( .) The Presbyterian Council was convened at the appointed time. ( . Piaotian Literature registered member recommended this work wo.)
For those who do not know the truth, this Presbyterian meeting is nothing more than a formality.
However, what no one could have imagined is that a good show is about to happen quietly...
Tan Fangcheng also did not expect that someone would shake what he regarded as a "hereditary" position. Therefore, when he walked into the Presbyterian Church, his face was still full of joy, and he was not aware of the changes quietly taking place in the Presbyterian Church.
The great elder Huo Keshou, as a close friend of the Tan family, also did not notice any changes. When he saw that everyone had arrived, he cleared his throat: "It is unfortunate that Duke Tan Liang passed away, which is very sad. Ran Bada
Via Casino Kapitan cannot be left alone. According to the custom, it is natural for a son to inherit his father's business. Today, Tan Fangcheng is thirty-three, so he should inherit it. I invite you all here to see if there are any objections. If not, then I will
It’s time to announce…”
In his opinion, this was a matter of course, but just when he was about to make an announcement, a voice suddenly sounded: "Great Elder, I have an opinion."
They all looked there and saw that the person speaking was actually Zhu Kuangzhen.
Huo Keshou frowned slightly: "It's Elder Zhu. Does Elder Zhu object to it?"
"Yes, I object." As soon as Zhu Kuangzhen opened his mouth, Tan Fangcheng felt something was wrong. Zhu Kuangzhen was seen sitting there with a half-smile on his face: "When Tan Gongguo Liang was alive, he governed well, which is not bad at all.
.But his son Tan Fangcheng, although he is thirty-three years old, as far as I know, is nothing more than an idle playboy. How can such a person take on the position of Kapitan? How can he convince people?"
He was aggressive as soon as he opened his mouth and showed no mercy to Tan Fangcheng, which made both Tan Fangcheng and Huo Keshou look pale.
Huo Keshou showed displeasure on his face: "Elder Zhu, it's over, it's over. Although Tan Fangcheng has occasionally made small mistakes, it's definitely not what you said. He should always think about Tan Gongguoliang's kindness...
.”
"It is precisely because of Tan Gong's sake that we don't want the position of Kapitan to be tarnished." Zhu Kuangzhen refused to give in at all: "According to the rules of the Presbyterian Church, if two people object, the Presbyterian Council
A vote is about to take place, does the Great Elder want to break this rule?"
Huo Keshou glared at him fiercely, but since he mentioned the rules, Huo Keshou was helpless: "Who else has the same idea as Elder Zhu?"
"I!"
When this voice sounded, everyone looked around and could hardly believe that it was actually Lin Jin, who had always had a good relationship with the Tan family!
"Elder Lin, you..." Tan Fangcheng was so angry that he could not speak.
Lin Jian said calmly: "I know Tan Fangcheng best. His character is exactly the same as what Elder Zhu said. This Jiabidan position is definitely not suitable for him..."
Huo Keshou vaguely felt something was wrong, and he suppressed his anger: "Since both of you are opposed, a vote will be held. But I want to ask the two elders, Tan Fangcheng is not qualified. Who else can hold this position?
?”
"I!"
The word "I" was heard again, and Bu Zhongming walked in slowly, bowed to the nine elders first, and then said calmly: "Although I don't have any ambitions, when Mr. Tan was here.
Following Tan Gong’s teachings, I know how important Kapitan is. Now that Tan Gong has passed away, Bu Zhongming is willing to carry on Tan Gong’s legacy regardless of his own abilities..."
"Humph, you also know that you are overestimating your abilities..." Tan Fangcheng snorted coldly.
Bu Zhongming was not angry: "Yes, Bu Zhongming is indeed a despicable person. But he is qualified for this position and has the ability to handle everything in an all-round way. If you elders choose me, I will never let you down."
At this point, even Huo Keshou had no choice. He cleared his throat: "Does Mr. Bu have a guarantor?"
Bu Zhongming smiled slightly, came to Lin Qiang, and saluted: "I also ask Elder Lin to be my guarantor."
Lin Liang looked very ugly. He hesitated for a while and finally nodded...
Huo Keshou couldn't understand this. Lin Qiang had always looked down on Bu Zhongming, but today he was willing to be his guarantor? Now suddenly there were two competitors, Bu Zhongming and Tan Fangcheng. According to the rules, he couldn't favor either one.
.
He looked at Bu Zhongming and said, "Everyone, there are two candidates now. You can vote."
The result of the vote was even more unexpected. Six of the nine elders actually voted for Bu Zhongming. In this election, Tan Fangcheng was completely defeated.
Tan Fangcheng was stunned and could not believe that such a situation would occur.
Huo Keshou didn't even know what happened, what happened before. The Presbyterian Church, which had always been united, actually began to have cracks...
Bu Zhongming was overjoyed and bowed to each other, promising again and again that he would never let the elders down.
Bu Zhongming successfully took the position of Kapitan in the Batavia gambling house, and the manipulator behind all this was just one person:
Han Heyu!
This man who mysteriously appeared in Batavia and quickly started to turn things around, fulfilled his promise brilliantly. As a reward for him, Bu Zhongming issued the first gambling house license to Han Heyu after taking office.
On the opening day of Hanji Casino, not only Bu Zhongming and Zhu Kuangzhen came, but also Huo Keshou and Tan Fangcheng. They wanted to see with their own eyes who Bu Zhongming’s first gambling house license was issued to.
See if there is anything fishy in it, and see if there is anything they can use to catch it.
The casino was bustling with activity. Seeing Huo Keshou and Tan Fangcheng arriving, Han Heyu greeted them with a smile on his face: "Great Elder, Mr. Tan, you are here on the 2nd, please come inside, please come inside."
Huo Keshou was concerned about his identity, but he was polite. Tan Fangcheng was not so unreasonable. He looked at the gambling house carefully and snorted: "You are a foreigner, how dare you open a gambling house here?"
Han Heyu smiled slightly and said: "Master Tan, for you and me, we are both foreigners, right?"
Tan Fangcheng's face darkened, but Han Heyu said calmly: "I opened a gambling house here just to make ends meet. I didn't have time to visit Mr. Tan, so I asked Mr. Tan not to remember the faults of others."
Tan Fangcheng didn't say much to him. He stood at a gambling table and looked at it for a while, then suddenly said: "There is something wrong with these dice!"
One sentence made all the gamblers stop.
Han Heyu, however, showed no signs of panic: "Master Tan, you are really good at joking. Although my gambling house is newly opened, it is extremely fair. How could you possibly be playing tricks on the dice?"
"I said there must be a problem..." Tan Fangcheng said without mercy: "You can tell if there is mercury in it after you take it back and check it... Great Elder, if it is true
How should I dispose of mercury?"
Hawkshou said with a straight face: "Of course we will close the door and drive people away. From now on, we will not be allowed to enter Batavia again..."
Han Heyu smiled: "Yes. If we really did something, of course we will be punished. Let alone driving them away, even if our hands and feet are cut off, we have nothing to say. It's just that Mr. Tan wants to test the authenticity of the dice."
, you can check it here. Look, Mr. Bu, Elder Zhu are here, you can tell by looking at them face to face, but if you take it back to check, no one knows what problems may arise here..."
Tan Fangcheng glared: "Do you still think that I can do anything? I want to check it here? That's fine. Please ask all the guests out first."
"I'm afraid that's not appropriate." Han Heyu still smiled: "I've just opened a new store, how can I drive away customers? In front of so many customers, Mr. Tan can just check it out."
"Presumptuous!" Huo Keshou had already made his attitude clear and took Tan Fangcheng's side: "If we really find out that there is something wrong with the dice, wouldn't it mean that we have lost our face? This pair of Master Bu's faces will be disgraced, right?
?The first license plate after Mr. Bu took office was issued from your hand."
Bu Zhongming hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. There is something wrong with the dice after checking it here. I was the first to smash this gambling house. Grand Elder, Mr. Tan, it is better to check it here."
He also had good intentions. He could only understand what kind of person Han Heyu was now. Once Huo Keshou and Tan Fangcheng offended him deeply, they were afraid that a disaster would happen in an instant.
It doesn't matter if others are killed. If something goes wrong between the chief elder of the Presbyterian Church and the young master of the Tan family, I'm afraid Batavia will be in chaos.
Who would have thought that Tan Fangcheng didn't show any dignity at all, and kept clamoring about taking the dice back for inspection, which was obviously a deliberate attempt to frame Han Heyu.
At this time, a young man who had been standing behind Han Heyu suddenly stood up and said calmly: "Why is it so troublesome to argue?"
As he spoke, he suddenly slapped a few dice on the gambling table, and then slowly raised his hand. The dice had been smashed by him... The power of this palm immediately made everyone...
Was shocked.
The young man clapped his hands: "First Elder, Mr. Tan, you have seen clearly, is there any problem with the dice in our gambling house?"
Tan Fangcheng became a little scared now. This was not his territory after all, and the opponent's palm was so sharp. If it hit him, the consequences would be disastrous...
She glanced at him unwillingly: "What's your name?"
"Back to Mr. Tan, I don't have a name. Everyone calls me Xiao Shi."
"Forget it, Fang Cheng, let's go." Huo Keshou said in a low voice, knowing that there was no way he could get anything done today.
Seeing the two people leaving angrily, Han Heyu smiled and asked the guests to continue playing, and then called Xiao Shi to his side: "How to chop?"
"Master, it's really troublesome to keep them..." Xiao Shi whispered.
Han Heyu nodded: "Go and do it, be more agile with your hands and feet..."
Xiaoshi left in a hurry. Han Heyu turned around and found Bu Zhongming looking at him fearfully. He said calmly: "Master Bu, you are different from them. You are my friend."
"Yes, yes, I am your friend..." I don't know why, but when he said this, Bu Zhongming's voice trembled...
...
It's late at night...
A few short and urgent calls came from the Tan family, and then everything fell into silence again...
Tan Fangcheng looked fearfully at the young man in front of him who was covered in blood and holding a knife in his hand. He was so frightened that he kowtowed and wailed for his life.
He recognized this young man as the pebble that shattered the dice with one palm in the gambling den.
It was so terrible, so terrible that as soon as he sneaked into his home, he killed all his family members.
"Master Shi, have mercy on me, have mercy on me, Master Shi!"
Xiao Shi cracked a smile and said: "Master Tan, I am not Master Shi, my name is Xiao Shi. The adults in our family have said that it would be troublesome to keep you here, so I specially came to invite Master Tan to go on his way."
Tan Fangcheng almost collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud...
...
Overnight, Huo Keshou, the great elder of the Presbyterian Church, and Tan Fangcheng, the son of the Tan family, died... This news quickly caused a sensation in Batavia.
Antony van Diemen, the Dutch governor in Batavia, was also shocked by this, and immediately ordered his men to invest in the investigation. However, they searched again and again, but found nothing.
Only Bu Zhongming knew what happened.
The thing they feared the most has finally arrived...Although they killed Huo Keshou and Tan Fangcheng this time, what about the future? Will they suffer the same fate in the future?
Bu Zhongming doesn't know...
Also frightened was Bu Shengcai: "Father, they really attacked Huo Keshou and Tan Fangcheng. What should we do? Do we want to attack them?"
"You are confused!" Bu Zhongming glared at his son fiercely: "They can kill Huo Keshou and Tan Fangcheng, but can't they kill us? Are we going to show up? Then we will turn into corpses in a few days!"
As he spoke, he sighed heavily: "We are like getting on a ship, and now we can only stay with them. Our lives are already in their hands, they can make me Kapitan
, can also kill us. Don’t forget, the people standing behind them are those in Taiwan."
Bu Zhongming was very smart at this point. He knew that he was not facing Han Heyu, but a very large organization.
No matter what happens in the future, he can only be with Han Heyu now. This is just as Han Heyu said himself
"Actually, to be honest, since we have a way to make friends, we are not afraid of the other party betraying us. We can get you into Kapitan's position, and we can also get you down. Of course, this will require interest.
....."
Moreover, this benefit will be very heavy, and it is simply beyond the reach of the Bu family.
On a boat, this is the Bu family's only option, and there is no retreat. (You are welcome to come and your support is my biggest motivation.)
