Chapter 252: Breaking the Balance

"Let the flotilla come to shore and order the soldiers not to attack on their own initiative. When Lenilus saw the merchant ships led by the Black Star family, he knew why the other party came, and when he looked closely, those merchant ships were flying the family flags that were stopped by Rand out of the shallow waters, "We're in trouble." ”

Lanilus secretly scolded in his heart, he didn't take this into account, the lack of interests would make these merchants take risks, although they didn't dare to attack the air ferry territory, but they had no scruples about intercepting the merchant ships of the Peruvian family, the other party obviously came to ask the teacher for the sake of guilt, his number of soldiers was too small, how to deal with the enemy?

Without giving Lanilus much time to think, the Blackstar family's warship was already approaching, and a tall middle-aged man on the deck had a sneer on his face, and Lanilus recognized him at a glance, Kamodo Rangue.

In the Black Star Family, his position is only below the patriarch, and he is the authoritative figure in charge of the Black Star Family Chamber of Commerce.

Known for his deep scheming and iron wrists, he has never had any mistakes in the decades he has been at the helm of the Black Star Chamber of Commerce.

And his reputation is not very good, always related to assassination and bribery, Rannyrus stared at the other party's face, he didn't expect the Black Star family to send him, it seems that the blockade of the shallow water beach has touched their bottom line.

Ranirus felt that his means of cooperating with Rand to blockade the shallow water were indeed a little too violent to leave room for maneuver, but he did not expect the opponent's counterattack to be so rapid, he stood on the deck and looked at the somewhat nervous soldiers beside him, and shouted: "Hold on to your weapons!

The soldiers, sensing their slightly trembling bodies, felt ashamed at once, forcibly expelled the fear in their hearts, and stood up straight and grasped the spears and daggers in their hands with great force.

The ships of both sides were getting closer and closer, and the warships of the other families were slowly blocking the back path of Lanilus, a dozen warships surrounded them on the water, and Lanilus could even hear the sound of the ropes of the catapults on the other ship.

With gloomy faces, neither of them preemptively spoke, just staring at each other silently, and the smile on Kamodo's face was mocking and playful, looking at Lanilus as if he were looking at a boar in a trap, as if he was considering whether to braise him or steam him, and the gazes from the other ships made Lanilus look even more like a ghost, their gazes as sharp as their weapons, and they did not hide the hatred in them.

"Honorable Lord Kamodo, what is the reason why you stopped the Peruvian family's merchant ship?" Although he knew the other party's intention, Lanilus still stubbornly spoke.

Kamodo stood on the deck of the warship, the ships of the Blackstar family were much higher than the merchant ships of the Peruvian family, and he looked condescendingly at Lanilus, who was shouting to him, and slowly pulled a slight arc recently.

"At this point, there's no need to pretend to be confused. Kamodo spoke, his tone full of chilling coldness, and he did not hide his quick killing intent to kill Lanilus, the guy who cut off his wealth, "Lannirus, we belong to the Southern Shang Clan, and what you did made me and my partners very angry. ”

"No, I should say, I'm so angry that I want to tear you to pieces. "Who gave you the confidence to think that the Peruvian family has the strength to monopolize the market in the north?"

"Is it the Capetian family? or is it your father who has been hiding in the castle and not daring to show his head?"

As soon as the other party came up, he went straight to the point, leaving no chance for Lanilus to think, he thought about it and took two steps forward, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "I think, this is a misunderstanding, I have heard a little about the blockade of the shallow water, but the Peruvian family is definitely not involved......"

"Lie!" Kamodo shook his head, "shameless lies will only deepen my disgust with you, don't try to delay time with these things." ”

"I mean, we can sit down and discuss it calmly, there is no need to get into the current situation, the southern Shang clan has never waged war between the major families since the day it was founded, and the cost of breaking this balance is very heavy. Ranilus swallowed, "The Grand Dukes everywhere are salivating over the wealth accumulated in the Southern Isles, and if we have a civil war, then they will definitely take the opportunity to wave their troops south and reap the fruits of victory." ”

"That's because no family has ever dared to take the initiative to break the rules," Kamodo sneered, "Blocking the shallow water beach is equivalent to blocking the trade routes of several of our families, and the merchant clan will not be able to survive without interest." ”

"You just said that the price of breaking the balance is very heavy, and I agree with this very much, but this balance was broken by you, you let the southern Shang clan's business route for hundreds of years be blocked, you cut off the lifeblood of our family, and now you dare to talk to me about peace......"

"You're thinking we're a little too weak. ”

Lanilus also took a deep breath, and in the current situation, it may not be realistic to continue to delay, "So, what do you want?"

"Two choices. "First, tell your partners to liberate the blockade of the shallow waters, and ensure the safe passage of the merchant ships of the Southern merchant clan from now on, and in addition, you will compensate all the losses we have suffered during the blockade, and second, the Peruvian family will take out 10% of the profits from the operation thereafter and pay taxes to the Southern Chamber of Commerce." ”

Southern Chamber of Commerce Alliance.

Rannyruth's face was a little ugly, "How come I've never heard of a Chamber of Commerce Alliance?"

"It is the leader of the Black Star Family's temporary agency association that has just been established by several of our merchant families. Kamodo gestured to the ships around him.

Ten percent of the profits, these bastards really dare to speak!

Lanirus knew very well that this was just a means for the other party to weaken the Peruvian family, and even if he agreed to them, he would definitely continue to make more excessive demands in the future, and at that time, it would be a little powerless to resist.

"What about the second option?"

Kamodo's face also became serious, "The second option is much simpler. ”

"Go to war! Our six Shang clans will choose to declare war on the Peruvian family at the same time, and we will definitely not stop until the last of you clan is completely wiped out. ”

"You can try to resist, or you can try to call your partner for help, but it depends on whether he can transport his soldiers thousands of miles to the south. ”
