Chapter 444 Second Elder

"Second Elder!"

Even Tang Bingyun bowed and saluted, calling him "Second Elder".

The Tang Clan is in charge of the elders. When the head of the family is absent, all matters are decided jointly by the elders. The second elder has a status second only to the first elder and has great power.

The second elder glanced at the Puppet God and said, "Puppet God? This thing has not appeared in the world for a long time."

Then he looked at Wu Bei and said with a smile: "No wonder the master of the house thinks so highly of you, you are really amazing. By the way, I am not an enemy, you can put away the puppet god."

Wu Bei waved and the puppet god returned to the puppet card. He cupped his fists and said, "I've seen the second elder."

The second elder smiled and said: "Bingyun is so lucky."

Tang Bingyun: "Second Elder, why are you here?"

The second elder sighed softly and said, "You have also heard what Fei Jian said. Bingyun, according to the rules, you have to temporarily put down your position as commander. We will give you justice after the investigation is clear."

Tang Bingyun sneered: "Second Elder, you mean that if something similar happens again in the future, the person involved must give up his position regardless of whether he can prove his innocence. Is that true?"

The second elder frowned slightly: "Bingyun, the rules are the rules and cannot be questioned."

Tang Bingyun showed no expression on his face and said: "Grandpa asked me to sit in the seat of the Commander-in-Chief. The only one who can make me give up this seat is Grandpa!"

The second elder looked ugly: "Bingyun, are you going to fight against the entire Tang Sect?"

Tang Bingyun sneered: "Second Elder, you can't represent the entire Tang Sect! There is also the Great Elder above you!"

The second elder's face turned cold and slightly angry: "Don't you think that you can challenge my authority with the help of a mere puppet god?"

Tang Bingyun took out a token from his waist and said: "Here is the family leader's token! Since the second elder told me the rules, I will follow the rules. According to the Tang Sect's rules, the family leader's token represents the will of the family leader!"

The second elder's expression changed, and he was obviously very surprised: "Did the head of the family give you the token?"

Tang Bingyun: "That's right! I now order the second elder to return to Tangmen immediately and stop interfering with the affairs of the port city!"

The second elder sighed and said: "Bingyun, you still haven't seen the current situation clearly. If you take the opportunity to withdraw now, you can still protect yourself wisely, otherwise it will be too late to regret."

Tang Bingyun: "That's my business, don't worry about it for the second elder!"

The second elder glanced at Wu Bei and said: "As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall, so you can do it yourself!" After saying that, he turned and left, and the people around him also left with him.

The people present were stunned. They did not expect that things would change one after another.

Tang Bingyun said loudly at this time: "From now on, Wu Bei will serve as commander, and you must obey his orders absolutely!"

"Yes!" Everyone, including Fei Qian, responded in unison.

At this time, Tang Bingyun looked at the man with glasses: "Han Qi. Tang Rong is dead. I give you one day to hand over all the assets of the Han family. If you pay less, your life will be at risk!"

"Yes, I will definitely cooperate." Han Qi wiped his cold sweat and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Tang Bingyun said: "Chief steward, please lead someone to follow Han Qi and handle this matter as soon as possible."

"Yes!" The chief steward stood up and accepted the order.

After Han Qi left, the remaining members of Tiansha in Hong Kong City arrived one after another. As commander, Wu Bei wanted to know everyone's situation.

He came to the office and called people in one by one according to the roster. For those with higher positions, he would ask more questions, while for those with lower positions, he would simply ask about basic information.

Two hundred and forty-six people talked to him one by one, for three to five minutes each. When he met everyone, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

At this time, everyone was sitting silently in the hall and never left.

The chief steward finally came back and said: "Si Ming, the Han family has handed over all their property. I have left a few people there. It will take a few days to complete all the procedures."

Wu Bei nodded: "Chief steward, go to the nearest hotel and book twenty banquet tables."

The chief steward said: "Yes, I will do it right away!"

Wu Bei said to everyone again: "We will be brothers from now on, let's have a good drink tonight!"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, thinking that this commander wanted to drink with everyone? You know, the former commander had always ignored his subordinates and was very cold. Wu Bei's behavior surprised them.

Surprised, everyone still got up and headed to the hotel.

More than two hundred people filed out, with Wu Bei walking at the front.

Tang Bingyun asked in a low voice: "Do you really want to drink with them?"

Wu Bei: "Why, do you think it's inappropriate?"

Tang Bingyun shook his head: "I just think that your new commander should remain mysterious."

Wu Bei said lightly: "Everyone has his own style. I don't like mystery."

After a pause, he continued: "Bingyun, although you used the family head's token to drive away the second elder, you also put yourself in a dangerous situation."

Tang Bingyun: "Are you worried that they will jump over the wall and send someone to assassinate me?"

Wu Bei: "I may not kill you, but I may steal your token."

Tang Bingyun sighed: "In today's situation, the other party used a conspiracy to force me to give up my position as the leader. I have no choice but to do this."

Wu Bei: "Your grandfather should have expected this day when he handed the token to you. He should have made follow-up arrangements."

Tang Bingyun: "Maybe, but I'm very passive now."

Wu Bei patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, if the sky falls, I will hold you up!"

Tang Bingyun held his hand and said softly: "Thank you."

When we arrived at the hotel, twenty tables of banquets had been set up, using the best banquets in the hotel. Each table cost 30,000 Hong Kong dollars. The wine was also thousands of dollars a bottle.

Under the arrangement of the chief steward, everyone sat down according to their order. At the tables of Wu Bei and Tang Bingyun, there were the chief steward and other more prestigious people, and the rest sat at the remaining tables.

After everyone was seated, Wu Bei picked up a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Brothers, I, Wu Bei, would like to offer you three glasses of wine!"

Everyone stood up one after another, picked up their wine glasses, and drank down the wine in one gulp.

Wu Bei toasted three glasses in a row, and everyone drank three glasses in a row. After three glasses of wine, people on the table stood up and toasted to Wu Bei one after another.

Wu Bei refused to accept anyone who came, and within a short time, he had drank one and a half kilograms of high-strength liquor.

After chatting with the people at the table, he stood up and walked to other tables, smiling: "Brothers, I'd like to toast you three glasses!"

At this table, there was a bearded man in his thirties or forties. While others drank from three-liang cups, he drank from a half-a-pound cup. When Wu Bei came over to propose a toast, he also drank it in one gulp.

Wu Bei couldn't help but be curious and said with a smile: "Li Asi, you have a good drinker!"

The name of this bearded man was Li Asi. He stood up quickly and said in surprise: "Si Ming, do you remember my name?"

Wu Bei smiled and said: "Of course I remember. But when you introduced yourself, why didn't you say you have a good drinker?"

Li Asi was very embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "It's not like you can drink too much."

Wu Bei smiled and asked him: "Li Asi, how much can you drink?"

Li Asi shook his head: "I don't know, I've never been drunk."

Wu Bei laughed loudly: "You are very arrogant! It just so happens that I have never been drunk before, why don't we give it a try?"

Li Asi was stunned. He waved his hand quickly: "Si Ming, you can't drink from me, so you better stop drinking."

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell silent. Li Asi also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he quickly slapped his mouth: "I'm sorry, Si Ming, I didn't mean that, I..."

Wu Bei looked half-smiling and said, "Li Asi, do you look down on me? Well, let's each drink a box of wine first. Do you dare?"
