Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries

[Loyalty: 60 (following the horse’s lead)]

[Introduction: A knight who is unwilling to be ordinary, but has no choice but to be ordinary]

'loyalty? 60? Sure enough there is a problem. ’

After taking a look at the opponent's panel attributes, Gudern knew something strange about his predecessor's attack.

When he was attacked, there were only two or three members of the guard who were supposed to be there to protect him, but Reg, as the captain, arrived late after the battle.

No matter how stupid he is, from the memories left over from his previous life and the verification on the panel at this moment, he can still analyze that this guard captain must have his own little ninety-nine.

However, Gudern did not show any special expression at this moment, but glanced at the butler Joseph beside him.

[Name: Joseph]

[Occupation: Housekeeper]

[Strength: Awakening]

[Entry: conscientious, loyal to the Lord]

[Potential: Ordinary]

[Loyalty: 100 (absolute loyalty)]

[Introduction: Although he does not have any outstanding skills, he is a trustworthy person]

The loyal panel surprised Gudern, but considering that the other party was appointed from the family, it made sense.

The situation of the two of them was roughly understood, and Gooden was thinking quickly in his mind.

The attack on his predecessor revealed all kinds of weirdness, but he unexpectedly came back to life.

If there was another round of assassination, he couldn't bear it. He had to eliminate this risk in advance.

At this time, Irene brought the prepared meals to the table and placed them one by one.

The aroma of vegetable soup and the alluring smell of barbecue made Gooden's appetite whet his appetite. He quickly moved the vegetable soup in front of him and put the hard bread that almost knocked out his teeth into the soup to soften it.

Then he cut a small piece of meat with a knife and fork and stuffed it into his mouth. He glanced at Eileen who had left, and Gudern mumbled something vaguely.

Good job informing the Imperial garrison,

This made Reg, who was still a little nervous, completely relax, but the young master's next words made his hairs stand up.

I suspect that someone in the Guard wants to harm me. No one has defected in the past few days, right?

No...no one defected. Reg responded with a slight stutter before he could react.

Okay, you go tell the guards to assemble. I'll come and verify it myself after dinner. I hope I guessed wrong...

Gudern deliberately lowered his tone at the end and shook his head appropriately.

Yes, Master.

Reg put his right hand on his chest, and after saluting, he immediately went to arrange the young master's tasks.

After exiting the restaurant, Reg took a long breath. After the young master regained consciousness, his whole person seemed to be a little different.

Those few words just now almost scared him to death, but fortunately, no doubts were raised in his head.

After shaking his head slightly, he hurriedly went to summon the people below to be verified by the young master later.

In the restaurant, Gudern threw away his arms and ate the food on the table, interspersed with inarticulate sounds.

Old Joseph, is there anything unusual about Reg during the past few days since I was in coma?

When asked this question, Joseph also understood that he was doubting Reg.

Master, do you doubt him?

It's not suspicion, it's affirmation. When I hunt, I always pick places randomly. How did that group of gangsters find me?

An unexpected encounter? I have no grievances with the other party, so why would I kill him? Although it is possible that he does not know my identity, as long as he catches me and asks, he will know. A noble heir can be exchanged for a large amount of imperial gold coins.

In addition, as the captain of the guard, I was nowhere to be seen when I was attacked. He didn't show up to save me until I was about to die. It's impossible that I didn't notice this group of people before that, right?

Joseph was a little surprised by what Gudern said. He also had doubts about the strange attack on the young master, and speculated that there might be a traitor.

But I didn't expect that the young master could analyze the whole matter so thoroughly just after he woke up. Is this the same young master who just spent every day and drank wildly?

Gudern didn't care about the other party's expression. Anyway, he could believe in his loyalty. It was impossible for Goldfinger to stab him in the back, right?

He picked up the delicious vegetable soup and drank it all in one breath. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and asked.

By the way, when did Irene come to work in the castle?

The sudden jump in the topic made Joseph stunned for a moment, and he quickly thought about it and responded.

That diligent little girl? She's been here for a year. What's wrong, young master? Does she have a problem too?

No, I think she's pretty good. Let her be the head maid.

Joseph: ...

Gudern's words gave Erin a promotion and a salary increase. At this stage, he didn't have any good ideas to gain favor, so he might as well borrow his identity and get a salary increase first.

At this time, it was said that Cao Cao had arrived, and Irene came to the restaurant to report.

Master, old butler, the Charleson family sent someone here, saying they wanted to talk to the master about the debt...

Chapter 4 Debt Crisis

The Charlesons? Debt?

When Gudern heard the name, he automatically associated relevant information in his memory, but then he frowned.

Why did his predecessor leave him so much trouble?

The debt problem can be said to be simple or complicated.

It's just that the two noble lords next door joined forces to steal his money. One family had no money to develop minerals, the other had money, and he acted as a middleman to borrow money for development.

As a result, there was a thunderstorm in the mine, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead after the attack. The Charleson family who borrowed the money had to come forward to collect the debt.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was a pit, but his predecessor still jumped out without hesitation and took over this huge pit.

But he is the one suffering now. At this moment, he really wants to curse, but he holds it back for the time being in order to maintain his image.

Looking at Erin, Gudern thought quickly and asked.

You didn't reveal what happened when I woke up, did you?

No. Erin shook her head.

That's right. Don't reveal my information later. Now take people to the side hall to wait.

Yes, Master. Irene nodded lightly and immediately went to make arrangements.

Gooden turned his attention to the butler.

Old Joseph, you will attend on my behalf later and try out the other party's attitude.

good.

Go ahead, I'll be listening, and I'll come out personally depending on the situation.

Gudern stood up as he spoke, went to the sink nearby, wiped his greasy hands clean, and rinsed his mouth.

Then, guided by memory, I walked around to a dark room in the side hall, where I could clearly hear the sounds inside, and there was also a very hidden small hole for observation.

Gooden was amazed at this design. This kind of place is simply a holy place for some people!

In the side hall, the envoy of the Charleson family had already met with Joseph and started to get down to business.

I'm sorry to visit you at this time. We deeply sympathize with Master Gudern's situation, but we have to discuss the debt issue separately...

You also know that the situation on the border has been unstable recently. The Charleson family has emptied their treasury for the sake of their people. We really need this debt urgently.

The opponent came up with a combination of punches, and Joseph, who had a lot of experience, responded unhurriedly.

Master Gudern is personally responsible for the debt issue. I don't know much about it. How about you stay here for a few more days and wait for the master to wake up and discuss it in person?

Joseph had already become proficient in He Xini's operations, and he threw the ball back in just a few words.

The envoy of the Charleson family obviously did not have this patience and went straight to the point.

I'm not here to discuss this matter with you, but to inform you.

If there is no way to pay the arrears within seven days, I'm afraid we can only see him in the imperial arbitration. By then, the lord of Qingyuan Town may have to change his name.

Gudern, who was hiding aside, raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Is it such a big deal?

Go to the Imperial Arbitration Office to take away your own territory for three hundred imperial gold coins?

Even under such a naked threat, Joseph still did not panic and spoke slowly.

That's very welcome. I'd like to see where the Arbitration Council stands with what you've done.

you!

The other party was so angry at this that he didn't know what to say, and then he said a harsh word.

Just wait. If you can't collect the debt within seven days, just wait and collect the body of your young master!

After saying that, he got up and left the castle, riding back quickly.

After pretending to be cool, you have to run away quickly. This is the other party's territory. If the other party can't think of it and stops you, it will be the end.

Joseph didn't care about what the messenger said before, but the last sentence clearly aroused his anger, and he frowned slightly as he looked at the messenger's back.

After a while, Gudern, who was hiding in the dark, came to the side hall.

The other party's attitude is very tough. How much money do we have on hand now?

If I remember correctly, there are still 13 gold and 64 silver left.

The old butler quickly reported his family fortune to Gudern. After all, as a butler, he had to keep an eye on his finances.

That's all that's left?

Joseph thought the young master was to blame, so he quickly explained: It cost a lot of money during your serious injury. I spent a lot of money to hire a priest from the nearest big city...

Gooden was a little surprised, but he didn't mean to blame him. After all, the lavish spending was all done by his predecessor.

At this moment, Joseph suddenly remembered the letter he received yesterday. Although it seemed a little uncomfortable to say it at this time, he still had to remind the young master.
