0101 Leak Pickup
The sorceress began to do her research in earnest, and she turned back into the cold woman she was.
As a son, Leonard is no longer surprised.
Even if her father came, she was mostly like this.
Hardy walked out, Leonard following closely.
After walking for a while, Leonard spoke: "You Jeanna family, this time you have made a lot of money, at least enough to eat for a hundred years." ”
Hardy laughed: "If it weren't for your greed and design traps first, how could it be like this." ”
"It's none of my business." Leonard shrugged: "Although I know, I don't have decision-making power, and I even have to speak quietly, so as not to be scolded for being ignorant." ”
Hardy couldn't help but laugh.
It does have the flavor of the feudal class.
"I heard that you got the city of Huroca, or are you a viscount?" Leonard asked again.
Hardy nodded.
"Otherwise, recruit me as a vassal."
Hardy was surprised, he turned his head to look at Leonard: "I'm just a viscount, at most a knight." ”
"I know. That's why I'm looking for you. I don't even have knighthood. ”
Don't even have the status of a knight?
Hardy turned his head to look at the other party: "Theoretically, you should be considered a prince." ”
"What's the use of having an empty title. Counting the illegitimate sons, my father had eight sons and ten daughters, and the fiefs and titles were not enough at all. Leonard sighed: "And I only have a small estate, no output, no army, a few gold coins a month, and I don't live as well as a wealthy merchant." ”
Sounds bitter.
But in fact, such a life is already at the top of the pyramid.
Although he has little money, it depends on who he compares, and there are not many people in the world whose quality of life is better than his.
He is a prince who has no army, but under normal circumstances, who dares to bully him!
The family also provides food and drink, and every month without work, they get a few gold coins for nothing, and there are servants to wait, what a life to enjoy.
Hardy only listened to someone moaning innocently.
He didn't pay any more attention to Leonard's complaints, and directly refused: "It's impossible for me to recruit a former enemy as my subordinate, otherwise I won't know what happened when I die one day." ”
"Don't say that." Leonard followed and said with a hippie smile, "Since I want to be your knight, I will naturally swear loyalty to you." ”
"Let's not talk about it." Hardy waved his hand and said, "Even if I dare to recruit you myself, it's useless, I have to take into account what the Jeanne family thinks of you, understand?" ”
Leonard sighed, "That's the same, it's a pity, I think it's more promising to follow you." ”
In fact, nobles often 'mix blood' with each other, as long as it is not a life-and-death feud, it is very common for the non-heirs of this family to run to another family as vassals.
Hardy just smiled at Leonard's flattery.
He is considered an 'outsider', and he has just obtained the 'fiefdom' of the Jeanne family, and before he has taken office, Leonard came to the door.
It is said that he wants to be a vassal, but it is difficult to say whether he is actually going to press a 'nail' in the city of Hukaro.
Hardy felt that if he really wanted to recruit the descendants of other nobles as vassals, he would have to wait until he really established himself in Hucaro City.
Now that the territory has not really been received, it is still too early to recruit knights and vassals.
The two parted at the door, and Hardy went to Princes' estate.
Because of her dead relationship, the estate is now in the process of changing hands.
Groups of servants were driven out, and a lot of miscellaneous items and underwear were thrown out.
After all, this world is also a bit particular about bad luck.
However, the aristocracy disliked it, but the poor people did not dislike it.
As soon as the small personal objects were thrown out, they were swarmed by the servants or civilians waiting nearby and snatched them.
For the aristocracy, these small things are small money, but for ordinary people, these small things can not only be used for their own use, but also sold for half a month, or a month's household expenses.
Hardy appeared in front of the manor, and the servants and civilians around him subconsciously ducked away.
No ordinary person wants to get too close to the aristocratic young people, they are a source of evil from time to time.
Hardy watched at the door, and soon a butler-like figure came out.
This is not Prince's butler.
He saw Hardy and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, Your Excellency, would you like to visit Lady Heather-Eckerd?" ”
"No, I'm just here to see some of my friend's relics." Hardy thought for a moment and said, "My name is Hardy, and I am good friends with the former owner of this manor, Prince. ”
The housekeeper was stunned at first, and then remembered who the person in front of him was.
Although he had never seen it, he could hear the name from the mouths of big people from time to time.
"Lord Hardy, it is a great honor to meet you, and if you would like to visit this estate, allow me to leave for a while and inquire of Lady Querry Eckerd."
"It doesn't have to be that much trouble." Hardy pointed to the many boxes and bookshelves that had been thrown out: "Don't you all want those things?" ”
The middle-aged butler looked at the place pointed by Hardy and showed an embarrassed look: "That's what the owner asked to throw away, it's not worth much." ”
"But those were Printhius's favorite books when he was alive, so it's not good to throw them away."
The butler laughed even more awkwardly.
In front of a nobleman, it is indeed a mistake to throw away his friend's things like garbage.
Hardy sighed and said, "Otherwise, I'll buy these things, okay?" ”
"I'll have to go and inform my master about this."
"No problem."
The butler immediately went upstairs.
And then it came down again very quickly.
"The master agreed, but you need to pay a small price, after all, this is the master's sister's thing, and she has the best relationship with her sister."
Best?
If it was really the best sisterhood, would you throw away all these books that Principus regarded as life?
"Fifty gold coins?" Hardy asked.
The butler rubbed his hands together and said cautiously, "This does not meet the master's expectations. ”
"A hundred." Hardy thought for a moment and said, "Although Principis is indeed my good friend, I don't think it's worth it to exceed this number." ”
"Thank you for your generosity." The housekeeper smiled happily.
"Then you wait." Hardy spoke as he turned to leave, "I'll go back and bring some people to help move things." ”
Then more than half an hour later, more than a hundred soldiers came.
All of them are murderous, and they almost scared the housekeeper to pee.
A small heavy box was placed on the ground, and Hardy looked at the mountains of books in the manor, and his heart ached.
These are the crystallization of human civilization.
It's just that he can't show too much emotion, lest he be raised by the owner here.
Soon, more than 100 people emptied the hill of books and moved them back to Jeanne's estate.
Because there were so many books, even Mrs. Sissi stopped what they were doing and came over to see the strangeness.
"Love books so much?" Mrs. Sissi thought for a moment and said to the housekeeper next to her, "Give him the books from our Rangna family." ”
