Chapter 282: The Xiao family's infighting
Echeng, Xiao's family.
This was originally just a slightly more famous family, barely considered a wealthy family. The first generation of Xiao Dongliang's old man, who was in a high position in his early years, single-handedly established the status and power of the Xiao family.
He has three sons under his knees, the eldest Uncle Xiao Xiang Hui is in politics, and the second Uncle Xiao is in finance and business, and the two of them are proud of their respective fields and have considerable power and wealth.
In the past year, the Xiao family has been like a fish in water, Xiao Xianghui has become the number one person in Echeng as he wished, and the future at the provincial level can be expected. The Xiao family's Xiao Group, because it occupies a huge stake in Jiangcheng Group, has risen all the way, reaching a maximum of nearly 20 billion.
At that time, the wealth of the Xiao family far exceeded that of Shen Ronghua, the richest man in Echeng, and he could even win the position of the richest man in a province. As long as they are children of the Xiao family, they have made good achievements in all fields of society.
But all this, after the news of Xiao Shu's death came back, suddenly changed dramatically.
First of all, because of the collapse of Jiangcheng Group, the Xiao family's assets have shrunk tremendously. and then the death of the old man Xiao Dongliang. As a result, the Xiao family's connections are unsustainable, after all, they deal with the Xiao family, first, they see the face of the old man Xiao Dongliang, and the second is the weight of the three words Master Xiao. Now that these two people are gone, the Xiao family naturally can't sustain it.
Fortunately, there is official protection, although the Xiao family has suffered oppression and setbacks. Compared to other families, the situation is much better. At least all the relatives and friends, they are safe and sound, and no one can do anything to them.
Today is the 7749th day of the old man's burial, and the Xiao family has a rare gathering, in the old man's villa. After the memorial service, a large family sat in the living room and talked together.
β... Alas, in the past few months, business has been getting worse and worse. Now not only do we have no business, but we also owe the bank a loan of one billion, which is due soon, big brother, can you help me say hello to the bank president and ask them to postpone the completion?"
The second uncle Xiao looked at the uncle on the side as if asking for help.
Without waiting for the uncle to speak, Xiao Ning frowned and said: "Second uncle, don't be joking, my dad has just been in office for half a year, how much has he helped you?, he is now being investigated because of these economic disputes..."
I saw the uncle sigh, shook his head and said: "I can't help with this favor, President Guo is the old man's protΓ©gΓ©, in the past, he only sold the old man's face, and now even if we come to the door, he may not take care of us." β
"What should I do then?" the second uncle was anxious.
Since the news of Xiao Shu's death came back, the second uncle re-accepted the Xiao Group and became the chairman, but since he started, the situation of the Xiao Group has become worse and worse. Originally, the children of the Xiao family could receive at least hundreds of millions of dividends every year, but this year, not only did they have no money, but the funds were almost cut off, and even the principal of the shareholders could not be saved.
In fact, it's no wonder that the second uncle's ability is limited, the main business of the Xiao family is still in the former Jiangcheng Group, and after the Jiangcheng Group collapsed due to force majeure, even the Jiang family, the Huang family, the Zhao family, etc. are powerless, what can a mere Xiao family do?
Not only the second uncle, but also other relatives were also full of sadness.
At this time, Xiao Xu couldn't help but slander: "It's all because Xiao Shu is not good, he just let go like this, leaving such a big mess for my father, it's just going to kill people." β
"Xiao Xu. Uncle frowned and motioned for him to shut up.
But Xiao Xu continued: "Uncle, it was originally true, my grandfather was still there before." If you don't let us say, now that grandpa is gone, why can't I say a word about him?"
"It is said that Xiao Shu is awesome, since the last annual meeting, he has basically not taken care of our family, his tail has been cocked to the sky, where is there still our group of relatives in his eyes. β
After Xiao Xu finished speaking, the second aunt also stood up and hugged each other: "That is, when he was majestic before, we didn't get the light, and now he is dead and uneasy, which affects our whole family." Although our Xiao Group didn't do so big at the beginning, wasn't it also safe and stable? If it weren't for Xiaoshu borrowing billions from us that time, and then we didn't pay it back, it was just converted into shares of Jiangcheng Group, and we wouldn't have any reason to do it...
"Alas, there is no way, who let the old man spoil him the most during his lifetime?" the second uncle shook his head helplessly.
Their family set this precedent, and many relatives next to them nodded and complained that Xiao Shu was not.
Even the eldest aunt wanted to take the opportunity to count a few words, but under the uncle's signal, none of the four of them spoke.
Su Su, as Xiao Shu's younger sister, knelt alone in front of the old man's spirit and burned paper money, and her tears turned to ashes inch by inch.
Hear the words and words of relatives. Su Su's heart was cold.
"Why do you speak ill of your brother?!"
In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore, so Su Shu stood up and shouted at the group of relatives.
"Su Su, we are not talking bad about Xiaoshu, we are arguing on the basis of reason, this is what your brother did wrong. Xiao Xu Zhenzhen has words. "If Xiaoshu hadn't taken the billions and didn't pay them back, how would we have ended up in this situation. β
"Hmph!" Su Shujiao snorted, "Although my brother took the money and didn't pay it back, but when Jiangcheng Group was established later, Sister Yunxi came from Jiangcheng specially, right? All of you voted and finally decided to take a stake, what does this have to do with my brother?!"
"Also, after becoming a shareholder, Jiangcheng Group has given us huge dividends every quarter, when you take the money and get soft. Why don't you say a bad word about my brother? Now that you have lost money, and you treat me as an enemy, won't your conscience hurt?!"
"And the second uncle, you have always been dissatisfied with my brother, to put it bluntly, don't you just hate him for removing your chairman in the first place?"
Although Su Su is young, he is very sensible. After saying this, everyone was speechless.
The second uncle's family was even more angry, and the second aunt said with a gloomy face:
"Su Su, how do you speak!"
"I'm just telling the truth. Su Su's face was expressionless.
"Alright. Seeing the tense appearance of everyone, the uncle finally spoke, and he looked at everyone. "I don't want to say a few words, things have become like this, neither what we want to see, nor what Xiaoshu wants to see, it can only be said that disaster fell from the sky, and there is no way to do it. Instead of complaining here. It's better to find a way to tide over the difficulties. β
"Big brother... You put it lightly, a whole billion ... Where are we going to make it? The second uncle lowered his head and said.
β... Why don't you go to the Shen family to borrow some?" the uncle muttered.
When the second uncle heard this, he sneered and said, "Big brother, I'm afraid you have forgotten, why did the Shen family suddenly show favor at the beginning, it was all because of the little book." Since Xiaoshu is gone, Shen Ronghua's attitude has been much more indifferent, and I have looked for him several times, but it is useless. β
"In my opinion, we can only go to Jiangcheng once and ask the big guy surnamed Lin for help. β
The second uncle said slowly.
"Which guy is surnamed Lin?" someone asked.
"Who else could it be. It's the martial arts master called Lin Tatian, isn't it because he is pressuring the Jiangcheng Group to fall?" someone replied.
The Xiao family knows a little bit about the great changes that took place in Jiangcheng this year, but all the forces that are close to Xiao Shu have been suppressed, and I heard that many people have died, and the mastermind behind all this is Lin Tatian. Even the Xiao family's current hardship is closely related to Lin Tatian.
Lin Tatian was like a Mount Tai, pressing on top of the Xiao family's head, although he didn't make a move on the Xiao family. But it made the Xiao family breathless, and it was almost difficult to see the light of day.
A long time ago, the second uncle proposed to meet Lin Tatian and explain to him face to face that in fact, the Xiao family and Xiao Shu had little to do with each other. But he was angrily reprimanded by the old man.
"Second brother, are you serious?" the uncle frowned.
"Of course I'm serious. The second uncle's eyes widened. With a serious face, "I heard that Shen Ronghua went to Lin Tatian a few months ago, and now the business is getting bigger and bigger, and he is about to go outside the province." β
"This year, as long as it is against Lin Tatian. Which one has a good end? The Tang family and the Qin family in Jiangcheng were either almost wiped out at first, but because they took refuge in Lin Tatian, they suddenly came back to life. β
"So many people have done this, why can't we do it? Xiaoshu and Lin Tatian's grudge, that's their business. What does it have to do with us? Besides, the little scholar is dead, so we can't let the Xiao family take the blame for him!"
The more the second uncle spoke, the more excited he became, and finally the whole person stood up, like Dou E who was full of grievances.
Everyone present, you look at me, I look at you, they are obviously shaken.
They all looked at Xiao Xianghui, the top uncle, waiting for him to make up his mind.
"Dad..."Xiao Ning shouted in a low voice, "You can reprimand the second uncle a few words." β
"......." Uncle was silent, and then said slowly:
"Xiao Ning, in fact, many people agree with this idea, because the old man has a stubborn temper. But now it seems that this is not the way to go. β
The old man is not here, the uncle is the head of the Xiao family, even he said so, and the others have nothing to say.
"Hahaha, the eldest brother is right. What time is it now, we still don't want to find a way to save ourselves, can't we wait for the little book to come and save us?" the second uncle laughed proudly.
"I have Zhao Gongzi's phone number here, Zhao Gongzi and Lin Tatian have a close relationship, I asked him to help talk about it, and see if Mr. Lin is willing to see us. β
After speaking. The second uncle took out his mobile phone, and in front of everyone's expectant eyes, the phone dialed.
The phone didn't work.
"Huh, that's weird?"
The second uncle looked puzzled, and made several phone calls in succession, asking about other people, and finally called Zhao Wuye.
After saying a few words to Zhao Wuye, the second uncle's face stiffened, and he put down his mobile phone stiffly.
"What? Could it be that Mr. Lin didn't agree?" the uncle asked nervously.
"It's not..."The second uncle was stunned, shook his head and said:
"Lin, Lin Tread... He's dead..."
