”Are you referring to the head of the Rothschild family?”
Upon hearing Don Albert’sment, Charlie Wade furrowed his brow and replied, “Are you talking about Walter and his father?”
”Yes!” Don Albert affirmed, nodding enthusiastically. He added with a smirk, “That’s the American who poisoned White’s father, leading to his kidney failure. What a despicable person! Didn’t he and his father always im to be part of the Rothschild lineage?”<fn32d0> Get full chapters from FindN0vel</fn32d0>
Charlie Wade waved his hand dismissively and stated, “They are not from the Rothschild family. It’s impossible for a true Rothschild to bear the surname Hogwitz.”
After a moment of contemtion, Charlie Wade continued, “The surname Hogwitz likely has Jewish origins. They might be distant rtives of the Rothschilds.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Charlie Wade’s mind. “I think I’ve figured it out. This Steve hase to Aurous Hill searching for his father and son. His father has just recovered and wants to assert his position as the n leader for a few more years. He may be trying to curry favor with those rtives.”
Don Albert interjected eagerly, “Master Wade, if what you say is true, this kid is here to challenge you! What if we set up a Hongmen Banquet, give him avish meal tomorrow, and then take him directly to the dog farm to keep himpany with those two men?”
Charlie Wade chuckled and replied, “No, Steve is the second-inmand of the Rothschild family, akin to a prince in ancient terms. This Hogwitz is likely the child of an old princess who married into another family, which means they aren’t closely rted. If they truly had a close connection, it would be unlikely for her to be held in your dog farm for so long without the Rothschilds making an effort to find her.”
Don Albert nodded in agreement. “That’s a valid point. However…”
He quickly added, “Master Wade, since this kid is looking for someone, he might actually locate the head of the dog farm! If he turns against you, wouldn’t that spell trouble for the future?”
Charlie Wade smiled confidently, “Every dog in the farm is ounted for; even if Steve tried to y hardball, he wouldn’t dare cross me.”
He then adopted a more serious demeanor and stated, “Since they are here, let’s not act foolish or timid. Prepare a business vehicle that’s discreet. Tomorrow during dinner, I’ll ask Steve about his intentions. If he’s really here to see the father and son, we’ll get him into the car right after dinner, take him to visit the dog farm, and let him meet Walter and his father. I want to see if he dares to speak out after that.”
Don Albert nodded vigorously, “Absolutely! Themercial vehicles used by my underground casinos to transport guests are all discreet and will not attract attention. I’ll arrange one for the asion.”
”Great,” Charlie Wade replied with a slight smile. “What is Master Hong Tian up to?”
Don Albert responded, “Master Hong Tian is currently teaching martial arts at the training hall.”
Charlie Wade nodded and instructed, “Please inform Master Hong Tian that I’ll be waiting for him in the general manager’s office.”
”Understood!” Don Albert replied. “Master Wade, please head to the office, and I’ll notify Master Hong right away.”
The Champs Elysees Hot Spring Hotel, designed to amodate hundreds of guests and staffed by numerous employees, is currently closed to the public. It now serves primarily the martial arts students and their support staff, leaving many of its rooms and facilities empty.
After some time in the general manager’s office, Hong Changqing, dressed in a Tang suit, quickly approached the door. After knocking and receiving Charlie Wade’s permission, he entered with enthusiasm. “Master Wade, it’s been a while since you’ve been here to guide us in our work!”
Charlie Wade was momentarily taken aback, then joked, “Master Hong Tian just returned to the country not long ago, but I didn’t expect him to adapt to the local scene so quickly.”
”No, no, no,” Hong Changqing quickly countered, waving his hands. “Master Wade, I believe you possess exceptional talents. It’s a privilege and an opportunity for me to learn from you directly.”
Seeing his sincerity, Charlie Wade humbly replied, “Master Hong Tian, my knowledge of martial arts is quite limitedpared to yours. You have extensive theoretical and practical experience, and you’ve trained many disciples in Taizhen Taoism. You are undoubtedly an expert in teaching. I’m not qualified to advise you on your teaching methods.”
