Chapter 288 Crazy Negotiations, Part 1

Anyang is particularly lively in the evening, especially these days. Anyang, with a strong commercial atmosphere, welcomes all kinds of people from Tiannanhai and Beibei with a broad mind; but Anyang is very stable. It's not that no one wanted to make trouble in Anyang, but none of the troublemakers ran away, and they were killed or shut down. Everything is carried out in accordance with the law; and the law is inflexible.

Maybe Anyang can't put an end to all the dark sides of society, but at least here in Anyang, the country is ruled by law, and the law is clearly engraved on the stone tablet. There are four major squares in Anyang, which are called "judicial squares", where all the laws are made public.

Anyang's law is now well-known far and wide, and there are even many countries around the country who send people to observe it, or buy legal encyclopedias - there are official legal encyclopedias for sale in Judicial Square. From Anyang's most fundamental "Constitution" to the final "Code of Conduct for the People", there are all of them, and the price is low. Ten machines and one copper plate, and a complete set only needs three taels of silver.

However, copper plates are no longer used here in Anyang; because of the emergence of banks, copper plates were the first to be "monetized".

Jiaozi has been used for bulk transactions of gold and silver; however, copper coins have been replaced by banknotes, and one copper plate is exchanged for "one cent" of an ordinary worker's daily wages, which is between 30 and 100 cents.

The banknote with the largest denomination now is 100 cents; in order to guarantee the value of the currency, there are silver threads or gold threads in the banknotes. Those with denominations above 50 have gold threads, and those with denominations less than 50 have silver threads.

Next to Judicial Square, there are some newly built government office buildings.

The most prominent are five:

First, the tall and solemn "court" carved from white marble. Patents, litigation, etc. are temporarily included here.

Second, the magnificent and majestic "bank" carved in bluestone has no prefix, only the word "bank". In this way, the word 'bank' has become a proper noun unique to Anyang.

Thirdly, blue is the main color, majestic and profound "tax".

Fourth, black-based, serious "police".

Fifth, the granite-based, simple but yet atmospheric "industry and commerce".

Countless people pass in and out of these government office buildings at any given moment.

Xie Yuhua, a businessman with a good vision, and a businessman with a unique vision, a businesswoman; she is not a native of Anyang, but came from Wuyang City, the imperial capital, following in the footsteps of Li Xian. It was Li Xian's speech in Wuyang City that opened Xie Yuhua's vision.

It was only at the beginning of this year that Xie Yuhua finally had the opportunity, capital and ability to come to Anyang. As a person who is only in the early stage of foundation building, and only here in Anyang, can he dare to do great things with confidence.

But after arriving in Anyang, Xie Yuhua was dumbfounded. This place is simply another world, and people from all walks of life are already crowded—although there are opportunities everywhere in Anyang, there are more people competing for opportunities.

Then, by chance, Xie Yuhua found a new opportunity. This is a new opportunity with an unknown future. But Xie Yuhua refused to give in, so she gritted her teeth - fight!

This new opportunity is the "conference building". With the development of business in Anyang, there are more and more meetings and so on; and there are many talks, but there is a lack of suitable meeting venues. Therefore, Xie Yuhua put all his wealth into the construction of a conference building.

Due to funding problems, the conference building has only three floors for the time being, but it occupies a very large area. Including the garden, etc., it is 180 by 150 meters. In addition to the building, there are many large gazebos in the surrounding gardens, which can also be used as meeting places.

Today, Xie Yuhua finally came to Judiciary Square to open all the terms. From today, Xie Yuhua is officially open for business.

"I don't know what will happen in the future? It should be fine." Xie Yuhua held the latest briefcase, which contained various documents. The simple, elegant and capable Xie Yuhua walked along the way, attracting countless turns of attention. Occasionally, I can see people I know, everyone nods to each other, and then walks in a hurry.

While walking towards the parking lot, a girl who was equally elegantly dressed and capable rushed over, "Miss, Miss..."

"Call me the president." Xie Yuhua's face was dignified, with a hint of majesty.

"Hee hee... President Xie, go back quickly. Someone from the Wangfu (Anyang City Lord's Mansion) is inspecting our conference building. According to the leader, the prince has taken a fancy to our conference building and is going to rent our conference building. In the future, negotiations with Jin will be held in our building."

"Ah..." No matter how dignified Xie Yuhua was, he was shocked at this moment. This building has just opened, and before the opening ceremony, it ushered in such a big business!

The negotiations between Anyang and Jin will be held in your own conference building? ! "Xiaoyue'er, you drive back, I'll go first."

After Xie Yuhua finished speaking, he didn't care about anything else, he just picked up the magic spell and flew in the air; his clothes fluttered and his hair fluttered, which also attracted countless envious eyes.

In about ten minutes, Xie Yuhua returned to his "territory". There was a bluestone at the door, and he wrote "Zizhu Conference Building". But in the parking lot of the building, there are already several vehicles with the words "Anyang" printed on them parked.

In a gazebo, Xie Yuhua's other maid...er... secretary, was talking to someone. Almost everyone knew that person—one of Li Xian's confidantes, Wang Cong.

Naturally, there are many cronies around Li Xian who are in charge of affairs. The first five people are the five yamen servants: Song Xing, Chen Jinbing, Wang Cong, Yuan Yun (has nothing to do with the Yuan family), and Yu Chao. Song Xing is now the head of the Propaganda Department, and Chen Jinbing is Li Xian's number one confidant. But the rest of the people are also public figures who often come forward to handle various things.

Now that Wang Cong came, Xie Yuhua was overjoyed and hurried to meet him.

Wang Cong was very serious in his work, and only formally negotiated after showing his own certificate and other documents to prove his identity. "President Xie, if the Zizhu Conference Building is fully contracted for a tentative one month, how much will it cost?

First of all, let’s talk about business, and do things according to the law; if there are bribes and other things, they will be suspended for rectification. "

When Xie Yuhua heard it, he understood in his heart, and said formally: "All contracts, 200 taels of gold per day, 10% off in January, 5400 taels of gold. Zizhu Conference Building provides a full set of services."

Wang Cong nodded, "Okay, I want to inspect the specific situation, and you may purchase some things by the way."

Xie Yuhua took Wang Cong to inspect the conference building. There are 12 meeting rooms on the lower floor of the building, and four large meeting rooms on the middle floor; there is only one on the top floor, which adopts the most popular steel bracket, suspension, and glass-covered structure in Anyang.

Wang Cong looked at it all the way, and kept nodding: "Very good. The top floor is the main venue, you need to prepare more paper and ink, and recruit more service personnel. In addition, this negotiation is open, you should prepare more tables, chairs, nameplates, and more. Prepare or contact some restaurants. When negotiating, I am afraid that it will be overcrowded.

By the way, a large table should be placed in the center of the venue. The table should be 50 meters long and three and a half meters wide. It should be placed north and south, and a place should be prepared for the northernmost place for the virtuous king. "

Wang Cong said it very carefully, and there were attendants beside Wang Cong to help with some things. While Xie Yuhua was listening and recording, sweat gradually appeared on his temples. After Wang Cong left, Xie Yuhua immediately got busy and turned everyone around - there were too many things missing.

"It seems that this is intentionally promoting my development?" After sitting down alone, Xie Yuhua finally discovered the problem belatedly. Wang Cong talked a lot, but he seemed to be vaguely pointing Xie Yuhua on how to manage the business of the conference building.

"This is Anyang!" Xie Yuhua propped his chin with both hands, stared blankly for a while; suddenly smiled, his brows were curved, and his eyes were like stars, "We have just opened for business, and we have received such a big business. Hehe... I really am a genius!"

The news that the newly established Zizhu Conference Building was favored by Li Xian was immediately spread along with the purchasing personnel. Many businessmen beat their chests with regret when they heard about it—it turned out that not a few people thought of the idea of ​​the conference building; it's just that everyone dared not do it, thinking that there was no future.

As a result, the negotiations between Anyang and Jin, such a big and good thing, made everyone stare at the stars-why didn't I be cruel at the beginning.

But it was too late; the Zizhu Conference Building was busy all night, and everyone stayed up all night with excitement. Early the next morning, Xie Yuhua personally waited outside the gate, and around eight o'clock, a large number of people began to pour in.

The first to rush in was Anyang's armed forces. There were four Nascent Soul stage masters, more than two hundred Golden Core stage experts, and more than five thousand Foundation Establishment stage experts protecting the surrounding area.

Then there were representatives of missions from various countries, representatives of the local separatist regime in Daxia, and even some local businessmen in Anyang. All the people who come here have the "admittance card" issued by Anyang officials. After all, the venue area is limited, and the number of people must be limited.

In addition, there are reporters from "Anyang Daily". Dong Guanwu, a young reporter, is very honored to have this opportunity. In the hands of Dong Guanwu, there is also a newest product - a camera. This is a novelty and good thing, but the price is a bit expensive now, worth more than two hundred taels of gold—it's still an internal price, and Dong Guanwu can't afford it. It's equipped by the newspaper office.

As a reporter, you must enter the venue in advance to record everything.

At half past eight, the Jin delegation finally arrived. After yesterday's incident, people in the state of Jin dared not be late anymore—the price of being late was a bit high, and Li Xian was not a casual talker.

Sima Xuan took the lead in the state of Jin, followed by more than 30 people with extraordinary bearing.

After a while, personnel from Anyuan also came; the leaders were Xu Ren and Yan Ze'an, followed by more than fifty entourages, many of whom were well-known in Anyang, and they all came from various administrative agencies in Anyang elite.

These elites who can be selected into this negotiation team are also high-spirited, and they nod to the surroundings frequently. Outside the Zizhu Conference Building, tens of thousands of people had already come to watch.

Entering the conference hall on the third floor, the negotiators from Anyang sit on the east side of the negotiating table, Xu Ren sits in the center, Yan Zean, Li Yuanming and other administrative staff sit on the left side of Xu Ren; Fang Shijing and Xiao Sihai sit on the right side of Xu Ren And other industrial and commercial and military personnel.

People from the state of Jin sat in the west, with Sima Xuan sitting in the center, and sitting on Sima Xuan's left was Cheng Yunbo, General of the East of Jin.

The 50-meter-long negotiating table is just enough for everyone to sit down; there is an area composed of small tables and chairs around it, which are representatives of various countries, as well as civil representatives from Anyang.

At exactly nine o'clock, Li Xian stepped on the clock and walked to the meeting place, and sat at the north of the negotiating table, surrounded by real Feiyu for protection.

After sitting down, Li Xian looked around with lightning-like eyes. Everyone looked at Li Xian with different eyes. There is respect, there is admiration, there is vigilance, there is plainness, there is gratitude, there is surprise, and there is hatred.

Li Xian didn't care, and said slowly: "In the past month, a tragedy happened, an unprecedented, completely avoidable tragedy caused by greed.

Since the war for a month, Anyang has suffered more than 20,000 to nearly 30,000 casualties, and the economic loss has exceeded 15 million taels of gold. Military expenditures reached more than 38.7 million taels of gold.

In addition to Anyang, including Jin State, Dongyuan County, Nanyang County, etc., a total of more than 800,000 casualties were paid.

Because of the war, the people have been affected unprecedentedly. In Luliang County, Dongyuan County, Nanyang County, including Jin State, it is estimated that more than 50,000 square kilometers of agriculture have been destroyed; this will cause more than two million people to face famine. "

Li Xian's voice stopped for a while, and the surroundings were completely silent. For the first time, Li Xian interpreted war from such a perspective, which made many people think. This angle is novel and shocking.

Suddenly, Prime Minister He Zhiguo of Qi State took the lead in applauding, and applause gradually resounded around him. Although bystanders can't speak, it doesn't mean they can't applaud.

After the applause fell, Li Xiancai continued: "Anyang does not want to see war, so we adopted the method of industry and commerce instead of the method of national expansion. But not wanting to see war does not mean that Anyang is afraid of war.

Anyone who uses violence to violate the interests of Anyang and dares to launch a war against Anyang, Anyang will retaliate in the form of war.

Blood for blood, tooth for tooth; the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. "

Before Li Xian finished speaking, the merchants in Anyang began to applaud excitedly. The applause was loud and intense.

Li Xian paused for a while, "Anyone can start a war, but they must bear the consequences of defeat. I will announce that the negotiations have officially begun. The two sides exchange views."

It is said that the two sides exchanged opinions, but in fact Anyang unilaterally "raised opinions". Because Anyang was defeated, but Jin was defeated.

Xu Ren stood up and attracted all eyes. Anyang's conditions to Jin were made public for the first time.

"First, Jin admits defeat.

Second... (See Chapter 282 for more)

Discussing the first clause below, Jin must openly and formally admit defeat. "
