Chapter 317: Amazement
The dragon boy looked at the Lord of Snowbird Harbor and thought that this negotiation was indeed fruitful!
The last time the dragon boy had a great conversation with the city lord of Snowbird Port, they reached a big deal.
But this is the first time the two sides have met, and the degree of cooperation between the Snowbird Harbor City Lord and the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group is limited.
Now being forced by the dragon boy to leave Hong Kong, the city lord of Snowbird Harbor had to show greater sincerity.
From this aspect, the mysterious assassin's attack on the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group was a good thing that had more advantages than disadvantages for the dragon boy and the survivors.
Without the catalyst of this sudden incident, their cooperation with the master of Snowbird Port City would never have reached this depth.
The dragon boy said: "Our group needs many alchemists. At least three silver-level alchemists are needed, and one gold-level alchemist master is needed."
After hearing this, the Lord of Snowbird Harbor quickly raised his hand: "Wait a minute! It is completely impossible to become a gold-level alchemist master."
"Gold-level efforts are very rare. Even if you are just a fighter, you are strictly controlled by the kingdom."
"The master of alchemy is even more impossible. He represents not only a spell caster, but also the productivity that can continuously produce various alchemical items in the future, which is a long-term and huge profit."
"A gold-level alchemist master slave will basically die in the hands of the first master, and will rarely be traded unless it is a special case of necessity."
"In fact, even if talents of this level become slaves, they will soon receive better treatment due to their own contribution and strength, and then be relieved of their status as slaves."
The dragon boy fell into silence.
He had known about this situation for a long time, and what he said just now was just an attempt.
Now being rejected so simply and neatly by the Lord of Snowbird Port was also expected by the dragon boy.
The Lord of Snowbird Harbor continued: "The most I can provide is a few silver-level alchemists."
"And the specific quantity will depend on what happens after I contact you."
"At least I don't have such resources at the moment."
"However, I can provide your group with a large number of alchemy apprentices and some alchemists."
"Your group wants to sell arms on a large scale in Snowbird Port and even the entire Ice Sculpture Kingdom. Building a corresponding alchemy factory is also part of your plan."
"At that time, these alchemy apprentices and alchemists will have a place to use."
The dragon boy remained silent again.
There is no such large investment in Survivor's plans.
But if this situation continues, if everything goes well, it will be natural to build an alchemy factory in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom.
Because the cost of transporting arms in the vast sea is very high.
Especially now that piracy is rampant, transportation risks are many times higher than before.
There are many benefits to building an arms factory in the ice sculpture kingdom.
On the one hand, it saves transportation costs and greatly reduces transportation risks.
On the other hand, there are abundant alchemical resources in the Ice Sculpture Kingdom. It is very convenient to build an alchemy factory. As far as the entire sea area is concerned, the Ice Sculpture Kingdom has the best environment for building factories.
This proposal from the Lord of Snow Bird Harbor made the young dragon man think of the further future.
….It’s not like they haven’t thought about this.
But the fact is - the current situation of survivors is more complicated.
The specific progress of atonement to the Shengming Empire is related to their living conditions.
Many times, they have to take one step at a time and see the situation clearly before taking action.
They made a large-scale investment rashly, and once the secret of the Mysterious Island was discovered and there was no progress in atonement, they would have to flee into exile. Then, all the previous investments will be in vain.
Of course, the Lord of Snow Bird Harbor didn't know the complicated situation the dragon boy was currently in.
When he saw the dragon boy's silence, he thought he had revealed his thoughts and plans.
The city lord has more confidence.
Among the list given by the dragon boy, the three items that he thought were the most difficult were all modified during his negotiations, and both parties successfully reached an agreement.
Finally, he brought it up and proactively added trading options for alchemy apprentices and alchemists.
Looking at the expression on the dragon boy's face, the city lord judged: The possibility of success in this negotiation is very high!
Then at this moment, the dragon boy changed the subject.
He first thanked the Lord of Snowbird Port.
Then he said bluntly: In terms of sincerity in cooperation, the city owner of Snowbird Harbor still lacked performance!
Such words surprised the Lord of Snowbird Port, and at the same time he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.
He believes that his side has expressed enough sincerity and made great concessions. But the leader of the dragon suit still wants the lion to open his mouth, which is too greedy.
For a moment, the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord did not question, but stared at the dragon boy, with a silent question in his eyes.
The dragon boy looked at each other with open eyes and sincere tone without any fear.
He said slowly: "Lord City Lord, transactions take time."
"Don't forget, there are still two handovers of the deal we reached before that need to be completed."
"This transaction is all false until it is completely completed."
"And time is exactly of the essence."
"Now, our regiment has been attacked by a mysterious assassin, and two important members have been killed!"
"It can be said that for everyone in our regiment, every minute and every second after that will be dangerous. Because we cannot prevent the mysterious assassin from attacking again."
"Especially when there is evidence that this mysterious assassin is probably Huatang!"
"So before we proceed with the transaction, you must first express enough sincerity. Let us believe that you are really willing to cooperate with us."
The Lord of Snowbird Harbor couldn't help but laugh angrily.
The transaction was a condition for cooperation, but the city lord never expected that there were still conditions before the conditions offered by the young dragon man.
This is a bit too much!
The city lord took a deep breath, turned around slowly, walked a few steps, and sat back to his original position.
He raised his head slightly and looked at the dragon boy with a downward gaze, adding a coldness to his tone: "Just tell me. I may not be able to agree."
The dragon boy could sense the anger of the Lord of Snowbird Harbor, but in this situation, he acted even more forcefully.
He leaned back on the chair, shook his head slowly, his eyes were firm, and his tone was absolutely authentic: "This is the most important requirement. If the Lord of the City cannot do this, it will be impossible for both of us to complete our cooperation."
…."What we just discussed can only be invalidated!"
"We will leave Hong Kong tonight, even if we force our way through, we will not hesitate."
The Lord of Snow Bird Harbor felt his heart move slightly when he saw how strong the dragon boy was, and the coldness on his face couldn't help but shrink a little.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully looked at the leader of the dragon suit in front of him.
At this moment, the city lord suddenly realized: Longfu's previous threat to leave Hong Kong was not just about negotiation skills. They seem to really want to do this and are determined to do it!
The Lord of Snow Bird Harbor considered his tone and said, "Captain Longfu, relax a little, I am not your enemy."
"We can work together, and we have started working together."
"Our previous transaction completed the first handover. Regardless of whether this negotiation is successful or not, we will complete the next two handovers. Because I keep my promise!"
"Please tell me, what are the specific conditions?"
The Longmen boy said: "Our regiment is currently facing a huge survival crisis. Therefore, we must get rid of the mysterious assassin! Only in this way can we have the confidence to cooperate with you, the city lord, to deal with the Bayonet Gang."
"Only when we no longer have such worries, can we devote our energy to dealing with foreign enemies. Instead of being on tenterhooks every day and every night in the next operations."
The Lord of Snow Bird Harbor spread his hands and said helplessly: "Captain Longfu, you have to understand that you are forcing others to do something difficult for you!"
"Not long ago you came to ask for help, and I led you into an important place like the Mage Tower. You witnessed the results of our investigation with your own eyes."
"Let alone getting rid of the mysterious assassin, it is very difficult for us to even find him. The hope of eradicating him is very slim!"
The dragon boy showed a big smile at this time.
He first took a sip of tea, then looked at the Lord of Snowbird Harbor, and said in a calm tone: "We already know the specific location of the murderer."
The Lord of Snowbird Harbor: "???"
After hearing what the dragon boy said, he was stunned for several seconds, with a look of astonishment on his face.
After this, his face showed surprise.
This emotion was so strong that he couldn't help but subconsciously stand up and stared at the dragon boy in front of him.
It's like meeting for the first time!
It's also like shouting - I didn't expect you, the leader of the dragon suit, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to have such a palace! He has such deep thoughts!
In just a few seconds, the Snow Bird Harbor City Lord suddenly realized: All this was the plan and arrangement of the Dragon Server Captain!
He first pretended to ask for help.
Then in the Wizard's Tower, he learned that he could not track the mysterious murderer.
If the city lord hadn't taken the initiative to follow him and come to the dock this time, I believe the leader of the dragon server would have invited him for this negotiation later.
"The Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group has long grasped the location of the murderer."
“But they don’t want to get their hands dirty!”
"Because the murderer is gold-level, mysterious, and ruthless, dealing with him is extremely risky."
"And using the power of the City Lord's Mansion to hunt down the murderer will bring the least risk and the greatest benefit to the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group."
"Who made me the city lord who manages this city? Who made me say repeatedly that I would cooperate with the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group to deal with the Bayonet Gang!"
After thinking about this, the Snowbird Harbor City Lord's attitude towards the dragon boy changed again subtly.
He sighed deeply and said with emotion: "Captain Longfu, you really impress me!"
"No wonder you were entrusted with the important task of becoming the leader of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group and coming to the Ice Sculpture Kingdom to develop the market."
"I underestimated you. In fact, the Bayonet Gang also underestimated you. Almost everyone in Snowbird Harbor underestimated you!"
"Compared to your combat prowess. Your intelligence is superior."
"But the matter is very important." The city lord confirmed to the dragon boy again, "Can your group really determine the location of the murderer?"
"Of course!" The boy Longlong answered simply and affirmatively.
