Compared with the funds, He Lingchuan pays more attention to the hidden effects of this agreement:
Now, Lingshan has invested a large amount of real money in Panlong City, and is waiting for dividends every year.
The stock determines the brain, and interests determine friends and enemies. With the bond of interests, He Lingchuan believes that the relationship between Panlong City and Lingshan will be stronger. Is it possible that the scene in real history where Qian Huan betrayed Panlong City will be postponed or even not happen?
Otherwise, it would ruin Lingshan’s own rice bowl.
Now that things have come to this, he will bind Panlong City and Lingshan together through these agreements and sharing of interests.
He Lingchuan was not sure whether the information about the Dayan Dzi Bead that he "accidentally" leaked could be passed on to Master Qianhuan, and whether Master Qianhuan would believe it?
In the same year, Panlong City also intervened in two wars in the south, including responding to the request of the Four-Nation Alliance.
If it wants to open a second trade route to the sea, it must expand its influence and cannot always be kind to others. Although Zhong Shengguang does not like to resort to force for everything, for these small countries, military deterrence is often more effective than persuasion.
Seeing that he was worried recently, Sun Fuling asked, "The relationship between Panlong City and Lingshan has been restored. What's troubling you?"
"Have you delivered the martial arts that Lingshan promised?"
"They have arrived in three batches. There are a lot of them, and they cover a wide range of categories." Sun Fuling smiled as she spoke of this. "We haven't made the final count yet, but there are at least 500 mental methods and magical powers. Some of them are very powerful. We will arrange for someone to transcribe them soon."
"That's good. Panlong City can catch up with this round of spiritual energy recovery, and its strength will surely grow rapidly!" He Lingchuan sighed, "I was just thinking that it's easier to invite a god than to send him away. Commander Zhong must have regretted the in-depth cooperation with Lingshan, right?"
Sun Fuling said softly: "There is no regret medicine in the world, we can only keep moving forward."
"Panlong City's current compromises with Lingshan are also helpless. It is what we have to do now." Just as he was passing through the South Gate, He Lingchuan stared at the black dragon on the wall. "If I were the head of a place or a king of a country, I would definitely learn from Panlong City's lessons, insist on independence from the beginning, and draw a clear line between myself and Lingshan!"
The best way to get along with Lingshan is to have fewer entanglements and more dialogues.
Fortunately, the Shining Golden Plains has just opened a new chapter, and he has the ability to avoid this big pit and re-examine the future relationship between Cangyan Kingdom and Lingshan.
Even if he is penniless and has a hard time starting out, he wants to give Cang Yan a good start in his development!

In the bright spring sunshine, Bailie once again ushered in a bumper harvest.
Thanks to the frequent outbreaks of the Emperor's Flood, the winter wheat matured early, and the heavy wheat ears bent the stalks. On both sides of the official road, there were golden waves of wheat.
Palm harvesting is also in full swing.
To the east of Bailie is a large palm forest. When the spring harvest season comes, temporary workers and hired laborers all come out and work busily in the forest.
But on this day, we suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves from the east, and a large group of troops were coming from outside the forest!
The farmer looked up, dropped his work and tools, and ran away, shouting, "The Yaguo bandits are coming! Run! Run!"
During the harvest season, Bailie harvested the crops and forests, and Yaguo came to harvest Bailie. Over the years, this seemed to have become a routine. The farmers in Bailie had no intention of resisting, and had long developed the habit of avoiding their sharp edges.
In previous years, as long as these farms were obedient and handed over their products, the Ya people would leave after robbing them without causing many casualties. After all, their goal was money and food, and these farms were like their chive fields, as long as they didn't dig up the roots, they would grow another crop after cutting it.
But this time is different!
After looting the property, the army of Ya State did not retreat immediately, but gathered the villages and towns and drove them back to Ya State like shepherding sheep!
Not only do they want money and property, they also want people!
Such excessive demands immediately caused extreme panic among the people of Bailie.
What would be the fate of the captured Bailie people? Even if you think about it with your knees, you know that it will be miserable!
Bai Lie negotiated with the Kingdom of Yad two or three times, hoping to get the captured people back, but to no avail.
Ya Guoli ignored it and continued to do as he pleased.
When the news reached Cangyan Country, Du Shan only took a glance at the intelligence and excitedly asked to see He Lingchuan:
"Emperor, what a great opportunity!"
Every time this guy mentioned the word "great opportunity", he had something bad in his mind. A military code was submitted below, and He Lingchuan was personally revising it. He did not stop writing when he heard this: "Tell me about it."
"Yaguo has plundered Bailie again. This time, they not only robbed money and food, but also kidnapped people. Bailie has negotiated with many parties but to no avail. The two sides are likely to go to war again."
He Lingchuan only used half of his head to talk to him: "Well, because the last time the Mou Kingdom ignored Beijia's truce gesture, Beijia stepped up its attack, so the battle on the western front of the Mou Kingdom has been very fierce recently. I received intelligence here that Beijia ordered the Ya Kingdom to cooperate. But the Ya Kingdom did not have the courage to send troops directly to the Mou Kingdom, so it may have chosen a compromise plan to invade Bailie under the protection of the Mou Kingdom."
He exhaled: "Speaking of which, the scouts we placed in Beijia and Yaguo are all good, but the scouts in Mouguo are a little bit worse."
Du Shan nodded: "Yes, the spies stationed in Mouguo have not been able to send back intelligence in a timely manner. I will select more people."
"Back to Bailie."
"Yes. The Mou Kingdom had just forced the Ya Kingdom to withdraw its troops from the Golden Plains not long ago, and they probably don't want to cause any more trouble right now. Bailie asked for help from the Mou Kingdom, but he didn't get any substantial assistance."
Ya State was forced to withdraw its troops by Mou State, and was holding back anger. How could Mou State not know this? If the other side had vented its anger appropriately, Mou State would have ignored it.
As for whether it was money or people that were taken away from Bailie, why would the Mou Kingdom care?
Lingguang was sitting on the table grinding ink. Hearing this, he asked curiously, "The Ya country used to rob things, why are they kidnapping people now?"
He Lingchuan touched its head and smiled without saying anything.
It was Du Shan who explained it:
"I haven't received any more specific information yet, but there are at least two reasons that are the motivation for Yaguo to plunder the population."
He raised a finger: "First of all, the unification of the Shining Gold Plain and the rise of Cangyan Kingdom have made Ya Kingdom deeply wary. Ya Kingdom is not far from Mou Kingdom and was originally threatened by it. Now with our strong rise, Ya Kingdom must be deeply uneasy being caught in the middle."
The newly established Cangyan State borders Ya State, and is a neighbor that cannot be moved away. Not long ago, they became enemies and did not treat each other well. Because the territory of Cangyan State is too large, Ya State is extremely vigilant.
After the establishment of Cangyan State, Ya State was sandwiched between Mou State and Cangyan State.
When people are stressed, they want to arm themselves; the same is true for countries. When they feel threatened, they will plan to expand their military and increase their force.
