Chapter 042: Exoneration Money

Soon the streets were cleaned up, everyone returned to normal life, and Ning Yu came to the Baron's Mansion a day later.

Because of the relationship between Baron Lu Yan, the Baron's Mansion looks a little depressed, and it is no longer prosperous, and there are ninety percent fewer carriages waiting for gifts at the door, and only a few scattered cars remain, all of which are here to promote the noble rank.

To say that the only thing that has not been affected is Wang Shengcai, firstly, he directly belongs to the Viscount's Mansion, and secondly, it does not matter to him whether there is a baron or not, and he only needs to manage his wealth.

Hearing that Ning Yu was visiting, Wang Shengcai hurriedly ran out of the aristocratic registry, and said with a smile on his face: "Ning Jue, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I want to think about it." ”

Ning Yu glared at the other party with a cold face, no longer as respectful as before, and entered the room without saying a word, sitting on the main seat of the room.

"Haha, I haven't seen you for many days, Ning Jue has always been good?" Wang Shengcai personally brought a cup of good tea and asked weakly.

"Thanks to you, I was almost killed by Lu Yan. Ning Yu said angrily: "Lord Wang, I asked myself if I have treated you badly, every time I do things, I have a lot of filial piety, why do you still hurt me? Could it be that in your eyes, I, Ning Yu, are not as good as a baron Lu Yan who has inherited the merits of my father's generation, but is a wine bag and rice bag?"

"No, no, no, Ning Jue laughed, Ning Jue was already a baron at a young age, and his future must be limitless, how dare I offend easily, it is really Lu Yan who is so hateful, and I used my family to threaten me, so I accidentally said it, it's really no wonder to me." Wang Shengcai said no, explaining half-truthfully.

In fact, Lu Yan just mentioned the matter of accepting bribes on weekdays, and he was afraid that Lu Yan would sue the viscount, so he said everything.

How could Ning Yu not see that Wang Shengcai was lying, but firstly, he did not have a deep hatred with Wang Shengcai, the other party was just greedy for money, and secondly, Wang Shengcai belonged directly to the viscount, and he was counted as the viscount's confidant, and now was not the time to tear his face, so he had to say: "So that's the case, that's my fault lord, I came to get the baron's medal this time, and ask the lord to give me the medal." ”

"It's nature. Wang Shengcai seemed to have been prepared early in the morning, and took out Ning Yu's medal and documents from the space ring.

In addition to this, there are actually three silver coins.

"Ning Jue is a baron who was directly promoted from a third-class knight, which is a special case, there is no second-class and first-class knight's title gold, these three silver coins are Ning Jue's three-month title gold when he was still a third-class knight, because Ning Jue is relatively busy, he has not received it, so I have received it for you, I have always kept it, and now I will hand it over to you. Wang Shengcai saw that Ning Yu had doubts on his face, and hurriedly explained.

Ning Yu suddenly realized when he heard this, but he forgot that the nobles could receive the materials distributed by the empire every month, and the low-level nobles like knights were generally money, also known as title gold, and a silver coin per month did not seem to be much, but if it was converted into copper coins, it would be a thousand copper, if it was more than what he had earned in a year in the past.

This is the current situation of the empire, the commoners have to pay taxes to the empire if they are not well fed and clothed, and the nobles do not have to do anything, but they can receive high sums of goods.

Looking at the three shiny silver coins in front of him, Ning Yu uncharacteristically did not take them, but instead took out a bunch of things from the space ring, scrolls, magic cores, weapons, silk, gold and silver jewelry, and so on.

"What is Ning Jue doing?" Wang Shengcai watched Ning Yu take things out one by one, a little puzzled.

"I killed Xu Jing before, and there are some guys who don't know if they are nobles, please convert these things into money, and see how much is left to make up for the empire's exoneration. Ning Yu said as he took out something.

"I see. Wang Shengcai suddenly realized, and immediately smiled as if offering a treasure, and said diligently: " Ning Jue has just been promoted, I don't think I know the laws of the empire too well, you are now a baron, and the things you have done before can be judged according to your current status, that is to say, if there is no one with a higher status than the baron among the people you kill, then you don't need to pay the exoneration money, who told them to besiege you first, according to the imperial law, it is a big crime to besiege and kill nobles higher than your own status, Ning Jue, you didn't accuse them of besieging you, it is already a cheap one for them and their families, so why do you need to pay any exoneration. It's just one thing, in addition to Xu Jing being a second-class knight, she also has a position in the Baron's Palace, and you still have to pay this part of the exoneration money. ”

The title is different from the position, the title is like the ancient Xiucai and champion in Ning Yu's previous world, it is just a social status, and the person with a position is like a land protector, a county official, a prefect, and a person who works in the state department.

In Zufeng City, there is more than one baron, but there is only one baron with a position, Lu Yan.

Xu Jing's position in the Baron's Mansion is called the head of the female genus in the south of the city, Ning Yu simply thinks that she is the female director of the original world, anyway, her position is also arranged for her by the merry baron Lord Lu Yan using her authority, and she is not coming from the right way, so there is no need to remember it carefully.

Ning Yu stayed for a while, waiting for Wang Shengcai to calculate the empire's exoneration money and hand over the things before leaving.

Coming out of the Baron's Mansion, Ning Yu carefully flipped through the remaining things in the space ring, and there were not many things left that had been "collected" from the half-undead man before, but Gu Yu's IOU was still there, and the big words of "600 gold" on it were particularly dazzling.

"The baron can apply for a mansion, and although he may not have a position, he can at least have a piece of land of his own. Ning Yu muttered to himself, suddenly thinking of the magic wizard Wu Zun whose strength was still above the six elders of Tianlan, he dispelled his thoughts, shook his head and said: "Forget it, as the saying goes, a monk who runs away can't run the temple, and it will be troublesome if he has a mansion, let's talk about this later, first find a way to avoid Wu Zun, otherwise there will be nothing if there is no life." ”

While speaking, Ning Yu came to the largest magic guide shop in the city, which sells all kinds of magic guides, battles, auxiliaries, scrolls, etc., and even has a pawnshop business, which is very convenient for people like Ning Yu who don't have much money, but have something to trade.

"Dear guest, how can I help you?" At the counter at the door, lined up, there were five beautiful women with fat and thin rings, and when Ning Yu walked into the store, a woman in a light blue skirt walked towards him enthusiastically.

This is different from Ning Yu's previous world, the owner of the shop is generally hired by civilians, and may even be slaves, for the owner of the shop, the customer is God, and the people below him will naturally try their best to cater to this in order to protect themselves, and dare not be rude to the guests who walk into the store.

Although, Ning Yu slammed the door...... Ahem, wearing an ordinary cloth coat in a low-key manner, he looks like the most ordinary civilian.

"This young lady, I want to buy a magic guide that can hide the aura, of course, it would be better if I could change my appearance. Ning Yu lowered his voice and whispered like a thief.

"Yes, please come with me. In order to cooperate with Ning Yu, the woman also lowered her voice, and did not forget to add: "Distinguished guest, you can call me Xiao Dong, or call my number, number 57." ”

"Then what's so embarrassing, I'll call you Miss Dong. Ning Yu laughed dryly, subconsciously still having the concept of the original world, unable to despise the commoners like the nobles of this world, and arrogant to people whose status is lower than his own.
