Chapter 278: Pa!

Now that Vivian was willing to sign the betting contract, the next step was much easier.

The discussion between the aristocrats was just for show. They had already reached a consensus on the donation in private. They had also discussed the contents of the gambling contract.

Soon, a contract written on high-quality parchment was presented to Vivian by the nobles.

The little girl lowered her head and scanned the contents of the contract on the parchment.

The terms of the bet were simple and clear, and they were not difficult to understand.

In summary, it was…

As per Vivian’s wishes, the Association of Aristocrats would donate 300,000 gold coins to the refugees outside the city, which was equivalent to 3,000,000 silver coins and 300,000,000 copper coins. This was indeed a considerable amount, almost enough to cover a year’s tax of Fire Code City.

But in reality, if he really wanted to restore the original appearance before the disaster, this bit of money was not enough.

Of course, Vivian knew that too.

Therefore, 300,000 gold coins was only used for the first phase. This was the plan that she had discussed with Mayor Thorin at the refugee camp outside the city earlier today.

The so-called first stage was the initial reconstruction of the Red Flame Town, which was located at the throat of the Dreadclaw Forest and was the largest lower town under the jurisdiction of the Fire Code City.

After the Fallen Abyss descended, countless villages had been destroyed. They had already suffered severe injuries. It would not be easy to recover. They could only do it bit by bit.

The strategy that Vivian and Mayor Thorin came up with was from the point to the surface, from top to bottom.

They knew that with the stingy level of the nobles, donating 300 ,ooo gold coins was already the limit. Therefore, how to maximize the use of limited resources was the problem they had to consider.

He would first gather his resources and rebuild Red Flame Town. Then, he would use it as a new stronghold to replace Fire Code City in receiving the huge number of refugees. Then, he would extend downwards and rely on his own strength. Like a tree branch, he would expand the surrounding villages.

The nobles did not object to this theory.

They were truly making things difficult for him. It was not exactly making things difficult for him. It should be said that they were openly plotting against him. It was the most crucial part of the bet, the ” time.”

It was to prove Vivian’s ability and to ensure that their donations were well spent.

The nobles only gave the little girl a month.

One month later, they wanted to see the initial results of Red Flame Town. The standard was to be able to accommodate all the refugees gathered outside the Fire Code City.

If Vivian really did it, then according to the gambling contract, they would continue to spend a lot of money and take out an additional donation of 300,000 gold coins.

On the other hand, if Vivian did not do it…

Then, the little girl would have to pay a total of three times the default debt, which was one million gold coins!

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Vivian had suffered a great loss in this bet.

Firstly, the price was unfair.

On the one hand, the noble association would work together to bear the burden, and it would only double the amount. On the other hand, Vivian would be alone, and if she failed, it would more than triple the amount.

One million gold coins was not something that even an earl could afford. It was tantamount to giving Vivian a life sentence. If she were to bear the burden, she would not be able to get out of it for generations, let alone for the rest of her life.

Secondly, it was also the most obvious part of the nobility’s shamelessness.

If this matter was really done, it would be extremely beneficial to them. Not only would it stabilize the public order and resentment of the people in Fire Code City, but it would also restore some of the family businesses and taxes as soon as possible. Where did the nobles ‘money come from? A large part of it relied on sucking the blood of the country bumpmpkins, imported cheaply and sold at a high price.

It was obviously a win-win situation, but the nobles were not greedy. They wanted to use Vivian’s kindness to firmly control the rising star of Fire Code City.

“Alright, no problem. Let’s start now.

Vivian put away the contract and nodded at the representative sent by the Aristocratic Association to express her acceptance.

[What are you doing, Vivian?!

The second personality in the mental space could not take it anymore.

Usually, in order not to disturb the little girl, she would always let herself fall asleep. Only when Vivian’s mood fluctuated greatly would she wake up and look at the situation outside.

In the end, the second personality could not wait to use a substitute to chop up all the nobles present with a sickle.

[They did it on purpose. Can’t you tell?!?

The second personality’s impatient voice came from the spiritual space.

But Vivian shook her head at her other self.

Could the little girl not tell?

It wasn’t like that.

Vivian believed that even without her, the nobles would still have taken out the money to rebuild.

But why did Mayor Thorin beg him so much to let her preside over it? It was because if the nobles were to do it themselves, it would be no less than a second disaster for the refugees.

That was 300,000 gold coins. If he was a little greedy, he would be able to live a

luxurious life for half his life. Naturally, he would save as much as he could and use the lowest configuration he could..
