C3236 Politicians also play the black game (2/2)
”And you, Your Excellency, have been in Europe too long... I'm afraid Asia is already unstable? Don't forget that this Great Qing has always been a huge threat to you! ”
”And now you are relying on the successful telegrams sent back from Europe to maintain the situation. Your wild victory has frightened all those hostile forces in Asia!”
”But once the war has reached a stalemate, how do you control the situation? When the time comes, we will sink into a quagmire, and be careful of the fire in the rear garden! ”
Thiers drained the cup of fruit tea in one gulp, as if it was a cup of strong alcohol. ”I have no interest in this kind of negotiation anymore, my bottom line is two hundred and sixty million, then I can add a portion of my money to buy the captives …”
”The amount of money needed to buy a captive is definitely not more than 100 million... ”How about this, 400 million is my absolute bottom line. If you can't accept it, then let's continue discussing. If you can't accept it, then I will scatter!”
What a bachelor! Seeing Thiers's brilliant performance, Xiao Letian couldn't help but clap!
”Good, good, good …” Wonderful, truly wonderful! ”If you don't become the boss of a gang, it will really be a waste of your talent to go undercover …”
”I have to admit, I can't refute your theory. If this war goes on for too long, we really won't be able to escape!”
”But... Do you really think that everything will go according to your plan? ”
Xiao Letian looked at the new President of France with an interesting expression. ”Are you overestimating your strength? Do you really think you can solve the chaos in France without our support? ”
”Let me put it a little more clearly. Can you really settle the current civil war in France?”
Bismark was obviously not interested anymore. He stood up and said to Xiao Letian, ”I'll leave the negotiations to you, I need to go and take care of the documents …” ”Obviously, our new President didn't realize his true strength. Let him continue dreaming then!”
After saying that, Prime Minister Iron-Blood left, leaving Thiers with a blank look on his face, ”This … What did that mean? Do you still want to talk about it? ”
Xiao Letian laughed, ”Talk! Of course we have to talk about this. How about we have a bet first? ”
”What do you mean?” Thiers sat up straight.
Bismark poured a cup of hot tea for the President, ”You have just taken up your post, the fire in your heart is burning, no matter how hard I pour cold water on you, I'm afraid you won't listen to me …”
”In that case, let's put aside the dispute first and temporarily not talk about the final outcome of the negotiation...” You should think of a way to solve the problem of the Paris Commune first! ”
”Haven't you already transferred 200,000 new troops? ”Don't say that your army is weak, I am very clear on your strategic intentions!”
”We, the Chinese and German armies, maintain a strict neutral stance. We don't care about anything else. We can even withdraw from the city's defenses …”
”Your problem, you guys solve it yourselves … ”If you solve this problem well, then it means that you have the power to rule this country. Everything will be done according to your wishes, four hundred million francs is not a problem …”
”But …” Xiao Letian laughed sinisterly: Hehe, if you are unable to solve the problem of the civil war in France, then it means that you still need our strength!
”Let's continue discussing when the time comes!”
