"The Cheng Family will never do such a thing!" Governor Zhou replied.
"Governor Zhou, it's not that I don't trust the Cheng Family, but it's hard to explain things like this. Therefore, I feel that the conditions are unreasonable. I hope you can pass on the message to the Cheng Family, "Governor Bai pleaded.
Although the Cheng Family's conditions were a little too much, he did not want to give up just like that.
Cooperation would always go through all kinds of conflicts. Speaking of which, this was indeed a win-win cooperation for both parties. It was a good thing for both parties.
Even if there were some differences, they could still work things out through discussion.
Therefore, he still had high hopes for this cooperation. Naturally, he would not give up easily.
"In that case, Governor Bai, how many resources do you think you can offer to the Cheng Family?" Governor Zhou did not agree to Governor Bai's request right away.
Even if the Cheng Family's demands were too high, he still needed to know what Governor Bai's bottom line was.
"I feel that we can't base it on the number of missions we accept. That's too unreasonable!" Governor Bai said after some thought.
"Governor Bai, you should at least give me an answer. Otherwise, how am I going to discuss it with the Cheng Family?" Governor Zhou said.
"Since Governor Zhou wants me to speak, I'll share my thoughts. I feel that this collaboration is a win-win situation. Releasing missions for the Cheng Family through our White City Alliance will not only solve the problem of the Cheng Family being overburdened with missions.
At the same time, our White City Alliance will also promote the reputation of the Cheng Family. Although the Cheng Family is quite famous in the Cultivation World now.
However, that doesn't mean that everyone in the Cultivation World knows about the existence of the Cheng Family, or that the Cheng Family has an external mission that is open to the world.
I also know that the White City Alliance can't possibly let the world know about the Cheng Family. However, if the Cheng Family were to release the missions through the White City Alliance, it would definitely make the Cheng Family even more famous in the Cultivation World! "Governor Bai said.
"Continue!" Governor Zhou nodded.
"The Cheng Family's fame will increase, and our White City Alliance will attract a lot of people because of the Cheng Family's external missions.
Therefore, I believe that since this is mutually beneficial, our White City Alliance doesn't owe the Cheng Family anything, so we naturally don't need to provide them with resources.
However, if the Cheng Clan really thinks that our White City Alliance has taken advantage of them, then to show our sincerity in cooperating with the Cheng Clan, we are willing to provide 100 million low-grade spirit stones to the Cheng Clan every year.
City Lord Zhou, what do you think? "City Lord Bai asked.
Governor Bai was a smart man. He did not mention how many resources he would need from the start.
Instead, he suggested that cooperation was a win-win situation. Therefore, the two parties should be of equal status.
However, after hearing Governor Bai's words, he felt that the Cheng Family had gained an even greater advantage.
However, the White City Alliance took a step back and gave up 100 million low-grade spirit stones every year. This showed their sincerity and made people think that City Lord Bai was a good person.
However, Governor Zhou remained expressionless and Governor Bai could not figure out what he was thinking.
"Governor Bai, your words seem to make a lot of sense. However, you have to understand one thing first.
If the White City Alliance wants to benefit, you will need to borrow the reputation of the Cheng Family. On the other hand, the Cheng Family doesn't necessarily need to cooperate with the White City Alliance.
That's right, the Cheng Family is overpopulated and this has greatly affected the cities and mission halls.
However, this is enough to prove how attractive the Cheng Family's external missions are.
Even if the Cheng Family doesn't divert our population away, no matter how crowded the Cheng Family is, they will still swarm into the Cheng Family to snatch the missions!
City Lord Bai, do you agree with this? "City Lord Zhou asked with a smile.
"City Lord Zhou is right. However, if the Cheng Family doesn't divert their population away, even though there will still be many people who want to enter the Cheng Family's cities to take on missions, it will still negatively affect the Cheng Family. This is the truth!" City Lord Bai argued.
When he heard City Lord Zhou say that the Cheng Family's cities were overpopulated and had a huge impact on the Cheng Family, he felt quite upset.
Although the White City Alliance had not yet declined, they could clearly feel that their population was decreasing, especially in terms of the income of each city.
However, to the Cheng Family, the White City Alliance's population was a huge burden.
This kind of strong contrast really made people feel helpless in their hearts.
The Cheng Family probably did not wish for so many people to come to them, but they could not stop the people from taking on the external missions. As a result, a large number of people continued to swarm into the Cheng Family's cities.
He really could not do anything about this huge gap.
However, this was enough to prove that the Cheng Family's missions were indeed very attractive.
This was why he had come up with this idea to attract more people to the White City Alliance.
As long as the Cheng Family's missions were announced in the various cities of the White City Alliance, who knew how many people would be attracted to the White City Alliance.
If the White City Alliance was overcrowded like the Cheng Family's cities, he would not be worried at all. Instead, he would be overjoyed.
Therefore, he was rather looking forward to this collaboration. It might even make the White City Alliance even more prosperous than before.
According to his estimation, as long as the Cheng Family agreed to collaborate with him, the White City Alliance's cities would earn at least one billion annually.
If the cities were really overcrowded, the profits would be unimaginable. Billions would be a piece of cake, and even tens of billions wouldn't be a problem.
Therefore, even if the Cheng Family handed over 100 million annually, it would not be a problem.
"That's right. If there are too many people, it will indeed have some negative effects on the Cheng Family. However, you have to be clear that the Cheng Family isn't only looking for the White City Alliance to collaborate with.
I believe that as long as our Cheng Family releases the news, the number of cities that want to cooperate with our Cheng Family will be uncountable! "City Lord Zhou said with a smile.
Although this collaboration was indeed a win-win situation, the Cheng Family had the initiative.
Without the Cheng Family's consent, they would not be able to benefit from the Cheng Family.
Therefore, no matter which city was willing to collaborate with the Cheng Family, they would definitely earn a lot.
