I became the king of villains in the game

Chapter 56 The Inner City Home

Dinner Chen Lun was settled in the Pompeii manor.

Viscount Pompeii failed to overcome the dual will of his wife and daughter, and finally chose to let Chen Lun stay.

"I hereby formally invite you to be Rebecca's governess in her literature and natural studies."

Viscount Pompeii wiped the corner of his mouth with a tablecloth, and gestured with his hand.

The old housekeeper handed over a letter of appointment and a small purse to Chen Lun.

"A weekly salary of 2 gold pounds and 80 silver nobility, is it acceptable?"

Chen Lun took it and stood up to salute the Viscount.

"Of course, it is my honor, Your Excellency the Viscount."

Viscount Pompeii nodded and glanced at his daughter Rebecca beside him.

The blond girl was taking a sneak peek at her new teacher, not even wiping the sauce from the corner of her mouth.

The viscount suddenly felt a headache, and reminded himself that he had to watch closely, lest this boy from the countryside kidnap his precious daughter away.

"Thank you for your hospitality, I will take my leave first."

Chen Lun took his short shawl and top hat from the maid, turned around and stroked Madam Pompey's chest.

"Goodbye, beautiful lady."

Mrs. Pompey was amused, and it was a very pleasant thing to be praised by the handsome young man.

She nodded modestly in response.

But Rebecca on the side couldn't help but tighten her fingers, shaking the fork.

"And, of course, lovely Miss Rebecca. Goodbye."

Chen Lun finally bowed to Rebecca, put on his top hat, and turned to leave.

Rebecca immediately beamed with joy, threw down her fork and shouted at Chen Lun:

"Goodbye, Mr. Jack! Remember to come and give me a class early tomorrow!"

Chen Lun waved his hand without looking back, indicating that he heard it.

Mrs. Pompeii frowned and scolded Rebecca. It was so embarrassing. How could Viscount Pompeii's daughter be so rude!

Not ladylike at all!
Viscount Pompeii didn't bother to pay attention, he felt that his wife might not be much better.

It was a headache to wave his hand and ask Binoz to accompany him to the study.

Chen Lun, who walked out of the gate of the manor, whistled.

Today, it is to praise the party's victory.

You can boast casually, and the weekly salary is [-].

"The next step is to find Philip's inheritance hidden in the manor..."

Chen Lun glanced back at the huge Pompeii manor and left.

……

A small estate in the southeast of the inner city.

This is Chen Lun's chosen permanent residence. Compared with the bustling city center, it will be a bit deserted, but the rent is still not cheap.

He also hired two maids and a coachman, and rented a carriage from a garage.

For sporadic expenses, a total of 9 to 10 gold pounds will be spent in a month.The bulk of it is mainly the rent of the manor and the carriage. The manor is 5 gold pounds per month, and the carriage is 1 gold pound.

It costs 70 to 80 copper kroes to take a horse-drawn carriage in Amber City.

He often needs to go out, and Floy and Connie can also use it. For convenience, he simply rented one.

"The money I earned as a teacher at the viscount's house is barely enough for my expenses... Life is hard."

Chen Lun sighed and walked into his small manor.

When passing by a warehouse that had just been renovated, he happened to see Connie talking with a group of tall and thick men at the warehouse door.

The generator beside the warehouse was humming, and the light above the door ledge was on.

Connie was holding a blueprint in her hand, pointing at the paper, and the other men nodded from time to time.

"Connie."

Chen Lun stepped forward and said hello.

Connie stopped talking when she saw someone coming, and smiled at Chen Lun.

"Mr. Jack, I have done everything you asked me to do."

She pointed to the group of men beside her.

After arriving in the inner city yesterday to settle down with Froy and Connie, he wrote a letter to Gary asking him to send someone to pick up Connie and go to the water beach.

Connie personally selected ten craftsmen from the Iron Fist Gang and brought them back to the inner city.

For this reason, Chen Lun paid a lot of gold pounds, and asked Gary to bribe the management personnel of the inner city security station, so as to expedite the arrangement of formal identities for these ten craftsmen.

Of course, because these craftsmen were all captured by the Iron Fist Gang, Chen Lun had told Connie in advance that she would hire people and only choose craftsmen who came voluntarily.

It looks pretty good now, Chen Lun nodded with satisfaction.

This group of people temporarily lived in the small manor, and Connie organized them to start research and forging.I believe that with Connie's "mind", it will be more efficient to direct their "hands and feet".

"Nice job, Connie."

Chen Lun praised him.

"Where's Floy?"

"Miss Froy is studying in the room. She has studied the dishes all afternoon and is waiting for you to come back to have dinner together."

Connie seemed a little happy. She said that she had read Mrs. Caroline's cookbook for Miss Floyd.

Immediately afterwards, she explained a few words to the craftsmen, and followed Chen Lun to the single-family villa.

There are only some simple forging tools in the warehouse for the time being. Chen Lun asked Connie to pre-order a batch of small mechanical equipment, which may take a while to arrive.

The wallet shrinks again.

But he believes that he will be able to double his earnings before long.

"Um, haven't you had dinner yet?"

Chen Lun has already eaten at Pompeii Manor, and he is still a little full now.

"no."

Connie shook her head. She leaned closer and said in a discussing tone:
"Mr. Jack, can I be the head maid here? Miss Froy needs someone to take care of her..."

She paused suddenly, as if recalling the experience of being kidnapped that night, she even dragged Miss Froy's hind legs, and blushed immediately.

Who takes care of whom is unknown.

"Connie, you are not a servant now, I hope you treat me as a friend...

If you like, you can also serve as the housekeeper here.Anyway, I seldom stay here, and I really need a person to manage it. "

Chen Lun said with a smile.

Connie was a little moved when she heard these words, and nodded vigorously.

"Mr. Jack, please rest assured that I will manage this place in an orderly manner."

The two were talking and entered the villa.

It is definitely not as luxurious as the Pompeii manor, but it is much better than the conditions in the outer city.

The hall on the first floor is very spacious, and the living room and kitchen are fully equipped.

The second floor is the room of the maids and craftsmen, and Chen Lun and Floy Connie live on the third floor.

The fourth floor is the attic for storing sundries, where Chen Lun will store his "goods".

When Chen Lun just rented the place, he went out after explaining some things, and the layout and tidying were arranged by Floyd and Connie.

"You're back."

Floyd was waiting at the door early.

"Let's eat... I've got dinner ready."

As she spoke, she led Chen Lun and Connie to the restaurant with a smile on her face.

The dining table was full of food. Chen Lun was very moved when he saw this scene, but he really couldn't eat any more.

Connie was obviously hungry, and Floyd's cooking skills were really good, so she ate without looking at her image.

"Eat, why don't you eat?"

Connie pouted her mouth and looked at Chen Lun suspiciously.

"It's delicious, Mr. Jack."

"Uh... I don't really like fish."

Floy also turned her head to "stare" at him.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Chen Lun seemed to feel threats mixed with expectations in her emotions.

"Eat! I love fish so much!

You must know that I grew up by the sea since I was a child, fishing every day, this is the taste of home! "

Chen Lun patted his chest and slapped the ghost face badge.

Work hard, brother!Make me hungry!
With tears in his eyes, he gulped down the rice. The fish head was hanging by his mouth, shaking up and down as he chewed.

Seeing Floyd's satisfied expression, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Immediately after seeing her get up, several new pots of food were brought from the kitchen.

Still his most hated fish!
