Volume 4 Chapter 10 - Explicit stand (1/2)

Xu Yi didn’t hesitate at all as he nodded with a faint smile, “Yes.”

Hearing Xu Yi’s response, the reporters broke out in an uproar.

A bunch of arms were raised under the stage.

“Chairman Xu, are you certain you want your daughter as your sole heir?”

“Chairman Xu, when you mention your sole heir, does that mean that you won’t leave any family property to any family members other than your daughter?”

“Chairman Xu, if you have a son, will you really not consider letting him inherit your property?”

“Chairman Xu……”

……

When the excited mood of the reporters fell and they calmed down again, everyone stared at Xu Yi. He gave a smile and asked back, “Why are you asking this? She is my daughter, isn’t it right for her to be my successor?”

“The key point is sole!” A reporter under the stage shouted, “Chairman Xu, the meaning of sole, does it mean that you’re not planning on giving any family property to any of your other children?”

“I think that your understanding is a bit different.” Xu Yi shook his head, “Sole inheritor means that my daughter is the only person to inherit my title. As for my property…..that is a different matter.”

“Title?” The reporters were stunned, “It isn’t related to property? What about the title of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s chairman? Is that also unrelated?”

Xu Yi looked at the reporter who asked this with a confused gaze.

“The Frestech Chamber of Commerce doesn’t belong to me, why would my children inherit the position of chairman? Not to mention that even if the Frestech Chamber of Commerce belongs to me, the chairman position should belong to someone capable. If my children aren’t good with business, could it be that I should watch the Frestech Chamber of Commerce decline in their hands?”

The reporters thought about it and felt that Xu Yi was reasonable. But this didn’t follow the traditions of the Sines Continent.

According to tradition, for Xu Yi who had absolute control of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, he wouldn’t be willing to give it to anyone else.

No matter what, he would train his successor as the next chairman or he would secretly control the Frestech Chamber of Commerce

But from Xu Yi’s attitude, it seems like he would use the second method.

After all, if his children inherit his title, they would be nobles.

His children might not be special like Xu Yi, being able to be a noble and a merchant, so secretly controlling the company was the best method.

Thinking of this, the reporters understood.

However, after thinking this through, they thought of more problems.

“Chairman Xu, you said that your daughter would inherit your title, why didn’t you consider leaving it for your son?” A reporter asked, “There are many people who say that you are showing your support for her highness Seveni by doing this, is this true?”

This question was what all the reporters really cared about.

If Xu Yi’s answer was that he wanted to officially demonstrate that he was showing his support for her highness Seveni, it would meant that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce would be entering her highness Seveni’s camp.

Although Xu Yi didn’t do this, everyone thought this. If Xu Yi didn’t show his stand, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce could change stands at any time, which would mean that they would have buffers for many things.

If Xu Yi showed his stance now, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce would find it hard to change. Xu Yi doing this would be equivalent to betting on her highness Seveni.

If her highness Seveni couldn’t take the throne in the end and his highness Eric became king, one could imagine the results waiting for Xu Yi and the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.

So although Xu Yi was just setting his daughter as his sole inheritor, which seemed like a private matter, because of Xu Yi’s sensitive identity and the importance of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, this wouldn’t be just a family matter because there were many factors.

How could Xu Yi not see the ideas the reporters have and understand the significance of what they were asking? But he made this choice after careful thought, so naturally he wouldn’t panic when faced with this question.

“First, I don’t have a son now.” Xu Yi said with a faint smile, “Second, if Still and I have another crystallization of our love and it is a son, since I have already decided one my successor, I won’t change it. Because the more important a problem is, the more you can’t go back on it, or it won’t be good for anymore. I hope that our children can live in harmony and I’m not willing to see them be dissatisfied with each other or even feud with each other because of their inheritance.”

The eyes of the reporters all opened wide as they filled with shock.

“Chairman Xu, can I take these words as blaming the king?” A reporter couldn’t help asking in a loud voice.

Xi Yi gave a chuckle and spread his hands, “This is your understanding, it isn’t related to me.”

The reporters didn’t pay attention to Xu Yi’s vague words, they just wrote what Xu Yi had said word for word in their books.
