They used their own breath to maintain the lives of these two eighth-level monsters. In fact, they were not in so much pain, but for the emperor's sake, they could only try their best to pretend that they were in pain.

Prince Yulin's side is probably the side with the heaviest losses. General Alan has been seriously injured. It is estimated that it will be impossible to recover in less than a year or two. One ninth-level warrior and four eighth-level warriors were lost. The magician

The union suffered the least damage, as the three magicians were only slightly injured. The spoils to be distributed were decided at the beginning, and were divided equally among the three families.

Li Cong asked one of his men who managed trade and the managers of the three families to go over and see the value of these things. The three families all had their own ideas. For example, what the Magician Guild wanted was the magic weapon. In addition, they

He has no other ideas, and Alanke's idea is also very realistic. What he wants is the Golden Silkworm Armor, and all the rest will be given to Li Cong? If the things on other ninth-level warriors and eighth-level warriors are better than ordinary people,

It seems to be very valuable, but Li Cong seems to have no intention of asking for it at all. The total of those things is only two-thirds of the Golden Silkworm Armor, so it seems that he has suffered a loss, such a loss.

They were not prepared to buy or sell Li Cong, and both of them had seen Li Cong's power, and they did not dare to express their inner thoughts. If they did, there would probably be a bloodbath immediately.

"I have an idea. My manager has already calculated everything here. It adds up to about 400 billion silver. Of course, these two treasures may be more expensive. How about this? I'll give them to you.

Each side has 150 billion in silver, how about I keep these things?" Li Cong said with a smile, his idea was just a casual talk. I believe they will not agree to this.

"I don't agree with what Mr. Cao said. Why don't we, the Magicians Guild, also come up with this silver? How about I give you both 160 billion silver?" said a magician, which means Li Cong is also a magician.

, if others had said such words, they would have fallen out with each other long ago. This is simply insulting. Except for Prince Yulin who cannot afford the money, the other two parties are very wealthy.

"Our Prince's Palace has suffered heavy losses this time. We want the Golden Silkworm Armor, and we will use 80 billion silver to compensate." Alan thought for a while and said, it was very fair for him to do this. There are only two important treasures.

For other people, no matter how much money they pay, it is unfair. Besides, they have suffered heavy losses. If they really take action, they may not be able to compensate others, and the ones who suffer the loss may still be theirs.

"Our Magician's Guild wants that magic weapon, and we will pay 150 billion silver as compensation." The price offered by the Magician's Guild is higher. In fact, Li Cong has already taken advantage of such a transaction, but Li Cong will not just do that.

given up.

"Haha, to be honest, I also want to get them. I have a lot of money. I can offer more money to make you give up, but I also know that your superiors will not give up so easily. Forget it, this is our first time working together.

, I won’t pursue anything, I will just follow your plan, but I still have one condition, that is, I want to enter the shipping of the Red River and the warehousing on both sides of the river, and you both need to assist me, unconditionally." Li Congxiao.

Then he said, what he said before was quite good, but what he said next made these people a little nervous. The power of Cao's firm is already developing. If it continues to develop, but if it doesn't agree now,

In a real fight, none of them would have the upper hand. Li Cong had a few level nine monsters unscathed.

"It sounds like you got a very good deal, it's just some trade rights." Li Cong continued.

"The Prince's Mansion has always been the best friend of the Cao Family Trading Company. With the convenience of the Red River, our Prince's Mansion can get you 6,000 boats. We can only work hard for the rest." Alanke said, this is already Prince Yulin's largest ship.

What the Prince of Yulin wanted the most was the golden silkworm armor. Big men would want that thing if they were afraid of death.

Of the hundreds of ships on the Red River, there are only 6,000 here. It can be said that there is nothing to gain. But if Li Cong installs a motor, the shipping speed will be ten times higher, and there will be tens of thousands of ships by then. This transaction is acceptable.

of.

"The Magician's Guild can provide 15,000 ships. You can operate wherever our power reaches, but there is one condition. You must pay a certain amount of money every year just like the merchants under our Magician Chamber of Commerce.

"The Magicians Guild would open up their territory. This was something Li never thought of, but he had to ask for the money.

"Then I want to know how much I need to pay you to open a store in a city?" Li Cong asked.

"Every store has its own differences, but a store in the county can earn at least 400 taels of silver per year." The magician said. In fact, the price offered by the magician's union is not high. Any food store can make tens of thousands of taels a year.

In terms of silver, the price is indeed not high. Li Cong nodded with satisfaction. The Magicians Guild opened a room for him in nearly forty provinces this time.

"Deal." The top management of the three parties has finally reached an agreement. This time, the division of the spoils ended with Li Cong losing money but actually benefiting from it. The other two parties also got what they wanted. It can be said that it was very successful.

Now, the magicians are the fastest. Alan has left all the remaining matters to Li Cong. He doesn't want to continue to take care of things here. He wants to go back and report to His Highness the Prince as soon as possible.

thing. Then I have to find a place to have a good rest.

When Li Cong was about to leave, he suddenly felt something unusual in the space. This is a feeling that only a space magician can have. Li Cong slowly squatted down. He felt that things here were a bit unusual. With one look, several

The monsters had already looked around. Originally, they were going to eat these dead people. This was the best way to deal with it, but if the emperor had something to do, he could only honestly go to the side to take up guard duties.

Li Cong felt that the unstable space fluctuations came from Tuoba Hongye over there. This guy's space ring had been taken down, and he had nothing but a billion in silver. This guy was a member of the family.

It is already very powerful for a generation to have such assets. Li Cong is a very careful person. He felt that this matter was not that simple. He slowly sat next to this guy and began to carefully observe and feel the things about this guy.

something.

Suddenly Li Cong felt that it was this guy's bracelet. In this world, men can also bring some decorative things. Li Cong could feel that this guy's bracelet was a space artifact and could create space.

The person who makes the artifact is much higher than the average person who can make the space ring. Because Tuoba Hongye is already dead, it is easy for Li Cong to claim the owner of this space artifact, and he can easily see it.

See what's inside.

My God, no wonder no space artifacts were found on Tuoba Zhiqiu's body. That guy was stripped naked. It would be a very bad thing to treat a ninth-level strongman like this, but who called this guy

He is not an ordinary person. He must not let this guy go. Now he understands that all this guy's things belong to Tuoba Hongye. It seems that Tuoba Hongye himself doesn't know about this. Both of them are

It's the same whether they are together or on whomever they are placed on.

Haha, compared to everything here, those just now are nothing. Hundreds of billions of things are nothing. Just looking at this thousands of cubic meters of space storage, you will know how valuable the things in it are. Make a fortune.

Yes, haha.

No one knows how much Li Cong paid, but many people know that before Dai Lin applied for an expansion fund of about 24 billion silver for Li Cong, Li Cong said that it was transferred from the Western Empire, but after leaving, Li Cong

He took out a large amount of banknotes. According to Dai Lin's later recollection, this was a small part, an absolute small part. It was even more money than the last time he bought half of the Tuoba clan. Many people also

Those who are speculating on this matter, after all, Tuoba Zhiqiu is a senior member of the Tuoba family, and his assets may belong to the Tuoba family. It is said that there are several magic weapons, but they are not as good as the one he uses.

It can be said that Tuoba's operation was a failure. Shopkeeper Ma definitely took the greatest credit in this matter. Li Cong specially rewarded him with a reward of one hundred thousand taels of silver and asked Shopkeeper Ma to take charge of the surrounding areas.

All the business in Gejun City is worth all the hard work for Shopkeeper Ma, and he has gained what he deserves.

The impact of this matter was effectively reduced by all three families. After all, such a matter can be bullied by more. Originally, Prince Yulin wanted to tell the court about this matter, but Li Cong's suggestion made him know what to do.

It shouldn't be announced in such a high-profile manner now. If these people disappear, the Tuoba clan will definitely not let it go. There will definitely be more powerful people coming by then. At that time, the Cao family will send the news.

Then the three families worked together to kill them again. This kind of wealth can be made quickly. When King Lear organized such a large team to kill them once in the Warcraft Mountains, wasn't it just to get a small amount of profit? Now they dispatched dozens of them.

It's great that people can achieve such results.

Li Cong also met Prince Yulin in person because of this opportunity. The place they agreed on was in the provincial capital of ***, a large city in the south. This can be said to be Prince Yulin's new stronghold. Prince Yulin was there because of the counterinsurgency.

The southern part has acquired its own territory, which can be said to be Prince Yulin's own territory. Although there is no news from above, Li Cong's intelligence department already has news. The city lord and second-in-command are both Prince Yulin's people.

This is already settled.

Prince Yulin also gave a lot of gifts for this. Even though this guy is a prince, he has nothing in the capital except the emperor's love. Others will not think too much about this guy. After all, now

The emperor is already very old. His relationship with several princes is not very good. No matter which of these princes becomes emperor, his own life will definitely not be so easy. This is obvious

.

Prince Yulin also knew what kind of person he was. As long as Li Cong was a magician, he would not put on any airs for Li Cong. Moreover, Li Cong was also the earl and prince-consort of the Northern Empire. Any title would

It was enough to meet him. Naturally, this ordinary earl was not qualified to meet Prince Yulin, but Li Cong was definitely not an ordinary earl.

When Prince Yulin saw Li Cong coming in, he quickly strode over. He knew very clearly what attitude he had towards certain people, otherwise his position as prince would not be so secure.

"Sir Sir Alex has such a heroic face, and he looks really friendly. We may have never met each other before, but for some reason, when I saw Sir Alex, I felt that we must have met before.

Please come quickly." Prince Yulin said after greeting Li Cong. No one in this room knew why this happened. Even if the prince wanted to give face, there was no need to give him so much face. In fact, why did Prince Yulin do this?

I understand it. There are not many days when I can be arrogant. I must find a new ally for myself during this period of time. Those people in the court must be of no use. They all know that they are a piece of fat.

, if the emperor is away, I am afraid that the first ones to attack him will be the princes. Each of those guys is very dissatisfied with him.

"Your Majesty, you are so kind. I have heard many people say that your Majesty is a polite and virtuous corporal. Now it seems that he is really well-deserved." Li Cong also just said some disgusting words that he could think of. Anyway, it doesn't cost money.

.

A good banquet has been prepared in the house. It is natural not to be rude to receive someone like Li Cong. Several of the chefs here have been saved by the palace for many years. It can be said that many of them are not available outside.

, Li Cong has treated his Wu Zang Temple well today. This palace cook is definitely something Li Cong has never seen before. He also has expensive things, but the skills of these cooks are not.

You can have it if you want it. The difference between aristocrats and nouveau riche is here. For the same thing, aristocrats can have many more programs than nouveau riche.

Li Cong is also very clear about the purpose of coming here today, which is to establish a strategic partnership with Prince Yulin. Prince Yulin currently controls a lot of areas, but Prince Yulin currently does not have the ability to control his own.

As power develops on its own land, a lot of vacuum areas appear, which requires Li Cong's help. Li Cong happens to be expanding on a large scale now, but he doesn't have that much territory. The two of them can

Hit it off instantly.

"Your Highness, here's what I think, bring the map." Li Cong said to Dai Lin behind him, and Dai Lin immediately opened the map. Although this plan was made by himself, Li Cong is qualified.

When talking to the prince, I can only talk to the eunuchs around the prince. As for other things, I can't get in the way.

"Your Highness, you now have 21 provinces under your control. I am going to invest 16.2 billion silver in these 21 provinces to establish my sales network within three to five months.

Starting next year, I will give His Highness the Prince 1.6 billion silver every year, which is one-tenth of their capital, as His Highness the Prince's remuneration. I wonder how His Highness the Prince feels about my proposal?" Li Cong said with a smile,

One-tenth of the return is quite a lot, but the value of these sales networks will at least increase several times after they are established. Prince Yulin is a fool himself and naturally he will not understand.

"Sir, you are so polite. How can you be so embarrassed? To be honest, I can share more than a billion dollars every year without doing anything. This is really too much. This is good. I heard that you are going to be on the Red River."

The conditions you gave for contracting ships are really generous. My people have also contacted you in the capital. At least there are several companies that want to contract for you. The number should be around 100,000 ships.

Yes, I will get all of this for you when the time comes." Prince Yulin said with a smile, he had no ability to take care of these places, but now there is no need to do anything, and 1.6 billion of silver is allocated every year, so

If you don't agree to the matter, you are really a fool, and those companies in the capital do have this intention. You can also be the second shopkeeper for a time. If Li Cong gives you 1,000 taels of silver, you only need to give it to those people.

For nobles, 800 taels of silver is enough, and deducting 20% ​​is definitely not a small amount.

"Then I'm very grateful to you, Your Majesty. In fact, if you are interested in things over there, you can come in and have fun with us. Business matters are like this. If Your Majesty enters the business world, I think he will definitely be a genius in the business world.

"Li Cong said with a smile. In fact, he was thinking that this idiot could get in. If he could get involved, he would be able to hang out under this guy's banner in the future. No matter what happens, it will belong to this guy.
