Chapter 14

Way to gain a sense of presence, Hudson can be regarded as a duck to water. The nobles present were not ordinary people, and all of them spoke nicely.

  Dogs look down on people, and with provocative, contemptuous, and hateful plots, there is no shadow.

  As the youngest player, Hudson is still very popular among the crowd. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, I guess I would have sold my daughter to him.

  The only regret is that all the big men attended the banquet, and none of the expected ladies and noble ladies appeared.

  This is also something that can't be helped, who will bring the family when they go out? The outsiders did not bring their family members, and the nearby nobles naturally did not bring their female companions.

  Everyone came here to exchange feelings and hold a group to keep warm. In the face of the pressure of survival, all the romance and love have to lean back.

  Eating dark dishes, Hudson became more and more contemptuous of Chells' invention. The magic dining table can be pretentious, but the taste is really hard to describe.

  But this is also normal, just like the unmanned cooking machine in the previous life. All the ingredients and side dishes are put in according to the most scientific ratio, and the final food is just barely swallowable, without a soul at all.

  Seeing Cheers drinking alone, Hudson picked up the wine glass and walked over with an idea, and said with a smile: "Uncle Cheers, are you going to change your career to become a bard?"

  Cheers, who was already unhappy, Hearing this, his face became more and more gloomy, and the look in Hudson's eyes was no longer kind.

  "Bard" seems to have a bright future, but it's not a good job. In the eyes of the nobles, they are a group of guys who are full and have nothing to do. It's okay to

  listen to stories. Which family's children ran to become bards? been ridiculed for decades.

  The joke went too far, Hudson didn't panic at all, and continued to say calmly: "Uncle Cheers, there is a chance to make a fortune, I wonder if you are interested?"

  Seeing that he was not joking, Cheers' original anger was instantly extinguished.

  A few days ago, I did a magic experiment and accidentally overdid it, which caused the territory's finances to be on the verge of bankruptcy. If he doesn't find a solution as soon as possible, thousands of people will starve together with him.

  To raise money, his beard is almost graying. However, the house was leaking and it was raining all night, and Earl Pierce's call-up order made Cheers nowhere to borrow money.

  War is a waste of money. For this kind of compulsory recruitment, they all bring their dry food to participate in the war, and all expenses are borne by the noble lord himself.

  You can tell from the strength of the mobilization that everyone will have to tighten their belts in the future. Even if you still have spare energy, you should keep it in case of a rainy day.

  Even if he wanted to borrow money, he couldn't open his mouth. The pressure on Chelsea can be imagined.

  If the territory goes bankrupt, he, the lord, will be the end. Aristocrats not only enjoy rights but also have obligations.

  No matter how successful the enslavement education is, it must satisfy the citizens, and at least guarantee the minimum survival line. Otherwise, people will rebel if they are hungry.

  Cheers also have a wife and children, so he would never dare to lose his family business. As a last resort, there is today's banquet.

  From the current point of view, this wave is already a blood loss. They didn't sell anything, but they lost the money for holding the banquet.

  No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. For Chelsea, who is on the verge of bankruptcy, holding a banquet is a big expense.

  Hearing that there was a chance to make a fortune, Cheers didn't hesitate, and immediately asked: "Hudson, my cutest nephew, what do you mean by a chance to make a fortune?"

  After taking a sip of wine, Hudson didn't panic. He replied unhurriedly: "Of course, it's war wealth!

  The scale of this rebellion is not small, and the accumulation of many nobles and wealthy businessmen has fallen into the hands of the rebels. Now, these guys are very rich.

  As long as they wipe out, presumably, our harvest will not be less. If you are lucky and catch a few big fish, it will be bloody money."

  After getting the answer, Chelsea's interest suddenly dropped, and he said angrily: "Hudson, you are still too young.

  Everyone knows about war wealth. But how many people have made money through war?

  Even if it is No matter how much loot there is, it belongs to the big men above. We can only pick up some leftovers, and we can't even make up for the cost of dispatching troops, so how can we talk about getting rich!"

  This is a fact, and few people have passed it since ancient times. Born out of war. It's not that there is no wealth in the war, the main reason is that the wealth has been divided up by the powerful.

  If the little nobles can drink the soup, it means that the bosses above have a conscience. When they meet a master who eats alone, they can't even drink the bath water.

  "Uncle Cheers, don't worry!"

  "In the end, the world still has to use its strength to speak. We naturally have no right to speak on the battlefield alone, but if we unite, it will be different.

  The nobles present today are full of power. There are more than 30 families, and if you gather everyone's soldiers and horses, there are thousands of people.

  If Uncle Cheers can take the lead and let everyone unite, there will be a place for us on the battlefield.

  If you are lucky, you may be able to Try to be responsible for an area alone. At that time, how to divide the spoils, isn't it up to us?"

  Hudson tried to bewitch.

  Originally, he wasn't planning to do anything, but the opportunity came to him, and he would be a fool if he didn't know how to take advantage of it.

  Regardless of the low title and poor status of Knight Cheers, he is too strong to stand up to him, and his influence among the nobles is not low.

  If they are willing to take the lead in allying, few of the nobles present can refuse. After all, no one wants to be cannon fodder on the battlefield.

  With the alliance, at least they can send representatives to participate in the military meeting, so as not to lose sight of it.

  As for the existence of the alliance, will it cause displeasure to the big men above? What does that have to do with Hudson?

  When the sky fell, it was the tall man who carried it first. He won't be the boss, as a small person, who has nothing to do to pay attention to him when he is full.

  "Everyone is willing to join?"

  Cheers asked uncertainly.

  It's okay to let him fight, and it's okay to do research, but it's embarrassing for him to play politics.

  After so many years of mixing, not only failed to carry forward the family business but made it on the verge of bankruptcy, which is enough to explain many problems.

  "Why do you refuse something beneficial?"

  Hudson smiled and threw the question back. The communication just now was not in vain, and he also imitated the little thoughts of the nobles.

  If he hadn't been sure, Hudson wouldn't have run over to tease Knight Cheers. After all, offending a great knight is also very troublesome.

  After hesitating for a moment, Cheers suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had made a major decision.

  "Okay, I've done it!"
