Episode 2019 Things Sudden Change(1/2)
"Actually, you can't say that. Our people in the Eastern Empire have always been very honest. They don't understand these things very well. For the people, you guys just give them some small favors. Of course they won't.
If you oppose you, they will not oppose you for a short time, but after a long time, they will no longer be like this. They still hope to return to their own motherland. Your Cao Family Business Firm occupies a large area of land here.
It is unfair to say that if you make any trouble here, the resistance of these people is amazing. In the future, you may not be able to retreat even if you want to retreat. These people are yours now, and they may not be able to retreat in the future.
He will become one of our people, and may even help us to fight against you." At this time, an official sitting behind the Eastern Empire stood up and said, his words were very sharp. It seems that this guy is not a good bird.
But there is some truth to what he said, and everyone here can listen to it.
"Yes. What do these common people know? They have no culture at all. They will follow whoever gives them food. Although your Cao Family Trading Company occupies a large area, you are also very, very rich. We also know that
The money you make in the other three empires is also very powerful, but you can invest all the money in this place and invest it in these people, but it is absolutely impossible. We in the Eastern Empire, as long as we get a little
Give some and distribute it to these common people. It’s hard to say who they will stand next to in the end, but I think the chance of them standing next to us may be higher." Another official from the Eastern Empire said. They are now working hard to let them stand next to us.
People from the Cao Family Trading Company believe that what you are getting now is not a piece of land, but a piece of trouble. Your good relationship with these people is only temporary. These people may stand up against you first. This is all possible.
, these common people can be said to be fickle, and you can’t know what they will end up like.
"What this gentleman said is true, but we have another idea. The common people are the theme that builds the entire society. In the past, the upper echelons of your Eastern Empire paid too little attention to the thoughts of these common people. They simply could not listen to their thoughts.
Go into your mind. It’s because you haven’t put yourself in their shoes at all. Many things are like this. That’s why we, the Cao Family Trading Company, have taken advantage of your loophole. And now we have successfully exploited this loophole.
have gone in. Don’t you understand what I mean? After we go in, we will not retreat easily. Now you are begging us to retreat. We are vested interests and we will ask me to ask you a lot of things. Now you
Don't think that our demands are too much. If these common people don't resist us, they will become ours, and that's when Li Cong will be in pain." Naturally, the people of the Cao Family Trading Company were not to be outdone, and targeted Dong Dong.
The questions raised by Imperial International were answered and the answers were sonorous and powerful.
"None of us can say clearly what will happen in the future. We can only say that there is a 50% chance that it will develop in a good direction and a 50% chance that it will develop in a bad direction. What you all told me is that it will develop in a bad direction.
Regarding the matter, what many people in our Cao Family Trading Company say is that things are developing in a positive direction. There is a 50% chance on both sides. No one can say that anyone’s words are inaccurate. Another point is that our Cao Family Trading Company
As you said, you are indeed very rich, and the people's appetite is also very small. As long as you give them a little benefit, they will be on your side. The benefit we give them is not a little now.
In the future, we will also increase our support for them. If we turn the place we occupy into a paradise, I believe many people will come." Many people in the Cao Family Trading Company have received professional training in psychological warfare.
Yes, arming them with some things from the earth is definitely not what people of this era can think of. Sharp teeth and sharp mouths are their current characteristics.
"You people from the Cao Family Trading Company shouldn't be complacent for too long. Now it's because you robbed some of our government's warehouses and you can distribute some things from wealthy families to them, so these people will follow you, but next you
What are you going to do? It is simply impossible for you to move things from the other three empires and distribute them to them. If there is no benefit, these people will become your biggest trouble. Don't think that they will follow you now and drive you back in the future.
I'm going back, it's probably them. After all, our Eastern Empire court has ruled this place for a long time, and we have some people's hearts. Even if you occupy these mature cities now, can you guarantee that you have complete control of these cities?
That's impossible. We are also our own spies here. If we want to cause trouble, you won't be able to stop us." The smell of gunpowder between the two sides is really getting stronger. The representative of the Eastern Empire said this
You can tell, and you can tell to what extent they have been upgraded? Each one of them has started to tremble all over.
"I have just said that none of us can understand the future. There is a 50% chance that it will be good and a 50% chance that it will be bad. The aspect you mentioned is bad, but we are all very
Optimistically, we don’t believe that those things will happen to us, and we also believe in the principle of repaying kindness with kindness. Nowadays, these ordinary people are basically not living a very good life. Because of us, their lives are still very poor.
Okay, so I believe they are very grateful to me in their hearts. Even if some of your elements are instigating them, people who do not understand the truth may follow you out to cause trouble in a short period of time, but in the long run they will not
If you do this, your Eastern Empire court will only give them pain. Without any good memories, they will never look back." The people from the Cao Family Trading Company smiled and said, "We don't get angry when you are angry. This is why we occupy the largest share."
When we have the advantage, we will make you even more angry. This is our purpose. Let us finally get the benefits we need. This is our purpose. The people of Cao's Trading Company are still very principled in doing things.
"Okay. Let's not talk about useless digressions. Now let's get back to the issue of compensation. We in the Eastern Empire must have discussed it. We can give your Cao Family Commercial Bank a compensation of up to 300 billion taels of silver.
In addition, if you want to give up the cities you currently occupy, you can reserve up to fifteen port cities for you. The rest are impossible. This is our final bottom line. If you think it is possible, we can continue the negotiation.
If you think it's not possible, we will temporarily adjourn the meeting. We don't know when the negotiations will start again." The people of the Eastern Empire changed their previous soft style and now are tough. Let the Cao family
The people in the trading house were shocked. What kind of confidence do they have to speak like this? Are they really planning a large-scale operation? The occupied area is definitely unstable, and everyone in the Cao Family Trading Company is not aware of this.
It is very clear. After all, they have ruled for so many years and you have only occupied it for a few days. The gap is too big.
"I'm sorry. This matter is really far from the requirements of our Cao Family Trading Company. We have no way to reply to you now. If you feel that there is no need for us to continue talking, this matter can be stopped. I can't guarantee that we will
No matter what the military operations of the quarreling parties will look like next, our people cannot just sit idle in these more than 300 cities. We will also attack some surrounding counties and even some larger cities.
Your losses may be even greater by then, but you feel comfortable now. Don't blame me when you regret it later." Boss Cui knocked on the table, then closed the folder in his hand. Now he
I don’t want to continue negotiating with these people from the Eastern Empire, so just let the time go on for a few hours. After a few hours, they may not think this way. In a few hours, the people on the eastern coast of the Eastern Empire will
When the news comes, they will beg us to come back to the negotiating table again. The conditions then will be completely different from now.
The negotiators of the Eastern Empire did not expect that the people from the Cao Family Trading Company would be so tough, but the words had already come out of their own mouths. Can they still take them back? That is absolutely impossible.
It was too difficult to take back these words. One by one, they all imitated the action of urging the boss. They closed the folders in their hands and walked out first. It seemed that they had the upper hand if they walked out first.
Yang, many people in the Cao Family Trading Company had no intention of competing with them. They all sat down in their seats and waited for them to go out, and then went out with a smile. It was not what they needed to steal the limelight at this moment.
Yes, what they need is that vast land, extensive people, and huge interests. This is a taboo for negotiators. If you can't control even this emotion, your life will be miserable in the future.
De Ke is so sad that he loses his composure in every aspect. Li Cong told them that he also learned this from the people on Earth.
Li Cong never thought that their negotiations would end so quickly. He was enjoying life in his bedroom when he saw his negotiating team members came back one by one. Judging from the expressions on their faces, there should be something wrong.
, because those who did not come in with a smile had a trace of doubt. These negotiators were all wondering why the Eastern Empire suddenly had so much confidence. Could it be that there were some changes on the battlefield? This is also impossible.
What kind of changes will there be? Why didn't our intelligence system mention this change at all? Li Cong waved the two women in the room to go out. It is not convenient for women to be present when he does this kind of thing.
Yes, besides, these two women were arranged by the Eastern Empire. If they conveyed any news, he would suffer a great loss. Although there would be no bugs or the like in this era, Li Cong still let himself
His men searched the house thoroughly to avoid discovering something that had missed him later.
"What's going on? Why are you all back? Aren't you negotiating? The expressions on your faces should mean that something unforeseen has happened. It doesn't matter. Just say it and listen. Don't put too much pressure on yourself.
Don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself. What you have to maintain at this time is a good mood. You have to put huge psychological pressure on them. If they see your current expression, they will probably start.
Let’s celebrate with a bottle of wine. I’m happy to be here. The snacks on the table are still good. I tasted them just now and they are still to my taste. I believe you also need to replenish your energy after such a long time. This is what negotiations are like.
80% of the time is talking nonsense, and only 20% of the time is when doing serious things." Li Cong asked his negotiating team members to sit down, and then pointed to the snacks on the table and said, but it is a pity that these people seem to be all busy now.
I lost my appetite and was thinking about what happened just now that made the people of the Eastern Empire so stubborn.
"Don't be so optimistic. We don't know exactly what happened, but judging from their expressions, they must have found some way to restrain us. Is there something wrong with us?
. We don’t know yet. If this was the case, our trump card would have come earlier and let them feel some pressure. This can only be from two aspects. One is that they are pretending to be relaxed. There is no such thing.
They did it by themselves, which made us feel pressured. The other thing is the most terrifying thing. That is that they really have a handle on us. If this happens, the subsequent negotiations will be very difficult." Boss Cui
He said at the beginning that he was not that optimistic yet. His brows were now wrinkled to a point that would definitely kill a fly. The expressions of other people were basically similar to his. These people were still too young and had not experienced the test.
.
"Regarding this issue, I can't think of anything that they can catch recently. How much progress can they make in the northern battlefield? That is absolutely impossible. I already told the big shots there during the negotiations.
General, tell him not to rush in, just hold on to the current territory, and there should be no problems elsewhere. Could it be that the fleet we sent to the eastern part of the Eastern Empire was discovered by them? That is impossible even if it is discovered by them.
I doubt that the speed of our fleet can easily get rid of them. What is it that can make us embarrassed?" Li Cong fell into deep thought. At this moment, Li Cong felt that he was not as optimistic as before. Indeed, this matter is real.
It's so strange. The people in the Eastern Empire should be very nervous now. There is absolutely no way that the scene just happened. Just like Boss Ji said, I also hope that the first aspect is that they are just deceiving, but why in my heart
Why would he be so uneasy again?
A room full of people have been discussing here for half an hour but they still don’t know what mistake they made in this regard? People from the Eastern Empire are also in a large conference room waiting for discussion at the moment. They have indeed got Li Cong
The shortcoming, this shortcoming is something that Li Cong and the others did not expect, that is, they found some important strongholds of the Cao family business in the other three empires. How did they find this? All thanks to the other three empires
Now you can say that the strength of the two sides is at odds. On the one hand, Li Cong united the three empires to resist, while the Eastern Empire did double-dealing. On the other hand, he sent such news to the people of the Eastern Empire. I believe
After a while, this thing will be a huge weight in negotiations for the Eastern Empire. If this thing is taken out, Li Cong will make some concessions. I really didn't expect that the people of the three empires would be so pickpocketing.
"Master Prime Minister, is this information in your hand true? If it is true, we can completely overturn all previous treaties and establish treaties according to our own wishes. Although the Cao Family Trading Company is very large, it is
As we said, they are just a chamber of commerce and do not have a very strong governance system. Although their defense forces in various places are not weak, it is very easy for us to concentrate on dealing with them. Counting the number of experts, the Cao Family Trading Company is still
But how can it be compared with our Eastern Empire? The other three empires have no reason to attack her directly, so they gave us this news. They also hope to see us fighting fiercely. We can help
They wiped out the Cao Family Trading Company and they should thank us." One of the negotiating team members said happily. He really didn't expect that the Prime Minister would get this thing in such a short period of time. In fact, it was not the Prime Minister's credit but the three major ones.
Thanks to the empire, they are going to start wiping out the Cao family trading house.
If Li Cong were here, he would definitely scold the top officials of the three empires for not being able to see the future. These people only started to do such things because they felt the danger temporarily. They also didn't want to think that the Cao Family Trading Company was really destroyed now.
If it weakens, there will be a vacancy on the northern front. If the people from the Thunder Gate take this opportunity to escape back to the Eastern Empire, that will be the time when the three empires suffer losses. These people have no brains. Just see that Cao Cao is now
The Cao Family Trading Company is a threat to them. Can't they see how great the threat the Eastern Empire will be to them in the future? Even if the Cao Family Trading Company did something under their noses, it would not cause much trouble.
If the Eastern Empire really has such huge strength, then all of them will become slaves of subjugation. So what if they are the current emperors of the three empires? At that time, the Eastern Empire really conquered your empire, and you still want to be the emperor.
Even if you can save your own life, it is a very difficult thing.
The two sides did not start negotiations again until dark, but the two sides still had to eat together. This was a kind of etiquette, a high-level etiquette. Although Li Cong was not very accustomed to such etiquette, he followed them. Let Li Cong not
What I thought of was that the Prime Minister of the Eastern Empire was already sitting and waiting for Li Cong. Judging from the expression on his face, he should have gotten something important, or something about the Cao Family Trading Company. Otherwise, it would not be possible.
He smiled so much that his beard stood up. The Prime Minister can be regarded as a person who doesn't show much expression. But what he did today was seen by Li Cong. Li Cong also felt a sense of dissatisfaction in his heart.
Good premonition, this matter is just like what I said just now. The second aspect is not the first aspect. They are not bluffing, but they really have something in their hands. This can make them truly happy.
Getting up, Li Cong felt a little unhappy at this moment.
It’s no wonder that the two sides are originally on opposite sides. Things that make you happy are things that make me unhappy. If you want to do something here, just tell me to get out. Li Cong slowly walked to sit down opposite the Prime Minister, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister."
It seems that if you have something happy to say, let's all be happy together. Looking at the smile on your face, I really want to know why you are so happy?" Li Cong said after sitting down. The Prime Minister glanced at Li Cong,
He also said, "To be honest, I do have some happy things, which is why I came so early to wait for you. If I follow my inner thoughts, it would be the best thing for me not to meet you in this life."
, but I have to tell you this now, otherwise you still won’t know what you should do tomorrow. I got a piece of information here from the three empires. The top leaders of the three empires gave it to me.
To be continued...
