Lord of War

  Negotiating is another kind of war and game.

  For any diplomat, this sentence is a famous saying deep in the bones and soul. Because any small omission, compromise, or concession will bring almost permanent trauma to one's own family and country.

  Like the indemnity of these two barons, at least in the next few years, the materials in the territory will be in a very poor predicament, and it will be a long time for those who want to really restore their vitality. The result of this is that these two nobles attached to the Boulder family will become a burden and burden to the Boulder family. However, due to the long-term development policy of the Boulder family, it is naturally impossible to abandon it. These two nobles.

  So if you don't want these two nobles to end up in such a situation, then the Boulder family must bear all compensation results.

  This is also an unacceptable ending for Tides.

  Fortunately, at least one negotiation problem was resolved, and he worked hard to prepare for the next negotiation: "Since there is no opinion on this article, then we will draw it up like this."

   "Yes." Sean nodded.

  Of course he has to give Tides some confidence. If he just blindly attacked without letting people breathe, then the string that is too tight will break. Therefore, a proper slack rhythm is the real trick to master the rhythm of a negotiation, especially when it is forced to exceed the other party’s psychological expectations and forcing the other party to nod their heads. Good grasp of the rhythm.

  Otherwise, once the opponent is smashed and beaten, it is hard to say whose hand is in control of the rhythm.

  Of course, Sean doesn’t know any negotiation skills at all. He just relies on Neil’s gestures to determine whether the current situation is good for him.

  When Neal knocks on his index finger, it means he is acceptable; if he knocks on his middle finger, he means rejection; while the ring finger means he can fight for greater benefits; as for the tail finger, he pretends to think after three minutes. In conjunction with this series of actions, Neil and Cecilia will of course speak at an appropriate time in order to achieve a reminder and targeted hit-to-the-point effect. With the cooperation of these three people, the alone Teddes will naturally discuss No benefit.

  You must know that no matter how good at negotiation Teddes is, he only has one person, and his opponents are two opponents whose skills are not inferior to him at all. In particular, Neil is still an elf. The long years have allowed him to see a lot of human cunning and the unspoken rules of nobility. Therefore, as long as Neil has the initiative at the negotiating table, it is equivalent to William opening the battlefield. God's perspective is the same.

  As for Cecilia, she really only made some kind of compensation and omissions.

  Because when Neal focuses on certain aspects, he tends to neglect other considerations, so some clauses are naturally impossible to think so precisely. Cecilia does not have too obvious advantages and disadvantages, but her status as a magician makes her extremely intelligent, and her memory and thinking skills are also extremely good, so many details can be captured by her immediately, and this is also true. It's a headache for Teddes.

  At this moment, Teddes has guessed the origin of Cecilia.

   But what if you know it?

  Teddes can only curse inwardly: "It is really a luxury to let a magician participate in the negotiation!"

  Not all magicians are so idle.

  After reaching an agreement on the compensation for the two barons, the negotiation of the next treaty will be much easier, and the progress will obviously be much faster. However, after having learned the terrible aspects of Sean’s team, Teddes would naturally no longer have any time to relax his mind. The high concentration of concentration made him feel a bit tired, but the work of negotiation was just like that.

"Then next, it is about the two territories currently occupied by your army." Teddes continued, "I hope you can withdraw the army immediately. After all, this is the territory of the Kingdom of Darbion. Of course, your army will win the battle. The party can also get a corresponding compensation. The specific amount of compensation is the full income of the two territories in the next year."

"On this point, I have exactly the opposite opinion with you." Sean shook his head. "Whether it is the Chiraff collar or the Dai collar, it will be officially incorporated into the jurisdiction of my territory. This is unchangeable. So nominally speaking, I have to protest against you, because Da’i led an army belonging to your country broke into my territory some time ago. I hope you can immediately stop this army from doing everything and leave. My territory, otherwise I will treat it as a declaration of war."

  Hearing Sean’s words, Ted's face finally showed a look of shock.

Although in this war, Sean was indeed a counterattack by occupying a certain favorable name, but in this case, according to the noble war treaty, Sean should not occupy the territory, but should be receiving sufficient compensation. After that, they returned the two occupied territories.

  But now, listening to Sean, Teddes seems to be planning to turn these two territories into his own?

"Your Excellency Sean, your behavior seems to be counterintuitive." Teddes is also a little confused. He is really confused now. According to the noble war treaty, such a thing has never happened in Miracle Continent, but Sean It is obvious that the cards are played unreasonably, which makes Teds somewhat doubt whether his theory is tenable, "According to the noble war treaty, you cannot occupy these two territories, because this... after all, it is only between the nobles. Contradiction."

"According to the noble treaty, I just shouldn't occupy these two territories, but I didn't say that my behavior was illegal." Sean said without hesitation. Hearing this line, he knew that it was obviously going through. Train hard, "So strictly speaking, my behavior can definitely be considered legal."

   "But even so, you only have the power to rule these two territories in name. In fact, you still belong to the territory of the Kingdom of Darbion."

  Tades did not understand.

  Neither the Chiruff collar of Baron Ronnis nor the Dai collar ruled by Viscount Rudd, who is also said to be a captive of Sean, are not important territories. At least these two territories don’t have any special products, and there are not even mineral veins and the like. The situation of Dayi collar is slightly better, because Viscount Rud is well managed, and currently there are still two trade routes. All of his profits have hundreds of thousands of gold coins, but even the lord can only get a piece of it, because the profits of this trade route are not owned by Viscount Rud alone.

The Chiruff collar is completely horrible. Because Baron Ronnies is not good at internal affairs, the situation in the territory is not much better. It is said that Baron Ronnies even pays a sum of money to subsidize the territory every month. army. In addition, there is no dangerous place in the Da’i territory, and the terrain in the territory is relatively broad and flat, so the army is not good at defending the border. Although the Chilaf collar is much smaller, the border is also narrow and long, and it is also not good. Defense.

  These two territories have no special products, mineral veins, resources, and even strategically important territories. What value can they have?

"I know this very well." Sean nodded, "I will also pay the taxes that should be paid to the Kingdom of Darbion every year. However, I am still a loyal Lane man. I believe in Ted. Mr. Si will not convey wrong opinions when he goes back to repeat it?"

  Teddes looked at Sean with some doubts, the so-called something abnormal, there must be a demon, this is his experience in negotiations for many years. If Sean only wants Dayi collar, he can also think that this is because Pandan collar has no trade route, so he wants to use Dayi collar trade route to expand a trade route to Pandan collar. After all, he has already seen it. Now that this originally unknown town has completed the construction of the outer wall of a city, it must be necessary to stimulate the development of the territory through trade.

  But Sean still insisted on Chiraf collar, which made him a little puzzled.

Moreover, the two territories at the moment are, after all, related to the territorial issue of the Kingdom of Dabion, and are no longer a matter of the Boulder family, so Teddes did not dare to agree: "On this point, it has exceeded the Boulder family's Ability, so the Boulder family cannot make any compromises on this matter. After all, this is a matter of two territories, and even if the Boulder family wants to agree, there is no way to come up with relevant territorial documents, so this It's not as good as we remove it from the agreement, how about?"

"Oh, you don't need to delete it. You can draft another one and hand it to your Majesty the King for me at that time." Sean smiled, "On the specific issues of these two territories, I have and Viscount Rudd And Baron Ronnies reached an agreement, and they all agreed to transfer to me. And Viscount Rudd’s domain documents have been sent not long ago..." While saying this, Neal handed a copy of the documents to Ted. S: "And Baron Ronnies has also promised that as long as he returns home, he will be sent the documents immediately. I am telling you about this now, it is just a reminder, I hope you can help convey the news at that time To your majesty."

   "Since Viscount Rude has given you the certificate of the territory, he should return to the capital to report..."

  Speaking of this, Ted's face suddenly stiffened, and the incredible color in his eyes became thicker.

"There are some things, we don't need to say anything, do we?" Xiao En smiled slightly, "Viscount Rudd is actually just a victim. Since the Kingdom of Darbion doesn't want him, it is not normal for him to choose a better future. Is it?... So I hope that when you convey the news to your Majesty the King for me, you'd better remind him that Rudd Michelin is already a knight under my command, and I hope you don’t do anything to him. Any malicious harassment, otherwise I will treat it as a declaration of war."

  "This is the declaration of war by the Kingdom of Darbion against me, you know?"

  Cecilia glanced sideways at Sean, her face full of helplessness: This is really a naked face and provocation.
