Why are you messing with him? All the animals in Tokyo are his minions.

Shuyue never seeks trouble.

The chairman who suddenly asked such a stupid question is the one with a big problem.

Shuyue thought for a moment before asking, "Is this chairman from the Hiruko family?"

Kanda Yui nodded. "To show his sincerity, the other party immediately revealed his identity when he called. He's from the Hiruko family. Should we refuse him?"

"No... If he wants to visit, then let him come." Shuyue said indifferently: "Since he wants to see me, he will definitely have many excuses, but... I won't interfere in the affairs of the Leech family."

Chapter 363 What kind of family is this? Poor yet stable

Large-scale competition venues have been built, and Shuyue also plans to let Yanzhu build a large funeral home.

These lands were all donated by Leech Matthew.

The descendants of Matthew the Leech wish him dead.

And the reason why Hiruko Matthew gave the gift to Shuyue in advance was because he had this day in mind.

Hiruko Matthew didn't expect Shuyue to do anything for him, he just needed Shuyue to do nothing.

In fact, Yun Yusuan couldn't stand Matthew because of the "world".

The existence of Matthew Leech itself is "against the rules", but he is a local magician and has some ability to prolong his life, which is allowed by the rules of the world.

Therefore, Hiruko Mashu is not hated by the world like Sayuri Araki's mother.

Moreover, Leech Matthew is very low-key and basically does not do anything that affects the world.

For Shuyue's sake, Yun Yusuan was still very tolerant towards Mashu Zhizi.

Among the board members of "Wang Xin Academy", the people from the Zhizi family actually looked for Yun Yusuan. They also knew that Yun Yusuan was a capable extraordinary person.

But after they explained their situation.

Yun Yusuan told them that they had accepted the favor of Leech Matthew, so they needed to repay the price, which was in line with the rules of the world.

All the descendants of the Leech family used the lives and bodies of their descendants in exchange for the resources given to them by Leech Matthew.

Trading life for money is an equal exchange.

If the descendants of the Leech family do not want their offspring to continue to be possessed by Leech Matthew.

They can choose to leave the Leech family and abandon any favors given by Leech Matthew.

I believe Leech Matthew will also agree to let them go.

After Yun Yusuan made this suggestion.

The members of the Hiruko family actually tried it.

No more Leech Matthew.

The descendants of the Hiruko family not only have exhausted magic circuits, but also cannot be extraordinary people.

The descendants of the Hiruko family are no different from ordinary civilians.

This group of people is even more ordinary than those people.

Something that the poor class, who were once looked down upon by the descendants of the Hirudo family, could not do.

If they were in that position, they wouldn't be able to do those things either.

and so……

After several days of testing the waters and suffering.

The descendants of the Leech family returned to their original state.

They did not want to give up the wealth and glory given by Leech Matthew, nor did they want to sacrifice the lives of some of their descendants to prolong the life of their ancestor.

They always hope to find a way to get rid of Leech Matthew and then take over the foundation that Leech Matthew has created over the years.

Kanda Yui picked up her cell phone and directly called the chairman from the Hiruko family, and told him directly that he could come to meet Shuyue, but he had to come alone and not bring other people.

The other party on the other end of the phone thanked me profusely.

After hanging up the phone.

Araki Sayuri, who was learning new things nearby, suddenly spoke up, "Shuyue, you accepted a gift from Hiruko Mashu and met with his descendants. Is this okay?"

Shuyue said calmly: "Sayuri, do you know what kind of family will remain poor and stable?"

"Stably poor?" Araki Sayuri looked at Shuyue in confusion.

Shuyue didn't look back. He sat at his workbench, facing the floor-to-ceiling window, drawing his favorite comic strip. "Hmm, the stability of being poor all your life and never being able to turn things around."

Shinki Sayuri's eyes rolled. "I can think of that, but... well, I can't think of a suitable word to describe it for the time being."

Kanda Yui looked at Shuyue and said, "Shuyue, Yui and I have followed in your footsteps since we were young. Everyone around us is thriving, and we've never seen anyone...poor yet stable. Even among our classmates at Wangxin Academy, there's no such person. Why don't you explain this to us?"

As Shuyue was painting, she said, "Some time ago, I read a biography of a man. There was a passage in his autobiography that touched me deeply."

"He said his ancestors lived in the countryside of China, and a few years before his grandmother passed away, he went back to visit her."

"By then, he had grown up, had a job and an income, and rarely returned home."

"When his grandmother saw him, she smiled and said many auspicious words and blessings, and so did the other elderly women in the family."

"He doesn't go back often, but the elders still seem to be thinking about him. He's very touched and happy."

"Later, one of his uncles told him that the old man had said those words of blessing to him just to ask for some money."

"It was then that he realized that some elderly people in rural areas who did not purchase social welfare when they were young did not even have a pension when they were old, and they had no source of income."

"If the elderly's children are not filial in this situation, their lives will be very difficult."

"So, from then on, every time he went back to the country, he would give his grandmother some cash, which was a perfectly normal thing to do."

"However, when his father found out, he started swearing at him. The swearing was unbearable, and he used extremely dirty language to insult him. His father blamed him for giving money to his grandmother."

"He couldn't understand it at all, because grandma is my father's mother. As a grandson, what's wrong with him giving her some pocket money?"

"He later found out that his father was afraid that his other uncles would know about this and think that their family was better off financially and should take better care of the elderly."

"That person described his family in the article as a huge internal consumption system."

"They are clearly blood relatives, but the parents have violent personalities, beating and scolding their children, and engaging in bloody internal fights with their relatives, as if they have a deep-seated blood feud."

"Not to mention that brothers and sisters support each other, it's already a very good thing that they don't scheme against each other."

When Shuyue finished telling this story.

Araki Sayuri and Kanda Yui fell silent.

Shu Yue continued, "You all studied psychology, so you must have seen similar cases. What happened in this family is magical, but it is a reality that many people encounter."

"Many people harbor resentment, schemes, and malice, but they never express it outwardly. Instead, they vent it internally, using moral coercion against their own people."

"This whole notion of beating being love and scolding being affection is all bullshit. This isn't love, it's just venting emotions and an incompetent curse."

"In any country, if you want to improve the group, 'family' is a belief."

"Thus, the lifelong goal of many chaebols is to achieve family prosperity."

“The difference is that those with greater abilities consider the advancement and development of larger families;”

"Those with less ability should consider managing and taking care of their own small families first."

Chapter 364 I’m not interested

While talking, Shuyue had already put down the dip pen and started washing his hands.

The squirrel assistants worked together, carefully took the original drawing aside, and began to fill in the blanks in the corners.

Shuyue slowly stood up, looking out the window at the bustling scene outside, muttering, "The prosperity of the family is everyone's common goal, and everyone is willing to fight for this goal their entire lives, even willing to sacrifice their lives for it."

“However, there will still be a phenomenon where ancestors and descendants drag each other down.”

"It's bizarre that children spend their entire lives trying to escape the negative influences of their families of origin."

"But think about it carefully. Aren't there many more people around you who would become a burden to the entire family than those who can contribute to its prosperity?"

"What went wrong?"

"How can a family continue to prosper? How can its wealth and resources be successfully passed down?"

Shuyue suddenly paused.

Araki Sayuri said quietly, "Indeed, the only one supporting the Hiruko family is Hiruko Matthew. His descendants are really no match for him. Once he dies, even if no one targets the Hiruko family, they will decline on their own. It won't take too long for them to become ordinary people."

Kanda Yui agreed and nodded, "Family members must support each other and have a unified consciousness, just like you, me, Sayuri, and mom, Shuyue."

The most terrifying thing for a family is not material scarcity, but various internal conflicts.

The poorer the family, the more troubles they have.

The disunity among family members is a problem, and internal friction is a problem.

We also need a "guide".

From a country to a family, it is often not everyone who drives progress, but rather unique "guides".

Even after experiencing changes of dynasties and social turmoil, the aristocratic families can still thrive, relying on their "guides".

And Matthew the Leech is the "guide" of the Leech family.

This is the information Shuyue obtained by extracting information about Hiruko Matthew through the system.

In his early years, Matthew Hiruko went to Japan alone from Europe.

At the beginning, Matthew the Leech just wanted to start a small family, get married and have children.

Although Hiruko Matthew is a magician, he lives like an ordinary person in his daily life.

When the leech family was still just a small family.

Thanks to the efforts of Leech Matthew, the family had land and had enough food and clothing, but they were not rich.

In years of famine, the ground was littered with starving people.

While other villagers built fortresses and stayed at home to protect their property.

Leech Matthew saw this crisis as an opportunity and donated food for disaster relief.

Then, Leech Matthew hired the victims to cultivate his idle land and hired the victims' children to work as servants in his home.

Because of the increase in labor force, Leech Matthew's capital thinking directly doubled the family's output.

The disaster year continues.

Leech Matthew took the opportunity to buy the land of the ignorant people around him at a low price.

Then, the Zhizi family became wealthy and powerful.

In order to protect his hard-earned family business and prevent it from being targeted by bandits, Matthew needs to form a guard team to protect his family, children and property.

Because of Leech Matthew's success, the villagers began to obey his command.

Gradually, Matthew the Leech began to establish his prestige.

Relying on his prestige, Matthew the Leech hired a teacher to teach all his descendants how to read and write.

Then, Matthew the Leech invested in business and used the wealth he earned to make friends with important people around him.

Gradually, the number of Matthew the Hirudo's descendants grew, and under his influence and knowledge, talented people began to emerge in the Hirudo family.

Although the descendants did not inherit magic circuits, they have people who excel in various fields.

Although Matthew the Leech felt very sorry, he was also very tolerant towards his descendants.

Gradually, the Leech family began to dominate the area.

Naturally, Leech Matthew became a great philanthropist in the place.

Then came the time of great chaos in the world.

Leech Matthew identified powerful organizations and spent money to support them.

With the help of Matthew Hiruko, the organization he supported eventually won the throne.

With Matthew Hiruko as the pillar behind the scenes, and the Hiruko family's descendants also including "founding heroes", the Hiruko family became the new elite of the dynasty.

The deeds of Matthew the Leech were talked about and passed down by his descendants.
