847 The Truth Gradually Unraveling XXI
She looked at Carl angrily, her big dark eyes glaring. On the white forehead, the thin green tendons were twisted into a ball.
"Boy! You've gone too far! What is the difference between such terms of yours and selling the entire Asian theater of operations?! With this kind of clause, I am dead today! Death in front of you! I will never accept it! She glared at Carl and said.
"Mr. Wan is the same!" She added.
Of course, there won't be any real fragrance or anything like that, Hong Wu did what he said. If Carl really signed such a treaty with Mr. Wan, which can be called a humiliating treaty, then Hongwu would definitely take her daughters to choose to sink herself.
It's so angry! If you can't fight and fight, and it is impossible to accept this kind of treaty that humiliates the country, then you can only keep your backbone and sink yourself! Hong Wu thought helplessly.
"Carl, are you sure you're not kidding me?" Mr. Wan asked with a serious face.
"Although I would love to tell you Mr. Wan, I am just joking. But sorry, this is the Empire's only universal treaty for civilizations that have not yet left the planet. Those civilizations encountered on the way to the expansion of the empire either chose to accept the treaty and submit, or, like the supernova that exploded in the universe, chose to succumb after a brilliant struggle. Karl shook his head at Mr. Wan and sighed.
"So, if we don't want to bear it alone, we have to sign this extremely harsh treaty?" Mr. Wan asked calmly.
From his voice, Carl didn't hear anything unusual.
"If Mr. Wan, you come to negotiate with me in your capacity as the governor of the Asian theater of operations, even if there will be changes to this agreement, there will not be much change in essence." Carl kindly reminded Mr. Wan.
"So Carl, what if I ask you for help as your personal friend?" Mr. Wan asked again.
"No strings attached, all the help was paid out of my own pocket, just as a perfect testimony to our friendship." Carl said to Mr. Wan without hesitation.
"Then of course we'll choose the second option!" When Hong Wu heard this, it was as if Carl's face was so angry that she didn't exist just now, and she immediately couldn't wait to say to Carl.
"Wait!" Mr. Wan immediately called out to Hong Wu.
He said apologetically to Carl, "Carl, can you let me and Hongwu discuss it for a while?" ”
"Yes, please." Karl made an inviting gesture to the two, and then left the main hall temporarily with the elites of the fleet staff, leaving Mr. Wan and Hongwu in the main hall to discuss.
As soon as the door of the main hall was closed, Hong Wu looked at Mr. Wan angrily and said, "Old Wan! Why don't you let me talk to the guy about the second plan?! In this kind of emergency, do you know that you are responsible for doing so! ”
"Don't be impatient, Your Majesty Hongwu." Mr. Wan raised his hand to stop Hongwu's eager questioning.
He glanced outside the door of the main hall and explained to Hong Wu in a slow voice: "Your Majesty Hong Wu, didn't you notice what Carl said just now?" ”
"What words? Don't sell it! In this situation, if a decision is made a minute earlier, the town guard on the front line may be able to rush out a group of civilians. The second method that the young man just said is obviously to make us owe him a big favor. As for how to return this favor after that? I'm prepared. But these are all things we should think about later, not now! Hong Wu unceremoniously sat on the coffee table in front of Mr. Wan and said.
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty Hongwu, you are right." Mr. Wan said perfunctorily to Hong Wu.
"Lao Wan! Don't be so perfunctory! Hong Wu shouted to Mr. Wan dissatisfied.
"I didn't perfunctory you, Your Majesty Hongwu. You're right! Mr. Wan looked at Hong Wu with a smile on his face and said.
Hong Wu was keenly aware of what Mr. Wan might have communicated with Carl before, and she looked at Mr. Wan even more dissatisfiedly and said, "I said Lao Wan! Are you going too far? As a ship's mother, you really can't notice anything wrong? What the hell did you say?! I didn't see any communication between you before! ”
Mr. Wan seemed very happy to see Hong Wu's anxious appearance. He smiled and said to Hong Wu: "Hehe, so you say... Hongwu, you ship mother, it's really not suitable to participate in politics! ”
"Yes, yes, yes! I knew that I was indeed not suitable to participate in politics as a ship's wife, because all those who dared to disobey me were all thrown into the prison of Jinyiwei. So tell me now, Lao Wan, and I want to know what kind of dirty deal you have reached! Hong Wu directly put his face in front of Mr. Wan, looked at the same black hair and black eyes, and said with a delicate and white face like himself.
"Can I understand that Your Majesty Hongwu is threatening me?" Mr. Wan also looked at Hong Wu's eyes and asked.
"Whatever you want! I have said a long time ago, don't think about deceiving your superiors and subordinates, and procrastinating. You know, in this Asian theater, I still have the final say! Hong Wu looked at Mr. Wan with a smile and said.
“。。。 I really can't help you... Mr. Wan complained helplessly, and then he began to explain to Hong Wu.
"Your Majesty Hongwu, in fact, Carl's meaning has been made very clear just now." He said to Hongwu.
"Huh? To elaborate, you know, I'm not really interested in politicians. Hongwu urged Mr. Wan.
"Okay, good, Your Majesty Hongwu, don't be impatient." After Mr. Wan calmed him down casually, he began to explain to Hong Wu in detail: "Your Majesty Hong Wu, didn't Carl ask me before, in what capacity did I come to talk to him? Is the governor of the Asian theater of operations? Or is it a personal friend? Right? ”
"Yes, that's right." Hongwu nodded.
"I started by speaking as the Governor of the Asian Theater of Operations, and then Karl gave us a treaty that we would never accept. Right? Mr. Wan asked again.
Mr. Wan didn't say that the previous harsh treaty was fine, but as soon as he said it, Hongwu's anger suddenly rose. She said angrily to Mr. Wan: "That's true, I have already said before that I will never accept that treaty!" This damn boy, I'm so good to him. I will give him whatever he wants, and I even plan to marry him one of my daughters, and the two parties will marry each other to deepen their relationship. As a result, the young man came up with such a harsh treaty for me! It's really infuriating! His mother! ”
