Arriving all the way to the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, Xue Lin found that there was a group of armed guards in front of the door. He recognized these people as the Xu Family Nursing Home. He couldn't help but frown. Instead of entering rashly, he ordered the guard captain to set up a guard around the area and
He repeatedly warned that if there was any disturbance inside, he would lead his troops in immediately, and he led twelve strong guards inside.
After entering the Chamber of Commerce and going straight to the second floor, I saw that it was already full of people. A cursory glance showed that several prominent figures in the Chamber of Commerce were all present, and Xu Wangtang was sitting at the bottom of the president's seat.
The seats were empty. He couldn't help but think of his godfather who died tragically. His heart felt cramped. He glanced at everyone with a gloomy face and sneered: "The bandits have been defeated before your eyes. Do you still have the time to hold a meeting?" In fact, he had already.
Guessing that Xu Wangtang was eyeing the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce, he came to the meeting this time to disrupt the meeting and prevent Xu Wangtang from getting what he wanted.
Before Xue Lin finished speaking, a middle-aged man with Chinese characters sitting directly opposite Xu Wangtang answered: "President Ding was assassinated, leaving the Chamber of Commerce without a leader. A man with the Tao cannot stand without a leader. At this critical moment, we need to choose."
A new president will be appointed to lead everyone to resist the bandits."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present agreed.
Xue Lin looked at the middle-aged man with a fierce look, and said with a cold light in his eyes: "President Ding's body is still cold, are you so anxious to choose a new master?" He was not polite when he spoke, nor did he hide the murderous intention in his heart, his eyes almost
I want to swallow up Vice President Zhou.
Vice President Zhou's face stiffened, and he laughed a few times. He glanced at Xu Wangtang, an old monk sitting in meditation, and bravely said: "Captain Xue, you can't say that. We all mourn President Ding very much, but the deceased
The dead are like the living, and a new president must be chosen sooner rather than later. This was also decided by the directors of our chamber of commerce after discussion."
These words were very knowledgeable. Vice President Zhou just said clearly that Xue Lin was not a member of the Chamber of Commerce and had no right to interfere with the Chamber of Commerce. Xue Lin also realized this and quickly focused on the number of people who were usually friendly with the Ding family.
If any of the directors had their support, they would be able to refute Vice President Zhou's words. But to his disappointment, these directors avoided looking at him and did not dare to look at him. The situation suddenly became clear. There was no doubt that Xu Wangtang had obtained
The overwhelming majority of the Chamber of Commerce agreed.
Xue Lin glanced at the several guild directors who were usually friendly with the Ding family, but saw that their eyes were dodging and they did not dare to look at them. Seeing this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. The trees fell and the hozens scattered. The Ding family had a good life in Yongcheng.
It was the end, but he was really unwilling to accept that Xu Wangtang had stolen the power of the Chamber of Commerce, and said coldly: "Even if the directors discuss it together, it is useless. The Ding family is not dead yet, and the eldest and second young masters will return to their hometowns for funerals in the near future.
Wait until they come back." He said this with a bit of arrogance. As his tone changed, the guards behind him exuded a murderous aura. This group of people had just come off the battlefield. This aura
The murderous intent was really scary. Some of the directors suddenly changed their colors and their eyes became suspicious. They suddenly remembered that Xue Lin was in charge of the militia and had great power of life and death in Yongcheng at this time. After all, the county magistrate was still under house arrest at this time.
In the county government, let alone people like myself.
"Things have their own priorities. One of the two young masters of the Ding family is far away in a foreign country, and the other is far away in Shanghai. By the time they come back from the funeral, I don't know how long it will be. Yongcheng may have been invaded by bandits by then."
Xu Wangtang was not afraid of Xue Lin, and said in a deep voice: "Captain Xue should be very aware of how powerful the bandits are. If I hadn't led people to help in time today, the city would have been breached by the bandits. If we can hold it this time, we may not be so lucky next time."
Right now. Only by gathering the power of the Chamber of Commerce can we resist the bandits and keep Yong City peaceful, so it is imperative to elect a new president. We cannot ignore the people of the city just because we wait for one or two people."
Xu Wangtang is an experienced person, and his words are to the point, and he speaks from a righteous perspective, leaving Xu Lin speechless.
Xue Lin also knew that he was a rough man. He could not compare with Xu Wangtang's words, and he had no way to refute. After turning his mind for a few times, he suddenly had an idea and said: "Since everyone has to choose a new president, I will speak on behalf of the Ding family. I think
Boss He is good. President Ding often said that Boss He is good when he was still alive. I agree with him as the president, but I won’t agree if someone else becomes the president."
Rough people have their own ways, and Xue Lin's method is to stir up trouble. The boss he recommended is in the grain and oil business. He has a lot of money. He has dozens of food protection teams under him. He is a powerful figure. The most important thing is that he has a lot of money.
The thing is that Boss He and Xu Wangtang have an old grudge. In the past, when Xu Wangtang was the patrol camp leader, he used his power to swallow up half of the He family's property. Now that Boss He is being pushed out to play against Xu Wangtang, he is just waiting to see the good show.
.
Boss He never expected that Xue Lin would show up. He was not prepared at all. He was so shocked that it was hard to say anything. He hurriedly waved his hands and said: "No, no, I can't sit as president."
"Boss He, you have to take the seat as president. If you don't agree, I'll be angry." Xue Linpi smiled, with a hint of threat in his smile.
Boss He didn't dare to offend Xue Lin, but he also didn't dare to offend Xu Wangtang. He was sweating profusely and didn't dare to refuse or agree.
Xue Lin's smile deepened and he couldn't help but glance at Xu Wangtang, his eyes full of provocation.
Xu Wangtang seemed calm, glanced at Xue Lin meaningfully, and said with a smile: "I also agree with Boss He to be the president."
Xue Lin's smile suddenly faltered. He couldn't believe his ears. He really couldn't figure out what Xu Wangtang was thinking. He felt like a punch on cotton.
With Xu Wangtang's agreement, other directors agreed, and Boss He and he became the new president of the Yongcheng Chamber of Commerce.
The trouble started after the president was chosen. Boss He didn’t really think of himself as an onion, but as a hands-off shopkeeper who didn’t take any initiative. The chamber of commerce suddenly became a lively vegetable market.
Each of them has his or her own interests and demands, and the disputes are fierce.
Xue Lin felt that the situation was not good. In the past, the Chamber of Commerce paid for the military expenses of the militia, so he mentioned it. Unexpectedly, the directors seemed to have agreed upon it, and only agreed to pay half of the previous military expenses. How could he be willing to do it? He was cheating.
He slapped the gun on the table with his face and said sternly: "The military expenditure cannot be reduced by a dime. Bargain with me. Go and defend Yongcheng and see if the bandits will be polite to you."
"Xue Lin, I've been putting up with you for a long time." Xu Wangtang looked at the gun on the table, his expression suddenly changed, he suddenly slapped the table, stood up and shouted: "It's not your turn to yell at Yongcheng, the militia is not yours.
Private soldiers are soldiers of Yongcheng. If you dare not defend the city, your regiment leader will be killed."
Xue Lin sneered, glared at Xu Wangtang tit for tat, and said in a cold voice: "Xu Wangtang, I respect you as a senior, and I don't know you the same way. Don't think that I, Xue Lin, am frightened. I am my captain.
You should weigh yourself first."
Xu Wangtang glanced at Xue Lin contemptuously, waved his hand and said: "Come here, take down Xue Lin for me!"
After the words fell, the windows around the Chamber of Commerce opened, and they saw that the Xu Family Nursing Home had already surrounded the Chamber of Commerce, and the black muzzles were pointed at the backs of Xue Lin and others.
