The old man looked at Matthew with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"Does your so-called cooperation mean razing three tribes to the ground and taking away all their people and livestock?"

"Yes, this is me showing my sincerity in cooperation!" Matthew replied calmly without any shame.

The old man was stunned by Matthew's words. He looked at Matthew in astonishment and said, "I have never heard of such a statement."

Matthew said with a serious expression: "You said we are rabbits, I just want to show the so-called hungry wolves that rabbits also have the ability to fight back!"

"Have you ever seen a rabbit eat a wolf? If the Holy Land is willing to stand by, I can perform it for you once!"

The old man was speechless by Matthew.

His metaphor is indeed a bit unreasonable. He compared the behavior of the prairie people to plunder the farming civilization to a wolf eating a rabbit, but Matthew pointedly pointed out that the prairie people are not wolves, and they are not rabbits.

Since the premise of his story is wrong, what credibility does the story have?

At this point, all his methods have failed.

He used his realm difference to coerce Matthew. Although it was very difficult for Matthew to hold on, he managed to hold on.

He used a strong man's demeanor and words to dig a hole for Matthew, but Matthew didn't jump in at all, and even turned over an entire army.

His wolf-and-rabbit argument is also bankrupt unless he makes a strong point.

If he was asking about the fact that people on the grasslands were short of supplies and had to do plunder, Matthew could naturally use the trump card of "win-win business".

After all, the prairie people's looting behavior is just bullying the weak. How can there be any sense in it?

The old man squinted his eyes and stared at Matthew. His fists slowly clenched and then slowly unclenched.

"Matthew, your performance impresses me. You are qualified to negotiate with me."

243 So there’s no point in talking about it?

From the first meeting to now, all Matthew's efforts were for this sentence, but after hearing this sentence, he did not relax at all.

The game has just begun.

Negotiations require chips, and his chips are much less than those of His Holiness.

He only had the determination to fight to the death with the Venerable, but he was not sure at all.

His Holiness has many ways to deal with him.

Sure enough, the old man was a sensible person. After deciding to negotiate, he immediately threw out the first king bomb.

"Matthew, I have received the letter from Lord Hanxing. After all these years, she is finally willing to accept a disciple. As an old guy like me, I am very happy for her, so naturally I will not displease her."

"As long as you don't do anything outrageous on the grassland, we won't make things difficult for you."

"But you are the only disciple of Lord Hanxing. Please understand this."

The old man issued a naked threat without any hesitation.

Hanxing wrote a letter to protect Matthew?Yes, it happened, he admitted.

He used the airtight excuse of "being happy for Han Xing" to avoid admitting the embarrassment of being frightened by Han Xing.

It wasn't that he was afraid of Han Xing, it was just that he couldn't bear to let the old man lose his disciple.

This reason is indeed unassailable.

But in Matthew's eyes, this was proof that the Venerable gave in in front of Han Xing.Giving in is giving up, no matter how many excuses are given for the behavior of giving in, or how many times you backtrack.

Obviously, the Venerable is no match for Teacher Hanxing.

Facing the threat from the Venerable, Matthew smiled and said, "Are you planning to kill the wife of Teacher Hanxing's only disciple to cheer her up?"

The usually calm old man was furious. He looked at Matthew and said coldly: "Matthew, you are indeed qualified to negotiate with me, but don't think that a letter can keep you safe."

"It won't take much trouble to tear up a letter if you continue to speak in this manner."

"I just respect Lord Hanxing, it doesn't mean I'm afraid of her."

Matthew spread his hands, pretending to be scared, and then changed the subject. He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, we all have families and people we must protect, so there is no need to hurt each other. Let's talk about cooperation. "

The old man wanted to ask Matthew, "What qualifications do you have to hurt me?", but he still held back.

Matthew is too talkative. There is no point in arguing with him. It can only lower his own status.

A powerful demigod would quarrel with a super person. As long as the fight was back-and-forth, even if he won, it would be a disgrace.

He simply skipped these details and went straight to the point.

"Since we want to talk about cooperation, we have to show sincerity. I come with sincerity, but I don't know what you are bringing with you?"

Matthew said calmly: "I come with no less sincerity than His Holiness."

The old man was used to Matthew being soft and hard. He was too lazy to argue with Matthew and said directly: "I don't like back-and-forth negotiations, so just say it directly. My sincerity is that I can let you lead Take Zalandin’s head.”

Matthew shook his head slowly, looked at the Venerable with a half-smile, and asked in pretending surprise: "Your Majesty, can I ask a question?"

"Please say."

"How can you use my things to trade with me?" Matthew's words were very rude and hit the old man's face directly.

Zalandin is now surrounded by Matthew. If Matthew hadn't wanted to surround him for reinforcements, he could have killed Zalandin at any time.

Allow Matthew to take Zalandin's head?

The words of His Holiness were beautiful, but that was not what Matthew wanted.

What he wanted to take away was Guo Zuo of the Huoxun Khanate, and Zalandin, who was brought back alive to stand trial.

He was the chief culprit of the invasion of the kingdom, and only by being publicly executed after being tried in the royal capital could the country be comforted.

What His Holiness said just now is simply fart.

The old man knew that Matthew would not accept this condition, he was just asking for a high price.

He didn't expect Matthew to speak so harshly, so he almost pointed at his nose and cursed.

Before he could get angry, Matthew said directly: "If Your Majesty wants to remind me to pay attention to the difference in strength between the two sides, then there is no need. Of course I know the difference in strength between the two sides. But we are negotiating now, not fighting. "

The Venerable was speechless. Matthew had finished what he had to say. What else could he say?

He simply turned his army around and asked with a smile: "Young man, tell me, what do you want?"

Matthew said bluntly: "First, the Huoxun Khanate must be destroyed! Second, Zalandin, his two sons, the Grand Master and other leading figures must be brought back to the kingdom and tried according to the legal principles prevailing in the mainland."

"Is there a third one?" The old man's tone was as cold as the cold wind.

Matthew shook his head and said, "No more."

The old man was completely screwed up and couldn't fix it.

Call him reckless, he is well-founded and clear at key points; call him smart, but he always jumps up to confront him.

What is this kid thinking?

These two conditions are indeed somewhat harsh. If you accept them all, the majesty of the Holy Land will be gone.

But Zalandin and the Huoxun Khanate can negotiate.

The old man said calmly: "Of course there is a third thing. The third thing you took away is the face of the Holy Land of Immortality. I wonder what Mr. Matthew thinks?"

Matthew said unceremoniously: "The face of the Holy Land?"

"I would like to ask, in your moral system, is robbery and killing good or evil?"

The old man looked ugly and didn't know what to say.

No matter what dirty friendship deals there are between Changshengtian and the prairie nobles behind the scenes, their teachings on the surface must be to teach people to be good.

Even if it is a cult, it will not write its evil in plain words, it will have to use a nice name to deceive people.

Matthew is being unreasonable.

Can unspoken rules and explicit rules be confused?

But Matthew insisted on this statement, and the Venerable really had nothing to say. He could only nod and said: "The Changshengtian taught the people to advocate natural harmony and live in harmony..."

"In that case, does it mean that the Huoxun Khanate and Zalandin are blatantly trampling on the teachings and dignity of the Holy Land?"

"I am willing to eliminate this scourge for Your Majesty!"

Matthew said it righteously, as if he really meant it.

The old man finally couldn't hold back his anger and slapped the table.

The area where he slapped it with his palm disappeared like powder, while other areas remained intact.

This control of power is indeed a bit exaggerated.

At least Matthew couldn't do it at all.

Looking at the angry Venerable, Matthew knew that his goal had been achieved, at least he had disturbed the Venerable's mentality.

Only by muddying the water will you have a chance.

Of course, Matthew is very pessimistic about the prospects of this negotiation.

What can't be obtained on the battlefield, can we get it at the negotiation table?

Not every government is as stupid and incompetent as the Manchu government. Even if it wins on the battlefield, it can lose power and humiliate the country.

The Venerable holds the power of the Holy Land, enjoys the respect of the grassland people, and has accumulated countless reputations for thousands of years. Naturally, it is impossible to be deceived by Matthew's few words.

Matthew didn't think that he had the aura of the Tyrant to protect his body. As soon as the tiger's body was shaken, the younger brothers bowed down and bowed.

How could an organization with a long history like the Holy Land of Immortality succumb so easily?

He looked at the Venerable, silently waiting for the other party's reply.

After a long time, the Venerable said slowly:

"What Zalandin did is indeed despicable. He is not suitable to be the khan of the grassland, but this is an internal matter of the grassland. I can hand over Zalandin's head to you and let you take it back for public display. This is my bottom line."

"Matthew, you want to save face, and so do we. If you go back with Zalandin's head, you can give an account to the people."

"After you get the head, you take your people back, and we will send envoys to negotiate and discuss the details of future business cooperation. In return, I hope that the Holy Land can set up an altar in your country to hold lectures and recruit believers."

Matthew had a sneer on his lips.

This is negotiation, ask for a high price, and pay back the money when you get there.

But what the other party paid back was not the floor price, but the core price.

Since His Holiness has come up with such conditions, there is no point in negotiating.

Matthew spread his hands, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a chuckle: "Your Majesty is really good at joking."

The old man looked at Matthew without giving in and hummed: "Isn't Mr. Matthew joking?"

It was already daybreak, and a red sun was slowly rising from the east, illuminating the entire grassland.

On the battlefield a few kilometers away, the Royal Army began to besiege the hill again, and Zalandin organized a counterattack in high spirits.

But they didn't know that on another hill not far from them, the leaders of the two camps had completed a difficult negotiation.

The only consensus reached in this negotiation is that there is no consensus between the two parties.

The old man couldn't figure out what was in Matthew's mind?

He had made enough concessions and given Matthew face, but this guy still refused to give up.

The invaders of the kingdom were the Huxun Khanate and Zalandin.

The Holy Land is willing to subvert the Huoxun Khanate and find a new replacement. It is also willing to hand over Zalandin's head to Matthew. Isn't this enough?

If you want more, does Matthew have the strength?

What a joke. If you have no strength but want to benefit yourself at the negotiation table, do you really think that everyone in the Holy Land of Immortality is a fool?

The reason why Matthew didn't accept it was also very simple.

If he didn't have Han Xing's support behind him, he would certainly be satisfied with this condition.But without Han Xing, the other party would never give him a good look.

Since he is a fox pretending to be a tiger, he has to talk about a tiger to show his power.

If he had backed down, others would not have said that Matthew had given up. They would have said that Han Xing's disciple had given up in the face of Lord Sauddin.If this kind of rumor spreads, Han Xing will bow to Saudin.
