After leaving the Wildenstein building, Margaret rode in the same car with her two younger brothers for the first time ever. But even after the limousine had been on the road for two minutes, the atmosphere in the car was still unusually gloomy. Everyone was silent and unwilling to speak. They all looked out of the window with ugly expressions.
Then, the youngest among them, Roggio, asked in a puzzled tone, "I'm curious. Why did Father call Dwight Payton over at this time?"
"You still call him Father? He might not even treat us as his children. "
Cleo Wildenstein laughed coldly. "That Mr. Payton has helped that bastard a lot, and he has done his best to nurture him. Today is obviously the time for him to reap the rewards. "
Margaret sighed slightly. Just as she was about to say something, her mobile phone rang. Margaret didn't pick it up. Instead, she pointed at a small table beside her. The water in a glass immediately flew up. A person's head was quickly formed in front of them.
"Charlie!"
Margaret snorted. Her eyes were filled with strong dissatisfaction, "I thought I couldn't get through to you."
"Actually, I really don't want to return your call, Margaret. Don't you know what's going on in the Wildenstein group? "
The 'head' also replied in a similarly impolite tone, "Purge, sweep! I can only think of these words now. Your father was merciless. In less than an hour, he had sent out 345 letters of dismissal and transfer orders.
This is only what I know, everyone. There might be more than that. "
Margaret's breathing became heavy. She clenched her fists again.
How could she not know what was going on in the company? During this period of time, some of her direct subordinates, as well as many of the company's management who were close to her, were all purged by Kang Xiuli. Some of them were directly kicked out, while others were transferred to idle positions.
Kang Xiuli's methods were domineering, decisive, cold, and cruel. He didn't leave any room for negotiation.
"This is why I came looking for you, Charlie! Is your council of elders just going to let him do whatever he wants? The Wildenstein family has lost its balance. Is this what you want to see? "
"I know, of course I know. No one in the family wants to see this —"
"But the current situation is that the company's board of directors and HR department are useless!"
Margaret's voice was filled with resentment. "You chose to stand on his side."
"It's part of it."
The 'head' shook slightly. "He bribed some of them with the positions that you vacated. Then, strangely and inconceivably, several elders from the radical faction of the family also stood by his side. "
"Radical?" Margaret furrowed her brows in confusion.
"Those people, led by Harry, were supposed to be supporters of Philip the First. Can you imagine? A bunch of xenophobic people who dream of restoring the glory of the Hohenstaufen family are actually together with Conxiuli. "
The people in the limousine couldn't help but look at each other. This was indeed beyond their comprehension.
"I don't know why. Maybe they saw the future in Andre Lee Wildenstein? There is indeed such a thought in the family now. If we can gain the loyalty of the 'Blood-eyed Angel' Robert Yvonne, then our family will be glorious for the next few hundred years. Unlike now, we can only entrust the burden of the family's survival to our ancestor. "
"Kang Xiuli has already made a proposal in the council of elders to promote André to the first place in the succession list. This has received the support of many people, and I can't stop it."
"Also, after Philip the First signed the contract, Kang Xiuli already has at least 42% of the company's shares. As long as some of the elders stand by his side, he will be able to firmly control the management of the company. So, do your best, everyone. "
"My friends and I don't want to see you fall. But for now, apart from some financial resources that we can provide, we can't give you any more support. After leaving the Wildenstein Corporation, you won't lose everything, right? "
When the "head" turned back into liquid and flowed back into the cup, the car returned to silence.
After pondering for a long time, Margaret looked up at her two brothers and said, "It's time for us to save ourselves, my stupid brothers. In the war in half a year, we must defeat Kang Xiuli no matter what! If possible, it would be best to let him rest in the family cemetery forever. This is a war to the death, and I hope that you will join hands with me and do your best! "
Crew's face was gloomy, and he didn't say anything. Rodrio frowned. "Is there a need to do this? I think as long as we sincerely apologize, even if father won't forgive us, he won't kill us. "
"Give up your fantasies, idiot!"
Crew sneered. "The old man can't do anything to me, but there's still André. Are you sure that nephew of ours won't explode our heads for his mother and grandmother? "
Seeing that Rodrio was speechless, Crew looked at his sister. "So what do you think we should do first? Margaret, who thinks she's smart. "
"First of all, we have to find something for them to do. We can't let them continue to grow in strength in half a year."
Margaret thought and said in a cautious tone, "It just so happens that I know some friends in the Dark World who can help. They also need some resources from the World of Light."
"And the Dragon Witch Cult."
Crew looked equally solemn. "It's best not to let their war stop. The Dragon Witch Cult is already at a disadvantage. We have to find a way to provide them with some help."
…
When Li Mochen took the plane back to the Wings of the Alliance, he saw Ms. Christy Braid's owl again. The latter brought him a certificate of title issued by a federal court in America. Dozens of buildings and real estate under the name of the Benedict family, as well as the shares of the Atlantic Intercontinental Bank, were all transferred to the name of Li Mochen.
Although Lady Braid took sides with the Benedictines and Philip I, she was a very honest person.
This time, the New Continent Association of Mages was responsible for taking back the various certificates of title of the Benedict family and destroying them. Then, someone inside the government directly changed the title documents.
Several relevant government agencies set up a series of documents from top to bottom to prove that these properties belonged to him, so there was no need for property gift taxes.
They even concocted a lawsuit out of thin air, and the verdict was that the Benedict family had caused Li Mochen huge financial losses due to their breach of business contracts. They had to compensate all the properties in Atlanta and Macon, as well as the Atlantic Intercontinental Bank, to the plaintiff. This completely cut off future trouble and prevented the Benedict family from trying to take back their properties in the form of a lawsuit in the future. And Li Mochen only needed to pay a few million gold duns to the court as a handling fee after such a thing really happened.
Then, before Li Mochen could adapt to the fact that he had stepped into the ranks of the richest people in America, he received a huge sum of money from Michelle Medici. The total was 4.5 billion gold duns, which was the income from the sale of the captured ships.
Although it was gray income that could not be used in the right way, the money in his account made Li Mochen very excited.
