MTLNOVEL Chapter 182: Still 2 Faces Pinching_2
"Who knows, maybe they have no thoughts of betrayal, maybe they are completely loyal to the guild?"
"If that's the case, then the guild will still be the guild, and tonight will end well."
"We can't judge the hearts of gentlemen with the malice of petty men, can we?"
You have already dug their graves and even called in the suona band, yet you're saying they might still live, Wei Zhe smiled wryly.
He looked at Yuchi and said, "Third Brother, do you believe it?"
Do I believe it or not, Yuchi chuckled, "I can believe a little bit."
Wei Zhe: "..."
...
Night quickly fell, still at the Wei Family, the Wei Family had finished dinner in a proper manner.
However, Yuchi was not present at dinner tonight; he went directly to the Lamp Flower Tower alone.
Lamp Flower Tower was the largest dining place in Xufu Town, where the guild was initially established.
"Where did Third Uncle go?"
Little Wei Ximo looked east and west, unable to see her Third Uncle anywhere.
At the dinner table, there were only two people.
Wei Xubing and Wei Zhe, Wei Yuan and Wei Qingzhu, these two girls didn't show up in Yuchi Jin'Er's absence.
Xun Xian went out with Yuchi.
It suddenly became a lot quieter.
"Your Third Uncle has something to do." Wei Xubing spoke with a hint of unease in his tone.
He roughly understood from Wei Zhe what Yuchi was about to do.
But whether hearing it for the first time or recalling it now, it was filled with terrifying plans.
It seemed as if this incident came out of nowhere!
Looking back, it was full of decisive actions.
Upon careful consideration, this incident happened too suddenly.
Suddenly, several towns attacked Xufu Town, yet they were lenient towards the Wei Family?
This caused the other families to become unhappy instantly.
Then suddenly, I heard from my third son that the matter could be resolved, with not much of a problem.
This made one's jaw drop.
"Ah, I wonder what Xufu Town will look like after tonight passes."
Wei Xubing thought with worry and some trust.
Little Wei Ximo pouted, looked at the pitch-black sky outside, and said, "I want a hug from Third Uncle."
Wei Zhe quipped, "There are quite a few girls in the world who want a hug from your Third Uncle."
Little Wei Ximo immediately turned her head, her chubby face looking incredulously at her eldest uncle.
"Huh?"
...
At the Lamp Flower Tower, the people from the five families were already present, calmly standing in the hall, chatting leisurely.
To them, this was a war initiated by Yuchi.
No matter what Yuchi was up to, they aimed to take control of the guild.
After all, they were the five major guilds of Xufu Town, controlling over sixty percent of the town's clothing industry.
With some manipulations in the future, they could definitely raise their share to about eighty percent.
"This time we can certainly replace Yuchi."
"Do we even need to say that?"
"I always thought this young man was unreliable."
"He must have stumbled upon an idea and suddenly started such a guild."
"But once that inspiration is gone, he won't know what to do next."
"What's critical is that he's quite annoying."
"The five of our families were attacked by other towns, and he didn't help..."
"He spends every day with his niece Wei Ximo flirting around the town; isn't that infuriating?"
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. After tonight, Xufu Town will go through a reshuffle."
"What about Yuchi then?"
"The Wei Family will eventually become a thing of the past, slowly forgotten, and no one will remember Wei Third Lord in Xufu Town."
The crowd spoke with great satisfaction.
They had already envisioned the scene of dividing Xufu Town's business once Yuchi was ousted.
Such a scene was simply wonderful to imagine.
As for what the truth actually was?
Who cares what the truth is, as long as Yuchi is gone, then that's the truth. History is written by the victors.
Yuchi shrugged at their chatter but felt there was no need for excessive correction.
Thinking about it, even the fair Sima Qian.
When encountering Xiang Yu being overthrown by Liu Bang, he still felt it was unjust for Xiang Yu.
He would even question if heaven was blind.
Called, "To comprehend the relation between heaven and man, to understand the changes from past to present, and to form a theory of his own."
If Sima Qian were to document the events the five families anticipated tonight, he might cheer from the sidelines from an observer's perspective.
The question was, whose side would he stand on?
...
Meanwhile.
Many of the younger generation from the five families had gathered; previously, they couldn't speak during the guild's meals.
In the past, the guild was a very serious place, which made them hesitant to come, fearing they might encounter the conniving Yuchi.
But now it's different, with Yuchi bound to lose, the other patriarchs have allowed them to come watch the scene.
