Chapter 72: Convinced that he is the protagonist

"Knock-"

Arthur, who was trolling his eyebrows and tapping on the keyboard while thinking about it, heard a knock on the door, and said without raising his head: "Please come in-"

The door was pushed open, and Paul, the butler, walked in with a steaming coffee cup and sugar cube tray in both hands.

"Lord, it's approaching midnight, and you need to rest. ”

Stopping his hands tapping on the keyboard, Arthur looked up at Paul, the butler who walked across from him, moved his wrists, shook his head and smiled: "Time flies really fast, I have only written less than 20,000 words." ”

When the butler Paul heard this, he was slightly surprised, he really didn't expect his earl to be so efficient, and at the same time, he admired the earl's talent more and more, and while handing the coffee cup to Arthur, he walked to the side, picked up the metal detector leaning against the desk, and prepared to put it in the corner.

"Hmm-"

Arthur, who was lifting his coffee cup and taking a sip, saw Paul's movements, and hurriedly stopped: "Leave them alone, just put them there, I'm tired of writing, I can take it and scan the castle room, maybe I can find something." ”

The butler Paul's mouth twitched slightly, shook his head and chuckled, put the metal detector in his hand back into place, and smiled: "There are no secrets in the castle, the dark compartment and the dark room are very clean. ”

"Huh?"

Arthur shook his head and raised his eyebrows in disapproval and said: "That maybe, I have thought about secretly opening up a new secret grid in the future, putting in some things, and giving some surprises to my descendants, and I think there must be ancestors who have the same ideas and practices as me, a big surprise for future generations!"

"Hehe... ”

The butler Paul was speechless, he could only shake his head and chuckle twice, he found that his own earl changed everything for good, that is, he was too obsessed with money, it seems that the treasure hunt news in the newspaper has really a great impact on the earl.

Of course, in Arthur's view, what he did was by no means useless, a very simple thing was actually there, he found more than a dozen antique gadgets from the old storage room of the castle, whether it was worth it or not, but it showed one thing, there are good things in this castle that has gone through hundreds of years of wind and rain, and the key is to have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering.

After drinking coffee, Arthur did not accept the persuasion of the housekeeper Paul, and continued to sit in front of the computer and write "Boleyn Manor", since he has sold the film and television rights, then, he will use the shortest time to publish the novel as soon as possible, so that the TV series and the novel can promote each other and promote sales.

"Yawn—"

Leaning back in the boss's chair, Arthur raised his arms, stretched his waist, yawned, shook his head, reached out and took the mouse and clicked on the document to save, and glanced at the time, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning.

Leaving his seat, he turned off the lights casually, walked out of the study, walked into the studio along the corridor, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard the sound of two computer chassis working, turned on the light, there were only two tables and a chair in the empty studio, and there were two computers on the table that had just been bought, and the walls of the studio were covered with oil paintings from various periods, although Arthur did not know who the author of these paintings was, but in terms of the time that had passed, there should still be some value.

Walking to the computer, Arthur sat down, shook the mouse separately, and the black screen monitor lit up.

"Da-da-"

Clicked the mouse twice, entered the bitcoin mining interface, and saw the number 30 displayed above, which made Arthur excited to look at the number of another one, 29.

Unexpectedly, two machines, five or six hours to mine 59 bitcoins for themselves, Arthur was surprised by the mining speed and efficiency, happy at the same time, but also quickly relieved, although the total amount of bitcoins is 21 million, but now at this time period, the block reward is still very high, and there are not many miners. It is no problem to dig five or six pieces per hour, unlike later, with a professional mining machine, you can't dig one a day.

Arthur also thought about the idea of buying bitcoin on the forum, but this idea was temporarily suppressed by reason, and now bitcoin is just a small circle of 'toys', a large number of acquisitions of bitcoin may attract attention, and it will also speculate on the value of the currency, once the magic box of bitcoin value is unveiled early, this is not much good for Arthur now, and it may also cause some unexpected changes because of his wings flapping.

Something that can be bought for a dollar, no one wants to spend a hundred dollars!

"It's so easy to dig, let's dig first!"

The corners of Arthur's mouth went up, smiling very happily, while digging by himself, while always paying attention to the information on the forum, once there is a large amount of bitcoin for sale information, that is the best time for him to make a move, as long as the first real and effective transaction does not appear, bitcoin is still a small circle of 'toys'!

"Yawn—"

Yawned again, Arthur didn't waste time, got up and left the studio that was digging treasures for him day and night, returned to the bedroom, washed up, took off GUANG's clothes and went to Chuang, originally Arthur slept in pajamas, but since living in the castle and enjoying the light HUA's silk single quilt, and then sleeping in clothes, it was really a waste, and it was a ruin!

Wake up to October, autumn is the most beautiful season in the UK, the bright sunshine, the mountains and forests, the ancient and elegant castles, like a colorful oil painting, picturesque, dreamlike.

The secluded path in the woods, which is more than 200 meters long, is paved with soft pine needles, making people lose themselves in golden romance, and the vast lawn is dotted with sculptures, babbling streams, and ancient benches, which are unimaginably beautiful.

"Wang-"

Dressed in a brown sweater, jeans and sneakers, Arthur was holding a metal detector and intently 'scanning' the land around every tree in the forest path, and four black Labradors were curiously and happily surrounding Arthur, wagging their tails and scurrying back and forth.

Arthur has decided that dog walking and treasure hunting will be tied together and become his daily routine every morning, and he believes that God will be on his side and will surprise him one day.

"Hum - tick tick... ”

"Wang-"

The metal detector sounded again, causing the dogs to bark uneasily, Arthur ignored the dogs' fears, but took the sapper shovel from the Great Celestial Empire from his waist with bright eyes, squatted down, brushed away the fallen leaves, turned the sapper shovel into a small hoe, and looked for the 'treasure'.

"Shet-"

Looking at a 50p coin in his hand, Arthur spat in frustration, patted off the soil on his hand, and stood up again.

Walking back to the castle, Arthur saw Paul, the butler, smiling at the doorway.

"How's it going, Lord, this morning?"

The corners of Arthur's mouth tugged, "It's not bad, I found another £20 pence for £1." ”

As he spoke, he tossed the coin in his hand, and the butler Paul smiled and took the metal detector and the sapper shovel, and said, "You can try your luck near the Temple of Diana tomorrow, one of those treasure maps is near there, although we searched for it at the beginning, but we didn't find it, maybe you can find it." ”

"Well, I'll go around that neighborhood in the afternoon. Although he did not have much hope, Arthur did not refuse, and said as he walked into the castle.

"Your breakfast is ready... Looking at the young earl's back, the butler Paul reminded.

Arthur didn't look back, raised his hand and waved, "Got it, I'll clean it and come down immediately." ”

Paul, the butler, looked at the Count as he walked up the stairs, looked down at the metal detector and sapper shovel in his hand, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
