Chapter 1218: High-Power Alcohol Production Base


Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Over the half past year, although Zhang Tie was not in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, he was still paying special attention to everything in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory .

The construction of the site of Iron-Dragon Sect was one of the most attractive things to Zhang Tie . Zhang Tie knew that Threerocks Construction Business Group had mobilized over 300,000 people, hundreds of airships of all types and over 10,000 sets of mechanical equipment and vehicles to build the site of Iron-Dragon Sect in the half past year . Even now, over 2,000 craftsmen were still constructing the site of Iron-Dragon Sect a day .

With such a large scale and great efforts, Threerocks Construction Business Group carried out multi-tasks at the same time . Some high-class highways leading to Youzhou Province, Yanzhou Province and the other places across Youzhou Province from Xuantian Eighteen Mountain Peaks had been open to the traffic in the half past year . Various buildings and living facilities on Xuantian Peak were also gradually improved .

Last night, Zhang Tie shocked the public too much . Even Bai Suxian couldn't believe that Zhang Tie invented dual-drive engine which couldn't even be invented by senior mechanical engineers .

Therefore, early morning, they all urged to visit the production bases of Zhang Tie in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory .

Undoubtedly, Bai Zhengnan, Bai Suxian's elder brother was most interested in Zhang Tie's high-power alcohol and new-type airplane .

As the royal highness of Lord Guangnan's Mansion, Bai Zhengnan ruled over 10 corps in the south border of Taixia Country . He understood military affairs, people's livelihood and political affairs . Therefore, he was the first one who saw the great value of Zhang Tie's high-power alcohol and new-type airplane . After those knights talked it through with Zhang Tie last night, Bai Zhengnan rushed to the warehouse of Xuantian Peak and teleported all those barrels of high-power alcohol into his portable space-teleportation equipment with the reason that those lanterns over Immortals Gathering Peak lacked fuel and he felt this high-power alcohol was proper; therefore, he moved them himself instead of bringing trouble to Zhang Tie .

Before going to bed, Zhang Tie heard this message from his subordinates and became speechless about that .

'How could those lanterns on Immortals Gathering Peak need fuel like those inferior lanterns? It's absolutely a joke given the magnificence of Lord Guangnan's Mansion and Bai Suxian's daily needs . '

'Even if Immortals Gathering Peak really lack fuel, when did the royal highness of Lord Guangnan's Mansion become the butler of Immortals Gathering Pick?'

'Speaking of value, the production cost of those barrels of high-power alcohol is just a few silver coins . How could the royal highness of Lord Guangnan's Mansion take them away without my consent as if he was afraid that I wouldn't agree with him instead of feeling bashful?'



When Zhang Tie heard this news before going to bed, he forced a bitter smile .

This night, Zhang Tie lived in the Master's Pavilion of Iron-Dragon Sect on Xuantian Peak .

Master's Pavilion was not just a pavilion; instead, it was a complex which was connected by bucket arches and elevated high bridges . Being in the depth of the most beautiful wood, brook and garden on Xuantian Peak, the entire Master's Pavilion included Zhang Tie's main building, 21 various pavilions, buildings and courtyards for the loving of guards, maids, servants and Zhang Tie's family members . At least 300 people could live in the Master's Pavilion comfortably .

The entire Master's Pavilion had not been put in use yet . It was Zhang Tie's first time to live in it . Although it was a bit empty inside and not as boisterous as Zhang Mansion, Zhang Tie was still very satisfied with it .

Because the courtyard and facilities on Pines Peak had not been completed, Mountain Lifting Hermit lived in an elder's courtyard on Xuantain Peak for the time being; Lu Zhongming, Lin Huanxi, Donder and Zhang Su had their own courtyards; Zhang Tie's disciples had long got their residences on Xuantain Peak; Bai Suxian and Bai Zhengnan directly flew to Immortals Gathering Peak and lived there .

As her elder brother and so many knights were here, Bai Suxian felt embarrassed sleeping with Zhang Tie; therefore, Zhang Tie enjoyed a rare, personal sleep .

This night, there were only 5 people in the Master's Pavilion, Zhang Tie and 4 of his disciples .

Liu Xing and Zhao Bing were responsible for Zhang Tie's safety when he was sleeping; Qian Bingbing and Zhang Yawei served as Zhang Tie's maids .

Serving one's master when in need . Almost everyone in Taixia Country felt it was reasonable . It was not just a lip service . Because Iron-Dragon Sect had not established its personnel affairs system, Zhang Tie's Master's Pavilion didn't have enough servants; therefore, on the first evening when Zhang Tie came back, his disciples were on night duty for Master's Pavilion .

Zhang Tie was not used to that; however, he knew that it was absolutely acceptable in Taixia Country . Additionally, those people were arranged by Liu Xing . Given their facial expressions, they all felt very honorable serving as Zhang Tie's guards and maids . Now that they were all excited, Zhang Tie didn't need to say anything else .

Liu Xing, Zhao Bing, Qian Bingbing and Zhang Yawei stood there still overnight .

After a few hours' deep sleep, Zhang Tie had woken up before daybreak .



The moment Zhang Tie got up, Qian Bingbing and Zhang Yawei had opened the bead curtain and entered Zhang Tie's bedroom . Before they started to help Zhang Tie put on clothes and cleanse up, Zhang Tie said bashfully, "Erm . . . I will do it myself!" .

"Master, do you blame Yawei and I for being ham-handed and want to be served by other senior or junior sister apprentices? Are you chasing us away?" Qian Bingbing opened her mouth . At the same time, the two female disciples' eyes were filled with glistening teardrops . With innocent looks, they almost cried .

Facing such a situation, although he was their master, Zhang Tie could only stay silent . Zhang Tie had a similar experience . At school, sometimes, a teacher's casual sentence might make a student unhappy for many years, even cause a knot in his heart . Therefore, besides preaching his knowledge to disciples, Zhang Tie always reminded himself that he had to pay attention to his diction in front of his disciples . "Whoops, alright, but you don't need to stand outside overnight if you still want to be on night duty in the future!"

"Don't need to stand outside . . . Master . . . Master . . . do you want us to help you go to bed?" Zhang Yawei whispered as she lowered her head .

The two female disciples blushed at once as they lowered their heads and peeped at Zhang Tie .

If it was a male disciple in front of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie had long slapped him and sent him flying away . However, they were two female disciples . Zhang Tie became speechless, 'What are the two girls thinking about?'

Now that he couldn't slap them and send them flying away, Zhang Tie could only straighten his face as he flicked Zhang Yawei's head by finger in an imposing manner .

Zhang Tie had determined to establish his personnel affairs system in Iron-Dragon Sect . At least, he could select some dare-to-die members from those gifted by Lord Guangnan's Mansion and have them assume the night duty for these guards and maids . With so many girls on his side, he might have love affairs with them one day . Similar things were not fresh in Taixia Country . Take Nangong Sheng the master of Immortal Fist Position Sect as an instance, some of his current concubines who accompanied him to attend the rotating chakra ceremony were his former disciples . As for knights, such romantic affairs were acceptable . Some sentimental love stories might be deducted from such affairs . However, Zhang Tie could barely accept such affairs .

Perhaps, he was deeply impressed by Miss Daina . The relationship between him and Miss Daina was always a hazy and pure friendship between teacher and student . Therefore, Zhang Tie unconsciously treated Miss Daina as a model and would never break the friendship between a teacher and a student .

As of now, although Miss Daina couldn't teach him anything more; what she instructed Zhang Tie were deeply buried in Zhang Tie's memory . The last lesson of Miss Daina taught Zhang Tie how to be a qualified teacher .

This was a sort of memory that could only be understood by Zhang Tie .

"Hahaha, young brother Zhang Tie . The day is breaking . Will we take a look at the production base of high-power alcohol and dual-drive engine that you taught us last night?" Bai Zhengnan's loud laughter drifted from the sky . Soon after he flew off Immortals Gathering Peak, his voice had reached the Master's Pavilion on Xuantian Peak .

This was a senior tactic of voice transmission . In this means, the voice could reach over 10 miles away . When it reached the destination, it would diffuse as if he was talking to you in front of you . Ordinary earth knights could barely grasp this skill .

Before Zhang Tie went to wake him up, the royal highness of Lord Guangnan's Mansion had left for Zhang Tie's Xuantian Peak and urged him to get up . Perhaps, the royal highness didn't even fall asleep last night . As for a knight, they only needed to enter meditation by crossing their legs with eyes closed for a short while to recover their spirit and energy .

Bai Zhengnan's arrival broke the embarrassed atmosphere in Zhang Tie's bedroom coincidentally .

. . .

When Zhang Tie put on his clothes, cleansed up and walked out of the Master's Pavilion, Liu Xing and Zhao Bing in iron armors both bowed towards him outside the Master's Pavilion with gleaming eyes .

"Master!"

"Hmm, thanks!" Zhang Tie threw a glance at them . After standing outside the Master's Pavilion overnight, the two men's iron armors had been covered with hoar-frost and dew .

"It's disciples' responsibility to serve our master!"

Bai Zhengnan and the other knights had just arrived at the opening land outside Master's Pavilion and were waiting for Zhang Tie to come out .

"Have you had breakfast?" Zhang Tie asked .

"How about having breakfast on the airboat? I've already had people to prepare it on the airboat!"

Bai Zhengnan answered . Feng Cangwu shrugged . Mountain Lifting Hermit didn't say anything . Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi revealed a smile . With red eyes, Donder might not have a good sleep last night . Zhang Su was waiting for Zhang Tie's decision . Bai Suxian looked curious .

Watching the expressions of the other knights, Zhang Tie said, "Let's go then . . . "

. . .

In less than half an hour, soon after they finished their breakfast on the airboat, the airboat had already landed on a vast and smooth land in the south of Dongyang City within Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory which bordered Gaoping Prefecture in Yanzhou Province . Right in the middle of this open land which covered over 1,400,000 square meters, there were rows of huge erect metal cans and intensive pipelines .

This was the first production base of high-power alcohol within Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory according to Zhang Tie's plan .

The airboat directly landed on an open land within the production base of high-power alcohol .

Soon after the airboat parked, a lot of armored guards had swarmed up from all directions while blowing whistles . At the same time, they had pulled their sabers out of their sheaths as if they were facing a sharp enemy .

These ordinary guards could barely see senior airboat in usual times . After the rotating chakra ceremony, Zhang Tie returned his Iron-Dragon airboat to Taiyi Fantasy Sect; therefore, it was difficult for them to identify whether this airboat came from Lord Guangnan's Mansion or other places .

The airboat arrived abruptly without any notice . Therefore, these guards could only surround the airboat rapidly; meanwhile, having people notice the director of the base . They also knew that those who could take a flight by airboat were definitely not commoners .

Zhang Tie didn't open the hatch door of the airboat at once . Zhang Tie was also waiting for the arrival of the director . If he went out at this moment, these guards might not be able to identify him . In case of any trouble, he didn't feel like explaining anything to them .

Only after a short while, the boss of Zhongpin Business Group in Dongyang City, which was a branch of Li Clan of Wansheng Palace in Wuhua Prefecture, Zhuozhou Province had run over here while smoothening his clothes .

At the sight of Li Tao, Zhang Tie had people open the hatch door . After that, he walked out of the airboat .

Li Tao had seen Zhang Tie twice . The construction of this high-power alcohol production base was a task that Zhang Tie delivered to Li Tao . Li Tao was invited to attend Zhang Tie's rotating chakra ceremony too . However, on that occasion, Li Tao was just a trivial person like Lu Yishan . It was already his great honor to have a seat in the auditorium . By contrast, those who were waiting to be received by Zhang Tie in Xuantian City together with him were not even qualified to talk to Zhang Tie . However, in this rotating chakra ceremony, Li Tao knew the real identity of Cui Li and was in much more awe of Zhang Tie because of the talents that Zhang Tie exposed .

At the sight of the young man walking out of the hatch door, Li Tao became slightly stunned . Closely after that, he bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie and said, "Master, Li Tao feels sorry for being late!"

Watching Li Tao's movement and hearing his words, those surrounding guards hurriedly put their sabers back into the sheaths as they knelt down by one knee towards Zhang Tie .
