Chapter 223 Gram Family worships ancestors! (please subscribe ~ ask for monthly ticket~)

Three days later, in the morning.

The Gram Family keeps up the tradition of having breakfast together at Bear Castle.

Black whole-wheat loaves of bread are laid out on the table.

Slices of bacon ham made from venison.

Roasted rabbit is the main meal.

The soup made of potatoes and cabbage is added with sliced bear meat, and the aroma assaults the senses, especially when paired with the freshly pickled pickled cucumbers. Appetite.

“The arena is basically completed, but I think the auditorium needs to be expanded, especially the VIP seats.”

“I booked 10 copper corners for the third-class seats, and the second-class seats. The seat is 20 silver gram (1 silver gram), the first class seat is 40 bronze gram (2 silver gram), and the VIP seat is 24 silver gram (2 golden gram).”

‘Dumpling’ for one night Emil Gram with dark circles on top, explaining to Goethe.

“I made a mistake earlier.”

“VIP seats shouldn’t be priced so easily, Emil, the price you quoted for 2golden gram is obviously too low – it should just be an auction We will divide them into 3, 6, 9, etc. according to the seat position, and tell everyone that there are 10 VIP seats in total.”

Goethe corrected while holding a pickle.

ka!

The crisp pickled cucumber has a hint of sweetness.

Goethe’s eyes lit up, and he picked up a loaf of brown bread, cut it off, and put it into the soup.

For this tougher food, he likes to eat it in soup.

“But our news has already been released?”

“Will it be a bad idea?”

Emil Gram was a little worried.

When the rye bread was quickly softening, Goethe tore off half a rabbit and chewed it on the leash, facing Emil Gram’s concerns like a profiteer who eats people without spitting out bones Like, he said softly: “You said that VIP seats are in short supply and cannot be completed in a short period of time. You can only set 10 VIP seats to express your gratitude to everyone. Then, please go to the guests who cannot buy VIP seats. First class – you must emphasize that first class is the same, even if it’s really a little worse than a VIP seat.”

“dirty and dark.”

Gegil couldn’t help but comment again.

“What is this dirty and dark?”

“If it’s not too tight for time, I plan to hold a pre-sale, and then go hungry according to the pre-sale situation. Marketing, and then develop a wave of peripheral products!”

“It will definitely make a lot of money.”

Goethe said quite regretfully sighed.

Why worry?

Only good food!

Goethe sighed the next moment, sandwiching a slice of venison-smoked ham.

The unique taste appears as soon as the smoky and meaty flavors are mixed in the mouth.

The meat is not as soft as other hams, but rather chewy.

It’s delicious with rye bread.

Goethe took another sip of soup, and a smile appeared on Goethe’s face.

“I know about pre-sale and hunger marketing, but what are the peripheral products?”

Emil Gram, who has been in charge of the northern economy, asked.

The eldest son’s face was full of curiosity.

As the economic controller of the Gram Family, no one knows more than Emil Gram that the North needs more money. As long as there is an opportunity to make money, how will the second son of the eldest prince not let go.

“The peripheral products are the items developed based on this arena. Simply put, they are constantly advocating for a certain player, or advocating for the arena itself, so that it can form a conforming effect. The good thing is to join the comparison, let people think that this is a trend, and chase it unconsciously-then you will find that golden gram starts to chase you, and keeps getting into your pocket.”

“ Unfortunately, time is too tight!”

“But…”

“But what?”

The second son of the Grand Duke asked quickly.

“However, the wood we booked that originally belonged to the VIP seats should not be wasted. Since 10 VIP seats are enough, the remaining wood will be built outside the arena with the ring as the center, and dozens of rooms will be built. Temporary shops, rent them out to those businessmen—and tell them that only those who have rented shops are eligible to enter the venue to sell food and water.”

“As for the others who haven’t rented shops? “

“If you are willing to give us a sponsorship, you can also set up a stall outside the venue, but you can’t enter the venue to sell.”

Goethe thought After a while, he said.

After all, that wood is also bought with money, so it can’t be just wasted.

“Hi!”

“Sure enough, it’s dirtier and darker… Goethe, it’s really a pity that you don’t become a businessman. If you were a businessman, you would definitely be rich. Enemy country!”

Gegil sucked in a cold breath, watching Goethe’s eyes widen.

And the small town girl Ella behind Gegil stood there, looking shocked and incredulous.

For Ella, a small town girl, even though she is the daughter of the mayor, she has never been exposed to this aspect.

Listening to Goethe’s narration at this moment, the three views of this small town girl will be overturned.

However, Goethe’s subsequent words left the small town girl at a loss.

“A businessman who is rich enough to rival a country?”

“A businessman is always impossible and wealthy enough to rival a country.”

“Unless he himself represents the will of the ‘country’ !”

Goethe picked up half of the roasted rabbit from Sierra’s plate, raised his hand and patted the palm of Sierra’s snatching away, and said vaguely while supporting Sierra’s forehead with one hand.

These words caught the eyes of both the Archduke and Semler Gram.

The Archduke simply sighed at the bloodline of ‘Steinbeck’ on his nephew. It really couldn’t be faked.

Then, the archduke handed his roasted rabbit to Sierra, who was about to cry.

And Semler Gram feels like his cousin is very difficult to deal with.

At least, he couldn’t think of a plan to make money like this.

“Anything else?”

Emil Gram’s eyes flashed and he continued to ask.

The grand duke’s second son has heard the crisp sound of the golden gram.

He had a hunch that if this wave was done, the northern border would be relaxed for a long time.

Goethe rolled his eyes at this question.

“Are you a devil?”

“Leeks have to be cut one by one!”

“You pulled out all the roots, what would you do? ?”

Soon, Emil Gram laughed horribly.

Just when everyone was about to end this topic, Goethe suddenly opened the mouth and said —

“Do our best to do this, we will strive to make this The ring match, make it into a series!”

“Series?”

Everyone was stunned.

“Of course it’s a series!”

“We spent hundreds of golden gram buying wood, and we also paid labor and energy. How could we not make a series!”

“This year, I will challenge all Second Rank professionals. Next year, I can hold a ‘fighting tournament’!”

Goethe looked as it should be by rights.

Then, while everyone was still thinking, Goethe continued.

“Remember, buy all the land near the venue.”

Everyone was stunned again.

Only Emil Gram reacted a bit.

Once it becomes an annual series of events, the prices of the surrounding buildings will naturally double, and now he buys at the price of cabbage, when the time comes whether it is rented out or sold If you go, it will bring benefits to the north.

“That’s why you refused me to build the venue in the dock area, but chose to build the venue in the most remote part of Bear Castle?”

“Of course not!”

“The dock area is for the guests from Faber – how can those guests’ ships be berthed with ordinary merchant ships and cargo ships? Naturally, there must be a special dock!”

“And we built such a wharf to show respect, so it’s not too much to charge a little berthing fee and management fee?”

Goethe looked like it should be by rights.

You are the devil!

Everyone, except Sierra, who was happily nibbling on roasted rabbits, shared this sentiment.

“Cough, do as Goethe says.”

The Archduke lightly coughed, suppressing his surprise.

He thought he had seen what his nephew was thinking.

didn’t expect  …

He was shallow.

Is ‘Steinbeck’ bloodline so profitable?

It is rumored that people who have ‘Steinbeck’ bloodline, golden gram will be intimate with each other.

The Duke thought to himself.

Semler Gram, Emil Gram and Gegil Gram also thought of this rumor.

Of course, they just thought it was a metaphorical rumor.

Until—

Ding!

A golden gram fell out of Sierra’s pocket.

Sierra, who was enjoying herself, didn’t notice any of this.

Goethe raised his hand to pick up the golden gram, dusted it off, and put it in his pocket.

Gram Family people:  …

It turned out to be true!

The Grand Duke and the third son were shocked.

Goethe looked calm.

With the [Steinbeck Breathing Technique] reaching the Peerless level, the accompanying [Fortune] special effects have also improved the effect. In the past, picking up money would not exceed 1 silver cord at most, but now it has reached 1 golden gram .

Of course, the limit is 1 golden gram.

Goethe has tried many times this month and will not exceed this amount.

Moreover, another special effect, [Treasure], has never been triggered.

Obviously, such a ‘passive’ also requires him to ‘actively’ trigger it. It is impossible to fall from the sky and treasure just by staying in the room.

“Maybe I should go to something like an antique store?”

Goethe couldn’t help thinking, but glanced at ‘Mad King’s Ring’.

The one-month ‘world upgrade’ has already been completed.

The starry sky also changed.

Originally in Seven Stars, the three are dull, showing a row at the bottom and a white one, a gray one on top, a black one on top, and a red one on top, with ‘ They are arranged in the shape of a 丄, but with the ‘upgrade’ of the star in the middle of the three dull and dim stars, there are only two dim stars left at the bottom. Originally, between the black and red stars, the two were connected.

Likewise, the star has become inaccessible.

The rest remains unchanged.

The two dim stars have been cooled down, and it still costs 500 golden gram to enter.

The milk-white stars are still cooling, and the gray stars are 10000golden gram.

Goethe’s eyes stayed on the gray stars for a while, and then looked towards two dim stars again – looking at the gray stars, Goethe still had a feeling of trembling.

Although not as strong as before, it is still not to be ignored.

“In the white star ‘Secret Realm’, there is already an existence called ‘Ultimate Power’ that can threaten me, and this is only on the surface, who knows that there will be secrets What?”

“And according to the price, the gray stars will be 5 times more difficult than the white stars…”

“I’m afraid that if you go in, you will die if you accidentally go in!”

p>

“Sure enough, I’m still too weak!”

Goethe lightly sighed, more and more determined that must complete a hundred times quadratic baptism.

The more basic it is, the more likely it is to create miracles.

Once you take that step and want to go back again and achieve the same effect, you will have to pay a hundred times, a thousand times the price, or even a fundamental impossible reversal.

ten thousand zhang high

“I must build myself a foundation that is so strong that it cannot be ignored!”

“I, Goethe, always rely on myself!”

Goethe Thinking in the bottom of my heart, my eyes moved again, looking towards [Bloody Honor].

9 servings!

Thanks to the last harvest of ‘Secret Realm’, Goethe’s [Bloody Honor] has reached an unprecedented height.

For 9 copies of [Bloody Honor], Goethe naturally has a plan.

Nature is 【Steinbeck Breathing Technique】!

It’s not just the need for [heart]!

Also because, Goethe wants to know how much the Transcendent-level [Steinbeck Breathing Technique] can do.

And he almost finished half of the 10 [Bloody Honor] and 3000wgolden gram required for [Steinbeck Breathing Technique].

But the remaining half…

It’s a little harder!

In the ‘anchor world’ want to complete, almost impossible.

So, Goethe was thinking about going to the ‘Secret Realm’ of two bleak stars.

And that requires careful planning!

shook the head, Goethe put his thoughts down for a while.

It’s breakfast time.

His venison and prosciutto hadn’t finished yet.

After Goethe had eaten the last bit of food, the Archduke tapped the table.

Everyone sat up straight.

Not even Sierra.

Sierra doesn’t look very smart, but she managed to wink when she was the boss of the hunter’s bar, even though most of the time it was her teacher who gave her the finish. .

Of course, more often, it depends on whether she wants it or not.

Ordinary people, she is completely disinclined to pay attention to, and still does her own thing.

And the Archduke?

That’s different.

The Archduke not only provided her with lodging, but also provided her with food.

What should I do?

Sierra is naturally clear.

However, there is one thing Sierra will never admit.

She would never admit it, because she noticed that Goethe cared about the Archduke, and she followed suit.

“Today we are going to worship our ancestors.”

The Grand Duke announced.

This is not surprising to everyone. The Grand Duke mentioned it before.

“Can Nina do it?”

Semler Gram asked worriedly.

Nina didn’t show up for breakfast this morning.

Because, Nina is sick.

In fact, after arriving at Bear Castle, Nina suddenly fell ill-according to the doctor, it was because she was too tired on the way, Nina’s health was not very good, so she fell ill.

The Grand Duke and Semler Gram came to a similar conclusion after examination: the body was weak.

In the face of elder son’s question, the Grand Duke did not answer, but just pointed to the outside.

Everyone looked towards the corridor outside the restaurant.

About ten seconds later, I saw Nina in a long dress walking in from the outside, leaning against the wall.

Goethe, Semler Gram, Emil Gram, and Gegil Gram ran over immediately.

“I’m fine!”

“I can do it!”

“I’m going to see mother!”

There was firmness in the sickly voice.

Semler Gram checked the younger sister’s body again, and after a while, nods to Goethe, Emil Gram and Gegil Gram, indicating that it is really okay.

Everyone is relaxed.

“Nina, come and eat a little.”

“You will have strength when you are full.”

“You will get better when you are full.”

“Semler, Emil, Gegil, you take care of Nina, Goethe, Sierra you two, come with me.”

The Archduke gently stroked the top of his daughter’s head before instructing.

Goethe and Sierra followed the Archduke and left the restaurant.

The group of three walked out of the Bear Fort directly.

Came to a hill on one side.

There are grasses, flowers, trees, and small animals such as rabbits on the hillside.

Sierra saw the little animals and chased them with joy.

The Grand Duke looked at this scene with a smile.

“I think that little Jasmine also liked small animals back then, but, like her growing flowers, all the small animals can’t survive – alas, except for me.”

Grand Duke He seemed to have thought of something, and his face showed both happiness and melancholy, with a trace of painful memories.

“en?”

Goethe is a little unclear.

“Little Jasmine’s cooking skills are beyond words, but she loves cooking.”

The Duke bitterly laughed.

Suddenly, Goethe understood.

Not good at cooking, nothing.

But if you are not good at cooking, and you still love to cook, you will have to die.

When I was in my hometown, Goethe’s fatty friend was deeply tortured – the other’s wife was a poor cook, but she liked to tinker with some food to feed the fatty.

Those ingredients that were originally very common have become special after cooking with Old Feng.

Example: Double skin milk with seven toilet trips.

Example: 24 hours of vomit and diarrhea.

Example: The sweet soup of the hospital water-supply package.

In short, let someone you can’t guard against it.

According to his friend, the food made by Mrs. Old Feng and the mother of Mrs. Old Feng are all rejected. They don’t even feed the dogs, they don’t care about feeding the cats, and the only thing left is Poor fatty didn’t want to waste food, didn’t want to live up to his wife’s wishes, and ate with gritted teeth.

And then…

The above experiences often take turns.

So, Goethe really understands.

“You’ve worked hard.”

Goethe felt the same way.

“Ai, it’s actually a good thing – Goethe, do you know why I showed ‘innate talent’ far more than your two uncles who passed away?”

“Why? ?”

“Because, in order to be able to resist two more rounds of cooking under Xiao Jasmine’s cooking skills, I practiced [Volibear Breathing Technique] day and night, and it would appear that I have outstanding ‘innate talent’. .”

“Actually, I am innate talent.”

Archduke sighed.

“Effort is also a genius.”

“Then Aunt Jasmine must be very moved when she saw that you ate the food she made, especially when she found out that others didn’t eat it. “

“Yeah, she was very moved, so she did more, and in order to be able to resist, I could only continue to practice [Volibear Breathing Technique] through gritted teeth, until one day, I suddenly found , I far surpasses two brothers.”

Goethe at this time, I don’t know what expression to use.

He is obviously working hard and feeling very inspirational, but why does he want to laugh?

“I can have today, and now that I think about it, it’s because of little Jasmine’s ‘prompt’.”

“Also, some things, little Jasmine is even more far-sighted.”

“Example: George VI that bastard.”

“I believed him at the time—because, we had part of the same bloodline, and I thought George VI could be trusted, even as a kid Jasmine persuaded me, and I also think it was little Jasmine who was over-hearted.”

“But in the end?”

“It proves that little Jasmine is right.”

“Even, I relied on Little Jasmine to make a comeback.”

“Reversed that kind of complete, impossible and hopeful defeat.”

“I…”

“I miss her so much.”

The Grand Duke said softly, and began to bend over to pick flowers here.

Goethe followed, imitating the grand duke and picking together.

In the distance, Sierra was holding a stunned hare in her hand and started chasing another rabbit frantically. The rabbit ran away losing one’s head out of fear. Passed out on a tree.

Sierra picked up the rabbit and looked thoughtful at the tree.

A bouquet of flowers, red, pink, yellow, white, purple, multi-colored.

Once the Grand Master had skillfully tied up the mustard, he straightened up and took Goethe and Sierra back to Bear Castle.

As she walked, Sierra frequently looked back at the tree.

pa!

Goethe raised his hand and slapped the back of his head.

“Why are you hitting me?”

Sierra glared at Goethe.

“Staying around will starve people.”

Goethe sneered.

“However, the rabbits end up hitting them anyway—if I just let the rabbits hit each time, wouldn’t I have countless rabbits eating them?”

Sierra retorted.

“Tsk, then you might as well put up a sign on the edge of the cliff and say to all the chickens: If you don’t fly, how do you know if you can fly? Then, you will have countless chickens to eat. !”

Goethe curl one’s lip corner.

“It’s impossible!”

Sierra looked up at Goethe with a look of contempt.

“oh?”

Goethe looked at Sierra unexpectedly.

“A chicken that falls off a cliff is already broken and can’t be eaten!”

Sierra argues with the courage of one’s convictions.

“Go, go and guard the rabbits.”

“There won’t be enough rabbits to eat.”

“Bake in the morning, fry at noon, and stew at night. “

Goethe said grumpily.

He’s a fool to think Sierra has any ideas.

It’s really that the time spent with fools is so long that I’m going to become foolish.

In the future, you must stay away from fools!

Goethe thought so.

However, when Sierra was about to turn back, she raised her hand and grabbed the collar of her neck, dragging Sierra back to Bear Castle.

In the Bear Fort, the third son and the first daughter of the eldest duke are ready.

Everyone changed into black costumes.

He carried a basket with food and drinks in his hand.

As for small town girls?

At this moment, the other party is looking at him eagerly, looking like he really wants to go.

Only Gegil Gram waved coldly.

“Go back to the room and wait for me.”

Immediately, the small town girl bowed her head aggrievedly and walked back to the room cautiously.

Semler Gram, Emil Gram had no comment.

The two know something inside.

Nina couldn’t bear it, but she chose to believe in the big brother.

The same goes for Goethe, who believes Gegil has his own reasons for doing so.

The Grand Duke was the one who knew the whole sequence of events, so he also kept silent.

As for Sierra?

simply never paid attention to this small town girl, and even forgot the first meeting.

The small town girl stood at the end of the corridor, looking enviously as Sierra walked into the depths of the Bear Castle in the ranks of the Gram Family.

She thought too.

But when she thought of what she had done, her face immediately turned gloomy.

I can only silently return to the house, I hope Gegil will come back soon.

In the promenade of Bear Castle, the Gram Family and his party were still talking in a low voice at first, but as they went deeper and deeper, the voice gradually disappeared, and at the back, even the habitual frivolous Emil Gram, at this time also got serious.

Sierra gets moody and serious too.

The ruthless Sierra, Yan Zhi immediately returned to Peak.

Especially after keeping his mouth shut, even Goethe was willing to take a second look.

But soon, Goethe’s attention was on the door at the end.

Bronze door, glowing with azure.

The gate does not have any pattern, it is the most direct appearance.

A keyhole, located in the middle of the gate.

The Archduke took out the key, inserted it, and twisted it.

ka!

The latch snaps.

The door is open.
