She had to convince him.
She couldn’t just stare blankly at the opportunity to strike it rich right in front of her.
[1] I had a dream, a pig dream. A golden pig came down and told me? [2] I have a gift of seeing the future. Trust me. [3] In fact, I exercise a lot and can feel the energy of the land.Any answer would be better than saying she had read it in a book.
Atia chose the third one.
“Father, in fact, despite my young age, I have learned various skills. One of them is reading the energy of the land.”
“What?”
“As I mentioned earlier, the Barel area is not good. The energy is stagnant. Even from afar, you can feel the energy of the giant bubble.”
“Hmm….”
“Besides, investing based on the words and rumors of merchants without actually digging the land is not advisable, is it?”
“Hmm.”
“However, you must buy in the Neipete region.”
Atia appealed to Hiedegger with a calm face.
“Once again, I can read the energy of the land. Father, please believe my words.”
The moment she looked at Hiedegger’s face after finishing speaking.
Atia despaired.
‘He doesn’t believe me at all.’
Atia’s shoulders drooped.
It was understandable.
Who would believe such nonsense about land energy, it would sound absurd to anyone, Atia thought.
Even though she had explained earnestly, hoping against hope.
It seemed she was wrong.
There was nothing more she could do.
The choice was solely Casus’s.
She consoled herself, thinking she had done enough.
However, thinking about the royal family eating up the Barel area and venting their anger on the wrong place in the future, she already felt a headache coming on.
‘I don’t know either.’
Atia gave a resigned smile.
Then.
Hiedegger, who had been quietly tapping the desk with his finger, opened his mouth.
“Fine, invest.”
“Huh?”
“I will instruct Casus to invest in Naifit using part of my property.”
His low, weighty voice echoed around the office.
Atia’s mouth dropped open in surprise.
‘Is this really happening?’
Even though it was preposterous to think of Heidegger actually agreeing to such nonsense, it was still baffling.
Whatever the reason, he had agreed to the investment.
Yes, that’s all that mattered.
“Oh yeah! Dad, you’re the best!”
Atia raised her thumb, celebrating jubilantly.
A faint smile crept up on Heidegger’s lips.
His decision to invest was not because of the energy of the land.
Heidegger wasn’t one to be swayed by such unheardof notions.
It just appeared as though Atia wanted to add her own opinion for this investment.
Unlike his curt and uninteresting sons, the lively and exuberant Atia was a breath of fresh air.
Heidegger did not entirely dislike Atia’s cheerful energy.
Being around her seemed to breathe life into him.
Listening to her investment proposal felt like a token of gratitude for injecting life into the stagnant Duke Wellington.
Curiosity piqued, as she seemed to be making promises about the outcome.
“Conveniently, the purchasing rights will be transferred tomorrow.”
Heidegger said, looking at the newspaper.
“Wow, how coincidental! I guess timing is destiny.”
“So it seems.”
“What would have happened if I hadn’t come? Right, Dad?”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
