Chapter 337 Voting
Li Changgui saw that the tribesmen's attention shifted from who should inherit the position of the ancestor to money, and he felt uneasy. Speaking of money, he still understood Zhang Nianzu's financial situation - he could basically no longer take care of himself, otherwise he would not have placed the tribesmen in the stadium. On the other hand, Jack and Du Heng were both people who could easily buy a villa. Li Changgui was not well educated, so he could not say that the economic base determines the superstructure, but he understood this principle. He did not know how many of the more than 30 tribesmen who came this time were simply summoned by the ancestor, but there were definitely many people like Wei Biao and the three brothers of the Liu family who came just for money. He jumped in front of Du Heng, pointed at him and said loudly: "This man was the accountant and cashier of the Qiangren tribe many years ago. He was in charge of all the money. He was responsible for paying the tribesmen a fixed amount of money every month. 20 years ago, he suddenly fled to the United States with a huge sum of money, so the money he gave to everyone was interrupted."
Everyone was in an uproar, asking, "Is that so?"
Du Heng sat on the ruins, sneered slightly, and agreed to everything.
Liu Bei shouted, "What are you waiting for? Catch this guy and force him to spit out the money!"
Du Heng said flatly: "I will be 45 years old in a few days. Will I be afraid of you?"
Liu Bei lost his temper immediately. Everyone present knew what 45 years old meant to a soldier. Threatening someone who would die in a few days was useless.
Jack waved his hand and said, "Everyone, although the money was embezzled by this person, do you think that the fault lies entirely with him? If you were the ancestor who held the interests of the entire clan in your hands, would you give all the money to one person to manage?"
Lei Tingting said: "Du Heng is from your Qiangren tribe. Is it wrong for Grandpa to trust him? You don't hold the culprit accountable, but instead hold on to this issue. Is there such a reason in the world?"
Jack said, "Zhang Nianzu, what do you think?"
Zhang Nianzu said, "I recently read a few family trees from Li Erhu, which recorded some activities of the Qiangren tribe in ancient times. At that time, life was scarce, and the grandfather also sent a single person to manage food, and all the food. They never worried that this tribe member would run away with a lot of food, nor did they worry that he would eat more than he wanted. My father also managed the public funds of the tribe according to this concept, and as a result, something went wrong. The food would be eaten up sooner or later, but an astronomical amount of money can bring you an aura wherever you go and satisfy people's various extravagant desires. From this point of view, he is out of date and has made a serious mistake."
Jack said: "You admitted it!"
Liu Bei said: "We don't want to know whose fault it is now, we just want to know how to get our money back!"
Jack gave Du Heng a look in an instant, the meaning was very clear: You help me get to the top, and I will help you survive.
Du Heng neither nodded nor expressed any objection.
Jack tentatively said, "Du Heng also regretted it. After arriving in the United States, he expressed his willingness to return the money to his people, but he will return it to everyone through me."
Liu Bei said: "So if everyone recognizes you as the grandfather, the money will be returned ?"
Jack said: "This..."
Liu Bei said impatiently: "Don't beat around the bush, just tell me whether it is true or not."
Jack said, "Yes!"
The crowd was in an uproar again.
Liu Bei asked his two younger brothers, "What do you think?"
At this time, Liu Laoliu suddenly said, "Let me sort it out - the money originally belonged to the Qiangren tribe, and was later stolen by Du Heng. Now Du Heng has been caught, but if the Qiangren tribe wants to get the money back, they must recognize a new ancestor." He concluded, "Someone is using your own things to bribe you."
Li Changgui said: "It is more appropriate to say it is a threat."
Jack said, "When did it become the Ant Tribe's turn to interfere in our Strongman Tribe's affairs?"
Lao Guo said: "He is an ant, but his principle is also true. If a psychopath like me understands this principle, then everyone should understand it, right?"
Liu Erbei said to Liu Bei: "Brother, logically speaking, we are not familiar with Zhang Nianzu and Jack. If there is no problem with bloodline, it doesn't matter who is the ancestor. But the way this guy named Jack does things is very unpleasant. The madman is right, the money originally belonged to us!"
Liu Laoliu: “Eh?”
Liu Xiaobei pointed at Jack and said, "Return the money quickly, or I'll kill you!"
Everyone was laughing. Although these three brothers were triplets, they really lived up to the saying: the oldest is stupid, the second is treacherous, and the third is stupid.
Li Changgui took Ah San and Ah Si to stand beside Zhang Nianzu and said quietly, "Not everyone can be the Grandmaster."
Wei Biao pointed at Jack and Zhang Nianzu and said, "The difference is that if you follow this one, you will have money, and if you follow this one, you will have no money."
Liu Xinliang said anxiously: "Old man, stop embarrassing yourself!"
"Let me finish what I'm saying." Wei Biao said to the crowd, "Before you guys came, Jack tried to bribe our Liu Xinliang but failed, and turned around to kill him. There's nothing to say about that, he's an enemy after all. Before the house collapsed, Zhang Nianzu could have run away, but he rushed over to save us instead. The difference between these two people - taste it, taste it carefully."
Jack sneered, "Who doesn't know how to buy people's hearts?"
Wei Biao said, "Everyone can win people's hearts, but I still admire him for risking his life to win people's hearts. In fact, what impressed me most was not that he saved Liu Xinliang and the lives of the two old men. If the house collapsed, no one would be safe. If Zhang Nianzu only cared about money, he should have saved Du Heng. But he rushed to us without hesitation. This choice can show a person's inner thoughts. So, if I have to vote between these two people, I will vote for Zhang Nianzu ."
Liu Xinliang said: "Sure, old man, it turns out you are not confused."
Wei Biao said, "What kind of people have I not met in my life? It's not that easy to deceive me."
