After the ghost attack, Ji Guo's wife, who survived the ghost's mouth by chance, went crazy.The countess, who tried her best to help her husband win the title and followed her to the sky, only enjoyed the beauty of the hostess of the Nagano family for a few years before losing everything.

Her husband's dishonorable death, her revelation, the charges brought by the judiciary and the ridicule and ridicule of others, the most important thing is the physical disability and mental shock, all of which completely collapsed the woman who lost everything overnight.

It was also because she was crazy that she poured out all the details of what she had done back then. The truth came to light, and Mrs. Ritsuko pleaded with the judiciary out of a last bit of affection. In the end, the police did not ask her to fulfill her legal responsibilities. Instead, he agreed to send her to a related mental hospital.Anyway, her situation is not much better than going to prison to serve her sentence.

A pair of jackals, tigers and leopards, which could threaten their lives at any time, disappeared from the Earl's Mansion, and the mother and daughter of the Nagano family were completely relieved.

There are more important things to do next.

"Tou." Madam Ritsu looked at the girl, "The announcement from the government has also come down, and the title of Earl will be returned to my direct line. Toru, I hope you can inherit the title of Earl."

Tou Wenyan was about to speak, but Mrs. Ritsu hurriedly spoke again.

"Don't rush to refuse, at least listen to my reasons first, okay? Xiaoniao and I survived this time, and even regained the title from Nagano Tsukatsu because of Toru's help. Without you We can't do anything." Hugging her daughter's thin body tightly, Ritsuko smiled sadly, "Little Bird has been away from this house for too long, and was thrown into a slum by her cruel uncle's family before. There are too many things to learn, and I dare not think that if this child accepts her father's title, can she handle everything behind. This is just one of the hidden dangers, another important problem is... the Earl's Mansion has no money gone."

Although Tsukatsu Nagano deserved his death, he also used despicable means to take over the property under the name of his elder brother, but the inheritance tax handed over when he took over was real.

In the same way, now that he is dead, whoever wants to take over his estate will also have to pay inheritance tax.We all know that inheritance taxes have always been very high.

Mrs. Ritsuko, who had spent all her money on the dance to create momentum, really ran out of money.

Although Mrs. Ritsu knew very well that it would be easy for the child to get money from the fact that she easily ruined Jisheng and his wife's reputation and went crazy, but she couldn't be so thick-skinned.

His own daughter easily inherited the title and property, but the price behind it is all paid, what is this like?

Moreover, Mrs. Ritsuko wanted to inherit the position of Earl of Nagano, but she actually had a secret selfishness.

She didn't say it, but Tou saw it, so she spoke directly.

"Ma'am, you don't have to do this. Even if I don't need the title to bind me to the Nagano family, I won't stand idly by." After all, the self and the mother in the previous life, who can lose it after such a miserable life, "But I am not omnipotent, and it is even less likely that I will stay with the two of you forever. The future of the Nagano family should not rest on me, but on Kotori."

The little bird who was named was at a loss.

"You don't have to feel indebted for what I have done. If I said that taking care of Xiaoniao was purely helping, now I have my own considerations for regaining the title for the two. I want to use the name and influence of the Nagano family to do something of my own. doing. So we sort of get what we need.”

The Taisho era was actually very short, only 15 years, but in these 15 years, it was the most active golden age of party politics in Japanese politics.The political landscape that had been set in the heroic age is only now beginning.

The reason why the Taisho era was so short is also because Emperor Taisho was seriously ill and the crown prince took over the government, but his initial involvement in political affairs was insufficient. Many things were determined and judged by the elders of the Chinese ethnic group. They were all nominated and suggested by the elders, and with the acquiescence of the crown prince who never objected, it became a case that the nomination must be won.

With such a great opportunity in front of her eyes, Tou really wants to try, whether she can sit in the position of prime minister in the Taisho era of this parallel world.

In these aristocrats, in the political arena, and in the official arena, she wants to have a good experience. No matter whether she succeeds or fails, returning to the world of heroes is absolutely necessary for subduing and using the power of the People's Liberation Army with supernatural powers, and then joining the political circle to influence Japan's constitution. Good valuable experience.

These days, she followed Jisheng and his wife so cooperatively to participate in dances one after another, not only to clear up her suspicion, but more importantly to get information from those nobles.They are not only useful now, but in the future when returning to the hero world, these "anecdotes of ancestors" will also come in handy.

"Please don't worry about the inheritance tax, leave it all to me." With black eyes rolling, the girl looked at Nagano's mother and daughter and said softly, "The residual poison on Madam's body needs to be recuperated, and Xiaoniao's body needs to be carefully paid attention to." , I will take care of the affairs of the Earl's Mansion for the time being, and during this time, Madam, please teach Xiaoniao well, and when she has laid all the foundations, I will take her to learn how to be a qualified earl."

In the end, the title of earl of the Nagano family still fell on the real earl's daughter Tohka Nagano. The nobles were not surprised by this. After all, it is impossible for an adopted daughter to inherit the title.

But when they heard that the Nagano family took back those properties, it was the adopted daughter who tried to pay the high inheritance tax. Later, they announced in a high-profile manner that all external affairs of the Earl's Mansion would be fully responsible and managed by the adopted daughter. They are all dumbfounded.

What is this operation?

Even if the health is really bad, it is too stupid to hand over all the real power to the adopted daughter and only take the name.

All the nobles felt that they had made a mistake. They did not expect that Nagano Jisheng died unexpectedly in the attack of ghosts. The biggest beneficiary of the Nagano family turned out to be the civilian adopted daughter whom none of them paid attention to.

"I was lucky enough to get out of the predicament just now, so don't lure wolves into the house."

"Who knows what that Mrs. Ritsuko thinks? Nine years ago, she suffered such a big loss because she was too gullible. You can't just forget it right away?"

"Perhaps it was her husband who was protecting her?"

At a dance party, a small circle of nobles whispered about it.

"But then again, the night when Nagano Jisheng had an accident was really impressive. My car was driving not far behind them at the time, but seeing their car overturned by a ghost with my own eyes was terrifying. , such a terrifying ghost, but the face of the Earl of Nagano, who has been dead for nine years, grows on his head."

"Are you at the scene? I left long ago. I only know that many people saw him on the road that day. The murdered Earl of Nagano turned into a ghost to avenge his younger brother. In the end, he seemed to be killed by a passing sword-wielding samurai. "

"Holding a knife? Is there anyone still wandering around with such a dangerous thing at this time? How many years has it been since the abolition of knives was issued."

"Don't worry about such details. Anyway, since the abolition of knives was issued, people with knives have been banned repeatedly. Some of us often play with knives, not to mention the hidden possessions of the civilians. Even the police don't bother to go. Strict investigation. Anyway, I am very grateful to the samurai, if he hadn't killed the ghost, I, who happened to be nearby, might have been eaten too."

The nobleman who spoke was a little reluctant to recall the embarrassment that he was paralyzed in the car and lost even the strength to escape, so he coughed and changed the subject.

"Speaking of it, you all look down on the acting countess, right? But in fact, she is not simple. Such a large amount of inheritance tax may not be able to be paid out even if a commoner family with a wealthy family works hard all their lives, but this countess Miss Tou, who was just an orphan in front of the mansion, easily solved the problem. Do you know why?"

One sentence immediately attracted the attention of others, and they all looked over curiously, and he didn't pretend to be a joke, just said it directly.

"I inquired about this from Mrs. Ritsu's sister, Mrs. Jiang Zi, otherwise ordinary people really don't know about it. Before entering the Earl's Mansion, Miss To made friends with a wealthy drug dealer. This time the Earl's Mansion The inheritance tax is paid by the drug dealer. It is said that Miss Tou sold a secret medicinal formula to the drug dealer, and it is not a one-time buyout. If you sell it, you will get a share."

This news brightened the eyes of all the nobles who heard it.

Dividends, earn money!

Those who can start a company and become stronger and bigger these days are not idiots. It is not enough for a shrewd businessman to be willing to spend such a huge sum of money. There will be a steady stream of dividends in the future, which is enough to prove that the prescription is valuable and absolutely will sell well.

This means that the Nagano Earl's Mansion will have a stable source of income in the future, which is much better than most of the nobles present who can only live on debt!

Now the nobles somewhat understand why Mrs. Ritsuko of the Earl's Mansion directly delegated power to the adopted daughter, and it turned out to be the case.

When the nobles who had figured this out saw the figure of the acting earl at the ball, the contempt in their eyes disappeared, and they all began to chat with him in a cordial and friendly manner.

This is exactly the effect Tou wants. If these Chinese people who are obviously poor but have eyes in the sky always look at her with their nostrils, she herself will be very upset.

Even though she is only 154 now, but with prom high heels, her height is about the same as a normal 15-year-old. There is no way for these people to look down on her.

That's how it happened. Although Xiaoniao's background and relationship disrupted Tou's plan, she did not lose the pharmacist connections she had deliberately made before. Go to the drug store as a guest to go around.

The fact that she and Xiaoniao both entered the Earl's Mansion made the drug dealer couple very disappointed for a while. The couple really wanted to adopt both of them into their home, but it was just a trick of luck.However, the consistent visits made the couple without children very happy, not to mention that she came up with a new type of antibacterial drug that had never been seen before, which made tuberculosis, which has always been regarded as a terminal disease, all because of it. Life can no longer be taken away.

How could the pharmacist not be overjoyed when he successfully cured a patient who was waiting to die. He knew the value of this medicine too well, and it was enough to become a milestone in the history of human medicine.

"It wasn't me who discovered it. I just accidentally got it from the interlayer of a British medical book. I tried to make it and found it was really useful." The antibacterial drugs that will not be discovered in the UK for at least decades will be used in exchange for the needed benefits. "It would be great if there is a win-win situation for all parties."

In fact, there was this kind of medicine in the early years, and the related patients in this parallel world could live longer. It is a pity that it is Taisho not Meiji now, otherwise the famous Okita Shoji would definitely not die on the hospital bed, but in the hospital. On the battlefield.

"The man who discovered it is a genius. It's a pity that I can't meet him." It's a pity for the drug dealer, but it's just a pity for a while, and soon he was aroused by the great prospect of antibiotics.

Thinking back to the twists and turns and long time from the successful extraction of antibiotics to formal production, Tou felt that it would be better for him to give up the idea.

Because the medicine itself is a perfect finished product, the company of the drug dealer does not need to use the laboratory to re-torque and improve it. After the formula is determined, it will be put into production soon. Before the first batch of finished drugs comes out, the drug dealer has already I was thinking about how to make a name for myself and launch this life-saving medicine.

Tou gave the drug dealer a lot of advice in this regard, and every idea surprised him, and made him even more regretful.

"Son, I'm so sorry. If I knew I should have acted faster, you are more suitable to inherit my family business than in the Earl's Mansion!"

"Don't say that." With a smile on her face, she also had good intentions towards this middle-aged couple who have always been friendly, "You two have always treated people kindly, even an orphan girl like me was polite to you back then. There will definitely be a more suitable heir by your side in the future."

It is not impossible for them to have another one at this age. Tou thinks that they can use their own small universe influence to improve their body magnetic field. After all, they are not the weak constitution of Xiaoniao who leaks air everywhere, so it is not difficult to operate.

The pharmacist and his wife only thought that Tou's words were a blessing, and they all smiled: "Then thank you, Tou, for your good words."

Because he wanted the couple to have a child, and because he wanted to produce and sell antibiotics, Toulai was very diligent at the pharmacist's house.Two months later, as soon as the antibiotics that were officially put on the shelves were launched, they were sold immediately, and related orders from hospitals and sanatoriums all over the country came like snowflakes. This is not counting the large number of orders from overseas. It takes a long time to work overtime at night to meet the requirements of the order, so he started to think about expanding the factory again.

The drug dealer has made a lot of money, and the Earl's Mansion, which has also become poor because of the inheritance tax, has naturally become richer visible to the naked eye.Tou spent money on his own mother and himself in the previous life, of course he was not stingy at all, but he bought a lot of jewelry and costumes.

And during this period of time, Mrs. Ritsuko, who had heard enough of the nobles chewing her ears and calling her a fool, immediately put on her clothes, and walked around the palace ball with the same luxuriously dressed bird. Intentionally or unintentionally, he showed off how filial his adopted eldest daughter was, how many good things the family bought outside the family, even his own son may not be able to do the same.

After a few dances, everyone knew that the eyes of the wealthy nobles in the Nagano family were so shocked that the adoptive daughter adopted by the Earl's Mansion sold a small prescription. Golden rooster with golden eggs!

Tou, who had a panoramic view of Mrs. Ritsuko's series of actions, didn't have much idea, and even commented that it was indeed her mother's previous life, and that dazzled daughter's demeanor really didn't change at all from expressions to movements of.

After more than two months of recuperation, and scientifically matched nutritional supplements every day, Mrs. Ritsuko's health has improved a lot, and her personality has become more cheerful due to the gradual reduction of stress, and her temper has become more and more like her mother's.And Tou, who knows what kind of temperament her mother is, silently took Xiaoniao away and let her play freely at various dance parties and dinners.

Xiaoniao was very happy, and her face was still in good spirits with no blood on her face: "Mom has changed back to the way I saw it when I was a child. It's great."

Tou's footsteps paused, and soon continued to lift: "Let's go, I will take you back to rest."

The next day, she went to the pharmacist's house again, and the matter of the research institute should be put on the agenda.

Just after being welcomed by the maid, I heard a burst of laughter in the living room.

"Too!" The drug dealer's wife was also very happy to see her, and the joy on her face was more intense than usual, "I tell you, you said two days ago that we have a more suitable heir, we just took it as a good word, I didn't expect you to be right!"

She was stunned for a moment, and when her eyes subconsciously looked at her stomach, the drug dealer next to her also greeted her. The big sale of antibiotics has already made the couple regard the girl as their own. Back then, the drug could be promoted so smoothly across the country. However, the Nagano Earl's Mansion has made great efforts in official channels.But now they have something more joyful to share with the girls than the fame and fortune of drug sales.

The pharmacist accepted his wife's words with a smile on his face: "These days you accompanied your mother and sister to attend noble gatherings and didn't come to my place, so you don't know that there is a new member in our family. Our family just He officially adopted a child yesterday, his name is Junguo, he is a very smart and beautiful little boy. You will definitely like him very much when you see him."
