When I went through all the documents that were submitted to me, I found an interesting phenomenon.

All medium-sized aristocrats can write a lot, while most of the small aristocrats are only a few words, and even some perfunctory.

I didn't pursue them on the spot, but went back to the guild with the paperwork and showed it to Boss Wren.

"What do you think about this?" I asked.

"Obviously, medium-sized aristocrats do not focus on jewelry store shares, and there must be other businesses under their names, so they are not worried about being abandoned after being used by you, but small aristocrats are different, these are just a few words, most of them pay attention to jewelry store shares, and do not want to be eliminated, so they use this as a condition to protect themselves, as for those who are perfunctory, I am afraid that they have already transferred their property and are ready to leave the jewelry store at any time."

"Well, that makes sense," I nodded, "what would I do if it were you?" ”

"Kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys" Boss Wren said: "Since you don't want to do it, you can eliminate it, but the means must be ruthless." ”

"How can you be ruthless?" I asked.

"Confiscate the property and spit out the stolen money," Boss Wren said slowly.

I added, "What if you take away their titles of nobility again?" ”

"If you do that, you'll need to limit their movements," said Boss Wren.

"That's right, once you shoot, you won't have to worry about it for life" I sneered: "I want to let them, and they will never be able to turn over!" ”

The next morning, and in the afternoon, I had two more meetings, and the content was still that I wanted them to reveal all the secrets of the jewelry store.

However, as before, the medium-sized nobles and some of the smaller nobles had no more secrets to speak of, and the vast majority of the small nobles still only said a few words, but there was more to cover than before, and the last part of the small nobles was still perfunctory.

That afternoon, after I had finished reading the last paperwork, the door to the conference room was pushed open, and several well-dressed orcs entered, handing me a stack of tariffs with all the accounts of the store since it opened, including every bill that the nobles present had spent.

With the accounts of my medium-sized nobles and small nobles, I didn't look at them and threw them aside.

I hastily flipped through the accounts of the petty nobles who were more in line with me, but who still paid attention, and casually pointed out a few of them that did not count, and asked for compensation, or to admit that I had made mistakes.

At last, I opened every account that perfunctorily perfunctory my little nobleman.

Check one by one, thoroughly check one by one, record all the wrong accounts, accounts of unknown origin, and even false accounts, calculate the amount, and then hand it to everyone.

"I like money, it's nature, it's understandable, but embezzlement at will is a crime, and making false accounts is even more hateful" My gaze swept over the faces of those perfunctory little nobles one by one, and said slowly: "These lost accounts, you make up for them today." ”

"Why!" One of the little nobles stood up and said angrily: "Why should I give you money to contribute, what I did was allowed by the previous boss!" ”

I nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but you still have to make up the money, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can find the boss to reason." ”

"How can this be true? Outrageous! A little nobleman who was a little older and who was also perfunctory to me stood up, blushed, and said angrily: "You are a commoner, how dare you insult us and other nobles like this, tell you that I have an old relationship with the city lord, if you don't apologize immediately, I will let you be finished tomorrow!" ”

"I'll wait and see what you can do to make me finish tomorrow," I looked at him and sneered.

"Okay, you wait!" He gritted his teeth, walked quickly to the door, pushed open the door and was about to leave.

However, there were already a group of adventurers guarding the door, and when they saw that someone had come out, it was not me, and they immediately raised their weapons, sharp and sharp, pointing them at his throat and facing the door, and he sat down on the ground with a thud.

After gasping for breath, he came back to his senses, turned to me, and said angrily, "What are you going to do!" ”

"What you don't do is to ask you to pay back what you owe."

"What if I don't pay it back!" He said angrily.

"If you don't pay it back, you won't be able to get out of this door."

The door was closed again, and the little nobleman who had been frightened and sat down on the ground also got up, and sat back in place with a flushed face, with a look of shame and indignation.

"You're detained!" Another perfunctory nobleman stood up and shouted angrily: "Do you know what the crime of detaining a nobleman is! ”

"I don't know."

"Well, I'll tell you, the ...... of the nobles is restrained."

"I don't want to know," I interrupted him rudely, then glared at him with cold eyes, and said coldly, "Are you sure that you are still a nobleman?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" He was confused, and his voice was a little flustered.

"It's literal."

I glanced at the orc beside me, and he took out a roll of papers from his bosom, spread it out, and read it only once, and the nobleman who was present perfunctory to me was completely paralyzed.

It's not that I'm sick and paralyzed, but that my whole body has lost its strength and is paralyzed like a salted fish.

At that moment, they lost their goals, their ideals, and their hopes.

The paper used for the paper, including the patterns on it, was recognized by every nobleman present, and it was the special paper for the great nobles who governed the region.

The above content is also very simple, just one sentence, and it contains several names, which are exactly the same as the names of the little nobles who perfunctorily gave me.

The message is simpler: deprive the person whose name is pronounced of his title of nobility, and at the same time take back his fiefdom and limit his sphere of activity.

"You are no longer nobles," I said lightly, "Therefore, my actions are not offensive to nobles, and at the same time, in view of your previous rude behavior, as well as the crimes of corruption and false accounts you have committed, I have decided to deprive you of your shares and distribute them equally among the other nobles." ”

At that time, the little nobles who perfunctory me were all dead faces, full of lovelessness.

Some of them were quick to respond, crying and rushing forward, begging me to be kind to them, but before they could utter a few words, they were stopped by my men and thrown out of the door.

"Really, it's so noisy," I muttered.

Then, he said to the orcs around him that he had worked hard, and sent them back.

These orcs are all accountants I borrowed from the Iron Wolf Guild, and now that it's over, it's time for them to go back.

After that, I continued to give meetings to other people.

This time, the meeting was much cleaner, and at the same time, I also felt the fearful gaze of the nobles present at me.

"I have taken back a lot of shares today," I said, "but I don't intend to take them for myself, I have decided to distribute them and distribute them to each of you, so that everyone will profit and make a fortune together." ”

In the conference room, there was a brief uproar in an instant, and there was more awe in the fearful eyes of many nobles.

"However, I still say the same thing, if there is any secret, you can just tell me, limit it to tomorrow until noon, this is the last chance, and you can't wait for it."
