Old Ancestor Shang's Excitement
Although Old Ancestor Shang agreed on the surface, he was a living fossil who had lived for countless years. He was very tactful. Before he fully understood the situation, he would leave some leeway for himself to speak.
Qin Xiao also knew some of Old Ancestor Shang's thoughts. This was understandable.
Although Qin Xiao was the ambassador of the Hidden Dragon Territory, he could be considered the parent official of the Hidden Dragon Territory. However, when it came to their own interests, the overlords below would naturally have their own thoughts.
To build a new city for the Nine Continents City was an incomparably huge project. The investment in all aspects was incomparably huge.
Therefore, Old Ancestor Shang could not figure out Qin Xiao's intention. Did he want the Shang Clan to do it for him? If that was the case, then the Shang Clan would have to spend countless years of accumulation to build the new city.
This was a matter of life and death. Naturally, Old Ancestor Shang would not agree so easily.
"Old Ancestor Shang, don't think too much. I have no intention of asking you to pay the price for me. Although this trip requires Old Ancestor Shang's help, I will not ask for your help for free. "Qin Xiao did not beat around the bush and directly said.
Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Old Ancestor Shang was slightly surprised.
He had thought that if Qin Xiao's request was not too excessive, he would definitely agree to it.
Not to mention that the Shang Clan could not afford to offend Qin Xiao, if he could use this opportunity to befriend Qin Xiao, it might not be a bad thing.
If he wanted to befriend a big shot, he would not hesitate to pay a small price.
With Qin Xiao's current brilliance, who knew how many big shots in the entire God Realm would want to befriend Qin Xiao. Old Ancestor Shang should secretly rejoice that the Shang Clan was given this opportunity.
Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Old Ancestor Shang was even more relieved. It seemed that Qin Xiao's character was indeed as good as the rumors said. He was indeed very good. At least for now, the image was still incomparably glorious.
Qin Xiao explained some of his ideas to Old Ancestor Shang. After Old Ancestor Shang listened carefully, he put forward some constructive suggestions, which made Qin Xiao praise him again and again.
Old Ancestor Shang was indeed a figure who had created a huge business empire. He was very experienced in this aspect.
After the two of them talked for a while, Qin Xiao said with a serious face, "Old Ancestor Shang, I have always been a straightforward person, and I don't beat around the bush. "That's the general situation. After the new city is built, I will move most of the people from Nine States City over and start the Nine States Business Alliance. The Shang Dynasty of the Nine Continents is a huge alliance. With the Nine Continents City as the leader, and with Old Ancestor Shang as the backbone, we will maximize the benefits and develop together. "
"With the current influence of Nine States City, it is completely possible to expand the Nine States Business Alliance's trade route to the entire Desolate Land. It might even be possible to extend it to the entire God Realm."
"Of course, if we want to achieve such prosperity with the strength of Nine States City alone, the road is too long. Moreover, with the current situation of Nine States City, we really don't have the energy to do so many things. "
"So, it's up to you, Old Ancestor Shang."
After hearing Qin Xiao's words, Old Ancestor Shang felt a burst of joy in his heart. He couldn't help but reveal a few smiles on his face and said, "Your Highness Qin Xiao, this old man truly admires and respects you even more."
"Qin Xiao, Hall of Qin, you have given me such generous conditions, I have no reason to refuse. Although our Shang Clan is indeed good on the trade route, it's only good in the small Hidden Dragon Territory. Our trade route can't go out of the Hidden Dragon Territory. If we want to reach out to other territories, the power we have to face is too great. It's not something our Shang Clan can resist. "
"So, no matter how much our Shang Clan grows, we have already reached the peak. There's no room for improvement. And this is also something I've always regretted. "
"But if our Shang Clan joins the Nine States Business Alliance led by Your Highness Qin Xiao, then this obstacle can be broken. I believe that in the Desolate Land, or even the entire God's Office, there are not many people who would dare to openly provoke Your Highness Qin Xiao, right? Moreover, you're only using some trade routes, so you won't infringe on the interests of other powers too much. "
Qin Xiao nodded. Since he wanted to establish the Nine States Business Alliance, Qin Xiao naturally thought of this situation.
As long as his side played their part, if other powers wanted to compete for something, then Qin Xiao naturally wouldn't be polite.
If they dared to provoke him, then they definitely wouldn't have a good ending.
With his current prestige, he believed that there weren't many people who didn't know their place.
Of course, the development of the Nine States Business Alliance wouldn't be so fast. It would definitely have to be done step by step.
For the time being, it was just an idea. Not to mention the Nine States Business Alliance, just the construction of the new city alone would take some time.
This was a long-term development goal, and for the time being, it was also Qin Xiao's next step for the Nine States City.
After a moment of joy, Old Ancestor Shang said, "Your Highness Qin Xiao, if you really want to establish the Nine States Business Alliance, then we might not be enough. Why don't we invite a few more powerful powers to join us? This way, it's almost equivalent to tying the entire Hidden Dragon Territory together. "
"In this way, it can truly be called a big alliance, and it will be very powerful to the outside world."
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "Then in your opinion, which other powers should we invite to join us?"
Old Ancestor Shang said, "In our Hidden Dragon Territory, other than my Shang family, there are also the Qianhe Dynasty, the Temple of All Gods, and the Sword King Sect."
"And it just so happens that these four powers are all around the new city that Your Highness Qin Xiao has temporarily chosen. It's like they are guarding the four sides of the new city."
"Once we establish an alliance in the future, it's basically equivalent to joining together."
"Haha!" Qin Xiao laughed, "Old Ancestor Shang, we really thought of the same thing. In fact, I think so too. However, I came to you first. It seems that great minds think alike. "
Old Ancestor Shang also laughed, "Of course great minds think alike, hahaha. If that's the case, then I'll immediately call the Qianhe Dynasty's King, the Temple of All Gods, and the Sword King Sect's Master over. I haven't seen these three old guys in a long time. I believe that they will be very interested in cooperating with Your Highness Qin Xiao. "
"Speaking of which, I actually had the idea of forming an alliance a long time ago, and I've also talked to them. However, my personal appeal is not enough, and there are many aspects that we can't agree on at all. Moreover, even if we form an alliance, it will be difficult for us to leave the Hidden Dragon Territory. Therefore, after a few discussions, we stopped being acquaintances. "
"This time, with Your Highness Qin Xiao taking charge of the overall situation, I believe that the situation will be different."
Qin Xiao said, "Okay, then Old Ancestor Shang, I'll have to trouble you with this matter."
"Haha, it's a small matter. I've already informed the three of them. They know that Your Highness Qin Xiao is a guest of my Shang family, but they all scolded me for not informing them earlier. They all rushed over and should be here in a while. It seems that Your Highness Qin Xiao still has more face. Otherwise, if I invite them, they won't pay attention to me. "Old Ancestor Shang said.
Qin Xiao smiled. He did have more face now, there was no doubt about this.
There were countless people who wanted to curry favor with him.
Sure enough, the first to arrive was the Lord of Qian He Country. Compared to the previous Lord of Qian He Country in a dragon robe, he looked very imposing and luxurious, as if he was the ruler of the world.
The Lord of Qian He Country was one of the strongest people in the Hidden Dragon Territory.
Of course, in front of Qin Xiao, he was not worth mentioning.
Therefore, when the Lord of Qian He Country saw Qin Xiao, he was also very humble. He did not have the usual posture of a ruler. As soon as he arrived, he hurriedly bowed respectfully to Qin Xiao. "Qian He greets Your Highness Qin Xiao. We haven't seen each other for 200,000 years, Your Highness is far more impressive than before. Why didn't you inform me that Your Highness was coming? Otherwise, I would have come over long ago. "
Qin Xiao smiled and said, "I originally wanted you to walk around Qian He Country, so I didn't rush to call you over. However, Old Ancestor Shang felt that it was better to call all of you over for a gathering, so I might as well call all of you over. It also saves me the trouble of running around. "
"Cough, cough. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have come." The Lord of Qian He Country coughed twice and said, "Then I'll just wait in Qian He City for Your Highness Qin Xiao's arrival. I've suffered a great loss. Old Shang, Old Shang, you've cheated me badly. "
"Haha, I didn't cheat you. I'm helping you. Don't you know how to thank me first?" Old Ancestor Shang said.
The Lord of Qian He Country glared at Old Ancestor Shang and said angrily, "Bah, thank you my ass. Let's see if the Lord of All Gods and the Lord of Sword King Sect will scold you later. "
"Cough, Qian He, you should change your bad temper. There are still a few little fellows below. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others? You're already the ruler of a country, yet you're still swearing, "Old Ancestor Shang said.
The Lord of the Qianhe Nation rolled his eyes again. Wasn't he just pissed off?
Soon, the Lord of All Gods and the Lord of Sword King Sect arrived one after another.
Seeing the speed of these three people, Old Ancestor Shang also joked, "In the past, when I invited you guys over, I waited for half a day and still didn't see you guys. Now, with Your Highness Qin Xiao here, you guys are faster than ghosts. In just a short while, the three of you are all here. Your efficiency is extraordinarily high. "
"Isn't that so? Can you compare to Your Highness Qin Xiao?"
"That's right. When can you compare yourself to Your Highness Qin Xiao? Then, when you summon us in the future, we'll be just as quick."
"Haha, Old Shang, you have nothing to say, right? Look at your red face. Then continue to hold it in."
After being scolded by the Lord of Qian He Country and the other two, Old Ancestor Shang's face was indeed red.
What did he have to compare to Your Highness Qin Xiao? It was simply the difference between heaven and earth. There was no comparison at all.
Therefore, there was really no other way about this matter.
"Old Ancestor Shang, I'll have to trouble you to tell the Lord of Qian He Country and the other two about the specific situation," said Qin Xiao.
Old Ancestor Shang didn't dare to hesitate. He immediately nodded and told the Lord of Qian He Country and the other two about the situation that they had just agreed on.
After listening, the Lord of Qian He Country and the other two looked at each other. But immediately, the three of them showed a big smile on their faces. They patted Old Ancestor Shang's shoulder and said in unison, "Old Shang, you finally made us like you for once."
