"Owner..."

Light footsteps came from behind, and then the maid's voice rang beside her.

"Has Knight Lawton gone?"

"Yes, Knight Lawton has left."

An Wen slowly savored the black tea without continuing to speak. He looked out the window and thought about something. The maid Xilu stood behind him in silence, waiting quietly for the order.

"Xilu, how many Jinnar can be used at home?"

After waiting for a while, An Wen seemed to think clearly and suddenly asked

"Yesterday, the hostess handed over 3,000 jinars to Xilu. In addition to purchasing the sub-maid, tailor, coachman, gardener, chef, and some necessary expenses, there are still 1,447 jinars, silver deer and copper coins, which are not counted. The master, without affecting the maintenance of the castle, you can use 1,300 jinars."

Is there only 1300 jinars? It's too little.

An Wen frowned. When he ordered the chief maid to get the kinner just now, An Wen remembered that there was no industry in his family that could bring profits. It would not last long with the 3,000 kinner subsidized by the association.

You have to think of ways to build some industries to maintain your life.

According to the talent and privileges of the Lantern Earl, Anwen can involve all categories of industries and will not be restricted. However, according to normal circumstances, the Lantern Earl will generally only participate in the two high-end industries of alchemy and creation. Some of them who prefer Jinnar will participate in catering, tea, high-end clothing, and occasionally interfere in the transportation industry.

However, agriculture, fishery, salt, manufacturing, etc., which are closely related to ordinary people, basically no lantern Count will intervene. At this point, the association, city hall, parliament, military, and several giants have a tacit understanding.

An Wen did not intend to break this tacit understanding, so his initial plan was to go to other prosperous areas in the city to buy a few shops and open a few grocery stores for alchemy and creation to temporarily maintain his life, but 1,300 jinars was a little less and he couldn't buy anything at all.

Renting a shop is a way, but as the Count of Lanterns, who is so poor that he rents a shop to live, he will definitely become a laughing stock in the upper class of Jinghu City. Maybe it will become a dark history that accompanies the An family. For the sake of the face of future generations, let’s forget this one.

Due to the lack of money in his pocket, An Wen thought about it and couldn't find any industry that was both decent and fast.

It seems that I can only take out some old things and exchange them.

"Xilu, go get the parchment roll and quill and help me record it."

"Okay, master."

The capable maid heard An Wen's order and soon took out a specially treated lambskin roll from the cabinet in the corner of the reception room, pulled it open on the small round table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and flattened it with rectangular rock suppression.

"3 purified eye stalks, 1 drop of contaminated blood, 3 small pieces of mist flower leaves, 7 grams of shadow moss, 1 gram of moonlight dust, 9 grams of ground bone meal, 100 ml of pure dew, one tenth of the morning dew, refined according to standard procedures, the time for input materials follows the orchid mechanism, three refining and extraction, and then 9 high-density filtration is required, and the activation secret word is 'Naran'."

"The name of the potion is 'Insight Potion'. The potion effect is to enhance vision and is not affected by fog and light for 30 seconds."

While drinking black tea, An Wen reported a series of potion formulas. The maid Xilu looked surprised, but without any pause in her hand, she recorded the recipes that An Wen said on the parchment one by one.

"Xilu, go to the association tomorrow and give this recipe to the president. If the president asks, he will say it is a gift for him. There is no need to say anything else, just come back directly. Do you understand?"

"I know, master."

The maid Xilu blew the ink stains on the roll, carefully rolled up the roll, and put it into the maid's skirt.

"It's very good, so you can go and do it, don't be by my side."

An Wen took a sip of black tea with satisfaction, waved the headmaid away, watched her walk out of the reception room and gently brought it to the door, and then returned to the sofa in front of the fireplace and sat down.

If nothing unexpected happens, the recipe for this medicine will be delivered and you will receive a return gift soon. With the president's sophistication, this return gift will definitely be urgently needed by An Wen, and the problem of lack of funds will naturally be solved.

With sufficient financial reserves, An Wen did not have to prepare anything in a hurry. He could completely slow down his layout and take advantage of the opportunity that District 98 was still deserted and the land prices were cheap, and he bought a lot of land in various prosperous areas, especially Linhu Chang Street. If he didn't buy a dozen or twenty stores, he was simply sorry for the identity of Count Lantern.

At that time, whether it was building a shop for your own use or renting it, it was a cost-effective business, and it was also one of the most commonly used ways for the Count of Lanterns to obtain industries.

There are also diamond-shaped areas between urban areas that cannot be ignored. Although you cannot buy too much agricultural land, it is still okay to buy thousands or tens of thousands of square feet of land and plant some fruits and fruits for your own use.

In addition to these, fishing boats can also prepare one, and buy two sub-human fishermen. They can fish for castle consumption every day, and there are also two shepherds who provide meat. Mills and slaughterhouses need to be built.

Well, after thinking about it this way, there are quite a lot of things at home.

And An Wen also discovered a problem. He lacked a trusted butler to help him manage the family industry and participate in some occasions that he was not convenient to attend.

The maid Xilu is very capable, but after all, she is an Asian. Although An Wen doesn't care, the mainstream society in Jinghu City will not accept that an Asian becomes a noble housekeeper, let alone a woman.

She is only suitable for being the chief maid, managing the castle housekeeper and the housekeeper position. An Wen also needs to find a human with pure bloodline, which is a bit troublesome. With An Wen's narrow social circle, it is really difficult to find a suitable candidate.

After some thoughts on scoring the stomach, An Wen accidentally discovered a good candidate.

The woman I brought back from the inner world last night was very good. No matter what aspect it was, it was quite suitable. I just didn’t know if she was willing to accept An Wen’s employment.

An Wenben wanted to call the woman directly for inquiries, but after thinking about it, he gave up on this idea.

Maybe it is a good time to talk about this topic when she is forced to the point of desperate situation by the Fisheries Association and starts to seek Anwen's protection.

An Wen's mouth curled slightly, showing a meaningful smile.

After planning the family industry and the selection of the housekeeper, An Wen was in a good mood. After drinking all the black tea in his hand, he stood up and stood up.

It was getting late, so it was time to go to the work room to sort out the spoils I brought back yesterday. I wonder what good things were waiting for him to discover after the rules were filtered.

An Wen is still looking forward to this.
