Caobang Headquarters

Lin Shan waved his hand and all his subordinates retreated.

He and his adoptive father Wang Juntao were the only two people left in the conference hall.

Wang Juntao is the old leader of the Cao Gang, and Lin Shan is his adopted son.

In the past two years, he has gotten older and has basically stopped doing things.

At this time, he said worriedly, "The imperial court has issued an order prohibiting Dali merchants from trading in Pingzhou and Nandi. Violators will be shot. Shan'er, don't we have two hundred Pingzhou navy in our fleet? Will everything be okay?"

In the past two days, news came back from Bi Qie that the two hundred navy troops in Pingzhou had been of great help to our Cao Gang.

Lin Shan thought about this and said, "Transactions are based on fairness and equality. Is our exchange in Caobang and Hepingzhou fair and equal? ​​No, how can we call it a transaction when we have the absolute advantage?" "

"Our Caobang is taking advantage of Pingzhou and consuming Pingzhou's resources." They didn't give Pingzhou any material feedback, right?

At this point, Lin Shan touched his chin and said, "Speaking of which, we also helped the court." Yes, that's it.

The old gang leader was amused by his strong words, "When did you become so sharp-tongued?"

Lin Shan also felt that his mouth seemed to have become sharper. He touched his nose. Could it be that he was too close to Pingzhou?

Forget it, this is not important, Lin Shan turned to say, "Gang leader, we should also think about the future."

Now that Dali is divided, it is not clear who will rule the world in the future.But always choose one to depend on.

"Let me think about it, let me think about it." The old gang leader was so worried that his eyebrows were knitted together.

Lin Shan didn't rush him. He really had to think about it slowly. They had such a huge fortune.

He himself is also thinking about who among the current forces has a greater chance of winning.

Now the imperial court and Nandi are about to start a fight. I wonder what the final result will be?Now it seemed that the imperial court was powerful, but Lin Shan knew that Xie Zhan, the governor of Lingnan, was by no means the kind of person who would be slaughtered by others.

"Father, just keep this matter in mind. We don't have to make a decision in a hurry." It's still too early now.

Wang Juntao nodded and suddenly said, "Shan'er, if Pingzhou rebels or Lingnan rebels, you haven't thought about it?"

After realizing what his adoptive father said, Lin Shan's body trembled, "Father, this Dali is already in chaos, why do we need to start a new one?"

"Just tell me whether you want it or not?"

Lin Shan murmured in his heart, maybe his adoptive father thought about it himself?How dare you think so.

To be honest, he is a man, how could he not have the dream of competing in the world?

But in the dead of night, he asked himself, if he really wanted to join the competition, could he beat Lu Songli and Xie Zhan?

During the past two years, due to frequent cooperation with Pingzhou, Lu Songli and Xie Zhan had secretly fought several times. He was considered an insider and had a deeper understanding of the two than others.

These two people are both talented and strategic people. He is not belittling himself, but the fact is that he can't compare. He really can't compare.

Now the adoptive father came to ask him this question.

Did he not want to?

Is it because he doesn't want to?

None, but compared to these two people, he is just a younger brother!

He didn't dare to think about it anymore. Now his adoptive father has some thoughts?Lin Shan simply told his adoptive father the details of the two years of fighting between Lu Songli and Xie Zhan.

After saying this, he added, "Father, with the current strength and wealth of our Cao Gang, it is not impossible to build a small force."

"To compete in the world, we must first have a territory, right? Look at the whole territory of Dali. Lu Songli occupies the two states of Pingyou, King Jin occupies the East China Sea, and Xie Zhan occupies Lingnan. Their territories have coastal ports and docks, and the entire coast There are not many sites left to choose from in this area, which one do you think we can win over?"

The thoughts that had just surfaced in the old gang leader's mind had dissipated. Hearing this, he cursed, "You prodigal son, what kind of territory do you have? You will miss your adoptive father's coffin book!"

Wang Juntao had just figured it out. If they wanted to join the fight for hegemony, the first step was to acquire a piece of territory.This territory must be grabbed, either from Dali or from these people.

However, none of these people are easy to mess with.

After robbing them, we still have to be neighbors with them...

If you seize the land, you have to run it, right?It will cost a lot of money. The key is that this land may be swallowed up by them at any time.

Hearing this, Lin Shan knew that he had persuaded the person.Conquering the world is expensive.He was destined to be exterminated and incorporated, so why spend the money?

"Father, you can just think about some things. Don't be impulsive. Impulsiveness costs money. It's not easy to think about how much money you have saved your whole life."

"We don't have to worry about it. We don't have that chance. We might as well take advantage of this period to take a good look with our eyes wide open and find a reliable shot." Without saying anything, they took this huge belongings with them. If you really choose to defect to the Ming Dynasty, you will not be able to escape the position of a marquis in the future.

"What you said makes sense, so who should we choose?" Wang Juntao asked Lin Shan.

Recently, King Jin and Xie Zhan both sent people to contact them. They only said that they needed to consider it, but did not give any specific words.

Lin Shan was also worried. He didn't know if such a big question was asked to him. "It's not urgent. Let's think about it first. We can think about it for a while, but it can't be too long."

There is no way they can survive this mess alone.

The most taboo thing about doing things is to please both sides. The result of not offending both sides is that both sides will be offended.

If you don't join them, you are their enemy.So after the outcome of the Battle of Lingnan, they had to make a choice.

Southwest, Dong Mansion

Under Jiang Boya's lobbying, King Cheng finally agreed to form an alliance with Xie Zhan to fight against the Dali court.

Fortunately, Jiang Boya fulfilled his mission. After receiving King Cheng's permission, he planned to rest for one night and rush back to Lingnan tomorrow.

After Jiang Boya took a short rest in the other courtyard arranged by the other party, he went to Dong's Mansion for a banquet in the evening.

Jiang Boya and Dong Jichuan were about the same age. When they were young, they were both young talents. They heard about each other at first, and later met by chance in Chang'an and swam together.Later, they maintained a gentle friendship between gentlemen.

Because they have a faint friendship, the two of them are no strangers when they meet again this time.

As the banquet started, amidst the sounds of silk and bamboo, the two of them couldn't help but talk about the current six-party forces.

However, the two of them only talked briefly. After all, the troubled times had just begun and it was too early to say anything.

After three rounds of drinking, the two of them were tipsy. Jiang Boya used his drunkenness to hint that Dong Jichuan would switch to another camp.

Among the five points in the world, King Cheng and Jin Jiang are the least expected by the people in the world.

The Dali Dynasty has been around for 200 years. The Song family is the emperor, and the people think that is enough.

When life becomes a pool of stagnant water and insensitive, people's urgent hope is change.

In addition, King Cheng's character is arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't seem to be able to achieve anything.

Dong Jichuan only said, "There is no need to say this again. King Cheng is kind to me."

Jiang Boya smiled, yes, in these troubled times, there has been no first place in literature and no second place in martial arts since ancient times.They are all counselors. Who doesn't want the lord whom he voted for to achieve great success through his assistance, and he can also become a marquis and prime minister, and his name will go down in history?

He took a sip of wine and then changed the subject, "I wonder which force Guo Chong and Fan Yang will defect to?"

Guo Chong and Fan Yang were the outstanding and wise men of their time, but they have fallen silent in recent years.

When Dong Jichuan heard this, his hand holding the wine glass paused and he shook his head. It was difficult to guess what the two men were thinking.

But he had a hunch that these two people would definitely join the game, but the time had not come yet.
