Chapter: 1754

Compared to the Ye family, the Su family has a comprehensive strength about 20 levels higher.

However, since both families have such a large financial foundation, the difference of 20 levels becomes an astonishingly huge gap in terms of wealth.

If Ye family wants to surpass Su family, their assets would need to increase by several hundred billion at least to have a chance.

Su family's scale is already stronger than Ye family's, and its development speed is naturally faster, so the gap between Ye family and Su family is actually widening slowly.

Now that we want to reverse the trend and catch up with Su family, it's not only difficult like climbing a mountain but also like a fairy tale.

Ye Zhongquan looked at everyone without speaking, and couldn't help but sigh: "Twenty years ago, when Longyan was still alive, Ye family almost surpassed Su family under his leadership. At that time, Longyan had formulated the national domination strategy, and all the big families in Yanjing believed that Ye family would surely surpass Su family and become the top of the nation......"

As he said this, Ye Zhongquan fell silent for a moment, his eyes filled with sadness: "But after Longyan left, you people are really not like one another......"

The eldest son, Ye Changkong, heard these words and became indignant: "Dad, if you're going to say that, then there's no point. You're always saying we're not like Longyan or not like Longyan, but Longyan's family was originally driven away by you. If you hadn't driven Longyan away, Ye family would have already achieved its goal of national domination."

"You......" Ye Zhongquan pointed at Ye Changkong in anger, wanting to berate him, but then he controlled himself and went back.

He sighed deeply and said to everyone: "The things of the past are just that - past. Let's focus on the present instead."

Ye Changkong asked: "What methods do you have to shorten our distance from Su family?"

Ye Zhongquan hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth: "Su family has always had many sons and grandsons. The old master of Su family has five sons and thirteen grandchildren, but it seems that only two granddaughters are left, one of whom is 22 years old this year and has reached marriageable age, while the other is still underage. These two granddaughters are like precious jewels in Su family's palm. If Ye family's descendants can form an alliance with Su family's granddaughters, it will definitely have a huge impact for Ye family."

"The eldest cousin, Ye Changming, spoke up: 'Dad, Su's granddaughter is extremely favored in Su's family. If we want to marry her, at least our own descendants should be of marrying age.'"

"Ye Changkong himself was Ye Changxun's son."

"Just then, Ye Changxun sighed and said: 'Changming, last year my sons Changfeng and Xiaohao had already agreed to marry a princess from the Norwegian royal family this summer. This news has almost spread throughout all of Yanjing, leaving no room for negotiation!'"

"Yes." Ye Changkong's cousin, Ye Chaofeng, spoke up: 'Su's fish Su Zhiyu, I had some contact with him before. The nature of that woman is cold and distant, few social gatherings, many invitations to national and international aristocratic gatherings were turned down by her. She never accepted any of them, and pursuing her is as difficult as climbing the sky, not to mention that I have a marriage contract myself. If I were to pursue her, Su's family would likely be able to see my intentions right away...'"

"One of Ye Changkong's cousins, Ye Changyun's eldest son, Xiaohao, could no longer hold back his excitement and spoke up: 'Grandpa, can't I try it?'"

"Ye Changxun looked at this ordinary-looking nephew and shook his head saying: 'Xiaohao, Su's family is already above us in terms of strength. Even if your brother Changfeng were the son-in-law of Su's family, you wouldn't be able to get into their eyes, let alone you.'"

"Ye Changyun looked somewhat displeased and said: 'Big brother, what you're saying doesn't make sense at all. Who says that Su's granddaughter has to marry someone else's descendant? Can't we say that your Xiaohao has this charm?'"

"Ye Changxun chuckled: 'Old three, if you don't like it, you can let Xiaohao try. I'm just worried that Xiaohao won't even get the chance to meet Su Zhiyu, which would be embarrassing for us.'"

"As he spoke, an idea suddenly occurred to him and a glint flashed in his eyes as he looked at Tang Sihai, who had been silent until then. He opened his mouth: 'Sihai, what do you think? If we were to let Changkong's son go and marry Su's granddaughter, would he agree?'"

"What a shocking revelation this was! It's just like saying Ye Changyun, right?

In fact, everyone had already known about Ye Changyu being alive since Ye Changyao allowed Tang Sihai to buy out the Dihua Group and gave it to Ye Changyu as a gift, asking him to return to his family.

Except for Old Three himself, everyone else was extremely cautious and even repelled in their hearts, fearing that he would return to Yanjing and compete with them for Ye's family assets and power.

Fortunately, Ye Changyu initially refused Tang Sihai's request and didn't return to the Ye family, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief and gradually relaxed their vigilance. JrNovels.com
