"Big ...... My lord! Vice-captain Hunter fell to his knees and bowed to Claire.

Dean a silver knight died in front of him, and Claire's shot shocked him too much.

After Hunter knelt down, the more than fifty knights behind him also knelt in front of Claire one after another.

This time, Claire did not dodge, but looked at them with indifferent eyes, and a momentum of not being angry and arrogant arose.

Those knights didn't even dare to raise their heads before they received orders, and could only bow humbly and hope that the viscount would not attack them.

Claire stretched out her hand and pointed at Hunter, "You'll be the captain of the knights from now on." ”

Hunter raised his head incredulously, a little incredulous, pointed to himself and asked, "Lord Viscount, are you talking about me?" ”

"Yes." After speaking, Claire glanced at the corpse at her feet and said, "Deal with it." ”

Then let Reagan lead the carriage and follow him past the fifty knights into the city gate.

Hunter immediately stood up and shouted at Claire, "Lord Viscount, what to do!" ”

"Cut off his head and hang it at the door of your barracks." Claire also spoke up.

As soon as these words came out, the more than fifty knights present heard it, and there was silence in the crowd, and the sound of swallowing saliva could be clearly heard, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes.

This viscount is too ruthless, not at all like what a sixteen-year-old child can do.

After walking out for a while, Reagan couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Young Master, why are you doing this?" ”

Claire chuckled, "Let them wake up every day to see the head of the former Knight captain, and that's what will happen against me." ”

Reagan's heart turned upside down, when did his young master have this kind of means, but ...... This is what a true aristocrat can do! The Griffin family has produced a talent, sir, you can be considered to have been comforted in the spirit of heaven.

Although it was the first time to kill someone, Claire's heart didn't fluctuate much, it was originally that the other party wanted to kill herself, and she was just defending herself, but she used too much force, it shouldn't be a big problem, and the person concerned should have no opinion.

……

The Viscount's Mansion is located in the middle of Nafu City, and it is also the best building in Nafu City, as soon as you enter the city, you can see the towering castle, and the same as Nafu City, the Viscount's Mansion was also built when the ancestors of the Griffin family were wide, so it is very new and gorgeous.

However, she was used to seeing high-rise buildings in her previous life, as well as various forms of buildings, so Claire didn't feel so shocked in her heart.

Entering the Viscount's Palace, Claire did not enter first, but asked Reagan to take the knights who came with him to clean the inside, and then moved the furniture and other heavy objects in turn, and when it was almost over, the moon was already hanging high in the night sky.

Claire watched the moon in the pavilion for half an hour, and Reagan finally led someone to clean up the Viscount's Mansion.

After sending away the knights who came with them, only Reagan and Claire were left alone in the empty Viscount's Mansion.

"Young master, take care of it, let's go in."

"Hmm." Claire nodded lightly and walked into the castle, the castle has six floors, and a basement, adding up to a total of seven floors, there are more than fifty large and small rooms in total, and there is a lawn about the size of a football field outside the door, as well as a gazebo, which is indeed much more luxurious than those villas in the previous life.

Claire simply walked around the castle where she was going to live in the future.

Reagan followed closely behind, and whispered apologetically: "I can only do this for the time being, young master, and when it is dawn tomorrow, I will go and recruit some maids." ”

"Hmm." Claire snorted in a nasal voice.

"Maids are not allowed in the basement and on the top floor." Claire instructed that the basement he intended to use as a place for experiments, since he was a junior mage himself, and the top floor was used to store the items he usually traded.

"Clear."

"How's the job being treated?"

"Eat and live, and return two hundred copper coins every month."

In terms of current purchasing power, two or three copper coins can generally buy food that can fill the stomach, so these two hundred copper coins do not seem to be a lot. However, you must know that in the current Viscount of Griffin, many people can't even eat enough, and being able to eat and live is already a good treatment. If it weren't for the preservation of the Griffin family's reputation, Reagan would have been reluctant to spend those 200 copper coins.

"Double, four hundred copper coins." Claire said softly.

He roughly calculated in his mind that the area of the castle would recruit fifteen maids at most, and all of them would cost less than ten gold coins a year. The cost of doing a random experiment by themselves is higher than their annual expenses, so this is really not a bad money.

Reagan was slightly stunned, and then spoke: "You are really a benevolent lord, and I think your people will cheer for your kindness." ”

Claire asked again, "How much do we have left?" ”

"More than 7,000 gold coins or so."

This amount of money is really nothing to the nobles, the dagger that Claire held in her hand before is worth thousands of gold coins, and these seven thousand gold coins are just enough to support them to live a decent aristocratic life, if there is no income, it can be used up in a few months.

"More than seven thousand, that's enough for a while, tomorrow you go and call the administrative officer."

"Yes, young master, are you going to raise taxes?" Reagan asked tentatively.

"No, I'm going to take a tax cut."

"That's absolutely impossible, young master." Reagan was anxious all of a sudden, "We just arrived in the viscounty, and the money is not enough, if you want to cut taxes...... Reagan didn't say the latter words, then we can't even maintain the life of the nobles, and we will be laughed at by other lords.

Claire patted Reagan on the shoulder, "Remember the mother and son trio we met?" ”

"What's wrong? Master. ”

"Their tax revenue has become once a month, and after all these years, there is no oil and water to squeeze. No matter how much we raise taxes, it won't increase our income. ”

"If you don't scrape the oil and water of civilians, who will you scrape?"

"Whoever has the money earns whom, and the oil and water that is scraped out must be more and fatter than that of the common people."

Reagan was slightly stunned, feeling that what his young master said was quite reasonable, but he just didn't understand, if the nobles didn't scrape the oil and water of the commoners, who else could they scrape?

Claire suddenly thought of something, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, "By the way, by the way, check this political official to see how much gold he has embezzled that should have belonged to us." ”

There is no need to check whether there is corruption at all, but directly to find out how much corruption is made, if there is no political official behind the help, Claire does not believe that the tax can be received and almost force people to death.

"Young Master......" Reagan's expression was a little embarrassed.

However, Claire had already expected this situation, "It's okay, this is not in a hurry, it's not too late to write it down and check it later." ”

In the final analysis, the viscount is now only himself and Reagan, and there is no other manpower, even if Reagan is asked to investigate, he doesn't know where to start.

"There is no hurry to recruit maids, and when the decree of tax reduction is promulgated, it will be announced together."

"Yes!"

"It's getting late, let's go down and rest."

"Okay, Young Master Gui'an."

On the roof of the sixth floor, Claire could see the moon outside through the transparent windows, which was much larger and glowing blue than it was on Earth.

“emmm。” Claire lay on the recliner and rubbed her chin, "I don't know if there is a saying in this world that the moon orbits the earth." ”

Lying on the chaise longue, her thoughts wandering around, Claire fell asleep at some point.
