Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) -
Chapter 2822 Bad News Comes In Succession
"Dad, something terrible has happened."
Upon receiving the news that Matthew had formed a commercial alliance to target the Kellers, Louis was terrified. Matthew alone was already a formidable opponent, and now that he had joined forces with thousands of other powers, there was no point in fighting anymore. The Kellers should just flee.
Worman had also received this news early on when he had been reveling in the fact that Matthew had offended the Crown Prince, thinking that Matthew's days were numbered. But now, not only was Matthew safe and sound, but his power had also grown stronger.
"What are you babbling about? Can't you behave like a proper Keller?" Worman was already frustrated, and his mood became even more irritable when he was disturbed by the only remaining member of his family.
Upon learning that Matthew had formed a commercial alliance, Worman immediately sent out invitations, planning to unite his connections to fight against Matthew. However, this move ultimately fell through. Even the Whitfords, who were very close to them, chose to turn a blind eye.
"Hmph, what a bunch of ingrates. They don't remember who helped them grow and become stronger. Now that we are in trouble, they all choose to bury their heads in the sand. Why are you still here? Hurry up and arrange for more reinforcements."
Louis was kicked out before he could even speak to Worman. Even at this point, what he was worried about was not the safety of the Kellers but his inheritance. If worse comes to worst, he could sell all the Keller family assets and flee abroad to live a carefree life. If Worman knew what his only surviving son was thinking, he would either die of anger or go mad.
After the commercial alliance meeting had ended, the whole of Seraphis was abuzz with discussions about it, though nothing major happened. However, those with discerning eyes knew that this was just the calm before the storm.
One morning, the warm sunlight was pitifully scarce, and the cold wind seemed much harsher than usual.
Worman made one last contact with Druira, and the only response he got was to fend for himself. As for the man in the black robe who had previously urged him to act against Prince Gadel, Worman had not seen the man again. Worman could not reach the Crown Prince, and in just a few days, the once powerful Kellers of Skargness were treated like they had been infected with a plague, with everyone keeping their distance. The only option left for the Kellers now was to fight alone.
Seraphis Stock News: Keller Family Group's stock price plummeted at today's market opening.
Upon the release of the news, all members of the Seraphis Commercial Alliance knew that this was a signal from Matthew to seize the opportunity.
Worman had just received the news from the stock market and hadn't had time to recover when the butler brought news from the real estate sector. "Master, our neighboring communities have started to reduce their prices."
Worman just scoffed at this. "Hmph, reducing prices? Will those homeowners who have already bought their houses agree? Don't worry. They are being foolish by trying to hit the Kellers with such a method. How childish."
The butler hesitated for a moment before answering truthfully, "Those homeowners who have already bought houses are offering subsidies. However much the price drops, they will subsidize that much."
Er-
Worman's teacup fell to the ground at that. This was a competitive strategy that would hurt both sides. What homebuyers cared most about was whether the house price would rise or fall, and with the subsidy plan, homeowners would not lose money regardless of price fluctuations. Who would still buy houses from the Kellers?
"What a bunch of shameless people! They're using such despicable methods."
Worman immediately wilted after venting his anger as this issue was unsolvable for the Kellers. They had just recompensed the income from the Durham Family's treasure not long ago and were greatly weakened, so they didn't have any funds to fight back.
