Chapter Ninety-Nine: Breaking Immortals
After waiting for so long, there was finally substantial progress, I stopped hip-hopping and fart with Liang Qian, straightened the slightly wrinkled shirt on my body, looked at the time, and said to Liang Qian, "That's the case, we'll go over now, anyway, the time is about the same, it's not good to let others wait for me." ”
Liang Qian nodded, turned around to lead the way for me, I followed behind him, and gave Chen Mo a look, Chen Mo nodded, Liang Qian only said that he invited me, and did not mention their affairs, Chen Mo and Lu Worm just stayed in the room and packed up the things to be used.
When I arrived at the conference hall, the people were almost seated, and the ceremonial platform on the north side of the hall was made into two layers, the high one put a very wide table with a tablecloth, and the lower one put seven sets of unconnected single tables and sofas, and seven sets of tables and chairs were placed in the west position, which should have been prepared for me.
Sure enough, Liang Qian led me to a single seat, and after taking a seat, Liang Qian went to sit under the altar, and I took the opportunity to observe the surrounding situation.
There are already four people sitting on the seven sets of sofas on the first floor of the ceremonial platform, waiting for Zhou Gongpin to sit in the middle, Du Bohou Chen Cangwu is sitting on his left hand, Zhou Gongpin's right hand should be Zhaogong Liu Yuzhong, Chen Cangwu is in a position to the left, sitting a man in his thirties, thin and with long hair, I don't know, but I instinctively feel that this should be Rui Bohou Jiting.
There is no need to ask on the second floor of the ceremonial platform, it must be the position of the palace master of Changle Palace, as the supreme person in charge of Changle Palace, he naturally will not sit here in advance and wait, it is a loss of identity, I looked at the ceremonial platform again, the seats below are about seven or eight rows, but only the first row has a table in front of him, and there is a name tag on the table, Liang Qian sits in the center of the left position, and the name tag in front of him is his name, I glanced at the ceremonial platform thoughtfully, Chen Cangwu There is only a cup of tea and a microphone on the table in front of them, it seems that these seven are well-known characters in Changle Palace, and they don't even need famous brands。
On the far left of the middle space between the ceremonial platform and the row below, a long table was placed horizontally, and the name tag on the table was written with Liang Hui's name, I knew that Liang Hui was the chief bookkeeper of Changle Palace, but I don't know what this master book does.
As time passed, the seats under the ceremonial platform slowly filled up, and the three people missing the seats on the first floor of the ceremonial platform also arrived one after another, a middle-aged thin man in his forties walked straight to Chen Cangwu and sat down, it should be Yang Wei, the Han Bohou who supported Chen Cangwu, and the other two were a big fat man in his thirties, and an old man in his sixties with a rickety back, I knew that the two of them were Yang Fan Hou Fan Ziyu and Wei Bo Hou Jiang Liu, but I couldn't tell who was who.
After all the personnel arrived, the venue slowly quieted down, the side door of the ceremonial platform opened, Liang Hui brought a few people in, with his command, the servants brought in a very fast speed on the second floor of the ceremonial platform to arrange a layer of curtains, which made me curious, but looking at Chen Cangwu and them, they looked accustomed to being unmoved, could it be that the palace master of the Changle Palace was so mysterious?
After the curtain was laid, there was a maid holding a person in, who came in a white robe, covered with a white veil, and couldn't see his appearance clearly, he could only judge from the figure that it should be a woman, she came in and walked straight to the second floor of the ceremony, thinking that it was the palace master of Changle Palace, there was no doubt that a few questions arose in my heart, the palace master of Changle Palace was actually a woman?
At this point, everyone has arrived, the side door and the main entrance have been closed one after another, Liang Hui stood in front of his desk, and began to report the situation, which is roughly the same as what Chen Cangwu told me, after the report, Liang Hui put down the documents in his hand and said solemnly, "To sum up, the code name of this operation is 'Folding Immortals', the theme of this meeting, to determine the fighters involved in the Folding Immortals operation, I announce that the meeting has officially begun." ”
The seven people on the podium did not speak, and the crowd below turned from whispering to heated discussion, I knew that this was the garbage time for the people below to accept and analyze the situation, so I simply took advantage of my free time to look at the big treasurers of Changle Palace who participated in the meeting.
The preparation of the Changle Palace and the Peace Hokusai are not the same, the Peace Hokusai is still sneaky and eats the old business differently, the Changle Palace has been successfully transformed, and the excavation of tombs has become an archaeological action allowed by the state, the Ping Hokusai follows the old habits, the shopkeepers are directly managed by the elders, and the Changle Palace has removed the elders and added the position of the big treasurer, and the big shopkeeper directly obeys the orders of the seven high-level, compared to the Pinghokusai who are still the elders and deacons are still confronting each other and intertwining with each other, the system of the Changle Palace is obviously more efficient, but there are still seven high-level people between the big shopkeeper and the palace master, which buries the root of the infighting。
There are about twelve or thirteen shopkeepers sitting in the first row of the audience, in addition to Liang Qian and Zhou Yakun who have already seen it, there is also the name of Rui Ren Zexiu who I have heard of before, Rui Ren Zexiu has the face of a Korean idol star, under the background of the simple face of Shaanxi people, it is as conspicuous as standing out from the crowd, it may be the reason for loving the house and Wu, I didn't have the first reaction to scold a little white face like I saw a handsome guy on weekdays, I first thought of Rui Yun Jinghong when I saw Rui Ren Zexiu, I just felt that as Rui Yun Jinghong's brother, Rui Ren Zexiu was so handsome It is a very reasonable thing。
Rui Ren Zexiu's name is written on the name plate next to Rui Ren Zexiu, but unfortunately there is no one behind the name plate, I feel a little lost and a little puzzled, how could she be absent for no reason in such an important meeting?
The seat vacated by Rui Yunjinghong, who was absent, was like a watershed, and the big shopkeeper on the other side, like their master, deliberately distanced himself from the big shopkeepers here, Zhou Yakun was very active in it, and from time to time he seemed to inadvertently glance at me a few times, I sneered in my heart, this bastard seems to have made up his mind to trouble me, but he picked the wrong object, after the action starts, I will definitely find an opportunity to make him suffer, let him understand that I am a thorny cactus, not something he can touch if he wants to.
The discussion below gradually thinned out, and Zhou Gongpin saw that the time was almost up, leaned forward, and said into the microphone, "Quiet, listen to the palace master!"
Zhou Gongpin's voice is the same as the last time they met, still neat and categorical, giving people a feeling that they can't be distinguished, I noticed a detail, he is the strongest of the seven people, and there is no problem with the voice of the representative, but he kept asking everyone to listen to the palace master's speech quietly, but the whole person has no respect at all, the tone is tough, and he doesn't look back, I realized that my previous guess was wrong, the infighting in Changle Palace is not the struggle between Chen Cangwu and Zhou Gongpin, what Zhou Gongpin challenged was the authority of the palace master of Changle Palace.
This discovery overturned all the plans I had considered before, Zhou Gongpin dared to be disrespectful to the palace master of Changle Palace in such a big meeting, which can only show that he has mastered enough capital, at least it is also a level that can interact with the palace master of Changle Palace, when the internal fighting of Changle Palace was said by Chen Cangwu, I didn't care much, and I was ready to stay out of the matter, and withdraw when I took Jianmu, now it seems that the action of folding immortals is likely to be used by Zhou Gongpin and become his first sharp blade to attack the palace master of Changle Palace.
Zhou Gongpin's rampant made the audience fall into a dead silence, and after a while, a soft female voice came out from behind the curtain and said, "Regarding the candidates for the Immortal Breaking Operation, it will be handed over to the seven family masters to discuss and rule, the Changle Lingwei of the main palace will send a team of four people to participate in the action, the head of the Ji family, the palace has the cheekiness to borrow Rui Yun Jinghong from you to lead the Changle Lingwei team, I don't know if it is possible?"
Rui Bohou Ji Ting leaned back slightly, lowered his head and replied respectfully, "The palace master has an order, how dare Ji Ting disobey, tomorrow I will send Rui Yun Jinghong to report to the palace master, palace master, please rest assured." ”
Rui Bohou Ji Ting's respect, and waiting for Zhou Gongpin's arrogance formed a sharp contrast, I looked at Zhou Gongpin's expression, he sat at the table, unmoved, neither ashamed of his own arrogance, nor contempt for Ji Ting's respectful contempt, he was so happy and angry, but let me have no bottom in my heart, I have always thought that people are unpredictable, rather than on what can be hit, rather than on what can be counted, after all, the open gun is easy to block the dark arrow is difficult to prevent.
The palace master's voice came out from behind the curtain again, and said, "In this case, this palace has thanked the Ji family master first, and the seven can start to draw up the quota, the palace is just listening, and the result of the discussion of the seven family masters will be implemented as the final decision of the immortal breaking action." ”
After the palace master of Changle Palace finished speaking, Zhou Gongpin took the microphone and said, "I propose that each clan have a big treasurer, and the big treasurer will screen the members by himself, and the action fighters will be controlled below eighty, and the current head of the dragon hunting team will also serve as the commander-in-chief, and start the action on a certain day." ”
"No!"
After Zhou Gongpin finished speaking, there was an immediate voice of opposition, Zhou Gongpin made a decision like a knife and an axe, which was not in line with the discussion principles of the meeting at all, I expected that someone would object, but what I didn't expect was that it was not Chen Cangwu who I imagined, but Liang Hui, the main bookkeeper sitting in the audience.
Zhou Gongpin obviously didn't buy Liang Hui's account, he said coldly, "Master Liang, Changle Palace's meeting decision-making, the main book does not have veto power, you don't want to overstep." ”
When I arrived in Pinghokusai, Liang Hui once accompanied Chen Cangwu to receive me together, thinking that he was on the side of the palace master in the infighting, Zhou Gongpin naturally would not give him face, Zhou Gongpin himself was tough, and it was difficult for people to resist what he said, plus he pressed each other with his position, which really gave Liang Hui an embarrassment, on the other hand, Liang Hui, he did not waver because of Zhou Gongpin's words, and replied word by word, "Although the main book does not have the right of veto, it has the right to suggest and supervise. ”
Zhou Gongpin frowned, then stretched out again, didn't speak, just looked at Liang Hui, he was very deep, he didn't have enough certainty, how could he be willing to do that tongue battle with Liang Hui, Liang Hui met Zhou Gongpin's gaze, did not flinch, the two looked at each other for a long time, Zhou Gongpin said slowly, "Since Master Liang has a good plan, you might as well talk about it." ”
Zhou Gongpin's compromise was something I expected, he did things like boxing, and he knew that it was more advantageous to take it back and fight it back, which is also where I was afraid of him, but Liang Hui's tough attitude was beyond my imagination, and it also made my one-sided pessimism slightly correct the direction.
