Greedy Landlords

Ves and Gloriana met a number of dignitaries at the headquarters of the THZ Consortium.

The dignitaries that came out and greeted the Larkinsons all tried to sell the Pellysa System in their own ways.

If Ves didn't know any better, he would have thought that these slick executives genuinely wanted to partner with the Larkinson Clan.

Still, despite their friendly smiles and despite their charming engagement, Ves could vaguely sense the truth behind their impeccably trained facades.

These people wanted to exploit Ves and his fellow Larkinsons. They wanted his clan to settle on Pellysa III so that they could derive all kinds of benefits from hosting it. From collecting taxes to commissioning exclusive products, there were many ways for landlords to milk their tenants!
