It's half past eight, and there's still half an hour before the nine o'clock meeting time.
But at this time, most of the heads of many local wealthy families had already arrived.
There are more than twenty families, large and small, in the Jinmen local sect. Needless to say, the three top aristocratic families are the Xiao, Lu, and Cai families.
Under the three major aristocratic families, there are four second-tier first-class wealthy families, namely the Yang, Cui, Jia, and Song families.
Under the first-class wealthy families, there are six second-class families and ten third-class families.
At this time, the heads of the three major families, that is, the three presidents and vice presidents of the Jinmen Chamber of Commerce, have not yet arrived.
Even the heads of four first-class wealthy families were present.
Only the heads of the third-class families and the second-class families were all present.
The superiority and inferiority of these people are clearly distinguished, and they can be described as distinct.
Among them, the heads of six second-class families were sitting at a table.
The heads of ten third-class families sat together at another table.
At this time, these two groups of people were all confused as to why they were having a meeting today, and had no idea what the content of today's meeting was.
As the head of three major aristocratic families and the president of the Jinmen Chamber of Commerce, Xiao Chengmo would not explain much of the substantive content to them in advance when he notified them of the meeting.
It is enough to just say that there will be a meeting at Huizhenxuan at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Don't be absent, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences.
No one dares not to come.
After all, with the intervention of the princes of the anti-Beijing faction, the market situation in Jinmen in recent years has become increasingly worse for their local families.
No one knows how bad the next days will get, and no one dares to be alone at this time.
"Oriental Wizard, what's wrong with you today? Even your favorite five-nut oil tea in the past seems to be tasteless?"
On the table of the third-class family, I saw a middle-aged man stirring the oil tea in front of him with a spoon, but never took a sip. A middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh and asked.
The Oriental wizard who drank Camellia oleifera was the head of the third-class family, the Dongfang family.
The man who spoke was named Hong Zheng.
The Oriental Wizard glanced at Hong Zheng and sighed: "To be honest, my son has offended a big shot. I have been thinking about how to apologize to him for the past two days."
"Oh?" the Oriental Wizard said, and all nine people at the table became interested.
Hong Zheng asked: "That's not true! What kind of big shot can make you, the head of the Dongfang family, worry like this?"
"It's precisely because I don't know where it comes from that I'm worried!"
The Oriental Wizard smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I only know that that person must have an unusual background. But after two days of checking, I still know nothing about the other person's background."
The others couldn't help but shake their heads after hearing this, and cast contemptuous looks at the Eastern Wizard.
After all, they are all the heads of third-class families in Jinmen. Although they are not as good as those above, they are more than enough than those below. To be frightened like this by a person who does not know his background, the Eastern Wizard is quite cowardly.
The Eastern Wizard felt the contempt of those sitting around him, but he didn't take it seriously, and he didn't want to explain more.
Can someone who can be treated respectfully by Xiao Chengmo be someone he can bear the consequences of?
According to his son and brother, Xiao Chengmo even wanted to make the decision for the young man and punish their Dongfang family.
It was the young man who said something. It was just a small misunderstanding. Now it has been solved, which solved the disaster for their Dongfang family.
Otherwise, Xiao Chengmo only needs to move his fingers and it would be enough for the Dongfang family to drink a pot.
Someone repays kindness with kindness. He, the oriental wizard, must remember this favor.
At this moment, an old man with white hair and beard walked in at the door. Behind the old man, followed a man in black, holding an umbrella for him. After sending him into the door, the man held an umbrella for him.
The umbrella retreated.
"Old Yang!"
"Old Yang!"
Whether it was the head of the third-class family or the head of the second-class family, they all stood up and nodded respectfully to greet the old man.
This old man Yang, who looks to be in his sixties or seventies, is the head of the Yang family, a first-class family in Jinmen, Yang Xuelin.
Facing everyone's greetings, Yang Xuelin nodded slightly, his face looking a little gloomy.
Several heads of the second-class families all came to Yang Xuelin's side. After observing his words, one of them asked: "Is there something unhappy about Mr. Yang?"
Yang Xuelin glanced at the crowd, came to sit down at a table of the Eight Immortals inside, and said coldly: "My grandson Yang Zhuo, his legs were crippled last night!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed. They were all stunned and fell silent.
Yang Xuelin, on the other hand, raised his slightly cloudy old eyes and looked at everyone's reactions coldly.
After a while, the head of a second-class family came forward and asked in a deep voice: "Who is so bold that he even dares to fight Mr. Yang's grandson?"
Yang Xuelin said coldly: "I don't know who that young man is. But it doesn't matter.
What really makes me unhappy is that the cause of this incident is that my grandson Yang Zhuo had his legs broken after seeing Lu Fang's granddaughter Lu Mushi being bullied and helping Lu Mushi.
But that old guy Lu Fang warned me to swallow my breath and not think about seeking revenge from the other party.
My grandson was implicated by his granddaughter, Lu Fang. The Lu family should have come forward and given me an explanation for this matter.
I don't want the Lu family to seek justice for me now, but even I can't seek justice for my grandson.
Do you think Lu Fang is a bit too bullying?
Tell me, who is right and who is wrong in this matter?"
When he said the last sentence, Yang Xuelin slapped the armrest of the red nanmu chair with his palm, looking very angry!
The six heads of the second-class families looked at each other in confusion.
Originally, they came over to greet Yang Xuelin because he was both an elder and the head of a first-class family.
But who would have known that the object of Yang Xuelin's hatred at this time turned out to be the head of the Lu family, one of the three major aristocratic families, and the vice president of the Jinmen Chamber of Commerce, Lu Fang!
They can't afford to offend Yang Xuelin, let alone Lu Fang!
How should they answer this question?
If Yang Xuelin is a relatively weak person, they will naturally stand firmly on Lu Fang's side at this moment. No matter what, the Lu family will definitely not be able to offend him.
However, the Yang family is the most financially powerful among the four first-class families. Compared with the three major aristocratic families, it is only a step behind.
No matter how they heard about this matter and how they thought it was the Lu family's problem, they would never dare to confuse right and wrong in front of Yang Xuelin.
One of the second-class family heads weighed for a moment and said in deep thought: "If the facts are really as you said, Mr. Yang, then the problem does lie with Mr. Lu.
However, I think there must be some misunderstanding in this matter. Why don't you talk to Mr. Lu calmly, Mr. Yang, when Mr. Lu comes later?"
