Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Tax Officer of the Viscount County [Ask for Recommendation Tickets and Collections!] 】
During Claire's impassioned speech, Robin listened carefully and shouted along with the crowd.
After the speech, Robin returned home and felt a little restless, always feeling a hot blood boiling in his body, which had been burning since Claire began to speak.
"What's wrong? It's been like this since you came back from a trip. Robin's wife, Linda, saw that her husband had something on her mind.
Robin glanced at his beautiful wife, gently clasped each other's hands, and said gently: "It's okay, maybe it's too hot today, a little hot." ”
"I don't know you yet." Linda clasped Robin's hands tightly, "I will support you in whatever you want to do, do you want to work for Lord Viscount, I also think he is quite good......"
"Don't say it, we said it before, we won't work for the nobles anymore." Robin interrupted his wife.
Linda was silent for a moment before replying, "Okay, I'll listen to you no matter what decision you make." ”
That night, Robin felt a fire burning in his heart, as if it was about to burn through his heart to the outside, and before going to bed, he remembered what Claire had said earlier.
"But it's unrealistic for me to do it alone...... I want you to join me in building this home, would you like to? ”
……
Robin suddenly woke up from his dream, and although he couldn't remember what kind of dream he had, he vaguely saw the figure of Lord Viscount in his dream, and at this moment he felt that he had to do something!
So he turned over.
"What's wrong?" Linda was also awakened.
Robin, on the other side, remained silent and spoke after a while.
"I'm going to the Viscount's Palace."
After saying that, he turned over and got up, took out his most decent clothes, put them on, opened the door and walked out.
"It's only four o'clock, and I can sleep a little longer......" Linda shouted from behind.
But Robin, who walked out of the house, couldn't hear it, and even if he did, he couldn't bear the choice in his heart at this moment, and the blood in his heart was completely burning at this moment, Robin felt that this would be the most correct choice he had ever made, no one!
……
"Young master, someone has come to apply for paperwork."
Claire had just stepped down from the sixth floor when she heard Reagan's words.
"Bring it over to see, and by the way, prepare a breakfast for others, and interview in the restaurant." With that, Claire went to wash up.
In the cafeteria, Robin, who sat down, looked at the food in front of him a little cramped, he was also a person who had seen the world, but he had never seen food like this, and the fragrance was still rushing to his nose, and his saliva was a little unstoppable.
But Claire hadn't come up yet, and he was too embarrassed to eat first, so he could only look at the delicious food on that table and swallow his saliva.
"Da-da-da-da."
Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Robin looked up, and immediately stood up the moment he saw Claire again.
"Lord Viscount Gui'an!"
Claire smiled back with a kind smile, "Sit down." ”
After the two parties took their seats, Claire looked at the dark circles under each other's eyes and asked first, "Your Excellency's face is not very good?" ”
Robin scratched his head in embarrassment, he squatted at the Viscount's door for two or three hours before waiting for Reagan to get up, "Thank you Lord Viscount for your concern, but it's okay, your speech yesterday was too exciting, and I couldn't sleep, so this caused my face to deteriorate." ”
"Uh-oh." Claire nodded, "Let's eat first, and talk while eating." ”
"Good...... Good! Robin looked a little nervous, but picked up the utensils and dealt with the food in front of him.
The moment the piece of meat enters your mouth, it is a delicious dish, much better than the food I have eaten before!
After quickly stuffing several pieces of meat into his mouth, Robin remembered what he had come here for.
straightened up and said with a serious face: "Lord Viscount, I am here to apply for the position of clerk in the announcement you issued earlier. ”
"Well, do you meet all the recruitment requirements above?" Claire asked.
"Of course, I can read and write, and not only can I do arithmetic, but I also used to be an accountant, so I should be able to meet the needs of the viscount."
Accounting? Claire's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that there was such a talent in Nafu City.
However, he didn't rush to agree, but asked rhetorically: "Since you meet the recruitment requirements of the paperwork, why don't you come for an interview when I just issued the recruitment paperwork?" ”
Robin was silent for a moment, reluctant to speak.
"It's okay, I'll just ask, it's okay if you don't say it." Claire Drive.
"No, it's just a little hard to speak." Robin explained: "I used to be an accountant in the county of Rikkin, and to be honest, our family lived there very well, not to mention the fine food and clothing, but it was much better than most people. But the Count of Rikkin repeatedly issued decrees calling for taxes, and many of the people in the territory died tragically, and I could not bear it, so I resigned from my position there and wandered all the way here. It was then that I swore that even if I starved to death, I would no longer serve any nobles. ”
"Then why did you suddenly change your mind? I'm also a nobleman in your mouth. ”
"Viscount, you're different." Robin's eyes lit up at the moment, "The first thing you did when you came back was to reduce taxes, and I was moved at that time, but I remembered the oath I had made, so I didn't come at that time." But yesterday your speech really hit me in the heart, you said that it is unrealistic to rely on you alone, and you need our help, and you asked us if we would like to help you.
I have thought about it for a long time, and it is true that as you said, it is very difficult to rely on you alone, so I am willing to be your help, as you said yesterday, to build our home together. ”
"Aren't you afraid that I'm just a nobleman who can only tell lies?" Claire squinted and smiled.
Robin became excited: "No, those high-ranking nobles don't even bother to lie to the people, but you are different, and after you return to the viscountdom, everyone's life has indeed changed for the better." I am Yuna's neighbor, and I heard her say when you didn't come just now, that you helped her heal her mother, and all these actions show that you are a good lord who truly loves her people like a son. ”
Claire smiled, stood up and walked in front of Robin, holding out her right hand.
Robin was in a trance, and also stretched out his right hand and shook it.
Claire whispered, "So... You're welcome to join us! Now I appoint you as the Tax Collector of the Viscounty of Griffin! ”
Robin was excited when he heard this, he originally just wanted to help Claire as a help, but he didn't expect to become a tax officer?!
Although he was shocked, he still subconsciously knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, Lord Viscount!" ”
Claire smiled, turned her head to look at Reagan, and said with a smile: "In this way, won't there be manpower?" He'll leave it to you, it's time to get to the magistrate. ”
As she spoke, a hint of red flashed in Claire's eyes, "Find out how much money he's greedy for!" ”
……
At night, five days after the last trade, Claire was lying on the chaise longue on the top floor as usual, looking out through the glass window at the blue moon.
Habitually opened the trading panel, which is a bit like the previous life, obviously there is nothing to do, just habitually open the mobile phone screen to see if anyone is looking for him.
However, unlike in the past, there has been a change in the trading panel this time, and the trading points that could only appear in a week have magically appeared at this moment.
Claire sat up from the recliner in shock, "The time interval has become shorter......"
"What's the reason?!" Claire's brain spun rapidly, "The only change during this period is that I have been promoted to an intermediate mage, and my mental power has increased greatly. Could it be that mental power is the key to condensing the trading point? I heard him say when he was trading exercises with Chen Han before, and he could only trade once a year. So maybe it's because his mental power is not strong enough that he will be separated for so long. ”
After thinking about it, Claire still can't tell if she's right, after all, there is too little information, but it's a good thing that the time interval between trading points has become shorter.
Claire didn't trade immediately, anyway, the time has become shorter, and she doesn't have any urgent need to trade at present, so she should wait until the next time to save to two trading points, and if you encounter something worth trading, you can also add friends.
