Chapter 798: Western Alliance

Previous Chapter

After a five-day trip, Li Xiao returned to the main city of Xiliang City.

In the ten days before and after, a large amount of refined salt in Xiliang City flowed into the western countries.

Sure enough, the Sun family strictly ordered the countries of all sizes in the west of Xiluzhou to be stationary and buy salt from Xiliang City, otherwise they would join forces with other chambers of commerce to sanction these countries that bought commercial salt from Xiliang City.

Zhou Guo also released a related copy, the content is similar to the Sun family, mainly to put pressure on various countries.

Of course, it was not out of Li Xiao's expectations, there were still many people who took risks and bought a large amount of commercial salt from Xiliang City and returned to their country to sell it.

Anyone who has seen the world understands a truth, the long-range attack of the flying sword of the Great Zhou Kingdom will not be used on the heads of some small countries around it at all, because it is not worth it at all.

Even if it is really fought in the future, the first to bear the brunt will only be Xiliang City.

Qingshui Guo has always said to the Sun family and Xi Ni that he would prohibit trade with Xiliangcheng, but the treaty port in Baiyang County has not been closed.

With the efforts of Yao Yan and Xu Zhiwei and other people who understand the current situation, Qingshui Country has provided Xiliangcheng with some preferential tariff policies.

Yao Yan has also completely grown into a "little fox".

Before he Yao Yan took the throne, he didn't have the emperor's right to speak, so he would work secretly first to push Xiliang City up.

Of course, Yao Yan also has an element of gambling, and what he wants to bet on is Li Xiao's personality. Bet that after Xiliang City is completely expanded, Xiliang City will not expand.

Otherwise, he Qingshui Country would be the first to bear the brunt.

Xu Zhiwu gave Li Xiao a very high evaluation, and Yao Yan also felt that Li Xiao was an upright person, so he dared to gamble without hesitation.

A day later, representatives of the six surrounding countries came to Xiliang City.

Li Xiao naturally politely greeted him outside the City Lord's Mansion in person, and welcomed a group of more than ten people to the City Lord's Mansion.

These people who come to Xiliang City for the first time can't help but sigh at the prosperity of Xiliang City.

This speed of development is simply unheard of and unseen.

It has not been a year since the establishment of Xiliang City was announced, but the main city is definitely countless times more prosperous than the countries they represent.

The western boundary, the Liangjing of Qingshui Country, may not be as prosperous as the main city of Xiliang City.

The three new countries were naturally persuaded to come by representatives of Changguo and several other countries.

In the hall, it was the first time for everyone to see this kind of oval conference table, Li Xiao invited everyone to take a seat, and then took out the copy about the alliance that had been prepared in advance and distributed it to everyone in person.

"Everyone, I won't say much nonsense, the conditions for the Western Union to join, the terms, etc., are all written on the copy. If you have any terms that need to be added, you can put them forward, as long as they are reasonable, you can add them. Li Xiao, who returned to the main seat, said to everyone.

Everyone first looked at the terms of the Western Alliance seriously, and after reading it for an hour, everyone began to talk to each other, and kept looking at each other and nodding their heads.

This kind of equal alliance cooperation clause is also the first time they have seen it.

Countries that join the Western Alliance, regardless of the size of the country, enjoy the decision-making power of the alliance meeting.

All countries that have joined the Western Alliance will respect each other's territorial sovereignty and cannot interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.

Countries will be able to communicate with each other, and multilateralities will have to reduce tariffs.

The most important point is that, in addition to the Cao Yun ferry ports in the three countries of Changguo and other countries promised by Li Xiao before, the terms also state that in the future, Cao Yun will open Cao Yun ferries in each region within the scope of the alliance.

Moreover, there is no kingdom that needs to pay tribute to Xiliang City.

All the conditions are very tempting, so these people feel that this kind of alliance clause is not very real.

"One day, our Western Alliance will replace the three major dynasties in the East and become the largest force in the Western Continent. In the future, our Western Alliance will also go out of the Western Continent and wrestle with the top dynasties of several other continents. Li Xiao said.

is so young, but has such ambitions, this is not enough to be admired by everyone.

As for the issue of Zhou's sanctions, in fact, everyone can figure it out, and Li Xiao doesn't need to explain more.

Anyway, Xiliang City, as the head of the Western Alliance, openly confronted the Sun family, and they would bear the brunt.

Even if the alliance dissolves in the future, it won't do them any harm. If you can fight for a Caoyun ferry in your own country, it will be a great thing for the benefit of the whole country.

If it can really develop as stated in the article, it will be a great opportunity for these small countries that have not encountered in a thousand years.

Liao Wenkang, the envoy of Changguo, was the first to agree to join the alliance.

Anyway, there is no way out, and the consequence of not joining the Western Alliance is to wait for the liquidation of the Qingshui Kingdom.

Even if the emperor doesn't find them to settle accounts now, after Yao Yan, the king of Qi, takes the throne in the future, he will definitely find them for liquidation.

"On behalf of Changguo, I joined the Western Alliance, and in the future, I Changguo will work together with Xiliangcheng to seek common development." Liao Wenkang said.

"Also on behalf of Hungary, join the Western League."

……

The envoys of the six countries agreed to join the Western Alliance, and signed the documents and stamped the seals of each country.

"Now that the envoys have signed, then in the future we must abide by the rules, respect each other, and benefit each other. If there is intrigue, or if anyone dares to wave troops to the country under the Western Alliance, I, Li, will definitely attack in person. Li Xiao got up and said loudly.

After signing the letter, everyone was relieved. In short, there is no need to worry about the liquidation of Shimizu Province in the short term.

Unless Qing Shui Guo wants to go against Xiliang City, it is obvious that Xiliang City will not take any more action against Xiliang City at present.

Li Xiao knocked out Kongmu Mountain, but Xiliangcheng didn't say a word. If this had been changed in the past, the Qing Shui Kingdom would have already waved its troops against each other.
