Chapter Four, The Coslow Family
As soon as he took the first step, he passed through the gang, causing Hudson's arrogance as a time traveler to disappear instantly.
Sure enough, there are still many smart people in the world. Fortunately, we discovered it early, otherwise we would definitely suffer big losses in the future.
Perhaps seeing that Hudson was silent for a long time, he mistook it as a shock, so Baron Redman comforted him: "Don't be sad, at your age, it's not bad to be able to do this.
In fact, no matter how wonderful the performance is, it cannot deceive people who are interested. But most of the time, everyone chooses to pretend.
There is nothing wrong with you wanting to make a name for yourself through this matter, but just stepping on Lysol so hard is enough, he is your brother after all."
Brothers killing each other is very cruel to any father.
Although Baron Redman punished Lysol harshly, it was just because he hated iron, and deep down in his heart, he still missed his son.
After a pause, Hudson asked hesitantly: "But father, didn't you say that as a qualified nobleman, you should always think about maximizing your interests?
Lysol is not only of bad character, but also hopelessly stupid. Allowing such a fool to enter the aristocratic circle will only bring shame to the family. I am just using waste!"
To be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to yourself. Although the hatred belongs to the original owner, since you have inherited the identity of the original owner, you must inherit this hatred.
Humane destruction is too cruel, and Baron Redman will not agree to it, so he will take advantage of the situation and cut off Lysol's way forward.
Originally, once this incident came out, Lysol's future development would be affected, and it would be difficult to go out until the storm dissipated.
If you take another opportunity to step on him and let him serve as a stepping stone to gain a reputation for yourself, Lysol's future will become even more "unpromising."
Nobles have their own way of playing. No one likes a guy with a bad reputation, especially a guy like Lysol who has no title, and no one will accept him.
If you can't enter the circle, how can you talk about having a future?
Unless Lysol is a genius in cultivation and stands at the top of the mainland in one fell swoop. But this is almost impossible. The resources in the mansion are limited, and all the brothers and sisters are watching!
As time goes by, a genius will be lost to everyone, not to mention that he himself is not a super genius.
Probably stimulated, Baron Redman stared at Hudson, and after a while he slowly said: "Hudson, your views are really extreme. This is not what you should do at your age.
idea.
There is nothing wrong with utilitarianism, but one must have a heart to control utilitarianism and not lose one's original intention in utilitarianism.
Although there is never right or wrong in the world of aristocrats, there are only pros and cons; but there are many smart people in this world, and many times wisdom will be misled by cleverness. You should learn to settle down and hide your clumsiness.
Okay, you go down! Finish reading the books in the library first, and then think about this issue."
Baron Redman walked away, leaving a confused Hudson crying and laughing.
The conscience of heaven and earth, what he said just now was just to disguise. He made a small calculation to use Lysol, and it was also in line with the trend.
The relationship was not good to begin with, and if something like this happened, if he didn't even fight back, how could it not make people suspicious. After all, he was only a sixteen-year-old boy.
"Sedimentation" and "hidden clumsiness", do you need to say that? If he hadn't been worried that the change would be too big and attract the attention of interested people, he would have been able to live forever.
Ambition is based on strength. As a man of two generations, there are not many other advantages, but Hudson learned to be flexible and flexible.
Goldfinger has not yet received his payment. He is just an ordinary person with a few extra memories. In this world where the jungle prevails, how can he dare to win?
If the original owner hadn't been a scumbag and hated reading the most, he would have gone to collect books long ago. Baron Redman's order just provided him with a perfect excuse.
Walking into the "library" with the memory of Mohu in his mind, Hudson was quickly disappointed. The mountains of books he imagined did not appear, but only carefully stored parchments.
At one time, Hudson even had the idea of making a fortune by making paper, but this unrealistic idea was quickly abandoned.
Not to mention that the papermaking process is complicated, and it is not something he can do with just a little knowledge. The key is that the butt determines the head. Being in the aristocratic class, you have to consider issues from the standpoint of the aristocratic group.
The birth of paper can reduce the cost of knowledge dissemination and facilitate the dissemination of cultural knowledge, but is this what the aristocratic group needs?
The answer is obviously: no.
The production cost of sheepskin rolls is high, which is not conducive to the spread of cultural knowledge. It is a disadvantage. But on the other hand, this is also an advantage.
From the perspective of the aristocratic group, knowledge is naturally monopolized by oneself. The higher the cost of disseminating cultural knowledge, the more conducive it is to maintaining this monopoly system and the more conducive it is to the rule of the aristocratic group.
As a person with vested interests, he must not do anything that betrays his own class. No matter how important money is, it is not as important as life.
Picking up a volume of General History of the Continent, Hudson immediately read it with great interest. Unfortunately, most of the content above was vague and passed over in one stroke, and much of the content was still hearsay.
There is no way. Although the Koslow family has been passed down for thousands of years, they are still just a small noble and do not have the ability to collect information on the entire continent.
Hudson thinks the biggest reason why the family has been able to pass on the family to this day is the ability to produce seeds. Just look at Baron Redman and you will know that the Koslow family has always been talented in sowing.
Thanks to the family's fine tradition, except for the eldest son who inherited the family business, the other sons went out to work hard with a set of knight equipment and a few attendants when they grew up.
The cruel survival mode can best train people. Although most of the tribesmen fell on the road of struggle, there were still lucky ones who stood out. Either relying on military exploits or relying on noble marriages to obtain titles.
After generations of accumulation, there are no longer a handful of small nobles bearing the banner of the Koslow family, and they are considered to be the most prosperous families in the empire.
A large number of people does not necessarily mean a strong force, but a large number of people must have a strong ability to survive. Even if a certain line dies, someone will quickly replace it, and there will be no tragedy of being forced to take back the fiefdom by the empire because there is no heir.
If we operate according to this model and slowly penetrate it all the way, even if no particularly outstanding person is born, sooner or later the Koslow family will be able to become the top wave.
