Chapter 33 Changes in the Situation
——Pan Human Alliance-Sorancia City-Crimson Constellation Chamber of Commerce—
Before, Safili had been hiding something from Rheel. Of course, this was not because she didn't want to say it, but Safili herself was not willing to recall this incident. This thing she had been hiding was the key to Safili coming to Solancia City without hesitation.
That is the president of the Crimson Constellation Chamber of Commerce, which is Safili's father, who was determined to suddenly die in his home.
Originally, the fall of the Chamber of Commerce was a big impact on the Chamber of Commerce. What was even more fatal was that at this time, the Chamber of Commerce launched an attack at the same time, which made the situation worse. The most correct way to deal with it at this time was to immediately select a new president with both ability and prestige to take charge of the overall situation, but new differences emerged within the deep red sign.
The starting point of the disagreement is still who should inherit the position of the president. Under the circumstances at that time, there were two suitable candidates, namely Safili's eldest brother, Nelson Ferrom, the eldest son of the former president of the Crimson Constellation Chamber of Commerce, and Seuri Korya, the former vice president of the Crimson Constellation.
The first of these two people is the eldest son of the former president. It is natural for the son to inherit his father's business, but the second one is the former president's confidant, and he cannot find any problem in terms of ability or prestige.
If these two people are willing to cooperate with each other, they can suppress the chaos caused by losing the president as quickly as possible. However, the problem is that these two people have been inconsistent with each other since a long time ago. So in order to fight for the position of the president, the two have had fierce disputes more than once, but the number of supporters of the two is just about the same, so no one can beat each other, and the situation has been so stalemate.
Today Xiuli convened several important members of the chamber of commerce and once again came to Nelson to "discuss" the issue of the president. So, after a few minutes of calmness, the conversation between the two quickly heated up...
"No matter what, the Chamber of Commerce was pulled by my old man. Now that the old man is gone, it is natural that I will inherit the president's position. There is no reason to give the Chamber of Commerce to you an outsider!"
Safili's eldest brother Nelson was a tall and thin red-haired man. He was pressed against a slightly over-white face and declared without hesitation to a hot-headed woman wearing glasses sitting opposite him.
The brunette woman was not showing any weakness. After sneering slightly, she raised her hand and helped the glasses on the bridge of her nose.
"What Mr. Nelson said is really interesting. The Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce has made great contributions to the development of today, but is it not related to the efforts of everyone present? This Chamber of Commerce was supported by everyone's efforts. Of course, the position of the President should be someone with the ability to take responsibility!"
After hearing Xiuli's words, Nelson raised his eyebrows and his face immediately became gloomy. He didn't get angry, but just squeezed out two gloomy sneers from the gap between his teeth with malicious intentions.
"Hehe, what you mean is that I am not capable enough?"
“To be honest…”
Faced with Nelson's rhetoric, Xiuli spread her hands quietly and then responded lightly.
“…The young master’s ability is indeed worrying”
As soon as this sentence was said, the atmosphere became completely cold. As the saying goes, no slap in the face, and no swearing, Xiuli spoke in front of everyone, obviously without giving Nelson face at all, but before Nelson could attack, she reached out to take out an account book.
"This is the account transactions of the young master in the past six months. I think there is no need to let everyone take a look at them one by one, right?"
Seeing the account book in Xiuli's hand, Nelson's pupils instantly closed. It was obvious that he could not have imagined that such a fatal thing would actually come to her. However, after his initial surprise, he coughed slightly and suddenly said something irrelevant.
"When the old man had an accident before, everyone said he had died suddenly after a sudden illness, but the old man has always been in a strong state. How could he die suddenly after a sudden illness? I wonder what Xiuli said?"
It was just such a irrelevant sentence that made Xiuli's mouth twitch unconsciously. She glanced at Nelson deeply, as if she wanted to determine something. After a few minutes, the two of them sat back in their seats at the same time.
"I think it's not a solution for us to continue to quarrel like this. After all, it doesn't count if we both say it..."
As soon as Nelson said this, Xiuli followed closely behind.
"That's right. In the end, other members of the chamber of commerce still need to agree to it before they can count. However, according to the results of the previous few voting, even if you vote again, the result will be the same..."
"So..." Nelson suddenly grinned, "...It's better to wait for a few days. I think my baby sister is about to arrive. With her vote, the result will be clear."
This is the final conclusion that Nelson and Sully came to. Since the supporters of the two are equally matched, they can only wait for the last person with enough voice to decide who will serve as the president. Obviously, the most suitable candidate now is Safili, who has not yet returned to Solancia City.
When they arrived here, the conversation between the two ended up unhappily. After watching Xiuli leave, Nelson curled his lips very unhappily.
"Tsk, I finally waited until the old man returned to the west, but this damn bitch came to compete with me for the position of the president. The position of the president is my thing, and no one can take it away!"
After saying this, a middle-aged bald man with a big belly who had been sitting next to Nelson's side also echoed.
"That's right, Young Master, you are the president's own son. It's natural for the son to inherit his father's business. Where is the turn..."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man looked at him again and whispered after confirming that the people had indeed been exposed.
"...Where is the turn of the traitor who killed the president!"
Upon hearing this, Nelson also turned his eyes and asked coldly.
"That day, did you really see clearly? The person who killed my old man was that damn bitch?"
In response to this, the middle-aged man nodded vigorously.
"Of course I can see it clearly. Unfortunately, this woman has always had a good reputation in the chamber of commerce, so no one is willing to believe it. Even if she tells it, it doesn't make much sense. Instead, others think that we are deliberately framed."
This is the biggest helplessness of the middle-aged man. He clearly has the absolute ace that can defeat the other party, but he has no key evidence and cannot be used as a bargaining chip to threaten the other party. Moreover, Nelson's reputation in the chamber of commerce has always been poor, and he can get half of the supporters is because he is the eldest son of the former president and has nothing to do with his own ability. So even if he tells the truth directly, few people probably believe it. As for those who originally supported Xiuli..., there is no need to rely on them.
"It's okay..." However, Nelson didn't care. "It doesn't matter whether others believe it or not. As long as my good sister... that stupid girl believes it and supports me to become the president, other problems will not be a problem. That girl is also a waste. She has been walking for less than a long time. Forget it, because she still needs her help, she reluctantly waits for two days. The president's position...it will be mine sooner or later!"
———————————————
Xiu Li, who left Nelson's residence, returned to her home with a bad expression. As soon as she entered the study, a thin man who had been following her could not help but speak.
"Vice President... Do you think Nelson has discovered that we killed the president?"
There was also a little panic in my tone. After all, if such a thing is exposed, then let alone the competition for the president, it is a problem whether I can continue to be in the chamber of commerce.
In response, Xiu Li rolled her eyes directly to him.
"So what if that waste is discovered? Just because of his 'good reputation' in the chamber of commerce, will anyone believe it? Yord's useless garbage asked him to kill that stupid girl for me halfway, and he has not done any small things until now!"
She didn't know that Yold had been a cold body, but Xiuli didn't care. Although she originally wanted to kill Safili to save any trouble, it seems that the plan should be changed now.
"Thanks to my good relationship with that stupid girl over the years, Nelson thought this girl was his trump card in turning defeat into victory? Haha, I want him to know what it means to be self-defeating!"
After saying this, Xiuli also took a deep breath to calm her mood. Unlike Nelson, who has a very poor reputation in the chamber of commerce, Xiuli has always established a very good image as the vice president. As long as she has worked hard to establish her image over the past few years, it is not difficult for her to win the support of Safili.
"I'll make arrangements to withdraw everyone. There is no need to block people. Everything will be said when the girl Safili comes back..."
Interlaced wills twist into spirals of desire, conflicting beliefs collide with sparks of destruction...
...At this moment, Safili didn't know that in the city where she was born, a silent storm was brewing and heating up rapidly. The familiar relatives and trusted elders, when these girls who should have stood up to protect her in times of crisis, turned into perpetrators of everything, had always been protected by others, made a decision that shocked everyone!
