"Relax, relax."

The voice on the phone was unusually relaxed, as if he was saying something very casual, "It's just a meeting, don't take it that seriously." ”

If those empty chairs were the fuse, then this sentence pushed Rogers to the limit of his patience.

Anyone has a limit of patience, and once they get here, they will blow up.

Rogers' expression was close to hideous, but after all, he still didn't have a seizure, but gave it to Oss.

After all, Oss is the head of the clan.

Muller smiled and said, "Rogers, your control is truly amazing. ”

"Humph!"

Rogers replied angrily, and Rogers said no more.

At this time, Oss listened to the explanation on the phone, "Forgiving Mr. Sect Master, please forgive us for our trivial mistakes, we are already soon, I assure you." ”

"Five minutes."

Oss said bluntly, "In five minutes, if I don't see you, the door to the intra-clan meeting will be closed to the Italian family forever." ”

When the words fell, Oss put it down

His tough attitude made many people present show a slight surprise.

Especially François of France, he didn't seem to expect that the gentle Oss also had a cold and decisive side.

Tang Yue noticed that when François took his gaze away from Oss, his lips moved very slightly.

François spoke lips, and he said, "It's a bit of a suzerain." ”

I have to say that Oss used this trick to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger very well.

Five minutes is not a long time, but it is not a short time.

As the two doors of the conference hall were about to close, a hand suddenly slipped through the crack in the door.

"I'm really sorry for the traffic jam on the road, haha."

The owner of the hand is none other than the head of the Italian family, Giuseppe Morgan.

He played haha with the butler and walked all the way inside.

Osna's grim face finally softened slightly.

Walking up to Oss, Giuseppe put his right fist in his heart and said very politely, "Mr. Sect Master, thank you for waiting. ”

"Hmph, you can get stuck in traffic in the city of Detroit, and you can really say it."

Rogers whispered cool words, not giving Giuseppe face in the slightest.

The aristocracy had to undergo all kinds of excellent etiquette training, but that was for the respectable, when those nobles were angry, there was really no etiquette to speak of;

Besides, refusing to even say a tough word would inevitably be too damaging to the prestige of the sect.

"Rogers."

Oss tilted his head slightly and reminded him.

Immediately after, Oss raised his right hand slightly and said, "Take a seat." ”

If there are hard-line clan members, then Oss naturally can't continue to be tough, otherwise, how can he reconcile the relationship between the two?

Moreover, strictly speaking, the Italian character is free and loose, and the concept of time is very weak, and it is normal for them to be late or late,,。

Anyway, the round table was finally full.

"First of all, thank you all for coming, because it is a meeting, there is no red wine, everyone uses coffee instead of red bar."

Oss stood up, and although he was holding a coffee cup in his hand, he didn't feel awkward at all, but felt that he had a mellow elegance, "Salute to the Morgan family." ”

All raised their glasses" to the Morgan family. ”

Tang Yue observed that each face had a color of pride and pride on it.

For these people, it is a lifelong honor to be able to bear Morgan's surname.

After sitting down, Oss continued, "As for the theme of this meeting, I think everyone already knows that as a clan, we don't want to see the Morgan family divided, even if there is more estrangement between the clan and the clan, we are all clansmen, we should all sit down and talk calmly, let the conflict resolve at the conference table, not let it intensify on the battlefield." ”

François answered very quickly, and he said coldly, "Mr. Sect Master, does the contradiction between us have reached the point of a battlefield?" ”

This is a deliberate misinterpretation of the meaning of Os.

Tang Yue suddenly frowned.

This old man's ability to answer the stubble is really not ordinarily strong.

Oss smiled, but replied very calmly, "The business field, the political field, and even some social parties of the upper class, these are all battlefields, invisible battlefields, can it be said... In the eyes of my uncle, can only the confrontation between armed forces be considered a battlefield? ”

The meaning of this is that François was a martial artist at all.

The more this kind of irony is not light, the more lethal it is.

François pursed the corners of his lips and said, "Of course not." ”

"Then let's move on."

Oss smiled kindly, "Not long ago, Claude of the British division has promised the clan that from now on, the clan will be friendly for generations, there will be no more disputes, and the relationship between the two sides has been mutually beneficial and symbiotic, I believe that it is a very good situation for the clan and the British clan; ”

As he spoke, Os's gaze fell on Claude's.

Claude immediately stood up, bowed politely to Os, and then said, "Yes, I have split my family in England and swear to the noble gods that I will shoulder the responsibility of protecting the clan. ”

Among the four divisions, the rift between the British division and the Zong family appeared the earliest, and the three German, Italian, and French divisions were also separated from the Zong family after seeing the treatment that the British division had received.

Now, the British division has suddenly decreed that they will protect the clan.

The other three heads of the divided families all had incomprehensible expressions.

"Claude, do you understand what it means to protect the clan?"

Muller smiled and said, "That means that from now on, your British division will be loyal to the clan, and that is a different concept from business cooperation." ”

"I understand."

Claude nodded, his tone was very serious, "If I want to be clearer, then I have to accept this explanation, we will be loyal to the clan!" ”

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

The faces of several people darkened.

The reason why they participated in the clan meeting was because they all had their own evil intentions, and none of them really came to pledge allegiance.

Even if you do have to be allegiance, you need to see enough bargaining chips.

Claude is good, and he is directly allegiant.

The British family, which has the deepest grudge against the clan, has expressed its allegiance, so what has become of the other three divisions if they are not loyal?

You must know that many times when the other three divisions show disrespect to the clan, they use the British division as a reason.

Beside Mueller, Morgan let out an ugly sneer, "I heard that Mr. Claude has hugged Mr. Sect Master's thigh before, I don't believe it, it turns out that it's all true." ”

"Please correct your attitude."

Claude was disgruntled, remembering when he was humiliated by this guy before the meeting.

But, for the sake of the order of the meeting, he still swallowed the matter in his stomach.

François's side, there were also clansmen who said, "I'm curious, I heard that the British were accumulating strength to launch a real war against the clan before splitting up, why did they have to be loyal to the clan in a blink of an eye?" ”

And with that, the man also gave his name.

Rashly opening your mouth is an impolite expression.

This man, Henry Morgan, was one of the outstanding young men in the French branch.

Of course, looking at the age of the head of the family, Sulençois, we know that the overall age of the French division is a little older than the other divisions, and Henry looks very mature, and should be seven or eight years older than Oss.

"That war did exist."

Claude's eyes darkened, and he truthfully told the outcome of the war;

In today's technological age, it is almost impossible to hide a war, and Claude and Oss have communicated in this regard before, and have no intention of hiding it.

François said lightly, "We often make promises according to our own hopes, and keep our promises because of our own fears, does Mr. Sect Master want us to be like Claude, and also start to make promises out of our own fears?" ”

"No, it's not."

Claude said ashamedly, "As the defeated party, the courtesy of the Zong family to us is shocking, not only acknowledging the character and cause of death of the head of the Rhine family, but also returning the suicide note left by the head of the Rhine family in the United States to me, this tolerance makes me feel moved." ”

"In this way, Mr. Sect Master is indeed admirable."

François laughed and said, "Claude confirms the last sentence of that sentence, we are faithful to our promises because of our gratitude." ”

In the next second, his smile suddenly converged, and his eyes became as sharp as a knife, "But, Claude, have you ever thought that your gratitude is nothing more than a cheap handout for the Zong family." ”

This sentence immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the Zong family.

Titan said coldly, "Monsieur François, please don't attack the kindness of the sect master with vicious words, among the sect family, only the sect master insists on doing this. ”

François used silence to make a silent sneer.

"Mr. Müller, Mr. Giuseppe, what is your opinion?"

Oss was not angry at François's voice, he always maintained a high degree of cultivation, and those characters who played black faces were handed over to his two brothers, and he only needed to play the role of a kind, rational and tolerant suzerain.

is not only a true role, but also a pre-set positioning.

This is a negotiation technique, and there is nothing wrong with it.

"I don't have an opinion on allegiance to the sect, the only question is, what can I get out of it, Mr. Sect Master, don't think my idea is too realistic, I just don't like to talk nonsense."

When Muller opened his mouth, it seemed that he was eager to ask for benefits, but in fact, he was secretly reminding the German, French, and Italian people not to be confused by their own judgment by the favor received by the British separation.

Only by returning to reality can we remain rational and calm.

Oss smiled and said, "Mr. Müller's straightforwardness has been of great help to the meeting. ”

"Thank you."

Mueller nodded and turned to look at Giuseppe.

All the while, Giuseppe was silent, sitting there like an invisible man.

Oss showed a teasing expression and joked, "Even to give an opinion, Mr. Giuseppe is going to be late?" ”

"Of course not."

Giuseppe shook his head repeatedly, "I just want to stretch for a while, and I'll talk about it when everyone is done; ”

Oss arched his hand, "Everyone is done. ”

"That's good."

No longer in a relaxed state, Giuseppe's face finally became serious, "Tell me my opinion, for our Italian family, it doesn't matter whether we are loyal or not, because we don't like war, even if we keep a distance from the clan, it will not pose a threat, so Mr. Sect Master should understand what I mean." ”

Oss frowned slowly.

Actually, this is already a negative meaning.

And the negative is extremely decisive.

"Monsieur Giuseppe, I am curious about one thing, in the history of the clan, I cannot find any contradiction between the clan and the Italian family, it stands to reason that there should not be a rift between us, why... Do you still have to keep your distance from the clan? ”

"You want to know the answer."

Giuseppe suddenly laughed playfully, "Actually, it's very simple, because we hate the Morgan family, and this world should not have such an old and dilapidated existence as a family." ”
