At this time, there was a knock on the door, and his eldest son, Steve Rothschild, spoke respectfully outside the door: "Father, can I come in?"

Howard was startled for a moment, then closed his eyes and sighed silently, and then said: "Come in."

Steve pushed the door in and carefully closed the door from the inside. He looked at Howard and said hesitantly: "Father..."

Howard glanced at him and saw that he had nothing to say, so he asked coldly: "What's the matter? Tell me."

Steve hesitated for a moment and then said: "Father... during the meeting just now, you said that whoever can find the Sifang Baozhuang will become the heir of the family..."

Howard nodded silently and said calmly: "I said that, what's wrong?"

Steve said with full of grievance: "For so many years, the Rothschild family has maintained the tradition of the eldest son succeeding to the throne, and has been arranging the order of succession. If you suddenly announced this decision today, wouldn't it violate the family rules? ��

Howard snorted coldly: "Rules? If the Sifang Palace is lost, Rothschild's name will lose its glory! This is the key to the family's survival. In front of it, rules don't even count!"

After that, Howard stood up and said angrily: "Whoever can get back the Sifang Baozhu can ensure that the family continues to prosper! He is definitely the number one contributor to the family! It is reasonable and natural for him to be the heir to the family head!"

Steve begged: "Father, since you ascended to the throne, I have been the first heir of the Rothschild family for so many years. My eldest son, Royce, your eldest grandson, is the Rothschild. The second heir of the family, our father and son have received the training and education of heirs for so many years. After so many years of hard work, if some lucky bastard accidentally found the Sifang Baozhuang somewhere, wouldn't it be the result of so many years of hard work by our father and son? All in vain? This...this is so unfair..."

Howard looked at Steve's aggrieved and painful expression, was silent for a moment, and then said: "Steve, in the face of a huge family crisis, I want to reward the brave man. Besides, I have already said my words, and there is no way I can take them back." .�

Steve hurriedly said: "Father...you..."

Howard stretched out his hand to interrupt Steve's words, looked at him and said calmly: "You are my eldest son, I should give you a chance, so I can tell you everything. I think Sifang Baozhuan has a high probability of We are still at Zhou Peter�s house, and everyone else can follow them wherever they go to look for the Sifang Baobang. If you want to have a better chance of winning, just focus your energy on Zhou Peter�s house.�

As he said that, he added: "I have already sent a large number of troops to secretly keep an eye on the Zhou family. You can go over and keep an eye on it. If they can find the Sifang Baozhuang in Zhou Peter's house, the credit will be on your head. In that case, you can still First in line to succeed.�

Steve's despairing heart suddenly lit up with hope again.

He asked excitedly: "Father, is everything you said true?"

Howard nodded slightly and said, "Steve, to be honest, you are my first child and the most beloved child in my heart. I also hope that you can seize this opportunity and inherit my position legitimately."

As he spoke, Howard squinted his eyes and reminded: "The more times like this, the more important it is for you to take the lead, charge forward, make achievements that no one can match, show others, and let everyone have nothing to say about you! My good son, the opportunity to make a meritorious deed has come!�

Steve was a little affected, clenched his fists and said firmly: "Don't worry, father, I will do my best!"

At this moment, near the Zhou family manor.
