Chapter 26: Negotiations Break Down

Count Dole was opening his mouth and was about to talk about the conditions he had brewed a long time ago, but he didn't expect to be simply blocked by Xu Yi as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn't help coughing and looked at Xu Yi in surprise.

"What did you say, President Xu?" Count Dole's eyes widened with an incredulous look. "You said it couldn't be? I just said the first condition, and you said it couldn't be? Did you come to negotiate the conditions with me?"

"I'm just targeting the first one you proposed. Xu Yi responded indifferently. "Now that the private domains of the nobility have been abolished, there is no possibility of returning them. I would never agree to this. ”

Count Dole said angrily, "Then do you want to talk about it anymore?"

"Of course. Xu Yi smiled slightly. "Please tell me the other conditions that come next, we should still have room for negotiation. ”

Count Dole shook his hand angrily: "The first condition is the most important and basic condition, if you don't agree, we have no possibility of talking!"

"Oh?" Xu Yi smiled, stood up, and saluted Count Dole. "So that's all for today. When Count Dole has figured it out, we'll negotiate again. ”

Count Dole watched Xu Yishi turn around and leave after finishing the salute, without dragging the mud and water at all, and was stunned for a moment.

"President Xu, are you really going to leave like this? aren't you going to save your subordinates?"

Xu Yi turned around and glanced at Count Dole: "Of course my subordinates want to save them, but I will never agree to this condition." Count Dole, let's talk about it after you calm down and think about it. ”

Drop this sentence. Xu Yi left without turning his head.

Count Dole subconsciously raised his arm. wants to drag Xu Yi back. But after all, he held back.

As Xu Ye left the hall, the Duchess of Windsor came out through a small door in the back.

When Count Dole saw her, he immediately rushed over as if he had seen a savior, and said with a pleading face: "Auntie, how could this Xu Yi react like this?

The Duchess of Windsor also frowned slightly, looked at the direction Xu Yi left, pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "This President Xu is really an interesting person. But I'm curious, where did he get the confidence to negotiate with you like this?

"This ......," the expression on Count Dole's face changed several times. Still couldn't help but snort: "The escort team of their Chamber of Commerce...... Quite a strong ...... indeed."

The Duchess of Windsor glanced at the Earl of Dole, and snorted coldly: "That's just playing prestige in front of you waste wood subordinates, can it still be able to compete with those elites I brought? Besides, if you give him a few more dares, I don't believe he dares to really do it." ”

Count Dole hurriedly laughed, "Of course. Auntie, you're a big man from the Candela Empire. This new flying chamber of commerce has been seeking an opportunity to enter the Candela Empire for the past two years, and now that he has seen you appear, he can't even scold you, how dare he do anything to you. ”

"It's good to know. The Duchess of Windsor pondered for a moment and continued, "So be it, no matter what this guy says. You insist on these conditions and do not loosen. If he doesn't agree, don't let him go. ”

"So what if he really doesn't agree? We can't really kill his subordinates, can we......"

"Fool!" the Duchess of Windsor slashed out. "His men have fallen into our hands. He, the president, has never wanted to find a way to rescue him, and if it is preached, what prestige can he, the president, have. Don't you have that thing called a newspaper here? Go find a few newspapers and put this on the list, and I don't think he'll dare to drag it on. ”

Count Dole's eyes lit up: "Auntie, your idea is really high. There are a few newspapers in the south of our principality that are aimed at us people, and I will go to them to publish this matter. ”

After saying that, Count Dole hesitated again: "But we have not done a very glorious thing in this matter, if it really appears in the newspapers...... I'm afraid there will be more people scolding me......"

"Idiot!" the Duchess of Windsor couldn't help but scold again: "You don't even have the ability to say black as white, how did you become a nobleman for so many years?"

Count Dole shrunk his neck and smiled awkwardly: "Okay, I'll figure it out, aunt, you don't have to worry." ”

"Hmph, instead of worrying about your side, I might as well worry about the subordinates of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce that you caught. I always feel that this Xu Yi definitely doesn't want to give up his subordinates like this, you have to be careful that he finds a way to rescue those subordinates by other means. The Duchess of Windsor reminded.

"Well, I understand. But aunt, I don't think there's anything to worry about. There are so many elites brought by Grand Wizard Randy and you to sit in person, not to mention that it is impossible to rescue people from their hands, I am afraid that they will not even dare to do anything to them. Count Dole laughed.

"Hmph! forgive him for not daring. ”

###

Xu Yi, who walked out of the gate of Count Dole's private manor, did not go too far, and directly launched his magic to use teleportation magic in front of the two personal guards who opened the door.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Ye appeared in a small wood.

At this time, there were fifty guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team in the woods, and suddenly saw a figure appear in front of him, and all of them instantly picked up their weapons and aimed at Xu Yi.

"It's me, what's the situation?" Xu Yi raised his hand and asked.

Seeing that it was Xu Yi, the guards breathed a sigh of relief.

Captain Hart, who personally led the group of guards in ambush here, pointed to a wooden fence not far from the woods and replied, "I have received information from the Akali Institute, but it is intermittent and not complete. ”

"There must be a high-level magician around her, and of course it is impossible for her to send out magic signals continuously. Xu Yi nodded, and came to the three young men who were surrounded by the guards and wore the uniforms of researchers at the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. "What does the message from Akali say?"

These three researchers were brought by Xu Yi when he left the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce yesterday, and they were actually members of Akali's research team, because they had been engaged in other work before, but they were spared from being arrested by Count Dole.

They had been brought here because of a knee-high instrument that the three of them were now closely monitoring.

The device had always emitted a faint pale cyan magic light, flickering twice from time to time, and it looked rather strange in this gloomy grove.

This device is a communication receiver developed by Akali's research team based on magical resonance technology, and if it senses magic fluctuations at a specific fluctuation frequency, it can reveal some information that seems chaotic and incomprehensible to others.

But if this information falls into the hands of the Akali research team, it can be analyzed through a special procedure developed by guò to produce useful information.

Originally, this thing was researched by Akali and used in some places where it was inconvenient to use magic call boxes, and the range of use was not very wide.

But it is very appropriate to use it here now to receive some messages from Akali, who was in the private estate of Count Dole at this time.

A researcher handed Xu Yi a piece of paper to record the message.

Xu Yi took it and took a look, and found that the records on it were indeed intermittent, and they were all extremely brief messages.

But through this information, some useful information can be summarized.

According to the information conveyed by Akali, she and the other subordinates of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce were gathered at this time, imprisoned in a cellar in the private estate of Count Dole, although the situation could not be said to be good, but it was not bad, at least no one was harmed.

Seeing this, Xu Yi was relieved.

His only fear was that Count Dole didn't take these people seriously and would torture them first.

Now it seems that Count Dole, as Xu Yi guessed, at least maintained restraint on these people until the conditions between the two sides were not negotiated.

After reading it, Xu Yi turned to Hart and asked, "How is the terrain survey in the manor?"

Hart smiled, took out a map from his arms and spread it out in front of Xu Yi.

"We surveyed the manor more than a dozen times in the sky with the Guò Magic Airship, but they didn't react at all, it was really careless. ”

Xu Yi rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that the people in this world were not used to the existence of magic airships, and who would have nothing to guard against enemies in the sky.

Looking down at the map, he found that the map was indeed very detailed, marking almost every part of the private estate of the Earl of Dole, not even a rockery or a tree.

"Look, Lord. Based on the analysis of the information coming from the Akali Research Institute, we believe that she and the others should be in this place. Hart gestured to a position in the middle of the private estate to the north.

On the map, there is only a small rockery and a small wooded forest on the surface, and there is no place where people can be detained.

"There should be a large cellar in the ground. When we were exploring the sky, we found that someone had entered a rockery from here and had not come out for a long time. Hart added.

"So this should be the entrance. Xu Yi nodded, and then asked, "What about the defense forces around here?"

Hart shook his head: "Maybe most of them are concentrated underground, so on the surface it is not too tight, and probably only less than fifty guards can be seen." ”

"Okay, now that the situation is generally clear, then when the backup arrives, we will start the operation immediately. Xu Yi slapped his face on the map, his eyes swept over the faces of the other guards around him, and said in a deep voice. (To be continued......)
