Lord: The inheritance right is taken away at the beginning

Chapter 5 Seeking Funding

"It's Luo Ning."

In the room, Lu Lans leaned against the head of the bed. He heard Luo Ning's voice and was a little surprised why this grandson was so attentive today. "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

"Hehehe~"

Luo Ning came to the bed with a smile and pretended to be embarrassed.

"Grandpa, I just learned about the situation in Shanlin Town. It's still quite poor and dangerous over there. It's not safe for me to go there alone."

"Cough cough!" Lu Lans coughed twice.

He thought that the child had grown up, but he didn't expect that he would still be afraid of difficulties, which made Lu Lans a little unhappy: "So you are not going to go?"

"No!"

Luo Ning was very determined: "Since I want to atone for my sins and do something for my family, I will not back down because of this little danger!"

"Oh?" Lu Lansi's expression eased a little.

Luo Ning chuckled, "But grandpa, it would be difficult for me to go there alone."

He even shook Lulans's old hand in a daughter-like manner: "So I hope the family can arrange some guards or elite soldiers for me and then provide me with some gold coins so that I can buy some food, weapons, and equipment."

"Grandpa, you don't want me, your eldest grandson, to die before I even get to Hillwood Town. I want to come back this year to attend your birthday party!"

"Hahaha..."

Lu Lans laughed, firstly because Roning was considering his birthday now and secondly because of Roning's growth. He didn't expect that this unlearned guy would take the initiative to consider future matters and even know how to ask for resources.

He has confirmed that the child has really grown up.

"You also know that I have let your father take care of family affairs for more than ten years. Now, he and his knights arrange the transfer and allocation of guards. You can only go to your father for this matter. I am afraid I can't help you with anything."

This kind of word is obviously an excuse.

Wiggins was so afraid of Lulans, so whether to give resources to Roning was just a matter of Lulans's words.

Roning had no choice but to act pitiful: "After my mother died, my father always hated me. Now, if I go to him to ask for resources, he will not only scold me, but he might even beat me up."

At this point, it was time to play the emotional card. He cried, "Grandpa taught me how to read, ride a horse, and hunt. Now, you are not even willing to support your grandson. Who is about to go on a long journey?"

"If it doesn't work, even if I borrowed it from the family, I will pay it back little by little later!"

Is face important?

Of course, it is important!

But it also depends on the occasion.

As the saying goes, the crying child gets the milk, and Luo Ning is now going to play the role of a crying child.

As for the dispute between the Wushan Family and the Border Earl's Family caused by him, he simply stopped thinking about it and pretended that it was not him who did it.

Yes, those things were done by his predecessor. What does it have to do with him, Roning?

Whether the old Marquis was angry or unhappy, he was just going to come here today with a thick skin to get as much as he could.

Fortunately, the dying old man Lu Lan Si was still very nostalgic, especially when Roning mentioned teaching literacy, horse riding, and hunting. His heart was deeply touched.

He had to admit that he had invested a lot of emotions in Roning.

Now, facing the request of this grandson whom he had placed endless hope on, his heart softened again.

"Okay, okay. I agree."

Lu Lans said helplessly, then turned to look at the old butler who was waiting on the side.

"Most, tell Wiggins to give Ronin 100 gold coins in my name and other supplies, such as food, guards, and horses. As a father, he should also show his appreciation. After all, Ronin is his son, a child of my Wushan family."

"Yes, sir!" The old butler bowed and left the room to inform them.

Luo Ning grinned and said, "Thank you for your support, Grandpa. I will definitely run Shanlin Town well!"

"Then do your best!"

Lu Lansi smiled and slowly lay down, "When you have time, remember to come back to the castle more often."

"I will."

Luo Ning knew that this was an order to leave, so he stood up, pulled a corner of the blanket to cover Lu Lans' chest, and left the room.

"This child has really grown up."

Lu Lan Si looked at Luo Ning's back as he left and sighed, "It's a pity that it's too late. It's a pity that he hasn't mastered fighting spirit or magic."

As the pioneer of the Marquisate, Lulans naturally hoped that his family would continue to be strong and not pin his hopes on outsiders.

Unfortunately, when he was alive, his former followers had no idea about it, and even if they did, they would not take action.

But once he dies, it's hard to say.

Letting Bretton inherit and binding the Hyde family with the Wushan family is the best option.

As for Ronin, whether he was conferred the title of Baron or given 100 gold coins in funding meant nothing to Lulans.

If Roning made progress, he would be happy to see it, but if Roning still didn't make any achievements, he wouldn't be angry.

On the other side, Roning walked out of the old Marquis's house and looked at the quiet garden in front of him, feeling refreshed immediately.

One hundred gold coins, plus his own balance, a total of 128 gold coins, were enough for him to purchase many resources. At least he didn't have to worry about starving in the remote mountain town.

"Since Grandpa has given the order, even if my stepfather is unwilling, he will at least support it a little, right?"

Luo Ning thought about it and gave up the idea of ​​going out to the market.

Firstly, it was getting dark, and secondly, he wanted to see what Wiggins would give him.

If the initial supplies were sufficient, he would not need to go out to purchase them.

…

Soon, in the luxurious living room, Wiggins' angry questioning caused the crystal chandelier on the ceiling to shake uneasily.

"What? You want me to provide that guy with resources and support?"

"Is father confused? This Luo Ning has brought huge losses to the family. We didn't expel him from the family, but now he wants me to support him?"

The rugged man took a big sip of beer and shouted angrily, "No way! I can't waste another grain of food or soldier on him!"

"But Lord Earl, Lord Marquis said that Master Luo Ning is the blood of the Wushan family after all. How about Lord Earl? Can you give a little support?"

The old butler Moster stood aside in a very awkward position. On one side was the Marquis's order, and on the other was the Earl, who always had a bad temper. He didn't dare to say anything or speak too much.

"Just do as Father says."

At this time, the beautiful young woman sitting on the sofa nearby spoke.

Diane Hyde, this woman over 40, is still beautiful and charming. Her long, curly golden hair is casually draped on the sofa, making her leaning posture even more seductive.

"Father is right. No matter where Luo Ning goes, he is still the bloodline and eldest grandson of our Wushan family. If something happens to him before he arrives in Shanlin Town, it will not be a good thing for the Wushan family or the Hyde family if the news gets out."

"He killed your niece!"

Wiggins glanced at his wife unhappily, "You're still speaking for him."

Hallward stood aside and wiped the sweat off his forehead. He had been waiting for the master and the mistress to separate before telling Wiggins what Roning had said. After all, he mentioned his ex-wife.

Now, it seems that we can't wait any longer.

Hallward pondered for a moment, then bowed and said carefully, "Master, when I went to Young Master Luo Ning just now, he also wanted me to tell you."

"What do you want to tell me?"

Wiggins said in a cold voice. Why didn't he realize that his son was so talkative before?

"He said, please give him some support for the sake of his mother, Fatima Sari."

There are some things that Hallward automatically omitted, as it would have been inappropriate to say them out loud.

But just this one sentence made Wiggins stunned for a moment, and a beautiful face emerged in his mind. That was his white moonlight, his first true lover.

"Humph, the only thing he can do is bring up his mother!"

Dai Anni didn't seem to mind mentioning her husband's ex-wife. She smiled gently and said, "Yes, I heard that you made a vow to take care of Luo Ning as much as you could."

"Then we have to see what kind of guy Ronin is!"

Wiggins took another sip of wine and said to Hallward, "Just do as Father said and give Roning some support."

He paused, then said, "Don't give me too much. Prepare it first, and I'll check it later."

"Yes, sir," Hallwart responded with a smile.
