The New Year in Vienna is surrounded by waltz. This city of music now lacks everything, but it does not lack musical cells. Even if the country is depressed and the homeland is full of depression, it can’t resist the Viennese people’s preference for music.

Of course, the Viennese here refers to the upper class who can eat and wear warm clothes without worry. Only those who are still full of food and doing nothing have the mood to appreciate the beauty of music.

Li Xiao thinks that he is a little out of place with this city, or that he is so out of place in the upper class society of this era. Probably because of the traveler, although he had a period of longing, yearning and intoxication for the luxury of the upper class, these were quickly wiped out in Bucharest.

After seeing the life of the so-called jet-stream society, he suddenly felt that it was meaningless. The so-called nobleness of a group of people who are completely relying on their laurels is really not admirable. After dealing with these guys, you will find that they are so empty, except for a shiny shell, what is inside No, I can only numb myself by indulgence, which is actually quite sad.

Anyway, this kind of life of doing nothing and waiting to die is not what Li Xiao wants. The traversers always do something that traversers should do, change this era, and leave their own unique mark in this era. This is a bit meaningful.

“The Marquis Schneider is bankrupt,”

Just as Li Xiao was looking at the red men and green women on the dance floor thinking about the future, the Duke Alexander next to him suddenly interjected. This made Li Xiao a little bit inexplicable, because he really didn’t know who this Marquis Schneider was? I don’t know what the broken bankruptcy has to do with him.

However, the Duke of Alexander didn’t seem to notice Li Xiao’s expression. Instead, he said to himself: “Can you believe that this Marquis Schneider owes a debt of about 1 million rubles! And he just inherited the family business ten years ago? At that time, the Schneider family had at least 300,000 rubles of working capital left…”

In other words, this prodigal squandered about 1.3 million rubles of assets in ten years, which is about 140,000 pounds. Well, the £140,000 this year is a huge sum of money. Ordinary people can live quite comfortably with a £10,000. Not to mention living a life like a fairy every day, at least it is also a life of a fairy servant.

“Not one million and three hundred thousand rubles, but 3.2 million rubles!” The Duke of Alexander calmly corrected Li Xiao’s mistake. He added with a smile: “During this period he also sold a few Manor, some villas, and some stocks…”

Well, Li Xiao was completely speechless. He looked at the short brown hair in the middle of the dance floor. He was really slender and hugged Marquis Schneider, who was dancing with a celebrity, and sighed that this prodigal son really could be made!

“Of course, this is not much, at least compared to his Lao Tzu, it is far behind. The Schneider family is the big landlords of Hungary and Transylvania. In his great-grandfather’s time, the assets were probably tens of millions. Rubles. Then his grandfather and father kept squandering, until he finally bottomed out…”

Li Xiao became more and more speechless, feelings, this is a prodigal family! If there were tens of millions of rubles worth of assets thirty to fifty years ago, what kind of concept is this? Not to mention the richest man in the world, he is also the premier rich man. It seems that it is not a good thing to be too rich. If he has such prodigal descendants, he might be so angry that he can lift the coffin board.

“Don’t be surprised, my little friend.” Duke Alexander laughed. “In fact, all the people you see are in debt. At least 70% of them live on debt. The so-called nobility. Not as glamorous as you think!”

You don’t need to introduce Li Xiao to the Duke of Alexander, because there are records in the history books. The closer you get to the modern traditional aristocracy, the harder it will be. Whether it’s St. Petersburg or Vienna or Berlin, or Paris or London, there are a lot of run-down nobles. These people, except for the title of bluffing, can be said to have no money left, and they live not ordinary embarrassment.

For example, Li Xiao knows that many dukes or marquis live in cheap apartments in St. Petersburg. They may look like dogs when they go out, but they are extremely shabby when they come home. In order to support the facade of the so-called nobility, they gritted their teeth, in fact, they lived without dignity than anyone else.

“Maybe within three years, the Marquis of Schneider will have nothing and will soon be forgotten. Who would have thought that the former Schneider family was so prosperous and prominent?”

Li Xiao was a little bit unsure of Duke Alexander’s intention to tell him these things. He replied cautiously: “It seems that I must educate my children and grandchildren well, lest they get angry again!”

The Duke of Alexander glanced at him and said lightly: “Of course, but that is not the most important thing!”

Li Xiao was taken aback, knowing that the really important meat show was coming, he immediately cheered up and asked, “Then what do you think is the most important?”

The Duke of Alexandria did not directly answer this question, but pointed to another aristocratic brother not far from the Marquis Schneider who looked as if his age was different, and whose expression was almost the same, said:

“That’s the Marquis of Liendorf. He is almost the same as Marquis Schneider. They are both the same playboys. They spend money like water and have so many hobbies. Even when he inherited the title, he had less wealth than Marquis Schneider. But you Do you know? He is even richer now than before. Why do you think this is?”

Li Xiao answered carefully: “This Marquis will invest more?”

“Fart!” Duke Alexander smiled contemptuously. “He is a playboy, a stuffy stuff. He doesn’t have any other strengths except for the strength of the bed!”

Li Xiao replied frankly: “I’m sorry for being stupid, UU reading www.uukanshu.com really don’t know why!”

The Duke of Alexander smiled lightly and said: “The reason is very simple. He is taken care of. The richest legacy left by his ancestors is not money, but a relationship, an inexhaustible wealth for the descendants of the family!”

A ray of light flashed in Li Xiao’s eyes, but he immediately covered it. He pretended to be curious and asked, “Then what kind of relationship is this?”

The Duke of Alexander replied solemnly: “Take care of each other, support each other, and the relationship of both prosperity and loss!”

Li Xiao nodded slowly, and asked solemnly: “Then how can we get this kind of relationship, or this friendship?”

The Duke of Alexander smiled satisfied and replied: “You really didn’t disappoint me, you can always grasp the point at once!”
