Chapter 375 (1/2)
Three days later.
Danube, port fraternity 1.
The Yongye army leader and the Kingsley family fought against countless forces in the open and in the dark, and held a high-level meeting.
On the Danao River, there are many warships, all of them are excellent, and they are encircling the brother ports. If there is any problem in the meeting, the Yongye military leader will launch an all-round landing operation.
In the brotherhood port, the Kingsley family's East army was also nervous. Outside the No.1 wharf, surrounded by a large army, even defensive siege equipment was pushed up, and the Yongye army leader was also afraid of small tricks.
At the first meeting, the two sides had not yet established the most basic trust, and they were afraid that the other side would attack their commander-in-chief.
For this meeting place, both sides racked their brains and wrangled for several days.
In the end, the Yongye military leader made concessions before reaching an agreement.
Compared with akemeiser, the Yongye army leader is more confident both in the overall situation and in the means.
Both black collar air support and soul beast card are the means for Sean to survive. Ackmeiser knows the former, but he doesn't know the latter.
If the calculation fails, akemether will push the East army into a hell of doom, and the angry eternal night army will cut off all negotiation possibilities.
Due to the thorough preparation, the meeting at the beginning was smooth and smooth without any accidents.
Both sides entered the arena in a very low-key way, and there was no sensitive act of showing off force. It was meaningless to do so except to stimulate the sensitive nerves of the other side.
After all, both sides have fought countless rounds, both overtly and covertly, and their old opponents can be regarded as knowing their roots.
”Baron, younger than I expected.” Axel said with a smile.
”Marshal is not the first to say so, and I believe it will not be the last.” Sean responded with a smile, ”marshal, you're also younger than I expected.”
”Baron, is that a compliment? Or scold me? ” Akmether lifted his gray and white hair and beard and said, ”is that still young?”
”Marshal, the more serious personality is consistent with the rumor.” Sean let's get started with a ha ha
”Let's go!” No matter how serious his character is, he will not bite a compliment. If he is so sincere, he will not sit in his present position.
Sean was sitting in a critical position and opened the door to enter the mountain and said: ”the trial work, I believe the people below have finished. Marshal, let's not waste time on both sides. You should know that the lives of 20000 alligator civilians can't be your amulet. Let's make a real price, so that we can move on to the next step of the matter, and the time of 20000 alligator civilians staying in your hands The longer it is, the faster the devaluation will be. When it's all dead, you can't even get one grain of grain. ”
”The Baron is not only a qualified Lord, but also a qualified merchant.” Axel couldn't help sighing.
”Thank you, marshal, for your praise.”
”The grain load of a thousand merchant ships shall not be less than 20 tons.” Axel made a direct offer.
”Twenty thousand tons of grain, an average of one ton per person. Marshal, are we slaughtered as fat sheep? Or do they regard the 20000 crocodile people as real gold and silver? Marshal, there is still no sincerity. ”
This is a typical lion's big mouth. Twenty thousand tons of grain is enough for his 200000 army. He has been eating frugally for half a year. He really takes the Yongye army as the unjust leader.
”Two hundred tons of grain, no more,” Sean said
”The Baron always let me have a little sincerity. When I went to my own place, I could not see any sincerity at all. It would be a bit cruel to cut 99% off as soon as I started. That's 20000 living people. Even if 20000 pigs, it's more than that price?”
”Everything should be divided into different situations. Under normal circumstances, human life is priceless, not to mention 20000 lives. Even if it is two lives, we would not hesitate to launch a war. But now is the war time, human life is cheaper than pigs. At least pigs can eat. They are in the Marshal's hands. That's a real problem. Is that right?” Sean pleaded solemnly.
”You're absolutely sophistry.” Akemaiser said with a cold face, ”human life is human life, which will never change. It is said that the Baron has just swallowed the crocodile people. Does he not care about the life and death of his own people? As the Baron said, it's just a matter of delay. When the time comes, your people will die. It's really hard to say whether this bad debt will be charged to us or your baron. After all, it is a foregone conclusion that the Kingsley family will withdraw from the swamp of despair, and the Baron will continue to rule here. In this way, you and I will meet each other, 18000 tons. ”
”Marshal, are you confused? It's obviously a bad thing that you did. How can you put this bad debt on our head? You see, even if it is not successful, we have already expressed our sincerity. I have come in person. The final result is caused by your exorbitant asking price. How can we succeed if we let others do a task that cannot be completed? 250 tons, no more. ””Impossible tasks? Is the Baron joking? Let's not say how easy it is for you to transfer grain directly from the small Asiatic plain. The grain merchants in Huayu plateau alone have no less than 8000 tons of grain. Have you just reached an agreement? ”
”Marshal's news is really smart. Yes, we have reached an agreement, but it's one thing to reach an agreement. Whether we have the ability to eat it is another matter. Our family has a small business, and we are engaged in construction and war. We have been living beyond our means for a long time. We can't eat them all at once. If we can take a small part of them, it's the limit, not to mention me Our army and our people also want to eat
There is no big difference between the bargaining between the two sides. It's just that the number in their mouth is bigger.
As a seller, akemaiser asked for a lot of money, while Sean, the buyer, paid back the money.
However, the psychological price of the two is far-reaching, and the gap is nearly 100 times. It will be difficult to reach an agreement for a while and a half.
At the end of the day, akemeiser refused to lower the 10000 tons of grain. What he focused on was the 8000 tons of military grain that the grain merchants in Huayu plateau should deliver to them.
However, Sean refused to continue to increase the price to 1000 tons. The Yongye army leader wanted to rescue the 20000 crocodile civilians. On the premise of not affecting their overall plan, if too much grain was put into the hands of akemeiser, the variables would increase, and the fool would do it.
The first day of the meeting lasted three hours and ended in bad mood.
They seem to have been talking about food, and there are a lot of things in their gossip.
For example, Sean's insinuation that as long as akmetcherken leads the army to surrender, the Yongye army leader will treat each other with the highest standard of treatment, and still lead a group army.
Akemeiser not only refused cleanly, but also expressed that as long as the Yongye army leader released the river and let the Kingsley family go home, they not only unconditionally released 20000 crocodile civilians in their hands, but also promised that the Kingsley family could sign a non aggression treaty with the Yongye army leader and abandon their peeping into the desperate swamp.
This proposal was also ignored by Sean. He managed to catch a big fish without frying two catties of oil from him. How can he live up to his previous hard plan?
Both sides are taking this opportunity to test each other's bottom line, the result is not very good.
For the Yongye army leader, the resistance will shown by ackmeiser is still very tenacious, which is not affected by the difficulties. This experienced and indomitable veteran is the most difficult one. Even if there is no hope in front of him, he can persist to the end.
Such a person, let the Yongye army lead mouse drag eggs, no place to mouth, want to find a breakthrough from him is too difficult.
For axel, Sean is more difficult than expected. At a young age, his political skills are very old and his words are not revealed. You can't know which one of his words is true or which is false.
