Ridicule, naked ridicule. Her background has always been the Baroness’s biggest problem, preventing her from integrating into the aristocratic circle.
Normally, if anyone dared to bring this up, she would have to fall out on the spot. But she couldn’t do it now. Her precious son was still hanging on the pillar, making it impossible for her to be strong.
Looking at the baroness who was too angry to speak, Hudson sighed secretly. The hint was so obvious that no one could hear the implication, so the play was in vain.
Sure enough, this kind of high-end gameplay is not suitable for everyone.
But it’s right to think about it. If the Baroness was really that powerful, this kind of thing wouldn’t happen, and most of the brothers wouldn’t be able to grow up smoothly.
Perhaps this is also the reason why she can become a baroness. She is obviously too smart to be a stepmother.
After a pause, Hudson said helplessly: “Okay, madam. For your sake, I can let Raisul go for once, but this requires compensation.”
The sudden turn made the Baroness unable to keep up with the rhythm for a moment. Perhaps it was her innate talent, but when she heard the word “compensation”, her expression was obviously shocked.
“what do you want?”
As soon as the words left her mouth, the Baroness realized the gaffe. You are now at a disadvantage, so rushing to deliver it to your door is obviously not in line with the principles of doing business.
Hudson frowned and talked about the price directly. It was too tacky and completely inconsistent with his aristocratic demeanor. Just thinking about his shriveled pocket made him lose his confidence.
“500 gold coins!”
It’s not that he doesn’t want other things, the main reason is that the real owner of the castle is still his father. Apart from some money in the hands of the baroness, she can’t make the decision at all.
“Why don’t you go and grab it?”
Blutting out almost instinctively, it was obvious that the figure that Hudson thought was reasonable far exceeded the Baroness’s expectations.
“Madam, please respect yourself!”
“According to the common practice in continental wars, the ransom of a noble knight is 500 gold coins. My asking price is completely in line with the rules. Madam, please abide by the rules.”
Hudson said expressionlessly.
Everything becomes serious once rules are involved. Although it is a bit nonsense to match one’s worth with the ransom of a prisoner of war, it is not entirely unreasonable.
Although the Baroness knew that Lesueur would not die, the matter was not over as long as Hudson did not let go.
If we don’t settle the matter now before the news spreads, and wait for other members of the Koslow family to intervene, things will not be so simple.
“Three hundred gold coins, this is the limit I can bear. Hudson, you should know that this is not a small amount of money. It can almost catch up with the territory’s income for half a year.”
the Baroness argued. Unexpectedly, Hudson kept smiling and said nothing, and did not participate in the bargaining at
