Chapter 46: Go to the palace to hide from the debt......
originally thought that by relying on alchemy, she would not only be able to easily pay off the debts she owed, but also be able to make a lot of money, but after listening to Sinampei's explanation, she had fallen from heaven to hell, and she was desperate all of a sudden.
"Three thousand livres has risen to twelve thousand livres," Theresa bit her lip ......, "I didn't even know about you borrowing money now." If I hadn't happened to run into you here today, I don't know how long you would have been hiding from me! Wouldn't it be nice if you had asked me to borrow money at that time? I would still be able to take out 3,000 livre. ”
"How can I be embarrassed about this......" Hilmeria's face was full of sadness, "although my family is now in decline, but I still have the title of earl, I am afraid that it will make people laugh at it if it spreads......"
"Then you won't make people laugh at it now?" Sinampei smiled bitterly, "If I were the Jacob who lent you money, and saw that you didn't pay for it, I'm afraid I would spread this news all over Pali." ”
"He dare!" Theresa was rarely angry, "even if Hilmelia's reputation will suffer, that Jacob will never be better, and I will not let the king let him go!
Theresa's flushed face is quite good-looking. Sinampe shrugged: "Now, Miss Shilmelia, is your creditor a Capetian citizen?"
"Since it is a trade with the Tuk, it is natural that the funds borrowed from the port of Saranyi. Shilmelia wiped her tears, "Those commercial republics will only cover up their own people, and they can't win a lawsuit at all." ”
Theresa was speechless.
"If you really can't do it, you will be on the account!" "Run!" Si Nanpei gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph, anyway, you don't have to say anything about the pickled guy who smells of copper!"
Shirmel Melia shook her head: "No, didn't I say it all, the church and the Wizards' Council have recognized the legitimacy of this debt, I can't escape, those guys are more capable than me." "If I don't pay the bill, I'm afraid the fellows will grab me, handcuff me and throw me into the Jacob's bed—he stared at me when I went to borrow money from him......"
Schill Melia is not the kind of boba-type figure, but she does not live up to her beautiful face, concave and backward, just right, just enough for some "gentlemen" who like certain parts to hold Cheng dù in one hand...... Sinampei coughed twice with difficulty.
"If you really can't do it, you can sell your fiefdom to pay off the debt. Sinampei had another bad idea.
When Hilmeria heard this, she lowered her head and said nothing, but continued to cry.
Theresa glared at Sinampei: "Her fiefdom is all in the hands of the Tuke people. Do you think those shrewd Jacobs would care about that?"
Over the centuries, the Rite Cult states, organized by the Church, have fought more than a dozen holy wars against the pagan states of the East, with the religious aim of fighting for the holy city of Jebus Salem, which means "City of Peace" on the eastern side of the Central Sea. In order to fight for the city, both sides tried their best to fight to the death, and at the most severe times, the corpses of pilgrims and soldiers from all over the city could be piled up around the city, and even the sea turned red, and rats and wild dogs gathered here, and the scene was indescribable. The Capetian kingdom was one of the most important participants in the crusade of the east, and when the strategic situation was dominant, a large number of nobles of the Capetian kingdom joined the knights to rush here, open up territories, and establish large and small states here.
However, for the two sides of the evenly matched, the Litian Sect country has an inherent disadvantage from afar, and the occupation of the area around the Holy City is difficult to last, as the enthusiasm for holy war wanes and the contradictions between the Litian Sect countries become more and more prominent, the heretics pull out these nails in the throat little by little, until the rise of the Tuks who migrated from the farther east, the Litian Sect countries have not been able to rebuild their territory here, and can only rely on the superiority of their navy to firmly occupy many small islands in the open sea.
Sinampei understands that Sylmeria's ancestors are probably also a member of those crusade nobles, since the former fief has been conquered by the infidels, then poor Sylmeria is left with an empty title to barely maintain her nobility, as for this empty title to pay off debts, I am afraid that no one will want to ask for it.
Since this is not good, then it is not good, it is not enough to let this unlucky girl who looks like Teresa's best friend really become a contract slave, right? Let's not talk about whether Sinampei, who is an earthman in the 21st century, can agree with such a thing, let's just say that from the current point of view, the face of the entire Capet Kingdom will be lost! If it is just an ordinary nobleman who goes bankrupt, it is fine, but if the descendants of the great nobles of the Eastern Crusade also fall to this point, it will really make everyone look bad on face.
"Shirmelia. Theresa stroked her hair and said, "Removing the assets that are still in Auvergne doesn't count, now I can help you pay five thousand livres, and the rest, can you raise some from the other nobles in Pali?"
As soon as she said this, Theresa realized the flaw in her words, and laughed and said no more—those nobles would not pay taxes to the king, and would they be willing to help the little girl?
Not really......
"Miss Shilmelia, if you can't do it, you can go to the palace to hide for a while in the name of casting cannons. I don't believe they had the courage to go to the palace to collect their debts. Theresa persuaded.
"Well, the cast cannon?" said Shilmelia's head was full of question marks.
"Hmm. Theresa nodded, "I haven't been introduced to you yet—oh, I haven't introduced you yet, this is Count Nampe Si from Seris, and now counts as my butler and court advisor to His Majesty the King." I'm here today to accompany him to visit Master Arue and recruit a group of students to join in the cannon casting work. Theresa was as stress-free as Sinampei - Sinampei couldn't remember when he became an advisor to the king, the uncle he had only a one-sided relationship with.
After hesitating for a while, Shirmel Melia choked up and said, "Now it's all about this." ”
Sinan Pei couldn't help but sigh, a penny can not only stump countless heroes, but even magicians can stump - it seems that although the magicians of Oggenia are magical, they are not at all as versatile as depicted in the online novel.
After a while, Shirmel wiped away her tears and smiled reluctantly, "Theresa, you're here to visit Master Arue? ”
