Traveling to another world, inheriting a mess at the beginning

After finding out that the imperial capital was not safe, Aarons immediately left this dangerous and prosperous place with two beautiful attendants.

Fortunately, the man who wanted to murder him did not have the confidence to cause another plane crash, so Aarons returned to the border marquisate safely on the airship.

However, when he stepped into Moti City again, a bunch of unresolved key problems finally appeared in front of him again - no money, no people, no plan.

"How much money do we have left?"

"One gold coin, thirty-four silver coins. Even if we don't want this month's salary, you can only support it for one month at most."

Although Xia Ye was still expressionless as always, Aarons felt that her voice sounded unusually cold at this time.

- If he couldn't think of a way to turn things around, he would really have to be a stake for the rest of his life.

"There should be some monsters that escaped from the last beast tide nearby, right? I have experience in hunting monsters, and I can help you kill a few and sell them for money."

Karin's suggestion can indeed solve the urgent problem, but the fur and flesh of low-level monsters are not particularly valuable.

Even if it is a complete fourth-level monster, if there is no crystal core in its body, the materials of the whole body can only be sold for one gold coin at most.

"That's the only way for now... please."

"Hehe, just give some compensation at night."

Looking at the brown-skinned and golden-eyed wolf girl licking her lips and showing a charming smile, Aarons couldn't help but shudder.

This is free... but it's deadly!

"But according to my estimation, even if Miss Karin can help you earn ten silver coins every day, you can only maintain the current situation for about two months at most."

Monsters are not the kind of monsters in the game that will refresh after being killed. Although there were indeed many of them during the beast tide, most of them have been cleared by the border defense corps and hunters.

Even if Karin could hunt every day, it would be difficult to make up for the daily expenses of Aarons' family.

"There is no other way. I'd better go to the city office to ask about the situation. Xia Ye, come with me."

"You finally understand that your personal safety is very important, which is very good."

"Yes, I don't want to die so early."

The emperor has not officially decided on the ownership of the Marquisate, and the Marquisate is still the lord in name for the time being. However, once the official edict is issued, the city office may have to remain neutral.

So Aarons must take this opportunity to get more help for himself.

...

After walking into the city office with Xia Ye, Aarons found that there seemed to be some changes here.

There seemed to be more staff in the city office-but it was not an increase in formal staff, but it seemed that there were many volunteers helping.

"You're back, Master Aarons."

"There are so many people here, have you recruited new people recently?"

Because he saw Director Chen in the hall, Aarons started talking to him here directly.

But the other people present seemed to turn their attention to them at this time, which made Aarons a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Because the mine needs a lot of manpower, we specially recruited some volunteers. But there were unexpectedly many applicants, so I asked those who were not selected to help here."

"Wow, there are indeed a lot of people."

Although he thought that the people around him were just curious about why he came here, after Aarons looked around, he found that the people working here seemed familiar.

And there was no contempt in the eyes of these people that he often saw outside, but more admiration and respect.

"But Director Chen, I came here this time because I have some private matters to discuss with you."

"Then let's go upstairs and talk in detail. Everyone, continue to work. I'll tell you if there's anything."

Under the subtle gazes of the crowd, Aarons took Xia Ye up the stairs. Although he was a little curious about what was going on with the people here, Aarons still talked about business first.

"I went to see the emperor, but--"

After briefly describing what he saw and heard in the imperial capital to Director Chen, Aarons also re-sorted out the current situation.

The emperor did not finally decide on the ownership of this territory, so he still had a short period of preparation time before the edict was issued. During this time, he had to at least get some resources to start with.

Although he had two powerful beautiful attendants, this state of drawing good cards at the beginning but without resources to cultivate them would also feel quite difficult when he played games in his previous life.

"In addition, the deaths of my father and brother are also--"

And the enemies in the imperial capital assassinated recklessly,He had to be alert.

Since the other party dared to hire someone to commit the crime directly in the imperial capital, even if he hid in this border city, he could not guarantee that he would not encounter the assassin who accepted the commission to assassinate him.

He was too weak - even with the protection of Karin and Xia Ye, he could not guarantee that he would be safe.

"This... I really didn't expect this result."

After listening to Aarons's narration, the old subordinate of the Marquis was speechless for a while.

The future of the territory is still unclear, and Aarons himself may be assassinated at any time. Even if he wanted to help the Marquis's family revive, the director of the city office felt that he had no idea where to start.

"We can allocate a part of the start-up capital you lack from the profits of the mine. After all, it is the industry you conquered, and it is not appropriate to give it all to us."

"Alas, although I wanted to give it all to you before, now... I can only break my promise for the time being."

This is indeed a very embarrassing thing, but Aarons's face in his previous life is not that thin.

At this critical moment, face is not as valuable as real gold coins.

"You just said that His Majesty and His Excellency Wushen both suggested that you marry into a certain family? If so, I guess you may have a chance to take back this territory later."

"They did say so, and it can be regarded as a hint."

Because the Marquis's family has almost nothing left now, if Aarons wants to turn things around, the best way is to use the method of marrying into a family in exchange for some disposable resources.

The Marquis's territory is large and has abundant resources. Even if most of the feudal nobles look down on him as an incompetent without talent and strength, there may be someone among the honorary nobles who wants to borrow his name.

"I understand. I will use my connections to help you find a suitable marriage partner. When the official edict comes down, you can come to me to discuss countermeasures."

The official ownership of the Marquis's territory has not been decided yet, so Aarons can't make a targeted plan. After understanding this, he is no longer so anxious.

"Also... please be careful. The recent behavior of the Cadia Chamber of Commerce is a bit strange, and there is no guarantee that something will not happen in the future."

It seems that it is best to stay at home for the next few days - Aarons finally came to this conclusion.
