Finally, it was time to get down to business. The directors sat up straight with no expression on their faces. They put away the calmness they had in front of Li Xianyu because at this moment, he represented the master of Pantheon Palace. The ancient overlord.
"What are your conditions?" Director Yang asked immediately.
"The alliance is limited to killing the ancient demons. After all the ancient demon overlords are eliminated, the contract will automatically become invalid." Li Xianyu paused. "In the meantime, she wants to gain control of Bosch, including but not limited to ordering the branches and employees all over the country."
"Yes, but there must be restrictions. Any order from her must be approved by the heads of the branches. For major decisions, we need to discuss them. As for what is a major decision, it will be decided by the head of the headquarters, Dharmaraja, "Director Yang said.
"No, Baoze's cadres are too bureaucratic. They only obey on the surface but oppose on the inside. If you need their approval, then you should directly reject this request." Li Xianyu shook his head. "Especially after the big boss stepped down and you took over Bosch, the bureaucratic atmosphere has become heavier. Zhang Jiawei, who was chased away by me before, is now the head of the northeast branch. They are suitable for maintaining the status quo, not leading the frontline employees. "
The directors weren't angry, at least not on the surface. Director Yang pondered for a moment. "In this way, Bosch can give her the power equivalent to Dharmaraja. But the last request will not change. Major decisions must be approved by the board. "
Dharmaraja was the highest leader of the executive department and had the power to mobilize all the branches. The power was limited to "at most two branches at the same time." Mobilization of more than three branches often meant that there would be actions involving several provinces. This was a major action. In the past, it needed the big boss's signature, but now it needed to be approved by the board.
It was equivalent to a temporary head of the headquarters. This power was enough.
Li Xianyu nodded. "Okay, it's decided."
He waited for a few seconds. Seeing no objections from the directors, he continued, "The fruit must belong to her. The board can't control or use the fruit in any way."
"What is the fruit?" the oval-faced woman asked.
Li Xianyu shrugged.
"Before knowing the specific effects of the fruit, the board of directors will not make any promises." She shook her head.
As expected, the board of directors would definitely be curious about the fruit, because it was something that Gu Yao would fight to the death to get his hands on. The board of directors must be thinking, will this thing threaten the stability of society? Affect the lives of ordinary people?
The fruit's ability was to turn back time.
Hmm, this was the miraculous effect it showed before it had fully matured. When used properly, this thing was more tempting than anything else.
Humans were greedy. Once something like this that could change the structure of the world was exposed, any ally would betray them and find it hard to trust them.
"Alright, let's put the fruit aside for now. Just like the Ancient Yao, we'll make a final decision after we've eliminated the Ancient Yao." Li Xianyu shrugged.
No one knew that the fruit was with him. As long as he kept this secret, he would be the one to take the initiative when Gu Yao was eliminated.
"Let me digress." At this moment, a board member raised his hand and stared at Li Xianyu. "What plans does the master of Pantheon Palace have for the future? I mean, after the ancient demons are destroyed."
He's testing me.
Li Xianyu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
The main reason why the board of directors chose to form an alliance with Ice Slag was because of his existence as a bridge. Secondly, Ice Slag was a Lone Wolf, and there was more than one enemy Ancient Yao.
Since they wanted to eliminate the Ancient Yao and eliminate the unstable factors, they naturally had to cooperate with the Lone Wolf.
However, the board of directors wouldn't completely trust Ice Slag because she was also an Ancient Yao and was extremely dangerous. Just like how Ice Slag didn't trust the board of directors.
They couldn't be reckless or mischievous. If they answered carelessly and incorrectly, it was very likely that it would affect the final decision of the board of directors.
Li Xianyu was silent for a few seconds. "Before answering this question, I want to ask the board of directors a question."
"Please speak."
"The Unparalleled War Soul has a physique that is not inferior to the Ancient Yao. It's immortal and indestructible. This characteristic comes from the Dragon Ball. Her strength is also not inferior to the Ancient Yao. Strictly speaking, my Great-grandmother is also an unstable factor. Have any of you ever thought of destroying her? "
After a brief silence, one of the board members replied, "To be honest, we have."
"After the establishment of Bosch and the handover with the Buddhist Taoist Association, and the Black Water Spirit Pearl became the property of Bosch, we once considered this question. At that time, Bosch was far from being as powerful as it is now. For the Buddhist Taoist Association and the big families, it was at most a check and balance, but it was difficult to punish them. We couldn't guarantee that you would live safely to the age of 20. "
"We also couldn't guarantee that you would live safely after inheriting the Black Water Spirit Pearl in the future. You also know the warning that the Unparalleled War Soul said before she sealed herself. "
"We thought of destroying the Dragon Ball, or sealing it forever, so that the Li family's bloodline won't inherit her."
"It was he who went against the majority's opinion and returned the Black Water Spirit Pearl to you."
Li Xianyu nodded silently. When he inherited the Black Water Spirit Pearl, he had heard Dharmaraja mention it. It was said that the board of directors had held several meetings for this matter.
In the end, the big boss who was sealed decided to return the Unparalleled War Soul.
"We also have a headache dealing with a senior who always says that she will destroy the Spirit Pearl and destroy the world. But to be honest, this is her weakness, and it is a fatal weakness. "
"As long as the Li family's bloodline is not severed, the Unparalleled War Soul will know her place, and the Li family's heir will be our way to suppress her." The oval-faced woman took over the topic. "But have you thought about how we can suppress the master of Pantheon Temple?"
This was an open and straightforward conversation. They were all smart people.
"From an emotional point of view, I am biased towards her. But please believe that my position will always be the same as yours. "Li Xianyu looked around at everyone." Order is the foundation of everything. Order is above everything. Above good and evil, above emotion. Above profit. The development of human society has always relied on a perfect order. "
"I agree with this philosophy of Bosch because it is also my philosophy."
"The master of Pantheon Temple will be suppressed by me. As long as I am here, she will not do anything that endangers human beings and destroys social stability," Li Xianyu stood up with a solemn expression that had never been seen before. "I can guarantee it with my integrity."
He didn't have many principles, but he had a strong personality.
"As for the future, such as hundreds of years, the span of time is too long. It is meaningless for us to think about it, right? I will be responsible for the master of Pantheon Temple. Please believe me. "
The directors exchanged glances. There was no agreement or objection, but they did not continue to dwell on this topic.
"Are there any other conditions?"
"The last one, and the most important one." Li Xianyu adjusted his emotions and restored his calm expression. "The location of the alliance will not be in Bosch. It will be decided by her. The board of directors must send at least two directors to discuss the alliance with her. "
"This is not realistic." The gray-haired director waved his hand. "You should know that we are not good at fighting. Some of the directors are not even blood descendants."
They were leaders who controlled resources and power, managing the treasure swamp. However, they were all old and not good at fighting. How could they personally go to the frontlines?
"The location of the meeting will be in Bosch." Another middle-aged director also expressed his attitude.
"The trust is mutual. The board does not fully trust her, and she does not fully trust the board. In fact, to put it bluntly, the board losing a few leaders won't have much impact. But if she encounters an accident, everything will be for naught. The risk she takes is something none of you can compare with. "
Well, one should be tough when negotiating.
"Besides, I didn't ask you to be alone. You can bring enough bodyguards with you. There is no limit to the number of people. This shows her sincerity. " Li Xianyu smiled and finally showed the expression of a boss looking down on a weak chicken. "Of course, I will go with you. As I said, my position is the same as yours. No matter which director goes, I will be responsible for him. "
"Unparalleled Fighting Soul and I believe that we are enough to protect your safety."
"We will not compromise on this condition. Otherwise, there is no discussion. These are her exact words."
The directors who were not good at fighting began a new round of discussion. The risk of going to the cooperation was not high because as long as the master of Pantheon Palace did not want to fight to the death with Bosch, he would not touch them.
With the protection of Li Xianyu and Unparalleled Fighting Soul, as well as the many blood descendants, the possibility of being harmed was very small.
However, they had not met the master of Pantheon Palace before and did not know his temper. Wouldn't they become lambs waiting to be slaughtered if they went to his territory?
The ancient demon was a strange and unreasonable creature. If there was a quarrel during the negotiation, he would become agitated and eat them. Would Li Xianyu risk his life for them and the master of the Myriad Deity Palace?
He had just said that the loss of a few members of the board did not affect the overall situation.
Indeed, it did not affect the overall situation because the forces and families they belonged to would send someone else to replace them.
"According to the analysis, when low-level blood descendants face the ancient demon, they will be greatly suppressed and will have an uncontrollable fear. This is obviously not suitable for negotiation. "Director Yang coughed." Director Wang is an ordinary person. I suggest that she represent Bosch in the negotiation. "
"Do you have any shame?" The long-haired woman rolled her eyes at Director Yang.
"I can go," the oval-faced woman said calmly, "Director Yang and I are both the biggest shareholders besides Qin Ze, so we should go together. We should go together to show our sincerity. "
If they could not reach a stalemate, then they would vote.
After a few rounds of voting, two directors were finally decided. One was Director Zhang in his fifties with white sideburns and a big and round nose. The other was Director Xu in his forties. He had a tall nose, regular facial features, and sharp eyes. When he stared at you, you would feel a huge pressure.
At this moment, both of them had a serious expression. They were like poor kids who were pushed out for an adventure by their friends.
You two are definitely the weakest, Li Xianyu thought.
