Chapter 183: Noah’s new estate
A thousand golden coins represented substantial wealth even by his current standards, equivalent to roughly $100,000 in Earth currency.

"Furthermore," Elara added with building excitement, "my father also told me to let you know that the viscount’s estate has been completely cleared and prepared for your use. You can move in whenever you want."
Noble estate.
Her amber eyes sparkled with curious anticipation as she made her next suggestion. "In fact, would you like to check it out now? I could show you around the grounds personally."
Noah considered the invitation carefully. His shop was completely sold out of inventory, the opportunity to inspect his new noble property with the princess didn’t seem to bad.
Perfect timing. Nothing left to sell, and I should probably see what I actually own. Perhapse I could sell it later.
"That sounds like an excellent idea," he replied with growing interest. "I should probably familiarise myself with the property before making any decisions about actually living there."
Princess Elara’s smile widened with obvious pleasure at his acceptance. "Wonderful! It’s only about ten minutes from here. The estate is quite impressive—The viscount spared no expense when he built it with his ill-got gains."
Noah turned toward Lola, who had been observing their conversation with amused interest from behind the counter.
"You can close the shop whilst I’m gone, there is no need for you to work, it’s not your shift time," he said.
