The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

After Aarons moved out of Moti City and established a new base in Conil Village, negative public opinion once again flooded the entire border territory.

However, since the previous press conference had been publicly broadcast within the empire, most of the rumors were not very convincing.

It is said that Aarons is not the biological son of Marquis Moti... He didn't inherit the territory in the first place?

The princess' engagement with him is about to be cancelled, and she will marry another nobleman... So where is that nobleman? If he doesn't come, the couple's baby will be born in two days!

They said Aarons was plotting to rebel against the empire... but he openly supported the third prince in his fight for the throne, so he was rebelling against the empire? Then those who supported the first and second princes were all traitors?

——Although these rumors spread quickly, not many people believed them.

Most ordinary people in the border territories were not very interested in the nobles, so they basically just watched the show.

Infighting among the nobles? Let’s fight! Have more honor duels or something. It would be even better if a few more heirs of big families died!

However, some people are interested in Aarons' recent movements.

"I heard that the useless young master... the Marquis is recruiting people recently?"

"It seems to be the case. The Marquis got a lot of magic cars from somewhere recently and is purchasing various manufacturing materials everywhere."

"They said they would give priority to recruiting ordinary people. Warriors and magicians can also go, but there will be no special treatment... I don't know what that guy is going to do."

Although most people still think of Aarons as that "incompetent and useless young master", they also know in their hearts that Aarons is now someone who can stand on equal footing with princesses and princes.

——Maybe this place will be turned upside down soon.

……

And Aarons has no time to deal with these rumors now.

Although he couldn't help with most of the things in the base, he was not idle either - because Klia had completely handed over the task of presiding over the overall situation to him, so he not only had to think about the next development plan, but also had to integrate those who came to support them.

"You can doubt my ability, but you'd better not question the efforts made by the people here... While we are sitting here chatting, the people in the factory have been busy, Your Excellency."

"You are too kind, Lord Marquis. It's not that we don't trust you, but your previous reputation is indeed..."

"If you are used to judging others based on rumors, why don't you go back and support His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Everyone says that he is a benevolent man who loves his people like his own children. He must be more trustworthy than a loser like me, right?"

And today, Aarons received several honorary nobles who came to inquire about the situation.

Although these people really wanted to place their bets on the Third Prince, they were also worried that their investment would be lost - that was why they came here specifically, intending to dig out some valuable information from Aarons.

"Mr. Marquis, we believe that the Princess and the Third Prince are capable of competing for the throne, so we came here to seek your advice. So please reveal some information appropriately so that we can support the two princes with peace of mind."

"If I don't say anything, you won't support the two princes? If that's the case, please go back."

"This, this... Lord Marquis, would you like to reconsider this?"

Although there are indeed people who are willing to go all in without caring about the consequences, most people are still hesitant - after all, the third prince is still weak and does not have many resources to use.

Without the support of the great nobles behind the scenes, it would be almost impossible to compete with the two princes who have been operating for more than ten years.

"Huh? Then I have to ask you a question first, can you seize the territory in the Battle of Glory?"

"I'm afraid... there is no such opportunity."

"You are incapable of competing with others, but now you are picking on us? Do you think we can't survive without your contribution?"

After saying this, Aarons slammed the table in anger, startling several nobles present.

"If you think we are beggars, then get out of here. I'm done. Xia Ye, show us out."

When the expressionless Aries beauty walked into the conference room with two royal knights, these honorary nobles who had originally planned to bargain left in disgrace.

——And when he finally returned to the office, he found that several distinguished guests had been waiting there.

"Lord Zexiu, Captain Gemaier, why are you here?"

"Hehe, I heard that the Marquis has developed some new gadgets recently. I really want to see it with my own eyes, so I came here."

"The Fourth Legion received the truck sent by the Marquis yesterday... Although I don't know what technology it uses, it's really a good thing."

Because these people are his own people, Aarons had asked someone to send them a few samples, hoping that they could give some new suggestions.

Unfortunately, Aarons originally thought that with the new fuel, he could develop thermal power generation and small batteries in one go. However, a document that Jiang Yue had submitted earlier shattered his dream.

[Alchemical materials containing magic cannot be used to transfer or store energy. 】

——This is the most critical content in the information...so the most convenient rechargeable battery cannot be produced in a short time.

"There are no outsiders here, so I'll just say it straight - Earl Jiangyue discovered another property of the Magic Source Stone a few days ago, so we now have a very convenient fuel, as well as a series of derivative technologies."

"Oh? Those trucks parked outside aren't powered by magic? I see..."

"Have they invented any new weapons? I saw a cannon that could move on its own before I entered the room... Is that also using new technology?"

Because one of them is a businessman and the other is a soldier, they are very sensitive to this new technology that can improve work efficiency.

When Aarons handed them the technical information he had received in the past few days, the two of them immediately began to read it.

"Although I really want to find an opportunity to try these new things, those guys haven't made any official moves yet, and I can't mess around."

"Marquis, I think we can take this opportunity to--"

"I'm very sorry to interrupt your conversation! Lord Marquis, here is an urgent document for your immediate review!"

Just as Aarons was about to chat for a few words, a royal guard knight ran into the office nervously and handed a letter and a document to Aarons.

But when Aarons opened the letter and briefly read its contents, his expression immediately became strange.

"Uh... I was just worrying about not having a chance to try out new things, and they actually started to make trouble..."

"what happened?"

"The royal family has decided to cancel the engagement between Your Highness and me, and has already selected a new fiancé. Five days later, that guy will hold a new engagement ceremony with Your Highness in Moti City, and then it will be officially announced to the world..."

Looking at this unofficial notice that made people laugh and cry, Aarons felt that the corners of his mouth had begun to twitch uncontrollably.

"Can I start laughing now?"
