Chapter 277: Negotiations begin
On the shore of the Moon Lake in Ningbo, in the courtyard of the Wang family's house, there is a huge table of eight immortals in the living room, and a hot pot copper stove is placed on the table, which is steaming at this time, and the water in it is already boiling.
"Don't look at it, move the chopsticks to get the meat, the weather is a little wet and cold, eat something to pad your stomach first, mutton is the most suitable for winter, warm up, Wenxing, you just came from Jia Island, you must not catch a cold." Guo Yu picked up a few slices of mutton with chopsticks and began to stir up the hot pot.
The crowd began to move their chopsticks.
There are not many people at the table, but they are all Guo Yu's henchmen, Qian Wenxing is now the prime minister of South China, the plenipotentiary representative and leader of the South China State in this negotiation with Japan, and Mu Sheng is the deputy leader.
Wu Erzhu also ran over secretly, but Ningbo is not far from Suzhou, a few hours' drive, and he will come, so he can't delay anything.
Zhou Wu came over to personally take charge of Guo Yu's safety, and at the same time brought his own agents to be responsible for the security of the negotiating team.
The people who can sit here and eat are these five people, and as for the other members of the negotiation team, many people don't know that Guo Yu has secretly come to Ningbo.
"Your Majesty, what do you think is the bottom line of our negotiations?" Qian Wenxing asked Guo Yu after eating a few bites.
He has a heavier task, and he will start negotiations and consultations tomorrow, he needs to know what Guo Yu's expectations are for this negotiation, leadership satisfaction is the highest requirement for doing things, Qian Wenxing is a shrewd person, in the predecessor of Nanhuaguo, when he was the person in charge of urban construction, he showed it vividly.
It's not that he is sleek, but this person has a mind to do things, and he does things very well, what he should do, he must work hard to do things well, and if he can't get it right, ask Guo Yu to decide, never do anything beyond the bounds, and he can also coordinate the relationship between all parties, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
is not impatient or impatient, much better than those who are full of passion, but like to make their own ideas and express themselves, so in the end Guo Yu chose him as the prime minister, in fact, there are four or five people who can be in this position at the beginning, and there are four or five people with enough qualifications, but Guo Yu valued Qian Wenxing's way of doing things and made him the prime minister.
"If you want to talk about the bottom line, there is really no bottom line, Wenxing, you work hard to do it, give them a lion mouth first, don't you look at the face when they proposed those treaties to China, bring all the conditions they can want, don't show them mercy, take back the land that should be recovered, don't be soft when you should ask for money, mention any uneven treaties, and let the Japanese feel the feeling of being bullied, anyway, now we are not in a hurry, and in the end it is all earned in the bowl." Guo Yu said in a relaxed tone.
"Yes, the knife must be ruthless, and the Japanese will be bloodletted, so that they will know that it hurts, so that they will not jump around in the future." Wu Erzhu said with a pout.
"That Wenxing knows what to do, but I'm afraid that the mediation team will be biased towards the Japanese, and if we put pressure on us at that time, the negotiations may reach an impasse." Qian Wenxing said.
"It doesn't matter if the talk collapses, slowly fight and boil slowly, see who can survive who in the end, how can Nanhua make money according to business, and don't delay our side of things, Japan has been blocked for a day, and the losses are astronomical, and they can't afford to pass the test." Guo Yu said.
Since some specific details of the negotiations were said, Qian Wenxing and Mu Sheng returned to the Yuehua Hotel where the delegation stayed very late, after all, Guo Yu was unwilling to show up, and Qian Wenxing and the others were not easy to live here, and where the other members of the delegation lived, the British, French, and American mediation teams and the Japanese also stayed at the Yuehua Hotel, which was also convenient for the two sides to negotiate.
Wu Erzhu finally left, and drove back to Suzhou with the escort overnight, after all, it was a very moment, and it was not easy for him to leave the army, and besides, there was nothing for him here, so he went back directly.
Zhou Wu stayed, he served Guo Yu for the longest time, and knew Guo Yu's habits best, so he naturally stayed to take care of Guo Yu's life in Ningbo during the negotiation.
"Your Majesty, why don't you arrange two maids, the guards are always careless." Zhou Wu followed Guo Yu to walk by the Moon Lake and said to Guo Yu.
Guo Yu drank some wine, and after talking for so long, they were a little excited, so they took Zhou Wu to walk around the Moon Lake.
"I won't be able to live here for long, it is estimated that it will not be more than ten days and half a month, and the negotiations will be eyebrow-raising, and at that time, maybe I will move somewhere, and the people who come will leave before they are familiar with it, trouble." Guo Yu said.
Zhou Wu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he looked like he wanted to say something.
Guo Yu's eyesight is so sharp, although the lights around him are dim, but with Guo Yu's current eyesight, he can naturally see the changes in Zhou Wu's expression.
"There's something hard to tell me." Guo Yu said.
"Oh, the Bai sisters are still in Yifu Garden, if you don't like others and are not familiar with them, do you ask them to serve you." Zhou Wu said.
"Bai Qiuju, Bai Dongmei, do they still live in Yifu Garden, how are they recently." Guo Yu asked.
When Guo Yu left, the Bai sisters stayed in Shanghai, and Guo Yu called them over when he left, telling them that they could continue to live in Yifu Garden, and that no one would move here, and they would keep one as a foothold for Guo Yu's possible return in the future.
At that time, Bai Qiuju didn't say anything and left silently.
Guo Yu also thought that the Bai family sisters would move out, and he, the big demon who nominally occupied the Bai family sisters, was gone, they were not like birds out of the cage, they went out to fly freely, how do you know what Zhou Wu meant, the Bai family sisters did not move out, and now they still live in Yifu Garden.
"It's still the same, I'm busy with the affairs of the opera club, and now Miss Bai Qiuju is also the most famous character in the Republic of China, and her reputation is not under the rule of the four famous opera masters, and she is called the Chrysanthemum Fairy."
"Since they're fine, it's not good to call her over, so forget it."
Zhou Wu sank for a while and said: "Actually, the white girl is still living in the Yifu Garden, which means that she also has a heart for Her Majesty, otherwise she would have moved away a long time ago, besides, the white girl has lived in our house for so long, even if Her Majesty has really not done anything to the white girl, but outsiders will know." ”
"Now in the whole of Jiangsu, and even in the entire Republic of China, people with heads and faces know that Miss Bai Qiuju is from our house, with the prestige of His Majesty in the Republic of China, who dares to be disrespectful to Miss Bai, outsiders have long regarded Miss Bai as His Majesty's person."
Guo Yu stood by the water for a while, and said, "You ask people to send a letter to their sisters, just say that I asked them to come to Ningbo, a few days together, if they are willing to come, it is naturally interesting in their hearts, if they don't come, then it is fate, and then you arrange for them to go out of the house, don't delay the youth of others, I think after a long time, people will naturally know that our relationship is not what others imagine." ”
In fact, Guo Yu doesn't understand these things about men and women, in fact, sometimes the things of men and women are not clear, how to calculate right, how to calculate wrong, there is no fixed number at all, sometimes it is really impulsive, and he makes a decision, and he may go on for the rest of his life, in the end, feelings are not arithmetic, there is no reason at all.
Speaking of how much Guo Yu really loves these women for himself, it's really hard to say, don't say anything like Guo Yu's ruthlessness, now Guo Yu's women are all born of desire, and there is no vigorous love drama, they are all committed to Guo Yu, and they slowly become like this.
Guo Yu is not a ruthless person, and modern concepts also make him have a sense of responsibility for women who are committed to him, so he always has to give them an explanation.
Now I have a few women, Wu Xiaoni, Hu Yunyuan, Sun Yaoqin, Hanxiang Hanyu, two little girls, Wang Ling'er, are all good women who are one in a thousand and one in a thousand, and there is nothing unsatisfactory about them.
What is love, it is too ethereal, Guo Yu's understanding of love has been much more realistic, in fact, women want to find someone who can be entrusted for life, and men find a woman they are willing to pay, that's all.
It's a bit messy, in fact, it doesn't make much sense to Guo Yu now, if he wants to find a woman, with his current situation, what kind of can't he find, there is no need to dwell on one or two women, but since the Bai family sisters are already involved with themselves, it is okay to go with the flow, men, that's it.
December 23, 9:45 a.m., a day that is not different, but that future generations need to remember.
In the conference room on the second floor of the Yuehua Hotel in Ningbo, the negotiations between Nanhua and Japan officially began, with a round conference table in the middle, and representatives sitting on both sides of the negotiations.
The mediation team was represented by the Deputy Prime Minister and Privy Council Secretary of the United Kingdom. Clegg, French Deputy Foreign Minister Myers, U.S. Consul to Japan Williams.
South China was represented by Prime Minister Qian Wenxing and Vice Premier Mu Sheng.
On the Japanese side, Prime Minister Masashi Terauchi personally led the team, and the main members were Foreign Minister Ichiro Honno and Cabinet Secretary Hideo Kodama Hideo.
Of course, this is only the main personnel of the negotiating team, and there are many more staff involved on both sides, including translators, record keepers, security personnel, and so on.
Now the Yuehua Hotel has been completely chartered by the South China Negotiation Group, and as a fixed place for negotiations, the Japanese and the Trilateral Mediation Team live elsewhere.
As soon as the negotiations began, the atmosphere was not quite right, the smell of gunpowder on both sides was very strong, and it felt even more intense than on the battlefield.
"I protest that your South China Kingdom shamelessly invaded our Great Japanese Empire and attacked Tokyo, causing tens of thousands of civilians to be killed and injured, and hundreds of thousands of people to be left homeless."
"Attacking the military ports of our Great Japanese Empire, causing heavy damage to the Imperial property, is a shameless act, a sneak attack."
"Just a few days ago, your fleet bombed Tokyo again, causing a large number of casualties among our government personnel, and our cabinet ministers, Prime Minister Goto Shinpei, and Minister of Justice Matsumuro were unfortunately killed in that bombing, and you Nanhua must give us an explanation for the Japanese Empire."
