Li Xiao glanced around and looked at the people whispering among each other, but he didn't feel ambitious at all.

Because, the lineup of this Western Alliance is not big enough, and Xiliang City is just a seven-party force.

Without taking Xiliang City into account, the total of these six kingdoms is not enough for Qingshui Kingdom to handle.

Li Xiao's goal is to bring all the sixty countries on the western border of Xiluzhou into the Western Alliance.

Although the territory of Xiluzhou is huge, the average number of people in each country is less than 40 million.

At present, Xiliang City has a population of 22 million, and with the addition of several million foreign residents, it is already considered a populous city.

However, compared with the southern region of Xia Kingdom, the population is less than one-tenth, and the territory of Xiliang City is at least ten times larger than that of the southern region.

Of course, in a bottleneck world, population is not the key, the key is the number of top powerhouses.

Excluding Shuiling Mountain, there is currently only one eight-level monk registered in Xiliang City, Xu Shaoqing, and none of the six-level and seven-level monks.

Su Tong, who has now entered the fifth realm, and Xiao Yuan, who is already at the peak of the fifth realm, can be said to be invincible existences in the current Xiliang City. Even the sand soldiers in the fourth realm can walk sideways.

The ranks of warriors can be cultivated over time. Xiliang City will definitely produce many warriors with fighting ability in the future.

But as a monk, unless your cultivation qualifications are extremely good, even to the point of going against the heavens, you can climb up the realm as time goes by.

Most of the high-level monks need to rely on money to reach their level.

It was Su Tong who guided her practice, but her climb from the fourth realm to the fifth realm cost her 10 million taels of silver, or a thousand spiritual crystal coins.

The higher the realm, the more natural materials and treasures are needed, and the price will naturally be more expensive.

Only by uniting the surrounding areas and developing the economy, and with money, can we gather groups of monks.

Now that he is fighting against the Sun family in the air, he will naturally show his determination to fight to the end.

Forming an alliance is the best way. If you fight alone, you will only dominate the mountain and become the king.

If you really want to dominate the Western Continent and conquer the Western Continent, you must unite and develop together.

The news of the establishment of the Western Alliance quickly spread to the entire Western Continent.

The country whose western boundary is relatively close to Xiliang City was originally intended to face the Zhou Kingdom in the east.

But they were made miserable by the commercial salt smuggled in from their own country.

Although some countries have issued express policies prohibiting their own purchases of commercial salt from Xiliang City, if Li Xiao expected it to be normal, there would be no way to prevent it.

As a result, the price conflict between the Sun family's salt and the salt in Xiliang City caused the Sun family's salt they purchased domestically to become hoarded goods and could not be sold at all.

There are lower-priced and better-quality salts, so a fool would pay a high price for your Sun family's inferior table salt.

In this way, it will be these countries that do not join the alliance that suffer.

Without the terms of cooperation between the two parties, Xiliang City made a lot of money.

These countries were forced to have no choice but to jointly declare to join the Western Alliance and become a member of the Western Alliance.

In less than half a month, the number of members of the Western Alliance increased to thirty.

One month later, the number of members of the Western Alliance increased to fifty-nine. Except for the Qingshui Kingdom, which has been working closely with Xiliang City but has not joined the Western Alliance, all the large and small forces in the western border have become members of the Western Alliance.

Even some countries that are not within the scope of the Western Alliance have the idea of ​​joining the Western Alliance.

The merchant salt in Xiliang City has completely dominated the entire west market within this month. Coupled with the influence of smuggled salt flowing into the east, the Sun family's income has dropped by one-third.

Every member state of the Western Alliance has benefited from various benefits brought by the alliance. Cao Yun added more than 30 new ferries on the western border.

Those businessmen who had the idea of ​​​​salt from the beginning grew into well-known wealthy businessmen in Xiliang City within a month.

The benefits brought by the ferry go far beyond the rapid circulation of salt, and have other impacts as well.

Specialties from each country flowed into each member country at a rapid rate. The Western Union's economy grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, development soon reached a bottleneck.

Because within the Western Union, the total amount of wealth is not growing very fast, because money flows back and forth within the Western Union.

It's just that the originally relatively concentrated wealth has flowed into the hands of more people.

Li Xiao came to the warehouse and was stunned as he faced the mountains of spiritual crystals that had already piled up.

If these spiritual crystals cannot be turned into spiritual crystal money, the upper limit of the Western Alliance will not be too high.

"How can this thing be turned into spiritual crystal money? Doesn't it have to be an alchemist?" Li Xiao raised his hand and touched his chin, thinking to himself.

Yao Yan asked Li Xiao to find an alchemist, but he still hasn't received a reply from him. This shows how difficult it is to find a magician who can make spiritual crystal coins.

"Boss, are these gadgets that are everywhere in the Far North Continent really so precious? The cost of each transportation is greater than salt. Why don't we stop it first? After all, there are so many." Little Pepper next to him suggested.

Xiaojiao also knows how precious spiritual crystal money is, but without a way to make money, these spiritual crystals are just like waste.

It is impossible for Xiliang City to sell these spiritual crystals. Once the news is revealed, Xiliang City will really be targeted by superpowers, and Xiao Laojiao will also know this very well.

At this time, Mei Yaweng came out of the Qi Yang Gourd.

"It turns out that the young master has been looking sad recently because of this incident." Maya Weng said.
