Although Aarons has done a lot in the past two days, the key problem has not been solved.

He only had ten gold coins in his savings, and the only person he could use his skills was Karin. With this level of ability, let alone recovering the territory, even the people in this city would not even look at him.

In addition, I will most likely have to go to the imperial capital in a month to await my fate. In such a short period of time, it might be better to do nothing.

"I'm short of money, people and time. It looks like this mess is going to fall into my hands."

As long as he has one of these, Aarons would dare to give it a try.

"Master, I have examined the children. Several of them have good physical fitness. With proper training, they should be able to feel the fighting spirit soon."

"Tsk, this makes me seem even more useless...where's that kid?"

"That little guy named Els is probably just one step away from level two. If he can be properly taught, he may reach level three before he reaches adulthood."

Although level three is not a particularly outstanding level, it is the entry threshold into the combat industry.

Full-time soldiers, bounty mercenaries, and Warcraft hunters, most of these well-paid professions have a minimum level of three. After their income increases, it will be easier to obtain resources for cultivation.

Therefore, for many people, whether or not one can successfully enter level three is the dividing line of life.

"Is that so... Then you can be responsible for teaching those children who have Dou Qi talent how to train. Even if you can't use Dou Qi yourself, the training methods are the same, right?"

"Are you going to let me teach them? I've never taught anyone else... I don't know if I can do it well."

"It doesn't matter. What they can train to is their problem. It has nothing to do with me."

If there is time, Aarons wouldn't mind training these kids a little more.

But he really doesn't have the leisure time for that now, and the funds he has are not enough for him to squander.

"Please post this notice on the street outside the door, and let me know if anyone comes to visit."

"Is this... looking for a servant who is good at finance or chores?"

"Don't ask for too much, just be willing to work for the money."

Since there is still little hope for the future, Aarons simply starts to try his best.

He couldn't think of a quick way to make money, nor did he know how to deal with the empire's judgment. So the only way out was to find a few smart people with ideas to think about countermeasures together.

Of course, this kind of wishful thinking is generally not possible.

"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll go down and check on the kids."

Because he cared a lot about the children's education, Aarons had taken out a lot of books from the Marquis's study and used them as temporary teaching materials.

Although many books do not contain any useful content, they can still be used to learn literacy or common sense.

"Master, these children you brought are really sensible. My own children are not so lovable."

In front of the door of the downstairs living room which had been turned into a special reception room for the children, Aarons met the old gardener who looked obviously happy.

However, in the unfortunate guy's memory, the reason why the old gardener Raoul had worked in the Marquis's house for thirty years was because all his family members had unfortunately died due to the invasion of a neighboring country twenty years ago.

The empire did not completely eliminate the threat of invasion from its neighbors until ten years ago. Before that, border residents often suffered casualties due to covert sabotage activities.

"Then old man, you should spend more time with the children and put other things aside."

"How can this be possible? The old servant is still..."

"You go and teach the children what they need to pay attention to when living here. This is an order."

Aarons didn't want the overly loyal old gardener to work too hard.

Although the supervisor couple was very responsible, managing the children took up all their energy. Although Karin was also very obedient, she was not good at doing anything other than fighting.

Therefore, in the end, Aarons had to do all the chores in the Marquis's mansion himself.

"Tsk, I don't know when we can recruit people."

After sending the old gardener into the children's room and taking a look at the situation inside, Aarons walked out of the mansion and into the front yard.

Although he tried his best to think, he still couldn't find a way to break the dilemma.

"My previous experience is totally useless...or rather, I don't have any successful experience."

My previous self got drunk at a farewell dinner because my company went bankrupt, and then I inexplicably traveled to this world.

The mess in this world is even more outrageous than anything he had seen in his previous life, and it is simply not something that someone of his level can solve.

"No cheats, no starting funds or teammates, and I'm required to complete the game within a time limit... I'm not a hardcore speedrunner, so why is my level so difficult?"

Although he really wanted to find and talk to the guy who allowed him to travel through time, he also knew that even if such a person really existed, he did not have the ability to argue with him.

However, just as he was walking around the yard, thinking about all sorts of things in his mind, Karin, who had just gone out, suddenly ran back.

"Master, I have something to report to you."

"Hmm? What's going on? Did you meet anyone outside just now?"

"Yes, just now when I was posting notices nearby, someone suddenly came up to me and asked if the house was short of staff."

Is there such a good thing as giving a pillow as a gift when you feel sleepy?

However, Karin seemed to still have a lot of doubts. After hesitating for a moment, she continued to talk about the details.

"The person was almost completely wrapped in a cloak, so I couldn't see clearly what he looked like. But judging by the voice, it should be a young woman."

"Oh, isn't that nice?"

"And...she said she was also an alien, and she came to me yesterday because she saw me working for you."

This statement seems to be fine, but Aarons also feels that it is indeed a bit too coincidental.

Due to some historical reasons, foreigners are not well-received in the empire. Although the imperial people do not obviously exclude them, they do not allow them to obtain a higher status than ordinary people.

What is the purpose of this alien coming to me during such a sensitive period?

"She's still outside, right? Take me out to see her."

"Master, aren't you afraid that the man was sent by another force to monitor you?"

"Let's not talk about those trivial things for now. It's always good to have one more person in the mansion now."

Aarons didn't think he was anything worthy of being spied on.

The most powerful marquis and his youngest son were already dead, and it was almost impossible for an incompetent waste like me to inherit this territory. Once this period of time was over, I would naturally be expelled from this land by the empire.

So at this time no one would focus on him.

"Let's go, let me see what's so special about that alien."
