City Lord's Mansion, Council Chamber.

Ye Xuan, Fang Lance Xiao, and the twelve city lords of Donglu Prefecture sat at the long table, examining each other's expressions, each with their own thoughts in their hearts.

After knowing that Liuyun City had the Long Yuan Army as a backer, Han Chengxin and the others just wanted to stop the canal from being dug and didn't want to make a feud with Liuyun City.

Only Jiang Juedian's eyes were full of resentment, but it was not easy to attack at this time.

Han Chengxin glanced at the crowd and said, "Our twelve city lords are here just for one thing, as long as Liuyun City stops the canal project, we will leave immediately, and we will not embarrass Liuyun City." ”

Another city lord said: "That's true, as long as the excavation of the canal is stopped, not only will we not be embarrassed by the flow of cloud city. In the future, you can also help Liuyun City in some aspects. ”

Ye Xuan didn't wait for them to continue, and directly made his attitude clear: "In your eyes, this canal is just competing with you for interests, but in my case, it has more important significance, so no one can stop me from digging the canal." ”

"Young man, don't talk too impulsively!" Han Chengxin snorted coldly and said, "See clearly, there are twelve city lords here, and each of them is a fourth-level city lord. Sin against us, and you have no good fruit to eat. ”

Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel again, Fang Gunxiao hurriedly spoke out to ease the atmosphere: "Everyone, everyone, don't worry, if you want to stop us from digging the canal, it is better to explain the reason first." ”

Han Chengxin snorted: "What other reasons do you need? I don't hide it, the canal is completed, the trade road of the Wan Clan is rerouted, my Jinluo City loses the trade road, and I will drink the northwest wind in the future!"

He paused for a moment and continued to sneer: "In the final analysis, you are using this canal to compete for the interests of my Jinluo City and Hongbo City. Grab all the benefits, since it's a conflict of interests, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Fang Yanxiao didn't say anything to argue, but looked at Ye Xuan, he felt that this question should be said by Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan stood up, turned around and glanced at the map on the wall, and asked, "Do you think that this canal is only used to compete with you for interests?"

"Otherwise?" Han Chengxin and the others asked with a sneer.

Ye Xuan stretched out his hand and tapped on the map, and said, "Look clearly! Let's talk about the trade routes of all ethnic groups first, if the trade routes remain the same, take a detour from Longyuan Prefecture to Nanhuangzhou, and then go north into Donglu Prefecture." I would like to ask, how many days does this road take for an average caravan?"

The twelve city lords glanced at each other, not understanding what Ye Xuan wanted to say.

Han Chengxin thought about it for a moment and replied, "In a month, it will always arrive." ”

If the Wanzu trade route detours from Longyuan Prefecture to Nanhuangzhou, although it is flat and easier to walk along the way, it will take at least more than a month to walk after a long detour, and if it is a caravan that transports a lot of goods, it will even take two months.

Ye Xuan tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "City Lord Han, it seems that you don't know much about the caravan. The caravan is not your escort, the caravan with a large number of goods, to take the road of Southern Wasteland, stop and go, sometimes it takes two months!"

Ye Xuan then pointed to the location of the canal with his finger and said, "Then do you know how long it will take for the caravan to sail north from Longyuan Prefecture to Liuyun City if the canal is completed?"

Han Chengxin and the other city lords didn't answer, because they hadn't calculated carefully, but they knew that the time it took must be very short.

"Don't you know the answer? Then let me tell you, if you pull the boat with a bird spirit animal, you can get there in one day!"

Ye Xuan glanced around at these city lords and asked loudly: "The difference between one day and two months, you tell me now, I am just competing with you for benefits?"
