The Lord of Reincarnation - 259. Chapter 258 Conversation (for subscription)
On the dark and soft sky, many stars shone like diamonds.
Roland Manor.
The dinner was held in the hall.
The long dining table, the neat white tablecloths, the huge glass crystal lamp hanging overhead, and the candles on the silver candlesticks are blooming with a soft light.
The restaurant is very quiet, only the sound of the knife and fork touching the bottom of the plate occasionally sounded.
Fangxian forks a small piece of steak meat, dips it in the sauce, and puts it in the mouth. The sweet and mellow taste of the beef overflows, blending with the flavor of the sauce and forming a strong stimulus to the taste buds.
He then picked up the glass and toasted: “In order to meet again after a long time!”
Opposite him, sat a middle-aged gentleman, it was Baron André Roland, who wore a gorgeous dress and held up a tall glass with restraint: “Welcome home!”
The baroness beside her smiled at the heir Pete.
Everything seems to be exceptionally harmonious and complete.
But Fang Xian found that the jewelry on the Baroness was a bit uncoordinated, and the most beloved ruby necklace in his memory had long since disappeared.
The tableware on the table top is not pure silver, but the latest mass-produced alloy texture of the Kingdom Factory. Many middle-class families like to buy a set to imitate aristocratic banquets, but they are to be ridiculed in the upper class.
In addition, although the maids who were standing there did their duties, they occasionally showed a perfunctory look when the master was not paying attention, and felt strange to the family.
Obviously, most of them are only temporarily borrowed maids.
“So… what happened in the school when you came back this time?”
Baron Andrey put down his knife and fork and asked in a deep voice.
“good……”
Fang Xian spread his hands: “It’s just that something happened recently, and I want to come back…”
In memory, Daniel was very grieved because the family had cut off living expenses.
If it hadn’t been for the six-year tuition when he first entered school, he might have dropped out of school early.
However, after seeing the actual situation of the family, Fang Xian felt that the other party was doing his best to maintain the current decentness, and there was really no way to fund the study of a mysterious person as before.
Baron Andre looked at the maids around him, and tore off the napkin from his neck: “Come to the study with me, we need a conversation between men, Pete, stay with your mother.”
Fang Xian cast an apologetic look at the two and stood up and followed the baron.
Walking through the empty and monotonous corridor, the baron opened the study door and closed it tightly.
The study room has a large space, and rows of bookshelves are full of various books, exuding a unique fragrance.
The baron did it himself and lit a kerosene lamp to diffuse the bright light. He sat behind the desk and looked at the son: “Didn’t you say that he will never come back? Is it because the money is not enough?”
Fang Xian flipped through his memory. Well, since he couldn’t be satisfied with writing letters again and again, Daniel had a temper at home, and even said this.
His silence seemed to plunge the Baron into a certain kind of contemplation, before he said a moment later: “How much does it need?”
Fang Xian estimated that the other party was already figuring out which property to sell.
“I don’t need…” He shook his head and said softly, “Is the family’s financial situation so bad? Mother’s jewelry, antiques and oil paintings in the corridor…”
Andre’s lips moved, as if he wanted to refute, but finally he collapsed silently, holding his head in his hands: “You know? That damn Ferdinand R. Columbus, damn bank, damn creditor… They are all vampires!”
‘Um? ‘
Fang Xian’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Didn’t the Roland family know that Ferdinand R. Columbus’s adventure was so successful that the original certificate of ownership of a piece of paper has become an endless stream of gold mines?
Also, if you know this news, even if you just take it to the bank for mortgage loans, or use it as a guarantee to borrow money from other nobles, the Roland family’s economic situation will be greatly improved.
He thought for a while and decided to showdown: “Let’s talk frankly and frankly… First of all, tell me whether our family inherits the blood of gods, or is a hidden branch of a great nobleman in ancient times, or keeps any big secret?”
“Do you… have you read too many novels and dramas that are popular in the city?” Baron André stared at his son with a caring look at the fool.
“Okay…I’m being passionate.” Fang Xian shrugged his shoulders and put his hands in his pants pockets: “So… we don’t have any secrets, why did we choose to support Ferdinand River Columbus in the first place?”
“I have no idea……”
A bitter expression appeared on Andre’s face: “That navigator must be a [Ecstasy]. He manipulated me… What secret method did he use to deceive the justice…”
This world has mysterious powers. When notarizing, the official will definitely consider similar situations.
For such a large investment, there must be dedicated personnel to observe the minds of both parties, confirm that they are not affected, and have unique power to isolate interference.
At least the signing of the agreement was indeed the will of the Baron himself.
Fang Xian rolled his eyes and said, “According to my mystical knowledge, if there is such a strong man who can bypass the notary and confuse you, I would not like the initial investment… Okay, I have a showdown. I’m in school. There was trouble there. Someone was eyeing that share certificate… You… didn’t sell it, right?”
Andre’s expression was a little dazed, and a surprise suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes: “You mean… that great navigator’s expedition was successful? Haha… I knew that there was nothing wrong with my original decision.”
‘Are you a goldfish with only a few seconds of memory? ‘Fang Xian rolled his eyes:’Who was still cursing that navigator before? ‘
“This is not the point, the point is…someone is eyeing us and blocking me is only part of the plan. Their real purpose is to bankrupt the Roland family, and finally get the share certificate at a shabby price!”
This kind of stock is not bearer, even if it is stolen, it must go to the notary office and let Andre transfer it as the owner of the house.
“Damn… I’ll just say… Our family has had more troubles than the past two years combined… and there are people who are willing to buy out my debt…”
Andre reacted and suddenly became extremely angry: “This is a shameful fraud! Theft!”
Fang Xian nodded in sympathy.
If the other party is willing to come to the door, explain the matter clearly, and propose an acquisition plan, at most they are prepared to let them sell the gold at the price of silver. Although it is considered a good advantage, the Roland family can not only recover the previous investment, but also make a fortune. .
But now, they are not prepared to do this at all, let them sell the gold at the price of a stone.
It can only be said that the human heart is greedy. If you can eat a whole fish, you will not only eat half of it.
