"Everyone, Lei will take the first step. In three days, I invite you all to come!"
Lei Zhenyue was a straightforward person. He cupped his hands in front of everyone around him, picked up his son who was lying on the ground, turned around and strode out.
Although the figure is still tall and the shoulders are still broad, it gives people the feeling of a hero in his twilight years. Many old people who followed Lei Zhenyue in his early years shed tears, and the tears blurred their vision.
"Master Ye, have you fulfilled your wish?" After Lei Zhenyue left the courtyard, his companion Sikong Ming looked at Ye Tian with an unkind expression.
"Huh? How do you say this?"
Ye Tian frowned slightly. He did not expect that Lei Zhenyue's prestige in the Hongmen was so high that everyone was vaguely hostile to him.
Sikong Ming was raised by Lei Zhenyue. At this time, his heart was full of indignation and he blurted out: "Drive Uncle Lei away, Master Ye, you are so powerful and powerful!"
"Sikong, don't talk nonsense. Lao Lei did something wrong. We in Hongmen cannot be indiscriminate!"
Li Songqiu had just asked Du Fei in detail about what happened, and found out that Lei Zhenyue and his son had indeed made a mistake, first breaking the rules of the world.
If Ye Tian and Hongmen didn't have such a connection, and he used his methods to directly kill him, Lei Zhenyue might not be able to have a good death. This result is already a blessing among misfortunes.
"What did Uncle Lei do wrong?!"
Sikong Ming shouted loudly. In fact, he knew about Lei Zhenyue's design to extort Song Weilan's money. However, Song Weilan was not a member of the Hongmen, and Ye Tian did not join the Hongmen at that time. Isn't it true that those who don't know should not be blamed.
"Old Lei is trying to get money from the Song family and is going to give it to Lei Hu..."
"President, don't mention this matter again. Elder Lei has decided to wash his hands in the golden basin and let this matter end!" Before Li Songqiu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ye Tian waving his hand.
Ye Tian joined Hongmen just to solve the crisis his mother encountered, and did not want to develop in Hongmen. Ye Tian didn't care at all what these Hongmen thought of him.
However, although Ye Tian stopped him in time, everyone in the venue still heard some clues. Lei Zhenyue should have done something wrong first, and Ye Tian would have a conflict with him.
Moreover, in today's incident, Lei Hu had been provoking Ye Tian, and everyone saw it, and most of their dislike for Ye Tian disappeared.
"Master Ye made a lot of money and saved some face for Lao Lei. I'd like to thank you on Lao Lei's behalf!"
Li Songqiu gratefully bowed his hands to Ye Tian, then looked at everyone and said: "Everyone, Lei Hu has resigned from the position of Master of the Punishment Hall, and Lei Zhenyue has also resigned from the position of Vice President. When we come back from the dinner, I suggest
Convene the Hongmen Congress!”
The departure of the Lei family father and son is bound to have a great impact on Hongmen's old strength. If it is not handled well, it is very likely that the same family will kill each other.
Therefore, Li Songqiu wanted to strike while the iron was hot, not giving these big bosses time to communicate with each other, and quickly arranging all the affairs of the gang.
The obstacles Song Weilan encountered in Hongmen have basically been resolved. Ye Tian did not want to get involved in Hongmen affairs at all. He immediately said: "President, I am a little tired. I will not attend this dinner. I will inform you all on another day."
Brother, let’s serve a drink and apologize!”
"Master Ye, you're welcome, let's go slowly!"
"Master Ye, walk slowly, I'll wait until you get drunk."
"Master Ye, are you free tonight? Hu wants to pay a visit!"
As soon as Ye Tian opened his mouth to leave, the courtyard suddenly became noisy.
Only then did everyone remember that Ye Tian was the only "big" elder in the Hongmen. Even if Ye Tian did not fight for power, he would definitely have the top spot as the chief of the Hongmen.
When people are in the world, why don't they just show their face? These big guys are all powerful and powerful, but they only lack seniority. How comfortable would it be if these people who usually call themselves brothers and sisters can call Ye Tian as their master when they meet?
ah?
With this relationship, the grievances of the Lei family have become unimportant. Everyone wanted to get close to Ye Tian, and it took Ye Tian a full seven or eight minutes to walk from the incense hall to the courtyard gate.
After returning to Du Fei's yard, Ye Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head. It seemed that he was still suitable to be alone. This gang was too complicated for him to play with.
After meditating in the room all afternoon, it was not until five or six o'clock in the evening that Du Fei came back excitedly, his face flushed, and he drank several large glasses of cold water as soon as he entered the room.
Ye Tian came out of the back room and saw Du Fei's appearance. He smiled and teased: "What's the matter? You must be the leader of Hongmen?"
To say that Du Fei is really proud of himself today, even a blind person can see that Li Songqiu favors him. Moreover, he has firmly secured his position as the third person in the Hong Clan. There is a high probability that he will be the next leader of the sect.
Therefore, during the banquet in the afternoon, Du Fei became the target of everyone's toast. Although he had good cultivation, he was still dizzy after drinking more than ten kilograms of white wine.
"Master Ye, I don't dare to say that. There are many people in Hongmen who have higher qualifications than Du Fei."
After hearing Ye Tian's words, Du Fei suddenly woke up from his drunkenness and said with a smile: "Master Ye, you are so young and have such a high level of seniority. If you want to get to the top, it will be much easier than for me."
"Just tell lies with your eyes open..."
Ye Tian curled his lips when he heard this and said angrily: "I have offended half of the people in Hongmen today. These people probably wish I would never come to Hongmen again."
Du Fei smiled and said: "How can you, Master Ye, you must attend the Hongmen Conference tomorrow!"
"Participate in the Hongmen Congress? Forget it..."
Ye Tian shook his head and said: "I don't want to get involved in these things. After participating in the hand-washing ceremony of Lao Lei Jinpen in a few days, I still have things to do. You can tell President Li tomorrow that this time
I won’t participate!”
Ye Tian came to the United States for two purposes. One was to solve the crisis his mother encountered in Hongmen, and the second was of course the World Black Boxing Championship.
Especially after meeting Lei Zhenyue this time, Ye Tian was even more looking forward to it. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this foreign country. There is actually a transformation master hidden in Hongmen. He doesn't know who he will meet in the black boxing competition.
Hearing what Ye Tian said, Du Fei was a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to persuade him. After chatting with Ye Tian for a few words, he went to rest. The Hongmen Conference tomorrow was of great importance to him.
The Hongmen Congress was held longer than Ye Tian had expected. It took two full days to come to a conclusion. Under the auspices of two big bosses, Lei Zhenyue and Li Songqiu, Hongmen's top management underwent a major shake-up.
Not only did Lei Zhenyue give up his position as vice president, but Li Songqiu also officially announced his resignation as the leader of Hongmen.
Under the push of Lei Zhenyue and Li Songqiu, Du Fei, who was originally relatively unknown, succeeded in taking over and became the new leader of Hongmen.
As the saying goes, once the emperor and his ministers retired, after Li Songqiu and Lei Zhenyue retired, the attendants such as Sikong Ming and others also withdrew from the inner and outer eight halls, and were replaced by Hongmen disciples who were good friends with Du Fei.
In the past two days, Hongmen has undergone earth-shaking changes. The withdrawal of Li Songqiu, Lei Zhenyue and others represents the retirement of the older generation, and Hongmen will enter a new period of development.
"Lao Luo, why are you here?"
Du Fei was extremely busy these days and didn't come back for two consecutive days. On the morning of the third day, it was Luo Zhiling who came to pick up Ye Tian.
"Master Ye, Master Lei doesn't live in the door. I will take you to his place."
Luo Zhibing had a very good personal relationship with Du Fei, but this time he also entered the inner eight halls, but in front of Ye Tian, he was very careful to restrain his pride.
Lei Zhenyue's residence in Hongmen was given to his son. He himself lived in a manor on the outskirts of the city. The air there was fresh and the area was vast, which was very suitable for Lei Zhenyue to practice kung fu and strengthen his body.
"Huh? Who are these people?"
After getting into Luo Zhiping's car, Ye Tian discovered that there were at least twenty pairs of foreign eyes in Chinatown staring at the car he was sitting in.
Moreover, as soon as the car exited Chinatown, two Ford police cars followed immediately behind it, without any awareness of being a stalker, and almost didn't even sound the sirens.
"Master Ye, don't pay attention to them. We are good, law-abiding citizens. The police are here to protect us."
Looking back at the police car behind him, Luo Zhiping couldn't help but laugh. In America, the powerless Chinese are indeed bullied.
But when you can influence the election of a city or state, the so-called police and law enforcement agencies will be particularly serious and responsible in protecting their taxpayers.
Sure enough, the two police cars seemed to be protecting Ye Tian and others' safety along the way, and sent them to the manor on the outskirts of the city. Of course, they could only wait outside the manor like their colleagues who came before.
As for what happened inside the manor, the police had no way of knowing. According to American law, private property is above all else, and they had no right to enter.
"Master Ye, are you here?"
"Master Ye, you are so hard to find. I must offer you a toast today."
As soon as Ye Tian and Luo Zhibing got out of the car, a circle of people gathered around them. They all knew in their hearts that Du Fei's rise to power was definitely inseparable from Ye Tian. He was a very noble man.
"It's easy to say, I will definitely get drunk with you all before resting today."
Ye Tian was laughing and looking around, and at this moment, a bulletproof black Mercedes-Benz quietly drove in beside Ye Tian.
"Mom, are you here?" Seeing Song Weilan getting out of the car, Ye Tian quickly confessed to everyone and went up to meet her.
"You forced Uncle Lei to wash his hands in the golden basin. The old man was so angry at home that he stamped his feet. Can I not come?"
Seeing that her son was safe and sound, Song Weilan had a smile on her face.
The old man she was talking about was naturally Song Haotian in the capital. Although they were thousands of miles apart, what happened in Hongmen reached Song Haotian's ears almost at the same time.
