The Strongest War God Chapter 161 The Yackley Family's Third Master

161 The Yackley Family’s Third Master

This scene stunned many people. They thought that Harold Sage had gone crazy.

He had actually voted for this brat from the Neal family.

Harold’s aloofness was well-known in Preston’s circle. He was actually willing to quit and turn around to help Braydon Neal.

It was simply unbelievable!

After all, the Sage family’s withdrawal was to help Braydon with all their might.

Then, the Sage family’s connections and the bosses who were close to the Sage family would all vote for Braydon.

When everyone had yet to recover from their shock.

“The Thomas family withdraws as well!” Grant Thomas said in a serious tone.

Just as he had finished speaking, he turned around and cast his vote for Braydon.

The two great families had given their all to help, and the votes were on Braydon.

The votes of two directors were equivalent to the votes of twenty ordinary members.

Such a turn of events caught everyone by surprise.

Even the members of the Chamber of Commerce who had good relations with the Thomas family and the Sage family did not know how to react.

Who should their votes go to?

At this moment, many people were anxious.

Braydon stood with his hands behind his back and chuckled.

“Everyone, please listen to me,” William Smith said in a low voice. “Since the establishment of the Preston Chamber of Commerce, we have always adhered to the principle of helping each other. We share our resources and information, and we all benefit from it!

“But the young master of the Neal family is an ancient martial arts pract.i.tioner. Since he’s a martial arts pract.i.tioner, why does he need to do business?

“All the bosses here know that doing business is not about fighting, but about courage, ability, wisdom, and so on. So, if the president of the Chamber of Commerce is a young man, what kind of development will the Chamber of Commerce have?”

…

William’s words were sharp, and he was obviously canva.s.sing for votes.

Braydon was indifferent and did not bother to argue.

Harold stood up and said, “Second Uncle William, who said that ancient martial artists are all about fighting? Braydon is the best choice in all aspects. He is in charge of the investment department of the Neal Corporation and made a net profit of more than 20 billion dollars overnight. Who here can achieve such a feat?”

His clear voice reverberated throughout the hall.

At this moment, no one needed to hide anything.

The ancient martial arts pract.i.tioners believed in the strong.

All the big bosses in the business world pursued profits. Everyone followed and listened to whoever was more capable.

In business, how many people have you seen who could not get over money?

As soon as these words came out, the crowd was all riled up.

If this was true, then the Neal family’s eldest young master was truly extraordinary.

No wonder he could attract Harold’s help!

“Harold, everyone knows about the marriage between the Neal and the Sage families,” Fabien Larson said calmly. “If nothing goes wrong, Braydon Neal will be the son-in-law of your Sage family in the future, your brother-in-law. There’s a limit to how much you can flatter him!”

Harold glanced at Fabien, then at William.

Obviously, because the Sage and Thomas families had sided with Braydon, the relations.h.i.+p between the seven great families in the hall had become a little delicate.

The Smith family and the Larson family seemed to have an alliance.

The Yackley family’s third master, Kevin Yackley, exuded a domineering aura from his thin body. “Cut the c.r.a.p. Let’s go straight to the votes. The votes are king. Don’t waste time!”

“Then, let’s start the voting!”

Fabien and William looked at each other and then at Theodore Quinn.

It was obvious that these two families wanted to pull the Quinn family over.

No matter what was said, the Quinn family was also one of the seven great families.

Although the Quinn family was in the last position, they also held a director position. One director vote was equivalent to ten ordinary votes.

More importantly, everyone knew that the Quinn family had been single-handedly raised by the Neal family to become one of the seven great families.

Therefore, to be able to win over the Quinn family was the best attack on the Neal family!

It was undoubtedly a slap in the face!

If the Neal family’s dog had turned to vote for someone else. This was also a sign to the members of the Chamber of Commerce that they knew who they should support.

If Theodore supported Fabien, then who in the Chamber of Commerce would support the Neal family?

“Theodore, you don’t seem to be in a good mood tonight!” William walked over and smiled.

“Second Brother William!” Theodore quickly replied.

“No need to be so formal with me,” William said enthusiastically. “I heard about the fall out between the Quinn family and the Neal family. The Neal family went a little too far. They kicked the Quinn family out completely and made you lose all your money.”

Theodore forced a smile, but his heart was filled with hatred.

The Quinn family’s dozens of years of operation had been completely destroyed by Louis Neal.

The Quinn family was indeed in a crisis.

It was a huge debt crisis!

Fabien arrived quietly. “Theodore, don’t be discouraged. The Neal family can’t take over Preston’s new district alone. Right now, both of our families have big projects worth tens of billions. Funds have been drawn in from all sides. When it’s almost in place, we can bring the Quinn family along!”

“One the project has been completed. If the Quinn family is involved, they can make at least ten points of profit from this project. The minimum is one billion!”

William said quietly.

Theodore was tempted. To be able to cooperate with the Larson and Smith families was undoubtedly the biggest temptation for the Quinn family in this difficult situation.

Fabien chuckled. “The price to pay is very simple. I just need your votes to be on me. Think about it. You only have ten minutes!”

Then, he and William turned around and left.

The number of votes on the screen kept increasing.

It was the era of technology now. There was no need to vote with pen and paper. One could vote anonymously by opening the website link on a mobile phone. It was simple, fast, and efficient.

Neither of them knew what the other was thinking!

Currently, there were seven directors.

Braydon Neal, 25 votes.

Fabien Larson, 19 votes.

William Smith, 8 votes.

Kevin Yackley, 31 votes.

Theodore Quinn, 0 votes.

Harold Sage and Grant Thomas had withdrawn from the voting and could not be voted on.

There was a total of 170 votes.

100 members were equivalent to 100 votes. The voting rights of the seven directors were equivalent to 70 votes.

What really exceeded everyone’s expectations was the Yackley family’s third young master, Kevin Yackley, who was ahead of everyone else!

At this moment, Fabien’s face was dark as he looked at Kevin.

“The Yackley family’s third master, you truly live up to your name, obtaining so many people’s help in secret without anyone knowing!” He said in a low voice.

“Thanks for letting me win!” Kevin lightly smiled.

On the other hand, Harold’s expression darkened. He never thought that his people would be silently pulled away by Kevin.

Grant’s face was even gloomier.

He did not expect that he would be tricked as well!

This was how business was; there were no businessmen who were not unscrupulous!

There were no such things as solid allies. They were all profit-minded, and it was obvious that Kevin had given them more benefits.

In other words, other than the two votes from the Thomas and Sage families, there were only five people in the audience who voted for Braydon.

The votes were indeed a little low!

There were already 83 votes, and there were 87 votes left.

Without a doubt, apart from Harold and Grant, five director votes, which were equivalent to 50 ordinary votes, were held in the hands of the five great families.

In addition, there were 23 people who had not voted.

However, the votes were still moving.

Kevin looked at Braydon and smiled. “Young Master Neal, you can’t vote on yourself. Why don’t you and I vote for each other?”

“I won’t bother with such childish tricks.”

Braydon had actually rejected him.

Kevin’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He did not expect to be rejected.

Theodore, who was not far away, could not help but walk toward Fabien.

“My second uncle has some thoughts in mind.” Braydon’s thin lips moved slightly.

“Theodore Quinn, what are you doing?” Harold was furious.
