Joshidel attached great importance to this meeting on the distribution of benefits of the [Phase Transmission Device].

He even invited several legends to attend the meeting overnight.

Joshidel invited so many legends this time, not because he wanted to intimidate Manolin with force to gain greater benefits in this matter. After all, he knew very well that Manolin could easily defeat all the people he invited, and it was hard to say who would intimidate whom in a real fight.

The main purpose of inviting so many people was to increase the confidence or bargaining chips for this negotiation.

Just like the fights between the spirit guys in the previous life, although they usually couldn't fight, they would definitely find a group of people to "stand up" beforehand.

And Joshidel's current behavior is not much different from the spirit guys finding people to "stand up", it's nothing more than adding some confidence to his side.

If those demigods hadn't paid much attention to King Joshidel, he would have even thought of inviting a demigod to attend the meeting.

There was no way, this world was essentially ruled by the strong, and it just so happened that the negotiating partner was one of the top fighters in this world.

In this case, even if Joshidel was the king of a country, it would be a bit difficult for him to try to gain greater benefits through negotiations.

...

Unlike the tense atmosphere in the Kingdom of Fafnir, Manolin didn't feel any pressure.

For him, as long as he could ensure that the [Phase Transmission Device] could be installed smoothly and that the device had enough power to protect it and no accidents would happen, there would be no problem.

As for how much "toll" he could receive from the Kingdom of Fafnir, he really didn't care much.

After all, for him, no matter how much "toll" he could receive, it was pure profit, so it didn't matter if it was more or less.

However, Manolin himself was relaxed, but the "negotiation team" he brought this time was under great pressure.

Whether it was the Fordlo brothers, former businessmen like Tolovt, or college students who did not participate in other jobs after graduation and came directly to work on the [Pterosaur].

These people just got up in the morning and were told that they needed to participate in a "national-level" transaction, which made many of them confused.

God has mercy on them, these rookies have never participated in such a high-level transaction.

Moreover, their unreliable boss did not give them any preparation time at all. Such a major transaction was just casually Just a casual notification and they were pulled over directly.

This is really a bit too outrageous.

But there is no way, no matter how outrageous this matter is, they have to bite the bullet.

Because they know that the interests involved in this meeting are very huge.

Although their boss is unreliable, they still believe in him.

There are many people like the two brothers of Fordlo who value Manolin's interests more than their own interests in the entire [Pterosaur].

For them, Manolin's loss of interests is more painful than their loss of money.

So even if they are under great pressure, they have to Resolutely strive for greater benefits for Manolin at the conference table.

…

Due to the attitude of both sides not to relax even for the slightest bit of benefits, the atmosphere of this meeting was quite tense or even undignified.

For a slight change in the number of decimal places after the single item of goods, the people under Manolin directly slammed the table in front of so many legends, and almost cursed.

The situation on the Fafnir Kingdom side was not much better. If the people next to him hadn't stopped him, King Joshidel would have almost rolled on the conference table.

The meeting lasted from early morning to midnight. During this period, the personnel of both sides, except for eating, drinking water and going to the toilet, the rest All the time was spent fighting for the interests of the other party.

At this time, Manolin, who had been sitting for a whole day and had done nothing except listening to these people quarreling, was a little impatient.

For him, holding a meeting here was really a waste of time.

Wouldn't it be better for him to treat people or research and manufacture some mechanical creations during this whole day?

Even fishing for a whole day would be better than sitting here.

At first, Manolin really didn't know how complicated this matter would be.

According to his idea, wouldn't it be better to unify all the goods into one "toll"? How simple is that?

But the result was not as simple as Manolin thought.

At first, Manolin wasBian Shizi said that all goods must be submitted every time they are transported, and 20% of the value of the goods will be used as "tolls".

The Fafnir Kingdom naturally refused. The 20% toll is very worthwhile for transporting bulk commodities such as food or minerals, after all, the freight of these things is also quite high.

But for those commodities with higher unit prices, the 20% toll is quite high.

Finally, after a whole day of discussion, it was finally determined that the toll for some bulk commodities (food, ore, etc.) was 23.54% each time, and the toll for potion materials was 5.13%...

But this whole day only completed the pricing of a small part of the goods. If the pricing of all the goods is really to be discussed, it will take at least ten days and a half months.

Manolin felt quite troubled when he thought that he had to endure ten days and a half months.

In fact, he did think about giving Joshidel some benefits directly to speed up the negotiation process.

However, after seeing the hard work of his men, he finally gave up the decision.

He couldn't let these people down.

He felt that if he gave in to Joshidel first, his men would directly say, "We are ready to fight to the death, why did your Majesty surrender first?"

Fortunately, Manolin only needed to act as a mascot on the scene, and he didn't need to negotiate in person.

As the saying goes, as long as there is sand in your heart, everywhere is the Maldives.

Since he couldn't leave the venue and enter the workshop he had been thinking about to make his little inventions and creations, he could use the venue as a workshop.

So in the next few days, a very funny scene appeared in the venue.

On one side of the venue, a group of people were arguing there, slapping the table and howling.

On the other side of the venue, Manolin was humming a tune while making some very complicated parts.
