Chapter 52: To Each His Own Word (1) Disputes

Wenbo didn't care about the attitude of the Lieutenant Hardy on the other side, he was more concerned about what Hertha said to him just now, so after Hertha introduced them to each other, Wenbo asked bluntly:

"Hertha, we have been friends for many years, you know very well why I came here this time, now that the thing has been found, I want to know when you can let me take it away? I hope that the sooner the better, of course, there will be no change in my previous promise to you, I can even call the country in front of you, collect all the supplies, weapons and ammunition you need and send them to the dock you have designated, but this person and that shell, no matter how bad their state is, I also need to take them out of this place as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night, I hope you can understand this request. ”

Wenbo didn't pick up Hertha's words just now, but asked the other party directly, but Hertha is not a fuel-efficient lamp, seeing Wenbo's eager appearance, he waved his hand and said softly:

"Wenbo, don't be so anxious, many things have to be taken slowly and discussed slowly."

"What else is there to discuss, didn't we all negotiate before? Will there be any special changes? ”

Wen Bo said and looked at the people in the room, and then looked at Hertha on the side, with a puzzled face, and after a while, he suddenly laughed again:

"I understand what you mean by renegotiating, do you think the return we have given you is too low, you want to renegotiate the terms of exchange with me, no problem, you can understand your mood, if you have any requirements, you can say it directly, as long as I can do it, I will try to meet you, if there are any new requirements, please tell me face to face."

There was a bit of arrogance in Wenbo's tone, which made Hertha very unhappy when he heard it, and the other officers present were also displeased, they looked at Wenbo with gloomy faces, but Wenbo pretended not to see it, stared at Hertha and asked:

"Tell me, what new requirements do you have?"

Wenbo's contempt completely made Hertha's face tense, and he said in a serious tone:

"Wenbo, even if we have been friends for many years, you can't speak too casually, I can ignore your words, but here is not just the two of us alone, therefore, you still have to be cautious when you speak, of course we need your help, but this is definitely not begging, every time you pay has been rewarded accordingly, at least we are equal transactions in this regard, not your unilateral payment, am I right?"

"I'm sorry Hertha, I'm in a hurry, I don't mean to offend you, if what I say makes you feel uncomfortable, then please accept my sincere apology, and please understand my feelings."

Wenbo touched his heart with his hand sincerely, bowed slightly to everyone present, Hertha waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, these are still small sections after all, no one will really take it to heart, let's talk about our business."

Speaking of this, Hertha raised his eyes to look at Wenbo in front of him, and seeing that Wenbo was listening intently to his speech, Hertha continued:

"I know the purpose of your trip, and I promised to help you inquire about the whereabouts of these things, but don't mind, Wenbo, what I promised is limited to this, and the reward you said is only because of the results I gave, right?"

"That's right, we discussed it like this before, I promised not to let you help in vain, and I haven't denied this promise until now."

"But now that the situation has changed, there is a big difference from what we have discussed before, and our demands are different."

"I know that you have personally retrieved these things for us, saving us a lot of trouble, and we will never ignore your hard work, so I am happy to accept your new conditions, and if you have any requirements, I will listen to them."

Hertha waved his hand:

"My friend, maybe I didn't know what I meant, I promised you to find out the whereabouts of the thing for you, and now the situation is that we have seized this item and this person from the hands of the Yifu army, and the nature of the two results is very different, I said it clearly enough, right?"

"I still don't hear it, does it make any difference?"

Before Hertha could speak, intelligence officer Zait spoke:

"The difference is that before it was something that belonged to you, we found out the news for you, and you paid for it, but now it's different, now these things don't belong to you, but to us, you don't have to pay anything for it?"

Wenbo was completely stunned by the other party's words, he thought that the other party might make more demanding requirements, but he never expected that the other party would meet Caiqi's whimsical idea to take it for himself, Wenbo looked at the people in the room with an incredible face, and finally his eyes fell on Hertha, and asked in a low voice:

"Hertha, is this how you make friends? Is this how you treat your friends? ”

"Wenbo, it's not that I shirked, there was nothing wrong with what I promised you before, and now what I said to you is not wrong, there is no misunderstanding here, the difference is that the theme of completion has changed essentially, originally I promised you the help of friends, and now the appearance of these things is the hard work of another person, and I have nothing to do with it, in this case I can only coordinate from it, just now we have been discussing this matter for most of the day, I am advocating to send these things to you, but most people do not agree, especially these officers in front of you, they are the main members of the operation to complete the operation, even Major Prabi he can't be arbitrary, he has to listen to everyone's opinions, so we are left to negotiate a solution with you, which is enough to show our sincerity, can you understand? ”

"I don't understand, Hertha, why is that? You are one, why can't you keep your promises? I know what you're doing, but that's not a reason to break your promises, the difference is just where things are located, and I really don't understand. ”

"You should understand, Mr. Wenbo~"

It was Lieutenant Hardy, who was still wearing the uniform of the Iraqi army, who stood up, stared at Wenbo and said:

"If we find out the location of this thing for you, it will show that these things are in the hands of someone else, you have lost them, and how you can find them or not has nothing to do with us, now this thing is in our hands, we got it from the Iraqi army, it was captured, and its properties have changed radically, Mr. Wenbo, to be precise, the current owner of this thing is us, not you."
