“Brother!”
While Luther was talking to Magellan, the training was over. The boys and girls wanted to come over but were hesitant. William had no such concerns and trotted up to give Luther a hug.
"You've become stronger." Luther patted his brother's back happily, and then asked, "How far are you from the knight?"
"It feels like it will be fast. He should be able to become a knight before he turns fourteen," William said.
William is different from Luther. Luther became a knight at the age of sixteen because of his poor talent. William has better talent than Luther, and has magic potions and ancient training methods.
So progress is rapid.
"The pressure is so great. If I don't work harder, I might be surpassed by my younger brother. Then I will be ashamed." Luther muttered to himself, while touching William's head. He had short golden hair and it felt very soft.
"Come on, I'm proud of you."
"Yeah." William nodded heavily, with a look of pride on his face.
"You guys should also work hard and strive to become the pillar of the Pompeii family." After a moment, Luther let go of William and came to the boys and girls and said.
"Yes, Your Excellency Governor." The boys and girls were extremely excited.
They are all fan girls and fan boys.
Soon after, Luther entered the castle and came to Madame Sophie's study.
"Hi, Luther." Mrs. Sophie was still working as usual. When she saw Luther, she smiled brightly.
He got up from his chair, gave Luther a hug, and kissed Luther on the cheek.
"Mom." Luther also hugged Mrs. Sophie heavily, and then Luther said: "Mom, the family is different now. You don't have to work so hard. You can hire many assistants to help you handle the work."
"I don't feel comfortable handing over the family business to outsiders." Lady Sophie was a capable and dedicated lady of the lord. She shook her head when she heard this.
The mother and son hugged each other and then sat down.
"How is the family business now?" Luther asked.
"Small businesses are expanding, such as wheat flour mills, clothing stores, jewelry stores, etc., which have expanded to the entire White Eagle Territory. However, the market for Pompeii wine has shrunk, and it is currently only operating in the White Eagle Territory."
"But the factory is still producing at full capacity now, and the extra wine has been stored."
Lady Sophie said.
The original Pompeii wine was sold through an agent system, but now that the war has broken out, the system has been abandoned. Now the Pompeii wine business in the White Eagle Territory is sold directly by the Pompeii family.
The idea of storing the wine was given by Luther, and the war was bound to end. Pompeii wine was also a golden hen that laid eggs.
Moreover, the longer Pompeii wine ages, the more fragrant it becomes.
"I'm relieved to leave the business matters to you, mom. But I still say that you shouldn't work too hard. The Pompeii family business is still a very important source of income, but it is no longer the most important one." Luther said cryptically.
Mrs. Sophie had actually guessed that Luther had another source of income. After all, she was in control of the Pompeii family's cash flow.
"Okay." Mrs. Sophie liked Luther's care very much and nodded with a smile.
"By the way, did you take the potion I provided to you and Mary?" Luther asked again. Now that he had money, Luther provided potions to many ordinary people.
Family, Lelouch, Teacher Joshua, etc.
Luther is a nostalgic person and will not give up those close to him.
There is a saying in China that goes, if one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit.
Luther wants to lead everyone to live a good life.
"I'm eating. I feel a lot stronger. Although you have income, isn't it a bit wasteful to prepare potions for Mary and me?"
Mrs. Sophie was relieved, but also a little worried.
"Mom, mom. Oh, Luther, long time no see. Give me a gift." Mary suddenly rushed in, and when she saw Luther, she quickly stretched out her little hand.
This girl has been spoiled by Luther and asks for gifts every time they meet.
As for whether Luther was living well or suffering outside, this girl didn’t care.
"Mary, call me brother." Mrs. Sophie scolded with a stern face.
“What does it matter? I’ve been called Luther since I was a child.” Mary curled her lips, then came to Luther and stretched out her hand.
"Gift."
"Alas, what a failure of family education." Luther sighed, but still took out two necklaces from the space ring, one large and one small, but both were dazzling without exception.
"Here." Luther gave the small necklace to Mary, and then handed the big one to Mrs. Sophie.
"Mom, you will be more radiant with it." Luther said to his mother with a smile.
"You kid." Madam Sophie said with a smile, taking the necklace. Compared to the potion, the necklace was much less valuable.
Since I have already taken the potion, there is nothing wrong with accepting Luther's necklace.
"Thank you, Luther." Mary smiled and waved with her right hand. Luther bent down helplessly. Mary kissed Luther on the face and then trotted away.
"What do you want to see mom about?" Luther couldn't help asking.
"I forgot it," said Mary, looking back.
"Mom, you have to find an etiquette teacher for Mary later." Luther couldn't help but say.
"This child is uncontrollable." Mrs. Sophie sighed worriedly.
After the annoying little girl Mary left, Luther chatted with Madame Sophie for a while, then walked out of the castle and headed towards the town hall.
The new town hall is very impressive.
There is a white eagle emblem on the door and a white eagle flag on the roof.
In front of the door, there were two knights wearing military uniforms, white gloves and holding knightly swords on guard.
"Governor." The knight stopped and saluted Luther.
"Thank you for your hard work." Luther smiled. On the way, he called out "Governor, Governor" many times. After a long time, Luther finally arrived at the mayor's office on the second floor.
The mayor's office is naturally built and decorated in a very grand manner.
The main desk was large and luxurious, and there were two white eagle flags on both sides of the desk.
Anyway, if the flag was changed to the American flag, Luther would have thought he had entered the office of the President of the United States.
Lelouch is such a conceited guy.
But Luther was still very happy when he saw the White Eagle Flag.
As for Lelouch himself, he looked fatter and stronger. If you spend a lot of money on magic potions, even a pig can be turned into a high-level knight.
Just like Baron Barton and Viscount Silver Wing back then.
Lelouch has special supplies from the mayor, and he can slowly raise his knight level.
"Welcome back, Governor-General." Lelouch of course also saw Luther, put down his pen, pushed away his chair, and gave Luther a big hug.
"Look at how fat you are. Things must be going very smoothly in the territory recently."
