Chapter 24 Negotiation (Part 2)

It was Ambera who came, and beside her was an adventurer, Zongtang from the Fenglin Team.

Standing at the door, Ambera looked at Shen Yi with a smile: "Captain Shen, we are here to disturb you again."

Shen Yi smiled: "You are most welcome, come, please, please."

After entering the room and the two sat down, Zongtang said, "Captain Shen, if it's convenient, can I talk to you alone?"

"If it's about the allocation of task points, there's no need to talk about it separately, everyone just needs to be open and honest." Shen Yi didn't intend to transfer King Kong and the others as Zong Tang said.

Ambera and Zongtang came hand in hand. It was obvious that there had been an agreement in advance. Under such circumstances, it would definitely be a disadvantage for me to play one-on-two. Negotiations are very imposing, the more people there are, the better it is for you. Even if Hong Lang and the others stood behind him without saying a word, it was a kind of help.

Ambera smiled sweetly: "Sure enough, you are indeed Captain Shen who can destroy the blood-stabbing team. You must have been waiting for us for a long time, right?"

Shen Yi shrugged: "You guys are quite well-informed, you figured out my bottom line so quickly."

Zongtang smiled and said: "You can't be unhappy, the Dragon Tooth team is a lesson from the past. Captain Shen is ruthless and courageous enough. Not to mention destroying the other team, but also forcing the team members to work for you. You are not afraid that they will join forces at that time." To rebel against you?"

Shen Yi smiled: "There is no enmity in the bloody city, only interests. Personal feelings are too heavy, and they can't go far on this road. I believe they know how to choose."

Zongtang Ambera looked at each other at the same time.

Zong Tang didn't just say this casually, he was actually implying that Shen Yi, Huang Tianyang and the other four were unreliable, and in this way he was denying Shen Yi's existing combat power. Once Shen Yi is forced to admit it, it means that Shen Yi's strength will be underestimated, and he will fall into a disadvantageous position in the competition for interests.

However, Shen Yi didn't take the hard way, and gently dismissed Zongtang's statement with one sentence. It is impossible for the two of them to get too entangled on this issue. Ambera can only say: "Captain Shen has such confidence in himself, that is a good thing. Since Captain Shen already knows our reason for coming, then I will say it directly, six For the task point, you can choose one more task for the task of seven ancient tombs, maggot lair and temple of sharp claw viper. Captain Zong and I will take the task of sanctuary, the task of royal prison and the task of Captain Shen, and the remaining one. How about giving it to those scattered adventurers?"

King Kong snorted coldly: "Sounds good, we get two missions, and your two teams only get three missions, but the Royal Prison mission is worth 1,800 points, one can be worth two or three."

"You can't say that." Ambera said extremely sharply: "The real number of your team is only six people, and the rest are all outsiders. If just adding a few outsiders can be counted as our own strength, then our Nanhai The team and the Fenglin team can also immediately recruit people, right? But the consequence of doing so is to make those useless guys cheaper."

Zongtang also said: "This mission cannot satisfy everyone's needs, so we have to abandon some talents after all. The only question is, who will be abandoned! Captain Shen probably doesn't know yet? The adventurers have already started discussing a temporary alliance."

Ambera continued: "There are now fifteen scattered adventurers. Once they unite, they will be stronger than any of our teams. But it doesn't matter, as long as our three teams can cooperate sincerely, then the others will be nothing to worry about. When the time comes We gave fifteen of them a task point, and they could only accept it."

Zong Tang: "We can neither absorb them nor let them go, so joint operations are the best choice. On this issue, I hope Captain Shen Yi can understand."

The two teamed up together and cooperated tacitly, obviously accusing Shen Yi of absorbing outsiders and breaking the balance. But they are right. If there is a competition for income, the three-party teams will have no chess pieces to sacrifice, and even if they cooperate, it will be of no benefit to everyone.

Therefore, before negotiating,

Zongtang and Ambera first negotiated a keynote: that is, the three teams cooperate on their own, and no other outsiders can participate in it. As for the six assistants that the Broken Blade team has already absorbed, the value must be halved accordingly, which also gives the South Sea team and the Fenglin team a relatively higher profit space.

Gentle and sneered: "That's not the way to calculate the account. There were four teams when we came in. If we hadn't made a move, there should be four bosses sitting here discussing the division of interests. According to the principle of handling the team's management, the Dragon Tooth team should It is calculated as a team of ten people, but if we kill them, their income should belong to us. Therefore, the mission points assigned to us should be calculated according to the value of sixteen people in the two teams!"

Ambera's face changed: "This is too unfair, how can the dead be counted?"

King Kong quickly interjected: "Then how can living people only pay half price?"

Zongtang immediately said: "The members of the Longya team assigned by your team may not even get half the price, right?"

"That's our own business. If Dragon Tooth Team joins voluntarily, it should be counted as effective members of the team."

"Then, according to this, wouldn't there be another war of robbery?"

"At least the interests that the Dragon Tooth team should have must be guaranteed."

Ambera sneered: "The person who wiped out the Dragon Tooth Team actually fights for the Dragon Tooth Team's interests. Isn't that a bit ridiculous?"

Wen Rou retorted: "If we eliminate the South China Sea team, we will naturally strive for the interests of your team."

Ambera's complexion changed and she was about to get angry, but Shen Yi stopped being gentle.

Negotiations between the two sides are inevitable, and it is for this reason that some people need to sing bad faces and others sing bad faces, threaten when they should be threatened, and win over when they should win over, so that this drama can continue to sing.

The best thing for subordinates is to make bad faces, even if the situation gets into a stalemate, the boss can still use the excuse that his subordinates are ignorant, and then turn the situation around, so at this moment, the gentleness became furious, and Shen Yi came out to smooth things over: "I see this matter How about this. The Dragon Tooth team no longer needs to be counted as a complete team. The current team is three, and based on this, we can discuss how to divide the task points. But in terms of the number of people, it must be based on our 12 people, and this standard cannot be lowered. Except In addition, the three parties are not allowed to accept any foreign adventurers to join, and everything is based on this."

Ambera and Zongtang looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Facing the fait accompli, in fact, it is not very meaningful to fight back and forth. Ambera and the others did not expect to overwhelm their opponents in this respect. Take advantage. As for Shen Yi, being able to obtain the total right to distribute the rights and interests of 12 people means that in the next division, the Broken Blade team is destined to take the lead, and it can also be satisfied.

King Kong then said: "Since this is the case, the original division method is obviously unfair. In my opinion, let's take the mission of the Royal Prison, the mission of the Maggot Lair and the mission of the Claw Viper."

Zongtang's face changed: "This brother is too big, isn't he? You took more than half of it."

Hong Lang, who was sitting on the balcony in the distance, hadn't spoken for a while, but suddenly interrupted: "I think it's quite fair. Captain Zong, sometimes when we count benefits, we should not only consider the quantity, but also the quality."

Ambera raised her eyebrows: "According to what you mean, your team members are very strong?"

Hong Lang pointed at the door and said: "Go out from here and turn left. It's the room of Huang Tianyang and the four of them. There's an adventurer named Hong Yin inside. Go and ask him how the three of them lost."

Then he turned his thumb and pointed at himself: "I'll get down on the three of them alone!"

Ambera's complexion changed slightly, she didn't go to ask for proof, but Hong Lang's tone already knew that what he said was true. But she still snorted coldly: "The Dragon Tooth team is useless, but it doesn't mean that our South China Sea team is also useless."

Hong Lang has already brought his face closer, and smiled at Ambera: "Then why don't we find a place to try? I asked your South China Sea team to have two people, I'm one against two, no matter life or death, how about it?"

Ambera's heart skipped a beat.

In fact, if we really want to talk about fighting, Hong Lang played one against two, and with no one to help, he might not be the one who can have the last laugh. The so-called contrast between quality and quantity is a very complicated concept. When the quality of the two parties is similar, the quantity plays a decisive role. When the quality differs to a certain extent, no amount can make up for it.

The reason why Hong Lang was able to win the Dragonya team three times in one pair was largely due to King Kong and others who had been posing a huge psychological threat to the Dragonya team even though they hadn't made a shot. They even restricted Hong Yin's performance, and rescued Hong Lang when he was in danger, so that he could complete his one-on-three feat. If there is no one to help, and the other party comes prepared, the situation will be quite different.

But it doesn't matter.

Negotiations are all about momentum, and once the momentum is strong, there will be no disadvantages.

Hong Lang is not good at words, but if he is asked to act like a bachelor, he really shows full domineering, and the psychological impact on the two of them is even stronger.

This is just a Hong Lang, but Ambera and Zong Tang clearly remember that Hong Lang and the others went in the direction of Tristram, and it was Shen Yi, Zhou Yiyu and the other four who wiped out the main force of the Dragon Tooth team and subdued the remaining players. .

Considering the great prestige of the Broken Blade team in destroying the Blood Stab team...

Ambera snorted angrily: "This is not the attitude that cooperation should have."

As for Hong Lang's provocation, she did not accept it.

Zongtang took a long breath and said in a low voice: "We know that your team is strong, but it is too much to just take away three missions. Don't forget that we still have to give those scattered adventurers a mission. Points, you can't get three mission points, but our two teams have one each?"

When he said this, his posture was extremely low.

Hong Lang sneered: "So what if we don't give it? Our three teams join forces, and the fifteen people will starve to death."

Zong Tang replied seriously: "Brother, I suggest you not to underestimate them. There are a few of them who are not weak. You must know that some scattered adventurers may not be unqualified to join the team, but they just rely on their own strength and do not want to join the team." Join the team."

Shen Yi's heart moved slightly, and he said, "You mean the guy who snatched the blood black?"

Zongtang smiled wryly and nodded.

At the first match point, the Feng Lin team had sent two people in the direction of Blood Black. The direction of Blood Crow is second only to the direction of Andalil, the place where killings are the most popular. Four adventurers who went to the snatching mission failed to return in the end, but the one who got the reward mission was a solo adventurer.

Judging from Zongtang's tone, this person is definitely not weak.

Ambera also answered: "Our South China Sea team went in the direction of the Countess. At that time, two adventurers also followed. We originally wanted to kill them, but failed. Fortunately, we finally got the mission. , but was still robbed of a lot of contribution points by those two guys, and seriously injured one of us."

There are many experts among these sporadic adventurers. They may not be able to stop the three teams joining forces together, but it is not a small trouble to hide in the dark and make trouble. Give them a task point, so that they have a hope of competition, and then force them, it will be difficult for those people to twist together to fight hard. After all, it is impossible for a temporary team to be too united.

Shen Yi bowed his head and pondered for a while, and finally said: "I think so. The mission of the Royal Prison, our Broken Blade team is going to decide, this matter is not negotiable. Besides, we only need to get another mission point, and It can be the task point with the least points, Lost City."

The lost city mission plus the royal prison mission, the total mission points are 4600 points, which is 383 points on average for each person. As for the remaining four missions, the total is 6600 points. Even if one of the mission points is given up, the average points of the two teams can reach about 385 points each. Calculated, it is still more points than Shen Yi and the others.

However, considering that Duriel is the final boss, the rewards are bound to be rich, which far exceeds the value of points in this respect, and Shen Yi still earns, which is equivalent to compensating for the strength advantage of the Broken Blade team.

Zongtang and Ambera looked at each other and felt that this division was roughly fair.

Shen Yi said again: "But I have a proviso, that is, you must hand over the task of the Holy Sanctuary to scattered adventurers."

"Why?" Ambera frowned.

The mission of the Holy Sanctuary is 700 points, while the maggot lair and the sharp claw viper are only 600 points. According to the thinking of the Fenglin team and the Nanhai team, it must be giving up the small to fight for the big, and giving the scattered adventurers a bite of soup is already quite a benevolent gesture.

"Because I need the King's Rod and the Horadric components." Shen Yi said, and took out the dagger "Lock Throat" from Xie Tianyu from the coat of arms, and placed it in front of the two of them.

"The South China Sea team takes the maggot lair and the Claw Viper Temple missions, and the Fenglin team takes the seven ancient tomb missions. If I exchange this C-level weapon for the King's Rod and Horadric components, your South China Sea team will not suffer."

Ambera immediately said: "Captain Shen wants these two things. Could it be that he has received a mission related to the Horadric? Is it related to Deckard Cain? The Horadric Cube?"

This woman has a flexible mind, and she can see through everything.

Shen Yi smiled and said nothing, so what if he knew? Forgive this woman for not being so stupid as to dare to control herself.

But Zongtang was dissatisfied and said: "The Nanhai team is not at a disadvantage, but our Fenglin team is at a disadvantage."

There are eight people in his team, and although the Seven Ancient Tomb missions have a total score of 2,800 points, the average is lower than that of the South Sea team, which is very uneconomical for him.

Shen Yi took out the Medal of Honor and put it on the table: "The South Sea team is going to fight two missions with six people. The number of people is a bit tense, right? As for your Fenglin team, you have to fight seven ancient tombs, so the number may not be the same. Take advantage. I can help you all, and use my summoned soldiers to help you. It may not be of much use, but at least it can do a good job of defending the perimeter for everyone and save a lot of trouble. Doesn’t the Zong leader feel disadvantaged? It’s okay, You don’t need to pay for the cost of hiring soldiers, but the South China Sea Team will pay for it. This is fair, right? If you are still not satisfied, you can send someone to participate in the Royal Prison mission, and I will share your contribution points. How about Sample?"

Zongtang thought for a while and said, "I want to discuss it with Ambera."

Shen Yi nodded to express his understanding.

The two walked out of the room together, and came back together a moment later.

Zong Tang said: "Captain Shen, we know that you have a way to kill the mission boss several times in a row. This should be the reason why you insist on being assigned to Duriel. We can agree to your conditions, but there is also a proviso , is to get at least two rewards from Duriel’s rewards. Of course we can buy them with money, but we must give us a 40% discount on the standard price.”

"What do you want?"

"A vial of blood from Hell Lord Duriel and a weapon dropped by this guy."

"Wow, that's the most valuable part, 10% discount can still be considered."

"30% off, Captain Shen, why bother too much, if you eat meat, give us some soup."

"Twenty percent off, this is the last concession, these things are not mine alone, and... if Duriel is stronger than Andariel, we may only be able to kill it one more time at most."

Zongtang and Ambera looked at each other and finally nodded together: "Deal."

A negotiation of intrigue and mutual benefit was finally finalized in this way. In this negotiation, Shen Yi, as the most powerful party, got his wish and stood at the top of the interests, and the Fenglin team and the Nanhai team also got what they wanted. As for the fifteen adventurers, they were destined to be the victims of this mission.

The agreement was signed and the three parties shook hands.

Zongtang smiled and said, "I wonder if Captain Shen is interested in breaking into the difficult Kurast Harbor in the apartment area after this mission is over?"

"If I go..."

"Then my Fenglin team must follow the flag closely."

Ambera said: "My South China Sea team is also interested in making a breakthrough."

Shen Yi replied meaningfully: "I believe that by then, you and I will no longer have to fight over the division of task points."

"Exactly." Zongtang and Ambera laughed together.
