Of course, Klein didn't mind Melissa carrying out her usual thrifty style. After all, he himself wasn't a big spender, but he also didn't want his sister to wrong him in order to save money.
Klein never hesitated to spend money for his family. After all, he worked hard to make money, apart from the promotion, not just to let Benson and Melissa live a better life.
"For example, Melissa, you can buy some new clothes to face Backlund with a better appearance." Klein gave an example, his eyes falling on Melissa's winter coat that was made last year.
Sometimes, I feel a little helpless.
Although he has been sending money to his family, Melissa and Benson obviously haven't used the money much. In other words, Klein feels that Benson and Melissa seem to be living more frugally after becoming low-sequence Beyonders.
.
"I just bought this outfit last year, I can definitely keep wearing it." Melissa subconsciously retorted.
"But it doesn't fit that well, does it?" Klein said helplessly. Melissa was just growing up, so the dress she wore didn't fit particularly well when she bought it. It was just cheap, and it's even less suitable now.
.
"There are many places where money can be used. We have to save money to purchase potion formulas and extraordinary materials. We usually practice ritual magic, and the materials consumed by the spells also cost money..." Melissa showed a disapproving expression and began to clasp her fingers.
Make a detailed breakdown of where you usually need to spend money.
Although they have more ways to make money after becoming Extraordinary, generalists and lawyers don't actually have many ways to make money in a short period of time without violating the law.
Although they also have plans for this, for example, Benson has already learned relevant legal knowledge and plans to make money while digesting potions with a lawyer's certificate after going to Backlund.
But compared with the daily consumption of these means of making money, as well as the subsequent potion formula and the gap in the need for extraordinary materials, Melissa felt that it was better to be frugal at ordinary times, and she could save money where it was not necessary to spend money.
And...Melissa looked at Klein, who seemed to be planning to say something, and said, "We can't rely on you to support us, Klein. Family members should help each other and rely on each other, but we can't become a burden to you."
"We are your family, not blood-sucking insects attached to you."
Klein, who was about to say this, I can think of a solution, was suddenly stunned. He looked at Melissa, who had a serious face, and Benson, who seemed to be smiling helplessly, but obviously supported Melissa. He didn't know for a moment.
What to say.
There was just some warmth in his heart, which made Klein's expression change again and again. Finally, he sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, maybe you are right, but I still think you can be better to yourselves."
This time, before Melissa could retort, Klein said: "This is a necessary investment. Backlund is a place that pays great attention to respectability, especially for the middle class and nobles. Since you want to live in Backlund in the future, you should
It’s inevitable to deal with these people.”
Melissa frowned. She was probably thinking about this person who had lived in Tingen since childhood. Apart from what she learned about Backlund from newspapers and magazines, the only thing she knew about Backlund was the time when she visited Klein.
Time, and these various impressions really told her that it was a far more respectable place than Tingen.
"I understand how you don't want to be a burden to me, but you also said that families should help each other and rely on each other..." Klein paused here, looked at Melissa and Benson, and said:
"Actually, I still have some business and connections in Backlund. When I leave Backlund, I will leave these to you. Don't refuse. This is not just me helping you, but also you.
They are helping me, whether it is business or connections, there is always someone to maintain..."
As he spoke, Klein introduced his previous investment in bicycles to the brothers and sisters. This investment was something he was about to leave Backlund and there was no way to take care of it, but it was just right to leave it to Benson and Melissa.
In addition, there are some other connections, those that do not involve dangerous areas, and Klein naturally wants to pass them on to his brother and sister one by one - Klein did not hang out in Backlund for nothing during this time, and he has three religions and nine schools.
I don’t know how many people I know.
These things can help Benson and Melissa gain a foothold on Backlund as quickly as possible. Klein originally planned to wait until after the New Year, but now it's ahead of schedule.
Naturally, Benson and Melissa did not refuse.
First of all, they just didn't want to become the blood-sucking insects that preyed on Klein, but that didn't mean they were really stubborn and aggrieved and refused Klein's help.
Secondly, as Klein said, business and connections need people to maintain. If Klein leaves Backlund for something, naturally they can only take over.
The three siblings just discussed this topic, and in the middle they turned to their future career plans. Melissa naturally had to continue school, while Benson was preparing to become a lawyer as he planned.
Klein, who was not surprised by this, naturally had already inquired about the situation in the relevant field, and even borrowed lawyer Jurgen's contacts to immediately introduce it to Benson in a very professional manner.
As the few people talked, time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
Whether it was Klein, Benson, or Melissa, they all ended the discussion. After putting the meals they had prepared before on the table, the three brothers and sisters also sat down in various positions.
"Okay, it's time for us to welcome the New Year." Benson picked up the beer in his hand and looked at Klein and Melissa who were sitting next to him.
The latter two also picked up the ginger beer in their hands.
"bump--"
The sound of the clinking wine glasses was not obvious, but what was obvious was the unanimous blessings of the three brothers and sisters at this moment:
"Happy New Year!"
…
"Well, after counting, there are eight pieces of black history or fan fiction for Bonova, five pieces of black history or fan fiction for Beibei, and one piece each for Medici and Ourolius."
"In addition, both Medici and Ourolius can ask me to eliminate five pieces of black history, Beibei twice, and Bonova once."
Lin Ruo announced with a smile, ending the card game that lasted all afternoon and half the night.
He glanced around, scanning Bonois who was crying, Bernadette who was smiling helplessly, Medici who didn't seem to be surprised by the result, and his expression was still dazed, but he remained silent.
Ourolius, who became the biggest winner with Hibiki and Medici, immediately continued in a happy mood:
"Loser, please pay the debt within seven days. If you are a winner, I will come to you to cash it in when I recover my memory."
