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

Aarons certainly didn't understand why he was feared, but he was in no mood to care about what others thought.

"Regardless of what that guy's purpose is, he did give me an inspiration."

"Do you mean to add a clothing customization business to the Marquis's family?"

"Even if the territory is gone by then, I can probably get a stable income from this. But besides you, I don't know if anyone else can make clothes in this style."

At present, the clothes of Aarons and others are all specially sewn by Xia Ye using her weaving magic. Even if the style and design can be imitated, the fabrics that have been specially strengthened by magic are not found everywhere.

"【Weaving】is the innate magic of my tribe. And those special fabrics in your memory can only be made through my magic."

There are no fossil fuels or rubber in this world, so there are almost no chemical fibers or plastics. Although there are many plant fibers as substitutes, most of them require compound magic to process.

"But even without this special fabric, an ordinary tailor can easily make similar clothes. If a magic processing factory is used, mass production will not be a problem."

"After all, they are just some clothes... Never mind, let's keep this idea for now."

Although Xia Ye can produce high-end clothing with excellent protection and comfort, its style and design can be easily imitated by outsiders.

It is not easy to make a lot of money in this way, so Aarons doesn't plan to think about it anymore.

"There's nothing wrong with your idea, but it's better to start moving forward with your plan after you become famous."

"But the problem now is this reputation... Tsk."

Although Marquis Moti is a famous nobleman, the eldest son of the Marquis is a well-known waste.

Unless he finds some way to reverse this reputation, even if he is able to inherit this territory, there will be many people who will not accept his management.

"Let's take back the mine first. At least we need to get the money first."

No matter what you plan to do in the future, money is a necessary and top priority resource.

At this moment, Karin suddenly walked into the study.

"Master, I just went to visit the children... Meili told me that the old man's condition is not optimistic and he has been bedridden today."

"...It's so fast."

The huge mental blow caused serious damage to the old man's already weak and old body, and turned ordinary minor illnesses into incurable terminal illnesses.

The result was irreversible, so Aarons didn't know how to face the old man.

"I'll leave the old man to them... I won't show up for now, so let me maintain my cruel and ruthless attitude to the end."

"Yes, I will report any changes to you immediately."

After reporting the matter, Karin immediately returned to her post.

However, Xia Ye didn't seem to be very interested in this and just waited for Aarons' instructions with an expressionless face.

"You should go and do your own thing. I need to think about what to do next."

——After watching the Aries Witch in a professional suit leave, Aarons’ brain began to work.

Just because he seized a mine, it did not prove that he had the ability to control the territory.

The emperor deliberately set aside this month, not only to test the ability of the marquis's heir, but also to select other candidates who could control the territory.

If your performance is not good enough, then this territory will naturally be handed over to someone else.

"What if the goal is to at least keep the territory within the city?"

Although there is no precedent to draw on, this option may have a higher chance of success than demanding the retention of the entire territory.

If he could establish control over the surrounding areas during this period of time, he might be able to request the emperor to allocate this small area to him.

Other marquisate cities that are no longer under control can also be taken over by the successor.

"But if we do this, we must at least demonstrate sufficient financial resources and popularity..."

After taking back the mine, he could get a stable income to run the city. But the most important thing was his reputation, which he had no way to improve.

People have been comparing Aarons with his genius brother for more than ten years, and no one thinks that the eldest son of the Marquis who will never achieve anything in his life has the possibility of inheriting the territory.

"What should I do?"

Until he gets the answer, Aarons has no way of predicting the future.

……

The next day, the Marquis's Mansion actually received a report from the Kulan Mercenary Group.

Did they really find out the situation over there in less than a day?

Aarons was skeptical at first, but when Xia Ye handed the report to him, he immediately changed his mind.

"…How did these guys do it?"

——The first page of the report is a hand-drawn bird's-eye view of the mine, which not only details the locations of entrances and exits, roads and various facilities, but also specifically marks the movement routes of guards and workers.

"...Not only does this place produce magic source stones, but you can also dig up a small amount of raw spiritual gold stones? No wonder the profits are higher than those of ordinary mines."

Spirit gold is a special magical mineral. Although it is not the main raw material for gold coins, the empire will use it to draw special magical marks when minting coins to prove the legitimacy of the currency.

"I got some information from outside before. There has always been a small amount of spiritual gold of unknown origin circulating in the black market of the Marquisate. Now it seems that these things all come from here."

"I understand what you mean... If this intelligence is false, then their fabrication skills are outrageous."

Although he had no idea how the mercenary group had managed to conduct such a thorough investigation in such a short time, Aarons' experience from his previous life told him that most of the contents of the report were probably true.

"But if that's the case, then they probably already have most of the information on my side. In addition to your true identity, they probably even know exactly how many people are in our family."

"I don't want to brag, but I am probably the only trump card you have now. If you decide to use my power, please be prepared to pay extra."

"Tsk..."

Aarons knew that Xia Ye was actually actively seducing him.

If I indulge in her power, I will become even weaker. And when I can no longer afford to pay her, she can naturally abandon the agreement and turn me into pure food.

"Of course, if you want to solve this problem yourself, I will do my best to help you. But in that case, please don't let the situation escalate to the point where a direct confrontation is necessary."

"I know...Okay, go and tell the leader to come over now. I want to talk to him again here."
