Chapter 70 Negotiations

Fang En came, landed at Matou under the jurisdiction of the Navy Battalion, and then was sent by Kong Youde to the governor Xingyuan to come outside the Xingyuan, and notified that someone would go in immediately to report, and after a while, a soldier came out to spread the word, saying that the adults were invited

The soldier led the way and led Fang to a side tent, and inside the tent, there was a long table, and at each end of the table were two or three chairs, and it was clear that this was the point of negotiation

Fang En thought that he would be able to see Yue Su soon, but after waiting for a long time, the person who came was not Yue Su, but a person who called himself Jiang Jie

The two sides said a few polite words, and then began to get into the topic

"Brother Fang, Jiang Mou was ordered by the governor of my family to negotiate with your envoy In fact, the content that you and I agree on is also very simple, that is, according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, draw a way, and conduct a contest In order to show sincerity, my lord said, after all, we are an official army, and our strength is strong, if we are cautious in any place, it is too ridiculous, so I decided to let your ministry take advantage of it, time and place, you can choose first, and we have nothing to say" Jiang Jie's words were very big, and he spoke in the tone of a Jianghu person, The most infuriating thing is that he still has a condescending attitude with clothes, so that you can take advantage of it

Although Fang En is a pirate, he also has a lot of backbone, following Zheng Zhilong, and has dealt with officers and soldiers a few times, and he doesn't dare to say anything about the strength of the Fujian Navy, but in his eyes, the strength of the Sailor is not worth mentioning at all, if he fights at sea, he can understand all the battleships of the Navy Division without much effort, however, he didn't expect that the people of the imperial court can't fight a war, but they have a lot of big words, and let's choose first, you have the face to say it, didn't you say let us take advantage of it, this is cheap, we don't occupy it, you keep it for yourself

Originally, Zheng Zhilong confessed when he came, it doesn't matter where he fights, as long as it is at sea, anyway, the entire Fujian coast and the Taiwan Strait, we know everything about it, and where we choose it is the home field, but we must win it in terms of time, no matter what, we must fight until the eighteenth day of next month, and it can't be delayed until next month at the latest

But for this breath, Fang En actually forgot Zheng Zhilong's explanation for a while, straightened his chest at the moment, and replied: "This Mr. Jiang, if you are an official, you will say a lot of things, and you will also say that let's take advantage of it, to put it mildly, my family will bring half of the troops, and you Fujian Navy Division will be able to destroy your Fujian Navy Division first, and I did not directly pick your Navy Battalion, but also because Lord Yue has a good reputation, I have just arrived, give him some face and tell you, we don't take advantage of this advantage, Save you from losing as an official, some are excuses for time and place, you choose first, choose the rest, we will decide"

Jiang Jie just used the agitation method, he understands the character of the bandits, the people in the rivers and lakes, righteousness is important, of course, he often uses things in a word, often upside down the donkey does not fall down, does not fall the knife to the neck, the mouth is very hard Fang En really hit the plan, but Jiang Jie did not immediately say that he wanted to choose the time, but said in embarrassment: "Brother Fang, aren't you embarrassed brother me, before the negotiation, my family has an explanation, you must let you choose first, don't fall into the prestige of the court Moreover, I also want you to lose after you lose, There is no excuse for you...... Turn around and let me choose first, after the adults know, you don't have to complain about me, if you don't want to let me eat the military stick, Brother Fang, I don't think you should embarrass the little brother, you choose first"

He deliberately put on a low posture again, his face was full of bitter melon color, but he was snickering in his heart This trick is to retreat into advance, and the use is even more ingenious, he has a good idea of what kind of character the person on the road is

"That's not going to work either!" Fang En entered the trap again, he looked like a bachelor, and said loudly: "When I came, the chief scoop of our family also said, we can't fall into the prestige of our eighteen zhi, no matter what, you have to choose first, otherwise, once the chief scoop of my family knows, it is not as simple as playing the board, if you don't do it, you will pick up my Mr. Pi Fang, I see that you don't have to be polite, the guest is as you please, or you choose first!" ”

Jiang Jie was waiting for this sentence, but he was still embarrassed, and his tone was a little weaker, "Let me choose first...... This...... This ......"

"Don't use this or that, I said you choose first, you choose first! If you don't choose, I will never choose! Fang En said loudly

Seeing that Fang En said it to death, Jiang Jie wanted to be polite to him again, but he was a little unusual, so he immediately pretended to be embarrassed again, and said slowly: "That...... I...... Only...... First...... I chose ......"

"That's right! It's you who chooses first! Fang En said again

"Let me choose...... What should I choose...... Location...... It's better to choose the time ......" Jiang Jie deliberately looked at Jin Chan and said in a tone of asking for help: "Brother Jin...... What do you say...... Adults can be satisfied...... Some......" In the eyes of Jin Cicada, Mr. Jiang has always thought that he has never seen a character who is resolute, far-sighted, wise and brave, Jiang Jie's appearance today is the same as a timid grandson It can be said that if it weren't for Yue Su and Jiang Jie telling him successively this morning, Jin Cicada would have to laugh now, this Mr. Jiang, grandson is too grandson

He also deliberately looked embarrassed and said, "Sir...... The adult just let the little one protect the adult, and he didn't say what to choose for the gentleman to refer to the details, anyway, the adult has already entrusted the negotiation matters to the gentleman, sir, you just look at it, save it when you choose the wrong one, and push it to me afterwards, I have to eat melons with you......"

The cooperation between the two people is basically seamless, Fang En can't see the clue at all Looking at the two bitter melon statues on the opposite side, one is indecisive, the other is timid and afraid, Fang En sneered in his heart, "Yue Su's subordinates are such a rabble, and they still want to win battles on the battlefield, it's just a fool's dream, I don't know where his reputation comes from, when I see his servants, I know his master, it seems that in these years, seeing is really seeing is believing and hearing is false."

Thinking of the end, Fang En couldn't help but sigh a little emotionally, what kind of bullshit court, the officials are all wretched, but those who really have the ability to stoop to become a thief Isn't it just a few years of reading broken books, what's the big deal! When the time and place are set, Lao Tzu will definitely beat you bastards to the ground, kneel down and call grandpa

Fang En thought wildly, Jiang Jie was still pretending to be his grandson, and he was embarrassed for a long time, and finally said: "Brother Fang, I thought about it for a while, and finally thought about what to choose......

"What do you want to choose? Let's just draw your debut first," Fang En said in a disdainful tone

"I choose the time," Jiang Jie said his intentions

Fang En was still arrogant, and when he heard the time chosen, he didn't even remember Zheng Zhilong's entrustment before leaving, and still said in a contemptuous tone: "What day are you going to book it on?" ”

"Eight months later, on July 18 of the second year of Chongjing," Jiang Jie said lightly

At present, it is eight months after the selection of November in the first year of Chongjing, and Jiang Jie has discussed with Yue Su that there are eight months, and the newly built naval warship will definitely be completed, and there should be some time to go into the water to practice, which is the safest and safest day

Hearing Jiang Jie's words, Fang En was about to nod, but then he remembered Zheng Zhilong's instructions when he came, and at the latest, Fang En's eyeballs almost didn't fall out of his sockets now, and he stammered: "This, this...... Isn't that a little too late......"

"Isn't it necessary to fight early and late, the decision on the rivers and lakes is set in a year or two, it is a common thing, not to mention that I have only been booked for eight months, and it is not long, Brother Fang, we have spoken before, and you also solemnly remark, let me choose first? Could it be that after Jiang Mou's election, Your Excellency will regret it" Speaking of this, Jiang Jie sighed deliberately, "Alas...... People say that Zheng Zhilong has never plundered the poor, and he is still a big man who believes in his word, this will not be a rumor, someone deceives the world and steals his name......"

Jiang Jie used the agitation method again, but this time, there was no embarrassment on his face, only the mocking posture of the winner

Hit the trick!

At this moment, Fang En finally realized that he was a trick, where was the other party indecisive before, it was clearly a cunning and incomparable plan, and he played beautifully

Fang En is not a fool, he is also a shrewd person under Zheng Zhilong, otherwise Zheng Zhilong would not let him come over, but now, although he knows that he has been tricked, what can he do?

Who told himself to talk so much, how do I have to go back and explain to the general scoop

If you want to go back, it's absolutely impossible, Fang En also understands that once he dares to go back, the negotiations will break down at that time, and if the court doesn't play with you, he will also publicize Zheng Zhilong's reputation as breaking his word and gaining weight, in this case, he will be even more complacent

Helpless, helpless! Fang En stiffened, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I promise you, I will decide where to go! ”

"Listen up, please!" Jiang Jie talked and laughed, waved his hand, and made a gesture of please

"The location is according to what I said before, when the sea area around Lianmenyu arrives, the chief scoop of my family will be waiting for the governor, take advantage of the time now, don't always go to the sea to cause trouble, practice well, lest the time comes, the killed will not even be able to float back half of the deck!" Fang En said the last words angrily, then "soared", stood up, and was about to leave

"Slow!" Jiang Jie saw that Fang En was leaving, and shouted immediately

"Huh? What else? Fang En glared at Jiang Jie and asked in surprise
