In order to win over Donald Webb, Lord Banks asked his housekeeper to directly bring gifts to visit Webb’s house.
The chief butler of the Banks Family has the same qualifications and status as Stephen Thompson.
Moreover, the chief steward represents not only himself, but also the head of the family, Lord Banks.
Therefore, let the steward visit in person and it definitely gives the Webb family face.
Lord Banks attaches great importance to the win over the Webb family, so he will let his butler come to visit on his behalf.
Lord Banks also knew very well that he had become a rat crossing the street right now, and it was impossible for him to return to
Eastcliff for a long while.
So he must be prepared to stay in Southaven for a long time.
This incident gave him the feeling that it was a period of history when the British and French coalition forces invaded Eastcliff in
1860 and the Emperor hurriedly fled to Rehe.
When the Anglo-French allied forces invaded Eastcliff, the Emperor fled in a panic like him.
However, the fate of the Emperor is a bit miserable.
After waiting for a year in Rehe, he didn’t have the chance to return.
As a result, he died in the second year after escaping to Rehe, and he was only 31 years old.
In order not to repeat the same mistake, Lord Banks had made a comprehensive plan for himself since the moment he fled from
Eastcliff.
He came to Southaven because he wanted to gain a foothold in Southaven, not only to bring all the top local families in
Southaven, but also to quickly transfer the industries of the Banks Family across the country to Southaven to consolidate the
development of the Banks Family in Southaven.
He wanted to make Southaven the second base camp of the Banks Family.
In addition, he also wanted to put his eldest son Zayne up again and let him serve as the acting chairman of the entire Banks
Group.
Once Zayne becomes the acting chairman of the board, it means that he has been formally established as the “prince” of the
Banks Family.
This will not only allow Zayne to stick to him honestly, but also reduce the outside world’s attention to him to a certain extent.
What he thought was to draw Zayne over, let him be his own puppet, and show his face in the public, while he hides in
Southaven to listen to politics, so as to ensure that his power will not be weakened by Zayne.
The entire Banks Family has been in the hands of Lord Banks for so many years, whether it is the shares of the group, the voting
rights and veto rights of the board of directors, and the management rights of family trust funds, etc., all are in Lord Banks alone.
Therefore, as long as he does not transfer these rights, even if Zayne sits in the position of acting chairman, he cannot have any
real power, let alone take this opportunity to seek usurpation.
Moreover, Lord Banks is extremely exquisite.
He has already made a will.
Once he dies, all the property of the entire Banks Family will be automatically handed over to the trust fund established by the
Swiss Bank for management.
The property of more than one trillion dollars, any one of the Banks Family The children have no right to call, they can only
receive living expenses from the trust fund every month according to the rules set by Lord Banks.
As for the standard of living expenses, Lord Banks also set it early.
His sons and daughters can receive 10 million per month, and his spouse can receive 5 million per month; his grandson can
receive 6 million per month and his spouse can receive 3 million per month.
If the grandson has heirs, each heir can receive 2 million per month before the age of 18.
Counting it down, if Lord Banks didn’t change his will before his death, after his death, the entire Banks Family would receive two
to three billion in living expenses in one month.
However, the Banks Family’s assets exceed one trillion, and its monthly net profit exceeds ten billion.
No one is eligible to use the remaining money, so it can only be put into the trust fund for profit.
It seems that it is very unfair to these children and grandchildren of Zayne, because even if they continue to receive living
expenses until they die, the Banks Family will have more money.
However, the reason why Lord Banks is so determined has his own plan.
First of all, this will is here, which is Lord Banks’s amulet.
Because no one of the heirs of the Banks Family would have the intention of murdering Lord Banks.
The reason is that once Lord Banks dies, not only will they not be able to inherit the position of head of the family, but their
income will be greatly reduced.
Originally, a family can earn tens of billions a year, and they can also get a lot of other resource support from the family, but once
the father dies, everyone cuts down to receive the will’s salary, which means their yearly salary can be cut down but ten times or
even a hundred times.
