Previous Chapter 137 Parting on Bad Terms
As Joseph and Charles, who represented the two top forces, opened their mouths, representatives of other forces also began to express their loyalty to Lin Li. They all seemed to want to dig out their hearts and show them to Lin Li. Of course, thousands of words condensed into one sentence, it was the hope that Lin Li could stay and continue to participate in the negotiations and lead them to obtain more benefits from the Jindu Kingdom.
However, in the face of everyone's persuasion, Lin Li did not immediately express his position. After all, if the Jindu Kingdom refused to let go, no matter how much they said here, it would be useless.
Lin Li is not a war maniac, but he is not afraid of war. The key lies in the attitude of Jindu Kingdom.
Shortly after the representatives of the various forces left, servants from the Kingdom of Jindu followed Lin Li and said that the special envoy invited him to discuss the negotiations. Lin Li naturally would not coddle the people of the Jindu Kingdom who had to put on airs at this time, and directly told the servant to ask their special envoy to come here to see him if he had something to do, and not to disturb him if he had nothing to do.
After receiving the reward from the servants, Kantoli and others were so angry that they were itching their teeth, but they were helpless with the Tower of Dusk. After all, this was not the Kingdom of Jindu. In desperation, Elders Contoli and Gore had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to visit Lin Li. On the contrary, the naval commander Nasri hid early on the pretext of inspecting the warship.
Kantoli and Gore did not bring any entourage, and soon arrived at Lin Li's temporary residence. However, when facing the door, they could not take another step forward.
Needless to say, Kantoli is the son of the prime minister, a disciple of the Holy Lord of the Illuminati, and the absolute number one among the younger generation of Jindu Kingdom. Not to mention asking him to bow his head and compromise, he has always been the one to please others, so when do you tell others Say even a soft word?
As for Elder Gore, despite his kind-hearted appearance, he seems to be very approachable and approachable. But he is one of the elders of the Illuminati after all. When he was in Jindu Kingdom, even His Majesty the King of Jindu Kingdom had to show courtesy to him. His so-called approachability is just a gesture, but deep down he is still extremely arrogant.
These two big figures cannot be said to be like gods overlooking the common people in Jindu Kingdom. At least they stand in a position that is unattainable in the eyes of most people. But now, they are asked to compromise and speak softly to the leader of a small local force in Qingfeng Plain. This is simply like asking the king to bow his head and salute to a gangster. I am afraid only a masochist would find it comfortable. They had to come here again, and had to compromise with the leader of a small local force that they originally looked down upon. Between their own dignity and the survival of the country, they could only choose to temporarily give up their dignity. However, even if you already have the right choice in mind, it is not easy to actually make it happen, especially for people like them who are so arrogant to the core.
And more importantly, through these few days of contact, they had some understanding of the character of the young president of the Tower of Dusk. The first negotiation was inconclusive, so the other party dared to directly send people to attack the warships on their side. This second time, they suddenly left the meeting. God knows what kind of treatment the two of them would receive when they came to visit.
The two people hesitated for a long time beside the gate, attracting strange looks from time to time from the people passing by. Then they finally made up their minds, stepped onto the steps in front of the gate, and explained their purpose to the guard at the door. According to their thinking, as the two of them are special envoys of Jindu Kingdom, no matter how arrogant and arrogant the other party is, they should not be too rude.
However, what Contoli and Elder Gore didn't expect was that the guard at the door came in to report that the walk would take a full two hours. Even a snail would be able to crawl back and forth in this time. The two people were waiting anxiously at the door, while enduring the strange looks from people passing by. They really wanted to turn around and go back.
The two of them waited at the door for two hours. Finally, when the guard came out, they saw only each other and the president of the Twilight Tower did not come out to greet him. Suddenly, they were filled with anger again. The two of them are special envoys of the Jindu Kingdom. Even if they go to meet the kings of Leding and France, the other side will hold a grand welcome ceremony and send ministers of similar status to greet them. But now, the young president of the Tower of Twilight is just a leader of a small local force, and he actually dares to be so arrogant!
"You two, the president will let you in." The guard didn't even say a word of invitation, and after saying this to the two of them, he stood back to his original position and didn't even mean to lead the two of them in. nothing.
"Okay! Okay!" Kantoli said two words of "good" through gritted teeth. His hands hidden in the sleeves of his robe were clenched tightly, and his nails dug deeply into his palms. Then he barely suppressed himself and turned around. The urge to leave. And in his mind, the remaining trace of reason was constantly reminding him to put the overall situation first.
As for Elder Gore next to him, his face also became extremely different. As an elder of the Illuminati, he had never encountered such treatment even when he met His Majesty the King of Jindu Kingdom. Now he is actually treating him lightly. Feng Pingyuan tasted this. However, he could also imagine that if he questioned the young president of the Tower of Twilight about this matter, the other party would definitely say that since they are enemies, what etiquette can be said, etc.
Kontoli and Gore Changer looked at each other, with anger and helplessness in their eyes. Who makes the current situation stronger than others? The other party is the key to whether they can complete this mission, no matter how lowly and humble their status is, At this time, I could only bow my head and compromise.
The two of them walked into the door with cold faces. Although there was no one to guide them, they could not find a place. They soon arrived at the reception hall. In the living room, the young president from the Tower of Twilight, who made them itch with hatred, was sitting there steadily, exchanging something with an old magician next to him, not paying any attention to their arrival. .
"Ahem," Elder Gore suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and coughed lightly, attracting the other party's attention, and then slowly said: "President Feyre, do you have any opinions on the negotiations between us? Come on. How can we reach an agreement in negotiations if we leave quietly like this?"
Hearing Elder Gore's hypocritical words, Lin Li smiled faintly, glanced across their faces, and said disapprovingly: "Elder Gore, if you are still so insincere, then I think there will be no relationship between us. There’s nothing to talk about.”
They always talk about negotiating for the sake of peace and how sincere they are, but when they get to the negotiation table, they act like they are the best in the world and refuse to let go of all kinds of conditions. What kind of negotiation is this? Lin Li now has the Sky City in hand. Although the Kingdom of Jindu and the Illuminati are powerful, they cannot threaten the Tower of Twilight, so how can he tolerate their problems.
Lin Li's words caused a flush of shame and anger to appear on the faces of Elder Gore and Kontos. Only when they thought of their missions, they had to suppress it with great difficulty. Kontos took two deep breaths, and his voice even trembled with a hint of anger, and said, "So, what do you think, President Ferre, is sincerity?"
"You should ask yourself this. Just remember that this is the Qingfeng Plain, not the Kingdom of Jindu." Lin Li really didn't treat the two of them as big shots at all, and he was rude when he lectured them.
He was actually taught a lesson by a country bumpkin from the Qingfeng Plain, an unknown person who was younger than himself! Contoli's lungs were almost bursting with anger at this time. He had never felt this angry in more than thirty years of life. If it were in Jindu Kingdom, except for a few elders, anyone who dared to talk to him like this would have been thrown into the sea to feed the fishes.
Although Elder Gore was also very angry, he had lived so many years longer than Contoli, so he was not so angry that he lost his composure. Seeing that Kantoli was about to have an attack, he quickly pulled him aside secretly, and then rushed ahead and said to Lin Li: "Since President Ferre wants to see our sincerity, then we will show you enough sincerity." Come, as long as President Ferre is willing to sit down and talk with us, then we can not pursue the matter of your attack on our warship before. As for the warship in your hands, I can also make the decision to give it to you."
Hearing this, UU Reading www.uukaｎｓ.net Lin Li couldn't help but sneer secretly, isn't the other party just a wolf with empty hands? You have come to see what happened about the attack on the warship. It is really generous to say that you will not pursue it as a condition! As for the battleship in hand, whether or not Jindu Kingdom will give it to you, it belongs to the Tower of Twilight. Do you need to make the decision?
Although Lin Li didn't know why the Jindu Kingdom suddenly wanted to enter the Qingfeng Plains, through these several contacts with Kantoli and the others, he already knew that entering the Qingfeng Plains must be very important to the Jindu Kingdom. I have to say that in terms of negotiation, Contoli and the others are really not very good, probably because of their status and status, they have never negotiated with anyone.
After seeing this, Lin Li no longer took the two people in front of him seriously. With a bit of ridicule in his eyes, he said: "You two, please come back. You can give this so-called sincerity to others." Go and see it.
Today, your status is regarded as an envoy, so I won’t argue with you. "
Hearing Lin Li's words, Elders Kantoli and Gore were immediately dumbfounded, and even forgot the anger they should have felt in their hearts. In their view, wasn't the reason why the other party left the table during the previous negotiation just because they refused to compensate for the losses suffered by the attacked warships and refused to return the captured warships? ! .
