Thirty years passed, and Jum somehow evaded the nigh-inevitability of a dance on the gallows. In that time he: made three fortunes and lost four of them (not all of them his own); accidentally saved the life of a Duke and lost the life of a Margrave (who, to be fair, had been plotting to overthrow the sector governate, so got off very lightly indeed with a swift hanging); narrowly escaped marriage on three occasions (one of which he bitterly regretted afterwards); jousted with robot knights; retired to run a dragon stud farm (of which he tired within months); spent eight months in penal servitude before he could escape (he'd been taken under a false identity, if they'd known who he was he'd definitely have swung); then conceived of a plan so audacious, so daring, so superlatively scoundreliffic, that he absolutely had to see it through to completion. And to make it happen, he'd need a crew.
