The 550th chapter weak old lady (2)
This is a family contract in six copies.
The top official paper is snow-white and scratched. At the top is the family heraldry designed by Hesen himself - a huge sailboat, with ring-shaped smoke formed by naval guns on one side. The bronze hull looks particularly thick, quaint, and the light golden sail is full of money.
Surrounding the sailing boat is a circle of rose wreaths composed of four colors: gold, silver, bronze and black iron.
The four-colored flowers are dotted among the spiked rose branches, which adds a hint of artistic atmosphere to the sailboat in the middle.
Behind the sailing boat's rose wreath pattern is a huge relief tower shield background. A two-handed knight sword passes through the tower shield from the upper left, and half of the sword edge poked out from the lower right of the tower shield.
Sailing boats represent the source of wealth of the Vitu family.
Rose wreath, this is a kind of paranoid hobby of Liya... Hesen, who is so mad, naturally will not miss this element on the family badge.
The tower shield and the knight sword are family heraldic elements commonly used by the Teutonic nobles of the Empire.
The tower shield represents the identity of a military noble, while the knight sword represents that the family has male members joining the army and has obtained certain merits in foreign wars.
If you look carefully, you can still see a small Venus star on the hilt of the Knight Sword.
This means that the Weitu family has an imperial general!
If the Vitu family grows and grows in the future, the family grows and has a large population, more tribes join the army, and obtains the rank of general, then the number of Venus stars on this family's emblem will also increase accordingly.
Through the number of Venus, outsiders can also judge that this is an emerging wealthy family or a wealthy family with a long history.
In the Derren Empire, there were hundreds of Venus densely packed with top Teutonic stars such as the Duke of the West and the Duke of the North Sea.
Compared with such a noble family, the lonely Venus star of the Vitu family seems so weak and meager.
On the snow-white official paper, neat and smooth handwriting was written with a typewriter.
Joe wiped his greasy palms on Ferdinand's orangutan's red pajamas. Amid Ferdinand's loud curse, he picked up a document and flipped through it.
There are six copies of the document, each with more than a dozen pages, each with a private seal from Hessen, and the official seal of the Notary Office of the Supreme Court of the Delun Empire.
On the last page of the document, Hessen had signed the name and stamped his own seal.
Next to Hessen's signature, Joe met the signatures of Director Hammer, Duke of West Wind, Duke of North Sea, and two other Supreme Court judges of the Imperial Supreme Court and several top Teutonic old nobles.
"Wow..." Ferdinand shook his pajamas, stretched his neck and turned his head over: "Is this a family contract? Ah, Hessen, how much did you spend to let these guys be notaries for your family contract?"
Hesen shrugged his shoulders and said disapprovingly: "Oh, it's just a favor, not a child."
Ferdinand whispered: "A favor? Ah, young man, you don't understand yet. You would rather owe money than owe favors... You should know that it is very easy to pay off debts. But if you owe favors, sometimes..."
Shaking his head, Ferdinand's eyes lit up. He looked at Hesen and smiled: "As the crown prince of the Empire, I think my personal name is quite legally effective... If I also sign this family contract as a witness..."
Hesen narrowed his eyes: "I owe you a favor?"
Ferdinand shook his head quickly: "Oh, no, five million gold marks..."
Hesen sighed: "That's it, your signature is precious, but five million gold marks... no one's money is not blown by the strong wind."
Ferdinand looked at Hesen angrily: "Your money is blowing from the strong wind. You cheated poor George's 2 billion gold mark last night!"
Hessen whistled.
Ferdinand sighed: "Well, I sold myself at a low price. I signed it, became a notary, and used the private seal of the crown prince of God's king... One million gold marks, this is the lowest price... You know, when I was young, I reconciled the territorial disputes between the two vassal states, and the price they offered was tens of million gold marks!"
Hesen coughed, and smiled and patted Ferdinand on the shoulder hard: "So, why are you so embarrassed? Then, please sign in the Witness column, and then use the print!"
"One Million Golden Mark!" Ferdinand raised a finger and stressed.
"Of course, cash on delivery! I, Hesen, are the most trustworthy when doing business." Hesen stood up with his chest.
Ferdinand grabbed the signing pen and quickly signed his full name on six documents. When Mr. Sigens was signing, he ran to find a box of ink paste. Ferdinand took out his crown prince seal made of gold, dipped it in the ink paste, and gently covered it on the document.
Joe was dizzy by the lines of complex terms on the documents and the numerous industrial names.
He raised his head and asked Hesen in confusion: "What kind of contract is this?"
Hesen gently patted his belly with his hands, and he said in a deep voice: "You have all grown up and have all got a title... I thought about it. The Vitu family's possessions should be determined as soon as possible."
"Gorkin is your elder brother, and his future Claude Province and his Upper Lockson County are all inherited by him. He is the eldest son, so the Chamber of Commerce of the Vitu family will naturally be inherited by him."
"However, he can only take 50% of all the profits of the Chamber of Commerce."
"Joe, according to the aristocratic inheritance method commonly used by Medland, as a second son, you cannot inherit the family business. This is also a common practice for each family, to avoid the family's strength being divided again and again, resulting in the weakening of the family's strength."
"But the Vitu family is an emerging family after all, and you are also the son of Liya and me. Therefore, you, and your children and grandchildren, will all enjoy 30% of the profits of the Vitu family chamber. However, these 30% of the profits cannot be cut in the future, and can only be fully inherited by one of your descendants."
Joe blinked.
His mind was a little confused... He was only over 18 years old, so why did he get involved in these things?
"Tifah, Weima, you are all going to get married. Of course, the daughters of the Vitu family cannot be underestimated. You each have a county territory, and this territory will be inherited by one of your children in the future."
"You will all enjoy 10% of the profits of the Vitu Chamber of Commerce."
"Of course, like Joe, you only have the right to pay dividends, and you cannot interfere in the operation of the Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce is Gorkin's."
Hesen gently patted the dining table: "We are going to return to Tulun Port soon."
"These documents are in six copies, you can sign them quickly... One is kept by Liya and I, and the other is sent to the Imperial Noble House for filing, and then each of you keep one. The division of the industry of the Vitu family has been decided."
Hesen smiled brightly.
Joe blinked, he looked at Tifa, then looked at Weima, shrugging: "Okay, I think this is reasonable... Of course, I feel a little uncomfortable, are we going to split up now?"
Hesen smiled and shook his head: "No, it's just that you have determined your rights. The sooner you determine the better. Don't be like those noble families, all the bullshit bastards are coming out."
Hesen snorted coldly and looked at Ferdinand with a pointing point.
Ferdinand rubbed his nose in disappointment, and he nodded to Hesen: "Ah, young man, your approach is wise... very wise... It is indeed wise to make sure everything together when the family has just risen and there are not so many messy intrigues."
"Ah... I'm so envious!"
Ferdinand blinked his eyes with his hands behind his back, his eyes sneaking like a mouse stealing oil and quickly swept over the documents in front of him: "Can I ask, how much does your fleet have in a year's total profit?"
Hesen pulled the corners of his mouth, showing a standard smile-smile expression.
Ferdinand looked at Hesen in anger and shouted: "What do you mean? What is your expression? Do you think I will peek at your property? I, Ferdinand von Heidra Fort, I am..."
Hessen took out a thick traveler's checkbook, grabbed the signing pen, quickly wrote a long list of numbers on it, and then signed his name.
He pulled off the check and handed it to Ferdinand lightly: "Run the pen fee, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Ferdinand immediately grinned: "You are a generous and generous gentleman, Lord Hessen... It's a pity that I don't have a daughter, otherwise..."
Joe quickly interrupted Ferdinand's next words: "Your Highness, even if you have a daughter, your current age... Haha, I don't mean to change my mother."
Qiao grabbed the signing pen, signed his name on six documents, and threw it away.
Hesen smiled and nodded to Tifa standing behind him: "Then, Tifa, Weima, hurry up and sign your names... Ah, dear Xiao Weima, in the future, you can buy ships of candies with your pocket money!"
Qiao sat back to the dining table, grabbed a large piece of sausage, and ate it in big mouthfuls.
There was a hint of sorrow in his heart.
There is an inexplicable feeling in my heart.
Laplaci's sharp and delicate voice rang in Joe's mind: "It's really complicated...human emotions, human emotions, human choices...it's really complicated!"
"But, what an interesting thing this is."
"It's really hard for me to understand... Sometimes you value family affection extremely... But you have to use a contract to ensure the sustainability of this family affection... Is human nature good or evil? Is it beautiful or ugly?"
Joe ignored Laplacie.
human nature?
What does this word have to do with you?
