Inside The Black Mist Chapter 1420: Go to sea
In a conference hall that can accommodate nearly a hundred people, the preparations for the negotiation have been completed. Under the guidance of Olgali, Tian Yang led Chi Ying into the hall and sat in his seat.
His position is in the second row of the negotiating table, the first row is the negotiating team headed by Fernando, and Olga Li is also sitting in the second row, just to the left of Tianyang.
People entered the hall one after another, and Fernando's negotiating team soon arrived. The middle-aged general saw Tian Yang's chin slightly, and then sat in the first row. It was far away from the negotiating team of Sequoia Castle.
Tianyang looked around and didn't see the young city lord Andre, but he was not surprised. For things like negotiations, the city lord is not suitable to do it himself.
Soon, people from Sequoia Fort and Iron Blood Fort arrived.
Although Derek, the lord of Sequoia Castle, did not receive any unfair treatment, as a prisoner, he naturally couldn't raise his spirits. When he walked into the conference hall, he was depressed. There was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.
The negotiation team of Iron Blood Fort was headed by a man with a thin face and dark circles under his eyes. Olgali introduced Tianyang in a low voice: "That is Raymond Garnett."
For the commander in charge of the frontline war, Tianyang couldn't help but take a few more glances. Lei Meng noticed Tianyang's sight, and looked up, and Tianyang was reflected in his eyes.
He thought that Tianyang was just one of the officials of Silver Dragon Castle. Although he was a little younger, he didn't pay much attention to him. At the moment, he was focused on negotiating, and at the same time, he was a little confused about the bottom line of the negotiation given by the city lord Beria. .
The bottom line given by the city lord is too loose, with a taste of calming down, which is far from the previous iron-blooded methods of the city lord. If he hadn't gone back to the fortress, met the city lord in person, and heard Beria say this bottom line with his own ears, Lei Meng would have suspected that Beria had been replaced by someone in disguise.
After taking his seat, Fernando gave the general opposite him a hard look, and said in a deep voice, "Let's start."
From the very beginning of the negotiation, Fernando made a series of requests to Sequoia Castle, including the cession of the territory, as well as compensation in terms of materials and manpower.
With regard to the request made by Iron Blood Fort, under Derek's instruction, the staff of Red Shirt Fort fought hard according to reason, and finally reached a consensus with Fernando with two-thirds of the request made by Iron Blood Fort, and signed the agreement. treaty.
Then they started negotiations with Iron Blood Fort. Iron Blood Fort was obviously not as easy to handle as Sequoia Castle. terms, so the two generals started another 'war' at the negotiating table.
As an observer, Tianyang did not interrupt. He watched with interest as Lei Meng refused to give an inch, and Fernando argued with every penny. One-third of the items.
At noon, Tianyang came to the dining room of the negotiation hall, where there were several long tables filled with food and drinks for guests to take by themselves.
Walking out of the negotiating hall, Lei Meng seemed to be a different person, chatting happily with the officials of Silver Dragon Fort, seeming to forget that he personally led the troops yesterday, and was almost about to enter Silver Dragon Fort.
When Tianyang took some food by himself, he felt a gaze falling on him. Looking back, he saw a figure flashing out by the door. Although it was just a quick glance, Tianyang was sure that it was a woman.
It's not Olgarie.
Just when he felt strange, he heard the sound of footsteps, and then a voice said: "This is the Tianyang City Lord of Lieyang Castle."
The introducer was Fernando, and the entourages were Raymond and Derek. The lord of Sequoia Castle was Tianyang's defeated general. Seeing Tianyang now, he was quite embarrassed and found an excuse to leave.
Raymond glanced at the Lord of Sequoia Castle, then looked away, looked at Tianyang and said with a smile, "I heard from Lord Derek that the Lord of Tianyang wiped out an elite force in his hand alone. I originally thought that, A strong man like Tianyang City Lord should be of some age, even a white-haired old man is not surprised."
"I didn't expect that the Lord of Tianyang City was so young. He unified the Scavengers City at a young age, established a fortress, and formed an alliance with the Lords of the fortresses such as War God Castle and Silver Dragon Castle."
"City Lord Tianyang really has unlimited potential."
Tianyang smiled slightly and said, "General Lei Meng has won the prize."
Raymond wanted to say something else, but Fernando said in a deep voice, "Our Lord Andre is here."
Sure enough, the young castellan walked into the restaurant surrounded by a group of guards. Lei Meng could only temporarily cancel his decision to talk to Tianyang, and went to meet the young castellan with Fernando.
But before leaving, Lei Meng said softly: "If City Lord Tianyang has time, you can go to our Iron Blood Fortress for a walk. What Silver Dragon Castle can give you, our Iron Blood Fortress can still give you."
Tianyang thought to himself, this Lei Meng really has the style of a general, he can afford it and let it go. He suffered a disastrous defeat because of himself, but he didn't remember hating himself. On the contrary, because he saw the potential of himself and Lieyangbao, he decisively won over.
It's a pity that he and Iron Blood Fort's attention is destined not to cooperate, but to be a master and a slave. Of course, he will not say this now, and smiles when he hears this.
In the afternoon, as soon as Raymond returned to the negotiating table, he turned back into the man who fought for every inch of land. In the end, the negotiation ended. Not only did he keep the bottom line given by Beria, but he was also far behind.
In the evening, the convoys of Jagged Fort and Sequoia Fort left. Tianyang returned to the courtyard and came to the gate, but there were many guards here. Fernando was also by the gate, as if waiting.
Tianyang asked with some doubts: "General Fernando, why are you here?"
Fernando coughed dryly and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Kaqila is waiting for you in the living room."
"Ms. Kaqila?" Tianyang has never heard of this name.
Fernando lowered his voice and said, "Mrs. Kaqila is Lord Andre's mother. She wants to thank you in person for City Lord Tianyang's support of Silver Dragon Castle."
Tianyang said 'Oh' before entering the courtyard. Fernando accompanied him to the door of the living room, and opened the door for him himself: "Please come in."
Tianyang walked in, and saw a figure standing by the window. Hearing footsteps, that person turned around. It was a woman who seemed to be in her early thirties.
This woman has long brown hair that is soft and loose, an oval face, cherry red lips, and fair skin that can be broken with blows.
Seeing that Tian Yang was a little surprised, she smiled and said, "I am not Andre's biological mother, but his stepmother."
Tianyang felt a little embarrassed and said: "Good evening, Mrs. Kaqila."
"Hello, City Lord Tianyang."
Kakila raised her hand and smiled, "Don't be restrained, please sit down."
After Tianyang sat down, he heard the ex-madam of the city lord sigh: "In the past half a month, I have spent every day in worry. If the fortress is broken, Andre will undoubtedly become a sinner. I really don't care. Dare to imagine how tragic it would be for him."
"Fortunately, with the help of City Lord Tianyang, we were able to bring Iron Blood Castle to the negotiating table today and received compensation. City Lord Tianyang, tell me, how should I thank you?"
Kakira held her chest with her hands, her lips were moist, and the light of the setting sun fell on her face, making her eyes look a little hazy.
Tianyang suddenly realized that there was no one else in the living room, just him and Kaqila, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
He hurriedly said: "We are allies, allies should help each other, Mrs. Kaqila is welcome."
Kakila laughed: "How can that be?"
She stood up and said: "I have already agreed with Andre that a part of the compensation from Sequoia Fort and Iron Blood Fort will be transferred to Lieyang Castle to thank the Lord Tianyang for his help."
"That's the deal, please don't refuse the Lord Tianyang."
After leaving these words, Kaqila passed by Tianyang, lowered her head and glanced at him, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, she quickly walked towards the door, pushed it open and walked out.
Seeing Kaqila coming out, Fernando, for some reason, lowered his head and exhaled softly, and then left with the former lady of the city lord.
A few days later, Tianyang was already at sea.
After dealing with the issue of war compensation, the matter of exploring the 'lost city' of Arati was put on the agenda. Olgali led a thousand-man troop from Silver Dragon Fort and took Tianyang The boat goes to sea.
It took them three days, and at noon on the fourth day, Tianyang saw the island where Jinquan Fort was located.
They will resupply here, and then continue sailing for a few days before reaching the sea area where Arati is located.
"Although Jinquanbao claims to be a fortress, it is actually a city built on an island. The land here is fertile and the forest coverage rate is high. It produces fruits and also has copper and iron mineral deposits."
However, the biggest feature of Jinquanbao is the enthusiastic girls on their island. There is a saying in Jinquanbao that even if you are as hard as iron, after you land on the island, you will be as soft as a piece of cheese when you leave. "
"City Master Tianyang, you can go to the bar in Jinquanbao at night and experience it."
On the deck, Olga Li loudly introduced Jinquanbao for Tianyang. Although Tianyang had never been to this island city, he was not unfamiliar. When he was on the expedition against the world, the soldiers from the west land had already told him about it, especially those passionate girls on the island, Tianyang had already heard about it.
Now listening to what Olgali said, Tianyang knew that the female general was teasing him, so he didn't care, and said casually: "If the general is willing to take me to see you, I will be happy to accompany you."
He thought that Olga Li was both a woman and a general, so she should not go in and out of those places. Unexpectedly, the female general heard the words, but said straightforwardly: "Okay, I will take you shopping tonight."
Suddenly, Tianyang felt like he was shooting himself in the foot with a rock.
He held his forehead, thinking that Olga Li came to look for him at night, so why should he go? Or not to go?
For a while, Tianyang was a little tangled.
