Chapter 171 Cunning (Fourth Update)



The deal was quickly concluded. Luther handed Mr. Tel 16,000 gold coins and successfully obtained five carriages of magic potions.

He took the remaining gold coins and started his return journey.

By the way, Luther also bought some small gifts for William and Mary.

The consumption was very pleasant, but speaking of the journey.

Luther's plan did not go smoothly. He originally wanted to obtain five kinds of immune powers to truly become the king among the junior knights, and then returned to Pompeii.

And now I have gained immunity to water and wind, but I still have immunity to darkness, holy light, and thunder, so it is a bit imperfect.

But compared to the result, it was nothing. Luther got a full 200,000 gold coins, which was great.

When they returned to Pompeii Castle, the knights went back and the guards helped carry the goods and gold coins. At the castle gate, Lady Sophie, Butler Feilun, William and Mary greeted them together.

Mrs. Sophie, Butler Fei Lun, and William all showed anticipation on their faces. Only little Mary was a little impatient. She kicked her pink leather shoes from time to time, kicking stones away.

"Luther, you're back." When Luther appeared on his warhorse, Mrs. Sophie came up to him, gave Luther, who had just dismounted, a warm hug, and kissed him on the cheek.

Luther patted and hugged Mrs. Sophie tightly, and patted her on the back.

He knew that Lady Sophie must be very worried. After all, this journey was quite thrilling. The next generation heir of the powerful Knight Gandalf was actually murdered.

sky.

After letting go of Mrs. Sophie, Luther accepted the greeting from Butler Fei Lun and looked at William with a smile.

The good guy came to Luther excitedly, gave him a big hug, and said, "Brother, I'm so glad that you are safe and sound."

William was a man of few words, and together with Xiu Xiuya, they were known as the two great stones of Pompeii, nicknamed "the Silent One."

I am so lucky to be able to say this today. It is also an expression of my feelings for my elder brother. Luther smiled and touched William's head, saying, "You should know that I am a knight who is powerful enough to kill monsters. Under no circumstances will I be easily murdered."

"Yes." William nodded heavily. His worship of Luther made him believe it without a doubt.

"Luther, where is my gift?" Mary also came over. She thought that she had a bad relationship with Luther, so she usually ignored Luther, but this time she came over.

For gifts.

Although this sister had a bad temper, she was still his biological sister after all. Luther still loved her very much. He smiled and took out a pearl necklace from his pocket and handed it to Mary.

"Pearl necklace." Mary's eyes sparkled. She quickly snatched the pearl necklace from Luther's hand, then hesitated for a moment and stood on tiptoe.

He signaled Luther with his eyes, as if to say return the favor.

Luther bent down helplessly. Mary gave him a kiss on the face, then ran away quickly with her short legs.

Luther would bet a gold coin that Mary must have gone to the mirror to put on the necklace and admiring herself.

"Luther's necklace is worth at least five gold coins." Mrs. Sophie complained, blaming Luther for being too reckless. After all, Mary was just a little baby.

But my heart is sweet.

Mrs. Sophie was delighted that Luther was so kind to Mary.

"I've made a fortune this time, so not only Mary has gifts, but William too." Luther said this big news with a smile, and then took out a brand new knight's sword from a carriage.

This sword is made of fine steel and is very sharp, much better than William's original sword.

"This is for you, William." Luther said, touching William's head.

If William was not a quasi-knight, Luther would definitely buy 2,000 potions for William. Giving him a knight's sword now is just a small gesture.

"Thank you, brother." William held the knight's sword and hugged Luther again.

This boy is definitely a warm-hearted man, unlike that little girl like Mary who only knows how to cheat for gifts.

Mom would be horrified.

Luther thought happily.

"Oh my god, two hundred thousand gold coins."

Mary has already run away, otherwise she would have scolded Luther, saying that you earned 200,000 gold coins but only bought me a pearl necklace, how stingy.

But William didn't feel anything about the gold coins, he was just a simple boy.

He was very happy to get a new knight's sword.

Mrs. Sophie and Butler Fei Lun, who knew the value of the gold coins, each exclaimed. Mrs. Sophie covered her red lips with both hands, making her look less elegant and more feminine.

Butler Fei Lun widened his eyes. The old butler was always calm, and the shock he showed at this moment was somewhat cute.

Luther laughed happily, then nodded and said, "It is indeed 200,000 gold coins. 16,000 gold coins were used to buy potions. The remaining 84,000 gold coins were left at home. The castle has always been a bit old, so we need to repair it. We also need to improve the food and other aspects. By the way, we also need to pay off the family's debts, and further expand the family business."

After a pause, Luther continued, "As for the remaining 100,000 gold coins, I plan to allocate them to the City Hall to further develop Pompeii."

Leaving gold coins piling up in a vault to gather dust is the greatest humiliation to them.

Luther's creed has always been to spend money if you have it, and borrow money if you don't have it.

Money makes money.

Therefore, Luther would not be satisfied unless these 200,000 gold coins were spent, even if there was only one gold coin left.

uh-huh.

I'm just so willful.

But Mrs. Sophie suddenly became nervous. She held Luther's hand and asked nervously, "Luther, how come you have 200,000 gold coins? Did you do something bad?"

Madam Sophie had never seen so many gold coins in her life. The 100,000 gold coins from last time were not counted because that was not their money.

But this time it's their money.

Of course, she was happy that Luther could take care of Mary and William, but she was more worried about what dirty means Luther used to get the money.

For example, murdering the next generation of knights of the Gandor family.

Luther was actually present at the time.

I have to admit that women sometimes have wild thoughts, especially when facing people they care about.

Luther looked at Mrs. Sophie's frightened eyes and pale face, and immediately guessed something. He patted his mother's hand with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I got it through normal risk."

So Luther gave a brief account of his journey into Eagle Mountain and his meeting with the Eagle King.

There is a kind of fate called mother and child.

Madame Sophie was soon reassured, and on second thought.

"Since the Eagle King is so generous, Luther, you should go in and visit him to see if you can get some more Snow Flower."

Madame Sophie's eyes sparkled.

The idea coincides with Luther's.

Luther nodded happily, and the mother and son looked at each other, both revealing cunning and greedy smiles.
