After calmly glancing at the bill, Victor gently placed it on the table.

"Lia, what are the sources of income for the territory?"

Hearing Victor's question, Lia tilted her head and squinted at him.

She chuckled softly, as if looking at a fool, her tone seemingly laced with mockery.

"As a lord, how can you not know the source of your territory's income?"

Although Victor genuinely didn't know, that didn't stop Lydia from mocking him, this 'unworthy' lord.

"Listen carefully, our Clementa territory relies on the trade of grain and minerals for its main income!"

Through Lia's explanation, Victor gained a general understanding.

The Clevner family owns a territory named 'Clevner'.

The land is fertile and surrounded by lush forests.

The territory is about 100 kilometers from the capital, and it only takes a day to reach it by carriage.

For this reason, the empire's second most prosperous town is located here.

Clevina possesses a very fertile mineral vein, which, even now, could be mined for over fifty years.

The family is geographically close to the capital, has fertile land, abundant harvests, and owns mines.

It would be difficult for the Clavners to be poor.

"But recently, ore production has decreased significantly, and it's not harvest season yet. The grain we sold before was stored in granaries last year."

Lia faced Victor, her tone angry.

"We need to ensure the food supplies for our territory, so we can't possibly sell it all. Right now, the territory's income is very low, and you still dare to spend money like this at this critical juncture!"

Viktor nodded after hearing this, his face showing no expression, remaining quite calm.

Don't you feel even a little bit remorse?

Lia looked at Victor in disbelief. She knew her brother was someone who didn't care about anything, but surely he knew everything?

Viktor thought for a moment, then stroked his chin and replied to her:

"Hire a few mages, then acquire a shop in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital and open a mage prop shop."

Upon hearing Victor's suggestion, Leah immediately bristled and said sharply:

"Victor! Didn't you listen to a single word of my advice?!"

"Do you think this kind of shop is rare in the capital?!"

"So what if you own a store?! Do you think your name is more important than all other businesses?"

"Victor, do you even know how to do business?!"

Lia became more and more excited as she spoke.

She thought about how, after her parents died, she had been learning to manage the territory since she was a child, and had maintained it for more than ten years. Even now, the territory was still able to make a living.

No matter how much Viktor squandered money, she never complained.

And now, this Victor who knows nothing is actually trying to interfere in the family business!

What exactly is he trying to do?!

As she spoke, she seemed to feel more and more aggrieved.

Seeing that he couldn't calm Leah down with words, Victor didn't want to say anything more. He simply waved his hand, and dozens of bottles of blue magic potions appeared on the table in front of the two of them.

Lia was stunned. Looking at the blue potion on the table, as blue as the sea, her anger suddenly subsided.

"What's this?"

She blinked.

No one has ever seen such a magic potion before.

Items that restore magic power do exist, but they all have one thing in common.

Rare and very expensive.

The only potions available on the market are those for treating injuries, and their effects are quite different from the [Life Potion] used by players.

One is a slow repair similar to taking medicine, and the other is to restore health points immediately after taking it.

This is the difference between real-world items and game props.

To put it bluntly, bringing game items into reality would be a pure bug.

Even a small bottle of magic potion that instantly restores health can become a god-level item.

So Viktor didn't explain, and it was too hard to believe coming from him.

Seeing is believing.

Viktor gave the order calmly.

"Find a few mages and have them cast spells until they're exhausted, then take a bottle of it, and you'll know what to do."

Lia was extremely suspicious, but she still took all the potions.

"By the way, do you have any help?"

Hearing Victor's question, Lia smiled disdainfully: "Oh, so our Great Lord has learned to be considerate of his servants?"

Viktor paid no attention to the other party's sarcasm. In fact, the discord between the siblings was also related to Viktor's inaction.

So he simply repeated his question.

"Seriously, has your caravan ever hired bodyguards or any kind of helpers?"

Liya snorted coldly.

"No, I don't trust anyone."

In other words, Lydia has always run the business in the territory of Clavenna alone.

"Won't we encounter any danger on the way? Although the territory isn't far from the capital, it's still a full day's journey."

Lia was surprised that her unreliable brother would care about her one day, but she felt a little uncomfortable with this kind of care.

She leaned against the table, twirling a finger around the end of her hair, and turned her face away somewhat awkwardly.

"Hmm... no, we have our own trade routes. If we encounter bandits or anything like that, as long as we show our Claver family crest, they will know to leave. Usually, nothing will happen."

"At least from the past until now, I haven't encountered any danger."

After saying that, she didn't look at Victor, but instead took out a bottle of medicine and examined it carefully.
