Here it comes!

The classic way to meet is to share half of the meeting.

Lin Yue looked at her younger sister, wondering if she had heard these words somewhere before. Oh, no, back then she couldn't speak yet...

But there was something vaguely familiar about it.

Of course, the specific details cannot be discussed in this messy place; they must be brought to the negotiating table.

Having shed his "giant form," Song Ziyou had changed his clothes and was now carefully scrutinizing the two sisters before him.

He hadn't had much contact with either the current "Spark" or the previous "Spark," but today's personal experience showed him that it was indeed a rising star in Sin City that should not be underestimated.

At least he had to admit that these two sisters were really capable in terms of strength and courage... It's not shameful to be the last one standing; in gang warfare, any trick is harmless, but it's truly shameful to be the last one standing.

But half of the tenth district...?

To be honest, Song Ziyou could also see that "Spark" didn't have much intention of making enemies with him. On the contrary, it was more willing to befriend him. Otherwise, why would it have just killed Chu Cuicheng and left itself behind? Wouldn't it have been better to go all out and cause chaos?

Even those "White Iron" members, they didn't do anything, they just controlled the rebels, and didn't kill them much.

This already says a lot; at the very least, it's a bargaining chip they can use to maneuver.

If that's the case, given Song Ziyou's personality, taking a step back wouldn't be a problem. After all, "Spark" can't be extinguished so easily; leaving a way out is always better than tearing off all pretenses.

However, there's another layer to this: the "Prism"... Successfully taking over the tenth district is enough to prove myself to Xie Qingyan, and I'm bound to gain even more afterward.

But if it's only half, hmm...

Is there any way to negotiate?

Undeterred, he asked, "For example, besides territory, you probably need something else, right? Perhaps..."

"Of course, the territory is the best."

Lin Xing interrupted him, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime, right, Chief Song?"

Resources alone are certainly not enough; even the largest quantities will eventually run out. However, by maintaining control of territory, whether through production or by leveraging one's expanding influence to acquire resources, a continuous supply of supplies can be obtained.

“If we offered to exchange resources for territory with Chief Song, you wouldn’t agree, would you?”

"...Don't forget, your 'Spark' is no match for 'Ironclad'."

Upon hearing this, Song Ziyou was also somewhat displeased and said with a dark face.

"That's what Ding Jun, the leader of the 'Long Knife Gang,' said before."

Lin Xing squinted and smiled, "I admit we took some shortcuts this time, but the situation is also in our favor... Or is Chief Song trying to put up a tug-of-war with us? If so, we'll play along."

Lin Yue wanted to say something in agreement, but couldn't find the words, so she simply put the dagger on the table and stared at Song Ziyou with her sister.

"..."

Song Ziyou curled his lip, "Damn it, these two tiger women are no match for me!"

However, it's true that the situation is more favorable to them. To put it simply, the people of "Spark" are all strong and energetic, while the people of "White Iron" are exhausted... They themselves are not in good condition either, and they may not be a match for the two in front of them if they fight.

On a larger scale, he didn't want to see another round of gang warfare, especially since the "Angry Wolf" gang seemed to prefer "Spark" over "White Iron." Even if they could forcibly take over the entire tenth district, there would still be many hidden dangers in the future.

Tsk.

"...What else can I say?"

After weighing the options, he could only helplessly find a way out for himself: "It was my lack of preparation that allowed you to take advantage of the situation... Fine, we'll do as you say."

"Okay, then I'll have to rely on Chief Song a lot from now on?"

Lin Yue and Lin Xing exchanged a glance, and their mood relaxed.

The annexation of the tenth district was thus concluded, with "Spark" and "Iron" each holding half.

Upon hearing this news, Ding Jun, who was far away in the Seventh District, felt as if his heart was bleeding.

If someone like "Spark" can eat half of it, you might be able to get even more if it were you.

Unfortunately, this was Xu Shi's idea, and he could only reluctantly accept it.

And then I thought about it again, I had negotiated with Lin Yue and Lin Xing before, and in the end I had to give up half of the Sixth District... This seems to be similar to Song Ziyou's experience.

The difference is that you are acting, while the other person is acting for real.

Thinking about it this way, he felt much better. At least it showed that Song Ziyou was a top-tier piece of trash. How could the minting bar be so incompetent that it could actually be controlled by a second-rate gang?

Roar! Roar! Roar!

But what he didn't know was that Song Ziyou had the same thought. It seemed that the man surnamed Ding had also gone through this, so... it's not shameful, um, it's not shameful.

...

"So, we've... succeeded again?"

Looking at the documents and materials in front of her that needed to be handed over, Lin Yue was momentarily dazed.

Anyway, she always felt a bit unreal, as if she had unknowingly done something amazing again.

"Yes, congratulations, sister."

Lin Xing smiled happily, "If we're just talking about territories of influence, then my sister will be one of the regional leaders in the future."

Moreover, they are more prestigious regional leaders—in the past, there were four people in Sin City who reached this level: Zhang Shijun, Ding Jun, Song Ziyou, and Chu Cuicheng, but now there are three.

Most importantly, Lin Yue personally dealt with the two who disappeared, both in a broad sense and in a narrow physical sense.
