"If you have money, you can even command ghosts."

This is an extremely common and universally accepted piece of knowledge, so much so that similar sayings exist wherever you go in the world.

In America, if you spend an immense amount of money, a lawyer might even create a new mental illness called 'rich person's syndrome' to help get you off the hook with a judge.

And I, too, am doing something that would normally be impossible using money and power.

"Mayor Guillaume, I was hoping you could grant me citizenship in the Kingdom of Lyon. Can you do that?"

Upon hearing my words, Mayor Guillaume responded as if he were about to wag his tail.

"Normally, it would be impossible, but since it's between you and me, Lord Rothschild, I’ll personally make an exception. Please wait a moment."

Medieval citizenship can be broadly divided into three types: serfs, citizens who can live in cities, and nobles.

Among these, becoming a noble is almost impossible for someone like me, a foreigner, no matter how much money I pour into it, and gaining serf status is also unexpectedly difficult.

To become a noble, you need to bribe someone of higher rank, such as a baron or above.@@novelbin@@

As for becoming a serf, you need to have your name added to the baptismal list at a village church, and for that, I’d have to go all the way to a village, negotiate 'appropriately' with the local priest.
