Chapter 52

Chapter 52. The boat passing the Grin River is made within 10 years.

In the original the female lead rode this boat and went from the south to the north in less than a week.‘Otherwise can't meet both Lus in the north and the sub male lead in the south.’ Then caught doing 19 gold with the male lead, and knife fighting breaks out between the male lead and sub male lead too.

Anyway the important thing is the boat that can come and go the Grin River is made, and that boat earns enormously money.‘In the original it was the Emperor's possession, but now no owner.’ It was time to find the person who made the boat passing the Grin River, commonly called ‘Grin Ship’.

“Butler, this time challenging making a boat would be good?”

“Surely trying to make a boat that comes and goes the Grin River?”

“Yeah.”

At my answer Treon laughed as if unavoidable.

“If Madam knew would come out like that.”

“I have that feeling?”

“A person with strong will pushing as if there's no impossible matter in the world. And the ability to perform that also overflows.”

Seemed seeing me too well so embarrassed.

“So not starting making the boat from the beginning, where is this time's goal?”

I grinned and told the target.

“Know the Jaod Merchant Union?”

The madman who stabbed the uncle with a knife and went to prison, the unparalleled genius who made the Grin Ship.

It was time to meet Milsy Plata.* * *Several days passed since starting the investigation about the Jaod Merchant Union.

“Amazing? Did all this our family's spies investigate?”

“Yes! This level is amazing, Madam!”

Butcher looked at me with sparkling eyes.

“Yeah! Didn't expect much but amazing?”

“Saying didn't expect, too much!”

“But the location is the location.”

The Jaod Merchant Union's territory was in the south.

Thanks to diligently scattering money and growing the secret organization these few months now took root quite in the north, but thought obtaining information about the south would be impossible.

“Still there's a lacking part.”

“That can't be helped. That vicinity our organization kids have never been.”

Butcher carefully watched my mood and said.

“Madam, still our kids work hard! Don't eliminate or such? I dislike doing the monster butchering work again.”

“What rude act to Madam.”

Even at Treon's scolding Butcher pleaded.

“Madam, really will eliminate?”

Anyway to Butcher the secret organization being disbanded overnight by the previous generation seemed remained as a big trauma.

“No thought of eliminating from now on so no need to worry.”

Thinking of other families' informants continuing for at least 10 years, long for several hundred years, Butcher's ability collecting information to this extent in a few months was amazing.

Still there's a lacking part, but that time would resolve.

“For now the Jaod Merchant Union.”

When I opened my mouth, Butcher and Treon who were bickering among themselves concentrated on me like dogs who heard the master's call.

“Anyway seems I have to go directly to the south. There's content a bit like that to send by letter.”

“Can make us do... If Madam goes directly won't it be hard?”

At Butcher's asking words I nodded.

“Better to do the work surely. Rather well. Starting from the capital is much faster than starting from the north.”

“Have to look for a place to stay in the south.”

“Will you do that?”

And a few days later, an unexpected guest came to find me.* * *“You, said planning to go to the south!”

At the Summerhild Duke's words I didn't even ask how knew.

Rather if the Summerhild Duke didn't notice it would be more not making sense.

“Yes. There's a merchant union interest goes to.”

“Ah ah, heard. Was it the Jaod Merchant Union? Heard owned by the Jaod Viscount in the south.”

“Right. If the Duke also knows seems quite a famous merchant union.”

“No way. Investigated because you have interest these days. No way I care even what merchant union a nobody like the Jaod Viscount operates?”

If so fortunate.

If the Summerhild Duke had interest almost became awkward with each other.

“So speaking this time how about coming to our family's territory? I'll formally invite you. Will be much more convenient for you to act.”

Definitely if receiving the Summerhild Duke's invitation it seemed would become easier for me to act.

The south is not a place where Valfruga ducal house people act actively, and if using the status of the Duke's guest would be much more convenient to meet southern nobles too.

“Good.”

At my acceptance the Summerhild Duke burst into big laughter.

“Good! Well! Very well! Just there was a person I wanted to introduce to you, if meeting going would be perfect!”

“To me? Who is that person?”

A noble mainly acting in the south?

At my question the Summerhild Duke grinned.

“My son.”

“...”

Come to think of it the Summerhild Duke previously said to come in as daughter-in-law.

After rejecting forgot black for a while.

“Said to come in as my daughter-in-law. You also might like if meeting once.”

“I already have a husband.”

“Know, know well. Last time also rejected my proposal because of that. But seeing the appearance of you participating in the five great meeting this time, greed arose again.”

Couldn't understand from which part greed arose. In the five great meeting only remembered doing the acting of trembling.

“That spirit of following to protect her own husband with a body that can't even swing a sword properly! That will!”

“...”

“Thought a talent perfect for our family pushing stubbornly.”

Seeing my appearance awkwardly laughing without saying anything the Summerhild Duke winked as if trying to relieve tension.

“It's a joke.”

Not heard like a joke at all.* * *Petal was a loyal vassal who assisted the Summerhild Duke for a long time.

Petal who saw the appearance of the Summerhild Duke coming out of the Valfruga ducal house's mansion smiling asked bluntly.

“Seeing smiling seems the Duchess Valfruga accepted our invitation.”

“Right. Really well, isn't it? Don't know why that child Felia has interest in a small place like the Jaod Merchant Union, but thanks to that could invite to the south. If hearing this story the wife would also be happy.”

“To me rather don't know why the Duke has interest in that girl to that extent...”

Should have known from when showing curiosity hearing the story about the Matek Count house and going directly.

“Well because that much an amazing child, isn't it.”

“Where? A bit cute and smart but... not an ordinary girl?”

“Even knowing first told me to share the Matek Count house such words come out?”

“But after that no particular activity, isn't it.”

“If really thinking that you are an unprecedented idiot in the world. See that scenery.”

The Summerhild Duke looked outside the window.

The appearance of Empire people chanting the Duke Valfruga's name was visible.

“Remember how the Valfruga ducal house was 1 year ago?”

“...

Debt was enormously many.”

“Right. But in less than 1 year cleared all that debt, won in the territorial war, and now made Empire people shout the Duke Valfruga's name. Amazing, isn't it?”

“What... was surprising. What, good. All good. But sincerely ask only one putting all out!”

“You, today particularly many curious things.”

The Summerhild Duke answered in a tone of annoying, but Petal was persistent.

“Really if divorcing the Duke Valfruga planning to take as daughter-in-law? That's a joke, right?”

“It's true.”

“My goodness.”

Seeing Petal's astonished appearance, the Summerhild Duke giggled.

“It's true but no way will be realized so don't worry.”

“How so confident!”

“If that child I saw won't come even abandoning the Valfruga ducal house she cherished and raised. So a person more coveted though.”‘And the Duke Valfruga also doesn't seem will let go.’ The Summerhild Duke recalled the red eyes persistently chasing Felia.

Guys with such eyes absolutely don't get their own taken away.

Come to think of it previously also said the territorial war broke out because of his wife.

Other nobles guessed rights of the territory entangled behind that.

The Summerhild Duke also thought that.

Although the Duchess Valfruga suffered murder threat, cases going to territorial war were rare.

But the Summerhild Duke who directly saw the Duke Valfruga could be sure.

Whatever the reason that war was for the wife.

Still young, but a madman to the extent of not hesitating war for his wife.‘What, anyway as long as maintaining a good relationship only with that child Felia that side no need to care.’ Later, the Summerhild Duke recalls.

Knowing early where the initiative of the Duke Valfruga couple is at that time was his biggest fortune.* * *“Madam, look at that! There's enormously many grains!”

At Bella's words I looked outside the carriage.

In the endlessly spread plain golden grains undulated.

On the trees planted on the street all sorts of fruits hung in clusters, and various colors of flowers boasted their appearance.‘There's a saying no beggar starving to death in the south...’ Seemed the belly would be full even just picking and eating fruits from the trees.

Perhaps because of that everyone overall had leisure in the expression.‘As expected the first Duke Valfruga should have gone to the south.’ Not going to the north pretending loyal for nothing.

In the end abandoned in the center and completely collapsed.

I cursed the first Duke again and saw the people passing on the street.

Overall thanks to the warm weather people's attire was also different in many ways from the north.‘Such exposure is long time no see.’ Unlike the north made of thick cloth and leather tightly closing to the neck, southern people's attire was made of thin cloth.

Unlike me who saw all sorts of attires in Korea before possession, Bella whether first seeing such a scene repeated only the words ‘Oh my’, ‘My goodness’ with mouth open.

A scenery different in many ways from the Valfruga ducal house experiencing harsh winter.

Arriving at the Summerhild ducal house, the lined knights welcomed us.

Getting off the carriage, this time an elegant noble lady sparkled her eyes looking at me.
