Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 253: Self-damage 8, cession of the city!

As the hosts, they all spoke in this way, and naturally the forces on both sides at the scene died down.

Chen Shimao waved at Chang Baishan.

Prince Liang on the side also grabbed Prince Yu.

"Everyone, today we, the tribal leaders, have gathered together. People from Lingnan and the Daqian court have also arrived. We are here to discuss the affairs of Lingnan."

As the person in charge today, Lan Chongshan saw that both parties had finally calmed down, so he smiled and started to negotiate with them.

All three forces came to the open space and sat down.

Prince Yu's eyes were fixed on Chen Shimao.

"Since we're negotiating, we should seek help from our southern tribe. So, please show your sincerity and avoid beating around the bush. How about that?"

The southern tribes' appearance this time was almost a free benefit.

These days, the people under their command were even a little impatient, so as soon as they came on the stage, Lan Chongshan told them what they were thinking.

Seeing how impatient they were, Prince Yu was also moved and stood up and said to everyone:

"Everyone, I still have the same conditions as before. In addition to the supplies from Lingnan, the court will also provide you with a batch of additional supplies, and we can also give you part of the factory over there."

When they heard the words "Qingdao Factory", many people breathed faster. Many people had heard that the daily output of the factory built by Qin Ming in Lingnan was an unimaginable number.

Factories can mass-produce bicycles, silk fabrics, and various farm tools at extremely high speeds.

If such a factory could be obtained, the future development of the hundreds of ethnic groups in the south would definitely benefit greatly.

But at this time, Chen Shimao on the side smiled and said:

"Your Highness, can I ask you a question?"

"You said."

Prince Yu had beautiful eyebrows. He knew that once Chen Shimao opened his mouth, he would most likely put himself at a disadvantage, but this was a negotiation, and there was no way he could shut him up.

Chen Shimao slowly stood up, then turned around and asked everyone with a smile.

"Do you know what the core of the factory is?"

"what?"

Lan Chongshan looked at Chen Shimao curiously. To be honest, they had only heard of the factory but had never seen it with their own eyes. Even Prince Yu and Prince Liang had only heard about it from hearsay.

Chen Shimao sighed.

"Everyone, the factory can only be controlled by King Qin, because the core of the factory is people!"

"The factory does have a lot of machinery that can improve efficiency, but these things still need people to use them. So... how do we manage them, how do we ensure everyone earns money, and how do we sell all the goods? It's not something you can achieve with just a factory."

"I wonder if you can understand what I am saying?"

Hear this.

The people of the hundreds of southern tribes, Prince Yu, and Prince Liang were all stunned.

In their eyes, as long as they get the factory, they can increase their own production and make a lot of money like Qin Ming.

But Chen Shimao's words quickly woke them up.

"So what? Even if we don't take the factory, Lingnan still has countless resources that can be distributed to the hundreds of tribes in the south after helping Daqian defeat the King of Qin!"

Seeing that the other party said something he didn't know, Prince Yu suddenly felt at a disadvantage, so he mentioned the resources he had promised before.

But when he heard this, Chen Shimao laughed.

"Including the looting of Lingnan, how many resources does the imperial court have to supply to the hundreds of southern tribes?"

"No matter how much you give, Lingnan can give you double it."

When they heard these words, everyone around them suddenly widened their eyes.

They looked at Chen Shimao in disbelief.

In fact, they don’t understand that since Qin Ming started industrialization and continued to develop business.

Their productivity began to grow explosively.

Just the goods produced.

The business improvements they promoted have already made Qin Ming a fortune.

In Lingnan, one person can even achieve success and influence all the surrounding areas.

Including hundreds of ethnic groups in the south.

This is the embodiment of strength.

In comparison, every ounce of silver the imperial court paid out was paid out with gritted teeth.

"You guys are crazy."

Prince Yu and Prince Liang both looked very unhappy.

Facing the powerful Lingnan.

The reason why they can still sit at the negotiating table and confront Chen Shimao.

It’s simply because a skinny camel is bigger than a horse in the imperial court.

But how long can this skinny camel last?

Actually, no one knows.

At this time, Chen Shimao continued:

"Everyone, I came here to ask you to stop, not because Lingnan is so powerful or wealthy."

"Those are all irrelevant matters. Lingnan's most important influence on you is its development. Don't you envy Lingnan for its rapid growth in such a short period of time?"

"It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. If Lingnan survives, we can teach the southern tribes how to develop. Then you will no longer have to rely on others for your livelihood, and you won't have to plunder resources. You will be a prosperous place on your own."

Chen Shimao's eloquence is amazing.

After interrupting Prince Yu's speech with a few words, he first made the other party's statement untenable.

He showed his strength again.

Finally, he used both emotional and logical means to plan a blueprint for everyone's future.

I have to say that he is indeed an extremely talented person.

It even caused many people from the southern tribes present to begin to waver in their hearts.

They all looked at Lan Chongshan.

But he found that Lan Chongshan actually nodded slightly after listening to what Chen Shimao said.

Even Lan Chongshan himself didn't notice this little action.

But this tantamount to representing his approval of Chen Shimao.

"As expected of the Prime Minister of Daqian, what you said makes a lot of sense."

At this time, Lan Chongshan also felt the gazes of everyone around him.

So he took the initiative to stand up and compliment Chen Shimao.

But he did not forget the two princes standing in front of him.

After turning around, he slowly continued to speak to the two of them:

"Do you two have anything else to say?"

"Of course, the conditions we offer are definitely better than the promise he made to you. You can get it right now!"

Prince Yu looked at Chen Shimao viciously.

His words suddenly made everyone present curious.

"Appreciate further details."

Chen Shimao was not affected at all, but just quietly waited for him to put forward his conditions.

But the next moment, Prince Yu pulled out a map from his arms.

"There are thirty-two cities in Lingnan. I will give half to you."

"You don't have to worry about taking over the people in those factories. These areas can naturally bring in all the local people to work in them later!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was discussing the matter at the scene was shocked!

"What!?"

Directly ceding a city is something only a defeated dynasty would do!
