The meat in the pot is so big, but some people want to eat it all.
Not only does he want to eat meat, but he doesn't even want to give the soup to others. This is how the Great Sage She Yi feels right now!
Jiange's profits from the sale of weapons have long been much higher than those of the Mu clan. If we set another standard, over time, the weapons refined by the Mu Dynasty may not be sold at all!
"There's no way I can get this bill passed. It's okay to set standards, but they must be based on the Mu Dynasty's standards."
The Great Sage She Yi said coldly and resolutely.
"You don't have the final say on this matter. Just follow the rules of the Taoist court."
Yan Shiliu smiled and signaled to Jingsheng.
Jingsheng cleared his throat and said to the representatives of all parties present: "I believe you all already understand the content of the motion, so now we respect Jiange's request and vote on whether to pass the motion."
"According to the nature of this motion, the voting adopts the principle of majority rule. In addition to the number of people in favor must be higher than the number of people opposed, the number of abstentions cannot be more than a quarter."
After Jingsheng explained the rules, he began to vote.
If you agree, raise your left hand; if you disagree, raise your right hand; if you abstain, just sit still.
Yan Liuliu of Jiange took the lead in raising his left hand, as if it had been discussed earlier, and in unison, representatives of multiple forces also raised their left hands.
All of a sudden, the number of votes in favor reached thirteen!
The Great Sage She Yi snorted coldly and raised his right hand. Following him closely was the leader of the Jade Clan.
The Jade Clan has long been dependent on the Mu Clan, not to mention that weapon refining and related industries are also the main source of income for the Jade Clan, and they absolutely do not want to be tightly controlled by Jiange.
Liu Sheng's expression was dull, and his eyes seemed to glance at the Jade Clan leader casually, but in fact he was looking at Gu Chen next to him.
Then, he also raised his right hand.
The Holy Land of Qingliu is within the borders of the Jade Dynasty, and there are only tiger and wolf neighbors like the herdsmen nearby. How can it be easily offended?
Scattered here and there, four more people raised their right hands.
The number of objections reached seven, which was far lower than the thirteen votes for approval. The face of the Great Sage She Yi suddenly became ugly.
However, Yan Liuliu was not too happy, looking at the remaining forces that did not express their stance.
"Don't you raise your hands? Do you want to abstain?" he urged.
Together with Ye You Daozu, a total of seventeen people have not made any move. If they all choose to abstain, then even if Jiange wins the vote, the motion will not be passed and implemented.
Before proposing the motion, Jiange actually negotiated with many forces. Some forces clearly supported it, and some were ambiguous. But after counting the number of people, Yan Shiliu believed that the possibility of passing it was still relatively high.
The Mu Dynasty was very aggressive and had offended many forces. He believed that most people would be willing to let them swallow a soft nail.
"This motion has no interest in our Dawn God Clan, so we abstain from voting."
Sheng Tuo responded, and several forces that had always been aligned with the Dawn Clan also nodded in agreement.
Yan Shiliu cursed in his heart. During the private discussion before, Patriarch Sheng treated each other with a smile, but neither agreed nor refused. He knew that he was probably choosing neutrality again.
This is the golden mean that the Dawn God Clan has long adhered to. Yan Shiliu had already expected it and looked expectantly at the others, especially Shi Zihou, the leader of the Dragon Taming Sect.
The relationship between the Dragon Taming Sect and the Mu Dynasty is also not good, and their influence is very strong. If they choose to support Jiange, it will have a good effect on other wavering people.
Yan Shiliu was relatively confident in Shi Zihou's choice. The so-called enemy of his enemy was his friend, and the relationship between the Dragon Taming Sect and Jiange was much better.
"We also abstained."
The next moment, unexpectedly, Sect Master Shi also abstained from voting. Yan Liuliu's expression suddenly froze and he was in a very bad mood!
Shi Zihou pretended not to see Yan Liuliu's expression and laughed at him for being too naive.
Yes, the relationship between the Dragon Taming Sect and the herdsmen is not good, but from the overall perspective, the Dragon Taming Sect does not want Jiange to completely monopolize the weapon refining industry.
The Dragon Taming Sect's own spiritual beast mount business is almost the only one in Second Mountain and Sea. It is very clear that Ruo Jiange also has the absolute say in the weapon refining industry, which is definitely not a good thing for others.
Two families can only benefit by competing with others. The final result of a dominant family is that the weapons sold by Jiange will become more and more expensive, and their strength and ambition will become more and more expanded!
It was obvious that it was not just the Dragon Taming Sect who understood this truth. Soon other people also expressed their opinions and chose to abstain.
With more than ten people abstaining from voting, more than a quarter of the total seats at the meeting, the motion can only be temporarily shelved.
Yan Shiliu was extremely disappointed for a moment and had no intention of looking at the people who had not expressed their opinions yet.
The Great Sage She Yi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that all parties were quite smart.
"The Chen clan agrees with the proposal proposed by Jiange."
Suddenly, a dull voice sounded, and Gu Chen raised his left hand.
"The same is true for the Pei Dynasty."
The great prophet echoed Gu Chen and also raised his hand.
The two of them were the last to express their stance among the participating forces. The results have already come out and the bill is destined to be shelved. However, they still expressed their support for Jiange. Isn't this intentional to offend the herdsmen?
The bosses of many forces looked at Gu Chen with strange expressions, thoughtfully.
It is obvious that Luomen and the Chen clan are of the same spirit, and the decision of the great prophet of Luomen follows Chen Yunfei.
Chen Yunfei, the new leader of the Chen Clan, cut off Li Tian's arm just the day before yesterday, and today he deliberately went against the Mu Clan. Could it be that the Chen Clan has become so confident that they no longer worry about the retaliation of the Herd Clan?
Or, since you have offended the herdsmen anyway, you should simply surrender to Jiange in exchange for their protection?
It's just that the Chen clan's territory is not adjacent to the Jian Dynasty. If the herders really want to destroy the Chen clan, can the distant water of Jiange save the nearby fire?
"Kid..."
The happy mood that the Great Sage She Yi had just become disappeared. The former follower of the Chen clan dared to vote against the Mu clan. This was a slap in the face even more than the day before yesterday!
Has the Mu Dynasty declined?
Even the little Chen clan can't control it!
Yan Shiliu's eyes lit up slightly, Chen Clan and Luo Men, these are two tickets!
Although the bill has been temporarily shelved, it can always be proposed again. With the support of the Chen family and Luo Men, the chance of winning next time will be much greater!
When the Chen Clan and the Mu Clan were at odds with each other before, Yan Shiliu felt that the Chen Clan was just forced to have no choice but to rationally do not want to go against the Mu Clan.
However, right now, their new patriarch was so arrogant that he couldn't help but think deeply!
Did the Chen clan become so powerful because they had other sources of support?
Initially, all the forces had not thought about this issue in detail, but now, with hindsight, a few forces began to make speculations in their minds.
With two votes from the Chen clan and the Luomen clan, their voice is not small, and all forces have really taken it seriously!
No one wants their bill to fail at a critical moment just because of these two votes!
The Painting Saint was hit the hardest, and he racked his brains to win the support of all forces for his proposal for the Alchemy Holy Land.
But he actually lost these two votes for a little bit of goodwill from the Dragon Taming Sect!
You must know that if the Chen family had not caused trouble before, the two families had never had any grievances, and the bill did not endanger the interests of the Chen family, they would have been very likely to support it!
