Smith was in his study, writing a letter to his big brother. He wanted to tell his big brother about Zhao Hai's situation in more detail. They wanted to use their own strength to change the family's attitude towards Zhao Hai.
Smith knew very well that Zhao Hai was the most important person to his family. Everything else was secondary. How much profit could the huoding fish bring to the family? That money was nothing compared to Zhao Hai. If he could use all the income of Tianshui city to exchange for Zhao Hai's loyalty, Smith would do it without hesitation. However, it was obvious that that was not possible.
Smith knew very well that money alone was not enough to move someone like Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai seemed to like money, but he earned every penny he had. Even when he robbed Duke Ryan, he did it with his own ability.
