say you need some compensation?

Claire looked up at the ceiling and said with a look of understanding: "Since I was almost killed by an assassin last time, I tossed and turned in bed that night and couldn't sleep. I just felt that life was so fragile."

Then he looked at the nobles present, "You said that people can't die without having time to enjoy everything in their lives, right?"

The nobles nodded in praise: "Of course it is."

"So that night I realized a truth, people should enjoy life well, and other people's opinions and evaluations are not important! I was too naive before, and always felt that as the heir of the Griffin family, I had to lead I want the Viscounty to regain its former glory, but after that night, my heart is completely different."

"There will always be many accidents in life. I can't die before I have time to enjoy everything. There are many beautiful things in this world, wine, women, and money!" Just saying this, Claire's eyes appeared. Tears came out, as if feeling something.

"So I have to say sorry to you here, I was too naive before, I couldn't tell the difference between myself and those civilians, and regarded you as enemies. Now I just want to enjoy it! With a lot of money, drinking the best wine in the world!"

There was a look of admiration in Baron Eugene's eyes, this guy finally figured it out, why should he be with those pariahs even though he is a noble!

Claire reached out and patted Baron Eugene on the shoulder, "You still open the clinic! Just give me 20% of the profit!"

Baron Eugene stood up excitedly and raised the wine in his hand: "Thank you, Lord Viscount!" As for making 20% ​​profit, it's better than getting nothing at all.

The rest of the nobles also showed joyful smiles. It seems that his viscount has finally come to his senses.

But Frank, the political officer, watched with cold eyes, and snorted, "Hmph, a bunch of idiots, they were all deceived by his acting skills, the smiling one is the real devil!"

Lord Wilbur said, "After all that said, where does the Viscount come from?"

Everyone also looked over curiously. They also wanted to know where the reward Claire said at the beginning came from.

Claire smiled lightly, "Of course, it's the same as before, from the hands of those commoners!"

"Oh! Paying taxes?" The nobles now believe more in Claire's awakening.

"No! You have to be a lord! Just right now! That group of robbers just happened to assassinate me and rob you of your goods. This is a good excuse!"

"How to say?"

"It's a coincidence that the Mingmu asked them to donate money in the name of sending troops."

"Then what if they don't want to donate?"

"You donate first, and they can donate after you donate. The more money you donate, the more they will donate."

"What about after you donate money?"

"I'll return your money back in full, and we'll divide their money into 37%."

"Who's 30% and who's 70%?"

"I am 30% and you are 70%!"

"It's okay not to donate!"

"Of course, you don't have any share of the seven achievements. The more you donate, the more share you will get, and the more money you will get."

After hearing this, the nobles who were present suddenly understood, it seems that the Viscount has done something more ruthless than himself.

"Okay! No problem!" Eugene agreed.

"How much do you want to donate?" Claire leaned forward.

Lord Wilbur raised his hand on the spot and said, "I'll donate a thousand gold coins!"

Claire pursed her lips. This was far from his psychological expectations. She glanced at the silent administrative officer sitting beside her.

Frank's scalp tingled just because of that glance.

"I gave thirty thousand gold coins."

All the nobles looked over in amazement. You are crazy and you have to give out 30,000 gold coins. They all think that donations can be solved with a few thousand gold coins. Your TM donation is 30,000 gold coins? !

"Are you crazy!" Lord Wilbur called out on the spot, pointing at Frank's nose and cursing.

This makes him very embarrassed. If I pay 1,000, you directly pay 30,000, which is 30 times as much as mine. What do you mean!

Frank looked ignorant, "It's up to me how much I'm willing to donate, just shut up if you donate 1,000 yuan, anyway, return the money back to me, the less you donate, I'll take it. There's more money."

It was only then that the nobles remembered the importance of the four words Claire just said, "Return as much as possible!" In other words, now is the time to compare the wealth.

But even so, they still have some concerns in their hearts. After all, this is not a matter of thousands of gold coins. If tens of thousands of gold coins are lost, it will hurt even for them.

After seeing this, Claire felt that it was time to speak, so he said: "It's okay, you can donate one or two thousand or even a few hundred gold coins, I don't ask for it, 30,000 gold coins is almost enough for this matter. used."

But Claire is like this. The nobles are more anxious. If Claire asks them to donate money, they still have doubts, but now showing that they don't lack your money at all, it makes them anxious. , This is a business without capital, and it will make a steady profit!

Recalling what Claire said just now, Eugene clapped the table and decided, "I'll give you 50,000 gold coins!"

"Good courage!" Claire praised, but did not forget to add a fire, "80,000 gold coins are enough, and the rest is a symbolic donation."

"No! It's our honor to be able to help the Viscount. How can we donate less? I also donate 30,000 gold coins!"

When the rest of the nobles saw that someone followed suit, they also made bids one after another.

"I'm forty thousand!"

"I'll also pay 30,000!"

"I'm thirty thousand!"

"I have twenty thousand!"

In the end, almost all the nobles donated most of their family property, and only the first Lord Wilbur still had the thousand gold coins.

"Okay! That's it for now." Claire clapped her hands and stood up.

"Lord Viscount, wait a moment!" Lord Wilbur was anxious, and immediately said, "I will also give out fifty thousand gold coins!"

Claire showed a friendly smile: "Lord Wilbur is really cool!"
