European Emperor Cultivation System

Chapter 69 The First Pot of Gold
"The task is completed, gain strength +2, intelligence +2, strategy +2, skill points +2."

"Oh, there is a strategy, and finally it is not streaking." Li Peijun was very happy, and there were more than a dozen sailboats at hand. Although they were only enlarged versions of fishing boats, they could not be compared with those hundred-ton merchant ships in Arabia. It's better than nothing.

At first, Li Peijun wanted to keep the remaining sailors on the ship as coolies, but after thinking about it, he thought it might cause the dissatisfaction of the nobles, so he handed over their disposal rights.

The dozen or so ships basically did not carry any valuables. After all, the pirates themselves came to make a fortune. There were only a few cured meats, hard black bread that looked moldy, and barrels of sour wine. All shipped off the ship.

However, these dozen or so makeshift ships were sold by Li Peijun to the chamber of commerce in the city at a reasonable price. Since he had no use for them anyway, he might as well cash them in. After all the supplies were used, Li Peijun gained something this time. It was quite good, and I got four hundred soles.

"Tsk tsk tsk, not bad."

In terms of price, Li Peijun only withdrew a small amount of silver coins. After all, four hundred silver coins could be filled into two large bags, and it was inconvenient to carry them. Most of them were directly exchanged for real items at the market, which were the livestock and farm tools he needed most at the moment. , and also bought some flower seeds to prepare for trial planting.

"Get rich overnight." Li Peijun grinned from ear to ear. The day before, he was at a loss, but today someone rushed to give him warmth.

You don't have to worry about being misled by others. After all, you are the lord of the city. When choosing goods, Li Peijun doesn't have to worry about being short of weight. He can always buy what he thinks of in sufficient quantity and quality.

"Lord, you really know things like a god, you are really insightful like a god." Bosang also grinned and flattered.

Li Peijun didn't want to admit the credit, so he just gave way modestly.

"Now that the pirates have been repelled, there will be no more attacks in two or three months. Let's buy more businesses. Production has dropped a lot."

"Yes, my lord." Passant saluted and swore his loyalty.

"Your task has been completed today, so just help me take the few livestock I just bought to my manor and hand them over to Weiner and Birmingham to take care of them." Li Peijun patted Possang on the shoulder Exhorted.

"It is my great honor to serve the lord."

Possang immediately drove the livestock out of the city. The second son of this family knew everything, and he looked like an old hand at driving pigs and cattle. Li Peijun remembered what he had heard from Dekes.

Li Peijun lingered in his heart with a confusion: the second son, should he be treated like this?
Even after fighting off a wave of pirates, the mist on the sea has completely faded, and the clear and soft light can only be seen at seven or eight o'clock in the morning. Timekeeping was quite inconvenient at this time in the Middle Ages. Li Peijun could only make a rough estimate. time.

The nobles rushing to help came late, the disheveled attendants revealed the haste of action, and the lineup with only a dozen or so people also showed their attitude.

"My lord, Auster's rescue came late, please forgive me, did the city suffer any losses?"

The men of Oster and Kaqi stood still at the same place. The two leading nobles dismounted first to plead guilty, and the knights behind also bowed their heads.

Seeing that Li Peijun was always looking at his posture, Oster and Kaqi began to justify themselves. It was nothing more than a rush of time, and they sent the fastest mobile cavalry to reinforce them.

"I'm fine, and the city is fine. The pirates let us catch them. Basically, the whole army was wiped out."

Li Peijun waved his hand. Now that the matter has been settled and there is no need for them, it is natural to send them away to make some peace.

"Oh, Lord, you are so brave. You have only been in office for a few days, and your achievements and martial arts are so impressive."

Kaqi quickly flattered, and Auster followed suit for fear of falling behind. They were all old-fashioned statements, which made no waves in the heart of the old driver Li Peijun, and even wanted to laugh a little.

"Okay, okay, you are interested, please come from a long distance, please come back." Li Peijun also politely returned the gift.

After inviting these disinterested nobles back, Li Peijun finally felt at ease. The first bucket of gold in his life was actually obtained from a pirate, and it was a bit of a talking point to talk about it.

This is not the first time this bold and ambitious guy has acted alone. The last time he attacked the city of Rouen, he also ate a leopard and dared to directly try to launch himself into the city alive. Maybe he just watched too many Hollywood movies. The sequelae - personal heroism.

When he returned to the monastery, the priest had just started his daily worship and prayer. Listening to the content of the bible reading, it should have just started less than a quarter of an hour. After saying hello, Li Peijun yawned and went back to himself The troubled things were diluted by the sudden luck, and tiredness once again occupied the whole body.

When he opened the door, the maids had already passed by in front of him. The daily work of the day was going on in an orderly manner. Bernard and the other three guys were sitting and enjoying the fruit wine and bread comfortably. It seemed that they had adapted to eating. During breakfast, Catherine, who looked anxious, saw her sleepy look and threw herself into her arms.

"Do you know how worried I am about you?"

Li Peijun vaguely felt that his chest was soaked, so he couldn't say anything, he just hugged him comfortingly.

"I've said it all, Bruno, apart from being too brave, there's nothing else, nothing will happen." Bernard said, chewing mixed bread of mixed thickness.

"Can't sleep, went out for a walk, and beat up a pirate by the way." Li Peijun snickered and narrated what happened in the morning.

"Sol, who owes you, is now fully returned, not bad."

"Mr. Bernard is right at all. You are really courageous. Can you be more safe in the future?"

Catherine took Sol without even looking at it, and directly grabbed Li Peijun's ears.

"Okay...okay...you let go first, I promise you, I won't do any risky things in the future."

After hearing this "reliable" promise, Catherine also "temporarily" let Li Peijun go and sat in front of the stage. Li Peijun also joined the dining team for the luxurious breakfast in the monastery.

"Now that you have robbed a wave of pirates, you can count on some start-up funds. Do a good job in production and so on. It's time for you to update your equipment."

Li Peijun shook the remaining Thor in his purse, and managed to get together a few suits for several people. After all, the problem of food and clothing was solved, and the light on his face was also indispensable, and Li Peijun was no exception.

"Let's go visit the head of the Lower Posang family in the afternoon. I've never seen him before. The eldest son doesn't look like a good person. I don't like the thick eyebrows and big eyes. Why isn't the second son, who is naive, the head? It’s not convenient for me to do things.”

While tearing off a piece of bread and dipping it in the wine, Li Peijun was talking about his next arrangements, mixed with some complaints of his own, and everyone just followed the orders without having too many opinions.

"I only set it up in the afternoon. What are you going to do with the rest of the morning?" Cohen asked, full of curiosity, and Catherine moved her little head aside.

"Hehe, of course it is..."

Li Peijun, who was slightly tipsy, looked a little dazed. He didn't know whether it was because bread dipped in alcohol made him more intoxicated, or because he simply lost consciousness and fell down on the counter because he was simply too drunk.
