Castle of Black Iron - Chapter 1719

Chapter 1719: 1719

In Motian Realm, although there was not such a popular saying that any official in front of the gate of the prime minister was above LV 7, the phenomenon implied by this saying existed in Motian Realm too .

The position that Zhang Tie promised Leng Manxue was only a general manager; however, she was the general manager of Dragon Emperor and elders, even the five major departments of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Qianji Agency . From now on, these figures would work in the territory of this general manager . Therefore, Leng Manxue was actually involved in many things .

Zhang Tie really presented his sincerity through this position .

It was out of Leng Manxue’s imagination that Zhang Tie could promise her such a position .

“If I’m the general manager, what about Head Huang?” after being shortly silent, Leng Manxue took a look at Huang Baimei as she asked .

“Of course, Head Huang will stay in Dragon Emperor City too!” Zhang Tie took a look at Huang Baimei who used to be silent before answering, “At the beginning, Head Huang told me that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace wanted to train some powerful big formations of immortal generals . However, due to the conflicts between elders and grand justices, they couldn’t coordinate with each other and resources . As a result, the powerful big formations of immortal generals aborted . I prepare to found a new agency in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace called Dragon’s Teeth Army . Head Huang would be the commander-in-chief of this army . The entire Dragon’s Teeth Army would be composed of immortal generals, which was responsible for controlling and training those big formations of immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace…”

According to Zhang Tie, the position of commander-in-chief of Dragon’s Teeth Army was greater than the position of general manager . The one who could rule Dragon’s Teeth Army would control the greatest power of immortal generals in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace .

Huang Baimei had to open his mouth .

“Erm…wouldn’t it be the responsibility of the two grand justices?” Huang Baimei said as he watched Zhang Tie with a slight frown, “I think only grand justices of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace could assume such a high position!”

“The two grand justices have become elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace . Later on, they would join Qianji Agency and concentrate on cultivation and assisting me to deal with the affairs in the immortal palace . I would recruit two supreme immortal generals and appoint them as the new grand justices . As new immortal generals are not suitable to lead the Dragon’s Teeth Army, I think it suits Head Huang most!”

After heaving a deep sigh, Huang Baimei replied, “Your Majesty, you know, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is short of resources; especially element crystals which immortal generals need in cultivation . It could be said that the number of element crystals is decreasing constantly . If we want to found this Dragon’s Teeth Army, we have to consume a great number of element crystals, not to mention the fee for recruiting supreme immortal generals . Unlike common immortal generals, the immortal generals who join the big formations should be paid at least 20 element crystals per month so that they could follow your order!”

“I know . In many cases, immortal generals who join the big formations might see a high casualty when fighting high-level immortal generals . Additionally, they would train hard in daily lives . High rewards would attract dauntless ones . Therefore, we have to pay them higher compensation so as to maintain the loyalty, morale and smooth operation of the big formations!” Zhang Tie said calmly as he nodded .

It was not difficult for an immortal palace to recruit some loyal and dauntless immortal generals . Some immortal generals could even sacrifice themselves for the sake of the immortal palace without any compensation . There were always such immortal generals in each immortal palace, making immortal palaces immortal .

However, it was different than the big formations of immortal generals as a big formation was composed of thousands of immortal generals; instead of 10 immortal generals or so . Nobody could make thousands of immortal general live on loyalty and greatness . Only high compensation and severe laws could drive them effectively .

“Glad to hear that Your Majesty knows it . I’m afraid that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace couldn’t bear such great expenditure anymore . Besides contradictions between elders and grand justices, what counted most for the failure of the founding of big formations at the beginning was the high expenditure of the founding of big formations . Your Majesty, you know that elders have already sold Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace’s Immortal Wind Palace in Dragon Emperor City to the Emperor NvWa’s Palace . Daily consumption of element crystals would be a big problem facing Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace if we want to found the big formations of immortal generals . A fundamental big formation of 1,000 immortal generals would cost over 20,000 element crystals a month . Even if Your Majesty could persuade the elders and have Earth-Elements Department distribute element crystals, as long as the storage of element crystals in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace decreased, the normal operation of the immortal palace would be stagnated severely for sure . By then, immortal generals might be not that loyal to Your Majesty and Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace anymore .  As for Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, before we enjoy the benefits of the big formations of immortal generals, we might have already tasted its bad effects . Please think twice, Your Majesty!”

Watching Huang Baimei’s serious face, Zhang Tie realized that he was right about the man . After being appointed as the commander-in-chief of Dragon’s Teeth Army, Huang Baimei kept talking about the threats and disadvantages facing Dragon’s Teeth Army . If not being loyal to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, how could he talk to Zhang Tie about these words?

That was the right man that Zhang Tie needed .

“What if I could meet the provision of element crystals for the big formations of immortal generals on the premise that the current storage and consumption of the element crystals are not influenced?” Zhang Tie refuted .

“Your Majesty, you could meet the demand of element crystals for the big formations of immortal generals?” Huang Baimei asked as he took an amazed look at Zhang Tie . Closely after that, his heart raced as he suddenly realized something, “Has the Grand Dragon Emperor prepared enough element crystals for Your Majesty?”

No wonder Huang Baimei would think so . Even though he still doubted Zhang Tie’s identity as the disciple of the Dragon Emperor, he immediately thought about the former Dragon Emperor after hearing Zhang Tie’s words . At the same time, he became more confident about Zhang Tie’s identity as the disciple of the former Dragon Emperor .

“Never mind the details . No matter what, I will solve the provision problem by the end of this year!”

“If Your Majesty could really solve this problem, I would have no regret following your orders!” Huang Baimei answered decisively .

“Good!” Zhang Tie then fixated onto Leng Manxue, asking, “What about you?”

Leng Manxue took a look at Huang Baimei as she nodded . All of a sudden, she posed another question, “I wonder what jobs have you offered to Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin?’

“They’re still in Earth-Treasures Department . However, their positions are changed slightly . Ji Yuelan is the financial inspector of Earth-Treasures Department who is responsible for auditing and approving accounts over there; Jiang Ruoxin is the warehouse inspector who is responsible for supervising the treasuries in Earth-Treasures Department!”

Although the two positions were not too powerful in Earth-Treasures Department, they were pretty important . With these appointments, even the president of Earth-Treasures Department would not carry out any big malpractice over there . Therefore, the right of property of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was firmly in the grasp of Zhang Tie .

“What about us? What about us? Your Majesty, what good jobs have you arranged for us?” Liu Meng felt his heart racing as he couldn’t help asking Zhang Tie soon after Zhang Tie finished his words .

“You and Liu Yong will help me take care of Dragon Emperor City . From then on, you two would be the municipal commanders-in-chief of Dragon Emperor City . You’re responsible for the officers and soldiers of the nine camps in Dragon Emperor City . As those officers and soldiers are all below immortal generals, you two could easily gain popularity among them!”

“Ah? But I don’t have any experience . ” Liu Meng said as he scratched his head, “Additionally, I’m not familiar with Dragon Emperor City . I’m afraid…”

“Don’t worry . I’ve fetched an assistant for you two . He’s Xu Gang, the local tyrant of Dragon Emperor City . If you have any questions, just ask him…” Zhang Tie said with a smile, “You two could take the office tomorrow…”

After hearing that, Liu brothers were broth thrilled…

Huang Baimei then took a deep look at Zhang Tie as he was shocked by Zhang Tie’s tactics . The others might not understand Zhang Tie’s arrangments; however, Huang Baimei understood it at once . With these pieces, Zhang Tie completely controlled the entire city, which meant that he controlled the entire Dragon Emperor Big Domain and the entire Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace . No matter how chaotic were the other places in Dragon Emperor Big Domain, it would be in Zhang Tie’s control…

When he thought about that, Huang Baimei started to feel a bit embarrassed for his faint suspicion of Zhang Tie .

‘How could such a person come out of nowhere? He’s definitely the disciple of the former Dragon Emperor…’
