Went, so what Li Li said was telling the truth. If the Cao Family Trading Company’s army passed by at this time, the southern part of the Northern Empire might lose contact with the central government. The Cao Family Trading Company’s army could be here within a month.

If two or three provinces are captured, if the close combat is rapid, the defeated troops of the Eastern Empire may be full of bigger ones. The provinces in the border areas are not important yet. If they really rush to the central region, this

Things really got serious. His Majesty the Emperor would never let him go easily at that time. It would be better to agree to the conditions he agreed to them now. Besides, with today's situation, there is absolutely no chance of a second round.

Negotiation, no wonder many people accepted it. Negotiating with people from Cao's Commercial Bank only gives you the opportunity to say yes or no. If you give up this opportunity, you will never have the opportunity in the future. These damn guys

But I will never give you a second chance, so you need to grasp everything well, otherwise, you will really regret it. The other people in the team have basically entered a state of trance at this time.

Yes, I must not talk too much about such a thing. If these guys remember this, it will be my own business when I go back in the future. It is absolutely not allowed. It is all the fault of the Duke. Follow us.

But it doesn't matter.

An hour later, the "Friendship Agreement between the Cao Family Trading Company and the Northern Empire" was signed. Although the signer was a Duke of the Northern Empire, this guy was carrying the seal of the Northern Empire and was an imperial envoy of a dynasty in this era.

They always carry the imperial seal with them. They had this habit in the past. What is better here than the feudal dynasties on earth is that they respect the spirit of contract very much. For them, as long as it is

After signing, even His Majesty the Emperor needs to abide by it. The last time the people of the Cao Family Trading Company went to war with the Southern Empire. The people of the Southern Empire tore up the contract and immediately wanted to seize the properties of the Cao Family Trading Company. At that time, the other three major

People in the empire hate this very much, even if they are enemies. But as long as you have a contract in your hands, you can't do that. Now that the Southern Empire has calmed down, except for the punishment given to them by the people of the Cao Family Trading Company

, there are many other punishments. One of them is this one. As long as businessmen from other countries deal with people from the Southern Empire, their money is fully paid, and there is absolutely no debt.

You must know that in business operation, debt is also a method. If a person does not have any debt, it is absolutely impossible to do big business. He can only do some business within his own scope. This way

Things are not very comfortable for anyone. They all understand this very well. The people of the Southern Empire also feel very strange about the court's approach. The court of the Southern Empire thought that it was absolutely impossible.

He would have defeated the Cao Family Trading Company, but in the end he was defeated by them. Not only did he not get any benefits, but he directly became a subsidiary of the Cao Family Trading Company. Such a thing made the other three empires also

See, the Cao Family Trading Company is really capable of starting a full-scale war with an empire. The Northern Empire now also thinks of the Southern Empire at that time. They definitely don’t want such a thing to happen. They just want to end this matter.

Yes, the contract is basically based on what Li Li said. The first clause is that the Northern Empire must apologize to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. Of course, this must be used as a benchmark. The people of the Northern Empire are not allowed to

The second one who resisted was that because of construction issues, the 10 southern counties and cities and 70 million people were to be handed over to the Cao Family Trading Company for "escrow management" for a period of 199 years. The third one was to follow the Western Empire in the future.

The goods exchange between the two countries must pass through the Cao Family Trading Company's checkpoint, and 5% of the total amount of goods is levied as a tax each time. Of course, the Cao Family Trading Company also has its own obligations, and any monsters or bandits among them will be wiped out.

, In fact, there is nothing left now. Their armies are all active in this generation. There are no Warcraft bandits coming out. Unless they are the kind of guys who don’t care about their lives, they will not appear. The fourth article is to compensate.

Cao's Commercial Bank's military expenditure of 10 billion silver, these are all necessary things. People in the Northern Empire also feel that this contract is very humiliating, but what other options can they have? Look at the artillery of Cao's Commercial Bank outside

, if I say no, it will probably be really troublesome in the end. Each of these people will be in trouble. I don’t know how to explain it when I go back. There must be someone there.

It is the law to be sacrificed.

Li Li didn't mean to keep them for dinner, but after all, these people helped him a lot. Treating others to dinner was very old-fashioned. When they went out, everyone had

They received a small gift for a room, which was not very valuable. It was less than three million silver per person. After they returned, they would all have to face the wrath of the Northern Empire court, especially the censors within the court. It could be said that

These people just have nothing to do when they are full, and they are dedicated to causing trouble. As long as these guys find some problems, they will call them out immediately. If they are really asked to do something, these people can't do anything. They

They just have a good tongue, and then they have to act in accordance with the laws of the empire and criticize other people. None of them know what is happening on the front line. If this continues, the rest of them will

But there is no way they will end up well. These people also know that what they do is not very authentic. They are quite notorious among officials, but there is no way. If they don’t do such things now, they will

It will be even more difficult at that time, and they have no choice. If they want to be promoted, they have to find other officials to deal with. This is an offending thing for other officials, and other people will definitely not do it.

They will do it. But they will never think so. They all know clearly that this is a channel for them to rise, and that must be done. The Duke and the others have no intention of being happy after receiving this gift.

, but no one returned this thing. It seems that they all think of their own empire in their hearts. In the past, they did not take away money from the Cao family business. According to the rules, when they arrived at the Duke

People of this level, no matter whether they are of use to the Cao family business or not, are given 200,000 silver in tribute every year. This is a matter of etiquette. There are more than 400 dukes in the Northern Empire. Just for such a face

The problem is that the Cao Family Trading Company earns nearly hundreds of millions of silver every year. This guy has been receiving tribute from the Cao Family Trading Bank for nearly five years. One million silver is not a big sum for him. But for him

For ordinary people, it is a sum that they will never get in a lifetime. He is very depressed now, and he has not received much benefit. He has accepted such an infamy. He really regrets that he did not tell Cao Cao at the beginning.

The people from the family business firm concluded a contract, and the losses may not have been so heavy at that time. The conditions offered that time were only half of what they were this time. If that were the case, I might not be as ugly as I am now when I go back, but these people

But they all have their own abilities. One of them said that the terms offered by Coibacao's firm were twice as high. When they got home, they argued with each other and finally got the current contract.

, If it weren’t for their contribution, I still don’t know how to solve this matter now. When the Duke heard that this person is simply a talent, how could there be such a powerful person? Why didn’t he hear about it? Hurry up.

I praised this guy. He is really good. I originally wanted to cause trouble for this guy. If this guy hadn't said that he wanted to give Cao's Trading Company a look, how could he have done it?

As for dragging, it seems that it is not needed now, which is not bad.

The war here is basically over. This matter was originally a dangerous matter for the Cao Family Trading Company, but now it is completely different. Now the Cao Family Trading Company's army has an absolute advantage.

For these people, there is nothing to consider now, but their enemies need to think about it. People from the four major empires and other large organizations are re-evaluating the war potential of the Cao Family Trading Company.

, In the past, we knew that the people from the Cao Family Trading Company had a great advantage in fighting in coastal areas, but now it seems that it is impossible. Sometimes these people think that way, as long as they catch

They thought they had taken advantage of the slight disadvantage of living in Cao's Trading Company. This time, they all saw clearly the gap between them and Cao's Trading Company. This was really big and they wanted to make up for it.

This gap is not that simple. They thought the giant crossbow was a sharp weapon against Cao's Trading Company before, but now it seems that this thing is of little use, because the people of Cao's Trading Company are already

Being able to deal with this thing means that it can bring some danger to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company at the beginning, but there will be no danger later. This kind of thing allows the people of the Cao Family Trading Company to find the key to defeat him.

They may need to research a more powerful weapon. These people were also surprised by the transportation capabilities of the Cao Family Trading Company. In the past, it would take at least twice as long to transport so many troops.

This must have happened in recent times. The last battle the Cao Family Trading Company fought in the capital of the Western Empire was so powerful. Now it is suddenly so powerful. This is simply impossible. In fact, it is all because of the airship.

Adopting a fully enclosed mode in the sky and carrying out propeller reforms, the current airship can almost reach a full load speed of 500km per hour. If it is empty, the speed will definitely be even faster, especially in war.

Morale, a lot of things can be done at such a speed. Just like now, if the Cao Family Trading Company's military reinforcements had not arrived so quickly this time, it is estimated that those people would not have been able to launch such a powerful counterattack one by one.

Well, these people also have their own ideas in their minds, and sometimes they do some good things. For example, now they have learned how to research, but in the end, everything about the enemy has been researched.

, but they don’t know how to deal with this matter. This is a very fatal matter. If you can know how to do this matter, it will be easier to handle. It is a pity that you don’t know how to do it now.

How to do it? What is the purpose of the research? Is there something wrong with your brain? It has cost a lot of money and energy to study this thing. Not only some people from the Ministry of War, but also some people from the Ministry of Military Affairs have begun to study this matter.

, they put down what they were doing, and finally found that they had researched a bunch of useless things. Of course, it can't be said that they were useless. At least it scared them all. This matter is a fact, of course.

Fortunately, this research result has not been released yet. If it were released, there would be some problems with this matter. It is estimated that the people of several major empires would start to panic.

Although the war was over, Li Yi did not relax at all. All the soldiers could have a good rest. Good wine and food were served, but these prisoners of war did not have such good things.

What people have to do is another thing, building some defensive measures on the spot, and at the same time, some materials coming from the headquarters are also needed in that row. Those things need people to do, and now this thing is also

It must be carried out, otherwise if the enemy launches a counterattack, oneself will also suffer a loss. Of course, this counterattack will not come easily.

The people of the Eastern Empire still have a fatal thing to do now, and that is what to do about those soldiers who are messing around in the Northern Empire. The Eastern Empire's mission has already begun to set off, and they must give the people of the Northern Empire

A reasonable explanation is enough, otherwise the people in the Northern Empire will go crazy. (To be continued...)
