Chapter 246: Border trade

Translator: 549690339

“They’re here to seek refuge with me.”

Lu Chen’s intelligence had recovered a little after he recovered from the excitement of the battle. Therefore, he could guess the purpose of their visit without red butterfly Ji’s explanation.

In response, red butterfly Ji gently nodded her head, “My Lord is wise. They are indeed here to seek refuge. This is the list of gifts from the people of Yunzhou.”

Only the people from Yunzhou came with the gift list. On the other hand, not only did Lu Chen not get anything from the barbarians, he even had to give them a lot of things.

It couldn’t be helped, the barbarians who came were all prepared to join Lu Chen’s side. Lu Chen could only spend money to support those who risked their lives for him.

While Lu Chen was looking at the list of gifts, red butterfly Ji also said, ” “Lord husband, I’ve already seen the sons of the leaders who came here. These few are all acceptable. As for the cloud region, these few families are very sincere.” Red butterfly Ji still wanted to give Lu Chen some advice but Lu Chen waved his hand and interrupted her.

Such actions caused red butterfly Ji’s expression to darken.”Your Highness still doesn’t believe me.”

However, red butterfly Ji immediately raised her head in shock. Lu Chen’s next words completely shocked her.

in the future, just report these trivial matters to me. You can handle the rest on your own.

At first, these words made red butterfly Ji ecstatic, but soon, she thought of something and knelt on the ground, ” Lord husband, I’m only helping you analyze. Everything is still up to Lord’s decision.

Looking at red butterfly Ji who was kneeling on the ground, Lu Chen, who had slightly recovered his intelligence, shook his head, ” don’t think of me as such a bad person. I’ll just tell you what I want to do, I won’t test you like this. these things are just trivial matters to me. I don’t like to deal with these things. I’ll go and rest after meeting some of the sons of the leaders. Help me entertain these people.

When she realized that Lu Chen wasn’t being sarcastic and really handed the ‘ trivial matters ” to her, red butterfly Ji’s face bloomed with joy.

Didn’t she always try to please Lu Chen for these things? those weren’t ‘trifles’ but power.

After accepting red butterfly Ji’s role, she could accept some people’s gifts and reject some people. With the choice, she had the freedom to do what she wanted.

As long as she slightly shifted her target, those who didn’t get along with red butterfly Ji would suffer great losses.

At the same time, if she were to come out and recruit those subordinates, she would also be able to gain the favor of the people she recruited.

It could be said that in ancient China, the Emperor would never give up this right to choose.

However, this wasn’t ancient China. This was the divine era where great power was one’s own. In this world, although power and wealth were good, the most important thing was personal strength.

Therefore, Lu Chen wouldn’t let other things affect his progress.

“So what if I hand it over to red butterfly Ji? if she dares to rebel, I can kill all the subordinates she relies on by myself.”

“In the future, I’ll have red butterfly help me with External Affairs. As for the internal affairs of the family, I’ll leave them all to Xiao Wei.”

Compared to red butterfly Ji, Lu Chen trusted Xiao Wei more. The reason why he gave red butterfly Ji a lot of power was because of her ability.

However, he didn’t need to be very capable to manage the household affairs. Therefore, Lu Chen could leave it to Xiao Wei.

After making up his mind, Lu Chen went straight into the room. As soon as Lu Chen entered the room, the barbarians and the people of Yunzhou who were waiting for him in the room stood up.

“Welcome, Your Highness.”

“All of you, sit down.”

Lu Chen sat down on the main seat and gestured for the others to sit down as well. Then, he looked at the people of Yunzhou.

Before Lu Chen could say anything, a few of the smarter people in Yunzhou stood up and congratulated Lu Chen, ” congratulations to Your Highness for your invincibility. Your grace today has made us admire you very much. Please forgive us for coming here without proper reason.

“Good.”

After that, Lu Chen gestured to red for red butterfly to speak.

“My Lords, my husband has already prepared a banquet. Please wait a moment,

Yingluo.”

With red butterfly Ji’s communication, the scene was quite lively.

Of course, Lu Chen didn’t mistreat the barbarians who were ready to join him. The barbarians who could enter the mansion were all the sons of the

Chieftains. There were ten of them and to Lu Chen’s amusement, most of them were defeated by him.

since it’s them, it’s easy to handle. They should be more obedient than the others after being defeated by me.

Of course, Lu Chen didn’t mistreat them.

However, they didn’t need to say anything to them. Under Lu Chen’s orders, good wine and meat were served.

Under the state of drinking and eating. the barbarians ’emotions were slowlv raised.

However, Lu Chen also noticed that the Barbarian leader’s son and the merchants of Yunzhou didn’t talk to each other even though they were sitting together because of Lu Chen.

Lu Chen didn’t have the intention to pull any strings.

the people of Yunzhou must cooperate. After the tournament with Yunzhou, I will go out to the Royal Court to expand my territory. But there are two things that are necessary for the expansion of my territory: people and materials.

it’s easy to find them. There are refugees everywhere outside the palace, and the villages that can still hold on are harassed by evil spirits every day. As long as I’m willing to protect such villages, I can obtain their loyalty.

“It’s just that people are easy to find, but supplies are hard to come by.”

“If these people of the cloud region are willing to invest in me, I can cooperate with them. However, the cooperation must be led by me. As for the other barbarians, they just need to exchange for the materials of the cloud region from me.’

Lu Chen was prepared to monopolize the resources of Yunzhou and red butterfly Ji had the same idea as him. Therefore, when the barbarians and the people of Yunzhou were clearly separated, neither of them had the idea of building a bridge.

At the same time, even though the people of Yunzhou didn’t talk much to the son of the leader, their conversation with Lu Chen was filled with laughter.

The people of Yunzhou valued Lu Chen’s potential and Lu Chen valued the resources of the people of Yunzhou. Both parties were interested in working together so the gathering was naturally easy.

When the moon was in the sky, Lu Chen said, ” “I’m very grateful for everyone’s support. After my territory is built, the production will be handed over to you for sale. However, my territory has not been built yet, so I need some materials to support it.”

Lu Chen didn’t finish his sentence but the others understood what he meant. please rest assured, Your Highness. As long as Your Highness hands over the production of the territory to us for sales, we will fully support you with the initial materials.

Investing in a Prince did not mean that one would only reap benefits after the Prince became king.

If the Prince was outstanding enough, he would have been able to establish a large tribe while the Barbarian King was still around.

And such a large tribe would have a lot of produce unique to the wilderness.

As long as one paid a little attention to the ancient border, one would understand one thing, and that was that if the border trade was monopolized, it was possible to earn huge profits by reselling..
