After recovering from the fever during the battle, Lu Chen's intelligence recovered slightly. Therefore, without Ji Hongdie's explanation, Lu Chen guessed the purpose of those people's visit.
In response, Ji Hongdie nodded slightly: "Your Excellency, they are indeed here to seek refuge. This is a gift from the people of Yunzhou."
The only ones who sent the gift list were the Yunzhou people, and from the barbarian side, Lu Chen not only couldn't harvest anything, but also had to give them a lot of things.
There was no way, the barbarians who arrived were all ready to take refuge with Lu Chen. Facing those people who were working for him, Lu Chen could only spend money to support them.
While Lu Chen was looking at the gift list, Ji Hongdie also said: "Sir, I have seen the sons of the leader who came here, and they are all acceptable. As for Yunzhou, these
Some of them are very sincere..."
Ji Hongdie wanted to give Lu Chen some advice, but Lu Chen interrupted her with a wave of his hand.
Such behavior made Ji Hongdie's face darken: "Your Highness still doesn't believe me."
However, Ji Hongdie, who was thinking this way, immediately raised her head in shock. What Lu Chen said next completely shocked her.
"From now on, just report the results to me on these trivial matters. You can handle the rest by yourself."
Such words made Ji Hongdie ecstatic at first, but then, she didn't know what she thought of, and she knelt down directly on the ground: "Sir, I'm just helping you analyze, everything still depends on your decision."
Looking at Ji Hongdie who was kneeling on the ground, Lu Chen, whose IQ had recovered slightly, shook his head: "Don't think that I am so bad. I will tell you what I want to do directly, but I will not test you like this."
"These things are just trivial matters to me. I don't like to deal with these things. I will go to rest after meeting some of the leaders' sons. Please help me entertain these people."
When she realized that Lu Chen didn't seem to be sarcastic and actually left those "trivial matters" to himself, Ji Hongdie's face blossomed with joy.
Isn't it just for these things that she has been trying to please Lu Chen? Those are not "trivial matters", but rights.
Ji Hongdie, who accepted Lu Chen's assignment, could accept gifts from some people or reject gifts from some people. With the right to choose, there was room for manipulation.
If she can't deal with Ji Hongdie, she can cause great losses to those people with just a slight deviation.
At the same time, having her come forward to recruit those subordinates can also help her win the favor of those being recruited.
It can be said that this right of choice was absolutely impossible for the emperor to give up in ancient China.
But this is not the ancient Celestial Dynasty, but the age of gods where great power belongs to themselves. In this world, power and wealth are good, but the most important thing is personal force.
Therefore, Lu Chen will not let other trivial matters affect his improvement.
"So what if I leave it to Ji Hongdie? If she dares to rebel, I can kill all the subordinates she relies on."
"From now on, let Hongdie help me handle external affairs, and leave all the internal affairs at home to Xiaowei."
Compared to Ji Hongdie, Lu Chen trusted Xiaowei more, and the reason why he gave Ji Hongdie a lot of power was because of her strong ability.
But in terms of housework, it doesn't take much ability to manage it well, so Lu Chen can rest assured and leave it to Xiaowei.
With his mind settled, Lu Chen entered the room directly. As Lu Chen entered the room, the Yunzhou people and barbarians who had been waiting in the room all stood up.
"Welcome to Your Highness the Prince."
"Everyone, please sit down."
After arriving at the main seat and sitting down, Lu Chen waved his hand and asked the others to sit down as well. Then, he took the lead in looking at the Yunzhou people.
Without Lu Chen opening his mouth, several eye-catching Yunzhou people stood up and congratulated Lu Chen: "Congratulations to His Highness the Prince for his invincible victory. Your Highness the Prince's grace today has made us admire him very much. I don't know why."
Please forgive me for coming."
"Easy to say."
During the ensuing conversation, Lu Chen gestured to Ji Hongdie and asked him to speak.
"My lords, my husband has prepared the banquet, please wait a moment..."
With Ji Hongdie's contact, the scene at this time was quite lively.
Of course, Lu Chen did not treat the barbarians badly who were ready to take refuge.
The barbarians who could enter the prince's mansion were all the sons of the leader. A total of ten came this time. What made Lu Chen funny was that most of the sons of the leader who arrived were defeated by him.
"Since it's them, it's easy to handle. If they were defeated by me, they should be more obedient than others."
Of course, even if this was the case, Lu Chen still did not treat them badly.
However, there was no need to talk nonsense to them. Under Lu Chen's instructions, good wine and meat were quickly served.
While drinking and eating meat, the barbarian's mood gradually improved.
However, Lu Chen also discovered that although the son of the barbarian leader and the Yunzhou merchant sat together because of Lu Chen, the two parties barely spoke.
In this regard, Lu Chen had no idea of bringing bridges.
"The people of Yunzhou must cooperate. After the exchange match with Yunzhou, I will go out to the royal court to expand my territory, but two things are indispensable for the expansion of the territory, one is people and the other is materials."
"People are easy to find. There are refugees everywhere outside the royal court, and the villages that can still survive are harassed by evil spirits every day. As long as I am willing to protect such a village, I can gain their allegiance."
"It's just that people are easy to find, but supplies are hard to find."
"If these Yunzhou people are willing to invest in me, I can cooperate with them. However, the cooperation must be led by me. As for other barbarians, they only need to exchange Yunzhou supplies from me."
Lu Chen planned to monopolize the material cooperation with Yunzhou, and Ji Hongdie also had the same idea as Lu Chen. Therefore, when the Yunzhou people and the barbarians were clearly separated, neither of them had the idea of matchmaking.
At the same time, although the Yunzhou people did not talk to the leader's son, their conversation with Lu Chen was quite entertaining.
The Yunzhou people value Lu Chen's potential, and Lu Chen values the Yunzhou people's materials. Both parties have the intention to cooperate, so this gathering is of course relaxed.
When the moon was halfway up, Lu Chen also spoke directly: "I am very grateful to you for supporting me. When my territory is established, the output of the territory will be sold by you. However, my territory has not been established yet.
, need some supplies..."
Lu Chen didn't say the rest, but others also understood what Lu Chen meant.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, as long as His Highness gives us the output of the territory for sale, we will fully assist you with the initial supplies."
Investing in a prince does not mean you can gain something until the prince becomes a king.
If the prince is good enough, he can build a large tribe while the barbarian king is still there.
And such a large tribe would have many products unique to the wilderness.
As long as you pay a little attention to the ancient borders, you will understand one thing, that is, if border transactions were monopolized, huge profits would be obtained by relying on buying and selling.
