Chapter 10: Define your position
Xu Yi did not hesitate at all, smiled and nodded: "Yes." ”
Hearing Xu Yi's affirmative answer, the reporters in the audience suddenly made an uproar.
A moment later, a bunch of arms were raised from the audience.
"President Xu, are you really sure you want your daughter to be your sole heir?"
"President Xu, do you mean by the sole heir that your descendants will not inherit any of your family property except your daughter?"
"President Xu, if you have another son in the future, won't you consider having him inherit your family property?"
"President Xu......"
......
Waiting for the excited emotions of the reporters in the audience to retreat slightly, regain their quietness, and stare at themselves intently, Xu Yi smiled and asked rhetorically: "Why do you react like this? She is my daughter, is there anything wrong with being my heir?"
"The point is the only one!" a reporter in the audience shouted: "President Xu, the only meaning is that you don't plan to leave your family property to other children?"
"I think your understanding is a little skewed. Xu Yi shook his head. "The sole heir means that my daughter is the only one who is likely to inherit my title. As for the property...... That's another story. ”
"Title?" the reporters were stunned. "Doesn't it have anything to do with family property? What about the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?
Xu Yi looked at the reporter who asked the question in surprise.
"The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce does not belong to me alone, why should my children inherit the position of president? What's more, even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really belongs to me alone, the president should also choose a capable person to serve as the president. If my children are not outstanding in business, am I going to watch the New Flying Chamber of Commerce decline in their hands?"
The journalists thought about it. I feel that Xu Yi's words have some truth, but they are really inconsistent with the traditions on the Sainz Continent.
According to tradition. A big chamber of commerce like the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, where Xu Yi occupies absolute control, Xu Yi is absolutely unwilling to hand it over to outsiders.
At all costs. He will also train his heir to be the next president, so that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will control the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce behind the scenes, and still actually control it.
Judging from Xu Yi's attitude, his most likely approach will be the second.
After all, if his children inherit his title, they will also be noble.
And his children may not be as special as Xu Yi, who can have the status of a nobleman and a businessman at the same time, so it is most feasible to control zhì behind the scenes.
Thinking of this, the reporters were immediately relieved.
However, this question can be thought of, and then there are many more problems.
"President Xu. You said that your title will be inherited by your daughter in the future, why not consider leaving it to your son?" asked a journalist. "Many people say that you are doing this to show your support for Her Royal Highness Severny, is that so?"
This is what all journalists really care about.
If Xu Yi answered yes, it means that he began to officially and clearly show his support for Her Royal Highness Queen Severny to everyone, and it also means that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will be officially included in the camp of Her Royal Highness Queen Sevigny.
Although Xu Yi did not do this, everyone also thinks the same way, but Xu Yi did not clearly state his position before. The new flyers may change their stance at any time, and they can also have a greater buffer on many things.
And after Xu Yi makes his position clear now, it will be difficult for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to change in the future, and Xu Yi's doing so is equivalent to putting all the bets on Her Royal Highness Queen Sevigny.
And once Her Royal Highness Queen Severny finally failed to ascend the throne. But His Royal Highness Prince Eric becomes the next king, so the ending waiting for Xu Yi and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can be imagined.
Therefore, although Xu Yi only confirmed his daughter as his sole heir, at first glance it was just his private family matter. But because of Xu Yi's sensitive identity, the importance of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. This matter is by no means just a family matter, there are too many factors involved.
How could Xu Yi not know what the reporters were thinking at this time. He understood better what they meant by asking this question, but he had made this choice after careful consideration, and naturally he would not seem to be panicked when faced with this question now.
"First of all, I don't have a son right now. Xu Yi smiled. "Secondly, even if I have a new love with Steele in the future, and we are still a son, since I have already determined the heir, then there will be no changes. Because the more important the issue, the more you can't repeat it, otherwise it will be bad for everyone. I want my children to live in harmony and not to see them resentful of each other or even fight each other because of the lack of clarity about inheritance. ”
The reporters in the audience opened their eyes wide at the same time, their eyes full of surprise.
"President Xu, can I interpret your words as an accusation against His Majesty the King?" a reporter couldn't help but ask in a loud voice.
Xu Yi smiled lightly and spread his hands: "This is your own understanding, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
The reporters didn't pay attention to Xu Yi's vague statement, and recorded Xu Yi's answer word by word in the small notebook in their hands.
A moment later, another reporter asked, "President Xu, you haven't answered the latter question, did you deliberately choose to make your daughter the sole heir in order to show your support for Her Royal Highness the Queen of Sevigny?"
"You can think so, because it does contain some of my thoughts. Xu Yi nodded. "But for me, this is my first child with Steele, and it's very important to me. Seeing her birth, I can't wait to give her all the things I have. As for the title, the president, or whatever, it doesn't matter in comparison. This is a normal father's thinking, and I think you should be able to understand it. ”
Although the reporters also wrote down Xu Yi's answer in the second half, compared to it, it is undoubtedly his first affirmative answer that is much more important.
Xu also affirmed the reporter's doubts, which means that he really has the idea of supporting Her Royal Highness the princess Severny through his own decision.
The importance of the new flying chamber of commerce to the entire Lampari kingdom now. Her Royal Highness Severny has received Xu Yi's clear and comprehensive support, which is equivalent to adding an extremely important bargaining chip to Her Royal Highness Sevigny's side. It is extremely helpful for Her Royal Highness Queen Severny to inherit the throne.
But Xu Yi's approach has a drawback, that is, he does it. It clearly has the meaning of stimulating His Majesty the King.
Wasn't he worried that this would arouse His Majesty's disgust, and instead make His Majesty the King more inclined to let His Royal Highness Prince Eric inherit the throne?

"Those stupid reporters think that, why do you think that, Delmar?"
Lampari XIII had just finished his sentence when he began to cough violently again.
Although winter has long passed, Lampari XIII's health has not improved much, and he still looks very weak.
Although you don't spend every day in your bedroom like in winter, you don't have much time to get out of your room.
"Deciding the heir to the throne concerns the entire kingdom, how can I be emotional. Whether it's Eric or Sevigny. It is still Miham, and the decision to let them take my place as king will ultimately depend on which of them can contribute more to the kingdom as a whole, and not by my personal preference. ”
De Mar nodded lightly, and then said: "But Your Majesty, I think Xu Yi is at least right in one thing, if you can determine the heir to the throne as much as possible, so that His Royal Highness Prince Eric will not fight with each other for the inheritance, whether it is for you." Or is it very good for them, and even for the whole kingdom. Why don't you know in the morning?"
"Are you blaming me?" said Lampari XIII with a slight smile, then sighed deeply. "Do you think I don't want to do this? But after all, the royal family is not like a small family like Xu Yi, and the heir is an extremely important decision that has too much to do with it. How can it be easy to determine the candidate. If his children are not capable enough, he can't still teach them the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and watch them destroy the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, right?"
"However, Xu can also hand over the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to someone else to manage. But you can't give the whole kingdom to anyone else. After all, this throne can only be inherited by one of your children. So......" Delmar paused. Gritting his teeth hard, as if he had made up his mind. "陛xià. Please make a decision as soon as possible. If it's too late, I'm afraid it will ......."
Lampari XIII looked at Delmar quietly for a moment, then shook his head slowly.
"Delmar, you never took the initiative to express your opinion on this matter before, why are you so active today?"
Delmar smiled bitterly and didn't answer.
Lampari XIII sighed again.
"Well, I see what you mean. Are you worried about my body? Do you think I can't last long?"
Delmar lowered her head deeply, and after a long time, she slowly raised her head again, but there were already two lines of hot tears on her face, and her voice was choked.
"陛xià...... I...... I'm watching you...... You're getting weaker day by day, and I can't think of anything I can do to save you. I'm really ...... It's really sad. I know that the most important thing in your mind is the kingdom as a whole, so I would love for you to make sure that this is the most important thing for the kingdom. Then let go of your worries and ...... Good ......."
"Have you spent your last days?" said Lampari XIII, smiling slightly, beckoning to Delmar and motioning for him to come over.
When Delmar came to his side, Lampari XIII suddenly raised his arm and threw it hard.
"Smack-"
Delmar covered her hot face and looked at Lampari XIII in dismay.
"Why? Am I already a dead man about to be buried in your opinion?"
Lampari XIII, who had always looked weak during this time, was like a lion who had been enraged, although still weak, but he was so powerful that people could not resist at all.
"I am the king of this kingdom! I do not need the mercy of others, nor am I entitled to be pitied! Since I am a king, I must bear the responsibility of a king! Choosing the most suitable heir for this kingdom is my last and most important duty, and I must fulfill this duty with all my might. So as long as I'm not dead, I'm going to have to think about it with all my might, understand?"
Delmar stared blankly at Lampari XIII for a moment before nodding slowly.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have offended you, and I ask for your forgiveness. ”
Lampari XIII snorted heavily and held out his hand to Delmar.
"Now that I've finished reading the matter on Sevigny's side, go and get the report from the Northern Province, and let me see what this kid Eric has been up to all this time. (To be continued......)
