The meeting, which had officially started after breakfast, continued until near noon, and Leon couldn't help but be amazed when he realized that the meeting had lasted more than three hours, and suddenly realized that it was understandable that sometimes meetings were too long, and of course, this did not include those meetings that were full of meaningless topics.

The rest of the content involves the more core parts, so Leon asked the mercenary captains to leave the scene early, and the four men, including Kubi, whispered to each other as they walked out of the office area.

Arguments are not complaining because they are excluded from the core content, they are excited. Although these mercenary captains are vulgar, they are not stupid people, and even a slightly stupid person will not sit in their current position at all.

It would be impossible for any of them to sit for three hours in a normal way, but they did it just now, and they didn't move much from beginning to end, all of them were listening intently to the conversation between the lord and the "big guys", although they didn't know much about it, but this was not the point, the point was that the lord's attitude of allowing them to sit in front of everyone was equivalent to admitting their identities in front of everyone

This means that they are about to become the exclusive soldiers of the lord, oh no! the matter of the exclusive captain is already a foregone conclusion! How can this not make the mercenary captains excited?

When their figures were far away, Leon looked at the nine people in front of him, including Sophia, who left the field early, these people can be regarded as the core figures of the team, but ...... Wait, it seems like there's something missing in the venue?

When Leon looked up, he found that the person on the box was gone.

He obviously took a special look before he blinked an eye, and Clement just sat there looking at the book in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared without even feeling a trace of power fluctuations.

“...... It seems that this old gentleman is not particularly uninteresting, right?" Li Ang thought silently, presumably because Clement saw that some of the topics involving Campbell should be more in-depth, so he left the scene early to show his "innocence".

Leon was only stunned for a moment before deciding not to pay attention to the elusive head of the observer, no matter where he went, anyway, now out of sight.

Among the rest of the people, the veteran Jack's body had not yet recovered, and his severe disability was indeed a little unbearable after three hours of upright sitting, so under the advice of Leon, Jack apologized to the others, and then left the venue on crutches in a near-standard posture.

Then the young lord grabbed his hair and glanced at Erin, "Didn't you want to study the books you brought back recently? ”

Erin understood, knowing that Leon wanted her to hurry up and ask more questions while Clement was staying in the manor, and at the same time didn't want to reveal Clement's identity and the agreement she had reached with him, so she gave her a look back, stood up and said, "Okay, then I won't be involved in the following topics, see you later." ”

With that, the mage girl turned around and calmly walked away from everyone's sight.

The others didn't feel anything, but Jeff and Eric were a little surprised, the lord was trying to avoid this girl in some things, could it be that they went out on a trip to change their lives? But when they found out that Erin and Leon had "eyebrows" between the two before leaving, the two of them looked at each other with strange eyes, and they both felt a lot more at ease.

But when Jeff turned his attention back, he found that the lord was staring at him with a frown, and he was startled, and immediately said, "My lord, do you want to complete the sketch now?"

Leon didn't bother to take care of the boring middle-aged manager, so he snorted in his nose before he took the sketch in front of Jeff and spread it out on the entire table.

This is a drawing that is almost the size of a tabletop when it is spread out, and there are only a few sparse and sparse drawings on it, and Li Ang recognized it, and found that the location of the manor only occupies the center position, and there is still about two-thirds of the blank space on the periphery.

He thought for a moment, held out a hand, and said to Jeff, "Give me the pen." ”

The middle-aged manager immediately handed over his quill, Li Ang took it in his hand and shook it, found a piece of waste paper and smeared it a few times, and suddenly asked, "Is it so difficult to use?"

Jeff's face flushed, "The price of a good pen can buy dozens of such quill pens, so ......"

"So you want to save a pen?" said with a smile, "But maybe you can buy thousands of pens for that meal in the morning, right?"

"That's different!" Jeff scowled, "Eating is the most important thing, especially since you often go out to fight, and I, as the steward and gourmet, must ensure everyone's nutrition!"

This sentence was reasonable, and he didn't even have anything to say about the lord who wanted to tease Jeff, so he nodded and admitted the other party's statement. However, Leon remembers that when he handed over the task of building the manor to Jeff, he left a sum of money at the same time, so he immediately asked, "What?

Jeff shrugged his shoulders, "You left tens of thousands of gold coins, but until now, you haven't even seen the shadow of the manor's construction, it has cost nearly a tenth, I calculated, if the stalls are really all rolled out, these funds are estimated to be enough for a month or two." ”

He took out another notebook, flipped to the first page, and said, "Now the livestock on the farm are all purchased from the towns and the best breeds that can be bought at present, including cattle, sheep, pigs, and chickens...... and so on, a total of 1,265 gold coins, including ......"

"Stop, stop!" Li Ang waved his hand, "Stop, you don't have to report these things to me." ”

Jeff closed the notebook and said, "This is the cost that has already been spent, in addition to the construction cost of the manor and the trade area, I have also inquired about the equipment of those recruits, if we don't have a good blacksmith and enchanter, it is not cheap to buy the finished product directly." And the complete set of magic equipment is divided into many grades, the lowest set of complete equipment, including weapons, at least several thousand gold coins, you see that there are so many places to spend money, and now you can't save it. ”

"I see," Leon said with a smile as he leaned back in his chair, "and there are a lot of places to spend money, but there is no need to be so economical. ”

"Jeff, remember that money is not saved, it is earned. And there are many ways to make money, so you and all of you don't have to worry about this problem, just leave it to me. ”

The overall cost of the territory was a staggering figure, something Leon had considered during his conversation with Clement last night. But there is one point, although Li Ang is not a person who is greedy for enjoyment, but he also does not want to experience a hard and simple life when he has the ability to enjoy something, which is not only unnecessary, but simply masochistic.

And he doesn't want to worry about these companions who have been following him because of financial problems, so he often finds various excuses to give his companions different amounts of gold coins, otherwise it is estimated that with a character like Caterina and Melissa, he will definitely not accept it.

And since he said this, Li Ang simply expressed his attitude in front of everyone - I have the ability to make money, and everyone can enjoy it with confidence. As for the fact that Campbell does not have a commercial area where consumption can be consumed...... It's okay to have money saved, isn't it?

"Hmph!" The alchemy master who had been silent on the opposite side suddenly snorted coldly, which immediately startled the generous apprentice, fortunately, the lord's biggest creditor only expressed his attitude with the word "hum", and did not directly collect debts in front of everyone for the time being, otherwise Li Ang would really break out in a cold sweat.

"Alright, alright!" the young lord's expression changed, and he said sternly, "I still have a little understanding of Campbell's topography, and I will mark some important places on the sketch map next, so please don't bother!"
