Another week has passed.

On April 8th.

In the Dragon Clan Temple, eight Dragon Clan elders came together to make a request to the Dragon Clan leader Nozholm.

Cooperate with the Gold and Silver Chamber of Commerce under the Magic Association and ask dragons from various tribes on Dragon Island to serve as the "financial custody consultant" of the chamber of commerce.

And gave sufficient reasons for cooperation.

"Clan leader, cooperating with the Jinyintong Chamber of Commerce will be beneficial to the Dragon Clan. We can control a large amount of treasures without leaving Dragon Island."

"Patriarch, I heard that humans have entered the era of digital payment and paper money payment. They no longer need gold and silver treasures. The situation on the mainland is now turbulent. Putting the treasures on Dragon Island for safekeeping is indeed a good way to maintain the stability of the mainland. By means of this, we, the Dragon Clan, have also made our contribution to the financial security of mankind."

"As for the remuneration, it is quite considerable. The annual storage fee is one ten thousandth. If the storage time reaches ten thousand years, all the treasures will belong to us!"

"The patriarch is worried that the Magic Association will suddenly transport the treasure back? No, it is basically impossible. If the war continues to expand, human nobles and rich people will find ways to store gold and silver treasures in the Gold and Silver Trade Association to ensure that Property security.”

"If the war ends and we win, those gold and silver treasures will not be shipped back. Human beings have become accustomed to digital payments and paper currency payments, and it is impossible to accept heavy gold coins."

"So this cooperation is a hugely profitable cooperation for the Dragon Clan!"

"Clan leader, I think we can agree!"

In the main hall, all the dragon clan elders expressed their opinions one after another.

this……

The leader of the Dragon Clan, Nozholm, who was sitting at the top, pondered for a long time.

a long time.

He said in a deep voice: "The human race has always been insidious and cunning. The sweeter the bait they release, the bigger the trap behind it must be. This cooperation seems to be good for the dragon race, but if there is any fraud in it, how do you know?"

"To be on the safe side, it's better not to cooperate with humans."

Nozholm is still very wary of humans. After all, whether in the eyes of the elves or the dragons, the reason why humans can become the overlord of the land is because of their cunning and cunning, and all kinds of vicious and sinister tricks... If Without human nature being cunning, it would be impossible to become a land hegemon.

Therefore, if you don’t want to be deceived when dealing with humans, it is best to close the door to cooperation and avoid any contact to avoid heavy losses.

Obviously this idea is extremely conservative, and what time is it now? The most dangerous time in the magical world! Is it really appropriate to continue to adopt a non-contact and non-cooperative attitude towards human beings?

Can this form a united front?

Then the dragon clan elders spoke one after another, listing various reasons to persuade the clan leader.

These reasons are actually very reasonable and very persuasive, and even refute all the views of the patriarch Nozholm until he has nothing to say, but...

Nozholm still objects!

Firmly oppose!

"If other cooperation is possible, this kind of cooperation is definitely not possible!"

"Isn't it bad enough for the gold and silver treasures to harm our dragon clan? How many descendants of the dragon clan have been killed for plundering treasures? How many dragon clans have been killed for collecting too much treasure in the cave?"

"As long as the dragon clan has anything to do with treasure, it will never end well!"

"The greed attached to treasure is the fundamental reason why the Dragon Clan is in this situation!"

"If the Dragon Clan was only powerful but had no wealth, the Dragon Clan would have already ruled the world!"

"I will never let the treasure lead every member of the Dragon Clan to evil again! I will not let any Dragon Clan indulge in collecting treasures and wallowing in treasures to spend their days in vain and gain nothing!"

"I don't agree with this cooperation!"

Nozholm had a tough attitude and said with some excitement.

The dragon clan elders were silent for a few seconds and looked at each other.

It's this argument again that "treasure harms dragons" and "dragons can be truly powerful without treasure"... Each of their dragons has heard it at least 800 times.

If it were in the past, they would have thought that the patriarch was upright and upright, and that the patriarch's sincere words were reasonable. In a sense, Cai Bao had indeed brought misery to the Dragon Clan, but was it really only because of Cai Bao that the Dragon Clan had become so mixed up today? ?

"Chief, I think what you said is wrong..."

The green dragon Malygos stood up. Based on the theory Zhou Ming taught him, he conducted an in-depth analysis from multiple aspects such as population size, resource utilization, and social management. He spent about 40 minutes talking about eight key points. , systematically expounded the reasons why the Dragon Clan declined.

Finally, he concluded: "The decline of the dragon clan is inevitable and certain. Our creativity, organizational ability, tool manufacturing ability, fertility, and even cultural creativity... are not as good as humans in eight aspects, and there are serious problems in them." Shortcomings! Human beings are indeed the chosen race of gods, and they have all the conditions to dominate the continent. However, although our dragon race is very powerful individually, we have many flaws, some of which are fatal. "

"I don't deny that the Dragon Clan's pursuit and preference for treasure is part of the reason for the Dragon Clan's decline, but it is by no means the main reason!"

"The main reason is that our huge bodies are not small and flexible enough, and our poor creativity has allowed us to live in caves for hundreds of millions of years, but humans have built countless palaces and established countless empires..."

"Even though our dragon clan is at the top of the world, we are only at the top in terms of strength. In terms of numbers, we are at an absolute disadvantage compared to humans!"

"According to the wooden barrel theory, taking the stored water as strength, the water that dragons can hold is far less than what humans can hold... Human beings' various abilities are more balanced than all intelligent races."

"So compared with humans, a large number of shortcomings are the root cause of the dragon clan's weakness."

As soon as Malygos finished speaking, the other seven elders beside him nodded in agreement.

Patriarch Nozholm's expression was extremely ugly. If he had any skin color, it would be a very ugly pig liver color at this moment.

I felt speechless again.

After all, every point Malygos talked about really touched on the pain point, proving that "treasure" is not the source of harm to the dragon clan.

Nozholm didn't expect that Malygos, who only knew how to talk and spoke without any level or nutrition, could actually say so many reasonable things.

He was speechless and very shameless.

But he just doesn’t want to cooperate with humans!

His intuition told him that premature contact with humans would not be a good thing for the Dragon Clan!

What's more, isn't cooperation with the Gold and Silver Trade Association equivalent to cooperation with the Magic Association?

His parents both died at the hands of the Magic Association... Even though he was fashionable and young, the scene where his parents said goodbye to him for the last time during that war was something he would never forget.

So after a while of silence.

"I do not agree to this cooperation."

"If any of you dare to contact or cooperate with humans privately, and I find out, you will be severely punished!"

"My words are here, do you understand what to do?"

Nozholm said coldly, he was not a fool, how could he not see the real trick of these eight elders working together?

"Clan leader!"

cried Malygos and the other dragons.

"Stop talking and get out of here!" Nozholm waved his claws, telling the dragons to retreat.

However, Malygos took out a black box-shaped audio device from the space ring and said, "Chief, I have a recording here. After you listen to it, you will definitely agree to our request."

After saying that, he ignored the clan leader who was on the verge of rage and pressed the switch of the stereo.
