Chapter 1232: Negotiations Break Down

More than an hour has passed in the blink of an eye, and the negotiations are still continuing.

But the atmosphere in the conference room was not as harmonious as before, somewhat tense, and a faint smell of gunpowder could be smelled in the air.

"18%! Steven, this is the limit that the Federal Reserve can give a reward for treasure discovery, it can't be more, just this ratio, we have to discuss it when we go back, and it is not certain whether the other executive committee members agree."

Christopher said with a blank face, his eyes wide and angry.

Ye Tian, who was sitting opposite, had a bright smile on his face, and in the eyes of the rest of the people, he really owed as much as he owed to beat.

"20%, Christopher, this is the biggest concession I can make, I said before, I'm a businessman, the purpose is to make money, I can't let me work in vain."

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, but his tone was extremely firm, and there was no doubt at all.

"Absolutely impossible! This percentage is too high for us at the Fed to accept, that it is not our individual reserve gold, but the wealth of all Americans.

You bastard is so greedy to the extreme, stop talking about you being a businessman and an employee of a company who needs to make money to support your family, you know better than anyone what a huge fortune that is!

Even if the lowest 10% treasure discovery reward is at least hundreds of millions of dollars, you don't even have to pay a dime to make such a huge fortune for nothing, what's not to be satisfied with?"

Christopher said through gritted teeth, his eyes almost spewing fire.

The rest of the people from the Federal Reserve were the same, one by one, they couldn't wait to rush up and beat Ye Tian fatly, and let out a bad breath.

Compared with them, those guys from the New York City government are more like people who came to watch the lively melon-eating crowd, all of them are full of interest and relish!

No matter how the reserve gold in that secret vault is distributed, as landowners, the New York City government will cut a piece of it, and of course they are not in a hurry, and they are happy to watch the excitement from the sidelines!

"In that case, there is no need for us to continue talking, it is a waste of time, we are not idlers of each other, and we don't have so much time to waste.

It seems that the secret vault will continue to be buried in the ground, waiting for the next destined person, and in the future, someone may discover the secret vault and raise those dazzling reserve gold.

I hope that the New York City government will not sell that piece of public land to private individuals, and that the next guy who discovers that secret vault will follow the law like me and not touch the reserve of gold.

Gentlemen, it's almost noon, it's time for lunch, and if you have a good face, I invite you to a good lunch, there is a very nice French restaurant nearby."

Ye Tian stood up and said with a smile, his expression looking a little regretful.

With that, he pushed his chair away and prepared to leave the room.

Jason and David also got up and prepared to leave with him.

"You're right, Steven, it's true that today's negotiations can't go on, and continuing to negotiate is just a waste of each other's time, so let's stop today.

As for the treasure discovery reward you requested, let's go back and discuss it again, you are from Wall Street, you should know about the Fed's decision-making process, I can't say a word!"

Christopher said with a gloomy face, pushing his chair away and standing up.

Several other high-ranking members of the Federal Reserve, as well as the guys from the New York City government who were watching the excitement, also pushed away their chairs and stood up, each with a different face.

"Of course you can discuss, Christopher, but you'd better hurry, lest you have too many dreams, and you know, I'm a treasure hunter by profession, and I might be leaving New York that day to explore the treasures!"

The difference between us is not big, but only two percentage points, you can all give 18% of the proportion, so why stick to two percentage points and not let go, be generous, then there is grace!"

Ye Tian said jokingly, his expression was very relaxed, and he didn't seem to take that huge fortune in his eyes at all.

"Be generous? Why don't you see you being generous? Accept 18 percent of the reward for treasure discovery! It's only two percent! You're really big enough, that's tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars!

We'll discuss this as soon as possible, and we'll make a decision in a day or two at most, and we'll let you know, whether or not we're cooperating with you to explore that secret vault that has been missing for decades!"

Christopher said angrily, rolling his eyes.

"I look forward to receiving your call, Mr. Christopher, and I hope that call will surprise me, and I believe it will bring you a great surprise as well.

That's all for today, let's go to dinner, you should have been to the French restaurant I mentioned, and you know a little bit about the cuisine there, it's worth trying."

Ye Tian smiled and nodded, and sent out the invitation again, showing great sincerity.

Christopher shook his head slightly, declining his invitation.

"Thank you for having me, Steven, we know that the French restaurant is really good at what it is, it's well known on Wall Street, and it's one of the top restaurants in Lower Manhattan.

But at this moment, we have no intention of enjoying any French dinner, we just want to return to the Federal Reserve headquarters in New York as soon as possible to discuss the secret vault, so we can only refuse your good intentions!"

As soon as his words fell, Blake, assistant to the mayor, immediately picked up the conversation and politely rejected Ye Tian's invitation.

As public officials, during the negotiation with Ye Tian, they are not suitable to accept Ye Tian's banquet, which is likely to attract questions from the media and attacks from opponents from all sides!

"It's a shame! I obviously can't have lunch with all of you today, and I hope that there will be such an opportunity in the future, preferably at the celebration banquet after the joint exploration of that secret vault!

Gentlemen, it is a pleasure to be here today and to have a friendly and harmonious exchange, we are leaving the town hall, and I wish you all a wonderful day"

With that, Ye Tian bypassed the conference table and went to shake hands with Christopher and say goodbye.

"Friendly and harmonious communication? Less nonsense! We can be regarded as opening our eyes today, how greedy a person can be, how obsessed he is with money!"

Christopher and the others secretly complained frantically, while shaking hands with Ye Tian and David to say goodbye, and the smiles on their faces were not very good-looking!

After shaking hands and saying goodbye, Ye Tian and the others left the conference room and left the New York City Hall.

Ye Tian and the others had just walked out of the conference room, and one of Christopher's henchmen and subordinates gritted his back molars and said:

"Steven, this bastard is so hateful, he's greedy to the extreme, boss, should we give this bastard some tricks and ask where that secret vault is buried?"

As he said this, the guy kept his voice so low that only he and Christopher could hear it.

Christopher turned his head to look at the subordinate, then said in a low voice:

"To deal with an extremely cunning bastard like Steven, we can only follow the rules of the game, and we can't use those tricks that can't be put on the table, which will only cause bad things and even lead to disaster.

As expected, the whole process of the negotiation just now was filmed by Steven's gang with a pinhole camera, uploaded to the cloud, and stored, which is his usual style.

If we use shady tricks, that bastard will definitely spread the relevant video on the Internet as soon as possible, and at that time, not only will his team of lawyers pounce on us and bite us, but all suspicious eyes will look at us.

Don't forget who we are, we are the makers of U.S. financial policy and the rules of the game, at least on the surface, we must abide by the rules of the game we have set and win the trust of others!

In the financial and academic circles of the United States, there are not many people who are staring at our seats! If we make a scandal, it will not only be media reporters and lawyers who will pounce on us, but there will certainly be many old opponents.

At that point, it will be almost certain that we will step down, and will it be easy for me to become one of the seven members of the Federal Reserve's executive committee? No one will want to remove me from this position except death!

Another thing is that Steven guy is a bastard with no taboos, there is nothing he dare not do, and for him, the law only exists in this world when it is in his favor.

If we go beyond the rules of the game and use shady tricks against that guy, I'm sure we'll face extremely fierce revenge, and we will probably be killed by that bastard and destroyed physically.

In that case, not only will we get nothing, but we will cause a commotion, and we may very well take our own lives, and only the stupidest fools will do such a thankless thing!"

Hearing Christopher's words, his subordinate couldn't help but shudder, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, he immediately thought of Ye Tian's various behaviors, the bloody killings, and the guys who were sent to hell by Ye Tian himself.

Do you want to go to hell? Do you still need to ask? Even if you are an idiot, you don't want to go to hell!
