Power and Empire Chapter 3413: The dispute between the old and the new
Sunlight shining through the carved marble windows into the conference hall in front of you, and twelve business alliance deacons whispered on the certification documents of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce.
Every year when assessing the S-level Chamber of Commerce, all kinds of strange things have been seen. In order to pass the assessment, all kinds of exaggerated things have not been encountered, but such as this exaggerated and no-friend identification document, Or let the deacon of the business alliance who are surrounded by a long brown table look weird and have a feeling of laughter
"It's just a nonsense! Knowing the impossible, it is still displayed so grandly, even if the woman recommends it personally, should we bow our heads, that woman is no longer a member of my business alliance. I want to continue to make trouble here!"
A middle-aged deacon finally couldn't help standing up, pressing the identification document in his hand on the long round table in the middle, and said with a deep blue face
He is Spear, the president of the Dark Gold Chamber of Commerce among the twelve deacons. He is 40 years old this year. It is the time when his energy and enterprising spirit are at his peak. The Dark Gold Chamber of Commerce is the imperial jewelry luxury giant. President Peel became the twelfth deacon and was elected after Socutus Dealand left. He has not experienced Socutus Dealand’s thirteenth deacon era, so the pressure on this business queen is the least. Yes, and this time the S-level chamber of commerce assessed, he even expressed his support for another chamber of commerce earlier, and now suddenly knowing that one of the two places has been preset in advance, he suddenly went crazy
"Deacon Spear, please pay attention to your words. Regarding the assessment of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce, I have determined it completely in accordance with the fair procedure." Lang Ruiduo, who sat opposite, immediately stood up and protested with a serious expression.
"When we were blind, how could we not know if there was a super chamber of commerce of this size in the empire, and look at the date of registration of this chamber of commerce, it was ten days ago, and one was only registered ten days ago. The small chamber of commerce, in a blink of an eye, was on the list of the evaluation meeting of the S-level chamber of commerce. How much money did Lang Ruiduo charge the other party?” Spear said firmly, and firmly determined that this was the woman who temporarily fabricated it for the purpose of evaluation. !
"If a large chamber of commerce with 50,000 employees, 1,100 port industries, and eight merchant fleets are excluded from the S-class chamber of commerce, then which chamber of commerce can still be called an S-class chamber of commerce "" Lang Ruiduo calmly picked up the assessment file on the table, and flipped through it to find out a few pages and spread it out in front of everyone
"It's just a few paper documents, what can it explain! If it says that they have 100,000 people, is it really 100,000 people?"
Speer’s mouth turned upturned with a sneer, and his tone was full of contempt. "I have always believed that the times are changing and the business alliance is also expanding rapidly. We cannot always follow the old style of the past, just use this sunrise Take the Chamber of Commerce as an example. If you put the contents of the Chamber of Commerce outside, you can see how many people agree that the Chamber of Commerce will be classified as an S-level Chamber of Commerce."
"Leave it outside?" Some other deacons couldn't help but frown.
"What a joke, the more people there are, the more difficult it is to make a decision. Doesn't Deacon Spielberg also know?" A prestigious veteran deacon even glared at Spear, this The guy is obviously ill-intentioned. It's no secret that this guy wants to break the deacon meeting of the current business alliance. Is this going to be a knife?
"Hehe, that's what I said. Actually, even if we want to cover it, can we cover it?"
"The list is always announced, and the major chambers of commerce in the empire are looking forward to it outside now"
Speier smiled calmly under the gaze of the other person, came to the window, and opened the dark green curtains that shielded the meeting room. He glanced in the direction of the announcement board, and said, "I I just want to remind you, have you thought about what kind of volatility will be once the list is announced!
"It's useless to say more, follow the prescribed procedures and start the deacon committee voting. If four deacons pass, then it is approved"
Lang Ruiduo glanced out the window with some impatient eyes. This announcement is indeed a bit painful, but Lang Ruiduo is not afraid, as long as he can complete Socutus Delan’s mission this time. I can get the support of the Imperial Bank, so what if it is boiling outside!
The other deacons are not fools, and they will not see that Spear clearly wants to catch this and do something!
As the head of the new empire businessman, one of the reasons why Spear was strongly elected to the board of directors by many businessmen was because he advocated that the board of directors should be expanded. There were hundreds of thousands of businessmen in the empire, and hundreds of thousands of chambers of commerce, but only The twelve deacons are really too few. He proposed that the number of deacons should be expanded to 120 to form a real joint meeting of deacons, so as to be able to discuss the affairs of the business alliance, brainstorm ideas, and better represent the interests of business people. , Instead of just a joint meeting composed of 12 people as it is right now, entrusting the future of hundreds of thousands of people on the shoulders of 12 people
In fact, this kind of dispute between the old and the new imperial merchants has exploded more and more in the past two years.
The veteran Chamber of Commerce has spent so much effort and effort to climb to its current position. Many of them have been in business since the Icadiva era. Which one is not relying on daring to fight, How many times have encountered life and death on the open trade road, and how many times have been on the brink of desperation, only to have the business alliance expand to the entire continent, and thus enjoy the current preferential privileges. From the initial trial, the imperial trade road ventured into the inner sea and went deep into southern Europe. The dense forest of Barrow, like opening up wasteland, has groped and expanded across the entire continent. Now even the southernmost wide-angle sea of Southern Obaro has the footprints of imperial merchants, and the imperial trade route has completed the development of the entire Obaro region. Extension
On this basis, a large number of new chambers of commerce began to rise, and began to impact and shake the status and market of the old chambers of commerce that first opened up trade routes. These new merchants were often large aristocrats in the empire's conquest of the region, with considerable Some of them have only been in business for two or three years, relying on the golden business roads that the old chambers of commerce have fought, before they climbed the ladder of large chambers of commerce. Now they jump out and want to be on par with the old chambers of commerce. How could it be possible!
For established chambers of commerce, this feeling is like in a large company, an old employee who has worked for 30 years and a new employee who has worked for three months get the same salary and enjoy the same benefits. live! But for the new chambers of commerce, they have greater connections and funds, but they have always been suppressed by the old chambers of commerce. The twelve deacon councils will not change. They are always at a disadvantage in the competition of the old chambers of commerce, so they are required to reform the framework of the deacons. The voice is not once or twice
It’s just that no one thought that this old dispute would suddenly focus on a sunrise chamber of commerce
In the entire hall, most of the powerful old deacons have a posture of observing their noses and hearts, although knowing that the identification document of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce in their hands is extremely absurd, this guy Lang Ruiduo is afraid. When the black heart arrived home, he dared to bring this kind of identification material to the table, but still no one expressed doubts
Because they know very well that the water is too muddy, not to mention that Spear has already assumed a posture to investigate to the end. It is this sunrise that the Chamber of Commerce is protected by Socutus Delan, which is enough to show that the depth of the water can be Drown people!
It is true that Socutus Delan has left the business alliance, but it is hard to say how many people in the deacon are the business queen, let alone the headquarters of this big business alliance , How many pairs of the business queen’s eyes, every move, every word and deed here, these veteran deacons are very affirmative, and the attitude and opinions in this meeting will definitely be put on Socutus Delan’s in the afternoon. The desk, because of the evaluation of an S-level chamber of commerce, to offend Socutus Delan, who is in charge of the Empire Bank, a fool will do that. Those who have experienced Socutus Delan’s era know that
What does this gorgeous business queen represent? That is an era. This woman herself represents an era!
That was the era of imperial commerce, the era when the imperial merchants were determined to forge ahead, and it was the era when talented and strategic careerists were mixed, and they wanted to make an attempt at the power of the business alliance! That was the era of frenzied expansion of the business alliance, the era when the Deacon’s Council could make a voice together, and the era when the imperial military would not be able to take care of it if there was no signature of the thirteenth deacon on the document
The authority of the Deacon Board of the Business Alliance is more than half established by the thirteenth deacon!
It’s not that no one has ever challenged it. The result is nothing but a terrible death
That woman didn't tidy up like a chicken that time, and that time was not a headshot and a match for her opponent? never had! In the age of the thirteenth deacon, where the power disparity was too great, one word was enough to deny and affirm any decision of the entire deacon committee. Who would dare to jump out and say no words there?
If the thirteen deacons are still there, what's the dispute between the old and the new?
Only a rookie like Spielber of the Dark Gold Chamber of Commerce, who has only entered the Deacon Council in the past two years, knows very little about the **** wind at the beginning, and really thinks that he is a deacon of the business alliance as a personal thing! I'm still talking about reforming the current twelve deacons system, but I don't know that the existence of the twelve deacons was just to facilitate the control of the thirteenth deacon.
"Then, let’s vote now." Lang Ruiduo looked calmly and looked at all the deacons, everyone is smart.
"Wait a minute, Lan Rui, you have forgotten a document in the office. Go and fetch it for me. You may need to use it later." Spear narrowed his eyes into a thin line, and his cold face was silent for a moment. A confidant sitting in the back row said, the assistant nodded, stood up, and walked outside the hall door,
Speier sent away his assistants for an excuse, undoubtedly, in order to spread the sunrise chamber of commerce to the major chambers of commerce outside, in order to create pressure on the other deacons, watching the assistant disappear at the entrance of the hall. Only then did Spear turn his head, and said with a smile, "Now we can start!"
The eyes of the other deacons flickered slightly, neither stopping nor saying anything. Although this is a meeting of twelve deacons, business meetings have always been like this. Every deacon has several assistants to attend. After all, business As the head of the chamber of commerce, it’s impossible to do everything by yourself, and it’s impossible for some business progress to be detailed. With these assistants, you can always understand the relevant content and adjust the results of the meeting at any time.
"Lang Ruiduo, the twelve deacons of mine, expresses his approval." Lang Ruiduo raised his hand with a calm expression,
In the conference hall, there is silence
"Haha, everyone can still see the situation clearly"
Speer smiled contemptuously, his eyes are full of provocation, more and more shining,
"pop" The door of the conference hall was also pushed open at this time. The assistant who had hurried away just now walked back to the seat behind Spear with a document, nodded slightly to Spear, and said The news has spread
"So that's it!" Spear looked at Lang Ruiduo's lone hand raised with a smile on his face. He didn't expect the opportunity to come so suddenly, this Lang Ruiduo wanted to flatter Sokutosday. Lan, if he can firmly grasp the loophole of the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce, when all the people’s faces are announced, it will reveal the black-box operation of the Deacon’s Association. Under the agitation of the public, the reform of the Deacon’s Association will surely be a matter of course. , In one fell swoop to overthrow these old and bloated old chambers of commerce
"Can you continue? Interrupting others in the middle is quite lacking in education. My Twelve Deacons, Phitek, agrees." At this time, a voice said, Spear's smile solidified on his face, this old thing! It’s the old deacon who refuted him just now
"The warmth of my twelve deacons expressed their approval"
"My Twelve Deacons, the Sith Act, expressed their approval"
One by one voices, either thick, loud, or hoarse, echoed in the hall, and one hand began to stand up, two, three, and four. . . . Six, eight. . . Spear’s face was green, and every voice seemed to hit him in the face. Of the twelve hands, only four of them were not raised. Except for Spear himself, the other three people were all new-style merchants. Representative, but these three people also have solemn faces. The war broke out~IndoMTL.com~ Unprepared, the old and new camps are so vivid, the atmosphere in the hall is even more filled with a smell of gunpowder
"Eight people expressed their approval and they fully met the accreditation standards, and the Sunrise Chamber of Commerce S-Class Chamber of Commerce has passed the qualification accreditation." Lang Ruiduo picked up the seal of the business alliance and stamped the accreditation documents on the table again.
"You will regret it, I can guarantee it!" Spear looked at the seal on the document, fingers clenched, teeth clenched, these guys were so happy too soon, once this announcement is published, it will be the deacon The death of the meeting!
At three o’clock in the afternoon, the hot May sun hung in the sky, and the tall eaves of the business alliance headquarters dragged a long shadow in the sun. A middle-level business alliance member walked to the front of the crowded bulletin board and placed a copy of The bulletin was hung up, the list of S-level chambers of commerce came out, and the merchants around immediately swarmed up
"Let me see, let me see"
"Don't squeeze! Who stepped on my foot!"
"Sunrise Chamber of Commerce, what kind of sunrise chamber of commerce is there!" someone shouted loudly, and there was a loud noise all around.
