Chapter 814 I Will Risk Everything
Qian Wanguan!
It was an unfamiliar and inelegant name, but this name was now resounding throughout the entire Gods Bestow City and continued to spread throughout Gods Bestow Tribe.
The 13 Clans were the dictators of Gods Bestow Tribe, and they weren’t lacking in celestial stones and had never placed any value on businesses. In their opinions, absolute strength was the way to rule. With absolute strength, they could simply plunder other’s wealth as they desired. The entire Gods Bestow Tribe belonged to them; what need did they have celestial stones for?
After Situ Ao succeeded the position as Situ Clan Head, he toppled everyone’s philosophy!
There was a huge change in the Situ Clan a few generations before. That generation’s patriarch had ventured to a mystic realm in the Endless Deep Sea and had fallen there. He didn’t even manage to decide on the next Clan Head and the next successor, causing the Situ Clan to have internal strife which led to huge damage. The three other major clans profited from their misfortune and nearly drove the Situ Clan out of Gods Bestow Island.
For that period of time, the Situ Clan had been at the bottom in Gods Bestow City until Situ Ao’s father took the reins, restoring some influence back to the clan; but they were still at the bottom. After Situ Ao took over as the Clan Head and managed all of Situ Clan’s affairs, he rapidly developed their businesses and established the auction hall and many other businesses, allowing the Situ Clan to amass a huge quantity of celestial stones in just a few dozen years.
The rest of the three major clans snorted disdainfully and felt that the Situ Clan was going down the heretical path. They believed that the Situ Clan didn’t have a strong fundamental as they didn’t focus on nurturing more experts.
As a result, Situ Ao used facts to smack on the faces of the three major clans. After the Situ Clan amassed a large number of celestial stones, they secretly recruited countless experts and bought over many other clans, allowing the Situ Clan’s influence to constantly strengthen. In just a few dozen years, the Situ Clan was now the second clan of the city. If it wasn’t for the heaven-defying skill that Lei Clan’s Patriarch possessed, the Situ Clan would definitely be the no.1 clan in Gods Bestow Tribe.
The three major clans finally understood that those various clans did adhere to them, but they were purely adhering and getting squeezed dry by the three major clans. While the Situ Clan used all sorts of businesses to tie all these smaller clans together with their war chariot, where they all profited together and shared honor and humiliation together.
With more businesses, the Situ Clan could afford to bring in more people, unlike the three other major clans which had to pay those people for nothing after recruiting them.
Throughout the years, the three major clans had been influenced by the Situ Clan and started to put more emphasis on businesses. Like the Lei Clan’s Dueling Ground which was now the largest site for gambling. Even Nangong Yunyi, who was such an old-fashioned person, had opened up the Nangong Clan’s mystic realm to profit some money.
Situ Ao had been operating their businesses for dozens of years, and it was impossible for the three major clans to catch up in a short period of time. The business operations of the Situ Clan had made the three other major clans admit that they weren’t as good. Now that the Green Bird Merchant Association was joining, it would make the Situ Clan the undisputed no.1 business organization of the Gods Bestow Tribe.
The Situ Clan had plenty of businesses. In the massive Gods Bestow City, a third of the businesses had been controlled by the Situ Clan.
Right now… all these businesses were actually handed over for a single person to manage? This person wasn’t even a member of the Situ Clan, but some nobody, whose only impression to people was as Jiang Yi’s brother.
Without a doubt, Jiang Yi was very famous in Gods Bestow City, and Jiang Yi’s potential was worth it for Situ Ao to rope him in. It was very normal. However, suppressing all 108 elders of the Situ Clan and handing over all businesses to let Qian Wanguan handle. This was simply too shocking.
Everyone assumed that Situ Ao had gone crazy, and that included Jiang Yi and Huangfu Taotian!
Two individuals were sitting in Jiang Castle, looking at Situ Yixiao with a face filled with doubts and waiting for him to answer this question. Qian Wanguan wasn’t present today as he had too many things to do, and it was probable that everyone wouldn’t be able to see him for the next few months.
“Very simple!”
Situ Yixiao spread out his hands and said, “Wanguan is a genius. I, Father, and President Feng all agreed so. If he had five years, the entire Situ Clan’s assets would increase a few folds in value, allowing Situ Clan to become the no.1 clan in Gods Bestow Tribe.”
“Uh…”
Everyone was stunned, Qing Yu still blinked her dazzled eyes and asked, “Is that wretched fatty really that incredible?”
“He is!”
Situ Yixiao nodded repeatedly and said, “All of you don’t know this. Wanguan was previously managing one of our businesses for three months. That business was originally in a mess, but he had purged everything in just half a month. Three months later, he reported an increase in profits by triple the amount. During the assault on Devil Island, Father had decided a plan of battle and transferred some men to me. Everything afterward had been arranged by me and Qian Wanguan. I am ashamed to say this… actually, I didn’t even do anything. Before I gave any instructions, Wanguan had already done everything. The reason why the battle went so smoothly… was that Brother Jiang had the biggest contribution while Wanguan was made the second most contributions!
“In fact, all these were not considered anything as the most important factor was the Green Bird Merchant Association. As one of the three largest merchant associations in Gods Bestow City, they had occupied the city for tens of thousands of years. This merchant association had ten shareholders and up to a hundred clans who had provided interests to the association. Wanguan used merely ten days to convince everyone. Feng Buxi even appointed Wanguan to be in charge while he willingly steps down to be Wanguan’s assistant. A veteran merchant, who had been in business for over 70 years and one who even my father admires, had willingly become Wanguan’s assistant. I would like to ask… what other reasons do we have to not trust Wanguan?”
After Situ Yixiao finished talking, everyone fell silent. Jiang Yi and Zhan Wushuang exchanged looks with eyes filled with pride. For their brother to be so capable, to flourish, and to be highly regarded by so many people, they were truly proud of him.
Jiang Yi’s eyes flickered twice before he looked at Situ Yixiao and spoke sincerely, “Wanguan doesn’t like to cultivation and is only passionate about business. It is truly his fortune for the Situ Clan to offer him such a platform to display his capability. Only Uncle Situ and Brother Yixiao would be so bold as well. Wanguan only flaw is his obsession. I hope he can find a place called home in the Situ Clan. Jiang Nobody also wishes to be brothers with Brother Yixiao for life, and for Wanguan, I will risk everything.”
Jiang Yi’s final statement had made Situ Yixiao shiver.
Jiang Yi’s statement might be vague, but how could someone clever like Situ Yixiao not understand? It was impossible for Jiang Yi to enter the Situ Clan, and Situ Yixiao knew it clearly. When Jiang Yi said he would risk everything, it was obviously pointing to the… Divine Perception sorcery art.
In other words, Jiang Yi had indicated his stand. As long as the Situ Clan married Situ Yinian to Qian Wanguan, he would dare to put the Divine Perception as a betrothal gift and offer it to the Situ Clan.
The Situ Clan had the Void Transference, and if they corresponded it with the Divine Perception, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. Their goal of becoming the no.1 clan would be imminent. In the future, the Situ Clan would be able to eliminate anyone they wanted to.
Situ Yixiao smiled bitterly and cupped his hands while saying, “Yixiao naturally wants to be brothers with Brother Jiang for life. For this matter, I still have to seek the intention of my father and the elders. Furthermore, Wanguan will also have to work hard to win my sister’s heart. We will cross the bridge when we get there. Let’s not talk about this now. Shouldn’t we toast and celebrate for Brother Wanguan?”
Jiang Yi knew that this matter couldn’t be hurried either, and it would depend on Qian Wanguan’s performance in the future. He laughed heartily and stood up. “Brother Wushuang and Yun Fei’s return is naturally a cause for a celebration. We will not stop today until we are drunk!”
Feng Luan, Qing Yu, and Yun Fei looked at each other with concern. Qian Wanguan’s capability might be able to obtain the approval from Situ Ao and the others, but it would be very difficult for him to win the heart of Situ Yinian, right? Why was this fatty so wretched-looking…?
