Tian Tao has always hoped that he can return to the Tian family with his sister Qing'er, and his wife will live a peaceful life.

However, just today, there was also Elder Keqing sent by Tian Guiyin to the Sanying Mercenary Group, and kept saying that he wanted to arrest Tian Tao and bring him to justice.

If it weren't for Changsan to help resist for a while, even if Yichen appeared, Tian Tao didn't know how he would be dealt with by Tian Guiyin.

"Go home...... Am I really going home?" Tian Tao muttered to himself.

The word "home" is so easy to say, but the road home is so difficult.

Since the death of both parents, the young Tian Tao brothers and sisters have hardly received attention in the Tian family.

If it weren't for the fact that the Great Elder often took care of him secretly, Tian Tao really thought that he was not a child of the Tian family at all.

In many cases, Tian Tao felt that he was not even as good as those Tian family subordinates.

Despite this, Tian Tao still diligently does everything for the Tian family, and even can only maintain a basic life, and his salary seems to have never been.

Marrying a wife and having children, others are all beautiful, but Tian Tao is cold and indifferent, if it weren't for his loyal and responsible character to win the favor of his father-in-law, I'm afraid Tian Tao is still alone.

But Tian Tao does not reject the Tian family, after all, it is the place where his ancestors have lived for generations, and being able to become a child of the Tian family again is also a kind of fulfillment in Tian Tao's view.

"Yes, it's home. Your brothers and sisters have suffered all these years, from now on, you will officially return to the Tian family, if you want, I can nominate you as the successor head of the Tian family. ”

The Great Elder, who watched Tian Tao grow up, was also full of emotion in his heart.

More than 20 years ago, Tian Tao's father and Tian Guiyin competed for the position of the head of the Tian family, and after failing, he couldn't afford to fall ill, and he died of hatred not long after.

Leaving the two Tian Tao brothers and sisters alone, Tian Guiyin wanted to drive the Tian Tao brothers and sisters out of the Tian family many times, but the Great Elder and others tried their best to stop them.

Tian Guiyin enveloped many elders and disciples of the family, and from time to time gave the eldest elder small shoes to wear, so that the eldest elder did not dare to protect Tian Tao's brothers and sisters too much.

Over the years, for the sake of Tian Tao's brothers and sisters, the Great Elder has been suppressed by Tian Guiyin.

Last time, Tian Guiyin accused Tian Tao of killing his sister and wanted to expel him from the family, although the great elder spoke up, he was suffering from no evidence to overturn Tian Tao's charge of killing his sister.

had to watch that Tian Tao was famous by his family, and he was tired of hiding in Tibet.

As a last resort, the Great Elder could only secretly instruct his nephew Lin Lei to help Tian Tao as much as possible and try to find out the truth of the matter.

"Alright, sit down. ”

Tian Guiyin, who was sitting in the middle of the family, waved his hand impatiently, drooped his eyelids, and said coldly.

Tian Guiyin was depressed in his heart, his luck was not good, in order to covet huge profits, he bought high-quality weapons from Shi Yong, and he ended up like this.

The cultivation was abolished, the qualification was revoked, the Tian family auction house was out of his control, and even the position of the head of the family was threatened.

These are all caused by themselves, and they are also to blame, but the Great Elder, together with the other children and elders of the Tian family, forcibly asked Tian Tao to come back, which made Tian Guiyin inexplicably sad and angry.

For many years, it was because he was afraid that Tian Tao would take the position of head of the family from his own hands after he grew up, so Tian Guiyin deliberately persecuted Tian Tao.

Tian Guiyin was trembling to get the position of the head of the family by improper means, although many hidden dangers back then were basically cleared by him, but Tian Guiyin's heart was always nervous for no reason.

The biggest economic source of the Tian family is the Tian family auction house, as long as the Tian family auction house is controlled, it is equivalent to grasping the economic lifeline of the Tian family.

So, Tian Guiyin tried every means to personally intervene in the daily operation of the Tian family's auction house, set aside the shopkeeper selected by the family, and monopolized the power.

This time, not counting the loss of 500,000 crystal coins, he also lost the qualification to participate in the Tian family's auction house, which made Tian Guiyin have to give up.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to continue to occupy the position of the head of the Tian family, Tian Guiyin would never agree to the Great Elder's proposal.

"Head of the family, you see that Tian Tao has returned, how to decide on the issue of appointment. ”

The Great Elder saluted respectfully to Tian Guiyin and said with a respectful attitude.

No matter how the situation changes in the future, the current head of the Tian family is still Tian Guiyin, and only what has been approved by Tian Guiyin can be called reasonable and legitimate.

"Well, the decision to expel the family has been canceled. ”

Tian Guiyin was expressionless, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him:

From now on, Tian Tao was promoted to the position of the elder of the Tian family, entered the Tian family auction house, and helped the big shopkeeper deal with some daily affairs. ”

Such an appointment is not painful, the so-called promotion is a gimmick, before Tian Tao was expelled, the Great Elder had appointed Tian Tao as an elder.

The number of ordinary elders of the Tian family is relatively large, and there is no too high level, so it can be appointed by the four chief elders, and there is no need to report to the head of the family.

Although Tian Guiyin said that he would deprive Tian Tao of his position as an elder, but then the Qing'er incident happened, and after Tian Guiyin drove Tian Tao out of the Tian family, there was no need to remove him from his post in one more move.

Therefore, according to the position appointed by Tian Guiyin, Tian Tao can only be regarded as reinstating his original position, not being promoted.

"Family Master, what is Tian Tao's position in the Tian Family Auction House?" Before Tian Tao could speak, the Great Elder asked.

Entering the Tian family auction house, this was discussed before, and Tian Guiyin's consent was a little reluctant, but he did not explicitly object.

However, Tian Guiyin did not agree, what position to give Tian Tao, the great elder asked this, just to clarify Tian Tao's identity.

If you just enter the Tian family's auction house as an ordinary elder, you will be a miscellaneous person at best.

You can't even enter the counter, let alone 'take care of some daily business'.

Of course, boiling tea, pouring water, sweeping the floor and wiping the windows can indeed be regarded as a daily matter, but this is not the original intention of the Great Elder to let Tian Tao enter the Tian family's auction house.

"What kind of position do you need? Start at the bottom, gold will always shine. ”

Tian Guiyinpi didn't smile, his triangular eyes were slightly raised, and he glanced at Tian Tao by the way, and the corners of his mouth lifted a look of disdain.

As long as Tian Tao does not really enter the Tian family auction house, Tian Guiyin will have the opportunity to find a new candidate.

When the time comes, instead of Tian Guiyin, he will preside over the Tian family auction house, and the real behind-the-scenes controller will still be Tian Guiyin.

"This is not appropriate, because of the strong ability of the family manager, it has caused the big shopkeeper not to contact the auction house for a long time, so that now the big shopkeeper is at a loss. ”

The Great Elder was silent, first 'praised' Tian Guiyin, and then said:

As the director of the auction house, Tian Tao followed the head of the family into the auction house when he was a child, and he was the best candidate for the new big shopkeeper. ”

The original big shopkeeper was just appointed by Tian Guiyin at will, and he was not proficient in the auction business, and he had been suppressed by Tian Guiyin, so he was no longer suitable to continue to serve as the big shopkeeper.

Looking at the Tian family, there is no one more qualified than Tian Tao to be the chief treasurer of the auction house, and the great elder is not protective, but the truth.

"Tian Tao has never participated in the management of the Tian family's auction house, and if the auction house is handed over to him directly, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, and it will be irresponsible. ”

Tian Guiyin rolled his eyes, and his mouth was full of words, but his heart was empty.

The intention of putting Tian Tao in the Tian family auction house at that time was to find Tian Tao's fault at any time, so as to expel Tian Tao as soon as possible.

Tian Guiyin didn't expect that an idea back then would create Tian Tao's study of the auction business.

In order not to be punished by the third uncle, Tian Tao in his youth showed patience and tenacity beyond ordinary people, and was determined to do his job well.

Although he has not been in contact with the core business of the auction house, Tian Tao can handle all the daily affairs of the auction house with ease.

Even in many specific matters, Tian Tao is more experienced than Tian Guiyin, and the results are satisfactory.

Tian Tao's greatest advantage is that he has almost no selfishness, does his best in everything, and does not hinder his judgment because of personal arbitrariness.

Moreover, it is easy to get along with peers and is willing to listen to other people's opinions, rather than being arbitrary.

These are very rare in the eyes of the Great Elder and others, and what the Tian Family Auction House needs is someone like Tian Tao.

However, in Tian Guiyin's eyes, these characteristics of Tian Tao have completely become undesirable.

Indecisive, unassertive, and lacking the determination to stand alone.

Focusing too much on feelings and doing things too rationally, it is easy to lose fleeting opportunities.

Such a person can be an assistant, a follower, and do whatever the leader tells him, and he doesn't need to think independently.

Therefore, Tian Guiyin believes that Tian Tao still needs to exercise, and if he studies with the big shopkeeper for three or five years, he may improve.

If it is directly in place in one step, it seems that it is not safe to let Tian Tao take over the Tian family's auction house, and it will bring immeasurable losses to the Tian family.

Although Tian Guiyin targeted Tian Tao, what he said was not unreasonable.

Carefully considering the person in charge of the Tian family auction house is responsible for the entire Tian family, which is well known to everyone present.

"What the head of the family said is good, however, for now, there is no one in the entire Tian family who understands the auction business better than Tian Tao, if you spend a lot of money to hire a senior auctioneer, I am afraid it will not be a matter of a while, and it is difficult to be sure of the other party's character and the attitude of cooperation with the Tian family.

Instead of imagining to find the most perfect, it is better to let Tian Tao do it first, even if Tian Tao's ability really does not meet the requirements, we have time to think of other ways. ”

From the perspective of the interests of the Tian family, the Great Elder did not completely deny Tian Guiyin's views.

It's just that he believes that Tian Tao has such ability, and the most important thing is that Tian Guiyin has dominated the Tian family auction house over the years, and he has not done a satisfactory job in the interests of the family.

Many times, Tian Guiyin decides the direction of the auction house based on his personal likes and dislikes, and often takes personal economic interests as the leading direction, which brings certain damage to the overall income of the family.

As the head of the family, if Tian Guiyin does not put the interests of the family first, he will inevitably be criticized.
