Anna asked, "What about the Seven Small Families? Don't they each have considerable influence too?"
"The Seven Small Families?"
Xu Hao chuckled lightly and said, "To ordinary people or other powers, the Seven Small Families might seem significant. In front of the Four Great Families, they are nothing. These families either band together for survival or attach themselves to one of the great families. None of them is truly independent, so they cannot control any district on their own."
"I see. To achieve the goal of unifying Huadu City, the main thing is to integrate these major families. As for the smaller families, once the major families are unified, the smaller ones will naturally become vassals, and they are not a concern at all," Anna nodded and said, "But if that's the case, why still make a move against the Cao Family? Logically, if you defeat the strongest of the Wu family, the other families would concede, right?"
