Xu Feng rode the Thunder Eagle to Luzhuang. Since the Thunder Eagle was not Xu Feng's natural mount, someone specially invited the Thunder Eagle to the mount station next to the city lord's palace and took care of it.
Before Xu Feng, a few lords had arrived. Seeing Xu Feng coming on a fourth-level flying mount, especially the fourth-level Thunder Eagle, which was not Xu Feng's natural mount, all the preparatory lords gathered around, hoping that Make friends with Xu Feng.
Seven or eight of the more than ten preparatory lords present gathered around a girl, and the rest were leaning alone or in pairs in the hall to observe everyone.
The girl in the middle has a frosty face and a tall figure. She is dressed in a golden silk robe and is simply decorated with one or two classical accessories, showing her elegance.
The girl saw Xu Feng's arrival and took the initiative to greet him.
"Chuanlong Valley, hello Xu Feng, I am the lord of Lion City, Bo Ruolan. Nice to meet you."
"I have admired the lord of the Lion City for a long time. My younger brother Bowen and I have a relationship. The Bow family has a good family style and all the children are outstanding."
Xu Feng also responded to Bo Ruolan cordially.
In his correspondence with Lu Ming, Xu Feng learned that the main initiators of this business alliance were Lu Ming and Bo Ruolan. Since Xu Feng had many fifth-level experts under his command, Lu Ming strongly requested that Xu Feng be included. One of the initiators.
Of course, the two of them are still the core characters, and the role played by Bo Ruolan is somewhat more important.
Bo Ruolan is the eldest daughter of the Yunzhou family and the sister of Bowen. The Bo family is one of the leading wealthy business families in Yunzhou. Its business scope covers ordnance, food and grass, mounts, banks, casinos, food, clothing, housing and transportation...
All aspects of daily life and military construction are involved. This business alliance is also Borolan's strategy to use the family's business advantages to bind the surrounding reserve lords together.
On the one hand, it enhances the influence of the personal territory, on the other hand, it also contributes to the economic growth of the family. It also provides convenient trade channels for the new lords, makes friends with new forces, and forms a good relationship, killing three birds with one stone!
Lu Ming ranked second with his strong military strength, and Xu Feng ranked third.
Lu Ming and Bo Ruolan both conducted a detailed investigation of Xu Feng. He came from the Black Flame Mansion, and his team came from the barbarian Qilian tribe and the Black Flame Mansion Academy. However, this could not explain that Xu Feng actually had fifth-level existences under him, so The two also put Xu Feng on the same footing.
Lu Ming, who was chatting and laughing among the preparatory lords, saw Xu Feng's arrival and pulled Xu Feng away. He brought Xu Feng to the preparatory lords and introduced them one by one. Xu Feng entered the academy from Xujiacun and studied and practiced all the way. , the military, did not pay attention to the etiquette of these aristocratic families.
They only said hello to everyone, but the reserve lords were all very enthusiastic about Xu Feng. The attitudes of Lu Ming and Bo Ruolan all showed that Xu Feng was very powerful.
"Brother Xu, all the lords will gather tomorrow to formally discuss the establishment of the trade alliance. Have a good rest today and join me as chairman tomorrow."
After Lu Ming greeted Xu Feng, he left in a hurry. As the host, Lu Ming needed to prepare all aspects of affairs.
Xu Feng pulled away from the greetings of the various preparatory lords and went to Luzhuang to see how Lu Ming's urban construction was developing. He also planned to learn from it and see if there were any deficiencies in Xucheng's current development.
Strolling through the streets of Luzhuang, you are worthy of being the heir to the palace. The layout of Luzhuang's facilities and transportation are quite organized, leaving enough space for later expansion, and the deployment of city defense troops complements each other.
However, there is still a certain gap between Xu Feng and Xu Feng in terms of city defense equipment. The Xuan-level craftsman Mo Fei played an indispensable role and made a great contribution to Xu Feng's city defense equipment.
With sufficient minerals provided by Xu Feng, a large number of explosive spears, city defense crossbow beds, strong bows and sharp arrows were all equipped on the front line of city defense.
"Lord Xu, are you planning the city defense layout of Luzhuang? It seems that Lord Xu has some ideas about Luzhuang."
A burst of joking came from Bo Ruolan standing next to Xu Feng.
Fascinated by the layout of Lu Village, Xu Feng did not pay attention to Bo Ruolan's arrival for a moment.
"Lord Bo is joking, I am just learning from Lu Ming. His layout of Lu Village is really exquisite, and I have benefited a lot from watching it."
Xu Feng responded to Bo Ruolan without changing his expression.
The two were walking in the streets of Luzhuang, and Xu Feng was also testing Bo Ruolan with every word. The trade alliance was a double-edged sword. Convenient and smooth trade channels could enable the preliminary lords to develop quickly.
They use the special products and useless things in their respective territories to exchange for the food and grass supplies that are urgently needed in the territory, and exchange what they have.
But on the other hand, when the preparatory lords are caught in a trade trap, the grain, military supplies, and equipment in their respective territories are all under the control of the trade alliance, and they may not be able to escape the hands of Bo Ruolan.
It is not difficult to understand the military strength and economic strength of the lords from the quantity and frequency of supply and demand of various materials, so as to analyze the disadvantages, and even use trade channels to divide important people in the territory.
In the memory of a fifth-level city lord digested by Xu Feng, such trade war strategies emerged one after another. Countless novice lords lost control of their territories under the sugar-coated bullets of trade and became puppets.
"City Lord Xu actually doesn't need to worry. Our Bo family is kind to potential potential lords. If City Lord Xu has concerns about the trade alliance, City Lord Xu can freely appoint the trade contacts in Xu City."
Bo Ruolan heard Xu Feng's temptation and concerns in his words, and explained to Xu Feng.
"That's good. I happen to have a follower in Xucheng who graduated from Yunzhou University. His economic and trade results are very good, and he is qualified for the job."
Xu Feng borrowed Po Xialu and assigned Zhou Mao as the liaison person of Xucheng, the trade alliance. He set up a point in Xucheng and was fully responsible for trade matters, so as to prevent the Bo family from intervening in Xucheng.
"City Lord Xu is really stingy, he just takes advantage and doesn't suffer any loss!"
Bo Ruolan rolled his eyes at Xu Feng. Bo Ruolan planned to send his capable deputies into Xu City to collect information about Xu City, so as to evaluate Xu City's potential.
If Xucheng is a paper tiger, then Bo Ruolan's Lion City will choose the opportunity to annex it in one fell swoop.
If she is as strong as Lu Ming said, then she might as well go with the flow and provide Xu Cheng with a lot of trade conveniences, which will only reduce a little profit.
You can even include some rare items that are not on the regular trade list into the transaction with Xu Cheng, and form a good relationship with Xu Feng.
"At that time, we will provide a trade list. According to respective supply and demand, trade settlement will be carried out every quarter. Our people will not intervene in Xucheng. The Lord of Xucheng will lead the people to be responsible for the specific details of the trade."
Hearing Bo Ruolan's answer, Xu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
"City Lord Bo is so awesome!"
The establishment of the trade alliance will circulate vast resources among many preparatory lords, and the strength of each territory will be greatly improved. If Bo Ruolan insists on sending people to be responsible for Xu City's trade, Xu Feng is really hesitant to choose.
Bo Ruolan's answer gave Xucheng the autonomy to trade, which undoubtedly put Xucheng's development on the fast track.
