Just when there was a commotion in the conference room, the closed door of the conference room was suddenly opened.

"Everyone, I've been waiting for a long time. The fog is too heavy and I'm late." A male voice that sounded very magnetic, polite, and with a strong accent resounded throughout the conference room.

It feels as if this voice is the final word.

Those who were speaking at first fell silent and looked at the door of the conference room, respectfully waiting for the speaker to enter with a leader-like look.

The person who spoke was naturally Viscount Vida.

He walked in slowly from the door, his pace was very leisurely, which was very consistent with the pace of the Reims court taught by Farr. It was unhurried and orderly, giving him a noble and natural feeling.

He was also very satisfied with the atmosphere in the conference room at the moment. It was very quiet, and he felt like he was completely shocked.

Even though he is just a director, at this moment, he looks like a real chairman.

"For those who don't know, they think you are the chairman." At this moment, a discordant voice rang out. It was Talina. She spoke with a cold face, crossed her arms, and was completely dissatisfied.

Give Vader some face.

Viscount Vida's momentum was a little stagnant, but he immediately laughed again and did not engage in such a verbal argument with Talina at all, or in other words, he simply ignored her.

This was also his strategy before coming. Anyway, Talina is basically a junior who relies on her father to get the upper hand. There is no need to give her a sense of presence. This will be more conducive to the final operation.

Just be more sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued now. Let’s see if you can still speak!

Viscount Vida sneered in his heart.

"Everyone, let's have a meeting." He continued to speak, speaking to everyone with a master's attitude.

No one objected.

The main thing is that there is nothing to object to this kind of thing, and it is indeed time to hold a meeting.

But in this way, it became more and more like he was the host of the meeting.

"Then, let's move on to the first topic." Just as everyone was sitting down and preparing to start the meeting, the secretary of the merchants association walked in.

This secretary is called Henry. He was originally the chairman of the board of directors, Mike Barr, and he was an old man who had been with him for decades. He must have been a pin left by Mike Barr in the merchants association to look after his hometown for him.

But as Mike Barr may die in the stormy sea, Secretary Henry's attitude has become ambiguous.

Not long ago, he had become Viscount Vida's man, and Viscount Vida promised that after the matter was completed, he could still be the secretary.

So he immediately announced the first topic:

"Who will succeed the position of Acting Chairman?"

Mike Barr may be dead, but no one dares to be the first to say this, so what everyone is discussing is the succession to the position of acting director vacated after Don Estan disappeared.

This is a quite reasonable topic. After all, a snake cannot survive without a head. The Merchant Association is such a large organization and the acting chairman has disappeared for so long. It is time to find someone to take this position.

After all, in the past six months, due to the disappearance of Don Estan, the entire merchant association has been somewhat shut down.

"I think before that, we need to discuss who will succeed the vice chairman position, right?" At this moment, someone first put forward a different opinion.

"Yes, Tang has been missing for so long, the position of vice chairman cannot remain empty!"

"That's right!"

These people were talking one after another as if Talina who was sitting there didn't exist.

No one spoke for Talina, everyone in the audience was either irritating or watching indifferently.

Viscount Vida smiled to himself, little girl, you are still far behind in fighting me, who will help you now?

"Ahem... I think Miss Talina can do it. After all, she is Tang's daughter." Just when a group of people were surrounding Talina, a voice sounded unconfidently.

Rioco quietly raised his hand and said.

Rioco's status in the merchant association is also very special. Because he has Flint behind him, no one in the association dares to offend him easily. But he is also a good person and knows his own rights and has no fight.

With Flint in mind, he would care about everything and would not speak easily, unless it was when his interests were concerned, and as long as he spoke, he would basically pass and support it.

This time, everyone still hesitated after hearing his voice.

I heard a few days ago that Rio was lending money to Talina, and now it has been confirmed. What, is Flint also planning to compete for the power of the Merchants Association?

"Rioco, have you handled your own affairs? I heard that you offended the Nassau Governor's Palace, is it true?" At this moment, Viscount Vida spoke up and broke the brief silence.

This question made Rioco's face look ugly.

In fact, the reason why he had no confidence was that he was afraid that others would find out about this matter.

And as time goes by, the probability of this matter being known is very high.

Now, as expected...

"I've heard too, Rioco. You actually blocked the Nassau Governor's Palace from doing its business, and you even harbored the fugitive they were looking for. You must be too brave. Do you want to kill us?"

"No way? Then how can we dare to go to Nassau in the future?"

"It's better..."

A pair of eyes looked at Rioco, and the meaning was already obvious, that is, after losing Flint's protection, Rioco himself was a fat sheep. Now he committed suicide and offended the Nassau Governor's Mansion. Everyone

Why don't you take the opportunity to slaughter the sheep?

I just said I couldn’t get involved in this matter. What should I do now...

Rio was breaking out in a cold sweat, and his heart was already sinking, but he remembered what the person who called himself Lightless Fish told him. If he spoke casually today, they would definitely be the winner in the end.

But how to win now?

The entire meeting was made up of Viscount Vida's people.

"Aren't you talking about the position my father left? Why are you talking about something else?" Talina spoke again at this time, stealing the topic, looking very loyal.

Viscount Vida just sneered. He couldn't even protect himself, so he was still robbing here?

"Yes, your father is gone. Is it time to give up this position?"

"It's not up to you, Vader, to decide whether you should pass it on or not. Back then, my father was elected by all the directors, so this time, it's up to everyone to choose whether I should inherit it or not," Talina said.

He looked calm and relaxed.

Viscount Vida just sneered harder and was bluffing. No matter how you choose, half of them will be his people.

Are you still having any sweet dreams?
