Chapter 904 Alliance Negotiation
The closed Songjiang City made it impossible for Da Liang to know what Abigail had done, and the players in the dungeon couldn't get into the circle of the black elves, so they couldn't get more information.

Da Liang had no choice but to temporarily put aside the out-of-control Songjiang City, and concentrate on promoting the alliance between Shangjiang and the Three Dragons.

Joyce is now the crown prince of Shangjiang City, and will hold an enthronement ceremony in the near future to officially become the master of the city.Therefore, Joyce is qualified to represent Shangjiang City State to discuss alliances with the three 15th-rank Dragon Clans.

Princess Ziling is the envoy of this dragon mission, and the Zilong clan is the main force of this dragon alliance. Her opinion will determine whether Shangjiang can get together with them.

As a quasi-ally of the Three Dragons, Da Liang is also a trusted minister of Crown Prince Joyce.During this period of investigation, he accompanied the Dragon Mission to the entire Shangjiang area.

Visit the Pudong Commercial Port and watch the merchant ships that are all over the place.Then, following the loading and unloading of the goods, I saw the Jiading City Market, and looked up at the jewel castle of the Marquess Stanley and the cargo ships shuttling in the Yangtze River.

Da Liang took them to the workshop in Jiangcheng to watch the production of war equipment and artillery; the Pudong fleet and the warships built in the shipyard.

Then came the elf plantation, the academic alchemy factory...

The entire city-state used various methods to show the prosperity of Shangjiang to the dragon missions, as well as its strong economic and military strength.

In the end, the Dragon Mission, Da Liang, and Joyce gathered in the Shangjiang Palace for the final negotiation.

Princess Ziling, who is dressed in a blue and white magic robe, is elegant and noble, and at the same time has a natural sense of superiority in front of the lower races in the main world.

Representatives from all parties sat around a round table, Princess Ziling first said: "Thank you Earl Daliang for accompanying us to visit Shangjiang City-State these days.

Just like what you described, Shangjiang City can be regarded as one of the most prosperous main cities in the main world. It is impossible to see the noisy streets in the magic forest.We have also seen the wealth and military power possessed by Shangjiang City. What you have can indeed make up for our shortcomings in many aspects and strengthen the strength of the alliance.

Here I want to confirm how much money and troops you can provide us if we agree to join the alliance. "

Joyce felt Zi Ling's contempt for Shangjiang City.She believes that in the alliance, Shangjiang City is the protected party, and as the leader of the alliance, Zilong should charge Shangjiang City protection fees.

This status was certainly not what Joyce wanted.

But without waiting for Joyce to speak, Da Liang said on the sidelines: "Princess Zilong, this is to inspect allies, not vassals. If you only look at the size of the land, the actual control area of ​​Shangjiang is much bigger than the magic forest, crystal veins, and vassals." The sulfur caverns are all bigger together.

Resources and funds are not comparable to the sum of the assets of the three dragon clans.

In addition, what is really valuable is the human resources owned by Shangjiang.Presumably everyone has seen that all cities in Shangjiang are overhauling roads. We can summon a road-building army composed of hundreds of thousands of laborers in a very short period of time, and we will be able to use the shortest time to convert the magic forest and crystal mines A defense system was built.

Shangjiang is not as good as the Three Dragons in terms of individual combat effectiveness, but in other aspects it is really far beyond.

We need dragons to protect our cities, and you need us to protect your homes.

This is a matter of mutual benefit, so I hope that in this negotiation, Princess Ziling can regard Shangjiang as an equal force with the Zilong clan. This is also the basis for our comprehensive cooperation in the future. "

Da Liang has the grace of saving the life of Princess Ziling, the grace of saving the family of Crystal Dragon, and is the master of the twin brother of the leader of the poisonous dragon.Therefore, his words are really important in the Three Dragons Alliance, not to mention that what others say is still reasonable.

The three dragons really have nothing but strong individual force.The land is small, and although there are resources, there is not enough labor to mine them, and the economy is basically zero.

It is true that if you want money but no money, you need people and no one, and you need resources, they are all buried in the ground.

There is a whole body of pride, but it can't be eaten.

Besides, Shangjiang is not weak, at least one supreme angel lives in the palace.Other cities in the main world may be richer and more powerful than Shangjiang City, but if there is no 16th-level hero to guard them, the wealth will belong to others when the war starts.

Therefore, just one holy Bella is enough to attract the attention of the three dragon clans to Shangjiang, coupled with the advantages of Shangjiang City.

The alliance is basically no suspense.

Since everyone will be in the same camp in the future, the relationship must not be too rigid.

After Da Liang smoothed the field, Princess Zi Ling also realized that her stance was a bit too high, and the sense of superiority that could not bring any benefits had to be compromised for survival.She turned and said: "I'm really sorry, Your Royal Highness Joyce, I am indeed a bit too self-centered. Zilong, Crystal Dragon and Poison Dragon all intend to invite Shangjiang to join our alliance, but because the magic forest and the crystal mine are facing This is a lot of pressure, so we urgently hope that Shangjiang City can give priority to helping us build a defense system.

I know that this requires a lot of funds and materials, but we can't afford these things, so I wonder if Shangjiang City can't support our construction first.We can also respond to Shang Jiang's request and give us what we can do in return. "

This is the atmosphere that alliance negotiations should have.

Joyce had already known from Da Liang what the three dragons urgently needed, and had made sufficient preparations for this meeting.She took out a construction plan and handed it to Princess Ziling, and then said: "Shangjiang City has prepared to spend 14 million gold coins as the first construction funds for the magic forest and crystal veins. It is mainly used to build basic resource collection points , first of all, to be self-sufficient in wood and stone, and to build a [-]-level main defensive fortress.

Including a series of defensive buildings such as castles, parapets, towers, turrets, and magic towers, as well as supporting war equipment and alchemy equipment, we, Shangjiang City, are also in charge.

Then we will expand the main defense fortress and radiate outwards to build a defense system, using the fortress control surface and the stronghold control line to create an overall defense network.

For the whole project, we expect to invest one billion gold coins in the early stage, which can initially complete the construction of this defense network, and we will add it later according to the actual situation.

In order for this defense system to be built quickly and function, Shangjiang will send 20 laborers and [-] troops to the Magic Forest.

We have paid for the military expenses of this army in advance, but in the future, we will need the magic forest and crystal mines to bear the maintenance costs of your respective garrisons. "

Princess Ziling wondered: "But we have no money to support the army."

Da Liang smiled from the side: "There is no money to make, and the Zilong clan's research on becoming a god also needs a lot of money and materials, and Shangjiang is not able to afford long-term financial expenditures without returns.

It's time for the purple dragons to learn how to make money. I have a business cooperation plan here, let's take a look together. "
