Chapter Twenty-Nine: Poking

After the necessary social processes for the banquet were completed, Taylor and the bosses of the Guild left the table and went to the conference room of the mansion together, leaving only their men and children still chatting and toasting with each other.

Everyone came to the conference room of Taylor's mansion, where there was a huge long table, and everyone consciously sat on the left and right sides of the long table in the order of their family's strength in the guild.

The whole process was quiet and terrifying, and now it was an internal meeting with no outsiders, and the anger that most of the people present had suppressed during the banquet was about to explode at this moment.

The first to speak was Dick, the boss of the Elinor family, who was one of the earliest initiators of the Alliance, and it was he who took the lead in taking charge of the Alliance.

Dick's expression was very serious, although he was very dissatisfied in his heart, but his tone was as calm as possible when he spoke: "Taylor, you did such a thing on your own initiative, don't you think you need to give us an explanation?" ”

Taylor did not panic at all in the face of the forced and angry crowd on the field, and said with a smile: "Mr. Dick, please make it clear, what did I do on my own initiative?" ”

Taylor's pretended ignorant attitude completely made Dick angry, and his usual demeanor completely disappeared, and he yelled at Taylor: "Don't play stupid with me, as the head of the Alliance, your every move represents the attitude of the Alliance, you openly accept the number one hanging red of the Ten Old Men, do you want to go to war directly with the Ten Old Men!" ”

Dick spoke for everyone present, and in their opinion there was no difference between standing in a hostile position with the Ten Old Men and seeking death.

"Yes."

Taylor only said this one word, without the slightest hesitation, without a word of justification, only one word in response.

Dick's heart suddenly tightened, clutching his chest and looking very painful, and for a moment Taylor was speechless.

The people around him wanted to see how he was doing, and Dick waved his hand lightly and said, "I'm fine." ”

Dick was seventy-two years old, and no one had dared to speak to him like that for decades.

But the one who choked him today is Mr. Yes, who is recognized by everyone, and Taylor, who he thinks is the easiest to control.

The faces of several bosses in the front row are not very good-looking, they chose Taylor because they didn't want to represent the alliance themselves, and on the other hand, because Taylor knows how to judge the situation and never take the initiative to conflict with people, they feel that Taylor is a person who is very easy to be swayed by power.

But the scene in front of them makes them feel that they are wrong, Taylor is not only not an easy person to control, but can even be said to be a madman, a madman who drags everyone to die together.

"Taylor, even if you have a mature strategy, you should bring it up and let everyone discuss it together, it's really a bit inappropriate for you to make a fait accompli before you inform us." Simon, who was sitting in the front row, said.

Taylor's-for-tat almost made Dick angry with a heart attack, and Simon said this to give Taylor a step to continue explaining.

Simon is also one of the bosses of several powerful families in the Alliance, and he is also the brainchild in the Alliance, and he also came up with the idea of pushing Taylor in the first place, with his understanding of Taylor, Taylor will definitely not be the kind of person who makes decisions as soon as his brain is hot.

Taylor had been waiting for an opportunity to explain to the crowd, but not with the old and old people like Dick.

After a moment of silence, Taylor said, "The reason why I did this is because we have to go to war with the Ten Old Men now, and the news of Ku'er came very suddenly, and I had to kill it first. ”

After listening to Taylor's remarks, everyone present also began to discuss.

After a while, Simon continued: "Tell me your reasons. ”

"The Ten Old Men have developed to their current scale in just a dozen years, and in these ten years, there are also forces that choose to confront the Ten Old Men, but these organizations have been annexed or eliminated in the end. If you don't believe it, you can look at the birthplace of the Ten Old Men, on the continent of Youlubian, there are no other mafia forces at all, so peace is only temporary. Now that the Ten Old Men have occupied half of the Efa Continent, we can't avoid this battle after all, should we wait for the Ten Old Men to prepare for us to rush into battle? ”

Dick on the side had already relieved himself, snorted, and said contemptuously: "What you said is a bit crooked, but this does not justify your arbitrariness. ”

Dick's anger at Taylor was more due to the fact that his authority as one of the most important decision-makers in the Guild had been challenged.

In Dick's eyes, Taylor, the titular leader of the Alliance, was only worthy of being a pawn in his control, and now that the pawn was out of control, he didn't mind giving a little color first.

Taylor was still as kind as ever, and after smiling slightly, he said, "Mr. Dick, as I said before, the news about the explosion of Kuer did come very suddenly. There is another reason I didn't want to say, but since you have repeatedly persecuted it, I will be blunt. ”

"With all due respect, there are not a few people in the alliance who can get by and sit back and watch the success or failure, and some of them have already contacted the ten old men in private. You can ask yourself, when the day comes when the Ten Old Men take the initiative to do something to us, how many of you here will fight against the Ten Old Men at all costs? I'm afraid that the first unlucky person at that time will be me, the leader of the False Alliance. ”

As soon as Taylor said this, the atmosphere in the conference room instantly became eerily quiet.

Everyone didn't expect Taylor to even dare to say such a thing.

Dick's face beside him also turned from red to white in an instant, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he held back.

Taylor also said what he was thinking, although there was Taylor, a substitute for the dead, but after the collapse of the alliance, it would be impossible for all the core forces to be used by the ten old men, and it was not up to the ten old men to decide who was most qualified to be a dog at that time.

In fact, everyone understands this truth, but it is another thing to understand it in their hearts and dare to pierce it in front of everyone.

"You don't have to look so ugly, it's not a shame to protect yourself. But again, isn't it so hard for me to make a decision for the Alliance? ”

"Mr. Taylor, I don't want to judge your assertiveness, but you're underestimating that kind of statement."

It was a relatively small family boss sitting in the back rows, and after he finished speaking, the scene gradually boiled, and many people sitting in the middle and back supported this person's point of view.

Only a dozen people in the front row remained silent.

This is indeed a good opportunity to show loyalty, after all, bragging never costs anything.

It was Simon who broke the silence first.

"Taylor, you must have a way, let's take a look."
