Chapter 31 Get rich suddenly!

Loran chimed in, "Father's decision to entrust the management of the coastal town to my younger sister was indeed wise."

"Loris, where did you get those Demon Flame Stones? Did you discover a Demon Flame Stone mine?" Lorina asked.

"A mysterious merchant brought information about the Demon Flame Stone, which is located on a small island in the Elf Sea. There are many Demon Flame Stones on the island."

Loris had already prepared her explanation.

"An island in the Elf Sea?" Lorton frowned. "An island near the coast?"

"No, it's a small island in the deep sea."

Lorton's expression changed slightly.

"Exploring the deep sea is no safe place. No wonder that merchant was willing to sell you the information. Did you bring back all the Demon Flame Stones from the island?"

"Yes."

"Very good, take me to see it."

Loris hesitated for a moment, then led Lorton to the castle storeroom.

Loren and the others went together.

8 boxes of Magic Flame Stones, approximately 2000 stones.

"Such pure fire magic!" Loran exclaimed in amazement.

“This batch of Demon Flame Stones is of extremely high quality; it’s a top-quality Demon Flame Stone,” Loris said.

After a moment's thought, Lorton said, "Let's go back to the main hall and discuss how to distribute these Magic Flame Stones."

Loris hesitated, then ultimately said nothing.

Back in the hall, Earl Lorton said, "Lolis, this batch of Demon Flame Stones is too large. If the news gets to the ears of other nobles, they may covet it."

Moreover, you borrowed a lot of money for this batch of Demon Flame Stones.

The expenses in Jinhai Town this time are considerable, and it will likely be difficult to repay the borrowed money.

"How about this, you don't need to repay the 50,000 gold coins I borrowed from you; you can just exchange them for 1000 Demon Flame Stones."

Loris's expression changed.

“Father! Each of these fine magic flame stones is worth nearly 200 gold coins, and 5 gold coins can only be exchanged for a maximum of 250 stones!”

Lorton looked displeased. "Lorris! Are you doing business with your family?"

Loris immediately deflated.

Even her elder brother, Lord, had no say in front of their father, let alone her, who was just a minor baron.

Lorton continued.

"Loris, I've told you many times that if the family wants to develop better, we must help each other."

When you borrowed money from us, did we ever hesitate even for a moment?

Shouldn't you give back to your family for the business you started with money borrowed from them?
Or are you planning to sell these Demon Flame Stones to outsiders to pay back the money?

Loris had nothing to say.

Lord said expressionlessly, "Little sister, you don't need to pay back my 20,000. Just exchange it for Demon Flame Stones."

Loran coughed lightly, "Little sister, I only have five thousand here, which is about 100 Demon Flame Stones."

Loris's expression grew increasingly grim.

She wasn't particularly close to her siblings to begin with.

Especially these two older brothers.

When she was born, Lord and Loran already had their own territory.

Lolina originally came for the Demon Flame Stone.

Seeing Lolis in such a state, she couldn't bear it.

"Little sister, I don't need that much. Just give me a reasonable price and sell me a little bit."

After a period of division, it was finally divided up.

Of the 2000 Demon Flame Stones, she could only keep 400.

Loren then said, "Sister, you don't need to pay back the 1000 gold coins I borrowed from you. Just give me 20 magic flame stones."

Everyone present looked at Loren, their eyes filled with shock.

They are borrowing money, you are borrowing money, how can they be the same?

Loren asked, puzzled, "What's wrong? Did I calculate it correctly?"

Lolina stepped forward and patted Loren on the shoulder, sighing helplessly, "Can't you be a human being? Your sister is in this state, and you're still angry with her?"

Lorton spoke again, this time in a much gentler tone.

"Loris, you've essentially obtained 400 Magic Flame Stones without spending a single penny. These Magic Flame Stones are enough for you to advance to Earth Knight, and you can even train a group of elite knights."

The Silver Moon Clan also needs the Demon Flame Stone to enhance its strength and consolidate its position.

I hope you all understand that your family is your strongest support.

Loris remained silent, but her complexion had improved considerably.

Actually, she was the one who took out these 2000 Demon Flame Stones to distribute, and she didn't feel bad about it at all.

The Earl of Lorton's caravan stayed overnight in a coastal town.

Under the Earl's orders, 2000 Demon Flame Stones were divided up.

Earl Lorton has 1000 coins, Lord has 400, Loran has 100, Lolina has 100, and Loris has 400 left.

Loren was somewhat disappointed that he didn't get a share of the Demon Flame Stone.

morning.

After distributing the Demon Flame Stones, the Earl's caravan prepared to leave.

They had already been to Shashi Town, so there was no need for them to take a detour on their way back.

Before parting, Earl Lorton patted Loris's head and said, "Loris, don't be angry with your father. Focus on building up the coastal town. Keep in touch."

"Yes." Loris forced a smile.

Lorton turned to look at Loren, "You too, don't act recklessly like before, and discuss things with Xuefu more often."

He arranged the marriage between Loren and Xuefu because he valued Xuefu's abilities.

As for Loren, he had almost given up hope.

He knew how disappointing his son was.

Loren's performance in the past two days has far exceeded his expectations.

But that's about it.

The two older brothers and the older sister said goodbye one after another.

The convoy left from the direction of Tieling Town, but Loren couldn't get a ride, so he stayed behind.

Once he confirmed that the team had gone far away, Loren finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The Earl's departure from the caravan meant that all the Demon Flame Stones in Sandstone Town now belonged to him and Loris.

Now I’m really rich!
Loris glanced at Loren, her eyes equally bright, "Let's go upstairs and talk."

The Demon Flame Stones that Earl Loton took were only a small portion; the rest were the real prize.

Inside the office of the near-sea castle.

Loren and Loris are discussing what to do with these Demon Flame Stones.

Loris said, "I'll leave my 3000 Demon Flame Stones with you for now, and then I'll have someone secretly transport them back to Nearshore Town in a few days."

"3000 coins? Little sister, is there something wrong with your math?"

"What's wrong with that? We agreed on a 50/50 split, with Father and the brothers taking 2000 Demon Flame Stones each, and the rest each getting 3000. Isn't that right?"

Loren sneered, "Sister, who are you trying to fool?"

With this distribution of Demon Flame Stones, the debt owed by Nearshore Town is wiped clean.

You've essentially gotten an evolution crystal for free, plus 15,000 gold coins, and you're still not satisfied?

"whispering sound."

Loris pursed her lips.

She just said it casually, what if Loren didn't realize it and agreed?
“Sister, given our current alliance, there’s no need to distinguish between you and me.”

Loris stared coldly at Loren. "So? What are you trying to say?"

"I think the sooner you use that evolution crystal, the better."

"How about this, we'll keep this evolution crystal for our first Pokémon, whoever's Bug evolves first."

"Get lost."

"My sprites are all newly born, you have the advantage!"

Loris looked at Loren suspiciously, "You didn't find a little elf somewhere, did you?"

Loren smiled without saying a word.

Lolis probably never imagined that the Rose Fairy Bug he recently acquired would soon evolve into a little fairy!

Thinking of this, Loren was eager to go home.

He needs to hurry back to use the Magic Flame Stone to build the town and evolve the Spirit Bug!
