Chapter 273

Name:Lord of War Author:Wooden cow cat
Negotiation is war and chess in another sense.

This sentence is a famous saying deeply rooted in the bone marrow and soul for any diplomat. Because any little mistake, compromise and concession will bring almost permanent trauma to his family and country.

The compensation of these two barons will make the materials in the territory very poor in the next few years at least. It will be a long time to really recover. The result of this is that the two nobles attached to the boulder family will become a burden and burden to the boulder family, but due to the long-term development policy of the boulder family, it is naturally impossible to abandon the two nobles.

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

This is also a difficult outcome for Ted.

But fortunately, at least one negotiation problem was solved. He braced himself for the next negotiation: "since both sides have no opinion on this article, let's work it out."

"Yes." Sean nodded.

Of course, he should give TEDES some confidence. If he just makes a strong attack without letting people slow down, the string that is too tight will break. Therefore, the proper relaxation rhythm is the real secret to master the rhythm of a negotiation, especially when it is forced to exceed the other party's psychological expectations and force the other party to nod and agree, it is necessary to give the other party a little sweetness, so as to better grasp the rhythm.

Otherwise, once you are beaten by the other party, it's hard to say who controls 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 Neil knocked down his index finger, it was acceptable; If you knock down the middle finger, it means rejection; The ring finger represents that we can strive for greater interests; The tail finger pretends to think for three minutes. With this series of actions, of course, Neil and Cecilia will also speak at an appropriate time to achieve the role of reminding and pertinence. With the cooperation of these three people, TEDES alone will not get any benefits.

You know, even though TEDES is good at negotiation, he has only one person, and his opponents are two opponents whose skills are not under him at all. In particular, Neil is still an elf. For a long time, he has seen a lot of human cunning and aristocratic hidden rules. Therefore, as long as Neil takes the initiative at the negotiation table, it is equivalent to William opening the perspective of battlefield God.

As for Cecilia, she really only made up for and picked up the leak.

When Neil focuses on one aspect, he often ignores other considerations, so some terms can't be so accurate. Cecilia has no obvious advantages and disadvantages, but the identity of a magician makes her extremely intelligent, and her memory and thinking ability are also excellent, so many details can be captured by her immediately, which gives TEDES a headache.

At this moment, Ted had guessed the origin of Cecilia.

But what if you know?

TEDES could only curse in his heart: "it's really a luxury to let a magician participate in the negotiation!"

Not all magicians are so idle.

After reaching an agreement on the compensation of the two barons for this article, the subsequent negotiation of the treaty will be much easier and the progress is obviously much faster. However, having learned the terrible of Sean's team, Ted naturally won't have any time to relax. His high concentration makes him feel a little tired, but that's just the work of negotiation.

"Then next, it is about the two territories currently occupied by your army." TEDES continued, "I hope your excellency can withdraw the general immediately. After all, this is the territory of the kingdom of dabion. Of course, your army, as the victor, can also receive a corresponding compensation. The specific amount of this compensation is the full income of the two territories in the next year. "

"I have exactly the opposite opinion with you on this point." Sean shook his head. "Whether it's the chilav or the Dayi, it will be officially incorporated into my territory, which can't be changed. So nominally, I would like to protest against you, because some time ago, an army belonging to your country broke into my territory under the Dayi leadership. I hope you can immediately stop all actions of this army and withdraw from my territory. Otherwise, I will regard it as an act of declaration of war. "

When he heard Sean's words, Ted's face finally showed a look of shock.

Although Sean really fought back in a favorable name in this war, in this case, according to the aristocratic war treaty, Sean should not occupy the territory, but return the two occupied territories after obtaining sufficient compensation.

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

"Lord Sean, your behavior seems to be against common sense." TEDES also has some doubts. He is really confused now. According to the noble war treaty, such a thing has never happened in the miracle continent, but Sean is obviously unreasonable, which makes TEDES doubt whether his theory is tenable. "According to the noble war treaty, you can't occupy these two territories, Because... After all, it's just a contradiction between nobles. "

"According to the aristocratic treaty, I just shouldn't occupy these two territories, but I didn't say that my behavior was illegal." Sean said without hesitation. As soon as he heard this line, he knew it was obviously after some hard training. "So strictly speaking, my behavior can definitely be regarded as legal."

"But even so, you only have the right to rule these two territories in name. In fact, you still belong to the kingdom of dabion."

Ted doesn't understand.

Neither the chilav collar of Baron lonnis nor the Dayi collar ruled by Viscount Rudd, who is also said to be Sean's prisoner, is an important territory. At least these two territories have no special products, not even mineral veins. The situation of Dayi collar is slightly better, because Viscount Rudd is well managed. At present, there are two trade routes, and the annual profits are more than 100000 gold coins, but even the Lord can only take a share of it, Because the profits of this trade route are not owned by Viscount Rudd alone.

The chilav leader is completely miserable. Because Baron lonnis is not good at internal affairs, the situation of the territory is not much better. It is said that Baron lonnis even spends a sum of money every month to subsidize the troops in the territory. In addition, there are no dangerous places in the Dayi collar, and the terrain in the territory is relatively broad and flat, so the army is not good at defending the border. Although the scale of the chilav collar is much smaller, the border is also narrow and long, which is also not good at defending.

What is the value of such two territories without specialties, mineral veins, resources or even strategic sites?

"I know that very well." Sean nodded. "I'll pay the taxes that should be paid to the kingdom of dabion every year. But I'm still a loyal Ryan. I'm sure Mr. tedders won't convey the wrong opinion when he goes back to retell it? "

Ted looked at Sean with some doubts. He said that if something goes wrong, there must be a demon. This is his negotiation experience for many years. If Sean only wants the Dayi collar, he can also think that this is because the panda collar has no trade route, so he wants to use the Dayi collar trade route to expand a trade route to the panda collar. After all, he has seen that now this originally unknown town has even completed the construction of the outer wall of a city, It is definitely necessary to stimulate the development of the territory through trade.

But Sean still insisted on chilav's leadership, which made him a little confused.

Moreover, after all, the two territories are related to the territory of the kingdom of dabion, which is no longer the business of the boulder family, so TEDES dare not answer: "this is beyond the ability of the boulder family, so the boulder family can't make any compromise on this matter. After all, it's about the two territories, and even if the boulder family wants to agree, they can't come up with relevant territory documents, so it's better for us to remove it from the agreement, how about it? "

"Oh, don't cross it out. You can draft another one and give it to your majesty at that time." Sean smiled. "On the specific issues of these two territories, I have reached an agreement with Viscount Rudd and Baron lonnis, and they all agree to transfer them to me. While saying this, Neil handed a copy of the document to TEDES: "and Baron lonnis has promised to have the document sent immediately as long as he returns home. I'm just telling you this now. I hope you can help convey the news to your majesty. "

"Since Viscount Rudd has given you the proof of the territory, he should return to Wangdu to report..."

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

"There are some things we don't have to say, do we?" Sean smiled. "Viscount Rudd is actually just a victim. Since the kingdom of dabion doesn't want him, isn't it normal for him to choose a better future So I hope that when you convey the message to your majesty, you'd better remind him that Rudd Michelin is already a knight under my command. I hope you don't make any malicious harassment against him, otherwise I will be regarded as declaring war. "

"This is the declaration of war against me by the kingdom of dabion, you know?"

Cecilia glanced at Sean, her face full of helplessness: it's really a naked face and provocation( To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly ticket at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
