Aarons asked Karin to take the children of the orphanage and the couple of managers back to the Marquis' Mansion, and he turned around and went to the shopping street again.
Now that he had some money in hand, the family would soon have a lot of people, so Aarons decided to buy some furniture first, so that the Marquis' Mansion could at least accommodate dozens of people.
"Oh, this kind of thing actually has to be done by me personally, it's really frustrating."
Although he said so, Aarons immediately returned to his petty bourgeois nature in his previous life after arriving at the shopping street - no matter whether he bought a bed or a cabinet, he would bargain with the store owner for several rounds before reluctantly paying.
"What? You don't care about delivering it to your door? Are you planning to let me drag this cabinet home by myself? No!"
"Stop it, young master! We'll send it to you right away!"
"Little boy over there, give me a copy of those newspapers, both the Empire Weekly and the Moti Leader Tabloid."
The Armand Empire issues a newspaper to the whole country every week, which mostly contains reports praising the royal family or commending outstanding talents, without much meaningful content.
Although ordinary people generally do not subscribe to such official newspapers, for nobles, this is an important channel to guess the intentions of the royal family.
Of course, Aarons also knows this. After all, the official news that he paid attention to in his previous life often hinted at the direction of policies.
"Although the air crash was reported, it said that the identity of the victims has not been found out? The investigation will take a month... Is this my deadline?"
Aarons' guess was not wrong. The empire has indeed given him a chance to prove his ability.
If he can make some achievements in this month, then the empire may allow him to inherit the title of marquis. But the problem is that he can't control this territory at all at present.
In the tabloid published by the Marquisate itself, some reports with unknown credibility claimed that several towns outside the territory have begun to operate independently and have hired mercenaries to ensure safety.
These places seem to be planning to take advantage of the opportunity to build their own troops. Even if the possibility of seceding from the empire and becoming independent is very small, they can bargain with the next lord later.
"You really think you can do whatever you want because the emperor is far away, you idiots."
Aarons, who was so angry that he almost laughed out loud, threw the newspaper he had read directly into the trash can on the side of the road.
He has none of the advantages of time, place and people now, so he can only take one step at a time.
"...Who!"
As Karin said before, it seemed that someone was spying on him in the dark from just now. But Aarons turned his head suddenly and didn't see any suspicious figures.
This feeling is really not good, so Aarons decided to go home quickly and make arrangements at home in advance.
...
"Young Master, why did you bring back so many people?"
As soon as he entered the courtyard of the Marquis's Mansion, the old gardener came to greet him anxiously.
"I went to the orphanage, where the housekeeper had been tossing and turning. I thought that since no one lives in this house now, I let them all come."
"Oh, young master, you are so kind... Let the wolf girl move in all the furniture that was just delivered, but you have to debug some of the spiritual tools yourself. The old servant and the girl don't understand them very well..."
-The so-called spiritual tools are actually the electrical appliances that Aarons used to use in his previous life.
Because these things use the spiritual power released by the magic source stone to drive magic to work, everyone habitually calls them spiritual tools.
When Aarons saw those spiritual tools whose appearance and functions were almost the same as the telephones and televisions in his previous life, his fantasy about this other world was shattered again.
It seems that his little scientific knowledge is really useless.
"Wow, isn't this like something?"
After walking to the restaurant on the first floor of the Marquis's mansion, Aarons saw the children who had been sent from the orphanage sitting on both sides of the long table and chattering about something.
The couple in charge of the children were cleaning the room at this time, and when they saw Aarons, they immediately put down their tools and knelt down.
"Master Aarons, thank you for your kindness..."
"No need to salute me, get up, I'm not used to people kneeling to talk to me."
After seeing this scene, the children quickly quieted down. Most of these orphans, who were only five to ten years old, didn't actually understand what was going on.
"The children will be able to eat well and sleep well in the future, thanks to you."
"...Don't thank me, I'm just making up for the mistakes my family made."
The original intention of the Marquis to establish an orphanage may be good, but some evil people took advantage of it.His kindness was used to enrich himself and hurt these children.
Aarons just felt that since he was a member of the Marquis's family, he had to take this responsibility.
"My husband and I will definitely take good care of the children and try not to cause trouble for your house."
"But young master, the child named Els who almost offended you just now... may not listen to us."
Boys of that age are indeed not very obedient, and Aarons, who has experience in his previous life, understands this very well.
"I don't know what he did just now, and he provoked Miss Wolf in your family... and then he was taken to the backyard."
"What? I'll go and see now."
Although Aarons didn't mind the rebellious child, Karin might not show mercy to him. The child was almost injured by Karin before, and now that he was not there, someone might really die.
Aarons didn't want to live in a haunted house where someone had died, so he ran to the backyard immediately.
"...No! We have to leave here! If the noble young master sees Xiaomei, he will definitely do something terrible!"
As soon as he entered the backyard, Aarons heard the boy's screaming. He quickly approached the source of the sound, but found that a black-haired girl of the same age as him was hiding behind the boy.
"What are you talking about, kid! Even if the young master has that kind of idea, he will come to me first!"
Originally, Aarons wanted to hide and see what was going on, but after hearing Karin's somewhat bad speech, he could only bite the bullet and break into the confrontation.
"What are you doing! You are going to cause trouble again when this young master is not here, right?"
"Young, young master? You are back."
"What's the situation with those two little ghosts? What are you planning to do in this young master's house?"
Looking at the boy who was very scared but still stood up to protect the girl, Aarons roughly guessed what was going on.
Youth is so good... No, I didn't catch any girls when I was this age in my previous life!
"They are the two oldest children in the orphanage. They just told me that they want to leave here together. They would rather starve to death outside than accept your protection."
In order not to delay the business, this young master dare not even look at the beautiful girl next to him. You want to act out the drama of childhood sweethearts flying together for love, right?
——The eldest young master who has a lot of experience in being single in two lives was angry.
