"Why are all the people gone? Is the meeting over?"

Jung rubbed his eyes with his hands, and said to Jonas in a clear voice, not pretentious at all to hide the state in which he had just pretended to be asleep, as if he was not afraid that Jonas would notice that Jung was not sleeping, and took his hand away, Jung looked at Jonas like that, and did not explain his intention to do so. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Do you have to wait for you to wake up if you don't leave, Father, we can never wait for someone who pretends to be asleep to wake up by himself, can we?" Looking at Jung's non-caring appearance, Jonas couldn't help but sarcastically, he didn't want to think about what he was doing this for, wasn't it to be able to get a little more profit and go home for the New Year, no, was it Christmas, why did it seem like it wasn't his business?

"Hahaha, I'm so tired these days, haha, I'm so tired. ”

Jung didn't take it seriously in the face of his children's ridicule, as a 30-year-old middle-aged man, the abuse and ridicule he received had already been a basket, and he didn't care about that, but in the face of Jonas's incomprehension of his behavior, Jung felt that he still had to explain, otherwise, there would be a rift in the relationship between father and son, which was not conducive to family unity.

"Ahem, that, Jonas, you know, I don't speak, it doesn't mean I don't want to help you, you see, isn't Bill doing things for you, isn't my army under your control, did I say that they don't listen to your orders? No, I did it, and there was pain, you know. ”

Glancing at the back of Jonas's head, Jung continued:

"Jonas, do you think it's a simple thing for a family to exist in the world for thousands of years and still prosper?

No, this is a difficult thing, even the family of the Earl of Il, the Al-Ramich family, only has a short history of hundreds of years, it can be said that in this land of Susa, the family that can have a history beyond our family almost does not exist, of course, if you want to find those poor families who have lost their land, there may still be some, but there is no aristocratic family like us who are still princes.

Why? Because the land is so fertile, my Jonas, do you know what that means to the surrounding lords?"

Jonas's head had turned to Jung at this time, but before he could speak, Jung continued:

It means that in this land, there are countless wars breaking out, sometimes dozens a year, sometimes hundreds, countless soldiers are thrown into this never-ending hell, tortured, and finally wailed to death, countless noble families are also in this deceit, heirs are cut off, the territory is confiscated, and it becomes the fief of other nobles.

The cycle goes on and on, in such days, our family, only our family, and only our family, survived for thousands of years, not only was not affected by the war, but also thrived to the current field, what do you think it depends on?

We don't even have an outlet to the sea, and we are surrounded by plains, which also means that our family has always been surrounded on all sides by no natural hazards, although this terrain has brought our family abundant fertile land for farming, but it is not the territory of the enemy in all directions, and it is really not superior.

Is it the wisdom of the previous lords? No, the strength of a generation of lords, for future generations, at most, let their heirs maintain an advantage with the surrounding areas within two or three generations, which must ensure that there is no interference from external forces, otherwise the birth of a generation of excellent lords will often not bring prosperity and stability, but will bring crisis and turmoil.

After all, no one wants to have a mission in their territory that can be their opponent and has a certain threat, in this case, the ancestral grace is only two or three generations, and our family inheritance has come to my hands, it is already the 47th Viscount Luger, and you, the 48th generation, wisdom is not much importance in our family's survival rules. “

"Father, what do you want to say?" Jonas couldn't help asking, for Jung's question, Jonas was actually very curious, in his time and space, because of historical reasons, he really didn't see any thousand-year-old families in China, most of them were power families that had been passed down for decades and passed on for less than two or three generations, and the speed of decline was much faster than the speed of rise, so he was really interested in the reason why the Luger family he was born could exist for thousands of years.

"What I want to say is that the reason why our family has been able to stand here for thousands of years, regardless of the wind and rain, is because the successive lords of the Luger family have abandoned wisdom and talent to control the territory and the continuation of the family, and believe in the most basic principle that allows our family to continue. “

"What's that? Father. Jonas asked.

"For all things, we are not the first executors, nor are we the first initiators, strong armies enter the territory, we are not the first rebels, we are not the first to surrender, we are not the first to use iron in the cultivated land, we are not the first to be the first opponents, we are not the prohibitors when Christianity spreads in the land, we are not the prohibitives, nor are we the promoters, and now we have attained military merits sufficient to become counts, and the same is true.

Don't be an inviter, don't be a pusher, do you understand what I mean?"

Looking at Jonas eager to know, Jung's heart nodded, as a father, Jonas as the 48th Viscount of Ruger after his death, Jung has been looking for an opportunity to tell him a little life experience, so that he can continue to drive the thousand-year-old repair ship of the Ruger family and not sink it, so now Jonas can show interest, which is naturally quite relieved for Jung.

In particular, Jonas's style of acting is often too exaggerated, and the new system is easy to make the surrounding lords notice Jonas as a figure early, which is really unfavorable for the future development of his family, which is one of the reasons why Jung chose this time to say these words.

"You mean, you have to keep a low profile?" After hearing this, Jonas immediately understood what Jung meant, in other words, it is to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, stab a knife in the back, and let others try not to notice his existence, this approach, Jonas still agrees with it.

Neither to be the first person to eat crabs, nor to be a person who goes against the tide, this is indeed the only way for a family to be able to establish a thousand years in the world, after all, as the old saying goes, don't pretend to be forced, pretend to be forced to be struck by lightning, this kind of stuffy hair and fortune practice is indeed unique.

It's just that Jonas doesn't like it.

"Well, that's a good summary, that's why I'm pretending not to know, Jonas, remember, as an ordinary lord, never take your colleagues for fools, and even look down on them all the time, only in this way can we ensure that our family will continue to last. ”

Jung was a little surprised to hear Jonas understand the meaning of his speech so quickly, his own children knew (at least Jung thought so), since Jonas became the lord of Birlo, it can be said that the whole of Piedmont has become like a bright star in the darkness, and countless news reaches Jung's ears every day.

So in Jung's view, Jonas is a person who is complacent about his achievements and thinks that others are stupid like pigs and dogs, but he didn't expect that Jonas could understand his own ideas so easily, which Jung didn't expect.

However, Jung's words were not finished, and after admitting his considerations, Jung went on to talk about the reasons why he did not stand up.

"In addition, the thousand-year-old family inheritance has also given our family an intricate network of kinship, you know, just like your title of Viscount Billo, that's how it came about, as nobles, our men can only be combined with noble women, and our girls can only marry other nobles to become noblewomen.

In the past thousand years, it is conceivable that among the nobles in the entire Susa region, there are only a few who are not related to our family, but most of them are related by blood, which is why I can't stand on your side and support you, you know?"

"You mean, Ferret and Muller are related to us?!"

Jung's hints, of course Jonas understands, especially after he broke it, Jung also nodded, and it was even more confirmed, which is really shocking, but although they are relatives, they have already been separated by I don't know how many generations, and he didn't show up just because of the situation, otherwise Jung should have stopped it when he gave the order just now.

However, for his family's network of relatives, Jung's words aroused Jonas's curiosity, this world is dominated by nobility and religion, power is king, blood ties are linked, here, 'my dad is ***' is not a shameful thing, on the contrary, to have a long-standing form, in today's era, it can definitely be called honorable.

And how many nobles a family can marry is a direct reflection of a family's diplomatic relations and strength, according to what Jung just said, Jonas thought a little bit about it, and felt that his family was really a little unfathomable.

This really made Jonas a little concerned....

Jung has already said what he should have said, looking at the thoughtful Jonas on the side, he didn't say anything more, just said goodbye to Jonas, left the living room, and walked to his room, for those things that deceive me, although Jung can be called skilled, but until the necessary moment, he is still not willing to be too involved, now that Jonas is in front of him, Jung naturally does not need to worry too much, for Jonas, Jung has full confidence.

He just needs to let Jonas pay attention to proportion, after all, the arrival of these two people represents the interests of some nobles, and also represents the meaning of some Earl of Il, which is obviously more concerned about the power behind them than the simple two viscounts.

With Jung's departure, Jonas also recovered from his contemplation after a long time, seeing that the seat where Jung was sitting was empty at the moment, Jonas couldn't help laughing, jumped out of the seat he was sitting on and walked to the back hall, ready to take the next action.

Two streets away from the Palace of St. George's, in the Crimson Palace, the dinner of Ferré and Müller had just ended, and the merchants who supported them left the palace in their own carriages.

So as soon as they returned to Genaya, they re-gathered a considerable amount of wealth, which allowed them to quickly find the house where they would live, and at the same time, with the money recovered, they wantonly wooed the ruffians in Genaya City who were eager for money and were not afraid of death, and it was also the motivation of these people that caused the current chaos in Genaya.

Ferré and Müller sent each of the departing merchants with friendly smiles, and it was not until the dim light of the last carriage that they went back into the house, put away the false smile on their faces, ordered a pot of tea, and talked about the next course of events as they drank it.

As aristocrats, none of them were stupid, and so were Ferre and Mill, and if they were not a little sure, how could they have co-opted these merchants with such fanfare?

However, Ferre and Muller had no idea that although they had placed countless soldiers and guards around them to protect their safety, they had no idea that Jonas was not an Assassin at all.

Rather, it is a group of spies of unknown numbers.

They were dressed as vendors, security forces, and neighbors, and their target was not Ferre and Muller, but every carriage that left the Crimson Palace, and all they had to do was to read the marks of each family on the carriage, and then record it and transmit it to their leader.

These emblems will be placed on Jonas's desk after an hour through a special channel, and the decision will be made without reservation, which is why Jonas can make such a decision.

Everything is under Jonas's control, and new changes are taking place.
