I Shall Master This Family's

Chapter 30

Gallahan and Clerivan sat facing each other.

What is surprising is that Clerivan gave Gallahan a special seat.

It was awkward, but anyway, as Clerivan pointed out, Gallahan sat in a padded chair and spoke with a dry mouth.

"I know you're busy, but the reason I'm looking for this is to get advice."

"You don't have to come to me like this, and you should have called me to Top Durak."

"It's not about the Coroi cotton business. I'm here for advice on my personal business."

Gallahan Lombardy's personal business.

Gallahan was quite interested.

The business words with Gallahan, who had always lived in the mansion's library or the pleasure of reading books in his own library, did not match.

Arguably, the last Coroi cotton project was forcibly entrusted to Gallahan.

But now he's trying to start a personal business.

Clerivan thinks he might have to reevaluate Gallahan.

"I don't know how much help I can get, but just say it comfortably."

Clerivan said in a more comfortable voice.

To be honest, if it was someone else, he would have kicked her out, saying that there was not much free time.

But curiously, Clerivan showed a weaker appearance to Florentia.

He had no idea that Gallahan was coming, Clerivan would listen to his story so easily, and would give him a little advice.

Seeing him hesitating for a moment in nervousness, Clerivan said calmly.

"I'm not saying that I'm going to hear the story because time is running out, Gallahan."

"ah! My fault, I'm sorry. So my plan is..."

Gallahan, whose throat was trimmed, began to explain in a wise voice.

It was a slightly more sequential introduction than the explanation he always did with Florentia in the morning.

But it was still rambling, and Gallahan had to talk about it long enough.

When that long explanation was completed, Gallahan had a sore throat.

However, unaware of his condition, he was nervous and busy seeing Clerivan's reaction.

Clerivan said nothing.

Then Gallahan was terrified.

Is that a bad plan?

Enough to lose something to say?

As time passed, and in the end, when Gallahan squeezed his shoulders in disappointment, Clerivan suddenly opened his mouth.

"It's amazing."

" yeah?"

"Of course, there are complementary points."

"All, of course. What point?"

ask Galahan in a hurry.

But Clerivan didn't give the right answer.

"There's one condition."

"What?"

"Please let me be with you in this business, Gallahan."

Gallahan blew his eyes.

He wondered what he was hearing now.

"I'll say it again, but Gallahan's business plan is great."

"Then, did you say it was good?"

"Yes. To be honest, this is amazing."

Clerivan admitted that he underestimated a man named Gallahan Lombardy.

"But, with my advice, the project was a huge success and I'd be very hungry if I couldn't participate, so if you accept my terms, I'll tell you the exact points."

Gallahan smiled and suddenly became a serious expression.

"But Mr. Clerivan don't you have a contract with Lombardy? It's my personal business, not Lombardy's...."

Gallahan wanted an independent asset that was not tied to Lombardy's name.

He wanted the power to protect Florentia from the storm that would one day settle in the next Lord's house.

No matter how desperate Clerivan's help was, he couldn't rely on Lombardy's strength anymore.

However, suddenly, a smile bloomed on Clerivan's face.

It was a very satisfying smile.

"That kind of caution, even better."

Then he said as if there was no need to worry.

"The contract between me and Lombardy is a fixed-term employment contract, not a lifetime contract. Also, don't worry, we have a clause stating that you can work as much as possible."

It was a new contract made by moving to the position of an education center at the request of the lord.

"In that case, I'd rather ask for it! Let's do it together, Clerivan!"

Gallahan was very pleased and extended a hand.

Clerivan, who was looking down for a moment, also reached out.

After a brief handshake, Clerivan said in a more relaxed voice.

"After the details of the profit distribution will be adjusted later, I will start with additional steps."

Gallahan nodded solemnly at Clerivan's words.

It seemed like he was watching Florentia in class, and Clerivan burst into laughter.

"The target of this business should be ordinary people, not nobles."

"Ordinary people?"

It was the opposite direction of the plan that Gallahan made.

"Yes. So, of course, the location of the store should be at Heslot Market, not Sedakyuna."

Located on the other side of the Sedakyuna shopping street, Heslot Market is a large commercial district located in the Emperor's direct command center.

Unlike Sedakyuna, which was relatively quiet, it was always noisy and boasted a large floating population with people gathered from all over the empire.

"And......."

The meeting between the two continued a short while after that.

If it wasn't time for Clerivan to go to the meeting, it would probably last until sundown.

Clerivan asked as he stood up with a slightly tired face from the enthusiastic discussion, staring at Gallahan.

"Is this God?"

"What are you talking about?"

"The one who asked you to go see me for some advice."

Clerivan was more than half convinced.

It was said that Lulak had moved his back towards her to support his youngest son, but Gallahan smiled and shook his head.

"No, it's Florentia."

"Yes?"

Gallahan was scared, but he sincerely thanked Clerivan.

"This is proof that Mr. Clerivan taught our Florentia very well. Thank you." Thank you."

She received a thank you from her parents, but Clerivan could not laugh.

It could be that a child tells the story of a teacher who seems to know everything.

Gallahan seemed to think that way.

However, for some reason, Clerivan continued to think of the deep Florentia eyes.

And he kept hearing a strong premonition as if it was no coincidence that Gallahan came to him.

* * *

I visited Dr.'s lab. O'Malley in the morning as soon as my father goes to work.

Fortunately, it's still morning, so there's only Estira in the lab.

She must be in a bad mood after missing the recommendation letter in front of me and Jason's grunt.

As if nothing had happened today, he was constantly doing his job.

I really want to help Estira.

As I quietly opened the door and entered, Estira, who diligently cleaned the desk in the lab, looked at me and greeted me.

"You're here, miss."

"Good morning, Esti!"

"You look better today."

"I thought of a good way!"

"Is that a good way?"

Estira opened her eyes.

"It's good to get a letter of recommendation to Estira."

"Miss Florentia ......"

Estira looked at me as if she was touched.

"Estira, you know the book you showed me before."

"My grandmother's recipe book?"

"Yes, that. Can you show it again?"

When I went in and out for wrist treatment, I asked Estira a lot of questions.

The first is to get acquainted, and the second is to find out as much as possible about him.

One of the things I learned about that was about Estira's grandmother.

Despite being in a small village, it seems that she helps people with treatment that is passed down from generation to generation using various medicinal herbs available around a place that no clinic exists.

And because of her influence, Estira said that she had known medicinal herbs from the beginning, and she thought she wanted to help people who were sick.

"of course. Please wait."

Estira brought a notebook from her desk in the corner of the lab.

It was an old notebook with a stain on the cover.

I picked it up and turned the page halfway through.

"Can you explain a little more about this drug?"

Estira looked at the part I pointed at and said.

"It was a medicine my grandmother made and told me to take it to people who had sprained their ankles or injured their shoulders while working in the village."

Estira Laughs as if she misses her grandmother, she reads her grandmother's handwriting.

"It's a drug passed down by word of mouth in our family for a long time, so it's not written in the official book... It is a drug that relieves swelling and reduces pain to some extent."

"How do you use this? Is this a cure to eat?"

"No. I use this remedy by wetting it with a cloth and putting it in the sore spot."

I asked as if I had forgotten, but my memory was correct.

I added some important questions that were not written.

"Can this medicine be used for a long time?"

"Yes. When I work, there is always a place where everyone is sick. Some people use it every night for a few months."

"How does it smell? Doesn't smell good?"

"No. Smells a little sweet. The main ingredient is dried tree nuts."

Perfect.

But I tried to hide my excitement and said calmly.

"Let's change it a little. Can we make it thick like the last Melcon cure?"

Estira immediately nodded at my words.

He didn't even ask me where I was going to use it.

"Yes, young lady."

His eyes are full of trust in me.

I smiled at Esti.

If this goes according to plan, I can safely send Estira to the Imperial Academy.

"Ah, and are there any herbs that feel cool when eaten or applied to the body?

"If it's cold, there's a tea leaf called Hipshee."

"A, Hipshee!"

I've had it before.

tea leaves like mint leaves make my mouth feel cold.

"Prepare as a separate concentrate."

"Why hipshee..."

"Natural foods also smell better to make them taste better. Medications can also. It's important to make it feel like something's working."

"Ah, as expected"

Estira now even looked at me respectfully.

I shrugged my shoulders as if this was no big deal.

"i'll ask you to take the beeswax and oil and send it here. You'll mix two concentrates there."

Medications that relieve swelling and have a slightly soothing effect, tea leaves that feel cool like mint, and beeswax.

I laughed when I remembered the medicine that would be born by combining them.

Ointment with tiger pictures. [1]

I tried reproducing what used to be called a national ointment and used as a panacea for arthritis, headaches, and stuffy noses.

And I will send Estira to the academy with that.

With two glowing letters of recommendation!

There was no way parents like Grandpa and Broschl could resist the temptation of this ointment.

If this medicine is successfully completed, there is only one thing to worry about.

The question is grandfather's knee is sick left or right.

Glossaries

[1]. So in Korea there is an ointment, which if here is called Tiger Balm. I think the benefits of kayaking above.
