"Ah, I haven't drank it for a long time." After taking out a few sugar cubes from the space bag and mixing them well, Lawrence took a big sip, letting the mellow taste spread from the tip of the tongue to the base of the tongue. "This taste is indeed very good.
It’s great, and it’s far better than the milk tea I bought on the street in that world.”
"This is inevitable." The little doll was also very ladylike at this time, kneeling on the table and drinking milk tea from his cup in a much more elegant posture than Lawrence. "Does the milk tea you bought before contain milk?
It’s a problem with tea. Apart from sugar, it’s probably all flavor. How can it compare to a purely natural milk tea like mine?”
After drinking milk tea, it was getting late, and a tauren knocked on the door to inform them to have breakfast. So Nora put the pile of things on the table into the astral plane, and the two of them went out to have breakfast.
. In the temporary restaurant, he also met those members of the mission who looked a little dazed.
Although the quality of the wine brewed by the Tauren using honey, cassava and some wild fruits is indeed good, and the alcohol content is not as high as that of distilled wine. But the atmosphere at the bonfire last night was really good, and the Tauren were indeed enthusiastic enough.
So with everyone drinking quite a bit this morning it was almost inevitable to have some hangovers.
Fortunately, the tauren shaman has some special herbs that can solve this problem. In order to not affect the day's negotiations and work, except for Lawrence, all the members of the delegation who drank yesterday drank this dark green color, which was like a drink.
A muddy potion. Judging from their wrinkled faces, this potion shouldn't taste very good.
What followed was two days of small-scale individual contact work. Lawrence negotiated and reached some simple cooperation agreements with the Tauren tribe representatives who were relatively close to here and had arrived in time. At the same time, a temporary training class was also opened to cultivate those
Tauren medicine men and shamans.
At this time, the importance of Lawrence bringing doctors, veterinarians and agricultural technicians was reflected. For settlements like the Tauren tribe, which is a semi-agricultural, semi-fishing and hunting people, the knowledge possessed by these technicians is very important to them.
It is so important that it can even affect the life and death of a tribe.
At the same time, because of the help of these technical personnel, a large number of problems that the Tauren encountered before were easily solved. In fact, many of the problems they encountered before have become no longer problems in the outside world, but because of their previously closed environment, they did not know
There are changes in the outside world, so I am still troubled by those simple problems.
On the other hand, they have indeed learned many methods from their contact with humans in history. Unfortunately, many of these methods have no way to continue to be used after leaving foreign trade. For example, the medicines needed for malaria that is prevalent in the region are on the island.
Not at all, so even if you know how to treat it, you can't treat it according to those methods.
Three days later, the small class held by Lawrence and the others stopped. This was not because they had finished teaching all the knowledge, but because all the surrounding tauren chiefs had arrived, officially the human and tauren chiefs.
The liaison meeting can finally be officially held.
The main goal of this meeting is to allow both parties to achieve comprehensive cooperation. After the previous contact between the two parties, both humans and tauren have a certain understanding of each other. Therefore, both races are eager to deepen cooperation with each other.
, in order to promote the common development of both parties, and in order to cooperate, both parties need to determine many things in advance.
What is gratifying is that both parties sincerely hope to cooperate with each other. Therefore, it seems very smooth when reaching an agreement. Especially the tauren themselves are a very honest race, and they will say that the terms are up to their bottom line.
The time has really come, and we won’t need to negotiate repeatedly to find out where the other party’s bottom line is like humans do.
Therefore, Lawrence and his human delegation naturally adjusted their negotiation methods according to the different objects of negotiation. The entire negotiation process was quickly simplified to both parties taking turns raising their own questions, and then expressing whether they agreed. If they agreed, they would be recorded.
If you disagree, you will submit your opinion again in the next round.
At least 95% of the discussion content can be finally reached in two or three mutual compromises and concessions, while the remaining half is recorded to prepare for detailed negotiations later or simply shelve some non-core disputes until later.
We will discuss further cooperation later.
Although everything went smoothly enough, the negotiation lasted for more than two days. When the negotiation on the last important issue ended, everyone on both sides of the negotiating table breathed a sigh of relief. Humanity breathed a sigh of relief because of such negotiations.
Although the speed is fast enough, the intensity is very high, and sometimes it even takes a few minutes to decide something. Therefore, everyone's nerves were tense during the previous negotiation process, but now they can finally breathe a sigh of relief after the negotiation.
.
As for those tauren, they had either fought when they met goblins before, or they had simply negotiated and reached an agreement verbally with their compatriots.
It is too difficult for them to read through the piles of very detailed planning documents one by one and figure out the contents.
"I swear I have never seen anything so complicated that needs to be discussed in my more than 70 years of life." After the negotiation, as the leader and representative of the group of tauren, the man with a pair of huge sickle-like horns,
The old tauren shaman, who was covered with white hair, said to Lawrence with a smile, "Fortunately, the spirit of nature told me that all these contracts are fair, so I only need to analyze the superficial meaning of these words."
"Of course, the reason why we want to negotiate is because we want to reach an agreement that can benefit both of us, rather than letting one party benefit and the other party suffer." Lawrence said this from the bottom of his heart, and he did it before setting off.
Some retainers suggested to him an agreement more beneficial to his own side, but Lawrence rejected it outright.
On the one hand, the outlook he had acquired through the education he received in his previous life made it difficult for him to formulate a fraudulent agreement for innocent people. On the other hand, he subconsciously felt that since the tauren were on this island,
We are our own people. It is definitely a lack of foresight to face the traps and deceptions of our own people.
And now Lawrence feels very lucky, because he really didn't expect that these tauren could contact the spirits of nature before, and it was impossible to guess that although they could not understand the important contents of these contracts, they could communicate through some kind of supernatural
The power to detect the reasonableness of these contracts.
The mutually beneficial contract prepared by Lawrence has received good returns. Even if these Tauren were not able to fully understand the contract given by Lawrence before, they now believe that Lawrence is a reliable person.
Humanity, and is determined to achieve comprehensive cooperation with the group of humans represented by Lawrence.
"But now I have a worry, that is, how can we achieve mutual benefit." The tauren chief said with a little worry. "We tauren have too few goods for sale, so we are a little worried.
Since then, various problems have arisen due to trade imbalance between the two sides."
"You are right, but simply relying on your current export of labor services and a small amount of timber exports will definitely not be able to achieve a trade balance between us." Lawrence nodded and said, "But now we have found a new one from you.
Once developed, our products will not only satisfy the trade balance between us, but also make you rich."
