At the beginning of July, the news that Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang separated from each other aroused a great shock in Youzhou Province. If it was just a common major clan's separation, it would be fine; however, Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang were both famous in Youzhou Province. They were almost the most attractive brothers across Youzhou Province. Of course, the news that they separated from each other would arouse people's attention.
Another reason that Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang separated from each other was that Zhang Tie had made a high-profile announcement in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory — — Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory would seek business groups and clans to cooperate with each other in producing Fiery Oil across Taixia Country.
The moment this news was released to the public, many people had sprung up at the sight of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory.
In the past months, Zhang Tie might not have discovered that the entire Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory had long become the focus of many clans across Taixia Country with the development of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory's Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory.
Anyone with a bit intelligence would never ignore the great economic and military value of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory; especially after Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory had proved the value of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory intuitively with new engines and airplanes in the sky, all the major clans in Taixia Country became restless.
However, those who were qualified to be involved in the business of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory were definitely not ordinary clans and business groups. Besides focusing on Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory's Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, they were also focusing on Xuanyuan Hill.
In Xuanyuan Hill, the news that Meng Shidao, the leader of the Gobbling Party, was going to take over the position of prime minister and ascend to the position of one of the three most prominent chancellors in Taixia Country had been confirmed.
The animosity between the Gobbling Party and Zhang Clan of Huaiyuan Palace; especially Zhang Tie the Qianji Hermit had long been known in Taixia Country.
When Meng Shidao was going to ascend to the peak of power in Taixia Country in Xuanyuan Hill, many major clans in Taixia Country were weighing the gains and losses if they approached Qianji Hermit and Huaiyuan Palace for the sake of Fiery Oil.
Because major clans across Taixia Country were hesitant and wait-and-see and tacitly treated Fiery Oil with their clans' influence, to a great extent, the emergence of Fiery Oil, which was an epoch-making fuel in Black Iron Age, became mediocre. Besides some shocks in Youzhou Province and Northeast Military Region, it didn't arouse too much attention.
Of course, this was just a superficial and temporary phenomenon. In the final analysis, it was due to the great value of Fiery Oil.
The major clans in Taixia Country could consider it slowly here as they didn't want to be favored by the top three chancellors of Taixia Country. However, many people in Taixia Country didn't care about who the top three chancellors of Taixia Country were.
After Lord Guangnan's Mansion and Heavens Fortune Sect announced that they started to produce Fiery Oil on a large scale in South Border and their respective territories, the major clans in Taixia Country gradually relaxed their attitude.
It was like a group of hungry kids watching a cage of fresh steamed buns a few meters away. After watching the steamed buns on the table, the kids forcefully swallowed their saliva. After that, they looked at that adult who was holding a whip and standing upright somewhere as they became hesitant inside. After exchanging a glance with each other, they all wanted to have a try; however, none of them wanted to rush out first. They were all waiting for the first one who was brave enough to rush out first …
The kids knew that the law couldn't punish too many people; however, the first one who rushed out first would definitely be out of luck.
When the kids were hesitating over the steamed buns on the table, two adults had already walked over there and started to chew the steamed buns.
The kids' saliva spurted out like a spring as they became more restless.
The kids were major clans in Taixia Country; the steamed buns were Fiery Oil; of course, the two adults were Heavens Fortune Sect and Lord Guangnan's Mansion.
Just as the group of children were hesitating, another person walked to the table and began to eat heartily.
This person was Guan Clan, Guan Qianchong, the commander of Black Armor Army in Taixia Country.
Guan Clan was the third partner of Fiery Oil in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory. After Guan Clan of Bright Martial Palace joined the feast of Fiery Oil, it became the last straw that broke the back of those major clans in Taixia Country. Because Guan Clan was going to cooperate with Qianji Hermit to produce Fiery Oil; additionally, Guan Clan brought the order of Fiery Oil and airplanes from Black Armor Army to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory. After that, Black Armor Army assigned 2,000 airship crew to learn how to drive airplanes in the aviation school of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory. …
Black Armor Army was one of the top four armies in Taixia Country. Such an army was almost the benchmark of all the armies in Taixia Country. To a certain degree, the attitude of Black Armor Army was the attitude of the top four armies in Taixia Country, the military of Taixia Country and one of the three chancellors in Xuanyuan Hill.
Black Armor Army started to have a demand for Fiery Oil. What did it mean?
It meant that after a short silence, the military of Taixia Country and one of the three chancellors in Xuanyuan Hill had chosen the former given the value of Fiery Oil to the military, the face of the Gobbling Party and even Meng Shidao's mood.
Now that Black Armor Army had taken action, how could the other three top four armies remain indifferent? Now that the top four armies had taken action, of course, the provincial and prefectural armies in Taixia Country would not degrade themselves. Therefore, the future profit of Fiery Oil in Taixia Country was opened up at once.
Even though they didn't consider making money, the private armies of major clans would also try their best to improve the battle effectiveness of their clan troops with Fiery Oil as the benchmark of the top four armies. Even Lord Guangnan's Mansion, Heavens Fortune Sect and Guan Clan could put down their restraint, not to mention the other major clans.
Right then, the news that Qianji Hermit and his brother had separated from each other was spread. Closely after that, Qianji Hermit was going to seek for partners to produce Fiery Oil across Taixia Country.
Especially the latter news, as for those major clans in Taixia Country who had long been waiting for cooperation with Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, the moment they wanted to sleep, someone had sent them a pillow. Now that Qianji Hermit had decided to seek for partners across Taixia Country and intended to expand the production scale of Fiery Oil, it saved a lot of people's saliva.
In a split second, Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory was flooded with airboats once again.
However, only after a few days, Qianji Hermit had declared in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory — — All the major clans and clans that had a cooperative relationship with the lineal descendants of Tang Clan, the provincial governor of Shengzhou Province would be excluded from this grand feast of Fiery Oil. Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory would never cooperate with them.
After hearing this news, some people felt confused; some people felt thrilled inside. By contrast, those major clans that had a cooperative relationship with Tang Clan, the provincial governor of Shengzhou Province were dumbfounded.
Everyone knew that Tang Clan was the backbone of the Gobbling Party; however, why did Qianji Hermit directly fire at Tang Clan? After inquiring about it, someone had known the reason — — It turned out that a grandson of Tang Gaolin the provincial governor of Shengzhou Province, Tang Jiyao, came to Jinwu City to talk nonsense and slander the relationship between Qianji Hermit and his elder brother Zhang Yang a few days ago. Later on, he was arrested by people in Jinwu City and was put into the prison. Finally, the Supreme Court of Taixia Country rescued the grandson of the provincial governor of Tang Clan out of Jinwu City. Although he was rescued out of Jinwu City, the gossips of the grandson of Tang Clan and the cause and effect of this event also spread across Jinwu City and Youzhou Province. It was said that Qianji Hermit separated from his elder brother because of this event …
Of course, Qianji Hermit wanted to vent his anger on Tang Clan.
As a provincial governor's clan, Tang Clan had a lot of related clans by marriage. Now that they were connected by marriage, of course, it was normal for them to have business dealings. Actually, the marriage and business of major clans in Taixia Country were closely related.
Therefore, Qianji Hermit directly excluded these major clans that were related to Tang Clan from the Fiery Oil Feast …
However, 2 days after Qianji Hermit released his words, it was said that the marriage between Tang Clan, the provincial governor of Shengzhou Province and a major clan in Shengzhou Province had been ruined …
Zhang Tie's words caused numerous clans in Shengzhou Province and the neighboring provinces to be in a great turmoil …
Fiery Oil, grain disaster, the aftermath of the riot of bloody figures and the threat posed by the remnants of Heavens Reaching Church … this July was not only hot but also restless …
In the turmoil, the news that a demon army appeared outside a barren province in the west of Taixia Country and many cities in the barren province collapsed in one day spread over everyone's head in Taixia Country like a basin of ice water in the coldest winter …
