The City Lord said, "Let's stick to the old rules, we'll decide by a slap on the table. Supporters just hit the table once, and in the event of a tie, we'll shelve it until the next meeting tomorrow."
Similar situations like this had occurred in the past, where major decisions faced deadlock as the various factions within the city could not come to an agreement.
This one day was to allow for the different factions to privately negotiate and exchange interests.
Originally, the next meeting would have to wait for three days, but after an incident occurred, it was shortened to one day.
There were six representatives at the scene, including from the City Lord's Mansion.
They represented the City Lord's Mansion, Elders' Council, Giant City Guard Army, Commerce Association Alliance, Three Great Families, and Fentian Temple's interests.
As the City Lord's words ended,
The representative of the Three Great Families was the first to smack the table.
