"Big brother early!" Melly walked in from the Viscount's Mansion with her schoolbag on her back.

Claire then took her eyes off the magic book in front of her in a trance and looked at Melly, who had been living in the school since the school opened, and Claire hadn't seen her for a long time.

A smile appeared: "School's out?" ”

Melly ran to Claire's side and nodded vigorously, "Hmm! It's the weekend, and school is out! ”

Claire sat up from the recliner and rubbed Melly's little head, messing up her hair.

"And what did you learn in school?"

Melly broke free of Claire's clutches and shook her head like a watery kitten, pulling her hair back with both hands.

"I've learned a lot, and now I've learned addition and subtraction." Melly said proudly.

"Then I'll test you a question!"

"Just say, Melly will definitely answer!" Melly's eyes flashed with confidence.

"If you have three apples, but you have four children in front of you, how do you divide them so that they don't hold a grudge against you?"

"Shhh Melly bit her fingers, confused as she was beyond his knowledge.

"This is multiplication and division, the teacher said it will be taught next week! Melly doesn't know yet, big brother tell me the answer. ”

Claire closed the spellbook, "If it were me, I would eat the two apples, then take out the only one that was left, and tell them: Whoever of you wins, this apple will be his!" ”

Melly tilted her head, her head full of question marks: ??????

Hesitant: "Is this multiplication and division?" ”

Claire took the opportunity to grab her little head and ravage it, "I'm talking to you about fun, don't learn blindly, go play." ”

Melly was still confused, but she still put her schoolbag on the desk next to Claire, "Put the schoolbag here first, I'm going to mop the floor!" ”

Claire stopped her, "Finally take a vacation, aren't you going home?" You don't need to clean the house. ”

"No, Grandpa Reagan said that I am a little maid, and when I grow up, I will come to the Viscount's Mansion to apply, and I can't slack off in my work. And my brother will be coming to pick me up soon! ”

Claire didn't stop the other party, the little work of mopping the floor shouldn't be tiring her, and then picked up the magic book and read it.

After a while, there was the sound of horses' hooves clattering outside the door, and Claire's attention was drawn again.

"Lord Viscount!" The other party greeted first.

Claire then realized that it was Melly's brother Crane, who was still a sunny boy as before, and nodded, "Are you here to take my sister home?" ”

Crane scratched his head embarrassedly, quickly dismounted, and trotted over.

"Yes, today is the day to go home to visit relatives, and the barracks are all on holiday." Crane explained, "The horses were ridden by the captain for those of us who came home. ”

Claire understood what the other party meant, and waved her hand, "It's okay, ride back faster, this is the ......" Claire said and looked at what Crane was carrying.

Crane hurriedly brought it up and showed it, "This is the piece of meat and some food I bought in the market with the money I sent down, this is my first time as a knight and I have come home, so I want to buy something delicious to go back." Crane felt a little embarrassed, like a beggar showing off how good he was doing now.

"That's good, isn't that what you want!" Claire encouraged.

"Uh-huh!" Crane nodded vigorously, he never thought that the man he had met that day would change his fate.

"Go and call Melly out."

"Good! Goodbye, Lord Viscount! ”

After Melly wiped the floor clean, she came back and picked up her bag and sat on the horse, and Crane hugged her from behind without falling off.

"Big brother goodbye!" Melly waved her hands vigorously at Claire.

Claire smiled and waved goodbye.

After Melly left, Claire hadn't read a few pages of the book when another figure stepped out of the Viscount's Mansion to draw his attention.

"Where is Yuna going?" Claire simply put the magic book on the stone table beside her.

"Today is the end of the month, it's my turn to rest, I've already made lunch, young master, I'll go home, and I'll be back when dinner comes in the evening!" Yuna also had a big smile on her face.

In her hand, she clutched the twenty-five silver coins that Reagan had given them today, the money she was going to take back to her mother, and the four silver coins that had been recruited at the beginning had skyrocketed to twenty-five silver coins in less than a month.

She earns more than her father, and this time she can tell her father that he doesn't have to do such a dangerous job as sea fishing in the future! In this way, she can spend more time with her mother at home, and every time she thinks of this, Yuna is excited that she can finally do something for her family.

"Go ahead." Claire smiled and waved her hand as well.

……

After Yuna left, Claire didn't have the heart to continue reading, so she directly put the magic book into the space ring, got up from the chaise longue and stretched.

"It's all gone, I'll go out for a walk."

Claire called the wolf king, and after these days of training, it has become a lot more obedient, and Claire hurriedly ran over as soon as she shouted.

Leaning on the back of the wolf king, Claire had just walked out of the gate of the Viscount's Mansion when she was stopped by a voice.

"Viscount, wait a minute!"

Claire immediately got up and looked over, and the one who shouted was a very familiar woman.

Although the man was a little afraid of the huge wolf king, he overcame his fear and trotted all the way to Claire.

When I got closer to Claire, I remembered, "You were the ...... in the market yesterday."

"Yes!" The woman nodded vigorously, she didn't expect Claire to remember herself.

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

"Give these three gold coins back to you!" As he spoke, he shoved the three gold coins back into Claire's hand.

Claire was a little stunned, "These three gold coins are nothing to me, you just have to take them." ”

Unexpectedly, the woman shook her head vigorously, "Yesterday when I got these three gold coins, my heart has been pounding, and then I thought about it for a while, I can't take this money, although the money is very helpful to me, I am a little embarrassed to say in my heart, but I am afraid that I will not continue to work hard after I take it." ”

Saying that, a smile spread on the woman's face, "Besides, after the Viscount came to me to buy things yesterday, many people also came to me to buy things, and soon sold all the things, and today I have also sold out the things I picked from outside, and I am waiting for you here early in the morning, so that I can return these three gold coins to you." ”

Claire looked at the other party's sincere eyes and didn't seem to be lying, so she took the three gold coins back.

"Is the market doing well?"

"Excellent! Thank you, Lord Viscount! As soon as she spoke of the woman, she became excited, and took out three silver coins from her bosom, "I have sold things for two days, and there could not have been so many before." ”

"Thank you! Thank you! Just saying words of thanks, the woman shed tears, took out a piece of brown sugar and choked up: "I can finally buy my children brown sugar that everyone else can eat, they are very sensible, and they will never tell me that they like to eat this kind of thing, but how can children not like to eat sugar, they can only swallow saliva next to others when they eat it......"

Claire took a deep breath, "If you have time, you can go and ask Reagan how to rent out the shops in the East Side." ”

Claire doesn't know if she can understand it, anyway, she has already clicked on this, and it depends on whether the other party can understand it.

Next, Claire plans to vigorously develop the trade area in the East End, and most of the shops in her hands will be turned into wholesalers, specializing in buying goods from outside and selling them to local merchants at low prices, and then renting out the shops there for free for the first three months, and vigorously encouraging the private sector.

This is almost equivalent to the policy of reform and opening up in the nineties in the previous life, as long as you follow the general trend, you will definitely be able to make money, so that sentence also gave the woman a chance to make a fortune. But it's also an opportunity for everyone in the whole of Nafu to get rich, and it's up to some of them to take advantage of it.

Nowadays, almost all of the people in the city are poor, and it will not play a role in promoting the development of the city, and it must first create a group of middle classes, such as merchants and special technicians, and Clare's eastern trade district is one of the strategies.

I don't know if the other party understood, so I thanked him again and again and left the Viscount's Mansion.

Looking at the other party's back, Claire couldn't help but sigh: "Although there are some achievements, there is still a long way to go." ”
