Lyu added:
"Of course, this doesn't involve much power from the Sherman Empire. They are still somewhat arrogant, having inseparable connections."
Yang Ming sat back in his chair, gently exhaled: "Why did they start targeting Wind directly? Logically, even if they noticed something wrong with Wind, shouldn't they first warn them and then take action? Wind has paid the Sherman so much money over the years, fattening up so many people in the Empire..."
"We might have misjudged the Empire's attitude towards the vassal states. But now the situation is as it is, boss, we can only respond strategically, give Wind more time to develop."
Yang Ming squinted slightly: "Do you think if the Old Emperor suddenly passes away, Sherman would fall into chaos?"
"No, boss, don't entertain such thoughts. The Sherman family is controlling things from behind the scenes."
