The road from Shangjiang City to Jiading City has always been the envy of other cities, paved with polished and smooth bluestone, and then filled with fine sand to fill the gaps, and then roasted with fire magic. The road is 10 meters wide at its narrowest point, making it extremely sturdy and durable. The wagon pulling the cargo ran on it, and there was hardly much bump to be felt.

If you run fast and transport more, the goods will circulate quickly, and the money will naturally come.

However, except for the road from Shangjiang City to Jiading City, the road connecting other cities is in a state of disrepair, and after the last war, the road is even more dilapidated, and the transportation condition is very bad.

For example, Howard developed mineral resources during his time in Fengxian City, but Fengxian City was not close to the sea, and they needed to pass through Nanhui City of the Swamp Clan to transport the mine out by sea. The ore business is highly competitive and unprofitable, and the swampy terrain of Nanhui makes it very expensive and slow for the beasts to transport.

Other cities also have road problems.

They all want to build roads, but they don't have the money.

This time, Shangjiang City is willing to pay to help everyone build the road, which is definitely a great thing.

In addition, the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce is willing to sell goods, which is also a very good thing for some cities.

The ore business of the orcs is not only affected by the road, but also how to sell the ore in their hands at a good price is also a headache for them. The purchase price of ore varies from place to place, and the orcs cannot enjoy the low tax policy of the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce in the local area, so the ore is sold, and after paying taxes and paying some expenses such as ship fare, there is really not much money left.

If the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce is willing to be responsible for the link of ore sales, the beast clans in Fengxian City only need to give the ore to the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce to make money, which is much more than selling it themselves. In this way, Fengxian City does not need to think about the problem of whether the ore can be mined and sold, and can spend all its energy on the development and mining of the mine, and even the semi-finished processing of minerals to make more money.

In short, the support policies mentioned by Da Liang, combined with the market owned by the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce, can not only allow the cities to ensure income during drought and flood, but also let the city owners see a piece of money.

I was finally able to drink soup behind Shangjiang City and Jiading City.

However, compared to the simple-minded orcs and swamps, Duke Joshua could see Da Liang's intentions.

When the roads are built, they can be used not only to transport goods, but also to transport troops. His Chongming City has always been in a semi-independent state because it hangs alone on the sea. If you want to rebel, you will enter the land through Baoshan City, want to defend, and take the fleet to the mouth of the Yangtze River, cooperate with the shore fortifications, and don't want to go ashore with several times the number of troops.

But after this sea-crossing bridge was built, when Shangjiang City wanted to attack Chongming City, it only needed to let the Pudong fleet control the bridge, and the army of the human race could continue to attack Chongming Island.

Other cities will also expose themselves to the Terrans and the undead after the roads are built.

In addition, the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce took over the sales of goods in various cities, and it was even more of a drawdown.

When the cities hand over the sales link, it is equivalent to handing over their economic lifeline to the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce, after losing the independent economic system, the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce wants to pinch you how to pinch you, and the interests of the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce and Shangjiang City are highly consistent and inseparable.

Therefore, Shangjiangcheng will first complete the reunification economically in this way, and even if someone does the opposite, they will find themselves in financial constraints everywhere, and the cost of rebellion will increase significantly.

Of course, if there is no backlash, these two policies are very good things for all cities.

Rebel?

Joshua no longer had this mind, he was a complete defeat in the military and court struggles, and he was guarding an increasingly weak Chongming City with the title of Grand Duke, and the financial pressure had made him anxious, and his spirit was much older than before.

Looking at the city lords whose eyes were already bright, Joshua knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't change the outcome. In this struggle for power, the Terrans won the final victory, and Shangjiang City would have a level of control over the cities that had never been achieved before. Unless the business empire of the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce collapses, the seven sub-cities can only be attached to Shangjiang City.

And will the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce collapse?

Thinking about the Dragon Clan mission that arrived in Shangjiang, Da Liang had already planned everything.

"Good, good, good." Joshua couldn't help but applaud Da Liang, and said: "Count Da Liang is a nightmare for me, but it is a blessing for Shangjiang, I agree to build a sea-crossing bridge from Shangjiang City to Chongming City, and hand over all the sales of farm products on Chongming Island to the Shuntong Chamber of Commerce."

If Shangjiang City is willing to accept a part of the elven army, I am also willing to sell half of the Chongming City army to you, including 100,000 soldiers including the three-headed golden dragon and the six-headed green dragon. ”

Da Liang said to Joyce, "Can I buy this elven army at my own expense?" ”

Joshua's willingness to take the initiative to disarm shows that he has decided to completely surrender to Shangjiang City, which is definitely a major breakthrough for Joyce, the first king did not do it, and King Howard did not do it, and she did.

Although Joyce, who doesn't know much about economics, hasn't seen through why Joshua is so easily obedient, it must have something to do with what Da Liang just said. In fact, when Da Liang sprung up, the strong Joshua had been going downhill, and several rebounds were also suppressed by Da Liang.

Joyce was very happy, and the army in Shangjiang City was mainly Terran, and he rashly joined the army of a large number of elves, which required great changes to the command and logistics system.

Since Da Liang was willing to accept this elven army, Joyce directly agreed.

A huge army of elves was in the bag, which was an added surprise. Da Liang's Ruling Territory is developing very rapidly, but the size of the army needs to be slowly accumulated. Shu Xiao has spread out his stalls in the Heroic Spirit World, all kinds of tasks go hand in hand, the number of troops is really stretched, and he has complained to Da Liang many times that there are not enough soldiers.

But Da Liang didn't have a good way, his stall in the Realm of Death was bigger, and the army of the undead was not suitable for appearing in the Judgment Realm sequence on a large scale. Now Da Liang can only let Shu Xiao spend a lot of money to buy soldiers from players, but the market for middle and high-level soldiers is very hungry, and money can't buy them.

The 100,000 elven army has solved the big problem of ruling the lack of soldiers.

Xu Man's Cloud Territory is the territory of the elf clan, and the logistics support of this elf army is not a problem at all. Moreover, Joshua even sells the golden dragon and the green dragon at a clear price, what is the difference between this and picking up the ultimate creature for nothing for players? Moreover, this is the active army of Chongming City, and the combination of troops is very reasonable, including a large number of middle and high-level soldiers such as Pegasus Knights, Tree Spirits and Unicorns.

However, Da Liang must ensure that this royal council can smoothly push Joyce to the throne, if Joshua does not agree and rebels.

So...... The dead are all my brother's soldiers.
