Chapter 636: 204. Calm Knight
There are two kinds of family banquets in the World of Wizards.
One is a gathering-style banquet with arge number of attendees, in the form of a buffet, simr to the “salon events” in Nnd Lee’s understanding, with socializing and interaction at its core.
The other one is the type of banquet Nnd Lee is attending now, with only the master and servant and specific guests present, without any outsiders involved. This kind of banquet is called a private conversation banquet, which is more private, and the content of the banquet is kept confidential by default.
In a private conversation banquet, there won’t be a situation of speaking while eating. The master and servant along with the guest will have their meals first, and then move on to the guest room for the formal private conversation.
“Thank you for purchasing the five inds for Miss, Mr. Jarvis,” Kaiden temporarily acts as the host of the private conversation, exining the purpose of inviting Nnd Lee on behalf of his master.
As Kaiden’s master, a young girl named Sienna sits solemnly, nodding from time to time in ordance with Kaiden’s words.
The two of them had obviously discussed beforehand to let Kaiden take the lead in the private conversation, while Sienna would nod and support from the side, giving authority to Kaiden’s words as an inheritor of the family branch.
With a faint smile, Nnd Lee epted the gratitude from the other two.
It was quite a coincidence. On the contract of ind trading, the column with the seller’s name is “Pang Family” without specifying which principal in the family.
Not until now did Nnd Lee know that the five isles he bought, all of which had been exploited for resources, were all under Sienna’s ownership.<div>
If asked why he targeted such isles with exploited resources to buy… Nnd Lee could only answer with the word “cheap” in this case.
Isles like these are priced at only about half of the same type and size isles.
In Nnd’s ind hoarding n, he arranged to buy isles from small torge.
So, cheap small inds like this naturally rank at the top of the shopping list.
Kaiden didn’t pry into Nnd Lee’s reasons for buying five inds at once, he knew it would be somewhat inappropriate.
He wisely avoided that topic and instead handed a document to Nnd Lee.
“Mr. Jarvis, on the ind list of the Ind Exchange, it will not specify which ind belongs to which family principal. You might be aware that the Pang Family has two principals in the Suman Archipgo. Miss Sienna is one of them. The other one is Miss Sienna’s cousin, the fifth in line to seed in the family, Dickler Fegan. Here I have a list of the inds owned by Miss Sienna. If you n to continue purchasing inds, we hope you would consider our isles first. After the transaction, we will return 2% of the transaction amount as our thank-you gift.”
Nnd Lee had read through the list that was handed to him.
There are 12 inds listed.
Five of them have already been bought by him, Nnd Lee.
The remaining seven are still listed for sale.
All 12 inds have been exploited for resources and are all in Sienna’s possession. Considering the family inheritance system mentioned by Kaiden before, Nnd Lee had some guesses in his mind.
“Kaiden, why have all the 12 inds under Miss Sienna’s name been exploited for resources?” Nnd Lee asked directly.
Sienna sat aside, pursing her lips, obviously feeling a bit uneasy. She probably worried that Nnd Lee wouldn’t buy her inds anymore.
Kaiden sighed helplessly first, then slowly exined the cause and effect.
Once a family member gains inheritance rights, they must undergo regr assessments by the family.
After each assessment is passed, family members can receive resource support.
If one assessment is not passed, resource support will be lost until the next regr assessment is passed.
After Sienna became the twenty-fifth in line to inherit, her first regr assessment she faced was selling inds.<div>
From the inds owned by Dickler Fegan, the family head transferred 12 small inds for Sienna to sell.
Dickler Fegan yed a little trick, emptying the explored resources on the 12 small inds in advance, and only then transferred them to Sienna like throwing away garbage.
Why did Dickler Fegan want to make things difficult for Sienna?
Well, that’s another story.<div>
Kaiden continues to patiently exin so as not to make Nnd Lee impatient and affect the ind selling matter due to his own concealment.
Sienna’s magical talent is neither Metal System nor Rock and Soil Series; ording to family rules, she can only inherit one-fifth of the inheritance.
Among the inheritance she inherits, there is only the ind the three of them are currently on and a small amount of money barely enough to maintain life.
This ind is the family territory she inherited from her father.
She moved to live on the ind from the Kashel Continent. Before selling this ind, she would remain the family principal of the Suman Archipgo.
As a result, two family principals from the Pang Family appeared in the Suman Archipgo.
To force Sienna to lose her principal status, she had to bepelled to sell her family territory.
The first step in forcing Sienna to give up her family territory is to break her first regr assessment and make her lose the resource support.
Only then would Sienna have to sell her family territory out due to financial difficulties. Of course, this territory won’t be for public sale as the Pang family members can purchase it first.
If Dickler Fegan can get Sienna’s family territory, then there will be only him as the principal in the Suman Archipgo.
This is the war among inheritors in arge wizard family, bloodless yet full of calctions.
