Lady of the Lord From the East

In late spring in March, Yingfei and grass grow, and it is a good time for spring ploughing of the year.

The plan of the year lies in spring. When the ice and snow melts and the earth rejuvenates, spring ploughing is something that everyone, from the nobles to the commoners, must pay attention to. This will affect their annual harvest and cannot be ignored.

In the past, both Wei Wei and Felix had to personally preside over the spring ploughing, but this year, they left their territory at this time.

Because this year, the eldest lady of the Williams family, Dolores Williams, is going to marry Adonis Aldridge of the Aldridge family.

Dolores' birthday is at the end of February, and this year is her sixteenth birthday and her wedding day.

In February, Adonis came to Sardinson before the ice and snow melted, on the one hand to celebrate his fiancée's birthday, and on the other hand to welcome his bride.

Everyone in the Aldrich family liked Dolores, and in order to show their importance to the bride, the idea of ​​a rich bride price brought by Adonis this time made all women jealous.

But his dowry was still less eye-catching than Dolores' dowry.

Although Europeans also have dowry and dowry when they get married, in general, women's dowry is mostly coins, except for the items she uses daily, so when they talk about women's dowry, they often directly say how much money they have, just As in "Pride and Prejudice", "the ladies of the Bennett have a dowry of a thousand pounds".

The amount of dowry naturally depends on the family conditions of the women, and Dolores, if her father is still alive and at the age when she should get married, may only use a dowry that suits her status, but cannot be considered a generous dowry. Money to marry him off.

But now, Dolores' dowry was prepared by Wei Wei, and she naturally couldn't let the little girl she liked suffer in this regard.

When Dolores was getting engaged, she was already getting ready.

There is no custom of showing dowry in Europe, but Wei Wei, in order to let everyone know how much their family attaches to Dolores, spread these dowries directly for everyone to see before leaving Sardinson.

The dowry left with the Duke's dowry team. The amount of dowry purchased for her was so large that more than ten carriages were installed just for the transportation. If it wasn't popular to prepare furniture in the dowry, Wei Wei could make the carriages. The number doubled again, and the scale was really red makeup. One end of the long line was almost reaching Dingle, and the other end had not yet left the gate of the castle.

The Sardinson Fort, which is still under renovation, is still only inhabited by servants, and many places are chaotic, but this does not affect the left-behind servants and workers standing at the gate of the city to watch the convoy leave. How could there be so few people nearby?

So when I saw it, I was dazzled by the things on the carriage.

The fact that Wei Wei prepared a dowry for Dolores is not a secret in the manor, and even many people outside the manor have heard of it, but everyone knows that the Duchess has prepared a lot of things, but the exact amount is not clear. Seeing the team now, they almost had a collective heart attack.

Not to mention the people watching the excitement, the team members in charge of the transportation, even the two newcomers, couldn't bear it.

Adonis, who rode a horse and walked in front with his brother-in-law, could not help but look back at the convoy behind. He heard the high-pitched gasps of the people who were watching the fun, let alone them. He couldn't calm down.

Just like in the East, the dowry of women in the West also belongs to their own wealth at their disposal. Women’s dowry list is also their own capital. Although they will not directly display their dowry like Wei Wei, the dowry list is not. It will be announced, and the amount of the dowry will affect other people's views of the bride, so at the beginning Wei Wei said that she would show the dowry when she left, and Adonis naturally would not refute his wife's sister-in-law.

But to be honest, when he got the dowry list, Adonis had already started to regret it.

Adonis felt that their family already doted on Elina very much. When Elina got married, the dowry they prepared was already the level of Princess Prady's marriage, and the dowry list was passed out to make all women jealous of men. Object.

But the amount of dowry the Williams family had prepared for Dolores made him panic.

Let’s talk about the gold coins in the first few dowry carriages. It is said that there are 888,888 gold coins. This number is almost equal to the total land tax of the entire Prady Empire for one year. Now, even their family has prepared only 100,000 gold coins for their sister, and the one with the most dowry among the nobles so far is only 200,000 to 300,000, but she is the only daughter with her own title and all other property. Even counting the numbers she just made up, Dolores has so many gold coins alone, and her dowry is more than just gold coins.

The priceless jewelry is set in a jewelry box, and together with a box containing more than a dozen land deeds, a carriage is installed separately. The land deeds are all over the place. , has caught up with the size of a baronial; the furniture has not been beaten, but all kinds of gold and silverware are carefully stored in the box, including the most famous and precious porcelain in the box, or a full three sets! And just these three sets of exquisitely made porcelain can be exchanged for tens of thousands of gold coins!

In addition, there are a lot of cloth and clothes in the dowry, and several pieces of expensive silk can be dug out, and then add other valuable items, such as various Sardinson specialties. The value was converted into money - when Adonis calculated it, he almost fainted.

That amount is almost catching up with the entire property of an old-fashioned aristocrat.

Although he didn't want to marry Dolores because of the dowry, isn't the number of dowries too shocking?

He now feels that if this is not his bride's dowry team, after knowing the wealth of this team, he may not be able to resist sending someone to rob it.

Of course, it is impossible to rob a successful robbery. For the sake of safety this time, Felix has deployed most of the troops in Sardinson County, and the enlarged Knights have followed half of them, just after long-term training. There are 5,000 soldiers in this team, not to mention that someone dares to rob them, it is more than enough to let them attack the noble territory.

"Is this really good?"

Not to mention that Adonis was taken aback by the amount of the dowry, Dolores in the carriage was horrified.

She knew that her brother and sister-in-law would not treat her badly, but with so much dowry, it was no longer a question of whether to treat her badly or not.

Just seeing so many gold coins made Dolores worry that they might have emptied their vaults.

In fact, Wei Wei did evacuate the vault in the castle, but it was only one of them. Their family was so good at making money, and the money they earned back was not enough for a single vault, and it was less than 900,000 yuan. The gold coins they have saved over the years are only a fraction of the gold coins they have saved over the years. Last year, Wei Wei’s business of selling sweet potatoes had more than just a few gold coins. Not to mention 800,000, she could collect 8 million and give it to Doro. Liz's gold coins are really not much in her opinion. If it weren't for adding more, it would be too eye-catching. She can give more, so since she can't give more gold coins, it is the same with land deeds and other things to make up for it. .

So there was this huge dowry that even the big lord of the commercial capital of Adonis was startled.

"Nothing bad, the number 888888 is auspicious, my brother and I both like it."

This number was set by Wei Wei. Six eight sounds so comfortable, and she has the final say about the dowry, and Felix will not be stingy with his sister.

Wei Wei looked at Caroline who was standing at the carriage window and looked out: "Actually, I think it's fine, if nothing else happens, when our Caroline grows up, her dowry should be richer, Williams. The lady at home can't be looked down upon."

"But it's too much!" Dolores was disturbed by the amount of her dowry: "Or you can take those land deeds back, I don't know how to manage them, even if they are given to me, it's useless."

"How can this work, what is given to you is yours." Wei Wei shook his head: "Learn if you don't understand business, I don't like you sitting in the air in the future."

Seeing what she wanted to say, Wei Wei shook her hand: "Okay, don't talk about this kind of thing anymore. The dowry list is all given to Adonis. Let's go back and get things. It's the Williams family who will be embarrassed."

Only then did Dolores shut up.

The bride's dowry was sealed after it came out of Sardinson, and it was delivered to Aldridge County safely. Let everyone know how wealthy the girl in their family is, and it is entirely the goddess of luck that Adonis can marry her.

This kind of behavior is actually very upstart, but it is very useful to the people in Oder City. The most commercial capital is the merchants. Of course, they like the fragrance of gold coins the most, and they will judge a person by wealth the most. By doing this, Wei Wei completely made everyone realize for the first time that their future city owner's wife is a big customer who needs their diligent treatment. At the same time, she also deeply realizes how rich the Williams family behind her is. How doted she is, there are so many things, just a little thing in her hand can feed a large group of people.

But the last carriage finally entered the castle, and those conservative and surprised people came back to their senses, clutching their chests and trembling.

"My God, I have never seen such an amazing dowry, and she really deserves to be the young lady of the Duke's family."

"No, even if the princess is married, she can't compare to this Miss Williams. I'm afraid the whole of Prady will not be able to find a woman with more dowry than her. Oh, we have to exclude that Duchess."

"I think so. I heard that half of Duke Williams' business belongs to the Duchess. God, after seeing their young lady's dowry, I can't even imagine how many gold coins are stored in their castle."

"So the Duke is definitely the richest noble in the whole of Prady, who can marry the young lady of his family. Earl Aldridge is really lucky."

"Speaking of which, there is also a young lady in their family. I wonder if she also has such a rich dowry."

"If the Duke has a daughter, there must be more than this, right?"

"What are you thinking, even if he has a daughter, will it have anything to do with us? Instead of thinking about those unrealistic ones, it is better to think about other things. Look at the nobles and businessmen who cooperate with the Duke, which one is not developed now. Got up? A guy I know has multiplied his net worth several times just because he provided raw materials to the Duke, and I heard that his daughters are now engaged to a baron."

"Speaking of this, I heard that Sardinson County has built a new city, there should be a lot of business opportunities there? Why don't we go and have a look?"

"That city? Isn't it built yet? There shouldn't be any people living there, right?"

"What does it matter? The houses there are all sold to nobles. Shouldn't we, who specialize in making nobles' money, go to see them in advance? Maybe it's too late, and this business opportunity will be taken by others."

"That's true, but let's wait until the count's wedding is over. I don't want to miss this excitement."
