Chapter 418: The general trend has been decided
After waiting quietly for a few hours, Zhao Sidong finally issued an order to let all the elders go to the Sakata Takuma Palace together. (For the latest chapter reading, please visit)
Of course, Yosuke Sakada also wants to be involved.
And Zhao Sidong, accompanied by Sakata Jieren, sat leisurely in a small pavilion to drink and admire the moon.
The people of the island country have always preferred the Jiangnan water town-style gardens in China, and they have made a lot of effort to study in this regard, and the results are that the headquarters of the major families in the island countries are basically all arranged according to that pattern.
If it weren't for the obvious island characteristics in some details, it would almost make people think that it was a Chinese garden in the Tang Dynasty.
While drinking the sake of the island country, tasting the freshest Kobe beef and Seto sashimi, Zhao Sidong sighed.
The life of the people of this island country is still quite hard, not to mention the wine, sake is not much different from beer, and they claim to be the most famous food except for a little new in the method, really do not eat anything special.
It is no wonder that after all, the area of the island country is so large, but the population is really a lot, so the per capita resource occupancy is relatively much scarce, and it cannot be compared with China.
In this world, when it comes to food, it seems that there is really no country that can compare with China - although there are many 'food powers' in Western countries, there is no one that can really shake China's status.
It is undeniable that some delicacies in Western countries are indeed very good, but their biggest drawback is that there is rarely a complete system, and there is no emphasis on the unity of nature and man, which is the most fatal place.
But then again, even Chinese cuisine is not as good as it is in Zhao Sidong's eyes, because he has seen a large number of delicacies in the fairy world in his previous life, and any dish brought to the earth can become the most classic dish - the problem is that the ingredients for most delicacies cannot be found on the earth at all, so even if he has a recipe in hand, he can't make it successfully.
After sighing for a while, Zhao Sidong summoned out a wisp of divine consciousness and stretched out towards the place where the head of the family lived, and soon 'saw' what was happening there.
Sakata's face flushed, his chest rising and falling, his hands on his knees, and he looked at everyone in front of him viciously.
The Great Elder, the Second Elder, the Third Elder...... Even the eldest son, whom he values the most!
"Why, can anyone tell me why?
Looking at him like a mad tiger, the Great Elder Sakata Sigo also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, in terms of generation, he is Sakata Takuma's own uncle, and he is also the only surviving previous generation, but if there is a possibility, he will not do anything to betray the head of the family.
Pity...... The situation is stronger than people, and no matter how loyal he is, he can't compete with his desire for life.
Moreover, he vaguely felt that if the result of the arrangement of the mysterious lord was judged, it seemed to be more conducive to the development of the entire family - after all, the strength of that lord was too terrifying, if he could really hug his thighs, would the Sakata family still need to be afraid of anyone in the future?
He tried to speak several times, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
There is no way, he always says to the head of the family: You should retire quickly, and give up the position of the head of the family to your second son, so that the family will flourish......
If they really say that, they don't know if the head of the family will die of anger, all they need now is the abdication of the head of the house, not the life of the head of the house.
Takuma Sakata vented to himself for a while, and finally calmed down.
He swept everyone with his tired eyes, and finally fixed his gaze on the eldest son, and asked lightly, "Yosuke, have you really decided?"
Yosuke Sakata nodded vigorously, "Yes, Father-sama!" I voluntarily renounce my status as the first in line of succession, and at the same time suggest that the status of the intermediary be promoted to the first in line of succession!"
Sakata Takushi glanced at him steadily, saw the undodging and determined gaze in his eyes, and finally nodded slowly, "Okay, since you all think so, then I won't say anything more, and I will announce this in public at the family meeting tomorrow morning." ”
Unexpectedly, the Great Elder Sakada Siwu suddenly said coldly: "I also ask the head of the family to sign the document immediately, in case there is any accident in this matter." ”
Sakata's breath froze, and then his gaze became cold.
In fact, he really planned to pretend to agree first, and then send his henchmen to find out what was going on at night, and then try to deal with it.
It's a pity that his plan to delay the army has no chance to be implemented at all, the Great Elder's request completely seals his retreat, and once the internal document stamped with the Great Seal of the head of the family is issued, he wants to deny or repent, but it is not so easy.
"Okay, good, good! I'll sign, I'll sign!"
was forced into a desperate situation, no matter how much wisdom Sakata pondered, now he could only swallow his anger and admit defeat.
There is no way, according to the relevant regulations of the family, once the elders collectively initiate a review for impeachment, then the incumbent head of the family must automatically resign!
If it really comes to that point, the lonely head of the family will definitely be reduced to fish and meat to be slaughtered.
Therefore, he can only compromise, on the one hand, to keep his power unchanged, and on the other hand, he also wants to see what kind of medicine they are selling in the gourd.
Not long after, a document stamped with the seal of the head of the family was freshly released, and it soon spread throughout the Sakata family.
Everyone was surprised and inexplicable, because in their impression, the eldest young master Yosuke Sakata had already been the next master of the family, on the contrary, the second young master Yosuke Sakata had long been identified as a rice worm who ate and waited for death, even if anyone in the family might take over the position of head of the family, he would not be his turn.
However, now in this document personally signed by the head of the family, the eldest young master Yosuke has stepped down as the first heir in line and has become a middle-level member of the family, while the second young master has become the new first heir in line and has become the object of full assistance from the seven elders...... What a mud horse this is!
Prior to this, the vast majority of the family members believed that Yosuke Sakata would be the new head of the family, so they showed favor to him early in the morning, hugged their thighs in various ways, and although they did not disdain Sakata Suke, they did only maintain superficial respect, and no one took him seriously in private. If it weren't for some generals and retainers following him, maybe he would be no different from an ordinary family member.
The ups and downs of life are so exciting!
However, they really underestimated the drama of the situation.
Early the next morning, Takuma Sakata, accompanied by the seven elders and the eldest son, summoned the heads of all the properties under the family's name, and announced in public that from now on, the second son, Susuke Sakada, will officially take over all the positions of the eldest son, Yosuke Sakada, and become the second most powerful person in the entire Sakada family.
This is not nothing, the point is that on the morning of the third day, the current head of the family, Takuma Sakata, suddenly fell ill while having a business meeting with a Citigroup guest, and under the double torture of heart disease and high blood pressure, he was directly admitted to the ICU (intensive care unit) and lost the ability to see things.
So, under such circumstances, Suketo Sakata, who was the first in line to the throne, took office and took on the important role as the acting head of the family.
In the case that the outside world is unanimously not optimistic about him, Sakata Suketo is like a divine help, and quickly handles several quite difficult problems in a row, and suddenly erstands his prestige.
In addition, the seven elders and Yosuke Sakata stood behind him at the same time to support him and provide him with various advisers, so it didn't take a few days for people to subconsciously accept this fact, and when Sakata Suke people were mentioned, they would always unconsciously refer to him with the title of 'head of the Sakada family' that was only used for Sakata Takuma before.
Things are going on step by step along the rhythm set by Zhao Sidong, and when Sakata Suketo really and completely controls the entire Sakata family, it is time to make the next step.
......
On the other side of the world, in Citigroup, Sun Qianqian and Yang Liying began to implement their plan after discussing with Ma Ying.
This plan is not complicated, at the beginning, it was still organizing various angel club activities as usual, and from time to time small bottles of angel dew would be distributed to members during the event.
How small is a small bottle?
The bottles that people usually use for eye drops are almost the same size as that.
In other words, the angel dew that members of the Angel Society can usually get is only ten milliliters at most.
After her application was approved and she became a probationary member of the Angel Club, Yumi Noma has been very active in organizing various activities, and she has not missed almost every event.
So, she quickly accumulated more than a dozen samples of Angel Dew in her hands, and she transferred the liquid in those small bottles in her hand to a relatively large container, and then handed over most of them to the inspectors in the family.
If the work of the inspectors can crack the ingredients of Angel Dew and reverse study the formula of Angel Dew, then she will be the first hero!
"Nani? Failed again! This ...... How is this possible!" Noma Yumei threw down her phone with a dull look and muttered, in the call that had just ended, the family reminded her very meaningfully, don't be complacent just because you have achieved a little success, otherwise you may make a wrong judgment at any time.
She knows too well what those people in the family are, although she doesn't say it explicitly, but she is sarcastic both openly and secretly.
It's no wonder that if nothing goes wrong with this mission, the amount of Yuki's contribution to Noma is absolutely unimaginable!
"Hmph, a group of wastes who only know how to be jealous of meritocracy, but they are not willing to work hard! Sooner or later, one day, I will sweep you all out of the house, so that you will lose the superior conditions on which you live, I see what else you can do!"
