Chapter 255: Andre
"I don't want to mention my request, but I'd love to hear what you think. In the office, Wright was sitting precariously, as if he were facing a great enemy. However, out of respect, although he would lose the initiative by doing so, he still wanted to hear the other party's "sincerity" first.
The person opposite raised his eyebrows, and a rather playful smile hung on the corner of his mouth: "Do you really want me to say?"
Wright nodded.
"That's what you told me to say, it's none of my business. The man on the other side chose a comfortable position and leaned back in his chair, "The condition I gave is that our side will compensate you for Ambrella's losses according to the order, and as for those that you have recovered, we are not responsible for compensation, and this matter is over." ”
Although he had already been mentally prepared, after hearing it, Wright couldn't help frowning: "That's all?"
"That's right. The man on the other side moved his buttocks to make himself sit more comfortably, "We will compensate you for your losses, and you will raise your noble hands as if this incident never happened, isn't this a good thing for you, me, and everyone?"
"Too little!" Wright didn't beat around the bush, but said bluntly, facing the person in front of him, there was no use in detouring around the bend except wasting time, "To tell the truth, money, we are not short of Ambrera, if the Federation can only give these compensations, then we can only offer a reward through other channels, anyway, it is not a secret to me at all about the important people in the family of troublemakers." ”
"Haha, don't be so ruthless!" The expression of the person on the other side was relaxed, as if Wright was not threatening those second-generation officials in the federation at all, but a cat and a dog in a corner, "Negotiation and negotiation, isn't it just that I will slash you, and you will stab me, if there is anything dissatisfied, we can continue to discuss! Come, my conditions have been said, and it is your turn to say your request." ”
"My request is that we can do without compensation, but the Federation must remove all the so-called pirates who have been planted in the waters near Ambrera, and help us eliminate the remaining pirates. ”
"How can this be done!" The man on the other side suddenly became agitated, straightened up, and his tone and demeanor seemed as if he was the sufferer, the one who was hurt, and Wright had become a murderer to be spurned for.
What's even more speechless is that it is clear that the Federation is the one who commits the bandits, and he should be punished and condemned, but when it comes to his mouth, Wright has become the party that is at the loss: "Lord Wright, you are cutting off people's money, it's too immoral, right?"
can say that the robbery behavior is so reasonable, and even questioned that the owner is immoral if he does not let the robbery, which shows his thick skin.
Although he knew that the other party was difficult to entangle, Wright never expected that he would be so shameless, and that he could say that the black was white, and that he would beat him upside down.
"It seems that the Federation is not sincere, then we just need to take other ways, I hope you take precautions, don't be careless by the swarming adventure hunters to rob people. Oh, by the way, I forgot to say, I will definitely mark a sky-high price for this bounty, don't worry about no one going, please believe me, I'm really rich. ”
The other party is a scoundrel, and Wright naturally has a way to deal with it.
Since the Federation is willing to send people, it means that they are also afraid that Wright will recklessly release a bounty, and if they grasp this weakness, Wright will naturally seize it.
Maybe he felt that what he said was too scoundrel, and it really didn't look like he came to negotiate, but it seemed like he came to deliberately find fault, or maybe he was afraid that Wright would be desperate and out of control, and the person opposite immediately put on a smiling face: "It's too unrealistic to withdraw them all, and the cost of helping you clear out the pirates is too high, Lord Wright, although you said that you don't want to compensate, but these demands you made are much more ruthless than compensating for losses, so you can't negotiate?"
Of course, Wright knew that the Federation could not fully agree to his request, and the reason why he still said this was that in addition to upholding the principle of asking for a sky-high price, he wanted to put an end to the other party's rogue behavior, and at this time, the goal had been achieved, so naturally he would not continue to insist.
After fierce bargaining, the Federation finally agreed to withdraw its own "pirates", and promised not to fight Ambrera for half a year, as for helping to suppress the bandits, yes, but Ambrera had to bear two-thirds of the military expenses and pensions.
At the beginning, I copied the nest of the troublemaker's house, in fact, there was not much property recovered, strictly calculated, if such compensation is only calculated in terms of money, the Federation also made some money, but Wright didn't suffer a loss, after all, he saved manpower and could do other things, and without the pirate Ambrella, he could earn more, and everyone was happy.
After talking about the matter, Wright relaxed a lot and said with a smile: "Mr. Andre, it is really not a pleasant thing to negotiate with you, and it is better not to have this kind of thing happen in the future." ”
The person opposite, with an old face and white hair, was Andre, the butler next to Keynes, couldn't help but laugh after listening to Wright's words: "I feel the same way, I don't want to negotiate with you in the future, it's too brain-consuming!"
After a brief greeting, Wright asked, "Mr. Andre, what happened after you disappeared, and why are you now an envoy of the Federation?"
Speaking of the past, Andre did not have the slightest look of chagrin on his face, but was relaxed: "In fact, when I decided to do that, I had already thought that I was likely not to die well, plus I was old and didn't want to stay in that position for the rest of my life, so when I was ousted from power by those little cubs, I was not surprised at all, and I didn't take precautions in advance, but I still prepared a way back." ”
"However, it may be that my character is better, when I was arrested and imprisoned, someone actually stood up and spoke for me, and that person was still a real power, those little cubs did not dare to exonerate easily, and in the end I was sentenced to live, but never to set foot in the career. ”
"Externally, all my information is hidden and closely monitored. After all, although I am an old bone and a little useless, they are still afraid that I will run to the Empire in a fit of anger. After more than ten years, they probably think that even if I run to the Empire, it won't matter much now, so recently they have loosened their restrictions on me and allowed me to move freely. ”
"I was sent here this time, or I was entrusted by my savior, otherwise I wouldn't want to run around at such an old age!"
After listening to Andre's calm description, Wright couldn't help but shake his head.
"Why, think everything is too ordinary to fit my legendary identity?" said Andre teased.
"No!" Wright shook his head, "I'm laughing at those people's eyes, with your intelligence, no matter how old you are, you can't be despised by others!, Mr. Andrew, now, as the lord of Ambrera, I sincerely invite you to serve with us, I wonder if you can say yes?"
