Chapter 448: Terms of Negotiation
Lu Ming is too familiar with this place, first met Shangguan Wuyan here, was eaten tofu by Wu Zun, a bastard, and after being drugged, he stabbed the other party in the elevator and fled with Shangguan Wuyan. The second time was when he came in disguise with Ji Ruyan, and there was another incident, which made the chickens and dogs in the Red Devil District jump. After that, he and Shangguan Wuyan made a big fuss with the iron tower and took away the materials that the Red Devils had stolen from the Chamber of Commerce. Thinking of this, Lu Ming's heart was full of joy, but he didn't know what kind of situation he would encounter this time.
The negotiation venue was arranged on the middle level of the tower, which was more heavily guarded than usual, and even the last time I came in, I was not so nervous. On the periphery of the tower are more than 100 people patrolling, each pair of about a dozen people, only about ten meters apart, 24 hours without dead ends.
On the outer floor of the tower are the streets and alleys, where there are a lot of people, armed and well-equipped, to prevent the infiltration of the Chamber of Commerce and other forces, which will sabotage the negotiations, and may also kill Lu Ming and other representatives.
And under the iron tower, there are the ironclad guards that Wu Zun values the most, and the weapons they hold are different from the other thieves Lu Ming has seen, in addition to the three-foot-long sword, they also wear a pair of bows and arrows and a quiver behind them, and the quiver is filled with about twenty or so arrows. The arrows are the most dazzling place, these arrows are inlaid with diamonds, and they are coated with a layer of poison, even if they can't shoot people, as long as they scratch a little skin, they can kill the enemy.
In the tower, eight repeaters are arranged on each floor, and each repeater can shoot hundreds of arrows at the same time in a second, and before the enemy can react, they all become hedgehogs immediately. And the repeater is also surrounded by archers and elite ironclad guards, who specialize in guarding the repeater from being destroyed by other people with ulterior motives.
Such an arrangement can be described as incomprehensible, and it is impossible for even a fly to fly out. Wu Zun's arrangement is evident in his intentions.
Every window in the venue was covered with curtains, and the inside of the curtain was nailed with a layer of steel plates to prevent anyone from climbing up from the windows. On either side of the window were two archers and two ironclad guards, who would kill the enemy on the spot as soon as they came.
When Lu Ming saw such an arrangement, he immediately burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" After Wu Zun came in, he was very puzzled, thinking that the kid was laughing at himself again.
"Of course I'm laughing at you, Wu Zun, I know how much you want to kill me in your heart, but seeing your arrangement, I don't think I have to worry. I dare say you're most afraid of me having something happen here, aren't you? So, I think it's imperative that we sit down and negotiate openly and honestly to bring the best benefits to both sides. Lu Ming said triumphantly.
Wu Zun admired Lu Ming very much in his heart that he could see through his heart, "That's right, that's true, but what, if you leave my Red Devil Zone, you kid will wait to be beaten into a disability, no, be divided by five horses, in that case, I will be willing." ”
"Whatever, you just can't touch me right now, anyway. Wu Zun, you and I both know who each other is, hurry up and sit down, don't waste time. I still have to rush back to the magic capital to hand in the mission. ”
"Okay, let's negotiate it formally. Wu Zun beckoned the others out, except for the archers and guards guarding the window, leaving only the Nine Striped Dragon and him. The two-to-two negotiation is just in line with identity and logic.
Zhao Tianlin is already very proficient in the content of the task, and he has also explained clearly to him the conditions that the military department wants. After sitting down, he first politely asked Wu Zun to explain their conditions.
"Boss Wu, the thief area you occupy has been attacked by all sides, but our military department wants to make peace with you for the sake of the same root and sect, so I would like to know what kind of conditions you want to put forward. ”
Wu Zun patted the table, stared at the round eyes, raised his sword eyebrows, and roared loudly: "Your military headquarters is just taking advantage of the fire to rob, and when you see me and people in other regions fighting, you will take advantage of the situation to enter." If this were not the case, would your military headquarters dare to send people over? Come one to die, one to die, one to die? ”
"It seems that there is no point in the battle of words now, Boss Wu, let's put forward your conditions, our military department is not non-negotiable. Originally, everyone was safe and sound, and the people from the major academies, major sects and chambers of commerce, as well as the military garrisons and police departments stationed in various places were all safe with you, but you shouldn't have robbed the military department's materials, which was the fuse of this war. Therefore, don't say anything else, since you don't want to say it, then I'll talk about it. The conditions of our military department are very simple: first, hand over the supplies, and do not blame the past. Second, it is not allowed to interfere with the transportation of the Chamber of Commerce in the future. Third, it is forbidden to enter the city and take advantage of the fire to loot. As long as you do all three, our defenders will not attack you. ”
"What do you mean? You want me to hand over the supplies? Are those people in the Chamber of Commerce stupid? I'm just bragging in the wilderness that we robbed the supplies, and you just catch us, right? What evidence is there to prove that I robbed the supplies? Also, recently one of my mining areas was discovered and robbed, and I suspect that it was your hands. ”
At this time, Zhao Tianlin stood up, pointed at Wu Zun and said sternly: "Boss Wu, pay attention to your wording, although we all know that you Boss Wu has opened many mines, but we are not interested in knowing where they are at all." You kid falsely accused us of robbing it, and it was clear that you just don't want to negotiate, right? ”
"Negotiation should also be fair, okay? Come to negotiate in my Red Devil District, your attitude is still so arrogant, you and I Wu Zun will really pray to make peace with you? Zhao Tianlin, you go back and tell the military department, if you have a kind, you will destroy the rest of my mining area, and see if I Wu Zun has the courage to enter the city and kill the demon capital. ”
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Lu Ming wanted to help Zhao Tianlin complete the task, stood up and asked the captain to sit down, and said in a calm tone: "Wu Zun, I know very well who you are, but you old boy is not stupid, I believe that someone will definitely be sent to investigate this matter." If you were smart enough, you wouldn't have put the whole pot on us. In the wilderness, whoever wants to compete with you the most for ore is the beneficiary, our military department has never been rare in the wilderness, and has never mined in the wilderness, just those in our city are enough for our warriors to enjoy. ”
