1119 Jiang Fei’s Proposal (1/2)
Since the martial artists insisted on maintaining their so-called pride, the negotiations quickly came to a deadlock. Although the military had promised them certain compensation, if the Martial Arts Alliance was going to continue being so arrogant, the military could easily cut down on it. Then, the major Sects could bid their resources goodbye.
F*ck! What the hell is wrong with these people? Jiang Fei thought to himself. He could not stand it anymore. They kept talking and talking, but there was no progress in the negotiations at all.
Jiang Fei was not the only anxious one. The young martial artists who came with their elders were too. They were still young, so they did not really mind cooperating with the military. They only thing they cared about was the fact that they had been starving for about two weeks now!
However, the elders were not as realistic. They cared about their pride and dignity way too much. They were afraid of carrying an eternal bad reputation, so they were very cautious about working with the military.
”How annoying!” After two or three hours, Jiang Fei could not take it anymore. At this rate, this would end up taking a few days! Did he have to accompany them for that long?
Although Jiang Fei wanted the Martial Arts Alliance to owe him, he did not intend to waste his time here.
”Can I say a few words?” Jiang Fei finally took the initiative to interject.
”Sure, younger brother Jiang! Tell us what you have to say!” When Bai Wanli saw Jiang Fei speak up, he felt relieved.
Although these martial artists wanted to protect their pride, they were really reluctant to give up the compensation. Now, even though the major Sects could still make ends meet, they were almost out of resources. The worst thing was that some of the equipment and resources they needed for training were almost used up.
There was not enough food to replenish their physical strength, and they had no good equipment and weapons. How were they supposed to train? Therefore, the major Sects were in a tough situation. However, in order to protect their pride, they had to stay arrogant. Now that Jiang Fei had opened his mouth, all the leaders of the major Sects shifted their gaze onto him. They were all hoping that he would break the deadlock.
”Pfft...” Jiang Fei could not help but sneer, looking at these martial artists. He obviously knew what they were thinking. They wanted him to be the ”black sheep.”
Jiang Fei did not really mind being the black sheep. He did not have the virtues of a true martial artist, and he did not mind cooperating with the military. Therefore, if he had to do the deed, he was not bothered at all.
”Well, isn't Green Willow Heights near the Emperor's Capital? For now, why don't the military give the Martial Arts Alliance some money to rebuild Green Willow Heights? Then, the Martial Arts Alliance can move their base there. We can talk about the rest later.” Jiang Fei put forward his own ideas.
”Sure.” The military representative immediately nodded. Although it was not mentioned in Jiang Fei's proposal that the Martial Arts Alliance would help defend the military's base if something happened, the two bases would basically be next to each other. If the robots launched an attack on the military, would the martial artists sit back and ignore it?
Although the ultimate goal of the military was to integrate with the Martial Arts Alliance, they knew how these martial artists were like. It was impossible for them to change their attitudes in a short time, so the military wanted to adopt a slow step-by-step approach to change their attitudes, and also change the views of the younger martial artists toward the country.
The young martial artists were not as old-fashioned as their elders. Although their current influence on the Martial Arts Alliance was very small, their elders would pass away eventually. When these young martial artists obtain power over the Alliance, they would naturally be more willing to cooperate with the country.
