Chapter 1494

Ten minutes later, the meeting room fell silent and everyone was seated.

Old man Chen and the two, as the witnesses of the Dragon Emperor, sat on the first seat.

And Tan Yimin, as the mayor of Longhai City and an official witness, also sat beside him.

Then there are Duanmu Hai and Duanmu Ci, they are from the Duanmu family.

Although the Duanmu family has completely withdrawn from Longhai this time, none of the people here dare to underestimate the Duanmu family because of this, even Old Man Chen of the Dragon Emperor!

In the end is Xiao Chen, now that his status has been recognized, the leader of the seven major families naturally has his place!

So, he sat next to Lin Nan.

As for the members of the seven major families, they sat on both sides, all looking at Lin Nan.

"You are all acquaintances, so there is no need to introduce yourself."

Lin Nan spoke slowly, trying to make the opening of the meeting as easy as possible.

But he knew in his heart that this meeting...in the end, it would definitely not be easy.

Because there are too many interests involved, and these interests are too amazing!

He had heard from his seniors that during the five-year competition in previous years, even two families that were close to each other would not give in at the meeting!

It can be seen how great this benefit is!

After he exchanged simple greetings, he rushed to the topic.

"At the last nomination meeting, I already mentioned the problems of Ouyang's family and Jiang's family... The court attached great importance to this matter and issued instructions."

When Lin Nan said this, his eyes swept over Ouyang Zhen and Jiang Tiansheng.

Ouyang Zhen's expression remained unchanged. He knew that although Ouyang's family was mentioned this time, it shouldn't be a big problem!

As for who will have problems, everyone here knows it well!

Jiang Tiansheng's expression didn't change too much.

However, Xiao Chen, who was not far away, still saw something from his trembling eyebrows.

For some reason, he looked at Jiang Tiansheng and suddenly felt that the old man was a bit pitiful.

Old and old, but the Jiang family is over!

This is a very cruel thing for an old man who has devoted his life to it.

He thought that Jiang Tiansheng would not come today.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Tiansheng came with a smile on his face.

Xiao Chen secretly admired this alone!

"The hero is late..."

Xiao Chen muttered secretly, subconsciously touched the cigarette.

But when he looked at the people on the conference table, they were all very serious, and none of them smoked, so he took his hand away.

"As the seven major families, they were supposed to contribute to the development of Longhai, but now the court is very dissatisfied, so...the instruction is that the Jiang family be expelled!"

Lin Nan looked at Jiang Tiansheng and said bluntly and slowly.

Hearing this, Jiang Tiansheng's body trembled and his old face turned pale even though Jiang Tiansheng's city was deep and his character was good.

The Jiang family is expelled!

The Jiang family, it's over!

"In addition, after the investigation of the past few days, many people in the Jiang family are involved in the problem..."

Lin Nan continued.

"For these issues, the imperial court will strictly investigate and deal with them."

Jiang Tiansheng didn't speak, his hands on the armrests of the chair were throbbing with veins.

"Mr. Xiao, as the leader of the seven major families, do you have any objections to the court's decision?"

Lin Nan looked at Xiao Chen and asked.

"no disagreement."

Xiao Chen glanced at Jiang Tiansheng and shook his head.

Although he felt that the old man was a bit pitiful, what's wrong with being pitiful? The Jiang family, this time it's really over!

"Mr. Jiang, do you have any objections?"

Lin Nan looked at Jiang Tiansheng again, and asked slowly.

"no disagreement!"

Jiang Tiansheng shook his head slowly and paused every word.

"Since Mr. Xiao and Mr. Jiang have no objections, then the court's decision will be implemented...Mr. Jiang, I hope you will hand over the special rights of the seven families."

Lin Nan looked at Jiang Tiansheng and said.

As the seven major families, they almost control Long Hai's economic lifeline.

At the same time, as the decision makers of Longhai, besides having the right to speak, they also have some rights and interests that ordinary people do not know or even imagine.

It is precisely because of the right to speak and rights that the seven major families will grow stronger and stronger, and few forces can catch up.

And forces like the Zhao family were also supported by the imperial court.

Otherwise, it is impossible!

"Okay, after the meeting is over, I will hand over this part of the rights to Mr. Lin!"

Jiang Tiansheng said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Jiang, don't leave these to me."

Lin Nan shook his head and said.

"Ok?"

Hearing this, many people present were taken aback. What does this mean?

Could it be that the imperial court does not intend to take back this part of the rights?

Or is it necessary to take out this part of the rights and distribute them to everyone?

This is impossible!

Just when everyone was guessing, Lin Nan spoke again.

"The seven major families in Longhai have been established for a hundred years... Now that the Jiang family has been removed, only the six major families remain!"

"..."

No one spoke, they were all listening to Lin Nan.

They were also curious about the six major families and wanted to know how the court arranged them.

Whether to support another family to be in power, or this will be the pattern in the future.

However, the possibility of supporting a family to rise to power is not very great.

After all, the Duanmu family has already completely retreated, so there is no need for the court to support another family.

In the past, the imperial court wanted to support the Zhao family and replace the seven major families in order to deal with the Duanmu family.

Now that the Duanmu family is gone, the imperial court should take back this part of the rights and hold them in their hands to create the greatest value.

In other words, distribute this part of the rights... However, it is not distributed to the seven major families... No, it is not distributed to the six major families, but some official bosses!

"However, after the discussion of the imperial court, the seven major families of Longhai have been established for a hundred years, so they will be preserved..."

When Lin Nan said this, he turned to look at Xiao Chen.

"Mr. Xiao, starting today, one more family will be added to the seven major families in Longhai."

"Oh? Which family to join?"

Xiao Chen was a little curious.

"The Xiao family!"

Lin Nan looked at Xiao Chen and said slowly.

"The Xiao family?"

Xiao Chen was taken aback, Long Hai still has a Xiao family? Why doesn't he know?

Not only him, old man Bai and others were also stunned, why didn't they know there was a Xiao family?

However, they reacted quickly and widened their eyes.

And Xiao Chen also widened his eyes.

The Xiao family?

No way? !

"Xiao's family? Fuck, this is the soup that the imperial court gave Brother Chen... No, this isn't bloody soup, it's clearly meat, and it's a big piece of meat!"

Bai Ye was also dumbfounded, talking to himself.

"That's right, from today onwards, besides the Bai family, Tang family, Su family, Xu family, Qin family and Ouyang family, there will be another Xiao family!"

Lin Nan nodded and showed a few smiles.

"Mr. Xiao... No, Patriarch Xiao, congratulations!"

"..."

Although Xiao Chen had already guessed, but hearing Lin Nan say this, he was still a little dazed.

The Xiao family?

Patriarch Xiao?

This is so...he is alone, how come there is a Xiao family here!

Furthermore, he never believed in the fact that the pie fell from the sky before, even if it did fall, he probably fell into a trap!

But now... such a big pie fell down and hit him on the head.

So much so...he couldn't believe it, how could this pie be edible!

"The Xiao family..."

Not far away, Su Qing looked at Xiao Chen and whispered to herself.

She was also quite uneasy. Before that, she had never considered that there would be another Xiao family.

Now, while she was happy for Xiao Chen, it was a bit complicated.

There is one more Xiao family in Long Hai, so Xiao Chen...is he about to leave the villa?

"The Xiao family... the imperial court is really generous!"

Elder Su beside him muttered secretly.

Not only him, but also Mr. Bai and others.

The Xiao family, this is something no one expected.

How difficult it is for the court to take back this part of the rights!

Now, it was handed over again!

If the mood was the most complicated, then Jiang Tiansheng and... Duanmu Hai and Duanmu Ci!

Jiang Tiansheng looked at Xiao Chen, his body trembling.

This young man who he regarded as the biggest variable, while overthrowing the Jiang family, also built a Xiao family on the "ruins" of the Jiang family?

Duanmuhai also frowned. He also did not expect that the court would make such a decision.

"Damn it!"

Duanmuci looked at Xiao Chen with an ugly expression and gritted his teeth.

"Heh, to put it simply, one person is worth one clan, it has really become a reality! However, it is not the Xiao Ba Clan, but... the Xiao Seven Clan!"

Tang Ming also took aim at Xiao Chen, and chuckled lightly.

"Patriarch Xiao, congratulations."

Tan Yimin looked at Xiao Chen who hadn't recovered yet, and said with a smile.

"No...Brother Lin, is that really what that person said?"

Xiao Chen regained his composure and couldn't help asking.

"yes."

Lin Nan nodded with a smile.

"How about it, isn't it a surprise?"

"Uh, it's indeed a surprise..."

Xiao Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, he really didn't expect that that person would be so generous to him!

Originally, he wanted to have a sip of soup along with it, but in the end... such a big piece of meat was placed in front of him.

Can he not eat the meat delivered to his mouth?

Of course not!

Thinking of what was revealed inside and outside of Guanduan's dialect, Xiao Chen made a decision in his heart.

Now that he has given it away, he will not be polite!

He, Xiao Chen, has never been a polite person!

"Boy, are you silly?"

Old man Chen is obviously one of the insiders. They came today not only to witness the departure of the Duanmu family from Longhai, but also to witness the establishment of the Xiao family!

And Xiao Chen, the patriarch of the Xiao family, is also a member of the Dragon Emperor, so they came here!

"No, it's just a bit of a surprise."

Xiao Chen shook his head, he had already accepted this 'surprise'.

However, he still felt a little pained in his heart.

The Xiao family?

You know, from the moment he came to Longhai, he never thought about staying here forever.

Well now, a Xiao family appeared.

Then how will he go out wandering in the future?

Isn't this...

Suddenly, Xiao Chen opened his eyes wide and became paralyzed. Could it be that that person just wanted to tie himself to Longhai, so that's why he did it?

Immediately, he thought again, if that person really had such an idea, it is estimated that the old man Guan Duanshan would have made some suggestions in it!

"Damn it, how do I feel... This is like a huge pit, just waiting for me to jump into it!"

Xiao Chen felt a little apprehensive, then looked at Lin Nan and asked a question.

"Then what, Brother Lin, this Xiao family... can it be disbanded?"

"what?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, everyone present was dumbfounded.

disband?
