Chapter 1694: The Most Honorable Refining Master in the Alliance (3)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Alliance of Refining Masters suppressed the aristocratic families’ businesses to the point where they couldn’t function, and He Yangsun’s challenge was another slow but sure drain.
The construction of the workshops left the aristocratic families without the support of the common people.
Those aristocratic families became isolated.
Standing outside Pagoda City and looking at it, it seemed like a solitary city, filled with nothing but the elderly and infirm from those families.
A sense of emotion flashed across the face of Yu Changdao, who stood by He Yangsun.
Chief Han said that everything in the world depended on people. Without people, aristocratic families would no longer be aristocratic families.
At first, these words didn’t seem significant, but now, looking at the chaotic aristocratic families, he finally understood.
The path of revenge that Han Muye pointed out to He Yangsun was a hundred times more vicious than directly challenging them.
It was about uprooting the aristocratic families.
“But the construction of the workshops seems to be nearing completion, and the people gathered here will have nothing to do,” Yu Changdao said with some regret as his gaze fell on the bustling construction site ahead.
There were 12 large workshops spanning 2,000 feet in length and width and 100 feet in height. There were also various other accompanying buildings that had risen from the ground, ready to be roofed.
“Once the workshops are built, we can build roads. Once the roads are built, we can build cities,” Han Muye said calmly.
“Besides, constructing the workshops is just the first step; the most important thing is the work done within the workshops.
“They can earn one or two origin coins a day from workshop construction, but they can earn five or 10 origin coins a day from working in the workshops.” Han Muye’s words made Yu Changdao’s eyes widen.
Ten origin coins a day? With so many people here, won’t it cost nearly a million origin coins a day?
Not to mention the He Family, even if all the family clans and businesses in
Pagoda City are added together, they probably won’t be able to afford it, right?
“Chief, do we not need refining and forging masters for workshop construction?” Yu Changdao gasped, asking in a low voice.
He had originally thought that these 12 workshops required Pagoda City’s refining and forging masters to refine battle armors and battle puppets.
But from what Han Muye said, it seemed that there was no need for refining and forging masters at all. Instead, they were using these commoners for the work.
What could these commoners do?
Didn’t refining and forging masters come here just to be able to enter the workshops and receive guidance from Chief Han?
If they knew that the workshops weren’t built for them, the people in the Alliance would probably be furious.
Even if they didn’t dare to say it directly, it would damage the chiefs prestige.
“A refiner should do what a refiner does.” Han Muye waved his hand, looking at those figures driving the puppets and excavating soil. He was suddenly reminded of a saying from his previous life.
Who has the best technology for excavators?
Perhaps, this place would become a place that all the cultivators in the Galaxy Universe would remember in the future?
Hearing Han Muye’s words, Yu Changdao’s expression softened slightly. Since the chief said so, he would not let the refining masters of Pagoda City suffer losses.
As long as Chief Han, a level seven refining master, gave them some pointers, the refining masters of Pagoda City would definitely gain a lot.
This was what everyone wanted.
“Young master, there is a refining master outside the manor who claims to have come from another city and wants to see Chief Han.” A member of the He family approached, bowing to He Yangsun and the others.
A refiner from another city?
He Yangsun turned to look at Han Muye.
Han Muye’s expression remained unchanged as he looked into the distance. He wondered if this refiner from another city came alone or was arranged by someone else behind the scenes.
“Chief, you can let that refiner report to Pagoda City’s Alliance of Refining Masters first.” Yu Changdao looked at Han Muye and said in a low voice, “The Chief of Pagoda City is not someone anyone can meet just because they want
to.”
Not to mention a level seven Chief Refining Master, even a level five or six refining master had a high status within the Pagoda City Alliance.
They wouldn’t meet with ordinary refining masters at all.
“Since he came to see me specifically, I should meet him,” Han Muye shook his head, saying, “Please bring that refining master here.”
The He family disciple quickly turned around to invite him in.
After a moment, an old man with a white beard led a 15 or 16-year-old girl over.
These two were the grandfather and granddaughter who decided to come to
Pagoda City after witnessing Han Muye overpower two forging masters from Maple Forest City outside the wooden stockade back then.
When she saw Han Muye, a glimmer of light flashed in the girl’s eyes.
“I’ve seen you two before outside the wooden stockade near Maple Forest City,” Han Muye said as his gaze swept over them.
With his cultivation and perception, remembering everything at a glance was the simplest thing.
“Haha, I was planning to come to Pagoda City, but I didn’t expect Master Han to have already become the chief refining master of the city.” The old man laughed heartily, looking at Han Muye, and said, “l, too, am a refining master. I want to make a living under you.”
The old man’s face was full of smiles as he looked at He Yangsun and said with a smile, “You are also extraordinary.”
“This old guys cultivation is not bad. According to the civilization of the Primordial Universe, he has already reached the threshold of an Immortal Lord.’
“That’s the ninth level of the Galaxy Universe, a half-step Sage Realm expert.” The voices of Chaos and Golden Bird sounded in Han Muye’s ears.
A half-step sage level was considered top-notch within a radius of a million miles.
Except for Sun Cast City, which was a million miles away, the ninth level was the peak everywhere else.
“This guy’s alchemy skills are also not bad. Judging by the light of the Great Dao on his body, he has at least mastered eighth-level refining techniques,” the Five Elements Divine Furnace also murmured.
A level eight Refining Master and level nine Armor Master or Puppet Master, coming to Pagoda City to make a living?
Such a strongperson could manage a city on his own.
Han Muye chuckled and nodded and said, “Senior, how should I address you? What do you want to do in Pagoda City?”
He Yangsun was extremely smart. From Han Muye’s words, he immediately understood that the person in front of him was probably not ordinary.
“I’m Chen Mao. This is my granddaughter, Chen Die t er.
“l used to be a refining master, but later on, I got used to wandering in big cities, so I don’t remember my level.” He couldn’t remember his level.
Who would believe that?
Yu Changdao’s face froze.
Could this person in front of him have been sent here to cause trouble? “Since you don’t remember your level, you can get certified at Pagoda Citys Alliance of Refining Masters.” He pointed at Han Muye. “Isn’t the Chief
Refining Master of our Pagoda City here?”
A refining master who didn’t remember his level wanted to join Chief Han directly?
Even the three titans of Pagoda City hadn’t become close confidants of Chief Han yet!
A strong sense of vigilance emanated from Yu Changdao’s eyes.
“No need for level certification trials.” Smiling, Chen Mao shook his head and took out a golden card.
“l do have something that can prove my identity as a refining master.”
Chen Mao opened his hand, and on the palm of his hand, the golden card shimmered with two golden spiritual lines.
Yu Changdao’s gaze landed on the card. His eyes widened as he exclaimed, “The Alliance’s patented refining master identity card!
“You… you are an esteemed patented level two refining master recognized by the Alliance! ”
Seeing Chen Mao smile and nod, Yu Changdao quickly bowed.
“Greetings, I’m Yu Changdao, Pagoda City’s level six refining and forging master.”
He turned his head and whispered to Han Muye, “Chief, patented refining masters recognized by the Alliance are the most esteemed refining masters within the Alliance.
“Their knowledge and inventions are shared among all refining masters, and they enjoy privileges, benefits, and wealth from patent transfers within the
Alliance..
