Chapter 160 158: Overall Plan (Please subscribe and vote)
Luo Yi is a person who will not hesitate or waver once he has made a decision.

Therefore, when he boarded the carriage and returned to the city, he was no longer thinking about gains and losses, but about the situation he would face in the future, the actual situation of Flower Territory, and the many arrangements in Auckland City, etc.

However, after his thoughts had been wandering for a while, he felt a sense of exhaustion and was completely exhausted.

Although the magic of 'Angel's Kiss' healed his injuries, it did not mean that his mind had not been damaged during these days.

Only when he really returned to the city of Auckland did he feel the long-lost sense of security. Even on the carriage, he could hardly bear it.

He was in a trance, and when he woke up, he was already at 19 Lombard Street.

Many of his partners and friends also gathered here.

Originally, they wanted to have a detailed chat with Luo Yi, but seeing Luo Yi's tired look, they had no choice but to say goodbye.

Luo Yi exchanged a few words with them and sent them away. Then, with Lilia's help, he took a bath, had a quick meal, and prepared to go to bed for a nap.

It is worth mentioning that he went to see Oliveira before going to bed.

This iron-blooded man was also sleeping, his cold face was unusually peaceful.

However, Luo Yi actually saw some white hair on his head, and the wrinkles on his face were much deeper.

He had only seen this kind of situation in books. It was the result of excessive stimulation of fighting spirit, and even overdrawing of life.

In this battle, he was able to escape from the hands of a fourth-level oath knight, and the price he paid was absolutely beyond imagination.

Roy didn't actually feel much of the destruction of the Raymond family, but when he saw Oliveira, his teacher and friend, lying on the bed, he couldn't help but pursed his lips, and his eyes became sharp.

However, he did not stay in Oliveira's room for long. He just took a look and turned away.

In his own bedroom, Lilia had already changed into silk pajamas and was waiting for him.

That night, neither of them was in the mood to make love. Luo Yi just held Lilia in his arms, feeling that unique sense of peace, and fell asleep completely.

Lilia, on the other hand, held Luo Yi's head, supporting her short hair that was as thin as steel needles, her eyes full of heartache and determination.

Others may only see the achievements made by Roy, his extraordinary strength, his way of making money, and the huge income that Jin Tieer has made.

But she is the only one who can see Luo Yi's hard work and fatigue.

Luo Yi slept soundly and deeply, and when he woke up, a day and a night had passed.

When he opened his eyes, it was pitch black all around him. Moonlight was shining through the window, and it was as quiet as flowing water.

After this awakening, Luo Yi felt that his energy and spirit had returned to their peak, and his whole body felt refreshed.

I'm just so hungry!
Lilia was sleeping soundly, and Luo Yi did not disturb her. Instead, he tiptoed out of the house and prepared to go downstairs to find something to eat.

His footsteps were naturally very light and made almost no sound, but the old man's sleep was too light.

Mrs. Cassidy was awakened, and seeing Roy looking for food, she brought him food without saying a word.

There was at least three servings of bread, browned and greasy grilled meat, fragrant and rich mushroom soup, as well as vegetables, fruits, milk, coffee and desserts. Nothing was lacking.

Even a full meal would be of this scale. Roy was surprised and asked before he heard Mrs. Cassidy's explanation.

This was specially prepared by Lilia so that he and Oliveira could eat delicious food as soon as they woke up.

Luo Yi couldn't help but look up. Although he couldn't see anything, with a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for? !
After having a good meal and filling his stomach, Luo Yi even felt a sense of satisfaction.

Going up to the second floor again, Luo Yi was as careful as possible, but Lilia still woke up.

Seeing Luo Yi coming in, she threw herself into Luo Yi's arms like a young swallow returning to its nest. Luo Yi held her and walked to the window.

Sitting down in the chair by the window, Luo Yi moved his body to make Lilia more comfortable.

Neither of them spoke, but just looked up at the moon in the sky, as if they were both worried about something.

It was not until a long time later that Lilia spoke first: "I have decided, I want to go to the Norman Principality with you!"

Luo Yi frowned slightly: "Lilia, didn't I tell you about this?"

Lilia asked angrily: "Then tell me, is it because I inherited the title of Earl that you don't want me anymore?"

"You can choose any of those noble women, but you want to leave me here?"

"Why do you think so?"

Luo Yi explained with a bit of a smile: "You should know that this journey is dangerous. I can't even guarantee my own safety, so I naturally can't say that I can protect you.

Besides, when I am gone, the city of Oakland will need someone to help me look after all these businesses, and there is no one better suited than you.”

"Most importantly, in Oakland City, you can still research magical machinery. I'm afraid that you won't have the conditions to do so in Flower Territory."

Lilia stood up slightly, staring at Luo Yi's eyes with her sapphire eyes, and said: "Actually, you know that if you want someone to manage the industry, Mira is more suitable than me."

"I just want to follow you and watch you. Although I can't do anything, I will always stand behind you.

When you are tired, you can always come to me to rest. "

At this moment, Luo Yi really didn't know what to say. The only thing he could do was to hug Lilia tightly in his arms.

Feeling that softness, his heart became more determined.

……

The next day,

Roy prepared a banquet at his home at 19 Lombard Street. The dishes were all carefully prepared, some by Mrs. Cassidy's cooking, some by Mira Greenman's cooking, and some by Hoover's specialties brought from Provence.

Of course, most of them are actually the signature dishes that Ang bought from major hotels in Auckland.

Although the decoration is not very luxurious, the food and drinks are definitely not bad.

The guests that Roy invited to the banquet were his friends and important partners who cared about him the most.

Lady Linda, Gary Mills, Douglas Hill, Baron Miller.

Butler Hoover, Maruna, Ang, Mira Greenman and Lilia were all called.

At this banquet, Roy announced that he would return to the Norman Duchy to inherit...

No, it is a bit too much to use the word "inherit" now, but rather "strive for" the title of earl.

This news, like a thunderclap, struck everyone's heart and caused an uproar.

But when the surprise faded, they took it for granted.

After all, it was a county.

The nobles are the undisputed ruling class of the Old World. They are the best of the best. Who can refuse the opportunity?
However, even though they were prepared, they still felt that the mess left behind by Luo Yi's departure would be difficult to handle.

His current industry is really huge, involving magical machinery manufacturing, railways, secret medicine, textiles and other industries.

It is no exaggeration to say that nearly one-tenth of the workers in Oakland work for him.

The wealth and profits he created accounted for at least a quarter of Auckland's annual GDP, and all of them were fully taxed.

With such a large scale, and affecting the lives and work of countless people, he really can't just give up if he wants to.

That’s not even counting the various miscellaneous matters that need to be dealt with. The handover will not be completed in a short period of time.

The reason why Luo Yi needed half a month was that, on the one hand, he had to ensure that his fighting spirit could recover to its peak state and have sufficient strength before setting off.

On the other hand, all these things have to be arranged one by one, which is very troublesome.

However, after everyone was surprised, most of them just congratulated him.

The title of earl is enough to make countless people risk their lives.

There was no further discussion at this banquet as everyone needed to digest the information and Luo Yi had not figured out how to arrange it.

Instead, they toasted each other and started chatting. Luo Yi talked about the battle to provide support, and everyone was fascinated by it.

A fourth-rank warrior is definitely a superior being, a level that is simply unattainable under normal circumstances.

Loy was able to retreat from the battle, almost unscathed, and brought Oliveira back with him.

This matter is incredible in itself.

After the banquet, the news that Roy was about to leave had spread throughout the city of Auckland.

He is now involved in too many interests and I don’t know how many people have visited him.

Luo Yi, on the other hand, did not see any of them and stayed at home for three full days.

Of course, he was not idle during these three days. Instead, he was thinking about who he should take with him, who he should leave behind, how to arrange the follow-up, and how to develop.

He needs to come up with a comprehensive plan for all of this.

It is worth mentioning that during this period, Roy called Pal Paul over and the two met.

The matter is simple. He still has to give the compensation he promised.

One thousand gold Teal for the living, and one thousand five hundred gold Teal for the dead, including the trackers and the two mages.

Luo Yi’s idea is very simple. The other party may not want it, but he cannot not give it. This is a matter of principle for him to send people to do things.

Pal Paul originally wanted to refuse, as he said, the reason they were fighting so hard was because of the order of Grand Duchess Aphra.

However, when he heard the specific amount, his expression froze.

Because, it was not ten gold tyres, nor a hundred, but a full thousand.

The Norman Duchy is not the Habsburg Empire with its developed commerce. It is still a standard small peasant economy with limited harvests and outputs, and as for Gentile, it is even less.

The one thousand gold Tier that Loy gave was something that not only he but even the three extraordinary knights had never seen.

This has nothing to do with strength, it is purely due to the imbalance in economic development among regions.

Then, Pal Paul could no longer speak any more and say no.

Three days later, Duke Aphra led the team back to the Norman Duchy, and she left her maid behind.

Only then did Roy know that the pretty girl was named Eva Freke, and she would help Roy become familiar with all the affairs of the Norman Duchy.

On the same day, in the evening, when Roy saw off Duke Aphra's motorcade and returned to No. 19 Lombardy Street, he received a piece of news.

After sleeping for five full days, Oliveira finally woke up!

　I don't feel well today, a little stuck...
