Chapter Forty-Seven: The Future Path Is in Your Own Hands

Wang Fan looked at Zhang Cheng with cold eyes, just watching, motionless. Zhang Cheng gently curled the corners of his mouth and looked at him with an indifferent expression.

From time to time, the headquarters not far away could hear the laughter of the 'young handsome' drinking and celebrating. These people didn't do anything, just ran over to play and were able to mix a brilliant feat, who can not be happy to open champagne to celebrate this kind of good thing?

As for what other people's things are always someone else's, only what is in your own hands is your own truth. These 'young handsome' who are about to enjoy a surprise promotion naturally don't care. For these proud sons of heaven who were born with golden keys, these are all natural things. The environment is the fundamental reason for determining your personality. The so-called morality is premised.

The sentinels outside the headquarters looked at the two tall men not far away in surprise, and the confrontation between the two could be felt even by the sentinels.

Wang Fan's hand shook suddenly, and he was burned by the burned cigarette butt.

"Hahaha~~~" Wang Fan suddenly threw away the cigarette butt and laughed loudly.

Zhang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense shoulders relaxed.

Although I don't quite understand why Wang Fan laughed. But Zhang Cheng didn't care too much. Regarding Wang Fan's proposal, Zhang Cheng will definitely not agree. If he is a person of this era, then maybe he should come down like this, after all, this kind of opportunity is rare. Unfortunately, Zhang Cheng is a modern man from the 21st century.

The education he received in modern time and space made Zhang Cheng understand that he could not be kidnapped on the chariot of a certain family or a certain force. Because then you would completely limit your future to death.

Zhang Cheng himself has unparalleled ability, why bother to send people under the fence? Let's not talk about the one he has, maybe because of the inexplicable mutation of unknown energy when he crossed over, and the mobile phone that can surf the Internet in this backward era. The education he received in modern time and space alone and his own knowledge were enough to make him live well, and there was no need to sell himself.

As for being used as a means of co-opting, the marriages that can be abandoned at any time by those big families whose interests are paramount at critical moments. In this day and age, it may not be taken very seriously. But for Zhang Cheng, who comes from a modern time and space that emphasizes the freedom of love, the education he received made it impossible for him to agree to this kind of thing.

Zhang Cheng, who was born in an ordinary family, didn't know what interest exchange and marriage were, because he had never encountered such a thing in his previous life.

But Zhang Cheng knows that his love has to be decided by himself, and his future is also decided by himself. was selected by the gods and Buddhas to become a traverser, no matter what, Zhang Cheng would not choose to wronged himself!

Regardless of whether the Miss Wang family, who has never heard of her, is a gentle and virtuous person, or whether she is a well-informed lady. It is impossible for Zhang Cheng to agree.

"Good!" Wang Fan, who finally managed to contain his laughter, raised his hand and patted Zhang Cheng's shoulder and nodded vigorously. His eyes were full of undisguised appreciation, "You, very good." ”

Zhang Cheng looked at Wang Fan with some confusion. In this day and age, something like a shoulder tap is not something that can be done casually. Especially for people with status, it's a way to show closeness and appreciation. It's just that Zhang Cheng and Wang Fan, who have just met, are definitely not familiar to this extent.

Wang Fan smiled and nodded, motioning for Zhang Cheng to walk with him.

At this time, it is already the beginning of the lanterns, and the night sky is full of stars. Zhang Cheng and Wang Fan walked together in the heat. In the silent and deserted streets of Naya Harbor.

Or in the execution of the military management of the heat. Naya Harbor is under martial law every day after dark, and anyone who wanders the streets except for the military is arrested as a spy. However, with the end of the fighting, martial law will be lifted here in a day or two at the latest.

Zhang Cheng turned around and looked at Guan Kuo, He Laosan and the guards who were following them not far away. Turning his head to look at Wang Fan on the side, he said in confusion, "Is there anything else Your Excellency wants to say?" ”

Wang Fan looked at Zhang Cheng and took out his cigarette. Take a deep breath: "I don't want you to agree to this. Because that would ruin a great young man with a great future. Although the Wang family can help you and solve some troubles for you. But you are also tied to the royal chariot. There is no choice in the future. The power of the major families that rule the empire is not something you can imagine. If you refuse, no one will say or do anything. But if you say yes, then don't want to get rid of this bond again in this life. ”

Zhang Cheng paused slightly, and pursed the corners of his mouth. Raising his hand and tightening the collar of his military coat to resist the cold night wind in winter, he asked out with a puzzled expression, "You are not from the Wang family?" ”

"I was from the Wang family when I asked you before, but now I'm not." Wang Fan lit a cigarette and handed it to Zhang Cheng. With a clear gaze, he said indifferently, "Now I am a citizen of the empire, a citizen of China!" Your choice is the best for the country. ”

"Thank you." Taking the cigarette and lighting it, Zhang Cheng nodded, his expression full of confidence, "I am in charge of my future." ”

The sound of neat leather boots tapping on the ground was heard, and a group of patrolmen in heavy winter uniforms walked up from the bend in the street with rifles on their backs. After seeing Zhang Cheng and Wang Fan, especially after seeing the rank on Zhang Cheng's shoulder, the non-commissioned officer who led the team raised his hand and saluted as he walked.

Zhang Cheng straightened up, pursed the corners of his mouth and replied with a very standard military salute.

After the patrol left, Zhang Cheng chuckled lightly and said, "I think it's quite interesting, it's the first time I've encountered this kind of thing." Although I have seen it many times before on TV. ”

"What is TV?" Wang Fan looked at Zhang Cheng suspiciously.

"Huh." Zhang Cheng smiled and quickly changed the topic, "By the way, there is no problem with this negotiation, right?" I was stopped only a few dozen kilometers from Turin, and then I was also ordered to withdraw. If the negotiations break down and go to war again, the Sardinian army, which has regained some combat effectiveness, will inevitably inflict some casualties on the soldiers. These casualties are all counted on those who gave the order! No matter who they are, I won't let them go! ”

"Haha." Wang Fan smiled and shook his head: "Are you stupid to be a Sardinian?" Or when our great empire on which the sun never sets is given for nothing? You will also participate in tomorrow's negotiations, so that you can see the strength of the top diplomats of the empire! ”

"I'm participating, too?" Zhang Cheng looked at Wang Fan in surprise: "I'm a soldier." What can you do in negotiations? Negotiators with guns to threaten the Sardinians? Forcing them to sign? ”

"That's right!" Wang Fan smiled and clapped his hands, "I appreciate you more and more, but it's a pity that my little daughter is still too young, otherwise I must let her marry a really outstanding young man like you." It's for you to threaten them. ”

After a pause, Wang Fan then spoke, "You defeated the main force of the Sardinian army with 10,000 men, or when they had just achieved a brilliant victory and their morale was bursting. And then directly threatened the city of Turin, what do you think those Sardinians will look like when they see you? Will you be afraid, angry, and afraid of the five tastes in your heart? ”

"I see." Zhang Cheng nodded slightly, "I'll give them psychological hints, impose off-the-field factors, and suppress their psychological bottom line." Make your negotiations go more smoothly and make them more afraid of choices that they can afford to lose. ”

"Alas~~~" Wang Fan looked at Zhang Cheng with complicated eyes, and said in an inexplicable voice, "You are such a smart person." I've never seen a young man like you. I don't know where you're going to go in the future. ”

Zhang Cheng shook his head with a smile, turned around and walked back in the direction of the headquarters with Wang Fan. Naturally, he wouldn't tell Wang Fan that what he just said was just something from an introductory psychology book. In the modern time and space of the Big Bang of knowledge, there is nothing you can't learn if you want to. Even if it's just something you see by accident

Contrary to the smiling and refreshed Ming negotiators. Named after the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, Fabio. Count Cavour (Commander of the Sardinian King** Team Giuseppe. The elder brother of the Count of Cavour. Led by the delegation of Sardinia since entering the heat. The conference room of the Naya Port Garrison Headquarters has been in a gloomy and bleak atmosphere since then.

A decisive defeat was fought from the point of no return. They all know very well what kind of outcome and treatment they will encounter when the situation is untenable. A weak country has no diplomacy, and this is an eternal and unchanging wise saying in diplomatic circles. What diplomats have in their hands and words in their mouths, everything they have to speak by strength. When you don't have the strength, you sit at the negotiating table, and that's the end of mermaid meat.

This negotiation was strongly arranged by Wang Fan in the heat. Naya Port, not bustling Milan. The reason is simple, it is full of Chinese troops, which can put extra pressure on the Sardinian diplomats. Although Wang Fan is not very old, he can stand out from countless children of the family and occupy important positions, how can he not have outstanding ability?

is still the same sentence, even if the children of the family are born with a golden key, they need the ability to get ahead. After all, there are also a lot of children in the family, and they also need to compete. No one is born with the desire to be a stubborn kid who eats and waits for death.

France, England, Germany, and Spain all sent envoys as witnesses. But now, even if they have the heart to help the Sardinians, they can't open their mouths in front of the powerful Ming Empire. They are still summing up the experience of this war and have no plans to stand up for the Sardinians.

The Europa people have always been pragmatic, and the Sardinians provide support when they are useful, and discard when they are not. It's in the interest.

Originally, in the eyes of the real Europa powers, this war was just a rehearsal of the power of new weapons, and a test of the strength and determination of the Ming Empire.

The Sardinians wanted to take the opportunity to retake the Doge of Milan, but it was only their own wishful thinking. Now that the war has been defeated, the bottom line for the countries of Europa is simply not to let them die. After all, they are still useful. As for the rest, it doesn't matter. Originally, this kind of state was used to sell.
