My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

"Who lives in those villas over there? Is this place being developed? Can I buy one?"

It was unlikely. There were too many people in Camino, and land was scarce. Wu Pingting thought that the buildings she was referring to in the distance, which were almost completely blocked by the woods, would have been built by the developers to be sold to wealthy families besides the nobles.

Nuannuan said, "The ancillary buildings of the castles are where the maids and bodyguards live. Due to the hierarchy system here, their statuses are much lower than the main household's, so they live further away and are blocked by the trees."

"Oh my God! Your maids live so lavishly in such beautiful villas! Is that really suitable for maids to live in? You're not lying to me, are you? Just looking at them, I think some of these buildings are even more beautiful than the Wu family's residence! Nuannuan, I want to come to your palace and be a servant!"

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Nangong Nuannuan could not help but stretch out her hand and flick Wu Pingting's wrist.

"You just think that the buildings here are very old, like ancient castles, and very expensive. But in actuality, the daily necessities and furnishings inside them are very simple. Many people in the Duke's mansion have worked here for generations. If their whole family works here, they can have a house like this."

"Your family treats them very well."

"We do. Anyway, my father is not a poor man. As long as the servants are loyal, he treats them well."

Wu Pingting asked, "So other dukes' mansions won't provide such good treatment to their servants, right?"

"Of course. My father is the richest man in Luntan."

"That's great! So it's not important whether you become a duke or not. What's important is whether you have money. Your father is so rich! It's nothing for him to be generous! But you should remind your father that servants can sometimes get cocky if they started to feel entitled to privileges. They may take all of these amazing resources, and then turn round and betray their master."

"Don't worry, that rarely happens in this mansion."

Wu Pingting was puzzled. "Why?"

"Because behind the high salary and benefits, rebelling here is worse than rebelling in another duke's mansion."

Any servant who betrayed the Duke's mansion would not be spared, no matter what. Duke Eton would expose their betrayal in front of the other servants, break their limbs, and chase them out. Additionally, based on the severity of the betrayal, some were harmed so badly that they completely lost the use of their limbs. The rest of them became vagrants, because even if they got their arms and legs treated and ran out to find a job, he would tell other companies to blacklist them. They would pay for their betrayal with a lifetime of regret.

His servants knew that he hated traitors and that betraying him was not something that they could get away with lightly. Therefore, it had been a long time since a traitor showed up in the Duke's mansion.

Today, Nuannuan's itinerary was exposed to Su Fei.

Nangong Nuannuan chuckled.

Someone quickly reported Nangong Nuannuan's return to Duke Eton.

Duke Eton rushed out of the castle, got into an open-top car, sped past the sea of lavender, and drove over to Nuannuan and her friends.

Before Duke Eton got out of the car, he called out affectionately, "Sunny! Chi Yang! It's great to have you back! I'm so happy to see you! These three are your friends, right?"

Nangong Nuannuan introduced Duke Eton to Sze Lingyun and the others one by one.

Since they were Nuannuan's godfamily, the three of them greeted Duke Eton politely.
