City of Sin: Under the 1981 negotiations
The face of Ougen Earl immediately became ashen, shouting loudly: "Sir Richard! You are provoking a Earl!"
"A court Earl." Richard poked coldly at Ougen's sore spot. The palace Earl's territory is often not as big as a jazz, and it can be very difficult to make up a si army of 200 people and equip them with shiny armor. Expecting how effective this army is, it is totally extravagant.
The face of Ougen Earl is so blue, he needs to control himself so that he ca n’t resist throwing the whip in his hand to the face of Richard. A duel with a Grand Mage is definitely synonymous with stupidity. Ougen Earl is just some general máo disease with court nobles, but it is not stupid.
"Do you want to go to war with Green Deer Earl and Duke Glassbow?" Ougen shouted.
"Earl, do n’t forget your identity! Do you have the right to provoke war? Do n’t forget what you are for! If you really want to fight, then I can accompany you. But I want to give Your advice is, I ’m not going to make any ransom from you. A court Earl is worth less. "Richard reminded Ougen coldly.
Resolving disputes between domestic nobles often goes to war. This is the internal friction that each confer a Noble Title has tried to restrain the vassal, but it cannot be completely stopped. But generally speaking, in addition to blood revenge, the nobles must be respected as long as they surrender, let alone kill the prisoners, and the ransom is also closely related to the integrity of the prisoners. Richard may not kill him, but it is easy to lack arms and less tui.
Ougen Baron's face was blue and white, and he was speechless for a while. He wanted to directly order the whole army to shock, and cut both Richard and his men in one fell swoop. But reason is reminding Ougen that he really wants to give this order, only his own si army will obey.
The three hundred Qingwei Qingqi belong to the royal armament and are responsible for protecting the mother of Zim, which is the sister of the king today. This time lending to Ougen Baron is just for his strong momentum, lest the Richard lion speak big. If the order of Ougen has the potential to endanger Zim, then this light cavalry may be the first to deal with Earl.
Earl took a deep breath for several times before suppressing the anger in Xiong, and then said coldly: "So, Sir Richard.Archeron, are you going to talk to me about the ransom?"
"Of course not!" Richard smiled, ransom is always a pleasant word. "Come with me, I will show you the Viscount Zim first, and then go to my conference room to talk about the ransom. But I do n’t have good black tea and refreshments, no porcelain and oil paintings. In addition, except for your own Outside Personal Guard, all people must camp at a kilometer away. Of course, those trucks can be delivered first! "
Soon after, Ougen Earl and Zim Viscount met and confirmed the Viscount ’s health. You can tell the Viscount's health by listening to the vibe's full cry.
However, the following negotiation process is somewhat beyond the expectations of Richard.
Ougen Earl seems to remain unrelenting, and he is not allowed to lose ground in the ransom negotiations, and he comes up with a dedication to duel with Richard. At the most tense moment, Ougen Earl even threatened to go home, and then to another person to negotiate with Richard.
This tough attitude makes Richard feel very much about accident/surprise. According to common sense, the other party sent to preside over the ransom negotiation should not be a motivated guy, especially for a captive of special significance like Zim. It seems that Direwolf Duke said that the royal family does not value Viscount's face, which is still reasonable.
The accident/surprise toughness of Ougen made Richard begin to re-examine the amount of ransom. It seems that this should be near the opponent's bottom line, and he does not want to hold the captain of Zim Viscount in his hands. Once Ougen returns and replaces with a newcomer, most of the time will pass by half a month. For Richard, the most precious is time.
The plan proposed by Ougen is cash for 50,000 gold coins, valuable goods worth 30,000 gold coins for twenty cars, and magic materials worth 20,000 gold coins. The total ransom is one hundred thousand gold coins.
However, Richard has seen those so-called valuable goods, in fact, they are all kinds of decorative stones, such as marble, black sand and gold silk. If these stones are used in the newly built castle of Richard, it can definitely reach Earl level. Being able to send these things shows that Green Deer Earl has indeed taken care of it. The collection of these precious stones is not easy, and the converted value is very fair, even low. Any decent noble will be very happy if they receive such a gift when building a castle.
However, the problem is that Richard does n’t want to build the castle luxuriously and comfortably. He only considers the defensive ability, preferably as strong as a military fortress. Therefore, this batch of stones is of no significance to Richard except for its solidity. What he really valued was 50,000 gold coins and magic materials, that is what can be immediately transformed into combat power.
Richard has carefully measured that even if there are only 50,000 gold coins, the revenue generated in a month will exceed 20,000 gold coins. No further negotiations are necessary. What he badly needs now is to participate in the Bloodstained Lands dispute.
So Ougen and Richard finally reached an agreement.
After jiāo paid the ransom, the two sides signed a permanent armistice agreement. Of course, everyone knows that the effectiveness of this thing is only whether the party who wants to fight has accumulated enough power. The whole meaning of this paper for Richard is that if the next war with the Viscount Zim still occurs on his territory, the ransom of the Viscount will be more than doubled.
The next day, Ougen Earl took Zim and left Richard's territory. As for the Warrior, where the Viscount was captured, it would be released in batches.
It seems to be a happy result. Whether Ougen, Zim or Richard, they are very satisfied with the final outcome, although the reasons for the satisfaction of the three people are different.
Richard got the much-needed cash and magic materials, Zim finally got rid of the prisoner career; he can return to his luxurious life, and he can even call a new army to try to retaliate against Richard. And Ougen Earl, through the attitude of anger and defending honor, changed the original gold part of the ransom from 80,000 to 50,000. The 30,000 gold coins saved all went into his own pocket. For a court Earl with limited territory, 30,000 gold coins is one year's income. For this income, Ougen Earl also took a great risk. When he heard the threat of Richard, he had the idea of giving up, but in the dazzling light of gold coins, he persisted.
