Chapter 30 I want to make money now!
As a young man from the Celestial Dynasty who traveled through modern society, Rorschach's way of thinking is more advanced and avant-garde than anyone in this era.

He is also not a machismo, thinking that men are a head taller than women.

There are some things that a man can do, so can a woman; there are some things that only a man or a woman can do.

Men and women each have their own functions, so there is no need to haggle over every detail.

And those who dare to muster up the courage to say no to difficulties are worthy of admiration!

Therefore, when Penelope looked at him nervously, waiting for his answer, Rorschach suddenly became serious, and answered the question from the bottom of his heart:
"Women are also part of this country, and of course they should have the right to vote! I don't see anything wrong with fighting for your own rights."

Rorschach's sincere answer made Penelope, who supports women's voting rights, very happy.

Looking at Luo Xia's blue eyes, they were already filled with deep trust.

He was really special, totally different from those other men.

He is willing to listen to different opinions, rather than blindly disagree.

If it is him, he will definitely support me!

The approval of others made Penelope's suppressed desire to confide in her heart seem to have found a channel to vent:

"Yes!"

"But in Rhodes Town, that dirty and disgusting place! The other members of my family, as well as the Gray family... those men who lived in the dark age, wish to deprive everyone of their rights and restore them By the feudal age..."

Speaking of the excitement, Penelope blushed and clenched her fists: "They said I shouldn't participate in those activities, it will only bring shame to the family's reputation. I just want to fight for better benefits for women. That's all..."

"Those men thought we were going to take their jobs, take everything from them..."

Seeing that the always elegant and polite rich lady suddenly turned into such an indignant warrior, Rorschach couldn't help but sigh.

This soft girl is quite thoughtful.

Rorschach still has a good impression of such a progressive woman.

Naturally, he also didn't want Penelope to be like the leader of the feminist organization in the game, dancing too much, so as to cause death.

After considering the words, Luo Xia said again:
"I don't think this type of effort from you and other women will go unnoticed."

"However, before you succeed, you have to protect yourself well. Although it is indeed honorable to die for a noble ideal, but living is more valuable than dying..."

For the value of life, Luo Xia, who has wandered around from the gate of hell, has a deep understanding.

Facing Rorschach's deep black eyes, Penelope, who was a bit upbeat, seemed to calm down slowly:
"You're right..."

At this time, perhaps the two of them were chatting so intensely that other guests in the tavern had noticed their discussion and were peeking over here.

With a blink of his eyes, Rorschach took out a one-dollar bill from his trouser pocket, put it on the table, and said casually:

"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's go out and get some air."

Hearing this, Penelope turned back into the quiet and elegant rich lady again, and nodded obediently.

Perhaps because he shared his thoughts and opinions at once, Rorschach also listened carefully and recognized it. Penelope suddenly felt that the distance between himself and Rorschach was much closer.

Standing up, she took Rorschach's arm again, and suddenly approached his ear, whispering:

"Thank you, Rorschach. Thank you for listening to me. I... I have no friends in the manor to talk to."

Feeling the faint scent of soap wafting from the other person, Rorschach frowned, "You're welcome, Penelope. If you don't mind, you can tell me anything."

After a pause, he did not forget to make a shut-up gesture with his index finger on his lips, jokingly said, "I promise I won't tell anyone!"

Seeing this, Penelope smiled like a flower, and held Rorschach's arm tightly, as if afraid that this man would run away from him:
"Okay!"

. . .

Penelope stayed here for two days.

In the past two days, apart from asking about the situation of Downs Ranch and the moonshine business from time to time, Rorschach spent almost all of his time walking around with Penelope.

Sometimes I go boating by the lake, sometimes teach her how to ride a horse, and sometimes go to the ranch to cook dinner for the ranch workers.

And Penelope has no airs of a rich lady at all, treats people kindly, and works very hard to adapt to a life different from the manor.

This made Luo Xia a little surprised, and his affection for her also doubled all of a sudden.

Who doesn't like such a simple, naive, kind and soft girl?

However, what Rorschach didn't know was that when Penelope was trying to adapt to all this, she cheered herself up like this in her heart:
Come on!

Penelope!

If you marry Rorschach in the future, there are still many things to do in order to be a competent wife.

Why not start studying now and perform well in front of him!

If Luo Xia knew what was going on in her heart, she would definitely not be able to help but complain:

Girl, are you thinking too far? !
At the same time, the moonshine wine business is progressing gratifyingly.

Because moonshine wine is not taxed, it is cheaper than normal alcoholic drinks, and has higher purity, so it is very popular among Valentine's alcoholics.

Of the remaining [-] bottles of bootleg wine, half of them were sold in just two days, and the sales reached [-] US dollars.

Archie told Rorschach that after deducting the cost of [-] US dollars, the [-]% profit share, and labor expenses, the final profit of this batch of wine will be [-] US dollars!

Luo Xia suddenly felt that selling wine was more profitable.

However, such a huge profit is only this time.

Only [-]% off your next batch of wine from the Braithwaite family.

Moreover, from next time onwards, transportation costs and escort costs must be borne by oneself.

This is another expense.

Even so, Rorschach did the math, and for every six hundred bottles he sold, he still made roughly $[-]!

Selling alcohol in this way is much more profitable and safer than risking your life to hunt down wanted criminals.

Although the relationship with Penelope heated up rapidly, and she noticed the undisguised favor of the eldest lady for herself.

However, Rorschach is not in a hurry to develop further with Penelope.

On the one hand, I know that I will leave this world sooner or later, and it is really not suitable to establish a long-term emotional relationship with others;

On the other hand, it is also because he still has tasks to complete.

You know, his top priority is to earn thirty thousand dollars within half a year.

Although girls are fragrant, tickets are even more fragrant!
Borrowing Hao Ge's classic quote:

I don't believe in bullshit romantic love stories right now, I want money now!
What's the use of being envious of others, we have to act on our own to become richer than others!
Of course, making money is not the most important thing, but it is the premise of important things.

Money is not everything.

But without money, absolutely not!

In Rorschach's plan, enough money is not only for completing the mission, but also a valuable resource for saving Arthur and even the Van der Lin gang in the future!
