Chapter 160: Arrogant Capital
Xu Yi's gaze swept over the hall and saw several faces full of strong military atmosphere.
Of course, there is also a guy who looks round and chubby, and at first glance is quite kind.
It's just that mixed in with these guys who only carved the big words of "being a soldier" on their faces, even he was contaminated with a bit of murderous aura.
Feeling the murderous gazes projected by the people around him, Xu Yi smiled and walked over to the middle-aged man with a kind smile on his face, like a businessman.
"Major General Tovka, it's a pleasure to see you again. ”
The middle-aged man who looked like a businessman known as Major General Tovka wiped away the imperceptible trace of murder in his eyes, and stretched out his hand to Xu Yi with a smile.
"President Xu, I'm glad to see you here. ”
Xu Yi nodded, glanced at the people next to him again, and asked, "These should be the generals of your Sark Kingdom Military Department, right?"
Hearing Xu Yi's question, one of them looked like he was only in his early forties, and it was the youngest middle-aged man among these people who snorted coldly.
"I thought Xu Yi was a great character, but he was just an inconspicuous young boy. ”
Xu Yi glanced at him, ignored his provocation at all, turned his head to Major General Tovka and smiled: "It seems that your country's military department has no sincerity in cooperating, so my trip seems to be in vain, goodbye." ”
Seeing that Xu Yi actually turned around to leave, Major General Tovka was startled, and hurriedly grabbed Xu Yi, and turned his head to look at the middle-aged man who had just spoken. smiled at Xu Yi again: "President Xu." Don't get me wrong. The sincerity of our cooperation is very strong, and there is absolutely no falsehood, otherwise it would not have been possible to send so many people to come here to meet you, do you say?"
Xu Yi looked down at Major General Tovka's hand holding his arm, then looked up at the middle-aged man, and said calmly: "If you really have sincere cooperation, please don't waste your time talking nonsense." ”
"Of course, of course. Although he knew that Xu was just pretending. But hearing Xu Yi's tone softened, Major General Tovka couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.
Being able to officially contact Xu Yi this time can be said to have made the Sark Kingdom pay a great price, if Xu Yi is allowed to leave like this because of a word, then Major General Tovka can't imagine what will happen next.
In fact, he didn't agree with the military department to send these guys to participate in this negotiation at the beginning, but the military department shoehorned them over on the grounds that they were all legion generals who had actually participated in battles on the front line and knew the real needs of legionnaires for military magic machines.
As expected, when I saw Xu Yi, these senior generals of the legion who had suffered a big loss under the large number of military magic mechanical men that had been equipped by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce for the Zhenbei Army of the Lampari Kingdom. Immediately, as if he had met a mortal enemy, he unabashedly revealed his hostility to Xu Yi.
If this is a normal negotiation. In doing so, they can also be regarded as giving Xu Yi a disgrace and laying a good foundation for the next negotiations.
However, this negotiation has been extremely unequal between the two sides from the beginning, because this is completely the unilateral demand of the Shack Kingdom for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can completely care about this negotiation, so what qualifications does the Sark Kingdom have to show the other party?
Of course, Major General Tovka didn't expect Xu Yi's temper to be so big, and he actually put on such a tough attitude and put on a posture that you like to talk about or not.
It's a pity that Xu Yi can talk about this negotiation as much as he likes, but the Sark Kingdom must talk, and it must be negotiated to Xu Yi's satisfaction.
Thinking of this, Major General Tovka could only smile bitterly in his heart, thinking that it was really not a good errand that the military department handed over to him this time.
Finally pulled Xu Yi back to his seat, Major General Tovka groaned slightly, and decided to follow what Xu Yi said, without wasting time, and directly took out the agreement that the military department had already drawn up and handed it to Xu Yi.
"President Xu, here is the list of military magic machinery that we have asked your Chamber of Commerce to purchase this time, please take a look. Major General Tovka handed Xu Yi a part of the agreement and carefully observed Xu Yi's expression.
Xu Yi took the list and looked at it carefully, and the expression on his face did not change at all during the period.
It's just that after reading the list, Xu Yi groaned slightly, but shook his head.
"Major General Tovka, this is a bit different from what we have discussed before. We don't plan to sell long-range magic guns at this time, so it's impossible to provide them to you. ”
Major General Tovka smiled and said, "This can be discussed." Last time, we were just talking with a middleman, and it was always a little inconvenient, but this time we were finally able to sit down together and talk face-to-face, of course, we can talk more, are you right, President Xu?"
"No, since we have already confirmed the list last time, then don't change it lightly. Major General Tovka, by doing so, you will give me the impression that you are not keeping your promises. Xu Yi said coldly.
Major General Tovka looked stunned and felt a little unhappy in his heart.
As a major general of the military department of the Sark Kingdom, although he is usually in charge of logistics, he has dealt with other businessmen a lot, and has met all kinds of people, but it is the first time he has seen a guy like Xu Yi.
"President Xu, isn't there any room for negotiation?" asked Major General Tovka with a frown.
Xu Yi put down the list and looked directly at Major General Tovka, showing a hint of surprise.
"If I'm not mistaken, before I came, we had already agreed, and this time I came just to formally sign an agreement with you on behalf of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and nothing else was involved, right?"
Major General Tovka was speechless.
The two parties did agree on this before, because during this period, the two parties had held many discussions in private and basically determined the content of the agreement.
But even if it was determined before, can't it be flexible now?
He didn't believe that Xu Ye, as the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, didn't even understand this.
Perhaps seeing Major General Tovka's thoughts, Xu Yi continued: "I understand your thoughts. But at least for now. We have no plans to work together. Major General Tovka. Do you see what I mean?"
Hearing Xu Yi's words, Major General Tovka was not only not disappointed, but his eyes lit up.
At least not yet? Does that mean there will be in the future?
"Haha, since President Xu insists on you, then I won't talk nonsense. Major General Tovka took back the list from Xu Yi's hand and took out a pen to cross out the column of long-range magic artillery.
This thing was originally marked out by the military department as a temptation, and Xu Yi disagreed, but it didn't have much impact.
This time the two sides cooperated. Whether it is for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce or the Kingdom of Sark, it is a mutual temptation.
It can even be said that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can express its willingness to cooperate with the Sark Kingdom, and the possibility of selling military magic machinery to the Sark Kingdom is enough to make the Sark Kingdom military department very happy.
You know, before, they could only use very difficult smuggling channels in Guò to sneak a very small amount of military magic machinery from a few lords of the Lampari Kingdom and the Duchy of Stantin.
Now that the New Flyers are willing to sell military magic machinery directly to the Kingdom of Sark, the benefits are far greater than that.
Xu Yi took the list and looked at it again, and finally asked Major General Tovka for the agreement drawn up by the military headquarters of the Kingdom of Sark, and raised a few small questions in the agreement. I happily signed my name on it.
On the face of it, the process of signing the agreement seems to have been sloppy. But in reality, the deal involved was a big deal.
According to the content of the agreement, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will provide various military magic machines with a total value of more than five million gold coins to the Sark Kingdom.
Although it only involves some low-end military magic machinery, the first transaction between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Sark Kingdom has exceeded five million gold coins, which is not a small amount.
After signing the agreement, Xu Yi did not stay at all and left Major General Tovka.
Major General Tovka only pretended to hold on for a while, and let Xu Yi leave.
After Xu Yi left Mayor Puyol's private estate, the original solemn and oppressive atmosphere in the hall instantly faded.
The middle-aged general who had opened his mouth to provoke Xu Yi before spat viciously in the direction where Xu Yi left, and said hatefully: "Phew! The villain has a will! Isn't it just that he has made a few novelties, and he dares to be so arrogant." ”
The other generals glanced at each other and smiled bitterly.
Although it is very simple to say, Xu Yi just made up a few novelties, but the Kingdom of Sark is not so embarrassed by these novelties that it is now unbearable, and it is even almost facing a crisis in the kingdom.
Speaking of arrogance, Xu Yihuan does have the qualifications to be arrogant.
It can't be helped, the role of military magic machines in combat is unmatched, as evidenced by the countless battles that have taken place between the kingdoms of Sark and Lampari before.
Now the military of the Kingdom of Sark has always agreed with this concept, if the army of the Kingdom of Sark is not equipped with military magic machinery, then in the face of the attack of the Kingdom of Lampari, there is no possibility of victory at all.
This problem cannot be solved by the soldiers' desperate efforts.
So this time, when the military department obtained the information, Xu Yi revealed his willingness to sell military magic machinery to the Sark Kingdom, the military department was excited, and vigorously launched a private negotiation with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
If it weren't for the sudden declaration of war by the Lampari Kingdom that disrupted the plan, I am afraid that they would have already owed this agreement to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
In front of being able to equip the soldiers with the coveted military magic machinery, Xu Yi is arrogant and nothing.
"But I always felt that something was wrong. A middle-aged man with half of his hair white looked at the direction Xu Yi was leaving, and said in a deep voice with a little doubt: "Is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce really willing to sell us something like military magic machinery that can play a decisive role?
"Well, I've always thought it would be a trap. Another middle-aged general also chimed in. "Maybe the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is not happy to sell us these military magic machines at all, and even what they sell us is some rags. ”
"Yes, I think so, too. ”
"yes, no matter how you think about it, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce shouldn't do this. ”
......
Listening to the discussions of his colleagues, Major General Tovka glanced at the agreement signed by Xu Yi's name in his hand, carefully put it away, then looked at his colleagues and said with a wry smile: "I said everyone, don't you still understand? Even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce just sells us a bunch of garbage, we can only accept it." In other words, even if we knew it was a trap, we could only jump into it. You must know that the military is willing to pay any price for anything you can get your hands on the military magic machinery. Because we ...... There is simply no choice. ”
The hall fell silent for a moment.
Everyone stopped talking and looked at each other, and they all found that the expressions on the faces of the opposite side were full of helplessness. (To be continued......)
