Chapter 037: Killing Two Birds with One Stone (Asking for Collection)

Old Kate looked at her flamboyant granddaughter with a headache, among the children of the third generation of the family, there is no doubt that the granddaughter Adele in front of her is the most dazzling. Whether it is the source force, combat skills, and the ability to manage the family, it is the best in the third generation. If there is a flaw, it is probably her wild horse-like temperament and the fact that she is a woman.

If Adele had been a boy, Kate Sr. would have nominated her as her first in line of succession. But she is not after all, and Kate Sr. admits that it is not that women are necessarily inferior to men. But it is also undeniable that they are always beyond their power in some places. It's not about ability, it's about gender.

In the more than 400-year history of the Federation, there have also been several female presidents. But these women's presidents are usually short-lived, often passing through politics like meteors, leaving a glittering mark before disappearing.

So in old Kate's heart, he loves Adele very much. But there is one thing, even if the heirs in the previous ranking are insufficient, they will not let Adele take charge of the family. Eventually, Adele's future will stop at the family elders, which is predictable.

As for Jas and his brother, in fact, these two children are not as unbearable as Adele said. It's just that Adele's light is so dazzling that the two of them have dim starlight.

In old Kate's evaluation, one of these two took over the position of patriarch. Even if you can't make progress, you can keep it up.

Old Kate coughed lightly and said, "Okay, Adele, let's talk about where your money goes." It's your personal money, but it's so big that I have to ask about it. ”

"It's nothing, grandpa, I'll take them and bet." Adele said lightly.

"Betting?" Old Kate's eyebrows raised: "Death ring? Who did you vote for? ”

"That number one." Adele said smugly: "I have a hunch that I will make a lot of money." ”

"Number One?" Jas and his brother looked at each other and laughed, "Adele, you don't have a broken head, do you?" Who doesn't know, in the previous death rings, the guy who ranked first usually dies quickly. ”

"That's the past!" Adele raised her head, and it was not difficult to look at her brother squarely: "You would say that, it means that you have no investment vision, and you do not have the courage to be aggressive." My dear brother, maybe you need to be concerned about the news. As of yesterday, that No. 1 was still alive and had killed six people! Of course, if it were you, you wouldn't be able to kill any of them. ”

"You!" Jas stood up, a burgundy hue on his face.

Adele said lazily again: "Besides, you haven't heard that Mr. Horn has also invested heavily in this No. 1, is Mr. Horn's head also broken?" ”

Juston couldn't say a word.

"Jas, sit down." Old Kate said in a deep voice, and said, "The whole of Babylon knows about Horn's bet. But Adele, look, in addition to the fact that you invested 10 million without authorization not long ago, have you seen anyone who put a heavy bet on this teenager? I think you're taking a lot of risk. ”

"Grandpa, you're a friend of Mr. Horn, aren't you?" Adele asked, "In all the years you've known him, have you seen him do anything loss-making?" I've studied Mr. Horn's life, and every decision he makes, every trade is almost a sure win. ”

"If Horn was as good as you say, he wouldn't have let Baincord slip from the Maison's ranking to the famous ten years ago." Adele's other brother, Ted, said.

"Oh, it looks like you've studied Mr. Horn's deeds, too." Adele raised her eyebrows.

Ted puffed out his chest and said, "Grandpa used to say that whether it is our enemy or our ally, we need to know every detail about them. It's nothing, I just do what my grandfather says. ”

"What an obedient puppy." Adele nodded.

"What did you say!" Ted immediately changed color, and this sister of theirs had the ability to set them on fire like a powder keg with a sentence or two.

Adele sat on the couch and ignored Ted's anger, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "You're not deaf, can't you hear what I'm saying?" Well, I don't want to dwell on this issue with you. Listen, under the series of unjustified tactics of the Alexandrians, Mr. Horn is not invincible, but he is not at all. During that time, he was depressed and did not pay any attention to the provocations of the Alexander family, which led to the decline of the ranking. But even so, Berncord's back garden is still full of flowers. None of their five colonies have fallen, and more than a dozen business chains are still operating, and the family's profits continue to rise by a steady 5 percentage point every year. ”

"Bethcord has slipped only their reputation, not their strength! Their heritage has not been affected at all! Adele sat up slightly straighter: "And, according to my observations. In recent years, Bescord has invested more in the family's military force. What does this budget mean that it started growing gradually five years ago, my dear brother? This shows that Mr. Horn is ready to make a move, and Bethcord will once again show his despise to all those in Babylon. For the foreseeable next few years, the family is set to be on the rise. It is very likely that Bethcord will return to the ranks of the family, and even point to the giants! ”

Not to mention the two brothers, Jas and Ted, even old Kate was deeply shocked by Adele's prediction. After old Kate adjusted her mood, she said, "But this qiē is just your guess." ”

"Of course, if I'm absolutely sure, then I'm a prophet, grandpa." Adele waved her hand, "But for me, that's enough." Not to mention that we are friends with Bethcord, even if it is just to exchange 10 million in exchange for the kindness of a family that may enter a wealthy family, I think this business has been done. Grandpa, don't you think that our Moson family has been in the famous valve for too long, and it's time to move position. ”

Old Kate's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded: "It's really too long, it's been 127 years since our Moson family, starting from business, to now becoming a famous valve!" ”

"That's right, if at this time, we catch Bethcord's rocket, which is about to rush to the clouds. Even if it's a wealthy family, it shouldn't be difficult to mix up a family. Adele said this, leaned forward slightly, and said, "And grandpa, aren't you interested in Mr. Horn's sudden move?" Actually, I do know a little bit about it. ”

Old Kate immediately looked at the granddaughter.

Adele deliberately glanced at her two brothers, and said with a smile: "But I want to only tell you about this matter, and it is better for outsiders to know less." ”

Jas and Ted exploded, and the two of them got up in anger, their eyes wide open, and their expressions were as vicious as if they were about to swallow Adele alive. But Adele pretended to look at Kate pitifully, God knows that with her means, even if Jas and Ted join forces, there is nothing they can do with her.

Old Kate shook her head secretly, waved her hand, and said, "You two go out first." ”

"Grandpa!"

Jas's chest heaved and he wanted to say something. Ted shook his head and pulled him out the door. It's so good to die, Adele also added: "By the way, help us close the door." ”

After the two angry heirs left, Adele also changed her face: "Not long after the boys from the surface arrived in Babylon, Mr. Horn obtained the blood of the boy named Allen in the training building through his own channels. A few days later, he publicly threw a heavy bet on the teenager. Grandpa, don't you think there's some connection? ”

"Also, we all know what happened to the Bethcord family ten years ago. If you link these two things, you have the answer to what Mr. Horn did. ”

Old Kate lost her voice and said, "You mean, that child is Horn's grandson, Lanny's son?" ”

Adele nodded and said, "I can't think of a more reasonable explanation." ”

Old Kate showed a thoughtful expression, ten years ago, a big event did happen in Babylon. But this matter is limited to the circle of nobles, that is, Horn's beloved daughter Lannie actually eloped with a surface man. This was a disgrace to the aristocracy, a blow to Beskode's reputation, and a demoralizing blow to Horn.

Everyone knows how much Horne loves this daughter, and similarly, for the sake of Lanny, Horne will not hesitate to go to great lengths. Dispatch the family's powerhouse to hunt down the madman who dares to peek into his treasures, however, Lannie still chooses that man. The departure of his daughter devastated Horn and made him depressed, so he was taken advantage of by Alexander's family.

In the end, Beskode squeezed out of the Maison's ranking and slipped into the list of famous valves.

If you calculate the time, Adele's inference is not impossible. In particular, blood collection and betting have made this aspect of the possibility even more important.

Old Kate raised her head and said, "In other words, Horn is ready to pick up his grandson." ”

"No, the future ruler who will take back Bethcord, to be exact." Adele corrected: "Grandpa, don't forget Jì, Bescord is facing an embarrassing scene of no successor. After Horn, none of his sons were up to the task. As for the heir of the third generation, he is as weak as my idiot big brother...... Oh, so my gaffe. In any case, it is likely that Mr. Horn will raise this grandson as a continuation, if he can survive the death ring. ”

"In that case, we need to be prepared." Old Kai nodded.

"Don't worry about this, I've already thought about it." Adele stood up, raised her eyebrows and said, "As long as Mr. Horn adds that young man named Allen to the family heir sequence, grandpa, you can marry me to him." With my looks and means, I can vouch for Mr. Horn that Mr. Horn could not find the best candidate. What's more, he can also get the help of our Mosen family. You must know that in the resources of a person in power, the help from his wife is also a force that cannot be ignored, especially considering the future situation of that kid, Mr. Horn will definitely not refuse. ”

Old Kate nodded again, if Horn added Alan to the heir sequence. Because Eren didn't grow up in a family, it's no exaggeration to say that he will be surrounded by enemies on all sides. At this time, if the Mowson family is his help, then Allen's path to power will be much smoother, and this is what Horn is happy to see. What's more, in this way, Adele can be rightfully removed from the family heir sequence, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!
