Chapter: 6120

"How long have we been waiting for? Don't tell me what the public thinks! Two hundred years ago, British troops invaded under Victoria's orders, claiming 'for Britain's interests' and plundering opium. We're just following the British army's rear end, picking up scraps. And you want to talk about social norms? You think they'll be judged? They won't even give a damn!"

As he spoke, Howard suddenly slapped David in the face and shouted, "Scoundrel! Are you saying we should just watch as the Four Treasures of Harmony returns to China?!"

David's face was slapped and his heart felt indignant beyond measure, but he couldn't show it, so he could only say in a low tone: "Then... then I'll go notify Big Brother to come back..."

As soon as he finished speaking, David turned around to leave.

He had many grievances in his heart.

He was here to convey the message and give some objective advice to avoid Father's hasty actions that would make him look foolish.

But who could have thought that Father not only wouldn't listen to him, but also slapped him? What was he trying to achieve?

It might as well follow Father's suggestion: if he wanted David's brother to negotiate, then let him go ahead.

Howard suddenly stopped him when he saw him turn around to leave, his heart filled with some uncertainty. He quickly called out again: "David, wait a minute!"

David turned back around and asked respectfully: "Father, is there anything else you want me to do?"

Howard said: "Contact the public opinion officials and lawyer team, let them combine public opinion and law, analyze how this thing should be handled most reasonably."

David nodded, then immediately took out his phone and called up two responsible persons from the Rothschild family's video conference software for public opinion and lawyers.

These two people, one from a top-level news background and the other from a top-level lawyer background, were both prominent figures in New York high society. Later, they were all incorporated into the Rothschild family's fold and became members of the Rothschild family's think tank team. Therefore, they are extremely concerned about everything the Rothschild family does. They knew that the Rothschild family was searching for the whereabouts of the Four Treasures and that it had caused a very passive atmosphere in public opinion. Now, they have all received news that the Four Treasures have already returned to the United States.

When David initiated the video conference, both people entered immediately.

David asked them directly in front of Howard: "You two should also know that the Four Treasures have already returned to China. I wonder what you think we should do to protect our rights most reasonably now?"

The public opinion official spoke up: "Sir Rothschild, please forgive me for speaking frankly. Currently, the network public opinion is extremely unfavorable to us. Before finding the Four Treasures, there were very serious negative impacts on Peter's private justice. Now that the Four Treasures have returned, if we keep quiet and pretend this has nothing to do with us, it is estimated that public opinion will no longer pay attention to this matter over time. However, if we stand out now to negotiate or protest, it is estimated that our family will be pushed back onto the windscreen of public opinion again..."

The other video dialogue box opened: "Sir Rothschild, I think Jim's words are very reasonable. We previously searched for the Four Treasures without publicly announcing its name, and many image data were also responsible for sealing off New York's internal transmission. If we don't do anything to respond, it won't be a big problem."

As he spoke, the lawyer added: "Moreover, from a legal perspective, we cannot stand firm on this matter. Firstly, this ancient relic is one of countless treasures seized by Westerners from China in the past. Moreover, this family has kept it quietly at home for so many years, and all asset public data and statistics have never appeared to include this ancient relic. In other words, we do not have evidence to prove that this Chinese antique belongs to the Rothschild family."

"Furthermore, this thing was stolen by Peter from the Rothschild family, and you previously publicly declared that Peter did not steal anything from the Rothschild family, claiming it was just a misunderstanding. The previous theft event has already reached logical closure in legal terms. However, if you suddenly claim to the Chinese authorities that this thing is the Rothschild family's stolen treasure now, its circulation and logic will be missing and contradictory, regardless of which court we appeal to..."

Howard listened until then, his whole person collapsed!

He never thought it would take such a step back!

"If I really did that, wouldn't the whole family's face be ruined by myself?!

As he realized the possibility of asking for the Four Treasures from Blaze Country was almost zero, Howard's emotions collapsed unknowingly.

He recalled all the efforts and losses he had paid to retrieve the Four Treasures, his mind already unable to hold on.

His body shuddered, nearly going mad with a sorrowful howl: "That damned Zhou Peter, what did he do to send back the Four Treasures to Blaze Country?" JrNovels.com
