Chapter 155: Making a Lot of Money

"Hmph, big man, manly, don't bother with you." Eugen muttered quietly, as if afraid of being heard, and glanced up at the street ahead.

Then he let out a long sigh full of helplessness, bent down and paced towards the old mayor's residence: "Alas, it's uncomfortable, what is the problem? Didn't they all like me at first, alas, fickle women. ”

Finally walked back to the room, and the old mayor hurriedly greeted him, helped Eugen's body and said, "How is it, Lord Eugen, are you okay?" ”

Eugen glanced at the old mayor angrily, and said aggrievedly: "I said brother, you are too unkind, why don't you go out to stop me when I was beaten just now, you look at what I have been beaten into." ”

The old mayor smiled embarrassedly, helped Eugen to the bed in the room and lay down, and said helplessly: "I didn't expect you to be beaten, I said that Lord Eugen, you are too strong, you dare to treat Princess Maria and Miss Margaret like that." ”

As soon as Eugen's ass touched the bed, he screamed in pain, just now his ass can be said to be the hardest hit area, and he was beaten by the two tigresses more than a dozen times.

Eugen had no choice but to lie on his side, and then continued: "What, don't I always do what you say?" If you ask me to be open, I'll be open. ”

The old mayor said in his heart that you are called open, then you are looking for death, but the old mayor is not good to fight Eugen again, after thinking about it, he smiled and said: "Actually, Lord Eugen, you don't have to be too depressed, your beating is not a loss, you see, Princess Maria and Miss Margaret are not back together?" ”

As he spoke, the old mayor seemed to be afraid that Eugen would forget, and specially reminded: "Didn't your original purpose be to reconcile the two of them and not to come to you for trouble?" You see, now that both goals have been achieved, it can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. ”

Eugen said that I got you a ghost, it was me and not you who were beaten, but the current situation is indeed as the old mayor said, if you only look at the good side, the situation is not too bad.

Thinking like this, Eugen finally didn't say anything more, just sighed, turned sideways to rest, but accidentally touched the bruise on his buttocks, and suddenly let out a cry of pain, and tears were about to flow out.

After the events of the morning, the relationship between Maria and Margaret grew by leaps and bounds, and they soon became best friends who had nothing to say.

On the contrary, Eugen was snubbed by the two and lost his favor.

At Eugen's strong request, the events of that day were not publicized, so most people did not understand why the relationship between the three suddenly changed.

Prior to this, Maria and Margaret were each responsible for part of the governance of the city of Leber, carefully managing the city, and after the relationship between the two became better, they became more and more handy in their work, and their cooperation with each other was also full of tacit understanding.

Eugen, the lord, has nothing to do, and it is rare to be idle.

Corleone was not with Eugen either, and there was a City Guard in the city of Lyber, which Eugen gave to Corleone on the first day of his return, and put him in charge of training the soldiers.

After the battle with Blackbeard, Eugen felt more and more the importance of the army, and he was eager to build a strong team of his own.

On this day, Eugen was idle and bored, so he went to talk to the old mayor, and the topic went back and forth, and finally it was about the cost of building the city, and then Eugen realized that he had run out of money for a long time.

"You also know, Lord Eugen, all aspects of the construction of Lybor City require a lot of investment, as well as the need to maintain the town, in fact, as early as half a month ago, the gold coins you left here have been spent."

The old mayor chattered: "In the past half month, we have been using the gold coins brought by Princess Maria for urban construction, and the family behind Miss Margaret has also given some support, and I have recorded all the gold coins, which are counted as borrowing from the two young ladies." ”

Eugen didn't expect that Margaret and Maria would become his creditors.

He became the lord of the Lebor region, originally ambitious and wanted to do something big, but as a result, he became a soft eater at a discord.

"How much, how much do we owe these two young ladies?" With a mixed mind, Eugen asked the question.

"Ahem, well, I see, the total should not exceed 100,000 Kild gold, but this is because it is not a long time, if the current construction trend continues, by next year, the total amount of gold we owe should be more than 100,000 Kild gold."

"Million......" Eugen muttered, looking ahead and muttering. This is not a small amount, and it is very difficult for a big force as strong as the Habsburgs to pull out a million gold coins at once, not to mention that he is only a small earl.

Eugen felt more and more eager to make money, and he suddenly found that although he had made a lot of arrangements, there were not many projects that could make money for him, but many of them required great financial investment.

"Okay, starting tomorrow, find a way to make a lot of money!" Eugen stood up abruptly and said confidently.

There was no shortage of ways to make money in his mind, but he had focused his energy elsewhere and didn't pay attention to it.

Now that the concept has changed, Eugen does not have any specific plans in his mind, but he already has many ideas, and the next thing to do is to start acting.

As time goes by, the weather in October is already very cold, and there will be clouds gathering in the sky from time to time, and at some point a heavy snow will fall and cover the whole land.

Cold winds swept up moisture from the Mediterranean, cold rain mixed with crushed ice on the Italian peninsula, and the warm sunshine diminished day by day, and the nights became longer.

On this day, the Roman defense line, which had resisted the Black Death for more than ten days, finally collapsed completely in a pouring rain that obscured the view.

The disease spread all the time, and in the blink of an eye, it entered the Pescara area, and all the residents who were able to leave behind the defense line had been evacuated, and most of the remaining were poor farmers who could not afford to relocate.

The first targets of the Black Death were poor people.

Within two days, tens of thousands of people had died in the Pescara region.

The city of Rome, the center of Christianity, was now in a depression, and the citizens were dying in the city, their bodies lying on the streets waiting to decompose.

In the hands of many people, they still crumpled and tattered indulgences, on which the pope's floral signature faded into obscurity in the rain curtain and finally disappeared.
