Chapter 916: Attitude |
After Meng Zhang got the support of Changchun True Monarch, he left Changchun Outlook and rushed to Clever Machine Sect.
Clever Machine Sect is just a Gold Core sect, and it is famous for manufacturing and selling mechanical creations.
Later, it was a great fortune to have True Monarch Clever Machine, a Primordial Spirit cultivator, but before they could enjoy the benefits, Jiuqu League had a series of changes.
Jiuqu League became Jiuqu Province, and the big merchant families from Dali Dynasty invaded in large numbers.
Among all the local sects, Clever Machine Sect is one of the most damaged and lost sects.
Clever Machine Sect was originally best at manufacturing all kinds of mechanical creations, which was the foundation of the sect and the main source of income.
Through the sale of various mechanical creations, Clever Machine Sect accumulated a lot of wealth and gained a lot of benefits.
In terms of mechanical creations, Dali Dynasty's manufacturing level is far above Clever Machine Sect.
Dali Dynasty can manufacture more outstanding mechanical creations at a lower cost.
Don't look at the fact that Taiyi Sect and Clever Machine Sect have been trading partners for many years. Now Taiyi Sect prefers to choose products from Dali Dynasty when buying mechanical creations.
Clever Machine Sect lost its main source of income, and it was supported by its previous savings.
Later, it was a great fortune to open up a channel to trade with the Alien Invaders, but it was forced to close it.
Now, Clever Machine Sect can't even maintain the support of its disciples, and it can't even afford to buy materials for manufacturing mechanical creations.
If Meng Zhang had come a little later, Clever Machine Sect might have surrendered to those foreign big merchant families.
With the greed of these foreign big merchant families, they might have swallowed the entire Clever Machine Sect and completely swallowed it up.
But the whole sect was on the verge of collapse, and for survival, even if they knew it was a drink of poison, they had to drink it.
Meng Zhang's arrival brought a glimmer of hope to Clever Machine Sect.
In Meng Zhang's eyes, Clever Machine Sect's mechanical creations are still qualified as cannon fodder.
The disciples of Clever Machine Sect who are good at manipulating mechanical creations are not strong in Cultivation Base, but their fighting power is not weak.
In many cases, they can still be useful.
Meng Zhang had a long talk with True Monarch Clever Machine and gave him a lot of promises.
Meng Zhang promised that after the alliance was formed, Taiyi Sect would definitely place a large order with Clever Machine Sect, at least to ensure that Clever Machine Sect could operate.To be honest, Taiyi Sect is rich even compared to Clever Machine Sect.
The vast territory can provide abundant production. The production capacity of the sect itself is also above average.
Although it has lost the market in Jiuqu Province, it has opened up the market in Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle through Maple Leaf Mountain City, which is a stable source of income.
In the future, if Taiyi Sect can obtain resources from Heavenly Palace, it will be more confident.
In the war between Dali Dynasty and Jiuqu League, True Monarch Clever Machine originally owed Meng Zhang a favor.
He is still very confident in Meng Zhang's ability.
True Monarch Clever Machine was persuaded by Meng Zhang to decide to fully support Meng Zhang.
After leaving Clever Machine Sect, Meng Zhang did not continue to visit other local cultivation forces.
One reason is that everyone is not very familiar with each other, and the relationship is limited.
Secondly, Meng Zhang has more important things to do.
After Meng Zhang left Clever Machine Sect, he went north all the way and arrived at Jiuqu City, the provincial capital of Jiuqu Province.
After arriving in Jiuqu City, Meng Zhang went to visit his old friend Wen Dong True Monarch as usual.
Over the years, the two have been in contact from time to time, and at least the superficial relationship has been maintained well.
Because Governor Zhang Wei can look at Meng Zhang with a little more appreciation, Wen Dong True Monarch also attaches more importance to the friendship between the two.
After meeting, after a few unnutritious greetings, Meng Zhang got down to business.
He told Wen Dong True Monarch about his family's plan to join forces with local cultivation forces to form an alliance to resist the external big merchant family's step-by-step pressure.
After listening to Meng Zhang's words, Wen Dong True Monarch did not give an immediate answer, but turned the topic to other places.
After chatting for a long time, Wen Dong True Monarch finally settled Meng Zhang in his mansion.
Then, he went to the governor's mansion and reported the matter to the governor Zhang Wei can.
Zhang Wei can listened to the report and felt a little bit unpleasant by instinct.
As the ruler of Jiuqu Province, he naturally did not want the forces on the local side to form gangs and gangs and form a group to deal with the outside world.
But then he thought about what the foreign big merchant family had done.
After learning from the last lesson, these foreign big merchant family, at least on the surface, are more respectful to Zhang Wei can, and they dare not act on their own.
But sometimes, the first impression is bad, it is difficult to reverse.Zhang Wei couldn't afford to offend the powerful people behind these big merchant families and could not directly interfere with their actions.
But if they were left alone, who knew when they would cause a big mess.
As a superior, Zhang Wei still had quite a few tricks up his sleeve.
If these foreign big merchant families were allowed to dominate Jiuqu Province and control all trade, it would definitely not be a good thing.
If there was an opposing force that could restrain them, they would definitely be wary.
Meng Zhang's alliance with the local cultivation forces to form an alliance could provide such a restraining force.
Zhang Wei had a good impression of Meng Zhang and knew that he was a person who could tell the difference between the important and the unimportant, and who knew that the overall situation was more important.
For Wen DongTrue Monarch's report, Zhang Wei did not make a direct statement, but just said that he knew.
Wen DongTrue Monarch was good at guessing the intentions of his superiors and immediately understood Governer's meaning.
Not making a direct statement was also a kind of attitude.
No objection meant limited support.
After leaving the Governor's Mansion and returning to his own mansion, Wen DongTrue Monarch talked to Meng Zhang again.
He did not say that Meng Zhang's plan was feasible or not feasible.
He only warned Meng Zhang not to cause any trouble, and to avoid direct conflict with the foreign big merchant families such as the Great Passage Alliance, especially not to engage in a large-scale brawl and resort to violence.
Meng Zhang understood Wen DongTrue Monarch's meaning and also knew the general attitude of Governor Zhang Wei.
Wen DongTrue Monarch upheld the will of Governor Zhang Wei.
It seemed that in the matter of forming this alliance, there would be no official obstruction from the Dali Dynasty.
Although he had anticipated all of this beforehand, Meng Zhang finally let out a sigh of relief when he confirmed the Governor's Mansion's intentions.
Meng Zhang could not afford to be careless.
Jiuqu Province had not been under the rule of the Dali Dynasty for very long, but the laws of the Dali Dynasty had already begun to be implemented here.
The Dali Dynasty had always exercised tight control over the cultivation forces in the local area.
Although Jiuqu Province was a special case due to historical reasons, it was still not to be trifled with.
If they acted on their own without official approval, they might end up being accused of treason by their opponents.
