Chapter 1,374: Bastard!
Chapter 1374 Bastard!
After hearing the question from the Great Elder, the Second Elder shook his head like a rattle and replied sternly:
"Boss! We are not hiding anything from you! After you got sick these years, we have been following your request and focusing all our energy on cutting-edge technology. We don't care about any fights in the underground world.
By the way, the Sky Eye Mercenary Organization we founded has increased its profits several times over these years! In addition to providing intelligence to major underground forces, we basically don't participate in any fights.
In addition, the various industries under our umbrella have also taken advantage of the general trend of economic development, and the profits of all industries have maintained a large growth rate every year. Our Tongqi Association is still the richest organization in the world!
We are managing the Tongqi Association carefully in accordance with your original ideas."
After hearing this, the Great Elder did not comment, but suddenly asked a question that was completely unrelated.
"Well, I believe in your management ability. Tongqi will definitely get better and better in your hands.
Just... I want to ask, since the last time you came to report on the progress of the Ultimate Secret, you haven't come to see me again in the past year? I want to ask, to what extent has the Ultimate Secret progressed?"
As soon as these words came out, all the elders were sweating profusely, and no one dared to answer this question.
Even the second elder, who had been suppressing his shock and reporting to the elder, shut his mouth tightly at this time.
These old guys did report the progress of the Ultimate Secret a year ago.
But after their report, several people met secretly and held a very secret meeting of seven people.
These seven elders were originally quite afraid of the elder, but after meeting him a year ago, they thought that this mainstay of Tongqi had completely aged!
At that time, the elder was lying weakly on the hospital bed, his whole body was weak, his eyes were even more dim, and he looked like an ordinary old man who was about to die.
The seven people decided in that secret meeting... to abandon the Great Elder!
The ultimate secret, which involves a wide range of people, is the biggest secret that everyone wants to get. But once the Tongqi Society obtains this secret, it will be presented to the Great Elder as soon as possible.
This is of course a phenomenon that no one wants to see, especially after they have confirmed that the Great Elder is already at the end of his strength and can no longer call the wind and rain.
So, from then on, all the actions of these seven people will no longer be reported to the Great Elder. As for why, they all know it!
However, today, the Great Elder suddenly left the bed and organized this internal meeting, which made all the elders' hearts hang in their throats.
Once the Great Elder investigates, these people will be severely punished according to the rules of the Tongqi Society!
The Great Elder glanced at the silent people, and then smiled calmly:
"You know the reason why you don't want to report, and I know it too. However, for the sake of being brothers for so many years, I will not pursue this matter."
At this time, the Great Elder's eyes sank, and the smile on his face disappeared!
"But! Look at what you have done these years? Since I was lying on the hospital bed, you have started to fight for power, started to cheat each other, and started endless infighting!
We, Tongqihui, can stand at the top of the underground world, not relying on these things, but unity!
Even if Tongqihui's industry can be rich enough to rival a country, so what? If you are not united and become a pile of loose sand, how can we meet the real challenge?
Everyone has selfishness, and I understand this very well. But there must be a limit!
I see that you have lived very well these years, and even this limit has been completely forgotten!"
The resounding voice of the elder has been echoing in this slightly empty conference room. After being scolded, several elders could only bury their heads and dared not look at the elder directly.
Looking at these former brothers, who have now become like this, the elder also sighed softly and shook his head lightly.
The conference room was silent again.
The elder waited for a long time, and seeing that no one dared to speak, he shouted directly:
"Do you know... what you did wrong? I am a person who should have enjoyed my old age, but I am here. Don't you realize the seriousness of the matter?"
This time, someone finally dared to speak.
After hesitating for a long time, the third elder suddenly raised his head. Looking at the angry elder, his face turned red, and he said with some embarrassment: "Boss! After meeting you a year ago, the seven of us did have selfish thoughts! I admit this! But, what mistakes do you want to say? I don't agree! Tongqihui has been thriving over the years. Not only does no one in the entire underground world dare to provoke us, but even the major countries treat us politely.
As for the ultimate secret, since you are fine, boss... we will naturally follow behind you, follow your lead, and put you first in everything! I promise that I will never have those selfish thoughts again!"
The third elder thought that his words were reasonable and should be able to ease the boss's anger.
However, what everyone didn't expect was... a particularly crisp slap suddenly sounded in the conference room!
Snap!
The first elder was still sitting in the first seat, but the third elder had already flown backwards and hit the wall of the conference room heavily, and then collapsed on the ground.
A trace of bright red blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and he looked at the elder with horror...
"Asshole! You are about to die, but you still dare to speak so arrogantly! No one dares to provoke you? Then why can the people of the dark world turn this place upside down?
The major powers treat you with courtesy? Why haven't you made any progress in China for so long?
Selfishness? You still have the courage to talk to me about selfishness? I think you are going backwards as you live. Even when danger has come to you, you are still stubborn!
To tell you the truth, I will never get out of bed and move a step if I can lie in bed!
The reason why I appeared in This is because of the Bagua disk and the archaeologist! You all know that this person and this thing can guide anyone to China to find the ultimate secret! But what you don't know is... this time, the leader of the dark world has personally dispatched!
If I hadn't been in front of her and sent people to take back the Bagua disk, you would still be living in a dream!
In addition, do you really think... among the opponents competing for the ultimate secret, there is only one dark world?
You are all old guys who have lived for so long, you should have heard of... the blood clan in Western Europe, the Ya clan in South America, and... the four ancient clans in China? "
