In the main hall of the Li family headquarters, Li Yuan sits at the head, his second uncle Li Quan sits at the lower left seat, the great elder sits at the lower right seat, and there are several others, including elders and cadre-level members of the Li family.
There are already more than a hundred people coming this time, and the only two people who are qualified to inherit the position of head of the family are Li Tian and Li Mi.
When Li Tian entered the main hall, he first saluted the elders, and then said respectfully, "Li Tian pays homage to the head of the family, Li Yuan, and the second uncle Li Quan."
"There are no need for common etiquette." Li Yuan showed a peaceful smile and motioned to Li Tian to stand aside.
Also coming with Li Tian this time were Li Bo and Xiang Tianhao.
At this time, a person suddenly came to Li Tian and said with a smile, "Master Li, long time no see."
Li Tian saw the person coming clearly and was surprised, "Uncle Long, why are you here too."
Hearing this, Long Zhi said, "Master Li's memory is really bad. I have now entered the Presbyterian Church and become an elder of the Li family."
After hearing this, Li Tian just remembered that last time he went to the casino with Long Zhi, he vaguely mentioned it to his father Li Yuan and asked him to promote Long Zhi. Unexpectedly, Long Zhi had a lot of skills and directly entered the Presbyterian Church.
.
"I have known about Uncle Long's strength a long time ago. First of all, I would like to congratulate Uncle Long on his promotion to elder."
"Haha, without Master Li's promotion, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today." Long Zhi said, but his face suddenly became serious and his voice lowered, "Master Li, are you sure about the selection of the successor to the family head this time?"
"I'm still sure. It's easy to beat this guy Li Mi."
Long Zhi shook his head and whispered, "Master Li, you underestimate Li Mi too much. I am in the Presbyterian Church and know more about things. At least half of the people in the Presbyterian Church have publicly expressed their support for Li Mi. Even the elders
The elder also came forward to express his position."
"Even the Great Elder supports Li Mi?"
This time, Li Tianzhen was really shocked. The great elder had a good relationship with his father Li Yuan, and Li Tian was also very popular with the great elder when he was a child.
In the Presbyterian Church, no one has as much authority as the great elder.
While thinking about it, Li Tian suddenly paused, "A few days ago, my father once told me that the great elder supports me. Unexpectedly, just a few days later, he turned to Li Mi."
Long Zhi sighed, "No wonder the Great Elder, Li Mi now not only has the support of the Yu family and the Furuwu family, but also the shadow of the All-Union Chamber of Commerce."
The scale of the Quanlian Chamber of Commerce is not much worse than that of the Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce, and both parties are also competitors.
In fact, Li Tian didn't know that the headquarters of the All-Union Chamber of Commerce was in the neutral camp, and Li Mi had a close relationship with the All-Union Chamber of Commerce, so it was reasonable to get support from the other party.
However, this can explain why the great elder abandoned Li Tian and supported Li Mi.
Everything can be summed up in two words, that is "profit."
In an era when interests are paramount, the Li family pays more attention to interests than other families. No matter how much the elder thinks highly of Li Tian and likes Li Tian, he still chooses to succumb to the temptation of interests.
Li Tian secretly clenched his fists. If Li Mi is really allowed to become the successor of the family head, the "change of the family" that Li Tian pursues will come to nothing.
Amidst the discussion and noise, there was a sudden burst of footsteps outside the door. The door was pushed open. Li Mi stepped in first, followed by four people.
Yu Hui, Yu Bai, and Li Tian have already met. Among the other two, one has shrewd eyes and a businessman's temperament. Needless to say, everyone knows that this person may be from the All-Union Chamber of Commerce.
Another middle-aged man exudes the aura of having been in a high position for a long time. He should be the current head of the Furuya family.
The appearance of Li Mi and others immediately silenced the entire Li family.
Li Quan, the first person from the lower left, immediately stood up and said with a satisfied look, "Li Mi, you are here."
"Father"
Li Mi replied, and then said respectfully to Li Yuan, "Li Mi pays homage to the master of the family."
"Okay" Li Yuan replied calmly. At this time, he couldn't help but worry about Li Tian, but as the head of the family, he couldn't be too partial to his children.
"Brother, everyone has arrived, should we start selecting the successor to the family head?" Li Quan said impatiently.
Li Yuan frowned slightly, "You're in a hurry, just wait."
"Wait? Why wait? Is there anyone else who hasn't come?" Li Quan said immediately.
"This..." Li Yuan paused and looked at Li Tian.
At this time, Li Tian looked at the time and nodded in response.
After understanding, Li Yuan just said slowly, "Okay, what's coming has come. Now let's start selecting the successor to the head of the Li family."
As soon as he finished speaking, an elder stood up and said, "Let me start the conversation. I recommend Li Mi, the son of Li Quan."
Another elder immediately agreed, "Li Mi has good conduct and has made great contributions to the Li family. Our Li family has always adhered to the principle of putting interests first. If Li Mi can become the head of the family in the future, he will not only be able to have good relations with the Yu family and the Guwu family, but also financially.
We can also get help from the All-Union Chamber of Commerce.”
Unlike the Xu family, this elder almost made his words clear, but no one present felt anything was wrong, which made Li Tian even more unhappy.
"There are differences between elders and younger ones. Since ancient times, the crown prince has been succeeded by the eldest brother. I recommend Li Tian."
Long Zhi on the side couldn't bear it anymore. Although he was weak, he could never forget Li Tian's promotion.
However, as soon as Long Zhi finished speaking, he was forcibly interrupted by another elder, "That's ancient feudal thinking. Elder Long, what you said is a bit inappropriate."
"Yes, although Li Tian is also very good, compared with Li Mi, he is still far behind."
"In terms of qualifications and intelligence, Li Mi is much better than Li Tian."
…
With your words and my words, almost everyone in the Presbyterian Church expressed support for Li Mi.
Before the Yu family, the Furuwu family and the All-Union Chamber of Commerce expressed their stance, the Presbyterian Council had already swung to Li Mi's side.
"Master, please allow me to say something."
Li Bo suddenly spoke up, and everyone around him turned to look at him. On this occasion, it was not the turn of a servant like Li Bo to attend, but after all, Li Bo had served the family master for many years before he got the opportunity to participate. However, the other party actually took advantage of it.
Still thinking about talking?
Are you qualified? Why should I let my servants speak?
At that moment, many elders stared at Uncle Li with disdain.
Seeing that everyone was dissatisfied, Li Yuan's eyes darkened. Under the heavy pressure of the Presbyterian Council, he asked Li Tian to bring Mr. Li over. Naturally, he wanted Mr. Li to help Li Tian speak, "Mr. Li, what do you want to say?
, just say it, don’t pay attention to other people, everyone who can come here to participate in the selection of the family head’s successor will have the opportunity to express their opinions. "
"Master, this is against the rules."
"Indeed, how can a servant be allowed to speak in this kind of situation?"
