-24- Financial Crisis(2/2)

“Respectability when you have money is respectability, but respectability when you have no money is just trying to make yourself look fat and asking for trouble.”

Charlotte shook her head.

She picked up the tall crystal glass, took a sip of milk, and continued:

"Now I am the head of the family in Castel, and I have the final say in everything. Since the inventory at home is not much, I will save a little money and spend more money to call some servants."

Quasimodo hesitated for a moment and nodded:

"As you command, my master. Just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just...I'm afraid no one will want to come to our manor."

Quasimodo smiled bitterly.

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, and then understood instantly.

Castle Manor has experienced many deaths, including being wiped out directly. Moreover, it was also a notorious case of the Blood Demon. The previous head of the family was most likely related to the Blood Demon Order.

No normal person would dare to come to a place like this that involves the blood sacrifice of the evil god...

After all, nothing is as important as your life.

The Blood Demon Cult has been so rampant recently, and no one can guarantee whether anything will happen to the Castel family again...

"Give it a try and increase the commission. There are always brave guys. Hmm... Or, you can also recall some servants from the few shops the family has in the city."

Charlotte thought for a while and said.

Quasimodo was even more confused:

"About this...actually...I just wanted to report to you..."

"Um?"

"In several of our stores, the clerks are almost gone..."

Charlotte:……

"Huh? What's going on?"

"Hey, it's all based on rumors... In the days after the incident, there were rumors that the Blood Demon God was eyeing the Castel family. If they didn't leave quickly, sooner or later they would be captured and sacrificed, or be killed.

It turned into a living corpse. As a result... As a result, everyone ran away within a few days..."

Charlotte:……

"Hey, forget it, let's try our best."

She rubbed her temples and sighed.

After receiving the order, Quasimodo was ready to clear the table and leave.

"Wait a minute, wait until I finish eating and then clean up."

Looking at the remaining lunch, Charlotte hesitated and said.

Although she was already full, when she thought about the price of this meal, she couldn't bear to waste it.

This is all money!

One meal paid for her food at the mission hospital for several months!

After forcing herself to finish the last piece of veal steak, Charlotte ended her lunch, while Quasimodo packed up the dishes and retreated.

After the old servant left the manor, Charlotte was the only one left in the family.
Chapter completed!
