Chapter 1018 Mask
"This is the first time I've heard of paying for work." Franz complained: "Cousin Elf, for the sake of our relatives, I will personally sponsor you a fleet. Don't talk nonsense in the future, it's easy to cause misunderstandings."
Franz's resentment almost turned into substance because he came all the way to work for you and had to pay for work.
Elf, who was just talking casually, suddenly turned over and got up, staring at Franz with suspicion: "Cousin... did you really embezzle your brother's money?"
To be honest, she just made up a rumor to scare Franz, but she didn't know that this guy would give in so easily.
The only explanation is that what she said casually was right.
Franz's face turned black: "Don't spread rumors, don't spread rumors, if you say it again, I won't pay a penny."
Elf shut up. She felt that her brother would not be deceived, and Franz didn't have the ability.
But she was very happy to extort money from Franz.
Look, you came out of home with nothing, and with a little help from this and a little donation from that, you can start your business quickly, right?
"No, I have to write a letter to my brother," Elf suddenly found a way to make money: "Ask him to get me some more people."
Compared with the various entrepreneurial deeds she had studied before, she could take a shortcut.
When she returned to her residence, Elf told Eunice about her new gains, and she was full of energy: "Sister, it's right to follow me. Look, it's only been a few days, and I have everything."
Two days ago, she was still crying poor.
Now, money, people, equipment and authorization letters, everything is available.
When Franz took out the authorization letter of the Knights, the three of them studied it and found that Liszt was very generous.
Not only did he give her authorization, but he also brought a batch of honorary titles to recruit knights.
With such conditions, even a pig could get things done.
Obviously, Franz is not a pig.
Holding the authorization letter, he quickly suggested to Elf: "The real purpose of this authorization letter is to build a network of relationships.
Disciples of various noble families and children of big businessmen can be recruited.
In the Dark Empire, this authorization letter is particularly attractive.
When the time comes, you can easily get a huge force."
This is the real gift given by Lister. Franz was shocked. This is the real brother.
Thinking of the bad things in his family, he was speechless.
Franz understood, Elf certainly understood, and even Eunice understood.
"There are many consortiums that surrendered from the Blue Star Federation in the Dark Empire. Many of their second generations are not real knights, so they are definitely willing to cooperate with us." Eunice grasped the key point.
Compared with the nobles, these new nobles are more cost-effective and easier to be won over.
However, a trace of hesitation flashed across Elf's face, and then she pretended to be careless: "Tsk, no, my Knights don't want trash.
Even if you have a background, so what? Whose background is bigger than mine? I only want real knights."
Franz opened his mouth to say something, but he quickly reacted and shut up immediately.
He seemed to have guessed Elf's thoughts.
But Eunice didn't understand, and she tried to persuade her: "Elf, this is a good opportunity. We can form more Knights, but this is the only chance to win over the new nobles."
She tried to explain the interests involved to Elf, instead of being willful.
Franz smiled but didn't say anything. He thought it would be good to clarify the relationship between superiors and subordinates through this incident.
Sure enough, Elf, who was always easy to talk to, was angered. She suddenly said loudly: "Enough, Eunice, this is my Knights, I have the final say."
The sudden outburst scared Eunice.
But to be honest, Elf was really imposing at this time, which reminded people of the blood flowing in her body.
Elf stood up and walked back and forth several times.
Although she is willful, she is not a fool.
She just prefers to solve problems with her fists, and does not need to think too much, or use her brain to please others.
But this does not mean that she does not understand.
"I know, I know what you want to say.
But... that belongs to Brother Lister, do you understand?"
Whether it is the upstarts from the Blue Star Federation or anyone else, they are all Brother Lister's team.
She can accept her brother's funding, or even take advantage of it, but there is a bottom line.
Her identity, her blood, and her pride allow her to refuse with confidence.
Elf sat down again, and seemed to have figured it out. She is the decision maker.
"To select knights, you must have qualified knights who dare to fight with me on the battlefield.
Brother Lister's things will always be his."
Franz was prepared. He stood up and bowed: "Yes, Your Highness the Princess."
None of the Augusta family's children are simple.
This fits Franz's stereotype.
Looking at Eunice who was still in a daze, he hesitated and reminded her: "Miss Eunice, you are a good friend of His Highness, so you can say some inappropriate words, but if you want to become His Highness's vassal, I suggest you ask Sir Soran for advice."
Eunice was dizzy and asked subconsciously: "My father?"
She always felt that her father had no ambition. Although she never blamed him, she didn't think she needed to ask him for advice.
Franz is quite familiar with Sir Soran, after all, they are both from the same faction as the eldest prince.
Hearing this, for the sake of the eldest prince, he had to remind him.
"Yes, Sir Soran is a foolish man with great wisdom. He is one of the few smart people I have ever seen.
He can raise a daughter like you. What reason do you have not to believe in his wisdom?"
Although raising excellent children may have nothing to do with the wisdom of parents, truly smart parents can definitely raise smart children.
The excellent Eunice seems to be the result.
Eunice felt that her three views were broken. She had to re-understand her handkerchief friend Elf and... her father.
"Sorry, I need to calm down." Eunice said and sat there without saying a word.
Elf seemed to have forgotten what had just happened. She even asked Franz curiously: "Is Sir Soran very smart?"
She didn't have much impression of Sir Soran before.
"Of course, have you seen a few self-made nobles without military merit? You should have an impression of their wisdom!
And Eunice is here with you now, and her brother is with Elvis. Don't you think it's a coincidence?
A small noble born in the common people, but his children are too outstanding, and he deals with princes and grandchildren, each of whom has a bright future. Do you think it's ordinary?"
After Franz's analysis, Elf realized that there was no ordinary person around her.
She used to think that Eunice was just an ordinary person around her.
Of course, it is a good thing for Eunice to expose Sir Soran's disguise now.
This is also one of her advantages.
