System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1330: Spirit Reef Port Falls (1W)_7

“Entrust it to Sir Ludovico, to be used for the upcoming war, and for the future defense of Kakasong City!”
“The Henrik Clan will also send one thousand Gold Pounds…”
“The Mayer Clan…”
Listening to the statements made by the Free Nobility, wealthy merchants, and workshop masters.
Ludovico felt a sense of relief in his heart.
One Thousand Gold Pounds.
It was not a small sum, whether for him or for the others attending the meeting.
Even if calculated according to the current barley market price, one penny for three pounds, for conversion.
One Thousand Gold Pounds would be enough to purchase seven hundred twenty thousand pounds of barley!
Judging by the high price of five shillings for a slave, it would be sufficient to buy two thousand four hundred healthy slaves!
Ludovico could ask them to provide One Thousand Gold Pounds, or it could be eight hundred or five hundred Gold Pounds.
The reason for this.
Ludovico wanted them to pay a price while firming their stance!
Before any contributions, without bearing any costs.
They could easily be swayed by others, leading to a change in stance.
Once they put forth significant Gold Pounds, they would have no choice but to stand with his camp.
Glory shared, losses shared!
Until late at night.
With Ludovico’s words drifting away.
One by one, the Free Nobility, wealthy merchants, and workshop masters left the meeting room and returned to their own places.
Sitting in the chief seat, Ludovico glanced at Megan, who was swaying her full hips, intending to leave the meeting room.
Ludovico called out: “Lady Megan, please stay.”
“I still have some words I wish to discuss with you.”
Just about to leave, Harry turned around to look at Megan, who had stopped in her tracks.
Harry said nothing, nodded to Ludovico, and strode out of the meeting room.
Upon stepping over the threshold, Harry thoughtfully closed the meeting room door gently.
Standing in place, Megan moved her footsteps, facing Ludovico not far away.
With a gentle tone, Megan spoke.
“Sir Ludovico, is there anything further?”
Watching Megan turn around, her long skirt softly swayed with the wind, the elevated whiteness almost fully displayed.
Ludovico couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, playfully saying.
“Why?”
“Does Lady Megan stand so far away because she has a guilty conscience and fears me?”
A smile appeared on Megan’s face as she walked toward Ludovico with long strides.
As she walked, Megan said.
“You jest, Sir Ludovico.”
“Everything Megan does, is for Sir Ludovico, for the Free Nobility in Kakasong City…”
“How could I possibly fear you, Sir Ludovico?”
As Megan spoke, under the gaze of Ludovico.
Megan’s body bent, directly sitting atop Ludovico’s lap.
Feeling the comfortable softness coming from his legs and the unique mature woman’s scent emanating from Megan.
Ludovico felt a stir in his heart.
Raising his arms, Ludovico’s hands grasped Megan’s waist.
Due to her age, Megan’s waist naturally couldn’t be as slim as those young girls’ waists.
But, it still made Ludovico infatuated.
Ludovico’s right hand slipped under Megan’s robe, slowly wandering.
“Of course.”
“Lady Megan’s actions are all for Kakasong City, for the Free Nobility.”
“But more than that, for yourself, Lady Megan!”
Feeling the prominent rise in front, warmly embraced.
Megan showed no resistance, instead wrapping her arms around Ludovico’s neck.
Her lips curled upward, and her voice was full of softness and play.
“Indeed, Sir Ludovico.”
“There’s a saying that Megan always found truthful—every man for himself, or heaven will destroy you!”
