When Howard said this, he suddenly realized something.

Glancing at Epstein, who was nodding at himself, Howard Sr. blinked and said to the others:

"You all go out, Epstein stays, I have something to tell you......"

Watching the rest of the clansmen leave the conference room, Howard immediately said to Epstein:

"Is it Konstantin?"

Epstein nodded and said:

"When Matthew had an accident, Konstantin went to see the Chinese.

Matthew had previously instructed Evenson to be burned at the stake against the Chinese, and Evenson failed and was burned to death by the pony.

If that's all there is to it, we still have a chance to explain it to the Chinese.

At most, it's just to hand over Matthew and let them dispose of it.

However, the fourth heir to the throne of our Guringburg family died at the door of the Chinese, and there had just been a death match inside.

No matter how you look at it, it was Matthew who found out that the demon fire Dogi he sent failed and couldn't bear the responsibility for the destruction of the family, so he chose to commit suicide.

The most troublesome thing is that Matthew's secretary Tom is still alive, but the person has disappeared, and I sent someone to find him.

Matthew is dead, and Chinese any more trouble, it will be thought that it was our Gringbor......"

Seeing Sir Howard take out his pipe and fill it with cigarettes, Epstein immediately took out a lighter and lit it for him.

Then he continued:

"Even if we take the initiative to reconcile with the Chinese now, he will think that our Gulingbao family is showing weakness.

If I were that Chinese, I would agree to settle first, and then do it while we let our guard down......"

Hearing Epstein's words, Howard fell silent.

After taking a hard puff of his pipe, he looked up at the old man in front of him, who was about his own age, and said:

"Then you can only find one of the five major forces to be a backer, right......"

At this point, Howard paused, then stretched out his palm and continued:

"The Capetian family has a high status and is the only one of the five major forces that is fixed.

However, they have long since declined, and for so many years, they have been hiding behind the Augustians, and they have barely survived until now by marrying the leaders of the Augustian religion in the past.

In terms of real power, I'm afraid it will be ranked after our Guling Castle.

The Pioneer Club of the French is also a long-established organization of Anomalous Beings.

Over the years, relying on the addition of new supernatural powers in Africa and Latin America, it has always ranked third among the five major forces.

It's a pity that they sheltered the Mad King back then, and they were squeezing out our Guling Fort openly and secretly, so they couldn't choose it.

The American Abyss Company and the RB Hedao Co., Ltd. are the five new forces that have come up over the years.

Abyss has won three consecutive sessions, and Hedao has also won two sessions.

However, their foundation is too shallow, and they will definitely step down within two terms.

At that time, our Gulinborg family will be even more embarrassed, and then we will be reduced to a third-rate organization and completely lose our competitiveness in the new world......"

Howard retracted a finger for each organization, and at the end of the day there was only one thumb left.

Looking at this lonely thumb, Howard sighed and said:

"Only Augustus remains, this Konstantin is such a terrible man......

Epstein, you go and contact the Temple, and say I'm going to visit His Majesty Augustus.

As the patriarch of the Gulinburg family, I will join the Augustan Cult and ask His Majesty to baptize me......

After being baptized, I will step down as the patriarch of the House of Gringbourg and be a little priest by the side of His Majesty the Head of August......"

Hearing the patriarch's compromise, Epstein couldn't help but say:

"Sir, maybe there's another way......"

"Epstein, my friend, please let me finish talking......

Here's what I'm going to do, and here's what you're going to do.

While I go to see the sect leader, you have to represent me to meet the Chinese named Fadu.

Tell him about someone stirring up trouble between us.....

I give you full power to represent the patriarch, and if necessary, you may make a verbal alliance with him in private. ”

After saying these few words, Epstein was stunned, he couldn't imagine that at this time, his patriarch would still have the heart to eat two heads.

At this point, Howard put his pipe in his mouth again and took a few puffs before realizing that the tobacco had been extinguished.

The fire was lit again, and the old man took a puff of cigarette, and after exhaling the smoke, he continued:

"I have a hunch that Fadu is here with a purpose, and this new world may cause an uproar......

Epstein, after I step down as patriarch, you will be the patriarch - don't speak, listen to me......

I know you're only seventh in line, and that's when I didn't make an heir.

Everything will be arranged before I step down as patriarch.......

Listen to me, and I'll pass on the message to you in Osgu.

After you become the patriarch, you have to encourage that Chinese to make trouble.

The bigger the trouble, the better, it is better to make the major forces in the New World reshuffle, and then our Gringborough family may have a chance to stand on the top again......"

At this point, Old Man Howard took another puff of his pipe, his eyes fixed on the air in front of him, and said to himself:

"Your Excellency Konstantin, I took your move.

Let's take a look at Chinese's chess moves......"

While Sir Howard was busy on his way to Augustus, Fadu led a few men to one of the most luxurious hotels in Bangkok.

Knowing that this mysterious and wealthy Chinese tycoon was going to stay, the hotel was ready.

The president of the hotel waited at the gate with several vice presidents, and when he saw Fadu's luxurious Rolls-Royce sedan driving over, the president went over in person, with a professional smile, and pulled the door for Fadu and others.

The president said with a non-standard Chinese: "Dear Mr. Fadu, on behalf of myself and all the staff of XX Hotel, please allow me to extend my most sincere welcome to the arrival of several people......

Your assistant has already said on the phone, you have chartered the fifty-fifth floor of the hotel.

The 55th floor includes one presidential suite and two VIP suites......

Allow me to take you to the 55th floor, please walk this way, there is an exclusive elevator on the 55th floor of our hotel......"

Yu Qingsheng never dreamed that he would live in the presidential suite one day.

Although his thoughts were still somewhat confused, after entering the presidential suite, it seemed that he could accept what Fadu had said about the Stranger and the New World.

Watching the pony send away the president of the hotel, Yu Qingsheng lay on the sofa and said to Fadu:

"Brother, you have so much money, did you use your abilities to change?

You can help me see if I have this talent for making money......"
