Chapter 155 make big money
"Hmph, a real man, don't be petty with you." Eugen murmured quietly, as if he was afraid of being heard, and looked up at the street ahead.
Then he sighed helplessly, bent down and walked towards the old mayor's residence: "Oh, it's so uncomfortable, where is the problem? Didn't they all like me at the beginning? Oh, a fickle woman."
Finally walking back to the room, the old mayor quickly came up and held Eugen's body and said, "How is it, Lord Eugen, are you okay?"
Eugen gave the old mayor a angrily blank look and said aggrievedly: "I said brother, you are too unkind. You didn't go out to stop me just now. Look at what I've been beaten."
The old mayor smiled embarrassedly, helped Eugen to the bed in the room and lie down, and said helplessly: "I didn't expect you to be beaten, sir. I said, "You are too strong, you dare to treat Princess Maria and Miss Margaret like that."
As soon as Eugen touched the bed, he screamed in pain. His butt just now could be said to be the worst-hit area, and he was beaten by the two tigresses for more than a dozen times.
There was no choice but to lie on my side, then continued, "What, don't I do what you said? If you want me to open up, I will open up."
The old mayor thought to himself that there was no such thing as opening, and that was the cuncillor who was looking for death, but the old mayor was not good at attacking Eugen again. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to be too depressed. Your beating is not a loss. Look, Princess Maria and Miss Margaret are reunited?"
As he said that, the old mayor seemed to be afraid that Eugen would forget, and he specifically reminded him: "Didn't your original purpose be to make them reconcile and not to cause trouble for you? You see, both goals have been achieved now, and it can be said that they will kill two birds with one stone."
Eugenxin said, "I'm a ghost, I'm not you who was beaten, but the situation is indeed as the old mayor said. If you only look at the favorable side, the situation will not be too bad."
Thinking of this, Eugen finally didn't say anything more. He just sighed and turned to rest. However, he accidentally touched the bruises on his butt, and suddenly another painful scream, and tears were almost flowing out.
After the morning incident, the relationship between Maria and Margaret made rapid progress and soon became a best friend who could talk about everything.
On the contrary, Eugen was neglected by the two and lost his favor.
Under Eugen's strong request, the matter that day was not promoted, so most people did not understand why the relationship between the three suddenly changed.
Before this, Maria and Margaret were each responsible for part of the governance of Leber City and carefully managed the city. After their relationship improved, they became more and more skillful in their work, and their cooperation was also very tacit.
The lord Eugen had nothing to do, and he was rarely free.
Corion was not by Eugen. There was a city guard in Leber City. On the first day he returned, Eugen handed over the city guard to Corion and asked him to train these soldiers.
After experiencing the battle with Blackbeard, Eugen felt the importance of the army more and more. He was eager to build a team of his own and powerful combat power.
On that day, Eugen was bored and went to talk to the old mayor. The topic was tangled and eventually it was more than the cost of city construction. Then Eugen realized that he had no money long ago.
"You also know that Lord Eugen, the construction of Lebir City requires a lot of money to invest in all aspects, and also maintain the needs of the town. In fact, half a month ago, the gold coins you left here were already spent."
The old mayor said in a nagging manner: "In the past half month, we have been using the gold coins brought by Princess Maria to build the city, and the family behind Miss Margaret have also given some support. I have recorded all the gold coins and are counted as borrowed from the two ladies."
Eugen did not expect that Margaret and Maria would transform into his creditors.
He became the lord of the Lebir region, and was ambitious to make some great achievements, but he became a frugal person at first sight.
"How much, how much does we owe these two ladies?" With a complicated mentality, Eugen asked this question.
"Ahem, well, let me look at it. The total number should not exceed 100,000 Kielder gold coins, but this is because of the short time. If we continue according to the current construction trend, by next year, the total number of gold coins we owe should exceed 1 million Kielder gold coins."
"Million..." Eugen murmured, looking ahead and murmured. This is not a small number. It is very difficult for a large force like Habsburg to extract millions of gold coins at once, let alone he is just a small count.
Eugen felt the importance of making money more and more urgently. He suddenly realized that although he had made a lot of arrangements, there were not many projects that could make money for him. Instead, many of them required huge investment.
"Okay, start tomorrow and find a way to make a lot of money!" Eugen stood up suddenly and said confidently.
He didn't lack ways to make money in his mind, but he had devoted himself to other places before and did not pay attention to this matter.
Now that the concept has changed, although Eugen has no specific plans in his mind, he has already had many ideas. The next thing to do is to start taking action.
As time goes by, the weather in October is already very cold, and clouds will gather in the sky from time to time. There will be a heavy snowfall that will cover the entire earth.
The cold wind converges the water vapor from the Mediterranean, and the cold rain mixed with broken ice on the Italian peninsula. The warm sunshine is decreasing day by day, and the night is getting longer and longer.
On this day, the Roman defense line, which had resisted the Black Death for more than ten days, finally completely collapsed in a heavy rain covering its sight.
The condition continued to spread, and in a blink of an eye it entered the Pescara area. All the residents who could leave behind the defense line had been evacuated, and most of the remaining were poor farmers who were unable to relocate.
The first targets of the Black Death attack were these poor people.
Within two days, tens of thousands of people died in the Pescara area.
The city of Rome, the center of Christianity, is now in a bleak state. In the city, there are scattered groups of citizens who die in the city. Without anyone to deal with their bodies, they fall on the streets to wait for decay.
Many people still hold a crumpled indulgence that has been wrinkled and has become ragged. The Pope's signature on it gradually blurred as the rain curtain washed away and eventually disappeared.
