Adam revealed the incredible wealth of the nation controlled by Satan's line.
Howe Group, Safi Group, and Arant Group are all assets of Satan's lineage! These three groups have a history of a hundred years. They are time-honored leading enterprises in the UK. They cover almost all the industries that the UK depends on for survival, especially the financial industry!
The British people were shocked. Those who had planned to demonstrate against the appointment of the Archbishop of the Royal Church by a family run by a dark wizard shut up. Many of these people have relatives and friends who work in these three groups. Those who don't want to have trouble with their jobs can only choose to shut up.
But there are also radical people who plan to organize strikes and marches to force Adam to abdicate and let a white wizard of Raphael's lineage take charge of the Obikris family. But at this moment, the British government stood up.
The government stated that wizarding culture has become a very distinctive part of British history. The descriptions of dark wizards in movies and books are artistic imaginations. People should not bias their interpretation of dark wizards because of this. On the contrary, wizarding culture has provided a lot for people's lives. pleasure. To this day, there are no facts proving that the rumors about dark wizards are true. On the contrary, hypnotism originated from witchcraft, and hypnotism has now been well used in life and serves people. The UK is a democratic country, and everyone in the Obikris family is a citizen of the UK. They should be protected by the law and enjoy their due rights until there is no evidence that someone has committed an illegal crime.
This was obviously supporting the Satan lineage, and what happened next further confirmed this.
The official medical examination report of Andre and Abel and his son was released, confirming that they indeed died suddenly. A white wizard from Raphael's lineage even came out to prove this. Moreover, three days later a memorial service for Earl Albert was held.
It is said that believers from all over the world are welcome to bid farewell to the old count, but in fact, in such a short time, some people simply cannot make the trip. On the day of the mourning meeting, people from the royal family and the British upper class came to mourn the old man who left kind memories to the world. On that day, many believers did come. Perhaps out of respect for the deceased, there were no riots on that day, and the entire memorial and farewell meeting was calm and full of sadness.
After the old earl was buried, Adam officially accepted the title of earl and became the real head of the Obikris family.
On the second day after Adam was knighted, a distinguished guest was welcomed to the family's ancient manor.
It is Xia Shao.
Xia Shao was led by the housekeeper and walked along the corridor like an old Western-style castle until she came to the door of a room.
"Mr. Earl is waiting for you in the study, distinguished guest. You may come in." The old butler's attitude was respectful, but he was confused and frightened, with all kinds of emotions in his eyes.
What’s confusing is that haven’t Xuanmen and the Satan lineage declared war? Although the old earl has passed away, Mr. earl's father is still alive. This grudge has not been resolved. Why does the girl in front of him dare to visit alone
What was shocking was that when the old housekeeper laid his eyes on Xia Shao, he could clearly feel the strong energy in this young girl. Her cultivation level... was probably above Mr. Earl's! Mr. Earl is a rare genius in the family. There are actually people in this world who are younger than him and more powerful than him.
If Xuanmen hadn't come to England, the family might not have been turned upside down so quickly...
The old housekeeper's eyes were complicated, but she did not dare to say anything. She was a distinguished guest that Mr. Earl allowed to meet in the study, and no one dared to stop her or ask more questions. During this time, the entire family had seen Mr. Earl's skills, and he still felt trembling when he thought about it.
Xia Shao smiled and nodded, glanced at the old housekeeper without any trace, then knocked on the door and entered the study.
In the quaint Western-style study room, the blond man with blue eyes was sitting behind the desk, opening books. When he saw Xia Shao coming in, he raised his eyes with a smile. Although it was daytime, the light in the study was dim, and the man's light blue eyes had a faint melancholy look in the light, but there was a smile on his face.
Xia Shao spoke first than Adam, "Mr. Earl, I'm here to congratulate you."
"It's an honor." Adam smiled and stood up, inviting Xia Shao into the private living room in the study.
"Mr. Earl is so kind. He allowed me to watch many good shows during my stay in England." Xia Shao said with a slight smile after sitting down.
Adam personally poured black tea for Xia Shao. The black tea was freshly brewed. He obviously knew that she would come today and had prepared it a long time ago. "Miss Xia, please call me Adam. I'm sorry that it took a long time to deal with family affairs. Let Xia Shao The lady has been waiting in a foreign country for a long time."
Xia Shao has been in the UK for half a month since the mural was escorted back to China. How could Adam not understand the meaning of her words
Xia Shao smiled deeply. In fact, her stay in the UK for half a month was really not just to wait for the outcome of the Obikris family. She is still waiting for the decision of the board of directors of Ladis Group. She is bound to get the 10% equity.
It just happened that in the past few days, the Obikris family had staged several big dramas.
The speed with which Adam inherited the family really impressed Xia Shao. She believed that the shock and turmoil experienced by the outside world during this period were nothing compared to the shock experienced within the Obikris family. When Adam announced the death of the old earl and expressed his intention to take over the family, he should have settled the forces and differences within the family.
From the night at the beach house to the end of the mural handover ceremony, it only took a week. For an ancient family with a profound heritage and thousands of years of heritage, the Raphael lineage has occupied the status of the family for hundreds of years, and the centipede is dead but not stiff. Moreover, with the death of Andre and Abel from Raphael's lineage, and the clan elders still being around, their power cannot be underestimated. But it only took Adam this little time to overwhelm the forces of Raphael's lineage and forcefully announce the change of family inheritance rights. Iron-blooded skills must be indispensable in this.
What makes Xia Shao interesting is that Adam actually exposed Satan's business industry to force the British official to recognize his status. Those commercial industries are holding the lifeline of the economy. Even if these three multinational groups are not the only ones in the UK, if there is a shock to the three century-old companies, the economic shock will definitely not be what the British official is willing to see and bear.
Of course, getting official recognition does not mean that everything will be safe and sound. The power of believers from all over the world cannot be underestimated. Some radical believers may be very angry about Adam inheriting the title and taking charge of the family, and it is very possible that they will do something crazy. In short, Adam has just taken over, and if he wants to secure this position, he will indeed need several years to repair the family, appease the believers, and lay a solid foundation.
These are all labor-intensive things, and Adam has been very busy in the past few years. Of course, Xia Shao saw his skills and abilities during this period, but as she just said, Adam had just taken the position of the head of the family, and his foundation was unstable, unless this man could become the real Obi-Kris in people's minds. As the head of the family, his orders can be issued effectively. This is another reason why Xia Shao became a shareholder of Ladis Group.
Before Adam laid a solid foundation, it would be useless for Huaxia Group to borrow the connections of the Obikris family.
This time can be said to be at least three years.
Of course, Huaxia Group couldn't wait three years, so Xia Shao wanted to take the 10% stake in Ladis, which was considered an insurance policy. Of course, she will not be lenient when it comes to taking things from Adam.
"I promised Mr. Tang before, please rest assured, Miss Xia, it will definitely happen. But now the family matter has just been decided, and I can't get away. Although my father plans to go to Hong Kong alone to apologize to the respected master, he is not For the sake of my children, I still hope that I can accompany them on this trip. Therefore, I have a heartfelt request. I hope that Mr. Tang and Miss Xia will give me another three months to handle family affairs. I will definitely go to the annual meeting. Hong Kong comes to apologize." Adam said.
His request was reasonable. The family had just decided that at this time, he really couldn't travel far.
"I can't make the decision on this matter." Xia Shao lowered her eyes.
Adam smiled and said, "I understand. I will personally call Mr. Tang and request him."
When Xia Shao heard this, his face was cold, "Mr. Adam, what happened back then was your father's fault. As a son of a man, it is your filial piety to bear all this for your father. This is not wrong. But I am very curious, is it your father's fault?" Father is always hiding behind you, why can't you even call my master?"
The last time Adam returned to England and called Tang Zongbo, Andre didn't show up. Adam said that Andre planned to go to Hong Kong alone, but Xia Shao never saw his sincerity.
Adam lowered his eyes after hearing this, with a wry smile on his lips. This really made Xia Shao misunderstand. In fact, his father Andre had always wanted to go to Hong Kong. Although he had been cowardly all his life, she rarely saw his courage in this matter. It was for this reason that he would not allow him to go alone, and the uncharacteristic courage shown by a man spoke volumes of his determination. He was afraid that if his father went to Hong Kong, he would not be able to come back... So, he planned to accompany him and help him bear some of the blame if there was any.
Although he had only met Uncle Tang Zong once once, Adam could tell that this old man was a person who valued friendship. He also hopes that his filial piety will move him and finally let his father go. Adam did not deny that he had repeatedly contacted Tang Zongbo on behalf of his father, and indeed had such thoughts, but as a son of a man, his selfishness was helpless.
"Okay, this time I will let my father make the call to Mr. Tang." Adam reluctantly agreed, but he was not afraid that his father would get excited on the phone and promise to go to Hong Kong alone. Because he had just inherited the family, and there were many things going on. It was a critical period, and his father would not be relieved if he left.
Xia Shao knew that Adam's stomach always had a lot of twists and turns, but she didn't care about it. He is a smart man and will not offend Xuanmen at this time. Therefore, no matter what his intentions are, it cannot be detrimental to Xuanmen. Let Master decide whether to go to Hong Kong to make amends.
"Okay, I will tell Master and wait for your call." Xia Shao's words made Adam feel relieved.
But before he could relax, Xia Shao smiled while holding the tea cup.
This smile made Adam slightly startled, "Miss Xia, do you have any other instructions?"
"I don't take the instructions seriously. I just have a gift to give to Mr. Earl." Xia Shao changed her words, smiled deeply, took out a document from her body, and handed it to Adam.
Adam was stunned for a moment, then took a look and his expression changed. He has always been calm about his emotions, and few things can make him change his expression, but the document in his hand really surprised him!
This is a cooperation agreement between the Obikris family and the Huaxia Group. The family's network resources around the world will be borrowed by the Huaxia Group for free. As the head of the family, Adam naturally understands the significance of this.
The most important thing is that stamped at the end of this document is the fire-paint emblem of the Obikris family!
The file is valid! This is absolutely authentic!
"Miss Xia, is this a congratulatory gift?" Adam raised his eyes and looked deeply at Xia Shao, with a smile on his lips.
"Of course." Xia Shao calmed down and said with a smile, "Our two factions have grudges. If the grudges between us are not resolved, I don't need the Obikris family to fulfill this agreement. But if the grudges are over, Huaxia Group will definitely come and collect the portion promised in this agreement."
Adam understood what Xia Shao meant. She was saying that if the grievances between the two parties were not resolved and Tang Zongbo refused to forgive the Satan lineage, then she would not want the benefits of this agreement. However, if the grudge is over, she will definitely come to collect what she deserves. According to this document, although Huaxia Group has taken advantage of it, in fact, if he is willing to lend his family's connections around the world to Xia Shaoyong, the two parties will have a close relationship, and then the relationship will be that of collaborators and allies. He had just taken the position of the head of the family, and it was better to have one more ally than one more enemy, so the girl in front of him said without blushing that this was a gift to him.
Adam laughed, it was obviously her who had taken advantage of him, and she could still claim to be alive even though he died in the end.
Adam was not a fool. Although he was shocked by the agreement in Xia Shao's hands, after thinking about it for a moment, he could guess where the agreement came from.
It must be Abel!
At first, Adam and Xia Shao secretly joined forces. He helped her lure a person from the dark side out, while she helped him deal with Andre and Abel. She first won Abel's trust and made him think that Xuanmen had really declared war on the Satanic lineage, and then there was a beautiful reversal that night at the beach house!
But Adam didn't expect that although Xia Shao was setting up Abel, she didn't forget to ask for benefits from him. And this benefit turned out to be so amazing. Abel must have taken a lot of risks to get the family leader's seal, and in order to bring down Satan's lineage, he did not hesitate to make such a heavy promise. But what he didn't know was that he was set up by Xia Shao, and Bai helped her take a big risk. When Abel was dealt with, Xia Shao changed hands and brought the document to him...
What a plan!
She had included the two brothers in the scheme, and had already reached this point when she called them both to discuss cooperation.
Adam laughed softly, "Miss Xia, I have never admired anyone, you set a precedent."
"Thank you. So, what is Mr. Earl's reply?" Xia Shao asked with a smile.
"I hope that one day the grievances between us will be resolved, and I also hope that this agreement can be used." Adam smiled. It is impossible for him to hope that this agreement will not be used. He is undoubtedly hoping that the grievances between the two parties will not be resolved. He didn't want anything to happen to his father, so in the final analysis, she even considered her own thoughts and was sure that he would agree.
It is indeed better to cooperate with such a girl than to become an enemy with her.
This document does not require Adam's signature. It has the family head's seal on it. Even if one day he, the head of the family, can no longer sit down, this document will still be valid. Xia Shao showed this document to Adam, just hoping that he would have an idea.
After talking about this matter, Xia Shao didn't stay long and said goodbye and left the Obikris family.
But Xia Shao still has not returned to China. She is waiting for news from Ladis Group. Old Burton promised her that he would give her a reply within three days.
During this time, Old Burton was very depressed. To be precise, I was about to vomit blood.
The affairs of the Obikris family shocked the whole country, and the one who was most shocked was him. This was different from what he imagined! The news of Earl Albert's death actually passed like this? Although the process could not be considered peaceful, because the earl was cremated, many people suspected that there was something wrong with his death, but the matter was resolved as quickly as possible, and the bones were turned into ashes. Who can find out the cause of death? What made him vomit blood was that the successor to the Obikris family turned out to be a lineage of Satan. This diverted the attention of believers around the world from the death of the old count, and focused their emotions on opposing Adam becoming the head of the family.
Xia Shao took the old count's body from him and returned it to the Obiklis family. Everything passed peacefully.
Old Burton almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He really didn't expect that Adam would inherit the family! He always believed that the person who would inherit the family would be Raphael. Earl Albert and Raphael were from the same lineage. They would definitely seek justice for his death! That's why he asked Xia Shao to help. But how could he have imagined that the person who inherited the family was from the Satan lineage, had a grudge against Earl Albert, and didn't care how he died! Maybe, I wish he would die!
Well, then he gave the mural as a gift and promised Xia Shao to consider the equity. Wouldn't it be that he gave away such a huge benefit in vain
Old Burton, who valued money all his life, really couldn't breathe and almost died.
But he couldn't blame Xia Shao. It was his own error in judgment and his own desire to please Xia Shao. Moreover, the mural has been delivered and has now arrived safely in China. The welcome party has been held and is now being displayed in the museum! Is it possible that he can come back? Even the matter of equity, he had to continue to consider.
Because Xia Shao is not someone to be trifled with. He made a mistake in judgment and had to take back what he said. He asked Xia Shaolai to pay for his mistake and waited in the UK for half a month in vain. If he offended her and disturbed the Feng Shui of Ladis Group, he would lose more than a hundred dollars. Ten percent of the shares!
