Chapter 408 Weakness

It turns out that Kraft came to collect debts and cause trouble in order to obtain a vase inherited from the Oseidon family.

Two hundred years ago, before the decline of the Oseidon family, there was a patriarch who liked to collect all kinds of precious vases. After his death, hundreds of vase collections were passed down to the family. When the Oseidon family began to decline,

At that time, these precious vases became one of the sources of income for the Oseidon family. Over the past hundred years, hundreds of vases have been sold and pawned, and only a few are left.

It is well known in Far City that the Oseidon family would often sell some of their ancestral items for money. Therefore, almost all businessmen would join forces to purchase the items sold by the Oseidon family at low prices.

As for the people of the Oseidon family, they have done so many things to support themselves by selling their ancestral things that they have long lost any sense of shame. Over the past hundred years, almost every clan leader and clan member has done this countless times. Maybe they will

I feel sad, but under the pressure of life, I have to do these things that are disrespectful to my ancestors again and again.

After hundreds of years of decline, the ancestral belongings of the Oseidon family have almost dried up. Except for the ancestral home and a nearby field, all other properties and fields have long since been transferred to others. And there are not many valuable things left in the ancestral home. I believe that

Within a year or two, all that was left of this huge manor was an empty frame. In fact, the people in the Oseidon family are all kind-hearted people.

Generations, over the past hundred years, there have been almost no incompetent and wasteful people. They are all thrifty and thrifty people. Therefore, although these people are also unfilial descendants who sell their ancestral property. But in comparison, they can control the quantity they sell.

All was lost in one fell swoop. Otherwise, no matter how big the Oseidon family is, no matter how many ancestral items they have, it would be impossible for them to remain unsold for hundreds of years.

When she heard that Kraft wanted the vase from her family, Fairlie's face did not show greater anger, but more sadness. She stood stunned and stood there. She seemed to want to cry, but she forced herself to hold back.

, to prevent tears from falling from the moist eyes.

Gradually, Fairly could feel a strong sense of fatigue and powerlessness.

"Uncle Yasumoto, please go get a vase." After a moment, Fairly slowly turned her head and said.

"Miss." Butler Aberdeen wanted to say something more, but was quickly interrupted by Fairy shaking her head. Then, Butler Aberdeen turned around and walked into the door.

For a moment, Fairly had the thought of giving up on herself. Since she was born, her family has been in decline for a long time. When she was young, with her father at the front, she could still live freely. But as she grew older.

As her father's health deteriorated and he became more and more careless, she had to stand up and do something for the family. Unexpectedly, the family's situation did not allow her to do anything at all, and she still had to continue to take out the things inherited from her ancestors.

Come and sell it to maintain the family's daily life.

Originally, Fairlie asked Kraft to come back in a few days, intending to sell a vase to make money, but now Kraft directly asked for a vase, and she suddenly didn't want to sell the vase, and wanted to give the vase directly to Kraft.

Just send Kraft away.

In this way, everyone stood at the door waiting for Butler Aberdeen to get the vase. Fairy looked sad and seemed exhausted, unable to even stand. Leader Sharpe and other guards looked angry, but

, they have experienced these things many times, and they will not do anything else except anger.

In contrast, Kraft on the other side was very proud. He was very happy to be able to get a vase for his family. As for offending the Oseidon family for this, he didn't care at all. Unlike most people in Fal City,

Like everyone else, he didn't think it was a big deal to offend the Oseidon family.

After a while, Butler Yasumoto came out with a small vase in his arms. The vase was not big, more than a foot high, and the style was very ordinary. However, the vase was also carved with very exquisite and detailed patterns, and the whole vase exuded a simple atmosphere.

People can feel the extraordinary value of the vase as soon as they see it.

Butler Yasumoto walked up to Fairlie, did not speak, and did not give the vase to Fairlie. Instead, he looked at Fairlie eagerly, looking very reluctant.

Fairly looked at the vase for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "Uncle Yasumoto, give him the vase."

Before Butler Aberdeen could make any move, Kraft hurried forward and reached out to grab the vase from Butler Aberdeen's arms.

"Wait a minute." Butler Anben took a step back and hugged the vase tighter. "This vase is worth at least a thousand gold coins. I can give it to you, but you have to pay us back 500 gold coins."

"Haha..." Kraft laughed and said, "What a joke, how can you sell the things of your Oseidon family for a thousand gold coins? Now I bought it for 500 gold coins, which is already a very high price.

"

Indeed, the deeds of the Oseidon family being reduced to selling ancestral items are already notorious in the city of Farr. No matter who they are, they want to take advantage of the situation and lower the price to make a profit from the Oseidon family. And the Oseidon family, who is in a difficult situation, in order to

To maintain daily living expenses, I have to endure such exploitation.

Afterwards, Butler Yasumoto still refused to give it, and Kraft, who had already tried to grab it, couldn't get it. Kraft kept shouting: "Give it to me quickly. If you don't give it to me, I will increase the price."

After a while, Fairy couldn't stand it anymore, or she couldn't hold on any longer. She said softly: "Uncle Yasumoto, give her the vase." There was strong tiredness in Fairy's words.

I feel like an old man who is tired of life.

"Here you go!" Steward Yasumoto thrust the vase into Kraft's hand and roared viciously. At this moment, if he had the ability, he might give Kraft a sword and kill him with a heavy sigh.

Kraft didn't care at all about Butler Aberdeen's eyes. He took the vase with a smile, held it close to his eyes and looked at it carefully, and then a very proud smile appeared on his face.

"Bring over the IOU!" Butler Yasumoto yelled again, and immediately snatched the IOU from the other party, tore it into pieces with both hands, threw it to the ground with all his strength, and stepped on it a few times without regret.

"Let's go!" Seeing Butler Yasumoto's behavior, Kraft laughed loudly, called out to his swordsmen, and left with satisfaction. In the blink of an eye, Fairlie and everyone were left standing there filled with sorrow and hatred, as well as the people watching the excitement.

Ryan and Katisha.

Ruian saw the whole process in his eyes and did not step forward to interfere or come to the rescue. He allowed the incident to develop. In fact, it would be very simple for Ruian to help, whether it was to pay off the debt with gold coins or use force to drive away the enemy.

It was a piece of cake for Ruian to take away Kraft and others. But Ruian had no intention of taking action. The purpose was naturally to see clearly the current situation of the Oseidon family.

Ruian was a little disappointed. Fairlie used the vase to pay off the debt. Ruian didn't think there was a problem. It was only natural to pay back the debt. What made Ruian disappointed was that the attitude of Fairlie and others was too weak. Facing an ordinary person

Being humiliated and a person of low status, Fairley and others were indifferent. Not only did they not teach the other party a lesson, but they also endured it silently without taking any action.

Weakness in strength and the decline of the family are not serious problems, but the weakness in the heart is the fatal wound. Fairly is a young girl, she is weaker, and no one can blame her. Butler Yasumoto and Guard Sharp are weak because of their status.

The differences are understandable. However, from the behavior of these people, we can infer that their patriarch is also a weak person. Otherwise, a patriarch with a strong heart and tough performance will never allow the family members to be so weak.

of.

For a moment, Ruian felt sad for Kemp Oseidon.

After Kraft and others left, Fairley and others turned their attention to Ryan and Ketisha, looking at them with confusion, as if they didn't know how to respond.

After a while, Ryan adjusted his mood and led Ketisha forward. Although he was full of disappointment in the Oseidon family at this moment, he still had to face it and help the other party when necessary.

"Sir, what's the matter with you?" Butler Yasumoto spoke. Obviously, Sharp is a man of few words, and Fairlie is a young lady in the family, so he can only ask questions.

"I want to meet the patriarch of your noble family." The disappointment in Ruian's heart made his tone a bit direct and slightly rude.

Sure enough, Fairlie and others were stunned for a moment, thinking that Ryan was a person with evil intentions. They kept looking at Ryan and Katisha, but except for the colder tone of Ryan's words, they didn't feel any hostility between the two.

.

"Excuse me, what business do you have with my father?" Fairly asked suddenly, her tone full of vigilance.

Ryan immediately felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere. He adjusted his mood again and said in a softer tone: "Miss Fairley, hello, we are from the Odoli Empire. We were entrusted by someone to bring a message to the head of the noble family on the way.

.”

Immediately, Fairlie was a little surprised. She thought for a moment and suddenly said: "I'm sorry, my father is not feeling well and it is inconvenient to see guests. Can you please tell me your message and let me pass it on to my father?"

Judging from the situation, Fairlie was still a little wary of Ryan and seemed not to want Ryan to enter the manor.

Ryan was also stunned. Compared to her previous weakness when Kraft came to collect debts, Fairlie was not so weak at the moment. However, Ryan did not want to tell the other party the message now, because looking at Fairlie's current posture, it seemed that

Once Ruian told the message, he wanted Ruian to leave. However, Ruian could not leave easily. His purpose was to stay in the Oseidon family's manor. Bringing the message was just an opportunity for Ruian to contact the Oseidon family.

Ryan thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I think it would be better for me to tell your father personally, because this message is about your family's Frank Oseidon."

Immediately, Fairly's body shook like an electric shock. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
