The atmosphere of the peace talks can be said to be getting stronger and stronger. Many people know that the war may not go on. These people understand this one by one, and they all feel that the current economic situation can be said to be better than before. The time will be much better. The economy has a huge relationship with the war. Sometimes these economies can be expressed, but sometimes these things may not be so clear, just like now. Many people in the Northern Empire heard about the peace talks, and they all started to open their doors for business. Otherwise, they wouldn’t open the door to do business. In their opinion, this might be the site of Cao’s Commercial Bank in the future. What are you doing?It is possible that at that time they would have been robbed by people from Cao’s House of Business. The emperor of the Northern Empire also acted nicely towards the people of Cao’s House of Business after seeing this situation. They all felt it one by one. Peace talks must be carried out, but the two sides have nothing in common on two key issues. To put it bluntly, the peace talks are territories and reparations. Of course, the Cao family firm will negotiate at the price of the Western Empire. Yes, but the Northern Empire will definitely not want to do that. If they follow that idea, what is the difference between them and defeated in the war? Besides, the people in the Eastern Empire don’t want the Northern Empire to negotiate peace. If the Northern Empire also withdrew from the war, nominally the Eastern Empire was still in a state of war with the Cao’s Commercial Firm. If this were the case, the Eastern Empire would become very passive, and the ordinary people in the Eastern Empire would not be fools. , They will also ask this question, why is it possible for others to negotiate, but not for us?In the past, we can be said to be the largest empire, but now it is different from before. Now our power has shrunk greatly.Don’t talk about the Cao’s house now. Even if there is a war with other empires, the Eastern Empire may not be able to persist. Things like this are very normal now, and there may be more in the future. Many things.

In the informal meeting on the second day, Prince Wanhuai raised the two most important questions, hoping that the people from Cao's House of Commercial Bank could rationally formulate the current conditions.It is impossible for them to cede 270 provinces and indemnify 1.1 trillion silver. The people of Cao's Commercial Bank did not speak loudly. According to their current war situation, it is normal to have two of these. The thing, since the people of the Northern Empire were unwilling, let’s see what they thought. When Prince Wanhuai gave out this contract, the people in Cao’s house felt that they had been teased by them. They are just willing to spend 30 provinces and a symbolic compensation of 50 billion taels.As for some other things, they don’t have anything to do with you. The Cao’s business requires the stationing of its own troops on some traffic arteries and the construction of a military port, which are directly ignored by others. In fact, in Li Wei’s view, as long as it is If the contract for the construction of the military port and the stationing of the army can be passed, part of the land cessation and compensation can be conceded. After all, now I don’t have the ability to eat so much land, and there is a lot of lack in Cao’s house. Some officials who can manage localities.These people are even more lacking for them, and they have no way to make some improvements to such things.So now we can only look at the things in front of us. Some other things need to be done slowly in the future. If we can do well, the result will be very good. If the result is not good. , Both sides will still come to the battlefield to meet each other.The people of Cao’s House of Business immediately expressed their dissatisfaction. It can be said that they have no sincerity at all. If the people of Cao’s House of Business agree to their contract, then there is no need to negotiate the term in the future. Yes, in the future, you will just say what you say.We don’t need to come to negotiate with you at all. I believe you all understand this kind of thing very well. For this reason, during the negotiation the next day, Li Wei didn’t come. Min De and Wu Zuoxi became two people. The protagonist has been removed, and it is also to let the people of the Northern Empire understand that our Cao’s family firm is not really going to negotiate with you now. If we really attack, you will not have much loss, and neither will we. Fool's.

"His Royal Highness, I don't think we need to continue talking about the contract you proposed. We must negotiate one today. It has been several days, and I think your time is also They are all very precious. We are also doing some big things in the back of the Cao’s house. We don’t have so much time to spend here. If we can’t have some substantial close combat today, I think we will There is no need to continue the talks. Sometimes negotiations are wasted time, but sometimes there is no need to waste time. Our current negotiation is the kind of negotiation that does not need to waste too much time." At the beginning, the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and Prince Wan Huai also felt it. It was a performance that Li Wei did not come today, and the other is that Wu Zuoxi came up today and said such uncomfortable things. At that time, they all understood that, no matter how serious the fight between your two people is, if you get to the negotiation table, some necessary diplomatic rhetoric must be obeyed. If these things are not obeyed, they will be followed in the future. There is nothing to talk about, and they are all very clear about the matter in front of you. Since it is something you don’t want to talk about, then we don’t need to waste time with you here. In fact, Wu Zuoxi’s other meaning is yours. If there is a long time, it’s your own business. Our people don’t have so much time. You can see that the people in Cao’s house are very busy and can be in such a busy time. It’s already our biggest concession to squeeze out some of them. It’s impossible for us to continue wasting here with you. Wu Zuoxi’s words didn’t give these people in the Northern Empire any face. They There are also some ugly faces on his face, but now is when people are occupying the top, can people like yourself still scold him back?

Prince Wanhuai's status is very high. At least no one in the Northern Empire dared to talk to him like this. Wu Zuoxi used to be the prime minister in the Western Empire.But what happened? No one knew the situation at that time. It was not because the people of the Western Empire couldn't hold on, so that this guy was allowed to be the prime minister in the past. It is for this reason that they are not very good. Look at this guy.Sometimes Wu Zuoxi is a joke spread among high-level people. Many people say that Wu Zuoxi is a traitor. But in any case, people today can be said to be successful. They are almost the second-in-chief of Cao's firm, although they have never I didn’t say how high this guy’s status is, but the two generations of Cao’s house firm believe in others, and this one is already very powerful. The other first-class managers are also very respected. This guy's.Because people’s brains are relatively easy to use, they were very kind to the prince a few days ago, but now they are so shameless. The few entourages around the prince are all about diplomatic matters. It's more profound, knowing that these people haven't broken their faces, so they can't go crazy at this time, but Prince Wanhuai himself has not been so insulted, even if he is in the other empires.Their officials can't speak to themselves like that, just because they are a nobleman.An aristocrat who is more powerful than other people, none of the other people have the right to do so, nor do they have this advantage of their own, that is, for this reason, this guy takes himself very seriously, some Time has surpassed the eyes of many people.It’s the first time I have discovered such a thing as disrespect. As far as today’s situation is concerned, they really feel very sad. They really didn’t expect things to be like this one day, when a junior is in front of their own eyes. Speak.This guy was going to scold Wu Zuoxi soon, but several entourages next to him hurriedly pulled His Royal Highness back from the brink of anger and told him not to do something like this. If he was really so angry, it would be great. It’s not necessary to speak. If you don’t speak, sometimes it’s a kind of protest. It’s just that such protests make the person who doesn’t speak very embarrassed. Many other people are very clear about this. Let a prince be like this , They also feel no face, but now the Northern Empire is retreating steadily, the army is useless, and the prince loses face. This is normal.

"What Mr. Wu said is what I want to say. Our Emperor has been urging the old man again and again. The days of peace are gone for a long time. There are also many things within our empire. The problem of is always the most difficult thing to do. It’s not as good as this. Anyway, we haven’t put forward a plan that is satisfactory to both parties in a few days. Why don’t we just open the skylight today and talk about yours. The minimum requirements, this time you are all well thought out, don’t speak indiscriminately, if we can agree, we will agree to it immediately, and other details can be thought of according to this general situation. I think this will save money. If you have less time, if you want, just speak up. As long as we can afford it, the old man will definitely not say a word here, but if we can’t say anything, then we don’t need to negotiate in the future. Maybe it was on the battlefield." The old prince is still a bit bloody, and some people in the Northern Empire secretly give points to their master in their hearts. This is already very good, at least they are people. They all don’t have this ability. For them, this old prince is really very powerful. If you can tell a tiger like this, none of the other people can tell, and for this reason, these guys. All of them are doing very well. As long as the people of Cao’s house can put forward a condition, they can solve this problem. Of course, these people are also all about the last words of the old king. Very scared, how could this prince say anything, really competing on the battlefield?None of their own armies can be brought out. You can see from their appearance. They are now scared of people who see Cao’s house. How can they continue to fight with people from Cao’s house? What?This is simply impossible, so the old prince’s words are still a bit risky, but this is also human nature. People like themselves don’t have so many identity problems, but just now Wu Zuoxi said those things that they said. People are not very comfortable anymore, not to mention that they are still a prince. In the past, no one dared to talk to the prince like that.That's all looking for death.

"Hehe, what the prince said is not very appropriate. If this matter is the same as you said, we want to sign this armistice agreement. I remember that when the people from the Northern Empire came to talk to We signed this agreement, but not those of us. You can also see it. Now at the negotiation table, who of us is more powerful? You have a clear score. Of course, you may not be familiar with it. Some things about the negotiation, in fact, if it weren’t because our boss still has such a level of kinship with your Northern Empire, we might not talk to you here. We are not used to winning on the battlefield and being It’s been a long time for us at the negotiating table. Some things in front of us should be carried out in this way. If we can’t end this way, we won’t need to continue talking about some things in the future. I don’t know you. What does it mean? According to your prince, it’s not as good as what the Northern Empire said you can give, and the rest don’t need us to say anything. Meeting on the battlefield is actually good. I know that we have not started this war. You have never suffered a loss. Do you really have to be like the Western Empire. If you have suffered a loss on the battlefield, will you negotiate with us at the negotiating table?" De Yinyin said, his words are already at the extreme. In fact, the people of Cao's House of Business are also wondering at this time. What are the reasons for the people of the Northern Empire and where are they? How hard is it?I really don't know what's in their minds.How could you say such arrogant words?Is it because of such a little friendship?In other words, relatives that do not exist at all. In fact, all major empires have some relatives, but in the face of huge interests, such relationships are simply useless at all. Yesterday may have said very well. of.Maybe it’s because of this incident today. At the end of the day, it’s what you all know. From the very beginning, the people in the Cao’s House of Business have never seen the relationship of the Northern Empire’s cohort. Yes, at the beginning of the war, the people of the Northern Empire didn’t care about the problem of mischief. At that time, they concentrated a lot of their power and wanted to kill the people of Cao’s Commercial Bank. You can do this. Come out, we can do the same.

"The words of Master Minde are a bit too much. Our Northern Empire lost some on the battlefield in the early stages of the war, but this is nothing. For our entire empire, we can all lose such losses. Can bear it, within a certain range, we must know that our northern empire still has soldiers who can conquer billions of soldiers. As far as I know, the Cao’s business is very powerful, but now you are developing. It’s too fast. If there is no such reason, the people from your Cao’s house would not come to negotiate with us. That’s right, for you, the negotiation was indeed proposed by us, but you are also advantageous. At that time, the people of Cao’s House of Business would never negotiate, because you all understand that what you get on the battlefield will be more real and better than what you get at the negotiating table, and that’s why. The reason, I know that you all have your own measures in doing things. Since things are in this place, it is useless to talk about other things. Our northern empire is limited in what we can give up. 100 provinces are 100 billion silver. The biggest limit that can be waived. If you can accept it, our negotiations will continue. If you can’t accept it, I can only express regret. After I go back, I think we may need to negotiate, but it’s a big deal. These are the two aspects.” Prince Wanhuai also had a certain emotion today, but this is indeed their bottom line. Just like what he said, although there are many things inside the Northern Empire, the Northern Empire’s People are not defeated at this time, just some small-scale failures. Let them accept huge failures. This is also a very cruel thing for them. The things he put forward were proposed by the Cao family firm. There are a lot of differences, and the Cao’s family firm basically admits the territorial issue. They can’t manage 100 provinces temporarily, but if the issue of the garrison cannot be solved, there will be more trouble in the future. Yes, those garrisons had a good effect before.Now that they refused, it will have a big impact on the next deployment of Cao's house. Wu Zuoxi and Min De both glanced at each other. When they came just now, the military department had already said that the army in front could still capture more It’s a province, but that’s already the army’s greatest expansion force.Is it necessary to put more pressure on the Northern Empire at this time? Is it not enough for them?If this is the case, it should give them some pressure.

"The river beach can be over. The people in Cao's house have never thought that it took such a long time. We got these so-called things here. All the people in Cao's house have their own new talents. If you people in the Northern Empire want to continue negotiations, this matter is not that simple. The people in Cao's Commercial Bank will also have some ideas of their own. We can't just let things go on like that. You guys I believe you will understand some things. The behavior of the Northern Empire is very surprising in our eyes. If you continue to make trouble about this matter, we will not be soft. Please leave us in three days. In the city, the front-line army continues to enter a state of war. Since you don’t want to negotiate with us in this way, then we will fight you a war that will convince you. There is nothing wrong with us. Possibly, we will do this well. I hope that you will have this mentality in the future. If you are not with you, we still have a lot of things." Wu Zuoxi stood up and said, Min De also I stood up together, although I also felt that Wu Zuoxi's decision was a bit too much, but there is no other statement.Especially in front of outsiders, this kind of performance is something that should be done. If you don't behave like this, it will be a huge problem. Sometimes this kind of thing has to be done.Otherwise, it is impossible for good things to happen. Sometimes things are so difficult. Prince Wanhuai and the people he brought with him are also dumbfounded. How could such things happen? They just I just wanted to test it out. They didn't expect such a thing to happen in the end. They didn't expect that the negotiation would break down like that. In fact, they didn't want this, but there is no way. Since it has already happened, There is nothing to say, they will all understand. In the future, they will let the war explain everything, but what they say is the bottom line of the Northern Empire. If this Cao family firm cannot accept it, it will continue to talk about it. It’s impossible for them to achieve any results if they’re wasting time. From this point of view, they’ve done a very correct one. They don’t say anything about other things. They all know these things clearly. These people from the Northern Empire also stood up and left here politely. It didn’t happen because of the breakdown of the negotiation. These people also understood that, no matter what, it can only be like this. It is necessary to maintain a demeanor. of.

When Li Wei looked at the two of them coming in, he basically knew what was going on. This must be a failure, and there is nothing left to say. What he has to do now is how to put some pressure on the people in the Northern Empire. That's it, the war must not continue to be dragged on. If it is dragged on, it will not benefit the Cao family firm at all. If the people of the Northern Empire see that they have no ability to attack at all, It is estimated that the people of the Northern Empire may do some terrible things in the end. What they do can really make these people crazy. If this is the case, then you must order the frontline Hong Lie to quickly give the Northern Empire. One round of blows is enough, let them all understand that Cao’s business is not a sick cat, as long as we want to, we can give you a blow quickly, and let the people of the Northern Empire return to the negotiating table. If it can look like this, that would be the best thing. If it can’t, it’s very likely that something big will happen. Then it’s definitely not what they can think of. If the people of the Northern Empire knew about Cao’s business Under the current situation, it might be possible to switch to a counterattack. Li Wei immediately asked the staff to report to himself on the latest situation on the front line. The mobile force available on the front line was less than three divisions. They can quickly occupy one or two provinces. This is absolutely impossible. Under such huge war conditions, this is nothing like ordinary petty fights, which cannot make the people of the Northern Empire feel. It hurts.If they don’t feel the pain, they won’t be able to negotiate with the Cao’s merchants. In the end, it’s the Cao’s merchants who will suffer. They can all do such things. Since they are so, come here. Just one big one.Li Cong took a look at the army at the headquarters and used an airship to send them over in a month, but this requires Li Cheng to do something more adventurous, although this is the inland area of ​​the Cao’s house. , But if the control is not good, some serious things will happen. The security here is not a trivial matter, but it can support the army of the past ten divisions on the front line. They are all the most powerful military.It is no problem to lay down fifteen provinces. This will allow the people of the Northern Empire to understand how terrifying the people of Cao's Commercial Firm are. At that time, the people of the Northern Empire might be crazy. Yes, they don’t know how to do other things. The fastest thing they can do is to quickly negotiate with the people of Cao’s house. Besides, they have nothing else to do. They all understand this. The importance of.At that time, the contract will not be signed with us, just let them sign it directly on the front line.If you don’t want it, there’s nothing to say about it, just let you know how powerful we are. It’s impossible to hit your capital, but for a beheading action or something, the army will be sent directly to you. It’s no problem to go to Beijing.This thing can be done well, and everyone knows this thing.

"Relocate our army here? Isn't this a bit too desperate? Although our places are some inland areas, the people around them have been surrendering to us for a long time, generally speaking, they will not If there is a problem, but if there is a problem, we can't suppress it. These people may not be able to trust them 100%. I think it is better to discuss this matter from a long-term perspective, or let the recruits go up. Try it, or let them exercise in the past. Sometimes this kind of exercise is very good. If it can’t, many bad things will happen in the future.” Wu Zuoxi heard Li Yun’s After this idea, I will instinctively feel that it is not very reliable. This is not impossible, but the risk is too big. It is not time to take the risk. It is just that Li Wei's appearance is actually quite confident, so it is not. Whatever I said, Minde also means this. Anyway, the headquarters is the most important place. If nothing else, there are too many good things here. The huge warehouse can be used. It’s nothing else, it’s all gold and silver. If someone really robbed this place, the incident would be big enough. It is estimated that Li Cong will be back by then, but there are some around here. There are hundreds of millions of civilians, and it’s impossible to have an army without a few million. Now we have to relocate all of them. There will be three divisions with less than two million troops. This ratio is really a bit low. Continue There may not be any good results if the trouble goes on, so it is better to have a little idea.

"Hehe, both of you sit down first. Don’t worry about this problem so much. I’m not a fool. I don’t know how to do things that put us all in danger. I do it on my own. The reason, haha, although our army has all gone, but I think there are not many slaves in the rich and powerful houses of our Cao family business firm. They are all on the battlefield before, let them They may be a little older when they continue on the battlefield, but if they are organized, they are also a good security army, Mr. Wu, as far as I know, your family can make up a few thousand. People come, and your slaves have a lot of slaves. I think it should be no problem if you bring tens of thousands of people in your family, and it's also in the slack time of the farm, and all those people on your village are also It's okay, of course, this will not treat them badly, they are all given to them according to the money of the regular army, and they are on rotation, but they are only responsible for some public security issues. As long as the conflicts in the Northern Empire are resolved, they will still Those who come back to your home, just give them a fight to recover. I don’t know what your thoughts are?” Li Wei’s idea is really a good idea. The other two people also nodded. It seems that they too They all support this idea very much. In fact, Li Yun's idea is really very good. Other people don't know what is going on, but Li Yun knows it very clearly.Don't underestimate the domestic slaves of these people, they are very powerful in combat.

To be honest, Wu Zuoxi is very clear about the domestic slaves in his own family. There are thousands of nursing homes in his own family. All of them were from the regular army of Cao's business in the past. Because of the older age.It’s not very suitable for development in the army, so I went to my own home to serve as a nursing home, but they didn’t leave behind their skills or anything. Just like Li Cong said, if they were allowed to go to the battlefield, it would be possible. There will be some shortcomings, but if they are all guards, they are also talented. It is okay to be a street patrol around, and they are not fools these years.It's okay to mix people. Everyone has a few minions. A minion can bring out several people at least. It's really not a problem to bring out thirty or forty thousand people. Besides, your own house Those who also gave them money, if they do well, they will have a face here.This kid, Li Wei, is really unkind. Who doesn't care about his face these days.These people go out to represent their own face. It is estimated that their weapons are all good. These people like Wu Zuoxi paid their own money. They don’t want their subordinates to be so embarrassed. Things are very clear, and they all have to do that.If someone does that and you don't do that, many people will come to trouble you in the future. These people can do anything, and they are not fools.All of them have their own way of doing things.

However, if this is the case, the law and order in the rich and powerful homes will drop by a big level. There has been no similar situation in this period of time. Of course, they can also keep some people. These people can give One of their benefits is that they can also be upgraded to become first-class fighters. As long as the upgrade is successful, they can have great abilities in the future, and they can do very well when doing things. It is said that the two aspects are not delayed. As long as this kind of thing is done well, it is a Suntory situation. It is really good for Li Wei to have such an idea. Wu Zuoxi thought about it and said, "I can make up tens of thousands here. The people here are only in the army before, but now they have not been in the army for a long time, and there are many secular customs in society, sometimes they do not so much It’s good. If something like this really happens, it will have a big problem. I don’t think it’s better. We don’t need to do things too much. Just give them some time directly and slowly. Now, you have to do a good job in compensation. This is to take out the people at the bottom of the box. If you can’t give them a satisfactory approach, it is estimated that there will be many people who have come out to make trouble this time.” Wu Zuoxi Said with a smile, one thing is solved just like that. Anyway, it is a good thing. Min De on the side is also relieved. You know that the decision to start the war came to mind for the two of them. If it is solved now If not, there will be a lot of joint and several liabilities in the future. If the Northern Empire really enters the counter-offensive, the two of them will have really great sins.

This guy Li Wei is very anxious to do things. On that day, this matter was given as an order. The following powerful people were discussing this matter one by one. In their opinion, this matter is actually It’s nothing, it’s just that you have to quickly sign a contract for these nursing homes. Now that they are all ordinary people, they naturally feel that the salary is very suitable, but this time everything will become a first-level one. Warriors, at that time they wouldn’t care about such things anymore, and such things weren’t a good thing for them, and they wouldn’t be interested in such things anymore. After all, they became After becoming a first-level fighter, if you want to make money, there will be more aspects and more choices. Who is willing to continue to serve you as a nursing home here? Li Wei also said this. , When you get better, you will go out and want to mix it up by yourself. Don’t overdo it. After all, if you ask for them at this time, you can just sign a service contract for a few years. We will talk about the future. That's it. After all, people have the ability to control them for a lifetime.

When Prince Wanhuai was leaving, he saw the Cao’s family firm’s army gathering. Their news was sent back quickly with flying monsters, but the flying monsters were ambushed on the way. If it is normal, Cao’s The people from the family business will come with you upright, but now and that time are not the same treatment. Now the people of the Cao family business do not have enough troops. It is good for you to not accept the news. Ours People can start a raid. In fact, when the Northern Empire's court received the news, their people had already lost more than three provinces. This was something the Northern Empire's court did not expect.

Prince Wanhuai didn’t have a very good life after he returned. Actually, this matter has nothing to do with him. It can be seen personally. The people at Cao’s House of Business didn’t want to negotiate at all. They all wanted it. It disrupted the negotiation, but now there is no other way. It can only be started like this. Since there is such an idea, there is nothing else to say. It can only be that this guy’s luck is not very good. Anyway, in the future, as long as you talk to the people of Cao’s house, basically no one wants to go, good fellow, if you go to such a thing, you will be a dead person. Who would be foolish to do such a thing? It’s not the same as it was at the beginning. At that time, as long as you had a little relationship with the people of Cao’s house, then you could make money. Not only does it have no such benefits, you may lose your head. , This kind of thing will often appear before.(To be continued...)
