Succubus' Manor

Chi Yan got up early in the morning. He seldom gets up so early. He usually sleeps until he wakes up naturally. When he opened his eyes, he found that it was only dim outside, and the temperature had not yet risen. Eyes, looking sideways at Kleist's sleeping face.

When Kleist fell asleep, his expression was very soothing. Chi Yan felt that if flowers were used to describe people, only Ghost Orchid and Kleist had similar auras. Lan is pale, and Kleist has black hair and black eyes, and his skin is not so pale that it doesn't match.

Chi Yan watched for a long time, and even started to count how many eyelashes Kleist had, but before he could finish counting, Kleist woke up.

Kleist didn't expect Chi Yan to wake up so early today. Chi Yan usually sleeps until the sun is high. He stretched out his arms and hugged Chi Yan, who had slept on the other side at night, into his arms. stick, intimate.

Chi Yan also saw the hickey on Kleist's neck.

Hey, I am really wild.

Chi Yan remembered the sitcoms he had watched before, and felt that he could also have the nickname of a wild boy.

He laughed at the thought, and pinched the skin on Kleist's waist - Kleist had no fat, so he couldn't pinch it.

"You didn't tell me how things were going last night."

Kleist put his hand on Chi Yan's waist, and his chin rested on the top of Chi Yan's head, so that Chi Yan held his whole body in his arms. His voice was a little hoarse and very nice: "I asked them to take the slave Bring it over, what do you think then?"

The tip of Chi Yan's nose touched Kleist's chest muscles. He said "hmm" and thought for a while: "Choose a few more days, and how long it can be delayed. Anyway, they are the ones who are in a hurry."

This method was a little shameless, but Chi Yan didn't think it was bad.

Morality depends on who you talk to, and morality is even more nonsense to the people here.

Chi Yan said a few more words, but his voice became smaller and smaller, and he fell asleep again in Kleist's arms.

Compared with Chi Yan's leisurely, many people didn't sleep well and got up before dawn.

Benjamin is one of them. He has been in Stettin for a long time. Originally, he only planned to stay here for a few days to replenish food and necessities, and then continue on the road to buy a house in the holy city. Buy some fields outside the Holy City and rent them out to civilians, and then live their own lives.

But after he came to Stettin, he didn't want to leave.

He has never seen such a city, it seems to be new all the time, the market that is open every day, the newly opened night market selling cooked food, and the canteens with cheap and affordable prices are all things that Benjamin has never seen before, even Haven't heard of it.

If someone told him there was such a city when he was at home, he would definitely think that the other party was making up nonsense.

Anyway, he is reluctant to leave now.

Since I don't want to leave, I have to find a house to settle down. I can't stay in a hotel all the time. Although the hotel is good, the asking price is really high.

Although he bought a batch of wine and sold it to small merchants who couldn't afford it at auction, the money kept flowing out, so he had better save a little.

The maids also agreed with Benjamin's idea. They quickly inquired about the house and bought it at the price of three silver coins. This house is not very good, but it is not bad. The only advantage is that it has a yard , There are some common local flowers planted in the yard, and there is a tall ginkgo tree in the middle, so the price is still very affordable.

It's just that when the original owner moved out, he took away all the furniture, leaving only an empty room, and Benjamin had to let the maids arrange the house before moving in.

After staying in the hotel for a long time, Benjamin has also met a few people, but they are all women—he doesn’t know how to deal with men, and once a man gets too close to him, he will feel sick to his stomach, which is impossible Controlled, when his father hugged him when he was a child, he could vomit all over his father.

Later... the family stopped getting close to him, and he became an invisible person.

He didn't hate men at first, but he couldn't stop his body's reaction, and then gradually he really hated men.

Lilia is the best friend that Benjamin has made recently. After all, she is a businessman. She can speak well and knows how to build a good relationship with people. She also sees that Benjamin is definitely not from a commoner background. It didn't take a few days Time to get acquainted with Benjamin.

The two try to sit together and chat.

"Let me ask someone to buy furniture for you. You are busy moving in. It is best to buy ready-made ones." Lilia sat in Benjamin's room, holding a handful of soybeans in her hand.

Benjamin nodded, he sighed, and said with some sadness: "It's not urgent."

Lilia said strangely: "It's not urgent, do you have something urgent?"

Benjamin pursed his lips and nodded: "Yes."

Lilia became even more curious: "What's the matter? Tell me, maybe I can help you."

Benjamin glanced at her, as if he was weighing it, but he really had no choice now, the only people who could help him were men except Lilia, and Lilia approached him on purpose, so why didn't he lure Lilia on purpose? What about getting close to yourself?

"I want to see the lord." Benjamin sighed, "but it's not feasible to go to the castle to give gifts, and gifts can only be sent to the lord's personal servants and housekeepers, and you can't see the lord himself."

Unless it can be sent all the time until the lord is impressed, but Benjamin does not have such a large financial resources.

Lilia rolled her eyes: "You first tell me why you want to see your lord. If there is a good reason, maybe I can help you figure out a way."

Benjamin sighed: "I won't lie to you, I can't tell you the reason, but I can assure you that as long as I can see the lord, he will definitely keep me."

Lilia smiled on her face, disapproving in her heart, and said in her mouth: "If you don't tell the reason, it will be difficult."

Benjamin glanced at his maid, and the maid standing by took out a small sack from the cabinet, and handed it to Benjamin. Benjamin opened the bag and pushed it to Lilia's. in front of you.

It was a bag of polished gemstones slowly.

Gems are not considered before, but Carlos’s gems can be sold at the best price, because Carlos has a unique method of polishing gems, and the dusty gems in other people’s hands can become glorious in their hands eye-catching.

"These are sapphires, and there is a bag of rubies. If I can meet the lord, I will give you both bags." Benjamin said generously, as if what he sent was not a bag full of gems, but a bag full of gems. pieces.

Lilia was surprised by Benjamin's generosity, but she was even more surprised: "There are red gems in it, and there are green ones, how can it be called rubies?"

She is not a gem merchant, and she has never bought gems herself, so she doesn't know.

Benjamin explained: "Except for the red gemstone which is ruby, all other gemstones are sapphires no matter what color they are. For example, the green one should be green sapphire when it really sounds like it."

Lilia admired it, and thought to herself: What kind of nonsense name is this, green should be green, and it must be called sapphire.

Lilia picked up the green gem, her eyes flashed with amazement. Although she has dealt with messy goods all year round, she doesn't hate shiny things, especially gems. Rich nobles even use gems as buttons, or It is made into brooches to decorate clothes. If she can get these gems for free, it will be very profitable.

Even if you don't use it yourself, selling it is a big profit.

"It's not difficult to meet the lord." Lilia sincerely advised Benjamin this time, "However, the lord rarely comes out. If I want to see him, I have contacts."

Benjamin quickly asked, "What connections?"

Lilia smiled and said, "The cook in the castle has a good relationship with me, and she also needs a chance now."

After all, a new cook has arrived, and Amelia's position in the castle is not awkward, and the new cook is not stupid, and has already won over some servants.

Benjamin heaved a sigh of relief, and Lilia reassured Benjamin that she would definitely give Benjamin an answer within ten days, whether it could be done or not, and then she took the bag of gems confidently.

Lilia walked out of the hotel, stood on the street and took a deep breath.

There are people coming and going on the street, there is no feces on the road, and there are no flies flying around. The stone slabs on the ground have been paved, so you don’t have to worry about being splashed on your heels and skirts by dirty water.

She heard people passing by saying, "Food prices are cheap again!"

"Tofu is also cheap. I'm going to buy some tofu today and cook soup at home."

"There's not much work in the fields outside. My man doesn't need to be too tired. He can earn thirty copper coins a month."

"The merchant still collects wooden baskets and wooden frames. My man goes out to work, and I weave baskets at home. I can earn more than ten or twenty copper coins a month."

"Me too!"

"After the lord came, our life is getting better and better."

"I heard that the lord is from Saket."

"Where is Saket?"

"I don't know, it must be a city, but I don't know where it is. Tell me, if your lord can come to us from another city, will he leave... Stettin?"

"Bah, bah, stop talking! Can you say something better?"

"I know, and I hope my lord can stay here forever."

"As long as the adults stay here, we can live like this forever."

"That's right, I heard that people in other places can't eat bean dregs cakes. How can we live better?"

"I still want to take my sister's family over."

"My uncle asked the businessman to tell me that he and my parents are in his hometown, and they can't afford enough food, and the master has to increase taxes."

"At that time, let's raise money and ask the businessman to help us take over the family. Now it's easy to find a job, and we can earn money to fill our stomachs with good hands and feet."

How happy I am to have work and not be hungry.
