Chapter 54 Family Pain
"The Meyer family's reputation in business is comparable to that of the Tuli family in politics, and they do everything they can to gain money; the family's origins are also very interesting. The family's founder, Old Meyer, is a personal trafficker, and... the first person he sold was his wife, followed by his eldest daughter and his younger daughter, leaving only two sons to continue his career."
Roger looked at Feifei's eyes when he spoke, with a shadow covering her face and a resentful look in her eyes.
The gold coins were turning between his fingers, and Roger said: "Those three businesses made Old Meyer earn three hundred gold coins, but the fate of the mother and daughter was very miserable. The mother and daughter who were sold to the same pirate leader and committed suicide on the third day of the trip to the sea. Old Meyer was very proud of this because he bought a new woman who could give birth to him with only one gold coin. The remaining two hundred and ninety-nine gold coins became his capital for business; that was probably the beginning of the Meyer family tradition. Old Meyer often boasted about his first pot of gold, and since then almost every generation of Meyer family has regarded the family men as the heirs of the career, while women are goods."
"They have been fed and fed since childhood, and lived a noble life with servants, toys and guards. However, under the needs of family interests, they will be sacrificed without hesitation. Fifty years ago, the capital chain of the Meyer family broke. At that time, the head of the family actually sold more than 200 women in the family. Some of them were sold to nobles as canaries, some were sold to bishops as goddaughters, but half of them were sold to **."
"I heard that during that period, the ***s on the mainland crazily snatched the women from the Meyer family. There were a lot of customers waiting in line outside the **s they snatched."
Seeing that Feifei was already pale, Roger stopped talking, and Ailie, who had finished the meal and stood behind her, also sympathized with her. It was the first time he had heard about the family history of the Meyer family after she had been with her for so long.
The origin of the Meyer family and the fact that he betrayed women fifty years ago was later buried by Meyer's family with a large amount of gold coins, but those secrets are not known. At least Roger can find many books that were burned by the Holy See and banned by the big family.
"In fact, Miss Feifei, your eyes tell me that you hate more than the poor. The group of rich people upstairs are nothing in your eyes. Your 'house dog' Rejace is also half aristocrat, but he lives in front of you without dignity, so he becomes a irritable and look down on the poor more than you. There is no big difference in life in the Meyer family's women. They are usually pampered ladies, and when the family interests need it, they are goods sold."
Feifei's fist was clenched at first, then loosened. When she knew Roger was no longer talking, quietly lowering her head to drink sweet soup, she gritted her teeth and asked, "You are right, it's really a sharp tip."
Then she laughed and stopped talking. She ate a big meal regardless of her ladylike demeanor, wiped her mouth and stood up and said, "Thank you for lunch, Ailly, let's go."
"Miss Feifei",
Roger called her and smiled and said, "When a person is irreplaceable, no one can treat her as goods, or if you have enough rights and wealth, you can dominate your own destiny."
"Although it's not a new argument, it's quite pleasant," Feifei walked out of the restaurant with her skirt in her arms.
Ellie turned his head and gave him a thumbs up
Roger smiled and put on the gold coins again. It seemed that the "punishment" in the next month would be much better. He walked upstairs to pay and went to Swan Lake Hotel to find Dr. Demley. He had fewer elective subjects and there was no class today. What Demley said before really aroused his interest.
When Roger came to the Swan Lake Hotel, she didn't see Lolita. She went out shopping. Demley was worried that she would let Leo go with her alone.
"PhD",
Roger didn't have to look for it, and he could find Demley's room with just ears. Only his room would have jingled sounds from this hotel. If it weren't for the high price he gave, he would have been driven out long ago; but even so, he was arranged in the corner of the hotel.
Demley opened the door, put down the drill bit in his hand and said, "Stupid, is it so leisurely on the first day of school?" He looked at the clock in the room before two o'clock.
"Yes, there are very few classes these days." He put the sauce duck he bought for Demley on the table, opened the bag and the fragrance floated out.
Demley took out the knife and fork without hesitation, and handed him the tableware, saying, "Little devil, are you going to ask me about the new mechanical armor?"
"Haha, the doctor is also good at analysis."
"Hmph," Demley tore off the duck legs and said, "Little kid, we have been dealing with each other for a while, so we still need to analyze this kind of thing? I will know what you want to shit when you stick your butt."
"Ahem...Doctor, we are eating now",
Demley said: "Little devil, if you hadn't been smart enough to threaten me with Oris, I would have told you long ago."
"Oh, Doctor, I shouldn't be smart in front of you."
Roger knew that at this time he should learn a little bit and satisfy his doctor's vanity.
"Little devil, tell me how the viper feels in dressing?" said Demla.
Roger said: "There is no doubt that this is the doctor's best work so far. It is both secretive and has certain defensive functions when worn in the outer garment. The mechanism is even more clever, especially the concept of using steel and glass beads as weapons is the most eye-catching."
"But there are also flaws. First of all, its defense. I have compared it. Compared with heavy armor, its defense seems insufficient. In addition, the number of steel and glass beads needs to be limited, otherwise the load will drag down my physical skills and puppet fingering skills."
Demley nodded: "Little kid, exactly the same as you said, Viper has advantages and disadvantages, but I am sure this is the best mechanical armor on the mainland. According to the existing mechanical armor concept, it is absolutely impossible to create an armor with a comprehensive performance that exceeds Viper's."
He said it very confidently, and Roger believed in his mechanics attainments. It can be said that no matter where he went, Dr. Demley was the authority of mechanics.
Roger asked, "What is the new armor that the doctor said?"
Demley put down the duck leg that had been gnawed in his hand and looked at Roger with a mysterious smile: "A kind of innovation, a change. Completely subverts the existing concept of mechanical armor; little kid, try to imagine the possibility of air flu metal first, otherwise our conversation will be difficult to continue."
"Air Flu Induction Metal...",
"Doctor, are you referring to?"
