Chapter 264
"Wang Zhuren..."
The Deaf Old Lady was anxious.
She had used up many favors and paid a great price to get this one chance; she couldn't let Wang Zhuren ruin it with a single sentence.
"Old Lady, listen to me first."
Wang Zhuren was somewhat dissatisfied.
"The election is anonymous; when everyone votes, hold the black and white stones in your palm, you must take two stones."
"When putting them in, only put in one; don't let others see whether you are putting in a gray stone or a white stone."
"Does everyone understand?"
Wang Zhuren emphasized.
Everyone nodded.
The voting continued.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't sit still.
With open voting, he was watching from above; as long as people didn't want to offend him to death, they wouldn't dare cast an opposing vote.
Those who dared to cast an opposing vote in front of him were probably only Wan Ping'an, He Daqing, and Xu Fugui, a few people who couldn't change the overall situation.
Anonymous voting was different.
Who cast an opposing vote, putting the gray small stone in, he had no idea.
"Fortunately, I listened to the Old Lady's words, 'give and take'; I spread out two hundred and eighty yuan, hoping it will have the desired effect!"
Yi Zhonghai muttered in his heart.
"I abstain!"
Wan Ping'an was too lazy to even cast an opposing vote.
Crack!
Yi Zhonghai heard the sound of teeth cracking, and a sharp pain came from his mouth.
He glared fiercely at Wan Ping'an, but there was nothing he could do; if he dared to make a scene, the voting meeting would be ruined, and he wouldn't have a chance!
Soon.
The voting was completed.
"Come, move the table to the middle of the crowd."
"Open the ballot box, everyone supervise together!"
Wang Zhuren commanded.
In front of everyone, the ballot box was opened; the stones inside were gray and white, which made Yi Zhonghai's heart skip a beat.
Why were there so many gray stones?
Did the people who took his money not vote to support him?
"One gray stone, one opposing vote!"
Liu Haizhong announced the vote.
"050" was responsible for counting the votes.
"One opposing vote!"
Yan Fugui confirmed again.
"One white stone, one approval vote!"
Liu Haizhong continued.
Yi Zhonghai's fists were clenched tightly.
"Voting verification complete."
"Approval votes exceed half."
Yan Fugui finished counting.
The voting record was handed to Wang Zhuren.
Picked out from the ballot box, the gray stones were piled in one heap, and the white stones were piled in another; the white ones were clearly more numerous than the gray ones.
Yi Zhonghai's heart was put at ease.
Thrillingly passed!
However, he was very annoyed.
The people who took his money definitely included those who took the money but didn't do the job; they said they would vote for approval when taking his money, but cast an opposing vote when it came to the actual voting.
"Yi Zhonghai, I announce that from now on, you are the acting First Elder, with a six-month probation period."
"Remember the mistakes you made in the past and constantly remind yourself."
"Don't make mistakes again!"
Wang Zhuren looked at Yi Zhonghai.
Under normal circumstances, when a managing elder took office, he should encourage them a few words.
But facing Yi Zhonghai, there was only a reminder!
No encouragement!
"Wang Zhuren, rest assured, I have reflected deeply and will never make the same mistake again!"
"I guarantee it to you, Wang Zhuren!"
"At the same time, I also guarantee it to everyone!"
Yi Zhonghai felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Why wasn't there a single word of encouragement?
Wang Zhuren nodded and left.
The crowd dispersed one after another.
Yi Zhonghai sent the Deaf Old Lady home.
"Zhonghai, this time you offended Wang Zhuren terribly."
"He originally didn't agree to you being the First Elder, not even as an acting one; it was I who used my connections to pressure Wang Zhuren and force him to agree."
"It's normal for him to have an opinion about you."
"Find an opportunity, bring sincerity, and go apologize to Wang Zhuren."
"He is the Director of the Subdistrict Office, and you are the First Elder of the Sihe Academy; if he doesn't support you, you won't be able to sit securely in this position!"
The Deaf Old Lady sighed.
She didn't want to offend Wang Zhuren either.
But to get Yi Zhonghai to be the First Elder again, this was the only way, and then they could slowly repair the relationship.
At the same time.
It was also a test and exercise for Yi Zhonghai.
"Old Lady, I understand."
"By the way, Old Lady, during the voting, Wan Ping'an abstained; do you think he will pull any tricks?"
Yi Zhonghai was a bit uneasy.
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
The Deaf Old Lady sighed.
"The truth!"
Yi Zhonghai wasn't stupid.
He knew the truth would definitely be hard to hear.
"The truth is that he won't touch you, so you don't need to worry."
"It's not that he can't touch you, but that he doesn't take you seriously, thinking you're just a mouse, an ant, that he can step on and kill at any time."
"Is that heart-wrenching?"
The Deaf Old Lady looked at Yi Zhonghai. ===== CHAPTER 266 =====
