Chapter 226: The Craftsmen's Guild (2)
"The matter has come to this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to change," Sun Gan didn't pay attention to Chen Zhang, who was at a loss, but arched his hand towards Dong Pan and said, "Please also ask Dong Ye to persuade Dong Hou to prepare early, at this time, I am afraid that some people hate Chen Hai even more for asserting ...... without authorization."
Dong Pan's face was gloomy, and he was also unhappy in his heart, but he knew that what Sun Gan said was true. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Just as Qin Muhou Dong Shou said, once the news is announced, it will be irretrievable, and whoever wants to obstruct it will become the target of the public. No matter how angry they are, no matter how much they want to tear down Chen Hai's bones, they have to press it down first to deal with the changes that may occur next.
After all, Chen Hai made it clear that he would exclude the eight clans of Jingjun, the Musashi Army, and the Hexiang Army from the Craftsman Association.
Will Wen Boyuan be annoyed by Chen Hai's "betrayal" and act angrily, directly sending the Xiyuan Army to capture Juquanling?
In order to avoid the Xiyuan Army from swallowing Juquanling alone, Hexi must reach an agreement with other families to hold Juquanling as quickly as possible, and the action is a little late.
Although he was angry at Chen Hai's betrayal, he calmed down and thought that it was the best plan for Chen Hai to hand over Juquanling at this time, excluding the eight clans of Jingjun and enforcing the strong vassal of Nabian County. Otherwise, it will directly prompt the Miao clan, the Zhao clan and the Jingjun Eight clans to unite and expel the Hexi forces from Qintong Mountain.
But Dong Pan will not forgive Chen Hai because of this, although the Zhujia family has become a big trend in Juquanling, but Chen Hai can still delay the situation for another two or three years, and even if Chen Hai had the ambition to monopolize Juquanling, but after thinking that it would be difficult to monopolize Juquanling, why didn't he ask Hexi for help?
If Hexi can be laid out half a year or a year earlier, even if it can't swallow Quanling alone, it will not fall to the point of co-ordination with all families.
Dong Pan was annoyed in his heart, but the wood was already in the boat, and they couldn't play any tricks on their side, if they missed the opportunity and didn't get anything, Hexi would completely fall into passivity......
***************************
Dong Pan galloped through the starry night and rushed back to Meiwu Fort without delay, that is, he ordered more than 1,000 elite soldiers stationed in Meiwu Fort to enter Nanzhang Mansion through Qintong Pass in batches in the name of escorting supplies back to Hexi.
Like the Dong family, the Wu clan of Tianshui County was the first to get the news, and the three thousand elites also advanced eastward in the name of the marching mission and stagnated in Nanzhang Province.
It was only at this time that the British Prince's Mansion knew that the Craftsmen's Association was about to be established and that Chen Haishi was going to hand over Juquanling to the eight Taoist academies, and behind these eight Taoist academies stood the Hexi Dong clan, the Tianshui Wu clan, the Northern Miao clan, the Southern Yue clan and other sect lords, except for the Tianshui Wu clan, the other seven families were all princely clans.
"Unfamiliar wolf-hearted thieves, unfamiliar wolf-hearted thieves!"
The roar in the British King's Mansion was like a thunderstorm pouring down, and the guards and attendants were all frightened, but they didn't expect that the Nineteen Kings, who were usually temperamental, would also have a day of thunder, and they didn't know what happened to make the usually gentle and elegant Nineteen Kings so angry.
It's just that when these guards and attendants pricked up their ears and wanted to listen to it again, they saw that the voice of the inner house seemed to be covered by an invisible barrier, and it didn't leak out at all, but they saw Lord Wen Boyuan, the lieutenant general of the Su Guard, who was facing away from the hall, saying something to the nineteen kings.
"I don't want to listen to your explanation, the Gu Soul Pill doesn't play a role at this time, when will it be?"
On the Panlong Treasure Chair, King Yingshu was wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe, and his face was full of uncontrollable anger.
"Chen Hai's management of Juquanling has long been a big trend, at this time, even if we control Chen Hai, we can't stop the families from robbing the heart of Juquanling, once they turn their faces, the families turn to support the prince, and the situation in Gyeonggi is afraid of twists and turns!" Wen Boyuan persuaded helplessly.
"Then sit back and watch them divide Juquanling?" asked Ying Shunu.
"Anyway, Qin Tongshan is under the control of the Xiyuan Army, even if it doesn't directly interfere in Juquanling, but all the quenched iron, armor, and puppets that come out of Juquanling will not be missing a share of the Xiyuan Army," Wen Boyuan said patiently, "At least at this time, even if Chen Hai has a heart, it is not the opportunity for the Xiyuan Army to swallow Juquanling alone, and after the tail of the Tiger Ben Army is removed, how can the world get rid of the palm of the emperor and the prince, there is really no need to make a move at this time." ”
"But don't say much, Chen Hai's official positions such as General Suwei and General Craftsman have to be removed, and Zhao Sihan will be replaced by Zhao Sihan to preside over the Mojia Workshop in Tongbei Mansion, so that people in the world can't think that I am very happy to see Juquanling fall into the hands of his family. Ying Shu said with a calm face.
**************************
The undercurrent was surging, but the surface of Juquanling was calm, and the Xiyuan Army did not impose martial law in Tongbei Mansion and expelled all other forces, and the manpower of other forces in Tongbei Mansion did not say that they would unite, and the matter of the Craftsmen's Association soon officially surfaced.
At this time, there were a total of thirteen master craftsmen in the Juquanling Foundry and Smelting Field, and in addition to these thirteen master craftsmen, twenty-six craftsmen with considerable attainments in the puppets and refining tools were selected from the craftsmen of the Spirit Clearing Realm as members of the second echelon of the Craftsman Guild.
After several rounds of negotiations and consultations, the forces finally agreed to set up the Liquan Governor's Mansion in the newly built Liquan City, which was independent of Tongbei Mansion and the Jingying Army, and included Juquan Lake, Juquanling, and Shichengling, a radius of 120 miles of land, including Juquan Lake, Juquanling, and Shichengling, under the jurisdiction of the Liquan Governor's Office.
In addition to the Taoist institutes, foundries and mansions set up by the Marquis of Zhaoyang Pavilion in Liquan, the original Quenched Iron Smelting, armor, armaments, shipbuilding and other affairs set up in Juquanling, as well as more than 50,000 acres of grain fields and other assets, were transferred to the jurisdiction of the Liquan Governor's Office.
As a condition for the redemption of the right to be handed over, the subsequent Liquan Governor's Mansion needs to transfer 20% of the annual surplus of revenue and expenditure to the Zhaoyang Tinghou Mansion.
The Liquan Governor's Office, including the Grand Priest and the Left and Right Divisions, the Governors, and the principal managers of the foundries and smelters, were either selected from among the members of the Craftsmen's Guild or recommended by the Craftsmen's Guild, but ultimately decided by the Craftsmen's Guild.
After absorbing some of the elites from the fishing and hunting team, the Huwei Battalion controlled the number of about 600 people, and in the future, it will continue to exist in the territory of the Liquan Governor's Mansion as the private soldiers of the Zhaoyang Pavilion Marquis Mansion, so as to ensure that the power and due benefits of the Zhaoyang Pavilion Marquis Mansion will not be excluded by the Craftsmen Association.
In addition to these 600 elites, there are still more than 3,400 soldiers and horses left in the fishing and hunting team, and the jurisdiction and command will be transferred to the Liquan Governor's Office, which will be responsible for the defense of Juquan Lake, Juquan Ridge, and Shicheng Ridge within a radius of 120 miles.
At this time, all the families couldn't wait to organize some of the elites of Juquanling into the fishing and hunting team to ensure that they had enough influence on the Liquan Governor's Mansion and the Craftsmen's Association.
The fishing and hunting team is still called the fishing and hunting team, but the number of people has expanded to 10,000, and almost all of the newly recruited members have the foundation of cultivation in the Xuan Realm.
Chen Hai handed over Juquanling to the Craftsmen's Association, which was actually handed over to the forces behind the members of the Craftsmen's Association, and the court followed, snatching his titles of General of the Guards and the Mojia Workshop, and he did not hold any position in the Liquan Governor's Mansion, although the first Grand Si Cheng of the Liquan Governor's Mansion and the elite lieutenant who commanded the 10,000 fishing and hunting teams should be in his pocket, but Chen Hai did not accept it, and he did not even participate in the Craftsmen's Association, but at this time, it was impossible for the Craftsmen's Association to exclude the Zhaoyang Pavilion Marquis Mansion, Su Yuan, Zhou Jingyuan, Ding Shuang and the three of them, as members of the Craftsmen's Association, represent the interests of the Marquis of Zhaoyang Pavilion.
It took only one month for the noisy craftsmen association to go from the initiative to the official establishment of the Liquan Governor's Office.
Zhou Jingyuan, Ding Shuang, Wu Meng, and Hu Weiying will all move out of Juquanling Mountain one after another, and they will rebuild a small city at the southeast foot of Juquanling, with the courtyard where the Cao clan and the Ding clan live, as the annex of the Zhaoyang Pavilion Mansion in Liquan.
Chen Hai's hospitalization in Zhongfeng Bamboo Forest was still retained, and everyone felt very embarrassed to see Chen Hai hand over Juquanling so neatly, and they always had to reserve certain privileges for Chen Hai.
In addition to the resentment of the Dong family and the eight clans of Jingjun, families like the Miao family and the Zhao family are still very happy to see the current situation.
*************************
The second snow after winter began to fall on Qintong Mountain, and the snowflakes were blowing one after another, and soon the surrounding mountains were covered with white.
The outside world was disturbed, but Chen Hai dived under the waterfall for a month, and sharpened the Xuanti quenching gold halberd on the whetstone by the stream over and over again, at this time, a spoonful of stream water, washed the blade, Su Aya stood aside with the wolf sword, Xuanti iron bow and quiver, and said without tears:
"This time, you have offended the Dong family, Mr. Wen, His Royal Highness the British King, the Hua family, the Shu family, the Du family, the Chai family, the Jiang family, and the eight clans of Jingjun, why don't you stay in Liquan to cultivate, and go out to travel?"
"I still know too little about this world, and this side of the matter, for the time being, forget my wish, I naturally want to go out for a walk. Chen Hai folded the Xuanti Quenched Gold Halberd into two, and put the Xuanti Iron Bow, Quiver and Wolf Slaying Sword into the halberd box, and wrapped the halberd box weighing more than 1,000 catties with black cloth, just like a long big robe carried behind him, and only tied the Blue Shadow Sword around his waist for self-defense.
Chen Hai had a storage ring with him, but the space circle inside required him to continue to consume true yuan to maintain, and when it was not urgent, he would rather carry the Xuanbing War Halberd on his back.
"......" has worked hard for so many years and handed it over to others, what is this called but a wish?
Su Aya couldn't guess what Chen Hai was thinking, and couldn't guess how broad-minded he was, so she just asked, "If you don't say goodbye, you still want to go to see County Lord Dong, right?"
Chen Hai's figure froze, turned to look at Su Aya's pitiful face, reached out and touched it, and sighed slightly: "Maybe I want to see him......"
"I will accompany you to travel the world, accompany you to meet Lord Dong, all the way, you must have someone to take care of you. Su Aya couldn't help the impulse in her heart and said.
"In the Craftsman Guild, I didn't reserve a seat for the Red Mei Sect, if the Red Mei Sect still wants to continue to buy quenched gold grade armor and quenched iron ingots from Liquan, you need to stay in Liquan to coordinate in the center," Chen Hai handed a letter to Su Aya and said, "After I leave, you will give this letter to Su Yuan and them, so that everyone will be annoy......ed by their mother-in-law and mother when they are separated."
