Chapter 1753
This "they" referred to the Second Master, the Third Master's family, the Yin Family, and the Kong Family.
"I didn't know that the help I could bring to the Emperor Family was because of Xavier and the three children." Chloe looked at Old Master. "Grandpa, in the past, did you think that I, as a granddaughter-in-law, was not qualified to marry into the Emperor Family?"
Mr. Emperor did not deny it and sighed. His eyes were full of the kindness of the elder. "It's not that I think you are not qualified, but after all, in Aman's words, the woman he likes is qualified. But if I don't have any other thoughts, it's a lie."
Mr. Emperor continued, "So when the Nangong family came to the Emperor Family in the past, I told you that you wanted to end that marriage with Aman to see if you were in love with each other."
If they didn't love each other enough and Aman's marriage couldn't help him and the Emperor Family, it wouldn't be a pity to end it.
Although he was scolded by Aman later!
Thinking that his grandfather was scolded by Aman at that time, Old Master felt very helpless. "But from the bottom of his heart, I like you very much, my granddaughter-in-law."
"Well, thank you for your kindness, grandpa," Chloe said with a smile. She appreciated Old Master's honesty.
"Hahaha, fortunately, I didn't do anything to separate you and Aman at that time. Otherwise, there wouldn't be the three lovely great-grandsons now, hahaha!" Mr. Emperor laughed. When he mentioned Liam, Lita, and Aman, he was really proud of himself.
"Yes, now the main family has become popular. Congratulations, Mr. Emperor." Lana said with a smile, "After all, in Mr. Aman's generation, he has the most children. I and Lita only have two children!"
"Not bad, not bad!" Mr. Emperor smiled and said to Chloe, "Chloe, you little girl, so I have to thank you! Your belly has won glory for your master's family!"
A drop of sweat dripped from the corner of Chloe's eyebrows.
In this case, should she really have a second baby with Aman and not let the public down?
She smiled awkwardly. "... Is that so? I didn't expect to be pregnant with a three-year-old baby. It was an accident."
"An accident is the will of heaven!" Mr. Emperor emphasized, "The main family doesn't have many children in my generation. Now, in Aman's generation, they finally have a counterattack!"
"A counter-attack?"
The corners of Chloe's eyebrows twitched.
I've never heard of... a counter-attack on the number of children.
However, Chloe finally knew that her identity as Princess Xavier and the three children she gave birth to had helped the master of the Emperor Family a lot and also helped Aman.
"Well, Old Master, the topic has been changed. This time, don't you want to tell Young Madam about the current situation of the Emperor Family?" Lana reminded him, "She also specially asked me and Lita to come here. Mr. Zack of the foundation is still waiting here."
Mr. Zack immediately smiled. "No worries. I've seen Mr. Emperor for a while. I'm worried about his health. Now I'm happy to see him."
"Yes, in short, I am happy to see Chloe." Old Master said with certainty, showing that he was very glad that he did not separate Aman from this granddaughter-in-law.
But he added, "However, we have to change the topic. After all, it's up to you to deal with the following things."
"Yes, Grandpa. Please say it." Chloe sat up straight. "As long as I can help you, I won't refuse."
Aman didn't come back.
She must do something for the Emperor Family on behalf of them.
"Just now, Chloe, you guessed that the reason why the relatives of the Tang family haven't taken any action so far is that Aman is promising. That's right." Old Master returned to the question. "But Aman's Emperor Group didn't become the largest company in the world from the beginning. Have you ever thought about the reason why the Emperor family’s status was so stable before?"
Seeing that Mr. Emperor still asked her, Chloe knew that he was going to ask her some questions.
Chloe glanced at Mr. Emperor, Lita and Lana next to her, and Mr. Zack of the Emperor Group's trust meeting.
As far as she knew from the previous news, the Emperor Group's trust agency was a family's legal agency, which was run by the Emperor Family and was an organization specifically responsible for managing the fund for the Emperor Family.
"I think it's because of the shares." Chloe guessed. "The shares of the Emperor Family must be the majority. In the board of directors, if the chairman or the supporters hold more than 50% of the shares, it should be able to decide anything."
He continued, "Now Grandpa's two younger brothers are still alive, and they didn't dispute about the shares. The Emperor family’s shares should be shared by the old master. The old master probably doesn't want his descendants to divide for the sake of the family's shares, so he let the main family occupy more than half of the shares. Therefore, the shares are the strongest bargaining chips of the main family!"
Most people would think that brothers should share things equally in order to get along well with each other.
In fact, it was not necessarily true.
If they were equally divided, it meant that everyone could raise their opinions or give up their power. Moreover, others might work together to occupy another person.
But if one of them occupied more than half of it from the very beginning and made it impossible for others to compete for it from the very beginning, then even if they had grievances, they had no ability to compete for anything important!
-This was an iron wrist policy of power!
In this way, Chloe felt that the old master of the Emperor Family must be an extremely powerful person. He would always put the family's interests first, and the family discipline of the Emperor Family was also the top priority of the family's interests!
Therefore, in order to protect one of the heirs of the main family, Ben had no choice but to order someone to shoot and sacrifice his wife and another son. That was understandable. They had been educated mainly by the family since they were young.
The reason why Aman did not take the path of marriage between the rich and the powerful was probably because of the death of his mother and brother, which caused him to reject the family policy, so he married a woman he wanted to marry.
After listening to Ben's words for a while, Ben might have regretted his decision.
"Chloe is indeed a smart woman. At least you have the ability to understand people's hearts and interests." Old Master sighed. "But you only guessed the right couple."
"Oh? Is there anything else wrong?" Chloe asked.
"The main family does hold a large portion of the shares, but not more than half," Mr. Emperor said, "At least from the beginning, the main family has less than half of the shares. After all, my two younger brothers are also the sons of the Old Master. He is not cold- blooded enough to completely ignore the feelings of the other two sons."
Chloe blinked and nodded.
But she noticed the beginning that Old Master had mentioned.
At first, he had less than half of the shares, but now... Could it be?
Mr. Emperor said to Mr. Yang, "This is Mr. Yang of the Emperor Group's trust agency. He is also my trusted subordinate. The Emperor Group's trust agency is a family's trust agency. It was founded by the old master back then. It is specially dedicated to managing the family's foundation, investment, or any other development. It is to ensure the foundation of the Emperor Family for generations to come..."
To put it bluntly, the family's business plan was just to prevent future generations from doing anything. Or, if they were too prodigal, their foundation would be ruined for several generations and they would be used as a means of insurance.
However, after the family owned a part of the shares or the foundation, the foundation could not interfere with how to deal with the family members.
But later, the descendants of the family would get a part of the dividends from this fund regularly.
No matter how incompetent or prodigal the descendants were, they would still get a part of the income from the foundation and would not reveal themselves on the streets.
However, the Emperor family’s business venture was founded by the Emperor Family. Therefore, the Emperor Family would have a part of the right to speak compared to some secret agencies in the outside world. For example, the Emperor Family could give some advice on how to invest in this fund!
"I heard it clearly." Chloe nodded.
"Mr. Zack, please tell Chloe about the shares that the Emperor Family has invested in the foundation." Old Master handed the message to Mr. Zack.
Mr. Zack came out and opened a contract between the Emperor Family and the foundation. He said, "Young Madam, the Old Master of the Emperor Family has transferred 30% of the shares to the foundation of the Emperor Group."
Thirty percent?
So many?
Chloe was shocked at once.
She had originally thought that the Emperor Family might have more than 50% of the assets, but now it seemed that there was definitely no more! There were already 30% of the people who had been transferred to the foundation!
