At the same time, in another hotel, the three Capuya siblings were also thinking about the future.
Losing their land, home, and status was a huge blow to the three noble siblings.
However, just as they were hesitating about their future, an unexpected opportunity appeared in front of them.
"Big brother, what do you think?"
Jill looked at her big brother and asked in a low voice.
"Hmm …."
Doron, who was as strong as a bear, sat on the bed with his arms crossed. He frowned and did not speak for a long time. As the saying goes, once bitten, twice shy. The three of them, who had just lost all their wealth because of a certain merchant, naturally would not easily believe the suggestion of another outsider.
But … they really did not have any other ideas or solutions.
Although the Capuya family had relatives and friends, they had long given up on these people. When they were overwhelmed by their debts, Capuya had already asked these people for help, but no one was willing to lend them a helping hand. At most, they only felt sympathy for the three of them. It could be said that … in this aspect, they had tasted the coldness and warmth of the world.
"Big brother, what are you hesitating about?"
On the contrary, the youngest sister, Joste, did not understand what the two were thinking.
"It's rare for someone to be willing to help us. Isn't that a good thing?"
"You don't understand, Joste."
Jill frowned and said.
"It wouldn't matter if it's just me and Big Brother, but we're worried about you."
"Worried … about me?"
Joest looked confused as she looked at her sister, who had yet to react, while Jill sighed.
"Yeah, we're worried that the other party might have taken a fancy to you."
"Eh … Eh?!"
"I've actually heard of this kind of thing."
Capuya nodded in a low voice. Although Joste was only twelve years old, he still had to make things clear in this situation. In fact, as nobles, they had also heard of similar things. Nobles like Capuya who lost their titles and became commoners were rare, but they were not the only ones.
These people usually didn't have good encounters, and there were even cases of noble ladies being captured and toyed with after they were reduced to commoners. In the end, they became pitiful sacrifices in the brothels. After all, the Empire was a system of nobility, and it was not allowed to be rude to ordinary nobles. But it was different for former nobles. No matter how high and mighty they were, they were now just prisoners being toyed with. Brother Capua had even heard that some people specially "bought" these down-and-out young ladies and made them the concubines and lovers of merchants or other powerful people....
In the past, this was just a rumor. But now, they felt the truth of the rumor firsthand.
"He said that he would help us pay off our debt, and he wants us to work for him. That's going to cost a lot of money. If it were me, I wouldn't casually hand over such a large sum of money to someone I'm not familiar with, so I'm worried that he might want you to stay by his side as a hostage."
"Eh?"
Hearing her brother's words, Joest was also stunned for a moment. Jill also nodded.
"Yeah, if he finds an excuse to assign me and my brother to some remote job, we might not even get to see you once a year. It's hard to say what will happen to you when that time comes...."
"Ugh...."
Joest's face was also flushed. After all, she was only a twelve-year-old girl. Hearing her two brothers talk about such things in front of her still made her feel a little ashamed. But after thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth.
"I-I'm willing! As long as Big Brother and you are safe, I'm willing to do anything! "
"Are you kidding me?!"
Jill clenched her fist hard and slammed it on the table.
"Do you want us to sell our sister and live a good life ourselves? Are we that kind of people?! "
"But Big Brother still owes a lot of money. Didn't those people say that if Big Brother can't pay up, they'll catch me and sell me off? In that case, I might as well follow Mr. Fangzheng.... at least.... at least compared to those vicious people, he's much more handsome! "
"Ugh...."
Hearing this, Brother Capua and Jill were speechless. But just as Joster had said, the people they borrowed from weren't good people. Previously, when they came to collect the debt, they did say that if they couldn't pay up, they would use Joster to pay off the debt. Judging from the way those people behaved, they weren't just joking.
But....
"Little sister, do you think that pretty boy is more handsome than your brother?"
".... Big Brother, you didn't drink today, did you?"
"...."
At that moment, Kapua really wanted to jump out of the window.
The night passed.
Early the next morning, the three siblings came to the hotel again to meet with Fangzheng.
"So, you've made a decision?"
Looking at the three siblings in front of him, Fangzheng smiled and asked. Kapua and his siblings looked at each other, then at Fangzheng again.
"Sir, I'd like to ask.... What do you want us to do?"
"Specifically? I need you to be responsible for selling this. "
While saying that, Fangzheng took out a Little Tyrant and placed it on the table.
"What's this....?"
"An era-defining high-end entertainment device. It can be used to listen to music, play games, communicate with other players, and take photos...."
After that, Fangzheng deliberately observed it for a while. He found that although this world was not quite the same as his own, there were many similarities. The reason why the Little Tyrant could not be sold was not because of its poor quality, but because after Fangzheng defined it as a game, most parents felt that it was not worthwhile to spend so much money to buy such a game console. Meanwhile, those merchants and nobles with status felt that this kind of entertainment was not as elegant as things like equestrianism.
So, Fangzheng decided to take a roundabout approach.
After all, the main function of the Little Tyrant was also to learn.
Although there were games like Snake on Literari Star, wasn't the main function still to look up a dictionary?
The main function of a mobile phone was to make calls, not to play games with money, right?
So, Fangzheng decided to change the direction and focus on the "high-end entertainment device" as his main selling point.
As for the game.... he would just treat it as a free gift.
Under Fangzheng's introduction, Kapua's family quickly got used to the Little Tyrant. They were shocked.
"Have conductive devices reached such a level?"
"That's right. Because the price is relatively expensive, I'm aiming at the high-end market in the Empire. The nobles should like it more."
"Indeed, the nobles will definitely not let go of such a novel thing …."
Gill nodded as he looked at the Little Tyrant in his hand. He was also a noble. After trying it out under Fangzheng's introduction, his interest was immediately ignited.
"Next, I'll give you a sum of money. You can go to the imperial capital and open a shop. You're nobles yourself, so I think you should know how to deal with nobles. Of course, you can also train some shop assistants. That's up to you."
"Can't we open a shop here?"
"I advise you not to do that."
Fangzheng glanced at Gill and waved his hand.
"Let's say that the land you own was really obtained by a noble through some means. He definitely doesn't want to be exposed. That's how people are. Even if they do everything perfectly, they will still worry about being discovered. If you stay here, you might cause the other party to feel uneasy, and then they will directly eliminate you in the bud. I'm here to do business, so I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble. Also, staying here all day and watching your home and land being invaded by others isn't good for your mental health. My suggestion is that since you can't change it, you might as well hide far away. Out of sight, out of mind. "
"…."
After listening to Fangzheng's suggestion, the three looked at each other and nodded. Indeed, as Fangzheng said, if they stayed here and watched others do this and that to their home … they would definitely not be happy.
"Alright."
Having said that, Fangzheng took out a card.
"The money in this should be enough for you to pay off your debt and open a shop. After you go to the imperial capital and choose a shop, you can call this number to contact our people and sign the terms of cooperation. As for how you manage the shop, that's up to you."
"…."
Kapua took the card and looked at Gill. For a moment, the three siblings were speechless.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else? "
"That's it? Sir, don't you need to sign any agreement? "
"There's no need for that. I've already told you that I have a way to confirm what you're doing. If you really want to try it out, signing it would be a waste of paper."
Fangzheng appeared to be very calm, but the three people who heard his answer were not calm at all. After all, in their expectations, they did not expect such a development!
"So, do you need a maid …?"
Thinking of this, Joste asked cautiously. But before she could speak, Ling, who was sitting next to her, spoke first.
"Big Brother already has Sister Angie as a maid, right? Big Brother? "
"Yes, that's it."
Upon hearing Ling's question, Fangzheng nodded.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, you guys can leave. I hope that you guys can settle this matter smoothly and don't cause any more trouble."
Although Fangzheng's voice wasn't loud,
However, the three of them could sense an unquestionable majesty and pressure from his tone.
So the three of them didn't say anything more. They just nodded silently, then turned around and left.
Only then did Fangzheng look at Ling.
"What's going on in that little head of yours?"
"Hehe …."
"What are you laughing at?"
Fangzheng reached out his hand and rubbed Ling's chubby little face.
"Okay, get ready. We're going to the imperial capital."
"Okay! Big Brother!! "
