Chapter 1809 The New Ruler (6th Watch)
1809
"You... Is it Duanmu Ci, who is second on the Huaxia Martial Arts Supreme List?" Zhao Taixun stood aside, watched Xu Taiping and Duanmu Ci chat for a long time, and asked.
"It's me. Duanmu Ci nodded.
"I have admired the name for a long time!" Zhao Taixun sighed.
"I've admired your name for a long time. Duanmu Ci said with a smile.
"Let's go in first! Find a place to sit, I have arranged some places for the people of the Huaxia Martial Arts Association, you can sit in their group of people at that time!" Xu Taiping said.
"Good!"
After sending Duanmu Ci to the Intermediate Court, Zhao Taixun sighed, "Taiping, the people you are dating with now are really a bit unexpected to me." ”
"That's not it, now that the identity is there, the people who are interacting with are naturally high-end!" Xu Taiping said proudly.
"This Duanmu Ci is not a high-end person who can be interacted, he is very strong, very strong, but he lives in seclusion in a small county town, and rarely appears in the rivers and lakes, it is rare that you have a relationship with him. Cho Tae-hoon said.
"Okay, he actually has some connections with the Zhao family. Xu Taiping said.
"Oh, what origin?" asked Cho Tae-hoon.
"I'll tell you when I get back! Xu Taiping said.
"Good!"
In the next nearly an hour, many people came, first of all, the Huaxia Wushu Association came to at least dozens of people, after all, Xu Taiping is the president of the Huaxia Wushu Association, everyone wants to give him face, in the big faction, except for Wudang and Emei, basically the heads of all the sects came, which is very much in front of Xu Taiping, in addition, there are many committee members who also came, and the people of the Huaxia Wushu Association alone accounted for nearly one-third of the total number of people watching the ceremony.
In addition to the Chinese Martial Arts Association, Razor, as a representative of the relevant state departments, also brought a few subordinates, and then Chu Jingfeng, and even Secretary Zhang of Kailiu Province, also came to the Zhao family, in addition, some officials from the Ministry of Commerce in the capital also came to the Zhao family, after all, Xu Taiping is one of the top ten economic figures of the year, and there will be a lot of cooperation between Taiya Group and the Ministry of Commerce in the future.
Xu Taiping invited a total of nearly one hundred and fifty people, not to mention that all of these people came, and there were some people who Xu Taiping did not invite, but who had enough identity to take the initiative to come to the Zhao family, and Xu Taiping naturally welcomed these people very much.
Different from the activities held by the Zhao family in previous years, this time Xu Taiping's succession ceremony, Xu Taiping did not do any security check at the door, in Xu Taiping's view, only if he is not confident enough in his own strength, he must engage in security checks, the previous Zhao family, security checks, it seems to be very awesome, in fact, it will give people a feeling of being high, this feeling is not good for those who accept security checks, after all, everyone is a person with an identity, so this time there is no security check, just someone is checking the identity at the door.
This time, part of the security of the ceremony was done by the Zhao family's guards, and the other part was handed over to the South China Tigers special combat team, and it stands to reason that the South China Tigers special combat team cannot be used for this kind of thing, but who made Xu Taiping the honorary captain? In addition, this time a lot of officials also came, and it is reasonable for the South China Tigers special combat team to be responsible for security.
In the middle courtyard, 9:50.
There are not many people in the entire middle courtyard, this middle courtyard can accommodate thousands of people, and the Zhao family has placed thousands of positions because of this, but this time, there are only more than a hundred people, and only one-eighth of the seats are sitting, which looks extremely empty.
Many Zhao family members stood around, watching this scene, and they all felt aggrieved.
More than a year ago, it was also here, the birthday of the old man Zhao, the seat was full, a year later, Xu Taiping succeeded to the head of the Zhao family, and almost no one invited by the Zhao family, what a big difference.
This year was the most difficult year for the Zhao family, many people left the Zhao family, and there were many friends of the Zhao family who no longer had contact with the Zhao family.
In the capital, the Zhao family is equivalent to a virus, and many people are afraid to avoid it.
Of course, there are also some people who like the Zhao family and are willing to surround the Zhao family, these people are like vampires, sucking blood from those indulgent and depraved children of the Zhao family.
The morning sun was dazzling, but the hearts of all the Zhao family members were cold.
"Remember this scene. Zhao Bigan stood beside several young stewards of the Zhao family and said solemnly, " This is the most humiliating scene of our Zhao family for more than 100 years, our head of the family succession ceremony, sent out more than a thousand invitations, only more than 100 people came, and these more than 100 people, and the vast majority of them were invited by the head of the family himself, no family in this world can be strong forever, when we fall into the trough, never give up the idea of going up, we must believe that under the leadership of the head of the family, we will definitely be able to return to the top!"
Many of those stewards didn't know Zhao Bigan, but they felt that Zhao Bigan's words reached their hearts.
Everyone clenched their fists, everyone still had some doubts about Xu Taiping's succession to the position of head of the family, but now, Zhao Bigan's words made them understand that only by following Xu Taiping's footsteps can the Zhao family return to the top.
Ten o'clock.
The succession ceremony began on time.
Zhao Taiheng, as the boss of Xu Taiping's generation, presided over the entire succession ceremony.
The ceremony process is very cumbersome and complicated, and every process has to be carried out, which is completely different from the previous time when Zhao Taiji succeeded him.
The entire middle courtyard to the ancestral house was solemn.
Whether it was the Zhao family or the people who came to watch the ceremony, they could all feel the oppressive aura in the Zhao family.
The bell rang five times, which means that Xu Taiping is the fifth head of the Zhao family in a hundred years.
Xu Taiping, who was dressed in a tunic suit, knelt down and kowtowed three times in front of the ancestors of the Zhao family, and wrote his name with a brush in the column of the head of the Zhao family's family tree.
When Xu Taiping held the family tree in his hand, faced the ancestors of the Zhao family on the photo wall, and read the Zhao family rules aloud, all the Zhao family members could not control their tears from pouring out of their eyes.
The Zhao family, a once powerful family, finally ushered in a new ruler when he was at his most down.
This ruler had been expelled by the Zhao family, and no one could have imagined that he would be willing to return to the Zhao family when the Zhao family was at its most depressed and when he was at his best.
As long as he is a person with a normal brain, he will definitely be able to understand that Xu Taiping's return to the Zhao family this time is completely a loss-making transaction.
But Xu Taiping still came back.
It was difficult for everyone to understand why Xu Taiping wanted to come back, and Xu Taiping did not give any explanation.
He just came back and came to the Zhao family as a savior.
And can he, in the end, save the stormy Zhao family?
A lot of people remain skeptical.
You must know that the powerful Zhao family, under the encirclement and suppression of countless world-class elites, has been suppressed and difficult to raise its head, Xu Taiping, as a new richest man in China, can he really resist so much pressure?
The succession ceremony ended under the heavy and suspicious gaze of everyone.
Xu Taiping didn't say anything exciting, he just calmly attended the succession ceremony, and then announced the first order as the head of the Zhao family.
Zhao Taiji, the former head of the Zhao family, violated the rules of the Zhao family, and will be handed over to the police after today's ceremony, and Zhao Taiji will be tried by law.
This order surprised many people, because the Zhao family has always insisted that family scandals are not publicized, and if there is a scandal in the family, it is all handled within the family.
After Xu Taiping announced the order, Zhao Taiji was immediately pressed out of the Zhao family, and at the same time, the Beijing police, who had been waiting at the door of Zhao's house for a long time, also received Zhao Taiji from the Zhao family.
In order to ensure the smooth escort, the Beijing police mobilized hundreds of police forces, and at the same time, martial law measures were also implemented on the roads during the entire escort process.
In the end, Zhao Taiji was successfully escorted to the Beijing Police Station, and what awaited him was bound to be severely punished by the law.
After Zhao Taiji was escorted away, Xu Taiping announced the second order, he relieved Zhao Yinglong of the identity of the chief housekeeper, and handed him over to the Zhao family's internal affairs department for investigation, at the same time, Xu Taiping appointed a new chief housekeeper, this chief housekeeper is also the person who left the Zhao family that year, his name is Zhao Bigan!
After leaving the Zhao family for decades, Zhao Bigan returned to the Zhao family again, and as soon as he returned to the Zhao family, he became the chief housekeeper of the Zhao family, which should be regarded as the return of the king.
After the second order, Xu Taiping announced the third order, he announced the restoration of Zhao Xianglu's identity as a member of the Zhao family, and restored Zhao Xianglu's position as a steward, as for Zhao Liwei and these people, Xu Taiping directly handed over to Zhao Bigan, Zhao Liwei's level, there is no need for Xu Taiping to issue a special order for him.
After the three orders, the Zhao family's celebration luncheon officially began.
Because there were too few people, there were only about 20 tables on the scene, more than a dozen tables were for guests, and a few tables were for the Zhao family.
For the first time, Xu Taiping sat in the position of the head of the main table, accepting the tribute of those Zhao family members.
After luncheon, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
After Xu Taiping sent all the guests away, he closed the door of the Zhao family and announced the first meeting of the Zhao family as the head of the Zhao family.
The meeting lasted from 2 p.m. until late at night.
Many members of the Zhao family were actually very apprehensive at the beginning of the meeting, because in recent times, many people have indeed done things that violate family rules.
However, Xu Taiping did not punish anyone at the meeting, and the first thing Xu Taiping said was that he would not hold anyone accountable for the fault of the past period of time, but he demanded that from today onwards, everyone must strictly abide by the family rules.
Such a statement made many people put their hearts down at the beginning of the meeting, and expressed their approval of Xu Taiping's rule.
Xu Taiping bought the hearts of many members of the Zhao family with just one sentence, and this kind of behavior of buying people's hearts is too familiar to Xu Taiping.
(Writing this, some emotion, Xu Taiping finally became the new head of the Zhao family, which was designed a long time ago, Xu Taiping returned to the Zhao family as a savior, and in the future, there will be more challenges to meet him.) As for what will happen to the Zhao family in the future, please look forward to it. )
