But he also knows that in this world where there is not much entertainment, aristocratic men are either keen on pursuing power and hunting, or keen on finding mistresses and getting involved in foundations. Anyway, they have to be a little hobby in order to kill boredom. time.

Obviously, hunting and chasing power need to bear corresponding risks, especially the former. Once you encounter a monster or a large carnivore wild beast, you are likely to be in danger of death, so most aristocratic men choose After the latter, that is, looking for mistresses everywhere, those with capital can chase the young and beautiful chess pieces of others, and those without capital can play with ignorant girls.

“It’s nothing, our young archmage is worried about too many suitors. I gave him a little advice, that is to get married as soon as possible.” After that, the old George bent down and kissed lightly. Click the back of the opponent’s hand.

“I think this suggestion is good. Chloe is sixteen years old and can take on all the responsibilities and obligations of a hostess, and I also hope to see you bred qualified heirs soon. We must know that our current position is not strong enough. If there is a male heir, many people who are still hesitant will immediately fall to us.”

Anastasia is undoubtedly an excellent politician. , At a glance, you can see the benefits of open marriage to the current situation.

After all, she is not a real power duke in the traditional sense, but a spokesperson who can only come to power with the support of the forces behind her, and she urgently needs some method to stabilize her position.

There is no doubt that in the ideology of the nobility, there are no allies stronger than marriage, so she feels that letting her niece and Andre hold an unprecedented wedding is simply a signal to all nobles The perfect opportunity.

“Have you asked for Chloe’s opinion on this matter?” Andre turned around and asked a little uncertainly.

Anastasia pursed her lips and asked with a playful look: “Do you think Chloe will object? No, I think she can’t wait to become your wife, so please don’t Worry.”

Seeing the words, Andre instantly realized that this is not a simple marriage, but a political show, and immediately nodded with a smile: “Well, I can’t find it. What’s the reason for objection, but please promise me, don’t make it too exaggerated, I hate being stared at by a group of people like clowns.”

“Don’t worry, I swear I will strictly select the guest list, and those who are not qualified Never allowed to appear at the wedding scene.” Anastasia gave a guarantee without the slightest hesitation.

After such a long time together, she is very clear about the youngster’s preferences, and sometimes, the harsh selection will arouse the subconscious comparison behavior of the nobles, which is very beneficial to her.

“Then book a day as soon as possible, when the time comes, notify me two days in advance.” After all, Andre took a deep breath, came to Chloe’s side, and whispered beside her ear Mentioned something about the wedding.

The girl’s eyes showed ecstasy for an instant, and the two quickly disappeared at the end of the stairs leading to the second floor, holding hands.

Seeing this scene, Old George stroked his chest with one hand and bowed deeply at Anastasixia: “Please allow me to congratulate you in advance for successfully marrying a powerhouse with great potential. As long as there are no accidents in the future, Marie will inevitably become the most prominent family in Linton City and the entire South.”

The latter slightly smiled and gave a gift: “I also want to congratulate you, because you are not also Have you formed a close alliance with Andre? Don’t think I don’t know, your income from trade alone has doubled this year, and will continue to increase in the future.”

Old George I didn’t mean to hide it, I laughed and admitted: “hahahaha! You really have turned my bottom up, but your income this year seems to be much more than mine?”

“I The income is about three times that of yours, so I am planning to recruit more qualified soldiers. I wonder if you can recommend them to me?” As he said, Anastasia teased the other party with her eyes.

The first thing any noble has to do after getting rich is to expand the number of troops and subordinates, especially under the reminder of Andre, she knows that there will be a lot of turmoil next, and plans to recruit a group of mercenaries in case for need.

Of course, because of the terrible reputation of mercenaries, you must know the basics, otherwise things like kidnapping and extorting employers will happen.

“Hehe, I am very happy to recommend some mercenary groups with good credit, but what do you plan to use in return?” Old George enjoys this ambiguity and flirting, especially the other party is Lin The only duke in the history of Dun City, just thinking about it makes him excited.

Laureta’s mouth was slightly tilted, extend the hand gently stroking the delicate skin of the woman, and slowly said: “You know? I failed today, completely defeated by my opponent. This is the first time since I became a mage. It feels wonderful, a little angry, a little unwilling, and a little jealous, so I decided to teach him a little lesson.”

Ramona stepped forward quickly. Two steps, affectionately kiss the back of his master’s hand: “Don’t worry! I will personally take action against the youngster called Andre.”
