Chapter 540: The Leftover Women's General Mobilization
Chapter 540: The Leftover Women Mobilization
The Baron and his wife had known each other for a long time and had an extremely tacit understanding. They already knew each other's thoughts just by exchanging a glance.
After they made their decision, they chatted a few more words with Lester and others, then stood up to leave.
They made an excuse to give Lester and Adele a private time together, and then they took Lorena and returned to their room.
Although they had not seen each other for a long time and had a lot to say, the couple had serious concerns. Therefore, they just chatted briefly with their daughter reluctantly, and then turned to
Got to the point.
When Baron Roquande saw the hinting look from his wife, he immediately laughed, then mustered up the courage and said, "Lina, there is something I want to ask you."
Luolina was still immersed in the joy of meeting her relatives. She laughed immediately and said without thinking: "What's the matter? Still so serious? Why? Dad, is it really like Leo, that bastard with a third level of dead fat guy said?
Yes, are you really here to check taxes?"
Baron Rocund was furious and said: "That's not true~!"
After finishing speaking, seeing the funny look in Luo Linna's eyes, she suddenly realized that her daughter, who had always been nonchalant and just immersed herself in practicing magic, was actually making fun of her.
Luo Linna was not like this before. After going to Maple Leaf Danlin, she became a scholar who could only study magic. Even when she came home during the holidays, she would always stay at home and do some Baron Rocund.
Weird things that I can't understand. I never thought that I would make a dad joke like this.
He immediately said dissatisfiedly: "Lina, who did you learn this from, and you actually made fun of your own father?"
Luolina looked at her father's flushed face, hurriedly spit out her lilac-like tongue, and laughed without saying a word. But she secretly complained in her heart: It was all caused by that bastard Luo Lin. I don't know.
Unconsciously, I caught his bad habits~!
Baron Rocund was helpless for a moment.
He coughed lightly, and then said calmly: "That's it, I want to ask you..."
Having said this, Baron Rocund opened his mouth, looked at his daughter's clear eyes, and suddenly felt weak. Then he changed his tone and said: "Do you have enough pocket money? Do you want me to give you another ten dollars?"
Ten or two hundred thousand? It’s better to bring more money when you go out than at home.”
Lorena immediately smiled and said: "Dad, just keep your money. I am now the president of Nai'an's Magic Association. I have also made a lot of money. I am not boasting. Dad, you are in the Ministry of Finance and so on
Years may not be as much as what I have earned in the past two years."
Baron Rocund was shocked and said: "I... I have made a total of just over the years... Bah, bah, bah, I have only earned more than five million gold coins. You... you have earned it in two years?
Isn't this unlikely?
Could it be that..."
He hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "You... you robbed a bank? Good girl, that is illegal. If you are short of money, just tell me. How can you do that kind of thing~
!”
When I talked about it later, I couldn't help but regret it and sighed again and again.
Luolina looked at her father and realized that he had been living in the capital of the empire, where people were singing and dancing, and her experience in the past two years was almost a completely different world.
She couldn't help but secretly thought: Maybe this is the so-called generation gap~!
At that moment, she sighed angrily and said, "Just relax~!"
Baron Roquande made a bitter face and said: "This...how does this make me feel at ease~!"
Luo Linna said: "Okay, I'll do the math for you. Just sit down first and don't be in a hurry, okay?"
She paused for a moment, then clapped her fingers and said: "Last year...well, counting, it should be the year before last. In the winter of the year before last, I resisted the attack of the Almohads, and later surrendered a lot of ships and sold them all.
Because during the battle, I was also the commander and the main output of the magician unit. So when the spoils were divided, I took a large share. Although it is not much, it is already about 200,000."
Luo Kunde said: "Two hundred thousand, that's not much, right? It's still far short of five million."
Luo Linna said: "Listen to me."
She thought for a moment and continued: "Later, when we attacked Almohad, we went straight to the capital. Although Lorraine didn't get anything when they raided their treasury..."
After hearing this, Baron Rocunde, out of professional sensitivity, immediately wondered: "Nothing was found? How come there is no money in the treasury?"
Luo Linna said: "All that money was taken away by the Almohad dog officers with a note. It has never been paid back.
Don’t interrupt, just listen to what I have to say~!”
Baron Roquande immediately shut up. But at the same time, he sighed in his heart: He dared to take money from the treasury casually, and they deserved the turmoil in their country and the endless wars~!
Lorena ignored him and continued: "However, later we chased him out of the city and confiscated many Almohad nobles."
At this point, she laughed and said: "You also know that Lorraine is nicknamed 'Friend of Hades, savior of evil spirits in hell.'
If you don't leave your skin, even if an ant passes by, you have to leave a leg.
When it comes to methods of scraping the ground, Duandi is very powerful~!
How could those fat pig nobles be in his hands...how could...how could it be a good thing...? Hahaha..."
The more she talked, the more she laughed, and the more she laughed, the more she talked. In the end, she could only cover her stomach with her hands and squat on the ground laughing.
Baron and Mrs. Rocund also couldn't help laughing.
After a while, Lorena wiped away her tears from laughter, and then continued: "Later, we also found old Despey's treasure map, raided his lair, and made a fortune.
This amount of money alone adds up to almost three million."
Luo Kunde's eyes immediately glowed with gold, and he murmured: "So you guys are so profitable~!"
Mrs. Rocund looked at her husband's useless appearance and gave him a fierce look. She said: "Nonsense, when I plundered your little treasury, didn't I also make a fortune?"
Baron Roquande shivered immediately and hurriedly put on a smile, saying repeatedly: "It should, it should. Haha, hahaha..."
When Luo Linna saw it, she couldn't help but laugh and cry.
She coughed slightly, and then continued: "When I got here later, Lorraine said he wanted to set up a joint-stock company or something, so he helped me invest all the money.
Later, when the land was sold, it was said that the company's top executives would receive benefits, so everyone was allocated a small piece of land..."
Baron Rocund lost his voice and said: "Ten thousand acres of land is also called a small piece of land."
Luo Linna said matter-of-factly: "Yes, who among you doesn't have a land plot of 12,000 or 20,000?
But dad, if you go out and see someone arrogantly saying that they have a villa in such and such a forest, you can go and tell them that we also have a forest at home. Give them a hard blow.
.”
Baron Rocund was dumbfounded at the moment, feeling that he was suffering a lot from being sandwiched between the two women at home, the older one and the younger one.
Luo Linna continued: "Besides these, there is also some unparalleled sea view villa on the beach. Anyway, it is a mess, and I am too lazy to take care of it. But I guess the total of them all will be about five million, right?"
After hearing what Lorena said, Baron Rocund and his wife were quite shocked.
I made five million in two years, and this was just a big calculation, I didn't dare to do a detailed calculation.
This... this is more profitable than robbing a bank~!
Rocund wanted to ask more questions, but then he saw his wife throwing an eye dart as sharp as ice again. He shuddered, and then said with a bitter face: "Oh, I...I asked.
That’s not it. What I’m asking is… what I’m asking is…”
He was sweating profusely in a hurry, but he couldn't express that crucial question.
Mrs. Rocunde sighed immediately and said: "The men of the Rocunde family are really not easy to worry about~!"
At the moment, Rocund could only make a grimace and laugh repeatedly.
Mrs. Rocund said: "Forget it, let me ask~!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Baron Rocunde felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He took a long breath, then took out a handkerchief and wiped it on his forehead twice.
Lorena could become a magician, but she was not a fool. She was very keenly aware that something was wrong. She slightly frowned her slender and picturesque eyebrows, looked at Mrs. Rocund in confusion, and felt unreasonable in her heart.
There was a moment of panic.
Mrs. Rocunde smiled first, and then said: "Lina~! I heard that your magic practice has improved again, right?"
Luolina puffed up her chest proudly and said, "Yes, my abilities have greatly improved now. As long as I take some time off and have someone to support me and help me, I can easily become the next magician.
My teacher and the Cardinal Archbishop Obham came here specifically for the important matter of Hilmeria and I getting upgraded."
Hearing this, Mrs. Rocund exchanged a look with her husband.
Luolina asked doubtfully: "What? Is there something wrong?"
Baron Rocund hesitated for a moment, seeing what his wife was going to say, and finally gritted his teeth and decided to be the white face himself.
After all, a daughter has the closest relationship with her mother. Even if she scolds her and makes her cry, she can still be comforted by her mother, and both of them can say whatever they have to say.
Therefore, he still had to bite the bullet and said: "Lina, do you think we should think of a way to stop being a magician first?"
Luo Linna was stunned and said: "What does this mean?"
Luo Kunde had a pleasant look and a fake smile on his face, just like a gold-medal personal insurance salesman from Soaring Eagle Company, and said: "Daughter~! Hahaha, that's it. You see, you are now quite the boss.
Should we stop thinking about magic practice and so on, and instead consider other issues?"
Luolina suddenly felt her heart skip a beat and said, "What...what's the problem?"
Rocund stretched out his hands and put them on his chest, then raised the thumbs of both hands, then bent them twice, and stammered: "That's it... that's it... that's the problem."
Lorena still looked puzzled.
Baron Rocund looked at his daughter and was very annoyed at the moment. He thought to himself: This girl has made herself stupid by learning magic~!
He said loudly: "It's just... it's just a personal issue. Find a boyfriend and get married. I still need to talk about this issue. Really, I don't even know about it."
Luolina's pretty face turned red all of a sudden, as if it was dyed with a layer of red clouds.
She stammered: "I...I...I'm learning magic, and I'm still...still young. I don't need to think about these issues yet."
Baron Roquande stumbled and said: "You are still so young~! That so-and-so got married the year before last, and that so-and-so gave birth to a child last year.
Two fat, white, fat boys~!
Later, when I went out to visit guests and attend banquets, many people asked me, how are you doing now? Are you married?
It’s made me embarrassed to go out now.”
He saw Luo Linna standing by without saying a word, and the more she spoke, the more excited she became, and said: "You said you are a girl, and you are as tall as a flower, so beautiful.
What kind of magic, what kind of cultivation, what's the use of these? It's serious to find someone to marry as soon as possible.
Don't delay any longer, or you'll end up like that old girl."
Luolina bit her lip and blurted out: "Aren't Dale, Catherine, Hilmeria and others not married either?"
After she finished speaking, she realized her mistake. Those three were not married, but now they are all such strong women, but they all have adulterers...and lovers. And among them, Hilme
Leah is still a daughter of the gods and cannot marry.
As expected, Baron Rocund beat his chest and shouted: "You are going to make me angry~! Hilmeria is the daughter of God, is she married?"
Mrs. Rocund next to her, out of a woman's intuition, keenly grasped the loopholes in Lorena's words. The light in her eyes flashed, and there was a faint sign that the soul of gossip was starting to burn.
At this time, I heard Baron Roquand continue to shout: "Dier and Catherine, unlike you, they are not magicians~!"
Luolina was stunned for a moment.
Baron Roquande shook his head repeatedly with hatred and said: "You don't know that recently, among the bored guys in the capital who are full of food and have nothing to do, a ranking list of leftover men and leftover women has become popular.
.
I don’t know what the basis is, but anyway, there are leftover fighters, bileftovers, Qi Tianda leftovers, etc. It’s so messy. It gives me a headache just to look at it.
Think about it, if you become a magician, how many people will dare to come to our door? You...you...how long will you continue to plan~!"
He paused for a moment, looked at Luolina's displeased expression, then changed his tone again, and said patiently: "Lina, listen to dad, we still don't want to be that kind of magician. Even if we have invincible power, then
So what? After a hundred years, won’t everything become empty and return to dust?
Instead of doing this, it would be better to find a compatible partner, fall in love with each other, and live happily for the rest of your life. Just like...just like me and your mother, how wonderful it is~!
And if you have several children in the future, you will have someone to take care of you when you get old. You won’t have to live alone all your life.”
Luolina was anxious and angry because of him, but she had no other way. In the end, she became angry and said: "You don't have to worry about my affairs~!"
Baron Roquande was even more annoyed. He slammed the table and said, "I don't care about your business. Who cares~!"
The more he talked, the angrier he became, and said: "I told you here that in two days, you will follow us back, and then... Hey, where are you going..."
Luolina stamped her foot angrily and said: "I won't tell you anymore~!"
With that said, he rushed out of the door.
Baron Rocund wanted to chase him, but when he rushed out the door, he found that the path here was not familiar at all.
At this time, Luolina was seen rushing into the flowers in the courtyard and disappeared.
Lorena rushed into the garden, got away from her father, and then sat in a deserted corner of the garden, dazed for a while.
But there was nothing she could do for a moment. After all, those two people were her relatives, and the reason why they acted like this was for her own sake.
Just when she was in a daze, she heard the sound of footsteps.
She hurriedly wiped the tears from her eyes, turned around and saw Lorraine walking over.
She was startled and said, "Why are you here?"
Lorraine bared her teeth, smiled, and said, "I was fine just now. I was basking in the sun on the balcony on the second floor, and I saw you running out in a hurry. What? What happened?"
Luolina looked at his concerned eyes, and her heart softened immediately, but she still said forcefully: "It's nothing."
Lorraine continued: "Don't be like this, beauty. Anyway, everything is fine. Tell me what unhappy things you have. It will also make me happy~!"
Luolina was stunned for a moment.
She vaguely felt something was wrong, and now she filtered what Lorraine had just said in her mind: "Speak out the unhappy things and make me happy~!"
After realizing it, he immediately became furious: "Asshole~! You actually dare to come in front of me and gloat about my misfortune. You've been itchy since you've been without power for the past two days, haven't you~!"
As she spoke, she pulled her hands in front of her chest. Immediately, several blue arcs of electricity flew from her spring onion-like fingertips. Then, like a spiritual snake, she swooped towards Lorraine.
Lorraine waved her hands repeatedly, but before she could say a word, she was electrocuted and fell to the ground.
In the moment when the lightning flashed, you could vaguely see Lord Luo's body as if it had been X-rayed, showing a complete skeleton.
After a while, Lorraine slowly recovered.
He fell to the ground and did not get up. He just blew out a puff of black smoke into the sky, and then murmured: "Luolina, I came here to see you with good intentions, but you are really willing to do something harsh~!"
Luo Linna looked at his appearance and felt quite regretful. At the same time, her heart palpitated - Luo Linna saw that she was in a bad mood, so she came here to comfort herself~!
She stood up with a complicated look on her face, intending to help Luo Lin, but an idea flashed in her mind and she suddenly stopped.
She smoothed her robe, knelt down with a smile, and said, "Lorraine, I have a favor for you, what do you think?"
Lorraine looked at her delicate, jade-like face and those clear beautiful eyes, and immediately lost consciousness for a moment, but then she reacted and hurriedly put her hands on her chest and said, "You...what do you want to do?
Looking at me so lustfully, I...I am not a prostitute."
Luo Linna gritted her teeth angrily and said: "Who is looking at you with a leering look? Believe it or not, I will call you again... Huh? By the way, you said the opposite, right? You should be a prostitute rather than a prostitute, right?"
Lord Luo raised his head in an upright manner and said, "Don't put me on the same level as those actors. I'm not in the same realm as them~!"
Seeing his shameless look, Luo Linna was so angry that she laughed and said, "You are so shameless."
She paused and then said: "That's right."
Lorena briefly told her story about her quarrel with her father, and then looked at Lorraine meaningfully.
Lorraine rolled her eyes, then pretended to be confused and asked, "What do you mean?"
Luo Linna immediately looked at the black line, then gritted her teeth and glared at him, saying: "It's very simple. What I mean is that we two pretend to be a couple, so that the old man and old lady in our family will not get any leftover girls.
The fighter forced me to go back."
Lorraine snorted coldly, straightened her face, and said angrily: "Do you know, what I hate most in my life are those people who commit fraud.
Among the officials under me, if I find out someone is committing fraud, I usually pull out his intestines first, then put them around his neck, and then strangle him hard, strangle him, and strangle him.
He stuck out his tongue, then took out the knife, slashed it, and chopped off his head. Then he cut his head into pieces with a thousand cuts, then peeled off the skin and grass, then lit a sky lantern, and finally performed a set of the top ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty.
…”
Luolina was angry and laughing at the same time. When it came to fraud, the Sir in front of her was an extremely skilled master. When they met back then, he had been cheating money by playing a game of false invoicing.
This kind of bastard still hates to lie, only a ghost would believe it~!
Hearing Lorraine's nonsense, Luolina immediately looked stern and said coldly: "Then what do you want?"
Lorraine immediately said categorically: "Fake things are the most annoying~! If we want to do it, we must do it for real~!"
Luolina was angry, laughing and angry at the same time. She bit her pomegranate-red lips and cursed in her heart: This bastard actually wants to take advantage of the situation~!
She looked down at Lorraine in a condescending manner, then spat and said, "Bah! You are so beautiful, you bastard."
After saying that, she waved her slender waist, turned around and walked away.
