Inside the city hall, people were coming and going.
Many nobles came to the city hall with golden gold coins to inquire about houses and buy houses.
The amazing thing is that the house has not been built yet.
This is the first time in this world that this has happened.
One bad thing is that when the city hall was designed, the layout was a bit small. So it was a bit crowded, and because it was a rainy day, people walking around inevitably got mud on their shoes.
So it was a complete mess inside the city hall.
Luther wore very ordinary clothes and walked into the city hall in a very low-key manner. Occasionally, officials passed by in a hurry without recognizing Luther, and the newcomers naturally did not recognize Luther either.
Without causing any commotion, Luther arrived at the mayor's office on the second floor.
Mr. Mayor was immersed in writing something on his desk when he heard footsteps and raised his head. When he saw Luther, Lelouch smiled.
"How many houses have you sold with such a bright smile?" Luther stepped forward and asked in a good mood.
"About a thousand villas were sold." Lelouch said with a smile.
"Good boy." Luther couldn't help but widen his eyes. Selling a thousand villas meant that there were a thousand wealthy families in Pompeii.
They spent three hundred gold coins to buy the villa, which means they still have extra gold coins, which may be three million or even five million gold coins.
This gold coin will bring endless consumption power to Pompeii.
Moreover, the Pompeii family suddenly earned 300,000 gold coins.
Now that the war has begun, the sales of the profitable Pompeii wine will definitely drop sharply because of the war. This income is absolutely crucial.
"Will the house be built in time? By the way, the quality must be good. We can't let Pompeii's reputation be damaged." Luther asked with great concern.
"I want to talk to you about this matter in detail." Lelouch said with a smile, his big beard jumping up and down a little funny.
There must be something good.
"Tell me about it." Luther was very interested.
"This time, many lord knights came with varying numbers of guards and servants. Now that they have arrived at a safe place, they are no longer lords, so they don't need so many people to serve them. So they distributed a little money and asked the servants to
, the guards left to fend for themselves. I gathered the strongest of these people to cut wood and build villas. Habs Factory recruited some young people to learn how to build furniture, and planned to sell the furniture to these people after the villas were built.
Nobles must make a fortune. I think you can also take the opportunity to ask Madam Sophie to recruit maids, make tableware, clothes, etc., and make a fortune."
Lelouch said.
"You mean we first took their three hundred gold coins, then hired their own guards and built villas for them to live in. In other words, except for the land, we got nothing for free?"
Luther understood and was really happy.
"Yes." Lelouch smiled brightly.
It is unheard of that such a good thing can happen in this world.
"Okay, I will ask my mother to open more clothing stores and tableware factories. By the way, some of them leave in a hurry and may not have that much cash, but they will definitely bring their valuables with them. If they don't have money to spend, they will have to sell their valuables.
, I have to open a pawn shop too."
Luther is like a greedy businessman who wants to take all the business into his arms.
This opportunity is so rare.
"Among these people, at least more than five hundred are knights. If they run out of money, they have to find a living. The Pompeii family can recruit them to expand the number of knights in the current territory."
Lelouch also made suggestions.
"Anyway, we have made a fortune." Luther waved his hand. Although he was happy, he quickly suppressed it. Luther said, "We will wait until they settle down. We are thinking about how to form a stable urban area. But before that, we will wait for them to settle down."
, we have to take care of our territory matters."
"What do you want to do?" Lelouch narrowed his eyes slightly.
"As a large noble with the current territory, the Pompeii family needs a new coat of arms." Luther said.
Before this, the Pompeii family also had a coat of arms, but it was only the coat of arms of the knight family, and there were hundreds of knight lord families in the entire Orange.
The whole kingdom is so big, there are even more knight lord families.
According to the territory occupied by the Pompeii family now, the Pompeii family is already a powerful group with a certain status in the entire Kingdom of Prussia.
Become a great nobleman who is not a great nobleman.
The Pompeii family needs a new coat of arms.
"This is simple. I also know heraldry, so I can help you design one. Do you have a design idea?" Lelouch asked.
"Just use the coat of arms of the Knights of the Mountains, four peaks, and a white eagle." Luther gestured, and then said with a smile, "And I have already thought of a name for the territory, and it will be called White Eagle Territory."
"After that, you will become the consul of the White Eagle Territory. The Pompeii City Hall will become the first-level city hall. The city halls of Silver Wing City, Windsor City, etc. will become the second-level city hall. Towns will set up third-level city halls.
.We overthrew all the lords and brought their rights within the scope of the city hall."
"By the way, the current city hall is too small. We should build a larger and more magnificent municipal hall. By the way, we also need a larger and more magnificent castle for the Pompeii family to live in."
Luther planned enthusiastically.
"This is no problem. Even if you ask me to be the consul of Orange, I am confident that I can manage it well. The only question now is, are Baron Billy and Baron Philip willing to give up their rights?"
Lelouch said softly. He put his hands on the desk, pushed the chair away with his legs and stood up.
Baron Philip survived because of Natsu and Knight Wilson's desperate protection.
Baron Billy escaped because of his superior strength.
Currently, the two barons are resting in two villas in Pompeii, while the remaining three lords have died.
So far, Luther has not found any survivors, including their direct children.
From the perspective of aristocratic inheritance, the bloodline of these lords is undoubtedly cut off. The collateral lines are eligible to inherit, but these are troubled times and no one will speak for them.
Therefore, the Pompeii family can directly annex their territory, but the remaining Baron Philip and Baron Billy will have more trouble.
From the perspective of allies, Luther should not annex them. But in order for the Pompeii family to grow, this was a step that must be taken.
Luther decided to give them a compensation contract.
"They will agree, but I need your persuasion. I can't say. Before that, let's discuss what compensation should be given to them."
Luther said.
"Okay, let's discuss it."
Lelouch sat down again, and the two began to discuss.
