The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Chapter 427: Bosdia Dragon Plane 4

The Michelin family of Nord City is a distant branch of the Michelin family of Blizzard City. By the time it came to McGee's generation, they had lost their manors outside the city and the shops in the city, and their living conditions were getting worse and worse. Except for a noble title that was in name only, they were not much different from the common people in the civilian area.

Originally, they could still maintain their life, but their mother's serious illness used up all the family's only savings. Now, they can't even live a civilian life. If they don't go out to work, they will have to "beg for food" next.

When Hand heard the news from some of his recent friends, he didn't take it seriously. The rise and fall of nobles was normal, and he believed that Master Colin would not pay much attention to it.

But Hand's idea was obviously wrong. Colin was just waiting for a similar opportunity. He told Hand to deliberately approach the other party. If necessary, he could arrange for the other party to work at home to reduce Hand's workload.

After hearing this arrangement, Hand was also moved. The master taught me martial arts and was afraid that I would be tired, so he planned to recruit a temporary worker. And when choosing the temporary worker, he chose the Michelin family who could not make ends meet for some reason.

Master Colin is so kind. How could there be such a good man among the nobles? I am so lucky.

Although there are only a few members of the Michelin family left and they have long lost their aristocratic heritage and style, there are still some sources of information.

When Hand, the "big celebrity" in the city recently, came to his door, McGee Michelin was also moved. Although he didn't know what the other party's purpose was, it did not prevent him from receiving the other party warmly.

"Mr. Hand, please sit down. What do you want to talk to me about?" McGee asked.

"Although I feel a little embarrassed, I still need to do my best to do what Master Colin has arranged. It's like this. The master has just arrived in Nord City, but there are many things to do at home, so he still needs a helper. I wonder if Master McGee is..."

As soon as Hand said this, McGee understood that they wanted to hire him for a job. Although he didn't know why Master Colin chose him, he was now penniless and had borrowed everything he could, but didn't get much. His mother still needed to buy medicine, so he must seize this opportunity.

"I'd like to, but I don't know if I can do it."

"Ah, Master McKee, won't you consider it?" Hand didn't understand. Even if you have been a little tight lately, you are still a noble after all. How can you work for another noble?

"Don't think about it. Thank you, Mr. Colin, for your appreciation, and thank you, Mr. Hand, for coming here. Tell me the address, and I'll go there tomorrow."

"Uh, it's the fifth one on Jingsi Lane in the north of the city. Do you know where it is?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Hand. I have lived here for more than 20 years and I am very familiar with the city. Please tell Master Colin that I will be there as soon as possible."

"Okay, then I'll go back and report."

……

"Mom, that's good. I found a job." McGee said to his mother excitedly.

"It's hard for you, kid. It's all your mother's fault. This body has been a burden to you. We have sold everything that can be sold at home. Your father passed away early, and our branch in Blizzard City rarely interacts with us. Sigh..."

"What are you talking about, mother? This is what I should do. How can I not take care of you? Others can work, so why can't I? Our branch is far away from ours. The other side has already given up on us. There is no need for us to beg them."

As everyone guessed, McGee Michelin's father was a distant branch of the Michelin family in Blizzard City. His father's grandfather was the son of the head of this branch and a maid. Although he was awarded the title of knight based on his military merits, he had to leave his hometown due to his family's wishes and eventually settled in Nord City.

After McGee's father's grandfather came to Nord City, he had no source of income, but with his good martial arts and noble title, he still attracted the attention of some small businessmen. Later, McGee's father's grandfather bowed to reality and did not choose other nobles, but chose to marry a small businessman.

(It’s not that he doesn’t want to find a noble lady, but the circle among nobles is actually very small, and others also know that he is a bastard.)

Later, the small merchant family failed in business and could no longer support McGee's father's grandfather. The family's finances used to be able to maintain the dignity of a noble, but by the time it was passed down to McGee's father's generation, it was almost the same as that of commoners, except for some noble utensils in the house.

In order to maintain the glory of the nobility, McGee's father joined the army early, hoping to regain the family's honor through military merit, but inevitably died in a dangerous mission, and his mother became seriously ill.

McGee was still young, and his mother's condition was getting worse, so they could only make a living by selling things. Fortunately, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and McGee grew up healthily until he was eighteen years old.

Recently, his mother's condition has worsened, and McGee can only seek work opportunities to make a living. It happens that Hand, the new "big shot" in the city, invites him, so what else can he do?

Just do it. Even if the other party has some ideas, McGee can't care less.

"In short, be careful in everything you do." Mother still told McGee with concern.

"Don't worry, mother, you will get better."

……

On the other hand, after leaving McGee's house, Hand came back to report to Colin.

"Master, the other party agreed and will come tomorrow."

"Well, you've worked hard. Go down and practice the basic stick techniques ten more times."

"Master..." Hand thought that the master would arrange other things for him, but he didn't expect that the master would urge him to practice.

"Go!" Colin said without question.

Time passed quickly and the next day arrived soon.

McGee Michelin put on the only decent clothes in his family and found Colin's residence.

When Hand brought McGee to Colin, McGee saluted Colin with a hint of nervousness and some aristocratic reserve, and took the initiative to explain to Colin why he was willing to work.

Although Colin already knew what McGee said, hearing McGee say it again felt different, like another person being overwhelmed by life.

"Okay, Sir Mackey, you are of noble birth, and I won't assign you any other work. You can be my butler first. I will live here for a while, so I'm sorry to bother you during this time. As for your salary, how about three gold coins a week?"

This amount is definitely a high price. According to what Hand has inquired these days, the weekly salary of a butler is generally around two gold coins.

"Master Colin, you are so kind. May the Dragon God bless you." McGee bowed sincerely to express his gratitude.

(Colin has never revealed his title. The Bosdy Empire believes in the Dragon God. This world is not a religious world, but the royal family and nobles all have dragon blood.)
