“Add, click, recommend, don’t miss out on a single one. I beg you all.”
While Zhao Hai and the others were exploring the swamp, Casar city was not peaceful. It was not because of the Versailles family, but rather, it was Lola.
Laura’s current business was much bigger than before. The red spider lily shop occupied more than 50% of the daily necessities market in the entire Versailles Duchy. This number was truly shocking.
Although the Versailles Duchy wasn’t very big, the daily necessities market in the entire Duchy was still a big piece of fat meat. Now, the fattest piece of this fat meat had already been eaten by someone. How much money could this person earn every day? It was definitely not an exaggeration to describe it as earning a lot of money every day.
A piece of fat was placed there, and anyone would want to take a bite. However, there were bones in this piece of fat meat, so not everyone could bite through it.
However, just because outsiders couldn’t bite her, it didn’t mean that his own family couldn’t. This time, the ones who had set their eyes on Laura were none other than the magicians of the magicians family.
Although Laura’s father was the second-in-line successor, their family’s old patriarch was still alive. He was Laura’s grandfather, Kleen’s father, Sauss.
This great patriarch who ruled the huge business empire of the magicdare family was not an easy person to get along with. He was a pure businessman. In his eyes, anyone and anything was a business and a commodity. As long as the price was enough, he would sell them.
And this head of the magedell family had a business sense that was beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and his methods were cruel to the extreme. Ever since he took over the magedell family, the business of the magedell family had grown a lot bigger than before.
Although the business of the markidder family was very big, Laura had almost occupied half of the market share of daily necessities in the Duchy. It could be said that Laura’s current income was very high among the several heirs of the markidder family.
The head patriarch couldn’t ignore this situation. To be honest, the head patriarch really didn’t like his second son. It was because Kelun didn’t like doing business.
In the eyes of this head of the family, you were born into a family like the marginder family. If you don’t learn how to do business, then what do you want to do? If Kelun only wanted to learn magic, he could learn it well. However, Kelun didn’t want to. He didn’t like to study magic, but magic arrays.
If it was magic that Kelun liked, then it would be fine. Even if he didn’t like to do business, he could still become a powerful mage, and it would be of great help to the magicians. However, he only liked to study magic arrays, and he wasn’t very strong himself. He was only a 7th-tier mage at most.
A 7th-tier mage was already a very impressive existence to an average family, but to a large family like the makidel family, a 7th-tier mage was a little insufficient.
It was precisely because he didn’t pay much attention to Kellen and Kellen didn’t like to do business that he had long lost the possibility of inheriting the position of the family head even though he was the second in line. That was why they were sent to the Duchy of Versailles, a small place in the North.
The location of the Duchy of Versailles was not very good in the arksu Empire. It was located to the North and was connected to the orcs. Although the orcs were not causing trouble now, there was no guarantee that they would cause trouble again when the disaster happened that year. In addition, the orcs were not rich to begin with, and the Commerce in the Duchy of Versailles was not very developed. Compared to the entire arksu Empire, the Duchy of Versailles was just a small, remote place.
However, in remote places, people also needed daily necessities, and Laura had done a great job. The products of the Paradise were now not only sold in the Duchy of Versailles, but also in the entire Arkas Empire.
Of course, Laura didn’t cooperate with others. All the business was done by herself, especially the products of Tao Yuan. To any daily necessities store, they were living signs. How could Laura be willing to give them to others? besides, she had an agreement with Zhao Hai. If she wanted to let someone else sell the products of Tao Yuan, she would have to inform Zhao Hai in advance.
It was precisely because the products of Taoyuan were so popular that they naturally attracted people’s envy. Not to mention others, even the heirs of the magicians family wanted to compete for it.
The markidder family didn’t pay much attention to the other aspects of the heir, but they paid great attention to the heir’s ability to do business. This was also an important standard for the markidder family when choosing an heir.
For the position of the family head, other than Kelun, the other seven heirs of the magicider family province had already fought each other to the point of bleeding. It was too normal for them to play tricks with each other.
It was impossible for Kelun’s father not to understand this situation. Although this great patriarch was not young now, he had never thought of giving up his power. Although he had let those heirs run their own businesses separately, whatever actions those heirs had could not be hidden from him.
Kelun’s group was an exception. Back when Kelun and Laura were in the Versailles Duchy, the magicians didn’t have much power here. It could be said that everything in the Versailles Duchy was built up by Laura and the others. Although they had the name of the magicians, they didn’t have any power.
It was precisely because of this that the magicians had the least influence on Kelun and the others. Furthermore, Laura and the others did not have to worry about the magicians doing them any harm. Firstly, they had helped the Versailles family a great deal this time and were greatly indebted to them. Ivan was also a person who knew how to appreciate favors. Thus, Laura would not be in any trouble in the Versailles Duchy.
In addition, Laura also knew a black magician with unfathomable strength who controlled the products of the Paradise. This also made many people very afraid.
However, benefits were the most tempting. People would do anything for benefits. When Zhao Hai was on earth, there were people who would do anything for benefits, and that was on earth where the law was relatively complete. On the ark continent, there were no such complete laws. Those people would do anything for benefits.
The others were apprehensive of the magicians and did not dare to make a move, but the magicians themselves would naturally not be polite.
This time, the person who came to find Laura wasn’t sent by the patriarch of the magicide family. To be honest, although Laura had created such a big scene and was still not in the patriarch’s eyes, those heirs were different. They were now fighting for the position of the patriarch, and if they could get the products of the Paradise, it would be of great help to them.
The one who came to find Laura wasn’t Kelun’s big brother, the first-in-line successor of the makidel family, senwan, but the fifth successor of the family, Carlo.
Of course, Carlo did not come personally. Instead, he sent one of his stewards, a man called oroga. This man was one of Carlo’s servants when he was young. When Carlo grew up and had his own forces, and oroga was very capable, he was promoted to steward. Of course, he was not the general steward, but just a steward under the general steward.
Although there were a total of eight heirs in the magilder family, there were only three people who had the most strength to compete for the position of the patriarch. One of them was Karen’s older brother, the first heir in line of the magilder family, senwan, and the other was Carlo. The last one was the eighth in line, Jamie.
Among them, Jamie was the most popular, because he was the most favored by Sauss, the head of the magicider family, while senwan was the most supported by the people below him, because senwan was the first in line to the throne. He was also very good at doing business, and he was the oldest, had been in the family for the longest time, and had the most power under him.
Carlo was the weakest of the three. He didn’t have the patriarch’s favor and didn’t have senwan’s power. However, he was the best among his brothers. He was smooth in dealing with things and maintained a good relationship with the major nobles. He also had the support of the servants in his family.
Compared to Kelun’s status in the magedell family, Carlo’s status was naturally much higher. This time, Carlo had already given Kelun a lot of face by sending him.
Laura already knew about this before oroga even reached Casa City. She brought kun Zheng and Kelun to her study and said, ” &Quot; Grandpa kun Zheng, father, I’m afraid that it’s not a good thing for orojia to come this time. What do you think? ”
&Quot; what can we do? ” Karen thought for a moment. &Quot; if he’s here, then so be it. What can he do to us? ”
Laura was rendered speechless by Kelun’s reaction. She then turned to kun Zheng, who replied calmly, ” &Quot; when Laura was killed, someone in the Zhang clan wanted to interfere with our business. Additionally, Laura’s movement was leaked by someone in the Zhang clan. At the beginning, we targeted senwan. However, it’s impossible now. Senwan didn’t need to do that at all. At that time, we were not as big as we are now. We couldn’t arouse his interest at all. Someone must have framed senwan. &Quot; And the person who did this could be either kalor or Jamie, only they would think of such a way to deal with senwan. I don’t think kalor sending people here this time is a good thing.”
Lola nodded. &Quot; of course I know this isn’t a good thing. It’s just that I can’t tell why they’re here. Is it for our industry or for the products of paradise? ”
Kun looked at Laura and said, ” I’m afraid it’s not possible for them to do it for our businesses. We earned all the businesses here. They don’t dare to snatch them. Otherwise, they would lose the right to compete for the position of the family head. I think the duo long is still aiming for the products of paradise. Right now, the three groups of people are fighting fiercely, and Carlo is obviously at a disadvantage. He should be trying to use the products of paradise to expand his power. &Quot;
