083: Negotiation at dinner
The night in Liuzhou City is much more lively than in the mountain village, because there are a large number of officials, big families and merchants gathered here, these rich and powerful men and merchants need some nightlife to spend a long night, so in the outer city of Liuzhou City, there are also green houses, wine shops and other places to confess drinking and have fun and vent their pastime.
Tonight in Liuzhou City's best Huancai Pavilion in a private room, the lights lit up all over the house make this private room comparable to Bai Yue, in the huge room, close to the building fence is placed on a table of dishes with good color and fragrance, today it is rare to blow the mild south, the furnishings here can allow diners to enjoy the food while enjoying the night view, if it is in the summer, you can also enjoy the cool breeze in the summer night, it can be said that it is a very typical southern-style architectural structure. If these dishes were placed in a mountain village, it is estimated that the villagers would have salivated from afar, but what is a little strange is that the diners at the table do not seem to be interested in the dishes on the table, and each dish is hardly touched, and it is placed there as it is. And the few people sitting down seem to have a faint and distinct posture in their seats, and a kind of breath of mountain rain is suppressed in this spacious and bright private room.
Sitting here is naturally an important role in today's story, after Deng Shifeng spoke, Huang Zhangshi returned to his house, and sure enough, it didn't take long for the Guangdong Hall to send people over to pay respects, although it was a New Year's reunion, but in fact, everyone understood that this was the other party to Liu Mazi as a lobbyist or even a showdown to demarcate the line, this is just like in the later black-social movie, the two bosses have contradictions, the boss came forward to negotiate the demarcation, talk about it, and start the film if it can't be talked, anyway, in the end, it is still the advantage of the big strength.
Huang Zhangshi naturally brought Deng Shifeng and a few non-commissioned officers to the banquet, and the other party didn't call any stewards or other cats and dogs to come out, a brightly dressed, full of kindness, greeted a smiling face when he saw people, President Li of the guild hall in his fifties, with Liu Mazi and their guards appeared here.
Don't look at Huang Zhangshi and Chairman Li, as soon as they meet, they will keep smiling at each other, if you don't know, you think that the two of them are old friends for many years, but in fact, if the two of them had long enough feet, they would have kicked up under the table. Coupled with the fact that Deng Shifeng and Liu Mazi were at the same table, this meal must not have been eaten much.
After a lot of polite words and scenes, after finishing the above process, the two old foxes finally began to cut to the main topic tonight.
"Two-headed people, the brothers of the Liu family were offended a few days ago, please look at the thin face of the old man, I hope you will ...... Haihan again."
Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, President Li's words, coupled with the smiling face comparable to the possession of Maitreya Buddha, really make people feel bad against the old man's wishes, if Deng Shifeng only has his own memory and knowledge, then he estimates that Bacheng will meet in the other party's "sincere" smile and words, laughing and hating; But the rest of his brain clearly told him if he said something like "We bear all the losses" after his sentence...... That means that the other party is sincere, and now you don't say it...... The smiling stinky old man with a black belly knows that you don't want to spit something out!!
Gently put the dishes and chopsticks in front of him, so that his hands could be better placed on them, Deng Shifeng said lightly: "I'm nothing, I'm just good at talking, but the dead and injured people in our village, I have to bring them back and give them an explanation......
"You've only killed a few people, and how many people have been killed by you on my side!!" As soon as he heard Deng Shifeng's words, Liu Mazi, who had been silent, was about to storm away, and listened to the housekeeper Liu Fan tell himself that it was basically impossible for a few of those guards to survive, and the artillery and muskets crackled and put them down like cutting rice.
"Hehe, the people in your family ran away with me, and they all blamed me for the death and injury?! Otherwise, I will also take dozens of people to Boss Liu's house to have a party, and if there are deaths and injuries here, I will never blame Boss Liu! ”
Deng Shifeng's sneer and words suddenly choked Liu Mazi to death, everyone opens a film to grab turf from time to time, who is strong, who takes advantage, you Liu Mazi has no ability to win the other party, and you talk about death and injury, isn't this a slap in the face...... Besides, how dare Boss Liu, who was already frightened, let Deng Shifeng's people come over for the so-called party, people want money, and his people are terrible when they come!!
"Don't hurt the peace, don't hurt the peace......" Seeing that the atmosphere of the scene was not right, Chairman Li hurriedly came out of the round. Otherwise, the dead and wounded brothers on the side of the two-headed people will make a list, and Brother Liu will support the brothers' soup money and family support money, and if the two-headed people are satisfied, they will also ask the two-headed people to raise their noble hands and let go of the brothers of the Liu family who are not dead inside, and Brother Liu is also willing to pay for the redemption of these brothers......"
Chairman Li's remarks were very pertinent and had the ability to mediate, but Deng Shifeng said that he would only agree to the first one, and he would not agree to the later payment of the ransom to release the prisoners. After this battle, some slave workers in the mountain village, such as Hou Si, will definitely be rewarded for their outstanding performance, and the best reward is to change their nationality in advance to become an official member of the village, and some other slave workers with outstanding performance and can withstand their own review will also be absorbed into the army to become soldiers to be replaced, these people have won the trust they deserve with their performance, and they should change their positions in advance! This will inevitably lead to a shortage of labor in the mines, and I will need these captives as cheap labor...... Besides, these people have been to mountain villages, and have seen some things in mountain villages and the way their own armies fight, and the best way to keep them a secret is to control them in their own hands until they can't be turned into dead people.
Seeing that Deng Shifeng was biting the bullet and not letting go of the release, Chairman Li also knew that this would not work and no longer pursued it, so he turned to the amount of compensation. For the compensation, Deng Shifeng said that he was not very interested in real money or silver, and the minerals, minerals and other materials he needed were still his most interested and lacking materials, at this point, although Boss Liu's business firm was indeed unable to meet such complicated needs, but fortunately, he could use real money to buy from his new thighs - Guangdong Guild Hall Peer Firm.
To say that the two sides have negotiated to this extent, it should be said that it is quite smooth, although the other party occasionally puts on a high-profile posture that is superior to others, and uses strength to coerce themselves, but once this situation is encountered, Huang Zhangshi will promptly pick up the conversation and brush up the sense of existence, and once Huang Zhangshi expresses his position, the other party will definitely regress immediately, after all, in the eyes of the other party, Huang Zhangshi, the backstage of the East Guangdong Chamber of Commerce, still has a certain amount of energy, and it is not conducive to everyone making a little money if everyone loses when it is really noisy...... Therefore, the other party did not dare to go too far.
Negotiation itself is a helpless way in which both sides cannot directly use force or other means to achieve a complete victory over the other party. And if the weaker party is eaten by the other party, what qualifications do you have to negotiate?!! In the final analysis, it is the whole backstage contest that plays a very important role in it.
And you know, don't look at Boss Li's side seems to be very easy to speak, in fact, there is a reason, Boss Liu lost his own dominance after being attached to the Guangdong Guild Hall, that is, the right to speak, how to compensate is completely up to President Li, anyway, the compensation is borne by Boss Liu's family, and Chairman Li doesn't have to pay a penny here, so it is natural to use other people's money to negotiate compensation. Even when he heard Deng Shifeng's various requests to make Boss Liu's face bleed, his face was already pale, but the real predicament made him have to endure his emotions and not have a seizure, this kind of hemorrhagic expression that made his heart drip blood finally made Luo Dan behind Deng Shifeng feel a lot better.
After reaching various agreements, the meeting between the two sides should be over, but Chairman Li continued to pull Deng Shifeng and Huang Zhangshi to chat for a while, although Deng Shifeng and Huang Zhangshi were a little puzzled, they still did not leave the table, they also wanted to know what kind of moth would happen behind President Li.
Sure enough, after chatting for a while, Chairman Li unveiled his gourd......
