How much did Chapter 105 sell for?
Previously, the situation in the North had become unpredictable because Earl of Strider had openly refused the summons of Grand Duke Frostfox.
Unsure of Frost's attitude, Richard only passed through Wolf's Territory without entering the city.
But now, Earl of the Wolf's personal assurance has put his worries at ease.
Furthermore, Brad's act of opening the city gates for the Snow Rabbit Clan immediately during the previous conflict with the Knights of Light demonstrates that he is a pragmatic person who knows how to weigh the pros and cons.
After much deliberation, Richard decided to risk visiting Frostholdt, hoping to learn some unknown secrets about the North from Brad.
It's just a pity.
Brad is not here.
Just as he was about to suggest visiting Lucy, a pretty figure came running quickly from the inner corridor of the castle.
"Richard!"
Unlike her aloof and haughty demeanor when they first met, Lucy's eyes were now brimming with joy.
If there hadn't been servants around, she probably would have jumped into his arms.
I saw her.
Richard's lips unconsciously curled up slightly, but before he could speak, Lucy stared intently at him and asked, "Richard."
"Take a guess! How much did Father sell your farming techniques for?"
Richard's heart skipped a beat. He pretended to frown and deliberately raised his voice to ask, "One hundred thousand gold coins?"
Lucy didn't get the reaction she wanted, and the joy on her face instantly faded, her rosy lips pouting slightly.
"You're such a spoilsport."
After saying that, she turned around and strode towards the back garden, the hem of her pink dress drawing a light arc.
Richard smiled slightly and followed, with Celia carrying the exquisite gift box close behind.
It was still the same back garden, blooming with roses and tulips, where the spring breeze made the flowers sway.
Celia placed the gift box on the stone table and then left. The old butler, Frosty, came over with a fruit platter and wine, set it out, and then bowed and took his leave.
Only the two of them remained in the vast back garden. Richard walked to the flowerbed, gently touched a red rose, and smiled, "Tell me, how many did you sell?"
"Those two, Snow Deer and Snow Fox, should have made a deal, right? That means they sold for at least two thousand gold coins, right?"
Lucy stood beside him, her chin slightly raised, and gave a slightly arrogant hum, her pretty face breaking into a smile again.
"You only guessed half right!"
Richard nodded.
"That means you sold to four stores for four thousand gold coins. Not bad, not bad."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lucy covered her mouth and burst out laughing.
"wrong!"
"When I said you guessed half right, I meant you only guessed a tiny fraction!"
"Did you know that Father sold eleven properties and received a total of twelve thousand gold coins!"
Richard was truly stunned.
"Twelve thousand?"
He originally thought that Viscount Brad could sell to five or six houses at most, but he never expected that eleven houses would buy them!
In other words, Brad did nothing during this time but visited other noble lords.
exactly!
This is what smart people should do.
As a lord who rules over a region, development is ultimately the priority; making money and developing one's strength is the key to success.
Unlike Earl of the Wolf, who always insists on taking unorthodox and disruptive actions, it's simply inexplicable.
When Lucy saw Richard finally show a shocked expression, her heart filled with a little smugness, and she looked at him with a smile.
She later read Richard's farming guide and was greatly impressed.
Everyone is pursuing life-sustaining food, but no one has ever thought of using nature's methods to improve the land.
His ingenuity is nothing special; the key is that he actually developed a highly practical technology, which is what makes him truly remarkable.
Many lords who purchased the farming technology marveled and speculated whether it was the work of a wise and experienced sage.
But they could never have guessed that Richard was only just turned 18, the same age as them.
Frost could sell this skill for him, which even gave her a sense of pride.
no way.
The speed at which this money comes in is terrifying.
With 12,000 gold coins, split 50/50 between Frost and Chiffon, you can get 6,000 coins, which is almost Frost's net profit over six years!
And all this.
It's all because of this man in front of me...
The key point is that he's also so handsome...
Well...
Lucy forcibly broke free from a certain thought, turned around and clapped her hands in the corridor.
soon.
Several castle servants carried six chests into the back garden. When the chests were opened, the glittering gold coins were dazzling to the eye.
"hehe."
"My father instructed me before he left that your share of the profits must not be delayed. Even if you hadn't come today, I was planning to arrange for someone to deliver it directly to Chiffon Territory."
Richard regained his composure.
I took a deep breath, but I couldn't suppress the smile on my lips.
Six thousand gold coins!
That's enough to splurge for a while!
and.
They should have found gold ore at the mine. When that happens, we'll send two teams to the capital to exchange it for gold coins, and then we'll basically achieve financial freedom.
Frost, as expected of an old noble family, is almost as reputable as Wolves in terms of credibility, and knows that this kind of thing should not be delayed.
"Frost's connections are truly enviable, and the Viscount's skills are also quite remarkable. There are probably few lords in the North who can compare."
A couple of compliments.
Richard then changed the subject.
"By the way, where is the Viscount?"
"Summer planting is just a few days away. Instead of staying in the territory to oversee things, why is he going out at this time?"
Lucy turned around and smiled sweetly.
"You're just unlucky. Father only returned yesterday to store the gold coins. He didn't even have a sip of water before he took his men on a mission to the southern border."
"He said that selling technology in the North was too frustrating; he had to haggle with the lords for ages over a thousand gold coins, it was too pathetic."
"The South is prosperous and has a broad vision. The price of selling to one place is equivalent to selling to several places in the North. Therefore, I will be in charge of this year's summer planting."
Upon hearing this...
Richard instantly pictured Viscount Brad carrying a chest of gold coins, looking as energetic as if he'd been injected with adrenaline, walking with a swagger.
indeed.
Anyone who encountered such a stroke of good fortune, almost like picking up money off the street, would probably be unable to remain calm.
Twelve thousand gold coins is just the beginning. If you make a few moves in the Southern Territory, you can make a fortune.
Given the current state of the frost, the major farmland renovation plan will likely be postponed until next year, and this year's focus will be on selling this technology.
Yeah.
"Then I wish the Viscount a fruitful return. Perhaps this trip to the Southern Territory will bring back 100,000 gold coins."
Lucy smiled broadly, nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with anticipation for the future.
She reached out and took Richard's arm; the soft touch seeped through his clothes, carrying a hint of girlish shyness and boldness.
Richard.
"Let's sit down and talk. My father said that if you come, he will bring out the last bottle of Venus wine in the storeroom to entertain you."
"hehe."
"I missed out on a drink last time, but thanks to you this time, I'll have to have a good taste."
Richard saw her holding his hand, and a thought struck him. He took her hand in return and gently pulled her into his arms. A delicate and pleasant fragrance wafted towards him.
