What if the forest fire is fierce? Isn’t a tsunami enough to submerge the entire forest, let alone a mere forest fire? This is the check mate in the final analysis.
Adrian Peters didn’t speak for a long time. He had been keenly observing the father and son in front of favonovel.com with eagle eyes, watching all their respective changes in facial expression, eye movement, and even changes in their thinking. Observing words and emotions is Adrian Peter’s greatest ability. After so many years with Lord Banks, his eyes were almost more accurate than a polygraph. He could clearly and firmly judge that the father and son before favonovel.com were tempted.
This was a huge relief.
Secretly favonovel.com thought, “The master was worried that two billion wouldn’t impress the Elms family. However, it seems that the psychological price for this family is not as high as the master expected. Two billion seemed to be a little too much. If I started with 1 billion, we could have negotiated and after a few back-and-forths, the Elms family would have settled for 1.5 billion! This way at least 500 million wouldn’t be spent in vain. As compared to 2 billion per year, this would represent a savings of 5 billion over ten years.
But then Adrian reconsidered, “However, at the moment, the Banks family is in the middle of a serious crisis, and Lord Banks’s own safety is an issue. It is indeed not a time to bargain. The most important thing is to secure the house and protect the safety of the old man. Lord Banks must also have his own plan. This price will be provided to the Elms family for one or two years at most. Once the crisis is over, Lord Banks will never continue to pay such a high price for the support of the Elms family.” Thinking of this, Adrian Peters felt a little more comfortable.
He then asked Wilfred, “Master Elms, what would you like to do?”
Wilfred felt a dry pain in his throat and swallowed. He then said, “I really didn’t expect that Lord Banks would treat this matter so seriously.”
Adrian Peters smiled and said, “Of course, our master has not valued the Elms family for merely a day or two.”
With that, Adrian Peters waved his hand and smiled, “Master Elms, let’s cut to the chase. I have conveyed Lord Bank’s words to you. You are the head of the Elms family. You must give me a clear answer on whether the Elms family is willing to accept Lord Banks’ invitation.
Wilfred nodded, and favonovel.com calmly analyzed the pros and cons of the Elms family’s promise or non-compliance.
If favonovel.com were to promise, the benefits will naturally be countless. Returning to serve the Banks family and having enough money, the younger generations of the family would be provided with all the resources needed to practice martial arts regardless of the cost. Perhaps within a few years, the Elms family would be able to generate a group of outstanding geniuses like Xion. This would be of great significance to the Elms family. Because once the overall strength of the younger generation made great progress, the entire Elms family can quickly overtake its opponents.
The Elms family has a legacy which dates back hundreds of years, and every patriarch’s biggest dream is to enable the Elms family to reach the top of the pyramid of domestic martial arts families. Climbing to the top means seeing all the mountains and small hills. No longer one of the eight big families, one of the four big families, or one of the three big families. Rather, the biggest and strongest one! This is the benefit of agreeing to return to the Banks family.
On the other hand, what are the disadvantages of agreeing to return to the Banks family? Wilfred thought about it and realized there was no reason other than his heavy heart over the treatment of his daughter Kairi and his granddaughter Xion. But this did not outweigh the benefits.
On the one hand, the Elms family’s centuries-old plan, on the other hand, the betrayal of his daughter and granddaughter. From the very beginning, there had been a huge gap in the balance between these two interests. Wilfred suddenly decided that favonovel.com shouldn’t hesitate at all for this kind of problem. Why hesitate any longer?
