Chapter 21 Gifts
Chapter 21 Gift
Chier County City has more than a dozen ordinary cities and many rural towns, and its territory has millions of residents. It can be said that a Chier County City is enough to catch up with a principality.
And the city lord of Chier County is equivalent to that of a grand duke of a principality!
"It's really enviable to become the lord of a county town at the age of fourteen." Many people started to talk about it in the taverns of Chir County.
Mrs. Weide and his siblings suddenly died in a fire, which also made the originally complicated power struggle in Chier County suddenly clear.
There is no doubt.
Kean, who has the blood of the Jax family, will definitely inherit the position of the lord of the county city.
"The countess went to search the house late at night, but she didn't expect that she would lose her life. It's really ironic." An old man with red beard grabbed the big glass of ale and said with a smile.
"I heard it was burned to death." Someone next to him said.
"How could it be killed by fire? There are so many city guards around you. If it is really burned, how could the Countess and the others not escape?" A thin man suddenly lowered his voice, "I will tell you a secret. The Countess and the three brothers and sisters were killed and then burned by a fire."
The people around him immediately looked at him.
"This is true." The thin man said confidently.
"Everyone is talking nonsense." A big man said with a sneer, "I am the city guard. I was there that night. Do you know more, or do I know more?"
The thin man immediately laughed dryly: "Brother, I just said it was fun."
"The countess's mother, brother and sister, were not burned to death, but should have been bombed." The man said correctly, "It was burned to death? Will they not call for help? But one of our squadron's brothers heard no cry for help from beginning to end. They must have exploded suddenly, bombing the three of them to death, so that the three of them had no chance to call for help."
Everyone else nodded, and the thin man nodded too.
Obviously, this explanation is very logical.
"Don't worry about Mrs. Weide. Now we are the ones who are in charge of Chir County, but those two siblings." The man took a sip of wine and said loudly.
That's right, the most dazzling thing in Chil County is that the brothers and brothers Jenny and Keen were not favored by them.
In the castle of the lord.
"Why are there so many?" Keane looked through the gift list in his hand, then looked at the gifts filled with almost the entire room, and couldn't help but be stunned.
As soon as Mrs. Widd died, many nobles immediately came to get close to Keen, giving gifts, beauties, and powerful guards... These nobles all knew that at Keen's age, their family would probably be subject to Keen's future city lord in the next hundred years. Naturally, they had to establish a good relationship with each other.
"Not much." Lambert shook his head and said.
Jenny and Keane looked at Lambert in surprise, while Linley sat aside and drank tea.
"Grandpa Lambert, not much?" Jenny exclaimed.
Lambert shook his head and said, "Miss, young master, these gifts are probably only about hundreds of thousands of gold coins. Hundreds of thousands of gold coins... Humph, young master, do you know how much the eldest lady's property is? I guess there should be more than tens of millions of gold coins!"
"More than ten million gold coins?" Jenny and Keane were shocked.
They lived in the countryside, and had seen such a wealthy person? But Lambert had always followed their mother, and he lived in the castle of the city lord, and was very familiar with many things.
"It's normal. I have managed these millions of people for so many years. With the greed of the eldest lady, it would be strange if there is no ten million gold coins. Unfortunately, we have never found the eldest lady's magic crystal card. Even if we find it... I'm afraid that the magic crystal card also has the eldest lady's fingerprint. We can't get the gold coins either." Lambert shook his head helplessly.
The rules of the Four Kingdoms' Gold Bank are completely beneficial to the Four Kingdoms' Gold Bank itself.
After recording a certain magic crystal card with fingerprint, this magic crystal card can only be used by this person. If an outsider takes it, it is useless.
certainly……
Those who own magic crystal cards can go to the Four Kingdoms Gold Store and transfer their property to others.
However, if the person with Magic Crystal Card died suddenly, he did not transfer his property. Then this property would be swallowed up by the Four Kingdoms Financial Store. In fact, there is no way for the Four Kingdoms Financial Store to do this.
The amount of gold coins in the magic crystal cards issued outside is actually more than ten times the amount of gold coins stored by the Four Kingdoms Gold Store itself.
But many super rich people, the so-called 100 million gold coins.
Who would go to the bank to get 100 million gold coins? It may be difficult to transport it. This is also one of the reasons why the Four Kingdoms Gold Bank dares to issue so many magic crystal cards. And these Four Kingdoms Gold Banks dare not issue magic crystal cards indiscriminately because this is unified management of the Four Kingdoms, and behind it is the martial god "O'Brien" and the longest-lived human strong man, the "high priest". No one dares to do anything randomly.
"Ten million gold coins, it's gone." Keane said in pain.
He really felt sorry for the huge sum of money.
"Young Master, being a city lord does not just collect wealth, but also requires paying some city guards, some city transformation, etc., which costs money." Lambert said again.
Keane was stunned.
"Ah, it costs money to be a city lord?" Keen didn't know so much.
"So, I said these hundreds of thousands of gold coins are nothing. Fortunately, there is a fixed warehouse in the county town, and there should be a lot of money in the warehouse." Lambert said.
Keane covered his head: "Ah, being a city lord seems to be very painful and complicated."
"Sister." Keane looked at Jenny expectantly, "You must help me."
Jenny nodded very honestly: "Kean, I will definitely help you." This time, Jenny's future life began to become painful.
Keane, Jenny, and Lambert didn't know at this moment.
When they were worried about money, Lin Lei, who was drinking tea next to him, had the wealth accumulation of a kingdom clan for thousands of years. This wealth was amazing, and it was probably difficult for their clan to manage the "Jax family" that had been in the northwest province for more than a thousand years.
After all, no matter how much they make money, they cannot make money as good as the royal family in the kingdom.
"Jane, Keane." Lin Lei suddenly spoke, "You guys continue here, I'll go to practice first."
Jenny and Keen all looked at Lin Lei, Keen smiled and said, "Brother Lei, don't practice too much tonight. Remember to come for dinner. Today... my sister is going to cook in person."
Jenny blushed immediately.
Since that banquet, Keane publicly stated that Linley was Jenny's fiancé. Many nobles in Chil County really thought so. Even many servants thought so, which naturally made Jenny the girl Jenny shy.
"By the way." Lin Lei smiled and waved his hand.
Four large wooden boxes suddenly appeared on the ground of this hall. The wooden boxes were opened and stored in them were various works of art, precious magic crystal cores and some rare and precious items.
"Is this?" Jenny, Keane was stunned.
"This is the property of the Hallmo family. I don't know the value of these four wooden boxes. It's probably over one million. And there is also this." Lin Lei took out eight magic crystal cards, "This is the unknown magic crystal cards of the Hallmo family. There are eight of them in total, and each one should be a fixed amount of one million gold coins."
Lin Lei heard Mrs. Weide and his three brothers say this. Only then did he know the amount of the magic crystal card.
"This, this." Jenny, Keane, and even Lambert looked at Linley in surprise.
"There are probably nearly 10 million gold coins in total. With these... you don't have to be too nervous to manage this Chier County City. Okay, I'll go to practice."
Lin Lei threw eight magic crystal cards into the wooden box, turned around and left.
Jenny, Keane, and Lambert looked at the four wooden boxes and the eight complex magic crystal cards, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Sister." Keane looked at Jenny.
Jenny said in a daze: "At the beginning, I asked Brother Lei to protect us and said I would give him ten thousand gold coins. This..."
The siblings really don’t know what to say. They spent 10,000 gold coins to ask for someone, but the other party only received a deposit of one gold coins. But now they actually gave them nearly ten million gold coins and wealth.
Tens of millions of gold coins!
What a terrible fortune this is.
When the Debs family in the Finlay Kingdom was most glorious, their property was only about 100 million gold coins. Then after the smuggling incident, the property declined to only 10 million gold coins. But even so, it was still a big family in the Finlay Kingdom.
"Miss, Master, this Mr. Lei is really extraordinary." Lambert's expression was very serious.
Jenny, Keane nodded.
Nonsense, can you give people ten million gold coins at will?
"Just just now, with a wave of his hand, four wooden boxes appeared out of thin air. If I had expected it well... Mr. Lei has a legendary space ring!" Lambert's expression was serious.
"Space Ring?" Jenny and Keane had never heard of it.
Lambert said, "Yes, the space ring is a priceless treasure. It is a symbol of status and strength on the Magnolia Continent. A space ring, although it is said that someone quotes hundreds of millions of gold coins. I have never heard of anyone selling the space ring."
"Hundreds of millions of gold?" Jenny, Keane was completely stunned.
If hundreds of millions of gold coins are piled up in front of you, what is the situation? They dare not even think of this terrifying wealth.
"On the entire northwest province, only the legendary patriarch of the Jax family who is in charge of the northwest province, owns a space ring." Lambert spent many years in Chil County and knew some of the things of the Jax family.
"You're talking about... Grandpa McKenshey?" Keane said immediately.
The Jax family is most proud of is the first generation of patriarch Jax, and the legendary patriarch McKenxi & Jax.
Jax was just an ordinary civilian back then. After joining the army, he was promoted all the way and made great contributions to the O'Brien Empire. He eventually established a new legion of the O'Brien Empire - the Jax Legion.
It was named after Jax, and then the Jax family was even more established.
Contemporary emperors even asked Jax to manage the northwest province, and his favor can be seen from this.
Of course... the first generation of clan leader is famous because of his leadership. As for his personal strength, even when he is dying, he is only a level eight warrior.
However, McKenxi and Jax are the pride of the family. More than fifty years ago, McKenxi finally entered the Holy Land before he was two hundred years old.
The Holy Land Powerful!
A powerful sanctuary appears in a family. As long as this powerful sanctuary does not die, as long as this family does not rebel, the glory of this family will not decline.
"Grandpa McKenxi has a space ring?" Keane said in surprise.
"Yes, it was also the gift from His Majesty the Emperor himself." Lambert sighed, "The Jax family has always been proud. You should know that even the kings of some kings in the Magnolia Continent have few space rings."
Keane, Jenny fully felt the preciousness of the space ring.
"But I didn't expect... Mr. Lei actually owned a space ring. No wonder, I have to take ten million gold coins seriously."
Keane and Jenny all felt breath-holding.
"I want to inherit the city lord, I think my status is very high. I can also be a high-ranking official with Brother Lei. But it seems that Brother Lei..." Keen seemed to feel it now.
The lord of a county city is already as high as the ordinary people.
