At this moment, a young man spoke up and said, “I can understand holding the ancestor worship ceremony once a year, but why do you want us to come to Eastcliff for a debriefing and to report to you once every three months?”Charlie asked him rhetorically, “You’re taking the resources of the Wade family and earning the Wade family’s money. So, what opinions do you have now that I’m asking you to report on your duties once every three months?”The young man hurriedly said, “Our family has already moved overseas long ago, and we have gradually shifted the focus of our business over the years. The business that we are currently operating overseas has nothing to do with the Wade family anymore.”Charlie nodded and asked him, “What is your name?” The young man replied, “My name is Theodore Wade.”Charlie nodded slightly and said, “Okay. Let me ask you, what business does your family run overseas now?”Theodore hurriedly said, “We produce and sell Oskian-style furniture for the whole o

Charlie looked at Herman and asked seriously, “Was it really you?”Herman nodded repeatedly and clenched his teeth as he said, “Really... It was really me...”“Alright, then.” Charlie spoke up and said, “Since it’s you, you can stay back, then. Many things are waiting to be done in this family right now, and this is the critical moment to employ people. As for the descendants of the Wade family, they will basically be staying on Mount Wintry to mourn for the next three years. So, this is the time for the Wade family’s collateral families to make more contributions to the family.”When Theodore heard this, he started protesting immediately, “Mr. Wade! Although we share the same last name, we have already become independent long ago, and our family has our own affairs. How can we simply leave our own family affairs aside and run off to serve the Wade family at such a time?! Besides, ours is a small business to begin with, and it’s not like your family business. Wouldn’t it be even mor

Herman also nodded repeatedly as he instructed, “I’ll stay and serve the core family. When the time comes, you can take over the position as the chairman, then...”As Herman spoke of this, he sighed and said emotionally, “It’s just that you’re still so young and inexperienced now. I’m really worried that you will not be able to do it well if you are forced to do something that is entirely beyond your abilities...”Theodore hurriedly spoke according to his father’s words as he said, “Dad, don’t worry, I will definitely try my best to do it. I dare not say that I will be able to lead the group to advance by leaps and bounds, but at the very least, I will do my best to maintain the family business and wait for you to return to regain control of the entire company...”Herman sighed emotionally as he said, “Sigh! It’s my duty to serve the core family and so, at the moment, there is no other way but for me to force you to grow up quickly!” Charlie could not help but frown as he thought

If someone sold him a fifty-million-dollar villa that came with a twenty-million-dollar renovation for a hundred million dollars, he would also think that it was a good deal.Moreover, he would need to buy a variety of items, including a variety of daily necessities as well as cars, yachts, and even helicopters after buying the villa.In addition, he would also require a lot of human and material resources for maintenance to ensure that he would be able to go over and live there at any time and would always have maids who could provide their services to him at any time. Therefore, spending one hundred million dollars to buy the villa and then buying a car, yacht, and helicopter might end up being tens of millions of dollars. Furthermore, the depreciation cost was amazingly high, and it would easily amount to a depreciation of ten million dollars a year. Not only that, but the maintenance costs of the entire villa and the various equipment would also be tens of millions of dollars

Moreover, Ten Thousand Armies had already drained this group of people of their cash, and they had even signed a five-year installment contract. Their economic lifeline was already in Charlie’s hands. Needless to say, Ten Thousand Armies was already Charlie’s best fist and force level. This alone was already enough to scare off the members of the Wade family’s collateral families.As for the control of internal affairs, it was completely up to Charlie. He could easily destroy any disobedient head of the family and support any obedient person from within to become the head of the family instead. These members of the Wade family’s collateral families could also see right through Charlie’s intentions, but they simply did not have the strength to confront him. So, they were all forced to agree.When Charlie saw that all of them had no objections, he spoke up and said, “Since all of you have no opinions, we will then push forward as I have said. Give a report of the list and informati
