And if Lu Chen became the Barbarian King, they would be like the Ji family, rising from a small family to an important figure in the face of a King.
Of course, all of this would depend on the Prince they invested in to be strong enough. After all, investing was not a small matter and it was not like what they were doing now, giving Lu Chen a few things was considered as befriending him.
In terms of investment, a large amount of resources, food, and even thousands of sets of weapons and armor would have to be prepared by these merchants.
This was a matter that could hurt some small merchants and even cost them all their wealth. If the Prince's tribe was destroyed, everything they had invested would go to waste. To them, this was a disaster.
