“Indeed, that’s correct. The people here truly depend on the Dragon Vein to survive. Since I’m taking the Dragon Vein, I will naturally bear the corresponding responsibility and help them maintain their livelihood.
Whether it’s relocating them to new land and granting them substantial wealth, or continuing to transform this environment to create a pure paradise for them, I will strive to achieve it.” Uchiha Tenxiu said with a resolute tone.
His gaze was frank and sincere, making it impossible to doubt his promise, and even the Queen before him was quite satisfied.
Then, he turned to the Queen of LouLan, and said with a smile, “As for preserving the nation of LouLan, please rest assured.
If given the opportunity, I am even more eager than you to work towards this goal.
In today’s Ninja World, technology is advancing rapidly, and even if this land loses the Dragon Vein’s transformative power, technology is fully capable of replacing it.
I will dispatch the top scientists from Great Zhou to assist you in a joint exploration, and I believe that by then, we will surely find a way to ensure the continuation of life here and guarantee the preservation of the land of LouLan.”
Uchiha Tenxiu’s words were full of confidence and determination; he seemed to have complete assurance in his abilities.
Facing the two conditions proposed by the Queen of LouLan, he did not hesitate at all and readily agreed.
In fact, even if the Queen of LouLan hadn’t made these requests, for Uchiha Tenxiu, who lacked population, these people were a resource he would absolutely not let go of.
Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, he could not only fulfill the Queen of LouLan’s expectations but also achieve his own goals, killing two birds with one stone.
Moreover, compared to relocating them to his Great Zhou territory, LouLan’s location in the southwesternmost part of the Ninja World continent was simply perfect!
It could completely be used as an excellent invasion point, located in a desert area, which could prevent outsiders from gathering intelligence.
It could also be intentionally exposed to the outside world as a noticeable target during an invasion of the Ninja World, leading the people of the Ninja World to believe that his main base was in the LouLan area.
This way.
Even if people from the Ninja World wanted to invade his territory, they would have to cross a vast desert, blocking ninety percent of them for him, which would be enough for him to set up various defenses and counterattacks.
Not to mention, for other major nations in the Ninja World, this vast and boundless desert was undoubtedly a barren and desolate land with no practical value.
However, for Uchiha Tenxiu, it was a land brimming with endless resources, its potential simply immeasurable!
Leaving aside those rare mineral resources like gold, silver, copper, and iron, even the most common sand contained immense wealth.
This sand could not only be used in construction, glass manufacturing, and other industries but also be transformed into high-value materials through special processing techniques.
Furthermore, there might be undiscovered oil resources hidden in the desert, which would undoubtedly be a huge fortune.
Unfortunately, the people here were short-sighted, only knowing how to burn, kill, and plunder, yet they never truly valued the immense potential contained within the land beneath their feet.
Their understanding of this desert was merely superficial; they did not realize the endless wealth hidden within it.
Because of this, they fell into a vicious cycle: due to resource scarcity and difficult lives, they could only sustain themselves through plunder; and this plundering further destroyed the local ecological environment, making living conditions even worse, ultimately leading them to find no hope for survival.
However, Uchiha Tenxiu would never be as foolish as others in the Ninja World.
He possessed wisdom and insight beyond ordinary people, allowing him to see the immense value behind this desert.
Uchiha Tenxiu knew that as long as this land was reasonably developed and utilized, countless wealth and opportunities could be created.
“I wouldn’t be as brain-dead as these natives, doing such foolish things, and it’s precisely because these natives are so brain-dead that this wealth belongs only to me!” Uchiha Tenxiu couldn’t help but think to himself.
Meanwhile, seeing Uchiha Tenxiu so readily agree to her first two requests, the Queen of LouLan felt an indescribable satisfaction welling up in her heart.
With a slight smile, she nodded gently, then took a deep breath and began to state her final request.
However, as she mentioned this request, a hint of embarrassment appeared on her face, as if it was difficult to articulate.
But she still gathered her courage and slowly said, “This third request, in fact, is a bit of my personal desire as Queen.
I hope… that in the future, you will marry a woman from the LouLan royal family.”
At this point, the Queen of LouLan paused slightly, observing Uchiha Tenxiu’s reaction.
Then, she continued to explain, “This way, even if our LouLan royal family loses the power of the Dragon Vein, we can still continue to live in prosperity.
After all, for thousands of years, our royal family has relied on the power of the Dragon Vein, and our survival capabilities in other aspects are relatively weaker.”
After saying this, the Queen of LouLan’s gaze fell upon Uchiha Tenxiu again, with a hint of expectation and earnestness in her eyes.
She then added, “Moreover, regarding your future marriage to a LouLan woman, it was actually an inspiration given to me by the Spirit of the Dragon Vein; my bringing it up is merely to confirm these things.”
Finally, the Queen of LouLan gazed at Uchiha Tenxiu as still as a sculpture, as if time had frozen at that moment, waiting for his response.
And Uchiha Chiri, standing by, narrowed her eyes into a slit, secretly thinking, “Another one. Why hasn’t it been my turn yet? No, I must take the initiative!”
Thinking of Uchiha Tenxiu’s two existing fiancées, and that towering, large-breasted female guard, and now one more, Uchiha Chiri’s heart felt as if it were being scratched by a cat’s claws, and she began to feel uncontrollably anxious.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Tenxiu’s answer came without the slightest hesitation, ringing out like a great bell: “No problem, I agree to this third request! This way, we can trust each other! This is beneficial for both of us!”
Uchiha Tenxiu did not mind using his marriage to win over others; after all, for such an important treaty, how could one easily gain the trust of others with mere verbal agreements?
Marriage alliance is not only beneficial to both parties but also a win-win strategy.
And he himself could better gain the support of the LouLan people.
What’s more.
His first marriage alliance gained him the full support of the Leimen elder, and the hundreds of billions he accumulated all became the financial source for his development of Great Zhou, as well as a large number of loyal subordinates, which could maintain the stability of his power.
Once this marriage alliance is settled.
It is likely that LouLan will sincerely hand over the Dragon Vein, and he won’t have to worry about them secretly making any small moves.
This way, the LouLan Queen’s lineage, a race that has a special use of the Dragon Vein, can also be utilized by him.
Not to mention, the other party’s family comes with tens of thousands of people, a natural dowry, which will greatly assist him in his conquest of the Ninja World.
What is there to hesitate about?
It was only at this point that Uchiha Tenxiu couldn’t help but secretly think, “How is it that my two biggest gains have both come from marrying women! Oh no, could it be that this will happen again in the future? If I continue to acquire land through such marriage alliances, won’t I become the ‘Lower Body Emperor’ of the Ninja World? Wouldn’t that sound bad…”
Uchiha Tenxiu couldn’t help but feel a bit speechless, but then he thought about it, and it seemed to be somewhat legitimate after all.
Who said women couldn’t inherit the title of Daimyo?
So if I marry a female Daimyo, and she uses her own land as a dowry, wouldn’t that country directly belong to me?
Isn’t this very reasonable?
“Hmm, later, I’ll have Akalie send people to investigate if the Daimyo of You Country has a daughter! If so, then let the old man retire! As for the country, my wife can take care of it!” Uchiha Tenxiu’s eyes lit up as if he had figured something out, completely unconcerned about having more women.
Essentially, Uchiha Tenxiu himself was a person with a cold disposition; apart from the two women who had accompanied him for many years for whom he still felt some emotion, he didn’t care if everyone else in the Ninja World died.
