Chapter 260 The actors must be in place
After returning to Baiyujing, Lu Changjing immediately rectified the Ningshan Trade and Ninghei Trade, and no longer only sold daily necessities to the mountain barbarians and the Heili Dynasty.
In addition to daily necessities, he also sold a large number of rare treasures, elixirs, and martial arts secrets to the mountain barbarians and the Heili Dynasty, and he deliberately made a huge fuss so that almost everyone knew about it.
But secretly, these strategic resources that were sold were basically bought by the Mountain Barbarian King and the Black Demon Queen.
These two guys are Lu Changjing's servants. There is no difference between the things in their hands and in Lu Changjing's hands. Naturally, they return to him without paying any price, and he can make more money than before.
Such an action was naturally to respond to the surveillance of the three great divine dynasties. Before taking down Ju Ye, Lu Changjing had not thought that the three great divine dynasties would pay such attention to Daning.
I originally thought that after tens of thousands of years, the three great dynasties and various major forces had almost squeezed the Ning family out of their wits, and they should no longer pay much attention to them.
After all, the Ning family today can’t even produce gods and demons, and the number of royal family members is getting smaller and smaller, so there is almost no need to pursue it further.
However, he did not expect that the three great divine dynasties were still so concerned about the Ning family, and even sent special envoys to suppress and restrict them. This forced Lu Changjing to be more careful when doing things.
In this case, then we should put on a good show for them, building a false front while secretly attacking Chencang, so as to avoid attracting targeting from the three great divine dynasties. With the current size of Daning, it cannot withstand such suppression.
However, the exchange of officials is still continuing, but on the surface, the Shanman tribe and the Heili Dynasty are sending more officials to the Daning Dynasty, with the implicit intention of swallowing up the territory of Daning.
At the same time, Ju Ye also spoke out, saying that all this was his doing, and his purpose was to suppress the Daning Dynasty to prevent them from continuing to expand.
Although this matter was spoken in private and seemed unintentional, it spread extremely quickly and soon many dynasties and imperial courts knew about it. Even the envoys from the other two divine dynasties received the news.
The vigilance aroused by the mutual trade and the exchange of officials, coupled with the fact that Daning had fought wars everywhere and won all of them some time ago, had already made the other two great dynasties ready to act.
Seeing that Ju Ye had already taken action, the other two divine dynasties stopped their attacks and expressed their gratitude to Ju Ye in private, which saved them the trouble of taking action.
Daning has indeed been a bit high-profile in recent years. Fortunately, Lu Changjing discovered it in time, otherwise there would be trouble later.
Even if he could escape at that time, what about his loved ones who stayed in Daning, as well as their relatives and friends? He couldn't just watch them suffer here, or even suffer a devastating disaster.
Some people may say that if this is the case, Lu Changjing is also a mid-level god or demon, so why not develop in another place, so as to avoid being coveted by the three major divine dynasties and save a lot of trouble and threats.
But the same thing goes, Lu Changjing can run away by himself, but what about the people around him? He can't take them and their families with him.
Even if they could leave, what would happen to the resources and treasures left behind by the Ning family? Lu Changjing knew clearly from Ning Yuzhi and Ning Yucheng that even though the Ning family had been suppressed for tens of thousands of years, they still passed down a lot of good things.
The Imperial Divine Art System, the Soul-Picking Secret Scripture, the Yang-Cangling Art...these are all clear evidence.
Besides, who can confirm whether the Ning family has hidden other treasures besides the intermediate divine weapons, intermediate divine pills and medicines, and various auxiliary divine objects mentioned by Ning Yuzhi and Ning Yucheng?
Maybe there are high-level artifacts, or even top-level artifacts, or other divine skills and divine resources. Even the three major divine dynasties are coveting the Ning family, not to mention Lu Changjing, an ordinary mid-level god and demon who is a million miles away from the three major divine dynasties.
So he was also coveting it, and he also wanted to get other magical artifacts passed down by the Ning family.
Since I have traveled here and become Ning Zhongyu's substitute, and now I am about to replace him, how can I not seize this opportunity?
Besides, his loves are all here, so Lu Changjing will not leave easily unless he has to, even if it requires more time and energy.
But compared with the potential benefits, this little effort is nothing.
Then he might as well stay here and make more disguises. After all, he has the cooperation of the Mountain Barbarian King and the Black Demon Queen. Not only will he not suffer any loss, but he will be able to gain more benefits.
The act of sending officials to each other seemed to be a disadvantage for Daning, but secretly these officials from the mountain barbarians and the Heili Dynasty were being quietly assimilated into Daning's system and culture.
When the assimilation is almost complete and we return to the Shanman tribe, we will be able to help them improve the Shanman tribe and make them lean towards Daning.
When the subsequent opportunity comes, it will be easy to take it down and integrate it into Daning.
Assimilation requires a process, which is impossible without more than several decades, and may even take decades or even hundreds of years.
Such a long time is enough for Lu Changjing to improve his cultivation level to the point where he is not afraid of the three great divine dynasties. At that time, he can then take down these dynasties and empires that have been assimilated by Daning and make them a part of himself.
Before that, you can also quietly plunder its resources and treasures to become the resources for strengthening yourself, so there will be no waste of time and energy.
At most, they just need to put on a show to make the three great divine dynasties think that Daning is still being suppressed and has no possibility of rising up. Only in this way will they not do anything to Daning.
Moreover, even if Da Ning was exposed, Lu Changjing still had the Ning family as a shield. At that time, he would push the Ning family to the front, escape himself, and flee with his lovers, away from this place of trouble.
We can attack when we advance and defend when we retreat, and we are basically invincible.
Thinking of this, Lu Changjing smiled slightly, thinking that since the Shanman tribe and the Heili Dynasty had begun to bully the Daning Dynasty under Ju Ye's instructions, there was no reason why the Great Jin Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty would not do the same.
As for the Universal Dynasty and the Sakura natives, they should also do something, otherwise it would be too fake.
So after some consideration, in order to make these forces cooperate better, Lu Changjing decisively spent some time to visit the capitals of the Great Jin Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty and captured the old Khan of the Great Jin Dynasty and the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
Now that the performance has begun, all the actors have to be in place. It can't be just the male and female protagonists, there needs to be some supporting roles to set off the performance, otherwise it would be too monotonous and too fake.
Ju Ye is the protagonist, and many dynasties and imperial powers are naturally supporting roles.
