On the other hand, the workshop of the He Family offered quite a sum for the armor masters and puppet masters participating in the construction.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and worked here.
Upon hearing his words, a hint of emotion flickered across the faces of those who also hailed from prominent families in the city.
Who would have thought that even they, the elites of these families, would have days when they needed to work for others to earn money?
But, it was not bad earning money for themselves instead of relying on the family.
At the very least, they did not have to listen to other people’s orders. They just had to do their job well.
Compared to them, the common people outside the city and the low-ranking armor masters and puppet masters in the city felt even more joyous.
They hoped for days where they could earn origin coins every day without end.
Every day, they watched the workshop become more refined, planning for when the workshop was built and these good days came to an end.
“Bear with it. Wait for his workshop to be built.” Inside a mansion in the city, several old men sat around, and one of them spoke coldly.
“Indeed, the workshop seems to be almost built. When it’s constructed, most of the citys refining masters will be from our prestigious families, and he will have to rely on us.”
“Hmph, he’s only at level seven. I have already contacted the families in Maple Forest City, seeking their powerhouses to come over.”
“Maple Forest City? They have several level six powerhouses, and even a level seven expert, Sun Bing.”
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became cheerful.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
This waiting, feeling like they were about to be carved up, was truly painful.
No one knew which family the He family would challenge once they had spent almost all their money.
100,000 origin coins might not be much, but it wasn’t little either.
It was not to the extent of making a level four armor master lose face and admit defeat, nor was it to the extent of hurting the family clan.
But this kind of carving up was too painful.
“Moreover, that Chief Han is really outrageous. He seems intent on emptying Pagoda City,” an old man said coldly.
“Yes, he simply doesn’t care about our Pagoda City, nor does he care about the prestige of the Alliance of Refining and Forging Masters at all.” On the other side, a burly man in black robes gritted his teeth.
Those sitting here were the key figures of the major families, and they all had grievances that were hard to speak of.
“l have contacted the Alliance of Refining and Forging Masters in Yuyang City.” In the hall, the words of an elderly man in a green robe made everyone brighten up.
“Brother Zhang, what’s the result?”
“Brother Zhang has a lot of connections.”
Everyone looked at the green-robed old man expectantly.
These flattering words brought a smile to the face of the man in the green robe.
His name was Zhang Xuan, the head of the Zhang Clan in the city.
He was a level five Armor Master and a level four Forging Master.
With his status and connections in the Alliance of Refining and Forging Masters in Pagoda City, his family had gained many benefits.
Those refining and forging masters fawned over him because of his status. Even the three titans were polite when they saw him.
But now, he was nothing in the Alliance.
All of this was caused by the newcomer, Chief Forging Master Han Muye!
Zhang Xuan waved his hand, a hint of a cold smile on his face, then straightened up in his seat. “The bigwig of the Alliance of Refining and Forging Masters in Yuyang City, Xiao Kun, has an extremely good relationship with me.
“He promised me to ask his teacher to arrange for a level seven refining and forging master to come to Pagoda City.”
At this point, his face revealed a proud expression.
He looked at everyone and said softly, “Xiao Kun’s teacher used to cultivate in the Sun Cast Academy.”
A powerhouse who had cultivated in the Big City Academy!
Hearing Zhang Xuan’s introduction, everyone in the hall became even more excited.
“Report, He Yangsun has challenged Zhang family’s level four Puppet Master, Zhang Chaoyu, and will come to challenge tomorrow, with a wager of 100,000 origin coins.”
A report came from the door.
This voice made the smile on Zhang Xuan’s face turn icy.
The others also had strange expressions.
It was just a moment ago that they were still wearing flattery on their faces, and now their expressions of joy couldn’t cover up the gloating. The two expressions mixed together, making their expressions out of control.
“Hmph, I won’t give the He family 100,000 origin coins to make Zhang Chaoyu admit defeat.’
Zhang Xuan sneered as he slammed his palm on the table.
Hearing his words, the Zhang family members standing at the door cupped their hands and said, “Patriarch, Zhang Chaoyu has already accepted the challenge and prepared 100,000 origin coins.
“Zhang Zhaoyu said that he knew that the family head wouldn’t let him use the family clan’s origin coins. He used all his assets. If he lost, he would go to the He family’s workshop to work.
“The He family workshop has invited him to work there, as a designer, with a monthly salary of 8,000 origin coins a month.”
Laughter filled the hall.
Zhang Xuan smashed the long table in front of him into pieces.
“What do the He family and Chief Han want to do?”
This was the question the people participating in the workshop construction wanted to ask.
The members of Pagoda City’s Alliance also wanted to ask.
The three titans also wanted to know.
“Young Master He, how does it feel to take revenge?” In the He family manor, Han Muye walked forward with his hands behind his back and chuckled.
Beside him, He Yangsun and Yu Changdao, the titan of the Alliance of Forging Masters, followed.
Hearing Han Muye’ s words, He Yangsun quickly said, “Master Han, planning must be done with a long-term perspective. Understanding the enmity between the He family and the various families in the city makes it even more satisfying.”
Originally, knowing that his father had disappeared because of the pressure from those families in the city, He Yangsun harbored immense hatred. He was prepared to make a move when he returned to Pagoda City. Whether it was through challenges or assassinations, he wouldn’t let those families off easily.
He had even told his mother about it.
His mother told him to consult Master Han.
Thus came the present construction of the workshop and the challenge to the families to cut into their profits..
