Chapter 226: A Long-Lasting Crooked Path
"It's a dispensable city, and now it's taxed according to the rank of a town, and there's no need to manage it...... And since the first generation of our family, it is by marrying a girl to get the right to manage the city, and then, marrying a girl has become a tradition, so ....... ”
Lin Feng patted Karen's hand on his arm and said, "Eldest sister, I understand, your family's genes are good, and there are more beauties produced, so you can keep your position by selling your daughters to nearby lords, right?" ”
Although Lin Feng's words were rather strange, but they were quite vivid, Karen hugged Lin Feng's arm and laughed, and said: "It's really, but it's not that simple, I'm looking back with you, I'm sure you'll be surprised when you hear it." ”
Lin Feng used to tickle along the way, and Karen didn't say what they did, but the aborigines along the way, but they kept pointing at them, which attracted Lin Feng's attention.
One by one, he pointed at Karen and sighed, shaking his head helplessly, of course, there were also a lot of schadenfreude, and what surprised Lin Feng the most was that someone actually took something and planned to celebrate.
……
After more than 30 minutes, Lin Feng saw Karen's home, Lin Feng could only describe his mood as shocked, and then looked at Karen, gathering what he had seen and heard in the past 1800 years to study, but there was still no answer.
Lin Feng pointed to the wooden two-story building in front of him and said, "Are you sure about this your home?" ”
"Yes! What's wrong? ”
"It seems that the empire in order to prevent the nobility from being mastered (.2.) Raid, so their houses are all made of magical materials! ”
"Yes."
"But why do I feel that this house is just an ordinary house? This wood doesn't have any ** magic fluctuations, huh? Don't talk about the master (.2.) It's attacked, and when I'm level 30, I'll be able to push it! ”
Karen shrugged her shoulders and said: "Let's go back and say, it's true that this house is a kind of goods, to put it bluntly, my family just looks at their faces, they don't care if they defend themselves or not, after all, this poor one is going to die, who will attack them!" Let's go. ”
When Lin Feng and the others walked into the courtyard, they were sure that this was indeed the territory of the nobles, the luxurious carriages, the servants who were busy coming and going were well-dressed, and the courtyard where the house was located was also large, and the sculptures, flowers and plants in it were more luxurious than the Carl family in Cecilia City.
And those servants did not come to greet Karen after seeing her, but reacted the same as the people in the city, as for his way of celebrating, it was simple, that is, he put the things in his hand on the ground and danced to celebrate the festival.
Lin Feng was stunned and was pulled into the house by Karen.
The decoration inside is good, what calligraphy and paintings, antiques, tables and chairs, crystal chandeliers, at a glance, they are richer than ordinary nobles, but in Lin Feng's eyes, these are all fakes, Lin Feng couldn't help but secretly suspect: Karen's family, who sold their daughter for hundreds of years, sold it into such a virtue? And they seem to be corrupt all the time, right? How strange is this?
Lin Feng and they stood in the gate for nearly 5 minutes, and a person who looked like a butler walked over, dressed appropriately, with elegant square steps, and when he saw Karen, he bowed and said, "Karen, you are back!" ”
Karen didn't even look at him, and asked directly, "Is my father here?" Or at home? ”
"Your father is recuperating at home and has not come to the old house."
"Understood, tell them I'm back, I'll wait for them myself." As he spoke, he pulled this Lin Feng and turned to leave.
Lin Feng was confused, this is not Karen's home? So what did he bring himself here for? When Lin Feng was thinking nonsense.
I only listened to Karen and said, "My parents have been kicked out of here since I came out of the house last time, and my parents don't want to live there, if I haven't been sold, they will take care of my parents." ”
"Hmmm! In that case, why don't you pick up your parents and take me somewhere? ”
"I just knew, no way, my parents didn't dare to contact me, they only knew that I was in White Rose, and they didn't know that I was following you, and I wanted to talk to you several times at that time, but ......."
Lin Feng didn't say a word, pulled Karen over, and slapped a few times on his buttocks, of course, it was the same as when he went out, making Karen's face flushed, and said fiercely: "You dead girl, we've known each other for so long, you actually think of me like this?" Am I so unbearable in your heart? ”
Karen posted to Lin Feng and said shyly: "Thank you Lin Feng, but I'm not only worried about you, when I saw your parents for Lina, I knew that it was no problem to take my parents over, but I was also afraid of my family!" ”
"Your family is very powerful?"
"I'll tell you the truth, you can't imagine that in order to marry their daughters well, they held banquets outside, desperately studied how to set up music, and then married the girl and took back the bride price, which was enough for them to continue to study how to have a girl, how to hold a banquet, and how to set up a score...... And so on and so forth. ”
"Just like that, the family will fall, but what! As for the families of the girls who married out, there are also families that are going to be ruined, and then those people send their daughters back or something, so that our people can cultivate them and be regarded as a part of our family, and in this way, our family has endured. ”
Lin Feng also had to admire Karen's family, so he looked at Karen and said, "Beauty, is your family lucky?" ”
"I have to admit this, every generation of girls is enough to marry out to maintain the family's capital, and as soon as I leave, the family will be cut off."
"But what's the matter with that old viscount you're talking about?"
Karen turned her head to look around, and found that there was no one, so she lowered her voice and said: "Xiao ** sound, changing cities is an excuse, they are reluctant, really when they are stupid, they also know what level they are, really give them a small town, they have to calculate this and that every day, and they must not be exhausted to death?" ”
"And you're still there?"
"I don't dare to say it in front of the people in the city, otherwise the family will have to be picked by the people in the city at night, and the people in the city have long hoped that they can be replaced, but every time they marry a girl, they are this excuse, and if the empire wants to change the lord of a city, then the emperor will issue a document."
Damn, I really admire, a family that engages in crooked ways can also make rules, it's really not easy, think about it, it's tiring to manage the city every day, this half-dead city, don't have to take care of it, and they can enjoy themselves every day by selling their daughters, as if the emperor can't do it.
Looking at the appearance of Karen and Janet, the girls in their family should look good, and they study how to put music every day, to be honest, this is the first choice for these nobles to marry, although the family background is poor, but they can't stand the fact that people can put on a good face, and the nobles really pay attention to this.
When the time comes, they are taking the opportunity to change the city's excuse to ask for more money, and the dissatisfaction of the people in the city can also be suppressed, which is really a good way to kill two birds with one stone, but Lin Feng was happy, originally he could only take the opportunity to incite them, but now I can scare them to death, Wahaha.
