Yesterday, Tristan had reaped quite an amount of benefits from the war against the barbarians. After a thorough calculation, he earned himself a total of 163 gold coins, as well as several luxury goods from the plundering he did to the barbarian camp.
The coins would be going straight to his pocket, as for the luxury goods and other things from the plunder, Tristan planned to ask Hererra to sell them later for more coins. After all, he had no use for such things at the moment, nor had such desire for them.
In addition, yesterday's gain was such a successful outcome, and as a result, Tristan was currently enjoying the taste of his victory, slowly savoring it.
But again, he had no such plan as sharing any of those coins to the town. The task was to be Caerleon's mayor for three months and he couldn't know what that bastard king plan for him afterward. It's no time to be sharing these coins with anyone.
