Chapter 1299: Compromise, Sign, Leave a Nail
The middle-aged man compromised, he had to compromise, Jiang Xingchen's hand was too ruthless to repay the other way, the hundreds of millions of people on Ahong Island, once the plague spread, the consequences would be more serious than those on Sizhou Island. No matter how strong he is, he represents the interests of the majority of high-level people, and no one will support him in the face of this existential issue. And they don't have drugs like penicillin, and Jiang Xingchen will be able to rebel everywhere with a single word.
So even if he has a monstrous hatred, he has to grit his teeth and accept his fate, otherwise not to mention the high-level of Ahong Island, his own family will unite to take him down.
Seeing that the middle-aged man agreed, the high-level officials also breathed a sigh of relief and urged him to hurry up and write a letter to Tong Lao.
Soon after, the guards came with the news that the imperial city was in chaos, and the impact of this leaflet was too great, not to mention the civilians. Nobles, merchants, and even people from the army raised their voices and demanded to agree to Jiang Xingchen's conditions.
The high-level people broke out in a cold sweat when they heard it, and once the lord did not agree, it would immediately be a big mess. If this is still the case in the imperial city, it is even more conceivable in the cities around the world.
Then the high-level officials immediately sent people out to appease the people, and sent messages to various places, and the lord had agreed to Jiang Xingchen's conditions.
In fact, the impact of this leaflet was far more serious than the top brass had expected, and there were already mass riots in some cities, and many people were even packing up their belongings to take refuge in the mountains......
The red-faced old man hurried all the way, but he came across this flyer halfway through.
"It's over!" After reading it, the red-faced old man's first reaction was that it was completely over, a high-altitude bombing was enough to kill, coupled with such a vicious move, the lord would definitely not be able to withstand this blow. Even if the Lord can bear it. The high-level people can't bear it, and the cities around the country can't bear it.
Sure enough. It didn't take long for a snow eagle to catch up and order him to take full responsibility for negotiating with Jiang Xingchen. Agree to the other party's terms, but try to negotiate as much as possible.
"Hey" The red-faced old man sighed heavily, what does it mean to try to fight for it, it's not unwilling. He could imagine the mood of the Lord at that time, and it must have been so uncomfortable that blood was dripping.
A day later, the red-faced old man rushed to the port. What he saw made him depressed for a while, the port had not yet been destroyed, but it was as deserted as a dead city.
Sitting on the only three-story treasure ship in the port, the red-faced old man didn't say a word. The fat man who was in charge of the negotiation before sat next to him and wiped a cold sweat. He was almost frightened by Jiang Xingchen's hand, for fear that the lord would think that it was caused by his unfavorable negotiations.
"Don't be nervous, it's none of your business!" the red-faced old man glanced at the fat man and said lightly.
"Whew~" The fat man breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to the red-faced old man about the situation in the past few days. Now there are four ports destroyed, this is the fifth, and he also chased Jiang Xingchen's fleet all the way down. There is another flotilla that is heading in the opposite direction...... The ports of the coastal cities were already empty, and Jiang Xingchen made it even worse after he sent out the news that he was going to spread the plague, and many people fled. There were also frequent riots, with food and necessities being snapped up......
The red-faced old man waved his hand to stop when he heard half of it, there was no need to say more, the last few cities he passed by. Which is not the case......
At noon that day, the red-faced old man met Jiang Xingchen's fleet and boarded the first boat.
Both sides are in a hurry. There are no detours around each other, and when you come up, you will get straight to the point. Jiang Xingchen is still the original condition. The specific amount of compensation was also given, 10 million yuan. And specified that the sea god marrow is 1,000 catties.
The red-faced old man's first request was for Jiang Xingchen to stop bombing. Then he proposed that 10 million yuan of stone was too high, and 1,000 catties of sea god essence was too much, and Ah Hong Island couldn't take it at all, and finally proposed that there were really no relics of Dashang.
Jiang Xingchen sneered in his heart, he didn't give up at this time, and directly told the red-faced old man, 10 million yuan stone is too much, but don't forget that there are still fourteen ports under our guns, plus a thousand seven-story treasure ships in the river, you think about which one is appropriate.
A thousand catties of sea god essence cannot be less, and it must be delivered at one time...... As for the relics of the Great Merchant, Jiang Xingchen hesitated for a moment, and finally relented and let the other party go.
The red-faced old man couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he just fought for it according to the instructions of the lord, and he didn't think that Jiang Xingchen would give up the relics of the Great Shang.
"It seems that he really guessed before, and I didn't let go of this situation, he thought he had guessed wrong!" The red-faced old man endured the excitement in his heart, made a look of embarrassment, and wanted to fight for the Seagod Essence again.
Seeing this, Jiang Xingchen stood up directly, and said with a cold face: "I have already given up a condition, if you still have to make an inch, there is no need to talk about it!"
The red-faced old man hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't misunderstand, sir, I want to write back to ask for instructions!"
"Hmph, don't you even send someone who is in charge, is this the sincerity you say?" Jiang Xingchen sneered and turned his head and walked out, and the red-faced old man immediately shouted: "Lord calm your anger, sign, I'll sign now!"
Then the two sides immediately drafted an agreement, signed their own names, and agreed to honor the first and third articles within three days, and the black-clothed man and the black-robed man and their families sent it as soon as possible.
Leaving from Jiang Xingchen's head boat, the red-faced old man finally smiled, and the depression along the way dissipated a lot, Jiang Xingchen's abandonment of the Great Shang Ruins was definitely an unexpected joy. Although it is difficult to hand over 10 million yuan of stone at once, it can be exchanged for the remaining fourteen ports and a thousand seven-story treasure ships piled up in the river, and the lord will not say anything.
It was a thousand catties of sea god essence, and he was a little distressed, and this time he was taken away by Jiang Xingchen. But the results of such negotiations are already very good......
Jiang Xingchen stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the three-story treasure ship that was gradually moving away, and sneered.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" The three men in black came over to thank Jiang Xingchen, and it was not until this moment that their hearts were lifted could be put down. The black-robed man and Master Sang also thanked him.
Jiang Xingchen glanced at them, smiled and didn't speak, and waved his hand to let them retreat.
"Xingchen, do you really want the relics of Dashang?" Tang Chuxue asked.
"No, of course not, they targeted Xianning more than ten years ago, they must have a purpose, even if it is not a Great Shang Ruin, there is something else!" Jiang Xingchen lightly tapped the railing of the bow of the ship with his right index finger, and said in a low voice: "There are definitely not many people who know about this, that is, their ruler has come up with a fake trick to deceive us, and we can't do anything, he just needs to let his subordinates and people believe it...... If they continue to persecute in this situation, they will unite and fight hard, and their ruler will finally want to slap me, how can I fall for him...... Besides, I can't really throw the plague on Ahong Island, hundreds of millions of people, I will have nightmares when I sleep in the future!"
"Then you want to ......" Tang Chuxue turned her head to look at the direction where the black-robed man was leaving, and asked, "Are you really sure?"
Jiang Xingchen nodded: "I promise, the black-robed people and Master Sang will definitely go back to Ahong Island." Now that we're running out for time, it's best to leave a nail here!" (To be continued......)
