The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem
Chapter 21 An unexpected invitation
Aarons' plan was put into action the next day.
When the eldest son of the Marquis moved several worn-out suits of armor out of the house and posted a notice of sale, many people in the city came to watch the fun.
"Ahem! As everyone knows, there have been some minor incidents in my family recently."
Although everyone knew that the Marquis was dead, Aarons did not intend to admit it himself.
After all, as long as the empire's announcement was not issued, the territory would still belong to Marquis Moti in name. And now the only one in the Marquis's family who could still speak out was the useless young master Aarons.
"Because these little things at home are annoying, I have consulted the Marquis and decided to take out these old items to show them off. If anyone likes any of them, you can come and talk to me about the price."
This kind of thing cannot be accomplished overnight, but Aarons was mentally prepared.
Most people are just there to watch the fun, and even if they have money they won't buy such things. But with them present, people who really spend money might be attracted.
In order to attract attention, Aaron deliberately asked Karin and Xia Ye to stay by his side, and did not mind showing their alien identity and beautiful faces to the people who were watching.
"Hey, look, why is there another girl next to the young master?"
"Not only is the hair white, but there's something so outrageous... What are those horns? Is it a cow?"
"Damn it! This useless young master obviously doesn't know how to do anything, so why does he have two beautiful foreign girls serving him?"
People's discussions soon turned into various speculations, which was also one of Aarons' strategies.
After all, the useless young master had a bad reputation before, and no one thought he had any ability worth seeing. But now seeing that two foreign beauties would take the initiative to serve him, some people naturally began to re-evaluate the current strength of the Marquis's Mansion in their hearts.
"Is there someone who can take charge hidden in the Marquis's house? He found two strange girls to parade around for this useless young master. Was it to divert other people's attention?"
"I heard that Inhuman girls are generally unwilling to serve human masters. They have to reproduce for their own tribe, but they can't have children with humans."
"They actually ordered these two girls to be servants of this useless young master against their will. It seems that there is someone hiding behind the Marquis's family."
People love conspiracy theories at all times.
Aarons always acted arrogantly, never saying anything about his family, and never mentioning the origins of the servants around him.
Seeing that this good-for-nothing young master was still so confident despite facing a disaster, some people had begun to believe that there might really be a big shot in the Marquis's family who had never shown up in public and was planning and managing everything behind the scenes.
"Why, do you think what I brought out is not good? Then I have to explain it to you."
Since it was just a made-up story, Aarons simply brought out things from his memories of his past life.
"First, take a look at this white armor. It was once worn by an elite knight under the Marquis! The knight's name was Lei Arom. He was originally a craftsman who tinkered with spiritual weapons in the seventh district of the imperial capital. But after joining the Marquis, he became the 'white devil' feared by the enemies at that time!"
The Marquis started his career about thirty years ago. At that time, wars were frequent on the border of the empire. Many wandering knights and mercenaries had fought for their lives here, and indeed left behind many fascinating stories.
However, no one can verify the authenticity of these stories now.
"And this! The red armor next to it belonged to the old enemy who had fought to the death with the brave knight several times! Although that man was the enemy of the Marquis, he was invincible on the battlefield at that time. He could even fight with his opponent at three times the speed of an ordinary person. He was a very powerful opponent!"
Aarons was certainly not afraid of such a lie being exposed. After all, if there really were two such people in the world, he would just quit and run away.
"I seem to have heard a similar story from my old man. Could it be that the nonsense he said when he was drunk was true?"
"There are so many stories like this! Who should this young master have heard this from?"
"…But the Marquis's coat of arms is real."
Aarons dared to speak nonsense in front of so many people, and what he relied on was actually the coat of arms of the Marquis.
The family crest, which is made with special magic and materials, is used by every imperial noble with a fiefdom to prove his or her identity.
When a noble is granted a family crest, he or she will receive an exclusive magic seal. Since the seal must be used with the blood of the head of the family or a direct descendant to verify identity, it cannot be used by outsiders even if it is accidentally lost.
Fortunately, Aarons had found the seal in the Marquis' study before.
"And this one! The knight who wore this armor fought for his life against many enemies under the command of the Marquis, and he defeated many enemies along the way. In the end, he personally stabbed to death a mercenary leader who was about to enter the fifth level! It's a pity that he was stimulated by the tragic battle and became crazy and disappeared."
——If no one came to stop Aarons, he would even plan to tell him everything he had seen in his previous life.
"Are you Mr. Aarons from the Marquis Moti family? I have heard a lot about you. I am interested in the things in your house. Would you be willing to come over to my place and chat for a while?"
Just as the crowd was slowly getting crowded, a man dressed a little differently suddenly walked out of the crowd and took the initiative to approach Aarons and talk to him.
"Oh? Are you interested in these things? But I was just joking. These things are the treasures of the Marquis' family and will not be sold to foreigners casually."
The man's attire was obviously somewhat different from the imperial style, and Aarons could tell at a glance that he was not a local.
After all, this is a city close to the border, and traveling merchants from neighboring countries often stop here for supplies, so it is not surprising that foreigners stop here.
"Hey, Master, you may not know that I just like these old things. Even if you don't plan to sell these heirlooms, maybe we can do some other business?"
Finding that the other party seemed very determined to establish a relationship with him, Aarons put away his frivolous attitude and pretended to be dull.
"You want to do business with the Marquis family, right? All right! Let me put these treasures back first, and then I'll go to your place to see what new things you have!"
Seeing that someone had taken the initiative to invite Aarons to negotiate, the discussions in the crowd became even louder.
But Aarons was in no mood to care about those ordinary people. He originally wanted to catch two small fish to make some money, but now it seemed like he had caught something else.
"By the way, I plan to take these two girls with me. Should that be okay?"
"Of course not. Please feel free to do as you please."
——But it doesn’t really matter what you catch.
