I Will Avoid the Male Lead and Make a Harem

It had already been auctioned several times, so it appeared to be an order to sell it this time in some way.

“……A huge sale! 250 million runa.”

Wow, that’s really cheap.

‘Let’s see how far it goes down.’

The wealth that was robbed from Marquis Whiterot was about 400 million runa.

Horses, along with carriages and weapons were all made of steel that can be melted down and sold for 400 million won.

I demanded recognition of my hard work in case of success, and Cedric happily handed over all the wealth.

First and foremost, he was uninterested in the black money he stole from the Marquis.

‘Right now, I have about 30 million runa in cash.’

If the item is sold at the Okeii auction, a 10% down payment is required.

And you must pay the balance within a week in order to receive the full transfer of the property.

“…100 and 99 million runa!”

Because no one was interested in the mine, the price gradually fell.

“100 and 50 million runa! Mines are cheaper than wheels!”

Knowing the true worth of that mine, I wanted to put out my sign at the price as soon as possible, so my hands were wet.

‘They said the lower magic crystals were around 10 million won each.’

Then the highly advanced magic crystal must be very costly.

Because even a priest with weak divine power can use one to save a dying person.

That has to be worth a hundred million runa.

It was worth the cost because it saved the priest’s and the patient’s lives.

‘Thousands of them are piled up in that mine.’

So, how much money is there in there?

‘One billion, ten billion, one hundred billion?’

Ha… I can’t take it anymore.

I eventually wrote a number and pretended to hold up the sign while rolling the magic crystal in my arms.

With hawk eyes, the crying auctioneer spotted my sign and shouted quickly.

“50 million runa!”

Fearing that I would change my mind, the auctioneer counted down ten seconds and auctioned off the mine.

“Succeeded! We have a successful bid for the Movilon mine, customer number 32!”

He seemed overjoyed that he had been able to sell the trouble.

I received a small badge indicating that I was the successful bidder for the 217th property after paying the down payment of 5 million runa.

“So, please come by the office within a week and fill out the contract.”

A sense of pride came over me when I saw the silver badge of the Okeii Bank.

‘All I have to do now is pay the balance.’

I have to cash in 300 and 70 million runa in a week.

My gaze was drawn to the face of someone who could apply for this job.

A man who would not be suspected of anything nefarious.

A man as pure as a white dove!

“What? Wait, what did you just say?”

Franz raised his head from his jalapeno sausages.

“Did you just…… ask me to do money laundering, Miss Selina?”

Franz was eating it so deliciously that I even was getting starving watching him.

“Yes.”

In my confident response, Franz did not hide his absurdity.

“I supposed the priest would handle things neatly without getting caught.”

“Wow, that’s unbelievable. You even asked me to do something like……”

Despite his muttering, Franz was already planning his work, his eyes gleaming.

“First and foremost, melt down the weapons… The northern steel is famous, so Guerril will appreciate it.”

“Who is Guerril?”

“He is the blacksmith whom I close with. He is an easy-going man who likes meat.” Now that I think about it, I am their sausage supplier.

‘It would be courteous to pretend I don’t know.’

“Around 350 million dollars isn’t a lot of money.”

Franz was the temple’s treasurer. He, like any public official, had a lot of side work in addition to his main job.

“You can exchange money when you leave the hidden work to the mercenary corps.”

“Can it be done within a week?”

“That sounds difficult, but…… do you really need the money that quickly?”

“Yes.”

“How much do you need?”

“About 50 million runa?”

“I can get them through a credit loan.”

“Really?”

“Well, if it’s for you, Miss Selina, it’s not difficult. Formal priests are eligible for interest-free credit of up to 100 million won.”

Whoa, as expected.

‘Here or there, being the public servants are the best.’

Franz uttered an unexpected name just as I was admiring it inwardly.

“Because the West Temple is connected to the Okeii Silver Bank, the preparation documents are simple and clear.”

Okeii Silver Bank?

There is the Imperial Bank, the Western Regional Bank, and the Merchant Co-op in the West.

Here, there is a central bank, a regional bank, and even a retail bank. So, why should you use Okeii Bank for a private loan?

‘Well, it’s okay. As long as the money laundering is done safely, it’s fine.’

I’m intrigued by the temple’s complicated relationship with the third-degree financial institutions, but I’ve decided not to delve into it.

Slowly, I sat down next to Franz and stared him down.

“Why are you staring at me like that…… If you have any questions, please ask them.”

His embarrassed lip biting the sausage was very cute. I took a small gift from my arms.

“Here.”

“What exactly is this?”

“The county now has a new chef. This one was made with spices, which is popular in the capital, and it was delicious, so I made a special request for it.”

It was sausage with white pepper.

“I appreciate your willingness to grant me a difficult request.”

Bringing sausages into the temple may not seem like a big deal, but it was.

“I……”

Franz, moved and impressed, looked up at me with big eyes and a sausage in his hand.

“I’ve always hoped for someone like Miss Selina.”

“Someone like me? What type of person am I for you?”

“A devil who will lead me down the path of corruption! With a touch of temptation that I dare not resist!”

“……”

“My savior, who has come to vandalize my sacred life!”

“Ah…… I see.”

Just eat your sausage quietly.
