Heir of the Richest Man

1Huo Zhenxuan was so angry that he fell down before he could even catch his breath. When he woke up again, he was in a hospital bed.     3

    

Huo Family Elder Xiao was all in the ward. Seeing that he had woken up, everyone quickly went up and asked him how he was feeling.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan closed his eyes and said weakly, "I'm fine. Everyone else will go out. Zhengang, Zhenguo, Qichen and Qiming will stay. "    

    

Everyone obeyed and quickly left. Only Huo Qichen and Huo Qiming stayed behind.    

    

Hodong had five children, three sons and two daughters. His eldest son, Huo Zhenxuan, his second son, Huo Zhengang, and his youngest son, Huo Zhenguo.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan, as the current Patriarch of Huo Family, also had five children. Huo Qichen was the eldest son and Huo Qiming the youngest.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan clearly had something important to say to keep the four of them here.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan didn't open his eyes as he said softly, "Sit down."    

    

The four of them immediately sat down.    

    

Huo Zhengang asked with concern, "Big brother, how do you feel? Would you like a doctor to come over and examine you again? "    

    

Huo Zhenxuan shook his head and replied, "No need. I left the four of you behind to inform you all that I want to fight to the death with those surnamed Zhao! Endure like this isn't a solution. That kid surnamed Zhao is too ruthless. I'm worried that he will still attack us in the future. Rather than sit still and wait for death, it was better to take the initiative. However, this is, after all, a huge matter that concerns the fate of our Huo Family. I cannot make the decision on my own, I want to hear the opinions of the four of you. "    

    

The four of them looked at each other, none of them daring to speak first. Was this fact too important? It wasn't something that they could handle, so it was safer not to say anything.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan didn't get a response, so he said, "ZhenGang, you have the highest seniority. Tell me first."    

    

Huo Zhengang's heart tightened as cold sweat broke out on his back. He quickly replied, "Big brother, the truth is too big. It has exceeded my capabilities. I think we should let third brother and his two nephews talk. "    

    

Huo Zhenguo immediately replied, "I think it's better if Big Bro and his two nephews make the decision. We always follow Big Bro's lead. Whatever big brother says, we will do. "    

    

Huo Zhenxuan was so angry that he almost died. He wanted to hear their opinions, but they were here kicking the ball.    

    

Huo Qichen immediately said, "Dad, I think it's better to think things over. We still have not figured out each other's background and strength. We can't just fight them to the death. "    

    

Huo Qichen's words were understandable, after all, his Huo Family would soon be his. If Huo Family were to fight to the death with Zhao Family, regardless of the outcome, the Huo Family he received would definitely not be as strong as it was now.    

    

Huo Qichen was against it, but some agreed that it was Huo Qiming on the other side.    

    

According to Chinese tradition, important positions such as the family head position are inherited by the eldest son. If there were no waves in the Huo Family, the next Patriarch position would definitely belong to Eldest Brother Huo Qichen.    

    

However, if the Huo Family and the Zhao Family clashed, then it would disintegrate, and Huo Qiming would be able to share a portion of the family property. Even if he received less and less of the property, it belonged to him entirely. After all, it was better than all the other industries being managed by Huo Qichen. He could only take out the living expenses, right?    

    

Therefore, Huo Qiming immediately said, "Dad, I agree with you. We can't just wait to die out of fear. That brat obviously didn't think about letting us go. If we continue to endure this, then sooner or later, he will be ready and definitely destroy our Huo Family. The enemy was strong, but not terrifying. What was terrifying was that they didn't dare to resist and just sat there, waiting for death. If they fought it out, half of them would have a chance of winning. If we don't go all out and warm up the frog, then sooner or later, our strength will be weakened to a certain extent, and we won't be able to resist even if we want to. "    

    

Since Huo Qichen and Huo Qiming had different opinions, Huo Zhengang and Huo Zhenguo didn't dare to express it.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan didn't comment on his two sons' opinions. Instead, he asked Huo Zhengang, "Zhengang, tell us your opinion. You are not to shirk, you must tell me the truest thoughts in your heart. "    

    

Huo Zhengang was helpless. He didn't dare to mess with her now that things had come to this point. Thus, he replied, "Since Big Brother wants to hear my opinion, then I will say it. Regardless of right or wrong, Big Bro, don't blame me. "    

    

Huo Zhenxuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, there's no right or wrong. I just want to hear your opinions."    

    

"Alright, then I'll say it. I think what he said was right. If the opponent is strong, then we shouldn't be afraid. How do you know we're no match for them if you don't try? I know that I will die if I continue to endure like this, but why didn't I stand up and fight back? " Huo Zhengang said firmly.    

    

Actually, to put it bluntly, Huo Zhengang also wanted to take advantage of the chaos to obtain benefits for himself, which was why he supported resistance.    

    

Now, only Huo Zhenguo remained silent. Huo Zhenxuan said to him, "Zhenguo, tell us the truth."    

    

Huo Zhenguo saw that he couldn't avoid it anymore, so he braced himself and replied, "Big brother, I agree with Qichen's view. He shouldn't act rashly until he had figured out the true strength of his opponent. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and be invincible in a hundred battles. We should first ascertain each other's identities, and then discuss whether or not we should fight to the death with our opponents. "    

    

"Then do you agree to resist, or do you agree to endure?" Huo Zhenxuan continued to ask.    

    

Huo Zhenguo was more tactful. He replied, "That may not be the case, but it depends on the actual situation. If we can clearly defeat each other, then of course we have to resist. If the opponent is too strong, and we know that we cannot defeat them, then there is no need for us to act impulsively. "    

    

Huo Zhenxuan smiled and said, "Sure, I understand your opinions now. You can all go back, and I'll talk to you when I've made up my mind. "    

    

The four quickly stood up and bowed to Huo Zhenxuan in farewell.    

    

On the other side, Zhao Qian was browsing through the mail. These messages were all feedback from Zhao Fu An, who was a spy in Huo Family.    

    

After Zhao Qian finished reading, he sent a reply message to each of them, informing them to be prepared and to attack Huo Family at any time.    

    

After three days, Huo Zhenxuan returned home from the hospital.    

    

He had been thinking very thoroughly these past few days. As the head of the family, he should work hard for the honor of the family. Zhao Qian's actions were already a serious threat to Huo Family's honor, he had to fight for Huo Family's dignity.    

    

Thus, Huo Zhenxuan, in the name of the Huo Family Patriarch, convened the Family Assembly.    

    

According to the traditions and rules of the Huo Family, when the Patriarch meets in the name of the Patriarch, everyone must unconditionally attend the Clan Assembly. At least the head of every household must be present, and other male members of the family must decide whether or not to come, as the case may be.    

    

The Clan Assembly would be held in the great hall of Huo Family, and there would be a total of 26 people present.    

    

Huo Zhenxuan didn't waste any time, he went straight to the point, "The reason I gathered everyone here today is to inform you that I have decided to fight to the death for the honor of the family and Zhao. I hope that everyone in the family will do their best for the honor of the family and for your future. "
