The temperature in Gefra dropped a lot in November, and the coldness brought by the humid air made thick clothes a joke.

No matter how much you wear and how long you stay outside, the cold and moist air can pass through people's airtight clothes and penetrate people's skin and enter their bodies.

The coldness is like a piercing awl, constantly drilling into the bones!

But if you wear it thicker and have more, even if it’s just a few, not a lot!

After a while, you will be sweating all over, and then the sweat will merge with the cold air outside to become a headache and biting winter!

Winter is coming...

Yes, autumn has passed, but winter is coming, right?

Pedestrians on the road huddled up, lowered their heads, and braved the cold wind.

The quiet imperial capital does not seem to have changed much from the past, but beneath this cold, calm surface is a volcano that is about to erupt!

"He has a good relationship with my uncle..."

In the warm room, the best wood that costs more than ten dollars a pound is burning in the fireplace.

The biggest difference between these expensive woods and those cheap woods is that they produce less smoke when burning, and the oil secreted by the wood when burning is more fragrant.

There is no need for any incense in the room. The unique woody aroma brought by burning wood will continue to permeate the room.

It is not as pungent as chemical fragrances. One breath can last for a long time, and people will not be affected by those smells as soon as they leave the room.

The fire was burning brightly in the fireplace, and the young count recalled the past, "I was still young when my father was seriously ill. At that time, I didn't know what it meant that he couldn't get up."

"Maybe I just feel that he is very pitiful. He needs help even to sit up."

"At that time, my uncle often came to visit us. He would help my father pat his body. He said that it would make his body healthier."

"I would also talk to him and talk about some things when they were young. I was a little grateful to him at that time!"

The young earl picked up the cup and took a sip of the wine. "My father is always in great pain when he is lying in bed. Only when he comes and says those words can he put a smile on his face."

"I don't know what to do, maybe this is the best gift he can give me."

"Until...when he leaves this world."

The little earl sighed quietly, "Everyone started to blame me. Some people accused me of not doing what a child should do when my father was seriously ill. I didn't do what I could do for him."

"Some people also accused me of not acting as a qualified heir during his serious illness, which caused many crises in the Earl's Palace."

"At that time, part of our industry was blocked, which became an excuse for others to attack me."

He looked at Lynch, as if he was talking about past events that had nothing to do with him, "I was only thirteen or fourteen years old at that time. They asked me to do too much. I'm not a god. I definitely can't do it. Those ones."

"Then with the help of that bastard, the uncles, aunts, and my brothers and sisters in the family began to think of ways to strip me of my identity as the heir."

"That bastard forged some false evidence and found a lowly groom to say that he had an affair with my mother. I am the groom's child..."

The little earl couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He was very angry, but all his anger was hidden under his smile. "He said that a groom's bastard is not qualified to be an heir. Fortunately, some people still spoke for me." .”

"They confirmed that there was nothing wrong with my bloodline, and then those people started thinking of other options."

"They asked me to take out what originally belonged to me and let me compete with them. They also tried to find a way to break all the family property into pieces and secretly transfer it away."

"Fortunately, my father still has some good friends who helped me when I needed help the most."

"I inherited his title, but I also lost a lot of family property!"

This is the reason why the little earl can be said to be at least a very powerful noble, but he has no real estate except some real estate and some investment products.

The entire family's property was stripped away by his relatives. If they couldn't take away the title of the young earl, they took away the property.

Then these uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters took refuge with other nobles.

The reason why they did this was not to give the young earl a chance to take back the properties they had taken away.

"That bastard also played a very disgraceful role here. My bastard uncle is now his daughter's husband!"

Lynch nodded, "We can greet your uncle first. I think you haven't seen each other for a long time, and you will definitely have a lot to say..."

At the same time, in another warm room in the imperial capital, a middle-aged man in his forties was talking to his employees about some work at the end of the year.

Gafra is an island country with very limited resources. However, Gafra took the lead during the great voyages in the early years.

Their navigation technology has also developed well, and they are among the earliest groups in the world to engage in world trade.

Many nobles have their own trading companies for import and export trade. There are also some nobles who are not very good at doing business, but they know how to obtain stable profits.

For example, just buy two ships and call them under the name of other trading companies, and then wait for dividends every year.

The little earl's past property included such a part, about seven or eight ships, and this part was also a relatively important part of the family's income and expenditure.

Every quarter, these ships can bring in hundreds of thousands of furla in revenue, but when his uncle failed to compete for the title, he took this part of the industry away with him.

At that time, the little earl's mother only focused on helping him stabilize his title, thus allowing many people to leave with the family property.

This part of the estate now belongs to the young earl's uncle and his wife.

His wife holds half the shares.

The little earl's uncle rubbed his eyes. It was the end of the year and there were a lot of things going on. He had to work long hours every day.

This is not the only company in his hands, there are also other companies that need his personal attention.

The heavy work every day did not calm his heart, but made him more and more irritable.

There are many reasons for irritability, such as... Little Earl.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't have anything to worry about. He has an enviable status, a noble bloodline, a social status that needs to be looked up to, and he is also very rich.

But he was full of dissatisfaction, dissatisfaction with his nephew, dissatisfaction with his brother's wife, dissatisfaction with his own wife and dissatisfaction with his wife's father!

His life is not as beautiful as people imagine, and he also has his own troubles.

He is dissatisfied with everyone, and he has his own reasons.

Recently, the news that the little earl and his group made a lot of money in Amelia spread back to the island, which made him feel inexplicably irritable.

No matter what the reason is, people who have a breakdown will not hope that the other person will live better than themselves. "Live better than me" is just a way for those winners in life to satisfy their own boring desires from the perspective of moral role models. Just a hobby.

Only "You deserve to have a bad life without me" are people's real thoughts and ideas.

The better the little count's life was, the unhappy he became, which also made his heart always filled with certain emotions that could explode at a moment's notice.

Seeing his damn nephew becoming rich and enjoying all the privileges brought by the title, the emotions in his heart were about to explode, and he needed to vent!

After packing his things, he left the company a little early.

The weather was a bit cold today, so he didn't go home directly.

He and his wife are currently separated. The old nobleman always wants to interfere in his work and life. He has paid "protection money", but the other party doesn't seem to want to let him go.

The old noble also owns a trading company and has about twenty ships. He wants the little earl's uncle to merge his company with the old noble's company.

He didn't want to, and therefore angered his wife.

Thinking of all kinds of unhappy things in his mind, the car slowly arrived at a famous neighborhood in the imperial capital.

This place is famous not because it is a scenic spot, nor because it has a large number of nobles gathered here, nor because it is the core of politics, culture and finance.

It is famous only because it is the designated entertainment district of the imperial capital.

In Gevra, it is legal to be escorted, and it is also legal to enjoy special services in the box.

He needed to vent his rage, and there was no better place than here.

He has a girl he knows well, she is in her early twenties, young enough to be his daughter, but he doesn't care, and neither does the girl.

What he needs is to vent, what the girl needs is money, and there is no question of who is nobler than who in this transaction.

The little count's uncle got out of the car and walked into the roadside entertainment place. He asked for an empty room and then looked for the girl he was familiar with.

It didn't take long for the girl to enter his room, familiar but not enthusiastic.

With just the right grasp of the relationship, he didn't have the cheap feeling of spending money to buy happiness. Instead, he felt like he was home.

The girl is very smart. Starting from her recent work, we talked about the international situation and politics.

These are the kind of content that the men of Gefra love.

The two chatted and leaned together. From the first kiss, there was no rush at all. The temperature in the room was slowly rising, just like a sudden emotion.

They don't look like female ticket buyers and female cousins, but rather like men and women in the early stages of marriage.

Seeing everything continuing so naturally, when the anger in my heart was about to be vented, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Bang bang!
