After all, Xiang Zhicheng is a veteran and is not easily provoked. He immediately said, "According to the rules of the family meeting, it's time to vote next."
He paused and continued, "However, voting requires seven core members of the family. Now even if you, the head of the family, are added, the number is not enough."
There is actually something wrong with what he said. The people who voted for this forced abortion they arranged must have been prepared. But with things happening to this point, the person who arranged it will probably not come forward now. There are actually seven people in the room at the moment, but Xiang Taiyuan, the younger generation, has no real power and is not considered a core member of the family, so he is not qualified to vote.
Xiang Shaoqin opened his eyes at this time and patted his wife's hand. Zhang Yuanju withdrew her hand from massaging her husband. Xiang Shaoqin turned back and smiled at his wife. Then he turned his head and glanced at everyone, and finally fixed his gaze on the face of Xiang Taiyuan beside him and said
"Taiyuan can vote. I have appointed him as the new leader of the Xiang Group."
Everyone was shocked again. Xiang Taiyuan stood up at this time and said, "My uncle signed the document yesterday under the witness of lawyers and notary public officials, and gave me the position of chairman of Xiang Group."
Everyone knows what this sentence means, but everyone can't believe their ears. Giving up the position of chairman shows that Xiang Shaoqin has completely delegated power and will no longer interfere in business affairs. He only retained the position of the head of the family, but why did he do this? He had obviously expected what happened today, and he had already won, so why did he give up the benefits.
The answer was soon revealed. Zhang Yuanju walked out and took a four or five-year-old boy from the woman at the end of the crowd.
Zhang Yuanju returned to the room and said, "His name is Xiang Changan. He is four years old this year. He is my husband's son and the future head of the Xiang family."
At this moment, everyone was no longer so shocked, and everyone was a little numb. Inexplicably, Xiang Shaoqin's lineage had a male heir. And even though they have grown so big, they actually don’t know anything about it. At this moment, everyone suddenly realized that this group of people was indeed trash, they knew nothing, and they were still thinking of carving up the Xiang family. Zhang Yuanju said nothing about managing the company in these years. She was away from home all year round seeking medical advice. She thought she was ill and had no husband at her bedside for a long time. Unexpectedly, he went to take care of his son.
Before anyone could say anything, Zhang Yuanju took out a DNA test report. For a big family like theirs, they were all very familiar with this kind of test report. Zhang Yuanju doesn’t need any introduction.
"If you have any doubts, you can see for yourself. Chang'an is completely the flesh and blood of my husband and me."
Of course no one will look at it at this time. If they put it out like this, they are naturally not afraid of you looking at it.
Xiang Taiyuan said, "I have an agreement with my uncle. In the next twenty years, I will be in charge of the family group's business and he will not interfere. After ten years, he will give me 2% of Xiang's shares. Twenty years later I will hand over the group to my younger brother Chang'an, and he will give me another three percent worth of Xiang's shares. Of course, I must bring profits to the company during these twenty years. My uncle has the right to supervise the company's financial department."
Everyone now understands that no matter how the situation develops this time, it will be a dead end for them, and the head of the family has made the most appropriate arrangements.
Uncle Fifteen, Xiang Zhicheng sighed and said, "Okay, people in the room can vote now."
Xiang Zhicheng stood up at this time, took out a palm-sized wooden token, and said with a serious face, "This temporary family meeting is about impeachment of the head of the family, Xiang Shaoqin. The voting is now starting. If you deny this proposal, please raise your hands."
In almost an instant, six of the seven people in the room raised their hands, and everyone turned their attention to the person who did not raise his hand, Xiang Shaoqi.
Xiang Shaoqi is still a little confused now. He still doesn't quite understand how all this turned out like this.
In fact, there are already six votes. It doesn't matter whether Xiang Shaoqi raises his hand or not. But everyone is just curious. One party was completely defeated before the vote. Why is this *** still hesitating now?
In the end, Xiang Shaoqi didn't raise his hand, but that didn't matter anymore. The impromptu meeting quickly moved on to the next topic.
Someone needs to be responsible for this incident. Zhang Yuanju had already
Having said that, Xiang Shaoqin will die if he loses this time. The one who seizes power will not allow the previous person in power to live. Vice versa, those who seize power will also pay a price for their failure.
Just like rebels in ancient times usually ended up killing the nine tribes, rebellion is always the riskiest thing in the world.
Everyone is now turning their attention to Xiang Shaoqin. It is his right to deal with these people now.
"Eighth brother found his way back and everything is as usual. Fifth brother, who drugged the head of the family, committed an unforgivable crime. He is now incorporated into the Xiang family's secret guard and will be responsible for the Xiang family's intelligence and peripheral security from today on. The third brother has been imprisoned in the family dungeon for five years. Do you have any objections?"
This kind of punishment is actually very light. It does not kill people, does not drive these people and their families out, and does not involve others. The punishment was limited to the three people who caused the trouble, and one of them was not even punished but was rewarded. Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
All eyes were turned to Xiang Shaoshu at this time. The so-called secret guards of the Xiang family were actually the outermost security and intelligence work of the Xiang family. To put it bluntly, they were the death squads. They were the group with the highest mortality rate in the entire Xiang family. Everyone is worried that Xiang Shaoshu will be dissatisfied with this and make things that have been settled change again.
In fact, everyone is worrying too much. Xiang Shaoshu's son has become the chairman of the Xiang Group. What else is he dissatisfied with?
At this time, another person still made a discordant sound.
"I don't accept it. I don't want to go to the dungeon. I will go to the death squads. Even if I die for my family, it is better than suffering in the dungeon for five years."
"No, third brother, your temperament is too easy to be encouraged and manipulated by others. Next, the family will face all kinds of enemies. You go and sharpen your temper."
"Then why can fifth brother go?"
"His son is now one of the most important figures in the family. Of course he will do his best. Right, Lao Wu."
The Xiang family's family changes have come to an end, but the Xiang family's disaster tonight is far from over.
...
"Old lady, it's bad, the Tong family and the Hu family have been wiped out."
The old lady of the Zhang family was about to rest when she suddenly sat up from the bed.
"Is the news true?"
"Of course, just fifteen minutes ago."
Zhang Nian'er, who had always had a playful smile, now truly felt the cruel reality. Huge pressure came to him, and he rarely became nervous.
"Girl, please tell me clearly what is going on."
Zhang Nian'er explained the information received in detail.
After listening, Mrs. Zhang said nothing. After all, we all belong to a big family in Shanghai. No matter how we make trouble in Shanghai, we are all from Shanghai after all. Now that the Tong family and the Hu family have been wiped out like chickens and dogs, it is inevitable that there will be some feeling of sadness.
"Old lady, I want to go to Xiang's house."
Mrs. Zhang came back to her senses and scolded. "You're not allowed to go."
"Why, old lady."
"Why, why, what is the situation now? To be honest, old woman, I can't see clearly, but I know that the situation in Shanghai is extremely dangerous now. All we can do is trust those boys."
"The Xiang family has my friends."
"Girl, let me ask you, are you going to go alone, or are you going to go there with a group of people?"
Zhang Nianer stopped talking.
"It won't make any difference if you go alone. If you go with others, it will destroy your brother Qi's arrangements."
As she said this, Mrs. Zhang had already put on her clothes.
"Wake up everyone at home. Don't sleep today."
"Yes, old lady."
"Also, please help me contact my old friends in Shanghai and wake them up. If I don't sleep, the whole of Shanghai will also stop sleeping. Everyone should get up and take care of their homes."
...
The Xiang family members were all in the ancestral hall at the moment. There was no incense or special preparation of tributes. There were about a hundred Xiang family members, under the auspices of the fifteenth uncle, standing in front of the tablets of their ancestors with their heads lowered.
Mu
Zishan didn't understand the rules of these big families, and he wasn't a member of the Xiang family, so he couldn't enter the ancestral hall, but he didn't resent the way descendants revere their ancestors at all.
Uncle Fifteen recounted today's events as if he was doing a self-examination. Then as the chief culprit of today's family change. The three of them knelt at the front. From time to time, Uncle Fifteen would ask them to kowtow to apologize, and then slap a few people on the back with a ruler that looked old.
Muzishan watched everything happening in the ancestral hall with interest.
Suddenly, Mu Zishan looked up at the gate of Xiang's garden. He found that a master was outside the gate at this moment. He was familiar with this Qi Ji, and he had just competed with this person not long ago.
Muzishan suddenly felt a bad feeling, why did they come. He came to the entrance of the ancestral hall and exchanged a few words with Xiang Rong before heading towards the gate.
What was stopped outside the gate of Xiang's house was a luxury car, at least it used to be, but now it was almost a pile of junk.
Sun Si looked inside with a stern look. There were four people in the car, two older and two younger. The driver was a woman. She was lying on the steering wheel and seemed to be in a coma from exhaustion. There was a little girl in the co-pilot who didn't know whether she was alive or dead. A big man was lying in the back row covered in blood.
Zhao Da and others stood aggressively by the car doors, guarding against sudden revolt by the people in the car.
At this time, the car door opened, and the person who got out of the car to negotiate was a little boy about seven or eight years old. Apart from walking a little lame, he didn't have many scars.
Zhao Si asked, "What are you doing here? You are not welcome here."
When the boy came up, he first clasped his fists and saluted, and then said in a leisurely manner, "Everyone, I am Hu Haidong, the second son of the Hu family. Our Hu family was wiped out by gangsters. Before he died, my father asked my master Ni Po to help me deliver your Xiang family. .”
The child said this calmly and logically, which made Zhao Da and others feel chills behind their backs. This child frightened them a little. He could still be so calm after his family was wiped out. Most adults are not like this. Ability, is this still a person?
The boy continued, "My uncle is driving the car. The children of the Tong family are dying. The Tong family has also been wiped out. My uncle worked hard to get us here. Please let us go see Uncle Xiang." "
At this time, Zhao Da also knew the seriousness of the matter. He had been in the Xiang family for more than five years, so he naturally knew what the relationship between the Tong family and the Hu family had been with the Xiang family. He wanted to welcome people in first, but at the moment they were just helping. The doorkeepers cannot open the door at will without the owner's instructions.
At this moment, the huge iron door was opened, and Mu Zishan walked out of the door.
