I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 41 Sitting on a Mountain of Gold (Part 34)

To sum up, there are only two types of rewards that the nobles give to non-noble groups.

The first reward is marriage.

It is only suitable for unmarried people, has low cost, and has a good and stable effect in winning people's hearts.

18 years old is the legal marriage age in the hive city - Epimet. 20 to 30 years old is the peak period for family marriages. Those who are over 30 and still unmarried will be subject to rumors.

People under 18 can discuss marriage, but it is limited to engagement.

Isabel recommended three noble girls from the Kram family to Li Nuo, promising that the two could start dating after the age of 18 and get married before the age of 20, and Li Nuo would receive a generous dowry from the girls.

It should be noted here that when he officially joined the collection department, Robnos also made a similar promise.

In his promise, the girl from the Klam family who would marry the worker was the descendant of retainers and servants, not aristocratic girl with Klam family blood.

Whether or not one has noble bloodline is the key.

Marrying a descendant of the nobility means that one has one foot in the aristocratic class. As long as one manages one's connections and resources carefully, there is a very high possibility that one's offspring will enjoy the family title as soon as they are born.

There is a saying circulating in Zhongshangchao:

To become a noble, it takes at least three generations of hard work.

Li Nuo now meets the basic conditions to become the first generation, which is to make significant contributions to a family as a commoner.

After careful consideration, he declined the offer of marriage as a reward.

The reason was that he had found a goal to strive for - to serve the benevolent and noble Lord Vorges.

Even if you wear it a thousand times, you will never wear it.

Regardless of whether Lord Fugas can hear these words or not, it is right to say them.

Delton nodded slightly with approval in his eyes, but did not intervene in the conversation.

Isabel did not force it, and instead proposed a second reward plan - monetary reward.

The currency of the Lower Nest is ration cards, the currency of the Middle and Upper Nests is credit points, and the currency between the nobles is the Throne Coin issued by Holy Terra.

The bounty for the Kram family is 10 throne coins.

The money will be deposited in the Golden Rose Bank and the account needs to be registered under Li Nuo's name.

According to the exchange rate at the bank counter, 10 throne coins can be converted into 1 million credit points, or 10 billion ration cards.

As soon as Isabel opened her mouth, Li Nuo was stunned by such a large sum of money.

He had no idea what 1 million credit points could buy, but he was well aware of the horror of 10 billion ration cards.

Not long ago, he was still worried about food and drink, but now he owns a mountain of gold!
This sudden feeling of happiness is no less than winning the lottery jackpot.

"Madam, are there any restrictions on the use of this money?" Li Nuo asked, forcing himself to calm down.

Isabel shook her head.

"The Kram family will not place any restrictions on this money. You only need to open an account at the Golden Rose Bank to receive the money. However, the Governor seems to have other plans for you. You may not be able to go to the Upper Nest to open an account in the short term."

Delton nodded and said:

"Yes, Li Nuo. We will stay in the Lower Nest until we catch the Father. After completing the mission, you will obtain the status of a resident of the Upper Nest. Only then can you go to the Upper Nest with me, report to Lord Fuges, and open an account at the Golden Rose Bank."

"Oh, that's it." Li Nuo asked thoughtfully:

"May I ask if the Kram family can advance a small portion of the bounty?"

Isabel expected Li Nuo to say this and responded with a smile:
"No problem. You can always ask me for an advance on your bounty. Since you can't leave the Lower Nest for the time being, I'll pay you with a ration card or premium-grade Crum cigarettes."

Li Nuo looked at Delton, who nodded slightly at him. It seemed that 10 throne coins were quite reasonable.

"Ma'am, the bounty plan sounds good. I'll choose this plan."

With money, you can buy equipment, consumables and venues to study microorganisms. Why not do it?

"Wait a moment, I'll print the contract."

Isabel stood up and started working beside the Thinker.

Li Nuo observed the Thinker and was secretly shocked. This thing that acts as a computer was actually made by humans.

A human brain soaked in yellow-green liquid is suspended above the screen, connected to components such as the keyboard, screen, and speakers through pipes.

When the high-speed calculation was in progress, the yellow-green liquid bubbled like boiling water. The liquid rolled violently for more than ten seconds, and Isabel came over with the contract.

A contract is used to protect the rights and reputation of both parties.

After signing, neither party can regret the contents of the contract.

This not only prevented the Kram family from recovering the reward, but also prevented Li Nuo from asking for an exorbitant amount of money and demanding an additional bounty.

After signing, Isabel sent the contract to the family headquarters through the capsule tube.

The three of them waited for a while at the scene, and the capsule returned to the office.

The contract also had the owner's personal signature.

With this, the contract was officially declared effective, and Li Nuo could come at any time to advance part of the bonus.

Delton gave a suggestion.

Li Nuo used the data pad to scan the contract, obtained the electronic version of the contract, and stored the physical copy of the contract in the Governor's agent's base.

When you ask Isabel to advance your bounty in the future, you only need to bring the data pad and the electronic contract. You do not need to bring the physical contract to avoid damage to it.

This suggestion was very pertinent and Li Nuo did exactly as he was told.

In addition, Delton disguised Lino's identity.

Currently, the only people who know that Lino is still alive are Delton, Isabel and Amy.

Everyone else thought that Li Nuo had died twenty-five days ago, or had completely forgotten about him.

Delton also registered a new Lower Nest resident identity for Li Nuo.

From then on, Li Nuo was seen by outsiders as an adult named Kang Wen.

Even if law enforcement officers used a scanner to retrieve his identity data, they would only find information about "Kang Wen".

After leaving the cigarette factory building with Delton, Li Nuo drove to Xiachao College and stopped in front of a mansion with walls and gardens.

"This is where Amy and I live, and it's also where the special agent team is based."

The two got out of the car, and Delton pointed to the access control device on the door of the mansion:
"The datapad in your hand can open this door. Try it."

Li Nuo walked forward and a button to open the door popped up on the data pad.

After pressing the button, a red beam shot out from the access control system and swept across Li Nuo's body, and the door of the mansion opened.

"The area above ground is where Amy and I live, and the area below ground is for the special agent team. The underground entrance is here."

After entering the front yard, Delton turned left into the vine corridor, stretched out his right hand next to the third pillar, and lifted a curtain with an optical camouflage effect.

The pixel image on the surface of the curtain matches the surrounding environment.

When it was lifted up, a passage extending diagonally downward appeared before our eyes.

At the end of the passage is a gate made entirely of metal. There is no keyhole or door handle, only a double-hole scanner similar to a telescope.

"When I genetically modified you, I also recorded your iris information. It can be used to open this door."

Li Nuo put his eyes in front of the double-aperture scanner.

Beep, beep, the scan is complete and the gate opens.

The pneumatic device moved the heavy door panel away, and a figure stood in the rock passage behind the door.

When the man saw Delton, he raised his hands and saluted like a Sky Eagle. His long legs were stretched straight and his heels pressed together, making a crisp sound.

"Sir."

Li Nuo's eyes fell on the man's feet.

The other person was wearing a pair of laceless high-heeled leather boots, dark black in color, about size 38, which were the same pair that he had seen days ago when he was about to fall into a coma.

Delton stepped forward and held Li Nuo's shoulder:

"It seems that you remember who she is. Yes, she was the one who fired the tranquilizer dart, and she was also the one who used the bullet to deflect your dagger, preventing Robnos from being hit directly by you.

"Her name is Mona. Before joining the Governor's Guard, she was a sniper in the Planetary Defense Force's Killing Team and also a legal psyker."
