Episode 773 The Group of True Evil (6)
Around the time when Rei was building the company.
Heukyoung and Soyoung were talking while looking at the roaring upper deck.
“Hey, it rides well.”
“It’s self-sufficient.”
Dark Young just recalled the previous situation.
Soyoung entered the meeting room at the top of the button and asked for a conversation with the pig-like merchant.
But isn’t this guy drooling over So-young’s body?
‘There are eyes that see children’, he told her to become his pet, and eventually the Boten Merchants Corps was destroyed by her extremely angry hands.
“By the way, I never thought that pig-like bastard would try to attack Cerian Firm.”
In the confidential documents he saw while burning the guild, there was also a plot to completely destroy the Cerian Company.
I’m not sure why he’s trying to attack the Sangho, where nothing comes out even if he tries to confide in it.
For those who didn’t know how much the Serian Corporation had grown in just a few days, the behavior of the Boton Merchant Company was incomprehensible.
Soyoung wiped her hands.
“Then let’s go right away.”
“I will.”
There are two places left.
The news that the Boton Merchant Corps was destroyed overnight reached the Cerian Manor.
* * *
The collapse of the biggest corps in the Boten Territory eventually led to the benefit of the Serian Company.
Even though the number of merchants was not enough for the trading volume, the number of merchants was almost tripled due to the absence of the top of the button.
Enthralled by his piercing ability to control the upper world at will, Renus has now almost become Ray’s henchman.
What used to be called a ‘customer’ became a ‘hoeju’ before I knew it, and after a while, it changed to an attitude as if I was treating a king of a country.
“The top of the button collapsed. If you want to seize your chance, now is the time.”
“Know. Hehehe.”
This made things easy.
When I was struggling with how to get rid of those giant corps, they disappeared on their own.
It’s strange that it went bankrupt so suddenly, but I don’t have time to think about it right now.
The vacant house robbing starts now.
“Don’t choose a merchant, choose more! If you have arms and legs, give me a spear and hire me as a guide!”
“All right!”
Thanks to that, only the people at Cerian Trading Company got busier.
* * *
A small territory belonging to the vassals under the command of Count Cerian, belonging to the most remote area among the frontiers.
It was already in a festive mood.
“Finally, today is the tax day. There’s no way a countess’ lady could pay such a huge amount.”
“It is not the noble duty to have that young lady shoulder all the burdens in the first place.”
“ha ha ha. Now that the territory has been dedicated instead of tax, all that remains is for us to decide how to divide the land among ourselves.”
When toasting in a friendly atmosphere.
A knight who appeared to be an attendant approached and whispered something to the older vassal.
When I handed over a letter he was holding, the old man dropped the wine glass he was holding in his hand.
Clink-!
“What is it? A banquet invitation? You mean a banquet at the count’s house right now! What happened to that large amount of tax!”
“It seems that everything has been reimbursed.”
The expressions of the vassals around them hardened at the conversation between the two.
“What do you mean by that, sir?”
“Please listen carefully.”
However, their words did not reach the old man who was called Il-Gashin.
“It can’t be! That’s why it doesn’t work!”
The appearance of shouting into the air and grabbing his head in a state of dismay doesn’t look normal, even if you look at it well.
He shouted as he gnashed his teeth.
“Prepare the wagon! I need to meet my little bitch!”
“God of work!”
“Ride the light too!”
It shouldn’t be like this. It can’t be like this.
I didn’t even think about changing into a banquet dress, and the vassal bit his nails.
Apparently, the sky was not on their side.
* * *
While Serian Trading is growing in size day by day.
Thinking that he had some time to spare, Ray returned to the count’s mansion after a long absence.
The count’s house was no longer the shabby mansion of the past.
The barn, which looked like it was in need of repairs, has been tidied up.
Is that all?
The number of servants increased, and the manor became lively.
The reason the trees are in good condition is probably thanks to the hiring of a gardener.
The Countess, who had been babbling before, was nowhere to be found anymore.
“The divine water has become clear.”
“I was waiting.”
A thin voice was heard.
blue dress.
Levia’s appearance, not wearing half-plate armor, felt quite strange.
It seems that it is not only the mansion that has changed.
“I heard that the clothes are wings, but I don’t know.”
“Can I take that as a compliment?”
“Of course.”
“Whoops. thank you It’s all thanks to you.”
Her tone of voice, which had been a bit stiff until now, has softened considerably.
Is it because I got out of the hardships of life?
If not, is it because he has erased his vigilance?
Ray let out a deep sigh and cleared his exhausted teeth.
“I am tired of chores now. If there is a business meeting, the Count’s family is also relieved, so I’d like to leave soon…”
“You sound sad. If you’re tired, it’s time to relax. I was thinking of making a separate building for you to live in at this time.”
Uncharacteristically for her, Levia opened her eyes and came closer.
said Ray, pushing her away.
“What is a building? Don’t go on a spree because you have money, but focus on developing your territory. Because the upper house won’t always be a good thing.”
“I understand. But today will be an exception.”
“exception?”
At Ray’s question, Levia nodded.
“We will have a banquet.”
“It’s a banquet of the nobility of the periphery.”
Who will come? As I muttered with such a question in mind, she replied.
“So we need to scale it up so that everyone knows about it.”
That means you’re going to spend your money like a fire.
Ray looked at her and said.
“In short, I’m trying to show that the count family is still alive and well.”
If the count’s family, who could not even pay taxes and had to give up their titles, held a luxurious banquet proudly, even nobles would not dare to look down on them.
If this amount of banquet can be checked, it means that the maximum efficiency can be achieved with a small amount of money.
Seeing him muttering, ‘It’s not bad’, Levia was quite surprised.
‘You mean you thought that far in an instant?’
To be honest, it was a crazy idea.
It’s normal for a normal person to get angry when he says he’s going to spend his hard-earned money on a banquet.
But instead of getting angry, he went a step further and said many things.
At first, she listened dumbfounded, but gradually fell in love with his words.
By the end of the story, Levia was shaking her head.
“indeed.”
“If you say the picky guys of the count family, they are vassals.”
“yes. The invitation has been sent.”
“It’s nice to be able to organize things at this point. I was lucky.”
The timing was right.
The timing is good, as well as the timing of tax repayment, as the vassals who have heard about the banquet will be outraged by now.
If you’re good at it, you might be able to knock it off in one go.
“It’s a chance for the county to survive. Good luck.”
chance to survive.
It’s a heartbreaking story just to hear.
Levia suddenly straightened her clothes.
Then, with her mouth firmly shut, she covered her chest and bowed her head deeply.
“Serian von Levia expresses his gratitude to his benefactor. The count’s family was able to see today thanks to the benefactor’s presence. There is no way to repay the favor like Hahae, so I only resent my own immorality.”
If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have had a proper conversation with my father.
Or, he may have violated the heavenly rules because he could not tolerate the situation.
He could take care of his family and the count’s family would never stand up.
He literally saved the count’s family from falling apart and the perilous Cerian spirit.
She bowed her head like that, not knowing how to control the warm feeling spreading in her chest.
Ray smiled and greeted him happily.
“I’ll be looking forward to it, Count Cerian.”
* * *
The sun rises in the middle of the sky and slowly sets.
As the beautiful scarlet sunset began to set, the carriages of nobles entered the count’s mansion one by one.
There are many more than I thought.
This was probably because they gathered because they were purely curious about how the Count Cerian family, which they thought would perish, was still alive, rather than because Levia was highly popular.
Originally, the vassals, who should have been given the position of nobles at the entrance, have not yet appeared.
Ray sat in the garden and yawned.
“I see a familiar face. How are you? How many rings does that lady have?”
Even if I sold all the accessories on my fingers, I would still buy a decent mansion.
While the aristocrats clad in luxurious items chatted hahahaha, the face they had seen the most recently appeared.
He came to the garden and greeted Ray first before approaching the other nobles.
“Hoe Lord.”
“Oh well. Please don’t make any noise. Anyone who hears it will know that I am the owner of the store.”
“haha. It’s sad between us. Besides, isn’t the real owner the Lord Hoe?”
Renus, the owner of Cerian Firm.
Dressed in a tailcoat with neatly trimmed hair, he was well-groomed enough to be considered a model for middle-aged people.
“You’ve come all the way to the banquet, but you still don’t take off your robe. I think a lot of noble ladies came, too.”
“I didn’t come here specifically to enjoy a banquet.”
“haha. It’s a pity that you only give specifications at such a young age. If you just tell me, I will prepare the clothes right away.”
“it’s okay. For me, this is the most comfortable.”
“All right. I don’t recommend any more. But don’t just stay in the garden, show your face at least once. I would like to introduce Hoeju to others.”
The introduction sucks.
If I sold my face for no reason, it would be like promoting ‘I’m here’ to Heukbang.
After sending Renus away saying he would take his heart, Ray shook his butt off and got up as the nobles began to gather.
“Youngcha. Then it’s about time.”
It’s time to bring back the family heirloom of Count Cerian.
