Chapter 1241 Don't want to spend money but want to do things
General Chat has already felt that it is easier to ask for help than to give away. If these guys in front of you end this state with you, they will not only be able to defeat you with one or two words, they will definitely make some other demands.
These demands may be ones that General Charter is unwilling to meet.
"I know that this period of time has not been easy for you. These resistance organizations have caused you a lot of losses. Based on the principle of friendship between the two countries, I can make appropriate compensation for your losses, but you also
We know that our garrison expenses are not very high, and our losses are not small, so this number may not be too large, but it can represent our feelings."
What General Charter said is bullshit. If translated, it means that you don’t want to spend money and still want to do things. Almost everyone in the world thinks like this, but how many people can accomplish things like this? You guys
I caused trouble earlier, and now I don’t want to compensate others, but you have been pushed to the edge of the cliff again, and you have to solve this matter according to your wishes. If there is such a benefit, please do it next time.
Introduce it to us, and we are willing to cause such a thing.
"Your Majesty General, aren't you old and confused? I remember that since the Industrial Revolution, your Gallic Empire has always talked about a price. When you talk to people in the colonies, you also let them understand the meaning of price. Now we
Standing here to negotiate, shouldn't you let me understand what the price is?"
The chief of staff said with a smile that the Gallic Empire once published a magazine with the word "cost" on the cover. Some said that the colonies delayed their time, and some said that the colonies delayed their time.
Progress, anyway, there is a reason to occupy this place. If you had agreed at the beginning, this kind of war would not have happened. Now the Chief of Staff has continued to return the fate to you. We will live honestly in Yancheng. You
They sent people to our territory to look for trouble, and now they want to end the matter in just a few words. Do you really think that we are being fooled?
"I have said that we will compensate you to a certain extent. We have paid for the funeral expenses of all your fallen soldiers. In addition, we will compensate you two hundred thousand silver coins. This matter has passed like this. It is a good thing for you and me.
It's a good thing. If the two sides continue to quarrel, the negotiations with the West will not be good, and your people will be in a state of diplomatic isolation in Seine City."
General Chat worked hard to explain such compensation conditions, and the chief of staff opposite almost laughed out loud. If this is your sincerity, then there is no need for us to continue talking, let alone our town.
The Lu army is so strong now. When we were first established, no one dared to beat us with 200,000 silver coins. The beggars had to ask for more than this.
"The gap between us is really too far. Otherwise, it would be better if we go back and think about it carefully. After three days, we will negotiate again. We will work hard in these three days. Maybe you can
Catch all the people we sent there, so you don’t have to pay a dime."
The chief of staff has no idea of continuing the negotiation. The psychological valuation gap between the two parties is too big. What is two hundred thousand silver coins enough for? It is not embarrassing enough after taking it. If the chief of staff signs such an agreement, it is estimated that
This guy's future career in the army is over. No one dares to continue working with this guy, because you are a typical traitor.
"Chief of Staff, please wait. If you are not satisfied, you can speak up directly. I don't want more people to lose their lives. We are not enemies. There is no need to engage in such tense negotiations. We just need to tell each other."
Only in this way can we continue to talk according to our respective psychological wishes. If any of my words have offended me, I will apologize for my words, but this is not the reason for you not to put forward conditions. If you do not put forward conditions,
Our war will continue, which is not good for both sides."
General Charter's language and organizational skills were also very good. After a while, the blame was placed on the chief of staff's head. Of course, the chief of staff did not have much time to care about the effect of this kind of internal negotiation.
"I know you have no money, so you don't need to use money to compensate us, but you do have a large piece of land in your hands. The coastal plain northwest of Yancheng is a very good farmland. According to our people,
According to the survey, there are at least 800,000 acres of land suitable for growing food crops. There are more and more of us here, and we hope to obtain this land."
When the chief of staff said this, the people present were frightened. The chief of staff was really open-mouthed, and some of our negotiators, including some of us, felt that the request was a bit too much.
The coastal plain in the southeast of Annan Kingdom is a major grain producer in the country, accounting for almost 7% of Annan Kingdom's production, and it also has three crops a year. If we can occupy this place, let alone be stationed here.
A large part of the food for the army can be transported back to the country. You must know that this is not wasteland. All of this is reclaimed farmland, and it has been cultivated for many years. Now you want to take these 800,000 acres all at once.
It is indeed a bit too much to get the land in hand.
According to the current land price in Annan Kingdom, each acre of farmland must be more than ten silver coins. The most important thing is that this is an irrigated field, and the weather is also very good. The price must be more than twelve silver coins. If you buy it all, you will need at least
Tens of millions of silver coins.
"Chief of Staff, are you kidding me? Do you know how many people are involved in this farmland outside your city? In addition to our people from the Gallic Empire, there are also many high-level officials from the Annan Kingdom, and people from other countries are here.
We have also bought a lot of farmland here. If you want to take it directly, have you ever thought about the diplomatic dispute it will cause?"
It took General Chat nearly two minutes to calm down his mind. He was sure that he was not dreaming just now, because he pinched himself hard, and sure enough, his hands were pinched blue. The guy in front of him was really a lion.
Open your mouth and you will get 800,000 acres of cultivated land. If you open your mouth, 800,000 acres of wasteland will be given to you directly...
