The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem
Chapter 15: The Anger of Singles
Aarons asked Karin to take the children of the orphanage and the manager and his wife back to the Marquis's Mansion first, and then he turned around and went to the shopping street again.
Now that he had some money, and the family would soon have more people, Aarons decided to buy some furniture first so that the Marquis's Mansion could at least accommodate dozens of people.
"Oh, this kind of thing actually has to be done by me personally, how aggrieved."
Although he said so, Aarons immediately returned to his petty-bourgeois nature of his previous life when he arrived at the shopping street - no matter whether he was buying a bed or a cabinet, he would bargain with the store owner for several rounds before reluctantly paying.
"What? You don't care if it's delivered to my door? Are you planning to let me drag this cabinet home by myself? No!"
"Stop, Master! We'll send it to you right away!"
"Little guy over there, give me a copy of those newspapers you have. I want both the Empire Weekly and the Morty Leader Tabloid."
The Armand Empire distributes a newspaper to the whole country every week. Most of the reports on it are praising the royal family or commending outstanding talents, and there is not much meaningful content.
Although ordinary people generally do not subscribe to this kind of official newspaper, for the nobles, it is an important channel to understand the intentions of the royal family.
Aarons certainly knew this. After all, the official news he paid attention to in his previous life often hinted at the direction of policies.
"Even though they reported the plane crash, they said they haven't found out the identities of the victims yet? The investigation will take a month... Is that my deadline?"
Aarons's guess was not wrong, the empire now did give him a chance to prove his ability.
If he could achieve some results in this month, the empire might allow him to inherit the title of Marquis. But the problem was that he was currently unable to control this territory.
In the Marquisate's own tabloids, some reports of varying degrees of credibility claimed that several towns on the outskirts of the territory had begun to operate independently and had hired mercenaries to ensure security.
These places seemed to be planning to take advantage of the opportunity to build up their own military power. Even if the possibility of breaking away from the empire and becoming independent was very small, they could still bargain with the next lord later.
"You idiots, you really think you can do whatever you want just because you are far away from the emperor."
Aarons was so angry that he almost laughed out loud, and he threw the newspaper he had just read into the trash can on the side of the road.
We have neither the right time, the right place, nor the right people, so we can only take one step at a time.
"……who!"
Just as Karin said before, it seemed like someone was watching him from the dark. But Aarons turned his head suddenly and did not see any suspicious figure.
This feeling was indeed not good, so Aarons decided to go home quickly and make arrangements at home first.
……
"Master, why did you bring back so many people?"
As soon as I entered the courtyard of the Marquis's mansion, the old gardener immediately came over with an anxious look on his face.
"I went to the orphanage. The housekeeper had made things so bad that the house was almost unable to function. I thought that since no one was living in the house now, I asked them all to come over."
"Oh, Master, you are so kind... Let the wolf girl move in all the furniture that was just delivered. But you have to adjust some of the spiritual tools yourself. Neither the old servant nor the girl understand them very well..."
——The so-called spiritual weapon is actually the electrical appliance that Aarons used to use in his previous life.
Because these things use the spiritual power released by the magic source stone to drive magic to work, people are accustomed to calling them spiritual weapons.
When Aarons saw those spiritual tools whose appearance and functions were almost the same as the telephones and televisions in his previous life, his fantasy about this alien world was shattered a little.
It seems that my little scientific knowledge is really of no use.
"Wow, isn't this just like that?"
After arriving at the restaurant on the first floor of the Marquis's Mansion, Aarons saw the children who had been sent from the orphanage sitting on both sides of the long table, chattering about something.
The couple in charge of the children were cleaning the room at this time, and when they saw Aarons, they immediately put down their tools and knelt down.
"Master Aarons, thank you for your kindness..."
"No need to bow to me, stand up, I am not used to people kneeling to talk to me."
After seeing this scene, the children quickly quieted down. Most of these orphans were only five to ten years old and did not understand what was happening.
"The children will be able to eat well and sleep well in the future, all thanks to you."
"...Don't thank me. I'm just making up for the mistakes my family made."
The Marquis may have had good intentions in establishing the orphanage, but some evil people took advantage of his kindness to enrich themselves and harmed these children.
Aarons just felt that since he was a member of the Marquis's family, he had to take on this responsibility.
"My husband and I will take good care of the children and try not to cause any trouble to your family."
"But Master, the kid named Els who almost offended you just now... may not listen to us."
Boys of that age are indeed not very obedient, and Aarons, who has experience in his previous life, understands this very well.
"I don't know what he did just now, but he provoked Miss Wolf in your house... and then he was taken to the backyard."
"What? I'll go check it out now."
Although Aarons didn't mind the rebellious child, Karin might not show mercy to him. Karin had almost beaten the child before, and now that he was not there, someone might die.
Aarons didn't want to live in a haunted house where someone had died, so he immediately ran to the backyard.
"...No! We have to leave here! If that noble young master sees Xiaomei, he will definitely do something terrible!"
As soon as he entered the backyard, Aarons heard the boy's screaming. He quickly approached the source of the sound, only to find that a black-haired girl of the same age as him was hiding behind the boy.
"What bullshit are you talking about, kid! Even if the young master had that kind of idea, he would have come after me first!"
Originally, Aarons wanted to hide and see what was going on, but after hearing Karin's terrible speech, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and barge into the confrontation.
"What are you doing? You guys are going to cause trouble again when I'm not around for a while, right?"
"Master? You're back."
"What's up with those two brats? What are they planning to do in my house?"
Looking at the boy who was very frightened but still stood up to protect the girl, Aarons roughly guessed what was going on.
Youth is so great... No, I never got a girl when I was this age in my previous life!
"They are the two oldest children in the orphanage. They just told me that they want to leave here together. They would rather starve to death outside than accept your shelter."
In order not to interfere with my work, this young master doesn't even dare to look at the beautiful girl next to me. But you want to act out the drama of childhood sweethearts flying together for love, right?
——The young master, who had extremely rich experience of being single in two lifetimes, was angry.
