346 Family interests trump everything
How about taking my wife back and staying for two days?
Hearing this, Beta was so surprised that he could no longer maintain his facial paralysis. He couldn't help but frown and asked, "No need, what you said a few days ago was just a means."
"But I need to continue to maintain such a method now." Cleveland said calmly: "Your Excellency also said that there is a powerful force behind the city lord. You should also know that the city lord is a puppet we pushed up, but now he quietly created such a force that is out of our control. I believe that our Dor family alone cannot continue to eat it. I must unite with other families, but this will take time, and if you come and don't do anything, you will definitely be alarmed."
But Beta shook his head: "I have killed both the bishop and the juren of the Temple of Love. I believe the city lord has known the news now."
"He just knew you killed the people of the Temple of Love, but he didn't know that we were in an alliance." Cleveland said in a calm tone: "If you take my wife away from me again, then he will not have any doubts, so that he can gain a lot of time."
Beta looked at the man in front of him quietly, and after confirming that he was not joking, he couldn't help asking, "Is it worth it?"
"Many times, the Doer family can live today, and it is for ancestors to sacrifice themselves." Cleveland said naturally: "Besides, I am not asking my wife to die, I just stayed at my friend's house for a few days. There is no reason why my ancestors can do whatever they can do."
After hearing this, Beta was speechless. He unintentionally criticized Cvliland's concept. In the eyes of many patriarchs of families in this world, for the sake of the family's interests and survival, many things can be abandoned, such as explaining the affection on the surface, his own wife, etc.
Beta could understand, but could not agree. He shook his head and said, "But in this way, I completely confirmed the reputation of being a lewd wife and daughter."
"I don't think you are a person who cares about such things." Cleveland smiled slightly: "Besides, this is not entirely a bad reputation."
The aristocratic class has a strange concept of "sex". On the one hand, they strongly agree with the concept of chastity, while on the other hand, they have a promiscuous private life and even have a complimentary attitude to some extent and bottom line.
For example, if Beta takes Cleveland’s wife back, and after a few days of communication, he sends it back in full and gives a big gift, he will not only not get any bad reputation, but will gain a good reputation instead. Other nobles will think Beta is very ruling and is a "believers".
In the eyes of the nobles, this behavior belongs to the "a man admired his wife and couldn't help but do some unelegant actions, but he was still restrained."
If you snatch someone's wife and never return it again, then the nature will be different and you will only be despised by the entire aristocratic class. Of course, when your power and strength are strong enough to ignore other people's discussions, you can be more casual, such as some kings...
Such things are very common in the aristocratic class. Lower aristocrats can use this method to quickly establish relationships with higher aristocrats. All they need to pay is the wife's "ownership" for several days. However, on the surface, such things will be discussed by other aristocrats, who think that this person is just a bastard who is motivated by betraying his wife's body.
Moreover, not everyone is willing to "send" their wives. Some people really love their wives. Many times they are willing to work hard for their wives and others. So such things are usually done in secret and private, as Cleveland makes them so "high-profile" and are quite rare.
However, Cleveland's small trick has the effect of killing two birds with one stone. On the one hand, it can show weakness to the enemy, and on the other hand, it can strengthen the relationship with Beta.
Beta thought about it and agreed. As Cleveland said, he was not interested in other people's evaluations, and most importantly, it was indeed a good little trick. Beta only had to take the other person's wife back to the hotel and stay for a few days without doing anything, and he would get 30% of the benefits.
Beta is short of money now. Although he can get 100% benefits if he does it himself, no matter which world, eating alone is always a taboo.
Although 30% of the benefits are not much, it is actually quite a lot. The most important thing is that the city lord is a puppet launched by the nobles of Haveyah City. Everything about him is actually given by the nobles of Haveyah City. If he really wants to "fall", then the one who takes action should be the people of Haveyah City, and the one who benefits should also be the nobles of Haveyah City.
It is already good that Beta can get 30% of the benefits out of it.
"Since that's the case, I'll take your wife away for the time being."
Beta didn't say anything more. He walked out of the door, waved to the lady who was still waiting outside, and said, "Come with me."
The lady blinked her eyes, with a 'as it really' expression on her face. She pulled her daughter forward, but before she took two steps, Beta said again: "You can do it alone, your daughter doesn't need it."
When the lady heard this, her eyes lit up. For a woman of her age, she would have been bitten by a dog for a few days at most. Besides, the man in front of her was handsome and handsome, and her senses were not bad. The only thing she was worried about was that her daughter would suffer bad mental trauma in this matter.
But now that her daughter can stay out of the matter, this is the best result for her, and she even felt a little grateful to the young man in front of her.
Shirley was on the side, with a look of surprise in her eyes, but she didn't say anything. After all, she knew her "positioning". After all, she was just Beta's scabbard... and the goddess didn't say that Beta's scabbard could only be her.
And most importantly, Shirley doesn't think Beta will have any bad ideas about this woman. After all, she is already considered a young girl who is extremely beautiful and cannot make Beta "emotion", let alone this half-old Xu girl.
At this time, a young man came down from the stairs, the eldest son of the Doer family. When the lady saw it, she said, "Take your sister back, I'll be back in a few days."
The young man stared at Beta hatefully. He was about to speak, but the lady said sternly: "Have you heard it! Take your sister back."
After all, it was a young man specially trained by the noble family. He knew very well that if he resisted, the family would be very likely to be destroyed. Therefore, he just glared at Beta a few more times and left with a confused little girl.
Beta smiled slightly, and then left with the middle-aged lady. Along the way, everyone from the Doer family glared at him, and even felt ashamed in their eyes. They were helpless and could not even protect their tribe mother. The Doer family could be considered a powerful force in Havey City. They did not need to use such dirty means to increase allies and strength to their family, so in their opinion, there was only endless shame when encountering such a thing.
Beta took the middle-aged lady out of the manor, got on the carriage, and then returned to the hotel.
Especially outside the hotel, many people saw the scene of the Doer family's mother being taken to the hotel.
No one dared to point fingers on the surface, but Beta knew that they must have had many complaints about what they saw, but this was exactly the effect Beta wanted.
After returning to the room, Beta sat on a chair and stretched his waist long.
The middle-aged lady was in a complicated mood and was about to speak, but she disappeared from the room with a whirlwind.
Shirley saw it and smiled: "Why, she threw it into the mansion art space without even asking about her name?"
"There is no need for that." Beta shook his head: "Anyway, it will be returned to the Doer family in a few days. It's hard to see you again in the future, so why know so much?"
Shirley was happy. Although she knew that Beta looked down on such a vulgar fan, she felt different when she heard her man say this in person.
The years of experience in the city lord in the game made Beta already quite used to being a leader, and he was more used to waiting.
Beta continued to make magic scrolls. Anyway, there were many materials in the mansion space. In addition, making magic scrolls can not only bring him a certain number of character experience every day, but also enrich his "magic library". This thing that can kill two birds with each other can naturally not be let go.
Beta sat firmly on Diaoyutai here. The next day, Havey City began to become a mess. From time to time, a group of people ran away, and from time to time, some people wanted to enter the hotel, but Shirley stopped them alone.
Three days later, Cleveland came to the hotel with several guards and four boxes of gold coins.
As soon as he came in, he glanced at the room first, but he didn't see his wife. When he was frowning, he saw his wife appear in the room with a whizz.
The lady had been staying in the mansion space for the past three days. Although a little maid would come in on time for food, she was a little bored after staying for a long time. She asked the little maid to bring a message to Beta and let her go out. Anyway, she had made all the preparations, but the little maid came in again, but said that she could wait for three days to let her go back.
Now that the other party has come, the other party has indeed let her out, but she didn't expect that after she came out, the first thing she saw was her husband. Although nothing happened in the past three days, she didn't know why, but she felt a little guilty.
Cleveland looked at his wife, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Grandpa Beta, according to our previous agreement, I have brought you 30% of the benefits. Because there are too many pieces of things, we have converted them into gold coins, about 400."
