Chapter 264 Incorrect Name
If the name is not right, the words will not flow.
It is such a simple truth that these foreigners cannot be unaware of it. Yet, they still insist on doing such things to help Mo Cuilin, perhaps just to challenge the inland areas.
But they have already chosen the land they want to stand on. Returning to one's roots is the common hope of everyone!
"Who said there is such an unwritten rule?" Mo Cuilin asked with a smile without changing his expression.
Over the years, the president has been born in one of the four major families. When a younger generation becomes the president, he or she is almost the default future patriarch of that family.
It is true that no one wrote this matter down in black and white, but everyone has a tacit understanding and no one breaks this rule.
"Are you pretending to be confused?" Gongsun Mei's tone was strong and quite aggressive.
She had originally made an appointment with Chen Zhuyi and several other girls, intending to test their thoughts first. Who would have thought that she would hear these words?
"As long as there are regulations, just show them to me. What's the point of threatening me?"
Mo Cuilin is also very good at playing tricks, but he is determined to stick to the rules. He has been working here for so long, and he has remembered the rules firmly in his mind!
"Since there are no regulations, can everyone elect the president?" Chen Zhu asked suddenly after hearing this, standing next to Gongsun Mei.
If someone wants to abandon the rules, then just make a big deal out of it.
When you want to open the window, all you have to do is break down the door and everyone will agree, right?
Mo Cuilin had no idea that Chen Zhuyi had so many crazy ideas, and thought he had the upper hand. He nodded complacently, "Of course..."
"In that case, my wife and I will both participate in the election for president. There's no rule that prohibits us from participating, right?"
Chen Zhuyi interrupted him forcibly and watched his reaction with a smile.
It was Gongsun Mei who was the first to react. Indeed, there was no such thing. The Chamber of Commerce's elections were all conducted among the four major families, and there were basically no mandatory requirements for the candidates.
You said those who join the army are not allowed?
But Mr. Mo had been in the army before, but he retired because of injury.
Among the four major families, if there is any old man who has never touched a gun and won glory for the country, he will be ridiculed and pointed at in the spine!
"Nonsense, who do you think you are to have such absurd ideas?" Mo Cuilin retorted in shock, staring.
"There is no restriction on the identity of the participants. After all, my wife and I are both members of the Mo family. What about you?" Chen Zhuyi hit his sore spot.
Regardless of whether there are regulations allowing the Mo family to participate, Chen Zhuyi perfectly complies with all the rules.
Even Huo Jinzhi, who had already obtained a marriage certificate with her, took advantage of her.
"Then... can we participate too?" Several small chambers of commerce asked hesitantly, eager to try.
Who wouldn't want to seize this opportunity?
If you can become the president, you will be able to soar to the sky. Who can let it go?
"Of course you can. Since there are no regulations, it means that everything is allowed. You should also prepare in advance."
Chen Zhu looked at Mo Cuilin with a smile, and raised his eyebrows at him with some pride.
Mo Cuilin was so angry that he turned away. Aiolit next to him was also a little annoyed. He glared at Chen Zhuyi and left reluctantly.
"Gongsun Mei, please stay. Let's make a record together. No matter who wants to sign up, we will allow them and support them!"
The shop owners here were also very considerate and sent paper and pens. In a short time, this grand gathering of the four major families became a lively event that was enthusiastically followed by nearby merchants.
Anyone who has some ability and thinks he is something important is willing to sign up.
At the end of the day, Gongsun Mei looked at the thick stack of papers in her hands, her eyes filled with surprise. "Are you serious?"
With so many people signing up, the four old men will probably be shocked to death when they see them, right?
"Everyone has already signed up. It's clearly written in black and white. How can I cheat?" Chen Zhuyi just smiled and said it as a matter of course.
Gongsun Mei, holding the paper, felt a rare sense of uneasiness. She was really worried that once this matter got out, it would shake the foundations of the four major families.
After returning home, she went to discuss with her old man immediately.
The next day, the old men from the four major families gathered at the Mo family, determined to get something out of Chen Zhuyi.
"If you ask me, the control we have had for so many years is indeed not appropriate. The opportunities now should be given to the young people." Old Man Gongsun drank his tea and commented seriously, with a serious tone.
Old Master Yao didn't say anything. He just sat there silently, tapping his fingers occasionally, as if he was immersed in his own world.
"Our four major families have finally built the foundation we have today with great difficulty. Are we going to give it all up just because we want to go back?"
Mr. Wu's temper is explosive, like a powder keg that catches fire in an instant.
After a few words, a few people turned their eyes to Mr. Mo. The old man now looked like he was content with having a daughter, but how could he remain silent when it came to the major events of each family?
"Do you think we are going to be trapped here to death?" Mr. Mo finally spoke slowly and expressed his thoughts.
"The president of the Chamber of Commerce is not just an honorary title, it's a noose they put around our necks. Because our minds have changed, they've decided to support newcomers."
Mo Cuilin was just a chess piece that was pushed out.
Once there is any fluctuation, they can cancel this move at any time.
The initiative for cooperation is almost entirely in the hands of foreigners. Is this going to continue?
"Of course I understand what you mean, but..." Mr. Wu's tone became more serious and he sighed secretly.
He hesitated for a long time and couldn't give a real reason.
The next moment, the door suddenly opened.
After revealing her identity and returning to her ancestral home, Chen Zhuyi lived in the Mo family, which was safer. Huo Jinzhi would occasionally come to accompany her. After all, it was inconvenient to do anything in someone else's home.
"Grandpa, is there something wrong that you brought so many old men here?" Chen Zhuyi had already finished washing up and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
How could she have imagined that the decision she made casually would cause heated discussions among several old men?
The moment they saw this face, the old men fell silent, turned their heads away, and tears seemed to be about to come out.
Old Master Mo and Old Master Gongsun were fine. They saw through their former brothers' behavior and patted them on the shoulders: "Business is more important. There are plenty of opportunities to reminisce."
"Yiya, isn't it against the rules to let so many people compete for the position of guild leader?"
