"Your Majesty the Emperor, what Mr. Taiwei said is misleading the country. Now our Eastern Empire has reached a very important time. Assuming that we waste a few days here, according to the news we have received, this order

The people of the Fox family have already begun to retreat. If they strengthen their defenses, we will have to spend hundreds of millions of troops to clear them out. At that time, the strength of the entire empire will decline. At that time, we will not

We are the most powerful country in the entire continent. The relationship between the Cao Family Trading Company and us is not good. The relationship between the three major empires and us is also not good. If they unite at that time, what ability do we have to resist them? So

Now we must go through this level properly, agree to all the requirements of the Cao Family Trading Company, and kill the people of the Linghu family first. It will be much easier for us to handle the remaining people of the Cao Family Trading Company. If they can grow old

If they are honest, we can give them a way to survive, but if they are not honest, we can pull them up in minutes." The two adults were not willing to be outdone, and they both thought about themselves.

You can influence the emperor's thoughts, and in that case you will be the number one in the military.

"That's enough, stop talking. I will think about this problem carefully and order the whole army to stop first, retreat slowly, and bring back all the corpses of our soldiers. I need two

An hour's time." His Majesty the Emperor already knew what they meant, and it would be a waste of time to listen to them any longer. He knew what they were talking about a long time ago, and there was no need for them to be there one by one.

Hu Chen has been here for a long time. All he needs is to think about which step to take. The ministers below can't speak. They all know that this is the time for His Majesty the Emperor to make a decision, so they all hurriedly resigned.

, if you agree with this, if it succeeds, it has nothing to do with you. It is all the decision of His Majesty the Emperor. If it fails, you can agree with this in the first place, but then there will be a big problem.

, even if we don't arrest you by then, there will definitely be no good results.

Seeing that the army on the opposite side began to retreat, Li Cong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Oh my god, these guys have been working so hard for more than ten hours. The soldiers are almost exhausted. Although inside the city

There are a lot of troops, but the time just now was not a rotation time. Once the enemy seizes this favorable opportunity, they may be the ones who suffer. Each of them is also very scared. The city wall is a symbol in their hearts.

If the city wall they relied on was gone, their confidence would be gone. Seeing the enemy retreating like that, they seemed to have collapsed. Not only the soldiers, but also the craftsmen were frightened.

We sat down directly, and everyone felt as if they had been reborn.

"Haha, thank you for your help. This war is supposed to be a military matter, but you have performed very well. I have asked someone to find out. Normally, it costs 60 cents for you to do such a day's work.

Yes, it’s 300 cents per person today. If something like this happens again in the future, we will definitely give it to you at this price. If you are injured, we will all take care of you, not just you, but also your family members.

It’s the same. We will take care of their food and drink until you are able to work. If you unfortunately lose your life here, your family will receive 200 taels of silver and 30 acres of land.

All this is given to you by the Linghu family, don't worry." Li Cong looked at these craftsmen and said, anyway, young master Linghu left a lot of money when he left, and that guy also knew that in

Talking with words is of no use on the battlefield. Money can sometimes yield unexpected results, and Li Cong put it to use now.

"Thank you, Mr. Cao...Thank you, Mr. Cao..." After hearing Li Cong's words, the craftsmen quickly knelt down and kowtowed. In the past, they had paid several days' work, and they didn't expect that they could still do it.

Earning so much money, in the past, craftsmen like them could be said to have the lowest income. This place is similar to that in ancient China. None of these craftsmen had a high social status. And they all

Sons inherit their father's business. It is impossible to turn over. But it is good that Li Cong gave them such a result. If he really died, he would be given twenty acres of land here.

Yes, this is not a low price. My sons can be considered farmers. Although they are still at the bottom of society, they are no longer craftsmen. This is very good news for my entire family.

"Master Cao, isn't this a little strange? If they continue to attack, we won't be able to hold on. The imperial court is not afraid of so many people dying. We all know the emperor. Back then,

When he was still the prince, he often captured thousands of death row prisoners for him to practice martial arts. Why would he care about the life and death of these people?" Zheng Er on the side said with some worry, even if the enemy is fierce, but the methods they use are all unknown to us.

We know that, but now they have retreated. They must be thinking of other ways. We don't know those ways, so we are a little anxious.

"Haha, Zheng Er, wars in this world are generally like this. If there is hope of victory, they will definitely not retreat. But now that they have retreated, it means that they do not want to continue to attack. So

For them, the loss is too great. If it were a prince, he would definitely be able to do it, but if it were an emperor, he would not be able to do it. He has to worry about his own reputation. A person with a bad reputation

How can the emperor become the king of the world? If I am not wrong, they will either besiege us or send envoys over. I guess they will not do that if we besiege us. After all, our south is still

Those who can get out, there is no siege, this peace negotiation should be what they want." Li Cong said with a smile, this guy can't say that he understands everything in this world, but the matter in front of him is still no problem.

Negotiate peace? Zheng Er's eyes immediately changed expression. For him, it is better to continue fighting like this. At least now Li Cong and the Linghu family are together. If there is a peace negotiation, will Li Cong

Sacrifice the interests of the Linghu family in exchange for the interests of the Cao family business. After all, Li Cong is here to help. The Linghu family has no obligation. They cannot sacrifice their own interests, and they will definitely have some of their own.

I'm thinking, if this is the case, should we continue to listen to this guy? At the beginning, the young master said that he would help us defend the city and we would listen to him, but if he betrayed us, we would also listen to him? Wouldn't that be a fool?

, should I talk to the young master about this matter now, but Zheng Er is also a smart man, and he soon understood what was going on. Li Cong told him this deliberately, if Li Cong really had second thoughts

If he did, he would definitely not tell himself. It is not that simple to figure out this matter with his own ability. Since he told himself, he definitely did not want to negotiate a peace with the royal family of the Eastern Empire alone, and

Now the Linghu family has begun to retreat, and everything is going on in an orderly manner. He doesn't know much information about the Linghu family, and he can't betray anything.

"Haha, Zheng Er, it seems that you are really good to your family. If I had subordinates like you, I could safely hand over such an important city to an outsider." Li Cong looked at Zheng Er.

With one glance, Zheng Er felt as if he were naked in front of this person. He really thought that he had no secrets. It was really scary to have such a person looking at him.

"What are you saying, Mr. Cao? Our young master regards Mr. Cao as his best friend. He has always told us that Mr. Cao is the most powerful person in the world. We must not let us go against your wishes.

"Yes." This guy's words were also impeccable, but no matter how you spoke, the look in your eyes just now gave you away.

"Did he really say this? Forget it, there's no point in saying that anymore. Just rest assured. I have no foundation in the Eastern Empire. How could I not understand the meaning of the Eastern Empire's royal family? They must want to use something.

He terminated our cooperative relationship. Now he is powerful. Neither of us has the ability to fight against him alone. If we separate, we may both be defeated. I will not do such a visionless thing.

We will do it. No matter what they say later, we will just accept it first. As long as they can afford to wait for this time, everything is easy to say. We still need six days. That's enough. Things like credibility don't matter.

"Li Cong said with a smile, and Zheng Er also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It is indeed like this, what they need is time, as long as it takes four days, they can quickly complete the retreat, and then no matter what

The empire is no longer afraid of anything. It has returned to its own territory. If you want to attack, you are still very naive.

What Li Cong predicted was indeed true. In just three hours, the special envoy from the Eastern Empire had already arrived at the city. The envoy carrying a white flag was similar to the world Li Cong was in. I really miss the white flag.

This thing is common throughout the universe. The two countries are fighting without fighting. This is a way Li Cong told these people. These people have learned another very good saying from Li Cong today, one by one.

I was also very excited. Originally, they were all going to fail, let alone negotiating. Whether they could survive was just a luxury hope. I really didn’t expect that something like this would happen, and they would actually come to sue for peace.

, and the one who came was the third prince of His Majesty the Emperor. This guy was considered a great figure in the Eastern Empire. Except that he was not the prince and did not sit on the prince's seat, other things were similar to those of the prince. He was the most powerful among the princes.

That kind of thing.

When Li Cong saw this guy for the first time, he knew that this kid was definitely not someone who was easy to deal with. However, Li Cong didn't make things difficult for him. He only had the upper hand on the surface. If the emperor of the Eastern Empire really

If he was acting recklessly, he might not be able to withstand it, so he just managed to survive yesterday.

"Let me introduce myself. I am the third prince of the Eastern Empire. I have heard about Lord Cao's name for a long time. When I saw him recently, it was indeed well-deserved. Although I am not a soldier, I still felt a little uncomfortable when I was asked to come in with a white flag. Here

After all, it is still the territory of our Eastern Empire." This guy said with a smile. Although he said this with a smile, his face was still a little unhappy, and yes, this matter would be unhappy for anyone.

, Originally, he was on the same level as the prince. After this incident, it will be regarded as a stain. Of course, if the negotiation with Li Cong can be successful, this boy will have absolute credit. He will pull the prince back when he returns.

It is possible to come down, and the risks and rewards coexist.

"Your Highness, Third Prince, please sit down. I don't understand what you want to do here now. You also know that we are all in a state of war now. If this misunderstands others, it will not be good."

." Li Cong said with a smile, Li Cong doesn't care about this matter right now. If you want to come to negotiate, hurry up. We don't want to talk nonsense with you about other things. If you have that time, go back and talk to me slowly.

That's it, we all have our own things to do now.

"It's very simple. In fact, you have your own goals now. Why should you cooperate with the Linghu family? Wouldn't it be better to cooperate with our Eastern Empire royal family? What they can give you, we can give you the same, even

More, Mr. Cao is a businessman. Shouldn't a businessman pursue the maximum profit? We have the maximum profit here. If possible, I hope we can discuss it." This guy has also heard of it.

There were some rumors about Cao Ke. Knowing that this guy was unwilling to talk much, I went straight to the topic.

"Haha, indeed, what you said is right. I am a businessman, and I pursue maximum profits, but I am also a businessman with a conscience. I have principles for my own behavior, and I will not betray my

My friend, Master Linghu is my friend. I can’t betray him. He has put the fate of the entire family on me. It’s impossible for me to do anything excessive to this. I hope you can understand.

If nothing happens, I think our negotiation should be over." After Li Cong said that, he wanted to go out. He and I were still going around in circles, and I didn't even look at what kind of role you were. Even if you and I were here.

You have to be careful, kid, but you still need a lot of heat.

There was a trace of dissatisfaction in the eyes of the third prince. This guy was already a little angry, but now he was under someone else's roof, but he couldn't do anything excessive. If he really angered the person in front of him, he would probably be the first to do so.

The only person who doesn't let him go is his father. When he came, his father made it very clear that no matter what this guy wants, he must satisfy his ideas, otherwise we will all be finished. What will happen if the nest is overturned?

He understands the truth that there is a perfect egg. Although the competition between the princes is very fierce now, it is all internal conflicts. If His Majesty the Emperor's position is unstable because of this incident, none of them will

He's not even a prince anymore, so what's the use of that one? These people all think very long-term. When he came, the other princes also discussed with him for a while. They thought

He must get through this difficulty now, otherwise he will lose his status as a prince, and his ability will become incompetent. The third prince quickly adjusted his emotions and negotiated with Li Cong with such emotions.
