Chapter 307: Lingcoin Request (Chapter 3)
Ling Yuan's fat and thick hands were spread out casually, with an exaggerated smile on his face, and his fat flesh was decorated downward, looking like a huge bagel. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He showed a relaxed expression, looked at Sun Long, and said: "You are right, we don't want to set up any enemies and opponents, open the skylight and say bright things, we are all born for profit, there is no need to pretend that a holy gentleman has something to say." If you ask me for anything, you might as well say it directly, see how much I can accept, and then calm down and talk about cooperation, it seems that it will be easier and more comfortable. ”
I have to say that Ling Yuan is still very experienced in doing things, and he directly grasps the core of the problem, which is simple and clear, which is similar to that Li Lao's evaluation of him, simply and neatly without any drag.
Sun Long couldn't help but praise this, and also gave a similar evaluation, doing things with such a person is two words refreshing.
So Sun Long didn't hide it, and directly threw out the words, saying: "I want to help the former royal family restore the country, as for how to do it, I don't need to say more, the Zhao family is in the ranks of death, as for how to rebuild after the war, this is not within my jurisdiction, if you think there is anything negotiable in the interests, you can discuss it with the newly established regime." ”
Ling Yuan, who seemed to be relatively funny, was actually listening carefully to every word of Sun Long, and when these words were coming to an end, Ling Yuan said, "So what role do we play in this war?" ”
This sentence is tantamount to giving Sun Long an army of counter-generals.
Although the meaning of this was more subtle, Sun Long still heard it, and he also showed a serious thinking look, and said, "Merchant." ”
So both of them fell into a brief silence as they looked at each other.
After a moment, Ling Yuan's fat was trembling, and then he spoke: "Merchants need to maximize profits, you should understand that we have paid a lot for this, and we must be rewarded with enough, otherwise no matter who it is, don't want to get benefits from us." ”
This is an official statement.
In fact, it was not much different from Sun Long's assessment and expectation of this person before he came here.
So in the face of such an attitude, Sun Long is still mentally prepared.
Sun Long said: "It's none of my business. But I can assure you of only one thing, that is, your interests will not be harmed after the war, the court will continue to provide you with protection, and the rest is no longer within the scope of what should not be carried out. ”
Sun Long also expressed his attitude and thoughts.
So the whole conversation was completely deadlocked.
……
According to Sun Long's original thoughts, after the conversation has progressed to the current level, a battle to prove his strength seems to have to begin.
But no.
After Ling Yuan's initial anger flashed away, he fell into an unusual calm, he didn't show any excess, on the contrary, he looked at Sun Long very peacefully, and said: "Don't be so anxious to answer my question, some things are not so absolute, just like I am willing to consult with you here today, in fact, from the moment you are in this boutique garden today, I can completely meet you in another way, of course I didn't do that, this has already expressed my sincerity." In other words, if you want me to acknowledge your status and existence, you first have to prove that you have similar strength. Otherwise, don't you think it's a bit too child's play, but with one of your verbal promises, let me give up a good opportunity to loot profits, and even give up a good opportunity to cross the Lingxi Country? ”
Yes, the core of all the problems lies in the exploitation of the resources of the Lingxi Country.
Whether it is the current Lingxi State Military Department, powerful ministers, relatives or other businessmen, when the country is in danger, the first consideration is their own interests, the first is to ensure that their own industry is not destroyed in the war and turmoil, and the second is to make the country difficult to make money.
Merchants are profit-seeking, and they spread to the whole of humanity, and a considerable part of the population is like this, so it is not difficult to understand the attitude of these classes towards war.
The Giant Mining Workshop is definitely not just an ordinary workshop, in addition to the meeting with Lin Xi, the lord of the Giant Mining City, the materials he handed over to Sun Long are also fully explained.
The Zhao family and the Ling family are relatives.
Yes, the Ling family is the imperial relative of the legitimate regime of the current Lingxi Country.
If strictly speaking, the current Sun Long is a fugitive from the Spirit Rhino Country, a thief with a heavy reward, not only is the Ling family obliged to capture him, even if it is enlarged to the scope of the All Spirit Rhino Country, this is the case.
But this conversation was carried out, and within the scope of interests, it entered the process of consultation, which contained the will and ideas of the Ling family, and their attitude was already very obvious.
Sun Long knew that in their eyes, the so-called imperial relatives were far less important than the real interests.
So when the talks began, Sun Long finalized the idea.
But how can the balance of interests be so easy to find, now it is nothing more than seeking the object of cooperation, the purpose is to maximize interests, this object can make the high-level of the Ministry of War, can also be the representative of the minister, and can also be the representative of the merchants of the Lingxi Country, and even Sun Long is among them, of course, the possibility of foreign forces interfering is not ruled out.
The lesser of the two powers, the contrast between the two things, and the importance of the two things, is basically understood by any businessman.
But what does Ling Coin like about Sun Long?
Sun Long is now thinking about this question.
If you make a trade-off on the balance of interests, the two people who only have the opportunity to meet twice seem to know each other well enough, and in Sun Long's eyes at this time, at least on the surface, Sun Long's power in the Lingxi Country is the weakest.
So what is the Ling Coin Diagram?
……
"What do you want me to do?" Sun Long is also a frank person who doesn't like to drag mud and water, since Ling Coin has something to express, he simply let him express it, and everyone is clear and transparent in their hearts.
Ling Coin said: "In a word, the Lingxi Kingdom will run the country with commerce in the future, and merchants must enter the decision-making level of the empire, enjoy the same rights as normal ministers, and have the right to participate in the formulation of national policies." That's just one of them, at least similar demands can be met by any head of power today, and I think you should know that that's not what I'm trying to say. Sun Long, you are a good young man, and your deeds have been widely spread in the aristocratic circles of the Lingxi Kingdom today. Most of them are now divided into two factions, one of which is to implement a policy of extermination against you, no matter who encounters it, they will unite with others to strangle you, the purpose is to stifle the possibility of your growth, and they are afraid that you will take revenge on them with the old evil. On the other hand, the other faction is to protect you, and fortunately I used to be a neutral faction, but as I gradually deepened my understanding of you, and the contact with you in the past two days, I became the latter, and decided to join the ranks of protecting you. But you know, I'm a businessman, and my vocation is profit-seeking, so you have to give me enough benefits. Believe me, I won't make you feel embarrassed, as long as you give me some places to enter the Instrument Dao Sect, this major event of the Spirit Rhino Country, our giant mining workshop can choose to retreat into the background. ”
Ling Yuan's eyes burned.
He did not despise Sun Long because of his age, on the contrary, in these conclusive words, he had a clear face-to-face negotiation with Sun Long.
Whatever is said is completely from the standpoint of equal communication.
The basis may be that it comes from Ling Yuan's thought-provoking words, and it is true that the more he understands Sun Long, the more he appreciates this person.
But Sun Long was still a little surprised.
I was amazed from start to finish.
Especially when it came to the last critical request, there was a feeling of confusion, he looked at the Ling coin in front of him with suspicious eyes, and said: "I didn't even know about the existence of the Instrument Dao Sect before I came here, and it was only now that I wanted to enter the sect to learn something under the recommendation of Old Man Li." You're kidding me by asking me to recommend someone to you to enter, right? ”
Ling Coin didn't mean to joke at all.
He looked very serious, and then showed a mysterious smile, and said: "Although our Barbarian Beast Mountain Range is said to be a part of the Reckless Wilderness, it is located on the border, and its productivity is extremely primitive and backward, and even the level of civilization is far from other true empires, so the perception of the outside here is very limited. Take the entire Reckless Domain as an example, the estrangement between the empire and the sect exists in history, although the empire seems to be harmonious, but in fact there is a great dislike between each other, although it is said that under the constraints of the Central First Civilization Holy Empire, they maintain a certain civilization and etiquette with each other, but as long as the control is a little looser, they will fall into a state of self-killing.
The current Brute Mountains reflect the correctness of this statement. This is only one of the points, and those seemingly loose sects, because they have common enemies and rival courts, in order to prevent them from attacking at any time, these sects maintain a certain degree of contact with each other, and there are always these important activities held, which can be described as an ironclad and abnormal harmony. Although there are occasionally a few sects that hate each other, the number is very small, and on the whole, they are still very harmonious.
Many things in the general environment have little to do with the subject we are talking about now, but I want to say that the degree of relationship between some sects is beyond your imagination. You think that there is no way to have a relationship, but in fact it may be very close, just take the Dao Sect as an example, their sect and the sect master of the Iron Sword Sect are Mo Yi's friendship. There is nothing to say about saying that you can die generously, not to mention sending a few people into the sect for such a friendship, even if you go to the sect to mix a few positions, it may not be much of a problem.
The incident you made in the Iron Sword Sect was earth-shattering, and when I learned about it, I even wondered if someone was maliciously making up a story to deceive me, but after inquiring from many sides, I was sure that this was the real thing. I was lamenting the legend of this incident, but I still kept a certain amount of calm, and it wasn't until I saw you today that I completely believed that the battle at the top of the Iron Sword Peak had indeed changed the outcome of the normal battle by yourself.
No matter what, as long as you nod your head and agree, you don't need any heavy gifts, just a half-foot letter to the Iron Sword Sect, and the matter will be settled. Sun Long Xiaoyou! I don't think I need to say anything more about how to choose this matter! ”
……
Sun Long was dumbfounded when he said this.
He didn't have any words to refute, the first part of what Ling Coin said was an objective phenomenon, although Sun Long had not done any meticulous investigation into this matter, but it gave him the feeling that it was indeed similar to what Ling Coin said.
But the second half is more shocking.
In addition to the people of the Iron Sword Sect on the Iron Sword Peak that day, they were the people of the Falling Flower Sect, and I believe that the people present that day are unlikely to pass on the results of the day, because this will not benefit the reputation of their sect at all.
But Ling Coin knows everything.
It can only show that this person's power is beyond imagination, and even among the core disciples of the Iron Sword Sect, there is actually a person who exists with him, so it seems that the relationship between Nalan Qingfeng and Sun Long is naturally within Ling Yuan's grasp.
