Chapter 1084 The struggle for power and position (1)
Asmus family.
In the conference room, Maxim sat in the position of the patriarch, with a cold smile on his lips.
At this time, his mobile phone kept thinking of calls from his subordinates from various places, saying that the Andre family and the Kozlov family had launched another attack. Because those places had not yet elected responsible persons to take over,
So much so that people's hearts were shattered and their army was defeated.
Maxim was also very angry about this. He didn't expect that the Andrei family and the Kozlov family had gone back on their word. They had just reached a settlement, and now they were in trouble again.
However, this is normal.
Isn't that what the intrigues in the world are all about?
Everything depends on strength. As long as you are strong enough, you can say whatever you want.
However, Maxim had no time to pay attention to it for the time being. The most important thing at the moment was to stabilize the internal affairs and secure the position of patriarch. Only in this way, what was lost could be slowly regained.
After a while, other people in charge came in one after another, including Laimontov. There was a complacent look on his face, and his eyes when he looked at Maxim were also full of coldness.
and passed away.
"Everyone, wait patiently for a moment. I'll ask Goncharov to do something. He will be back soon."
Maxim looked around at everyone and continued to fiddle with his phone with his head down.
The atmosphere at the scene was a bit strange. Everyone's eyes were focused on Maxim. Looking at his calm expression, they couldn't figure out for a moment what he was thinking. Everyone felt a little uneasy.
My heart is in a state of ups and downs.
In their view, Maxim is now a lunatic. How can a man who keeps saying that he can't bear to do something to his father but ruthlessly do it to him be worthy of trust?
Thinking about it, their eyes couldn't help but turn to Lemontov.
The latter glanced back at them, dropped a look, and then lighted a cigarette leisurely.
After a while, Goncharov slowly walked in. He glanced at Maxim and then sat down.
"Okay, everyone is here, let's have a meeting."
Maxim cleared his throat and said.
"I just received news that the Andre family and the Kozlov family tore up our previous peace agreement and launched another attack on us. This time, it was more ferocious than the last time, and it was obvious that they wanted to destroy us completely.
Devour our territory. What do you think about this?"
"Let's talk about the position of patriarch first." Laimontov said.
"The position of patriarch? What does the second uncle mean by this?" Maxim smiled coldly.
"Maxim, don't blame your second uncle for being unkind. When we supported you as the patriarch, we hoped that you could calm the family's turmoil and lead the family to become stronger. But now it seems that this is not the case.
The Andrei family and the Kozlov family did not hesitate to tear up the agreement and launch another attack; coupled with the previous incident with Boris, the family suffered heavy losses, all of which were caused by you. Therefore, I feel that this position is not suitable
Sit down." Laimontov had a proud smile on his lips.
Maxim smiled contemptuously, "Second uncle is really good at what he does. I admire him, I admire him."
"What do you mean?" Lamontov frowned.
The others watched the fight between uncle and nephew without saying a word.
"Don't you understand what you mean, uncle?" Maxim smiled coldly, "In order to take revenge, you first supported me as the leader of the clan, thus turning against my father; and then, you sent someone to kill my father to put the blame on him.
Give it to me and make people think that I am a madman who killed his father and brother; then, he colluded with the Andrei family and the Kozlov family to launch an attack at this time and create another crisis. In the final analysis, it is just because you want to sit in this position
Well, why bother?"
"With red lips and white teeth, you can't just talk nonsense. Who outside doesn't know that you killed your father? How can you blame me? Say that I colluded with the Andrei family and the Kozlov family.
, do you have any evidence? Maxim, my second uncle doesn’t have to ask you to step down. I supported you in taking this position at the beginning, and I didn’t want to. However, now that the family has become like this, you have no reputation to lead the family anymore.
Naturally, we should choose a suitable successor. This is not my intention, but everyone's intention."
Laimontov looked around at everyone indifferently.
"Ask them, who do they support as the patriarch?"
"Maxim, you are indeed not suitable to sit on the position of patriarch. Therefore, we have always elected publicly, and the position of patriarch should be inherited by Montov." One of the people in charge said, except Goncharov.
, and the rest of the people also agreed.
"Did you hear that? This is what everyone means." Laimontov smiled proudly, "For the sake of the family, I have no choice but to accept orders in times of crisis and shoulder the heavy responsibility."
"Okay, very good." Maxim laughed heartily, "It seems that the second uncle is well prepared."
"Maxim, you don't have to be sad. We are always uncles and nephews. I will not embarrass you. In front of so many people today, I can assure you that you will still be the responsible person in the future.
In such a critical moment for the family, we, uncle and nephew, should share the same hatred and speak out against the outside world. What do you think?" Laimontov smiled slightly, looking sincere, but in fact he was ridiculing and mocking.
"It seems that I must give way." Maxim shrugged.
Then, he turned around and glanced at Goncharov. The latter understood, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, opened a video, and handed it to the people in charge.
Everyone was shocked after seeing it.
"You...what do you want to do?"
"It's nothing, I didn't want to do this originally, but you have to force me, and I have no choice." Maxim smiled contemptuously, "Now, as long as I give the order, you know what the consequences will be, right? Tell me.
I, do you still support him taking the position of patriarch?"
Everyone lowered their heads and dared not speak.
Their wives, children, and children were all in Maxim's hands, and there was nothing they could do.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you talking? Aren't you all talking endlessly just now? Now I'm asking you to talk, why are you not talking?" Maxim's voice was cold.
"we support you."
One of them sighed and said helplessly.
Others can only echo the sentiment.
People are knives and soldiers, and I am fish and meat. Until now, this can only be the case.
Laimontov was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowed, and his eyes burst into bursts of coldness. He still underestimated his nephew a little too much.
"good very good."
Maxim smiled proudly.
"What about you? Do you still want to sit in this position? You want to fight with me? Do you think I won't know what you are thinking? Let me tell you, even if they don't talk, you can't sit in this position. Outside
, I have arranged a large number of gunmen, and as long as I give the order, all of you will turn into a dead corpse. Second uncle, second uncle, do you think I am the kind of person who can be played in the palm of your hand? "
Maxim slapped the table hard, stood up and glared.
