Chapter 1438: Successor system

Chapter 1438 Successor System
The area of ​​Eisley Castle is large, but there are not as many people as the Caroline Castle Manor.
After all, the number of vampires is small, and they don't like to live in groups like werewolves.
Catherine brought Ye Hao to a room. The room was big and had everything.
"You live here during this time, and Shalin is in charge of your daily life. Shalin, Ye Hao has any needs, you can satisfy him."
Sha Lin respectfully said, "Yes, miss."
"Your situation is quite special now, so you don't want to participate in the dinner at night. I will let Shalin prepare meals for you." Catherine checked her watch.
"My grandpa rests for at least four or five hours every time, and I will take you to see him in the evening."
Ye Hao nodded, and settled as soon as he came. Everything was subject to Catherine's arrangement.
Ye Hao sat on the sofa, his face looked a little uncomfortable when he looked at Catherine.
"Is there something wrong with this family meeting?"
Kathleen took a deep breath, and she sat opposite Ye Hao: "I just learned about the situation. That Edward had some tricks. In the past, 60% of the family supported him, but now 90% of them support him. ."
"Is there a reason for your engagement with me?" Ye Hao said.
Catherine looked at Ye Hao, and she smiled and said, "I won't regret my engagement with you. If I don't even have the right to choose whom to be with, then what is the meaning of my life."
"Then you can tell me why you are so persistent in being the head of the entire Asley family. I used to think you were only interested in rights, but I found that what you are interested in is not rights.
Is it related to your father? The relationship between the two of you is not very good. "Knowing yourself and the enemy will win all battles, Ye Hao needs to know as much information as possible.
Catherine was silent for a while, and she looked at Shalin next to her: "None of us had lunch. Go and prepare some afternoon tea for us."
"Yes." Shalin left the room.
Only Ye Hao and Catherine were left in the room.
Catherine looked at Ye Hao: "You are my fiancé, I will not hide anything from you.
You guessed it right. One reason why I am attached to the position of Patriarch is because of my father, but the bigger reason is because of my mother. "
"My mother was very sick back then. At that time, my father was competing with my uncle for the position of Patriarch of the Asley family. When he became Patriarch, my mother died of a serious illness."
Katherine's eyes were full of anger, and she clenched her fists: "From then on, I only hated him. I asked him why he didn't care about his mother's safety at the time. He would only say that I was young and there were some things I couldn't tell. I.
Finally, when I was pressed into adulthood, he agreed to me. As long as I can become the future successor of Patriarch Asley, he will tell me why.
And that Edward was a child born to another woman after my father. "
Ye Hao looked at Catherine, even people who lived five or six hundred would have their own obsessions.
"Then you choose the successor, how did you choose? Is there a specific process?" Ye Hao turned the topic off.
Catherine raised three fingers and said.
"It is divided into three processes. The first one is naturally a competition of strength. In fact, this is not important. As long as the difference in strength is not too great, there is no problem even if you lose.
Before Edward there was a level gap, but now he and I are both Duke level. Although you said earlier that his strength is a bit untrue, but we don't know the reason, outsiders will still think he is a Duke. "
At this time, Shalin brought her afternoon tea to come up.
After the coffee and some biscuits, bread and desserts were arranged, she returned to her original position and stood.
"The second is to tell the tribe about the contribution you can make to the family. This is more important. After all, everyone needs to know what benefits you can bring to the tribe by becoming the head of the family.
The first two rounds of the process are actually for the third round. The third round is for all blood families above the count of the family to vote by show of hands.
One vote for an earl-level kin is equal to one point, one vote for a marquis-level kin is equal to ten, and one vote for a duke-level kin is equal to one hundred points.
However, the past patriarchs and participants did not have the right to vote, and apart from that, our Assley family has no other Duke-level vampires, so we don’t have to worry about the Duke-level 100 points.
The final decision to determine who is the successor of the Ashley family is to see who has the most votes. "Catherine said.
Ye Hao rubbed his chin. A Duke-level vote is equivalent to 100 points. If you can get a Duke-level helper, it would be an advantage.
After all, there is only one vote for the earl class.
Fortunately, the Asley family has no other duchy except for the Patriarch and former Patriarch, as well as Edward and Catherine.
In other words, a Marquis-level blood family with a vote equivalent to ten is very important.
"Then Ashley family, how many marquis-level blood races are there in total?" Ye Hao asked.
"There are eight marquis-level kinsmen. Count-level kinsmen are forty-two. Now it is estimated that the total number of votes will be 122.
In other words, Edward and I, as long as anyone can score 61 points, he can win this succession battle. "Catherine said.
Ye Hao squinted his eyes: "Sixty-one points. It seems that the decisive number of votes is still on the eight marquis-level vampires.
Among those eight, you can be sure that some of them can vote for you. "
"One." Catherine said.
Ye Hao was stunned for a moment, and he said with a laugh: "It looks like your relationship in the family is not very good."
"I left the family as an adult, and in their eyes, they liked that Edward even more. And I was just an outsider."
Catherine's eyes were cold: "But this time, I want those people to surrender under the feet of my outsider."
It really is a queen temperament.
"If that's the case, then it seems that we need to canvass for votes. How about bribing them with bloodstones, I think no vampire can resist the temptation of bloodstones." Ye Haoxu said with eyes.
"That's why, I want to invite you. How many bloodstones you can take out, I may not be able to pay you enough now. But I will pay you back in the future." Catherine looked at Ye Hao.
Ye Hao is her trump card here.
He now has more than four thousand skill points.
And to deal with these Marquis-level blood races, presumably the Marquis-level bloodstone should be enough.
But a bloodstone of Marquis level requires 1,000 skill points.
With all his calculations, Ye Hao could only exchange 4,000 skill points at most, which was a bit too expensive.
"If it is a Marquis-level bloodstone, I can only take out no more than four now. Earl-level bloodstone, about eight." Ye Hao said.
Catherine frowned, but afterwards she was relieved. After all, it is a precious bloodstone. Although I don't know how Ye Hao got it, it is impossible to have a large number: "Four bloodstones, each one is estimated You can buy a marquis-level vampire.
But this is at most four people, which still has a certain degree of danger. "
Ye Hao thought for a while, and he leaned into Kathleen's ear and said, "Then we are like this... this way... this way, what do you think. If we do it this way, we might get a lot of support."
Catherine's eyes lit up and she looked at Ye Hao: "But if that's the case, can you really provide so many bloodstones?"
"If it is done according to what I said just now, I can guarantee to provide enough bloodstones." Ye Hao promised.
