Chapter 133 Attitude

Xu Yi looked at Marquis Descartes, who was talking to the representative of the Rulson Kingdom who was in charge of the talks - Earl Didamans, Director of the Rulson Kingdom's Foreign Affairs Department, with undisguised scrutiny in his eyes.

The active peace talks proposed by the Candela Empire this time were both within his expectations and beyond his expectations.

As the war continued, the Kendela Empire suffered disastrous defeats one after another, and realized from these disastrous defeats that the powerful army they were proud of and the magister they relied on were meaningless, so they would definitely think of themselves. It is already difficult to win this war.

In this case, in order to ensure the territorial integrity of the Candela Empire and prevent further losses, it is an inevitable measure for the Candela Empire to initiate peace talks, because if the peace talks are successful, at least it can buy a lot of time for the Candela Empire.

What Xu Yi didn't expect was that the Candela Empire recognized the fact that they couldn't compete with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on the frontal battlefield so early, and proposed peace talks much earlier than Xu Yi expected.

This is enough to prove that the Candela Empire is not all people who live in the tradition and still hold the mentality of "Lao Tzu is the best in the world", but there are many people who can clearly see the situation clearly.

Therefore, Xu Yi personally represented the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this time to participate in the peace talks.

If the Candela Empire can really correctly understand the situation and come up with a plan that satisfies Xu Yi, then he doesn't mind the real peace talks.

After all, the Candela Empire is one of the two largest empires on this continent. With the strength of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, even if it cooperates with several other countries, it is basically impossible to swallow the Candela Empire as a whole.

And it was not what Xu Yi wanted to see by using war to tear the Candela Empire into a mess.

In the history of the earth, there have actually been situations similar to the present.

That is, the ancient Mongolian army had the ability to be completely invincible on the frontal battlefield, which enabled them to sweep across the Eurasian continent on horseback, and built an extremely huge empire that almost covered the entire Eurasian continent.

But such an empire is only occupied in name. In fact, the Mongol Empire's control over its own territory was so weak that it was completely divided before it lasted long, and then gradually withered away.

Xinfei Chamber of Commerce now has invincible combat power on the frontal battlefield with its countless times advanced military magic machinery.

If Xu Yi is willing. In fact, he can also let the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guard team cooperate with several countries to fight the invincible opponents throughout the entire Sainz continent.

However this doesn't make much sense.

Xu Yi's ideal is to establish a complete magic industrial system on the continent of Sainz, and then rely on this system to greatly increase the productivity and production level of this continent, thereby improving the civilization of the entire continent and improving the lives of all people .

War is a means, not an end.

The reason why there will be a war with the traditional strengths represented by the two great empires. It was just because the two empires tried to snatch away from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce the dominance of building the magic industry system and the huge benefits contained in it.

For these benefits, Xu Yi doesn't care about sharing them out, but for this dominant power, Xu Yi does not allow it to fall into the hands of others.

Apart from himself, Xu Yi did not believe that there was another person on this continent who had the same knowledge and experience in creating a magic industrial system.

"If this peace talks can be successful, we will of course make some compensation to your country, which I believe will satisfy your country."

At this time, Marquis Descartes had finished his preliminary negotiations with Earl Didamans, and turned to look at Xu Yi.

"President Xu, what is your opinion of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"

Xu Yi smiled slightly: "The peace talks were proposed by your Kandela Empire. Of course, the conditions should be proposed by you first."

"President Xu is right." Marquis Descartes nodded and raised his hand as a gesture.

Two people came out of the Candela Empire envoy behind him, came to Xu Yi and Earl Didamans respectively, took out two documents and handed them to them respectively.

"This is the preliminary peace agreement drafted by the Imperial Council of Elders, please take a look."

Xu Yi and Earl Didamans looked at each other, reached out to take the document, opened it and read it carefully, then frowned slightly.

In this peace agreement, the Candela Empire proposed that the two sides agree to a truce. The Luerson Kingdom and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce withdrew the territory of the Candela Empire, and the Candela Empire did not pursue the losses they caused to the Candela Empire in this war.

This is considered normal, after all, this is the basis for the truce between the two sides.

It's just that in this agreement, the words used by the Candela Empire still carry a hint of superiority. Makes people look uncomfortable.

Of course, the tone and words are not important, what matters is the conditions.

In the truce conditions put forward by the Candela Empire after the agreement, the Candela Empire stated that after the truce, the Candela Empire would reopen to the Kingdom of Lurson and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. And provide a series of preferential policies.

The opening of the Rulson Kingdom is mainly to relieve the consistent hostile policy of the two sides on the border, allowing the civilians and businessmen of the Rulson Kingdom to freely enter the Candela Empire, and at the same time giving special treatment to the civilians of the Candela Empire.

At the same time, the Candela Empire will also withdraw the troops that were originally hoarded on the border of the two sides, and will select ten cities on the border as cities for in-depth cooperation and exchanges between the two sides. The people of the Rulson Kingdom will not have to pay taxes when entering these ten cities, etc... …

In short, a series of conditions revolve around the preferential policies given by the Candela Empire to the Rulson Kingdom. Although it looks good, there is not much content in essence. The Candela Empire will not invest too much manpower in it. physical resources.

Even...these conditions have a hint of charity.

In comparison, the conditions offered by the Candela Empire to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are much better.

The Candela Empire promised that after the truce between the two sides, the Candela Empire would give the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce the same treatment as the Chamber of Commerce within the Candela Empire.

In other words, in the future, any goods from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce entering the Candela Empire will not need to pay additional tariffs, and only need to pay the normal business tax like the Chamber of Commerce in the Candela Empire.

At the same time, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will also be protected by the laws of the Candela Empire. In the event of disputes and various accidents, the Candela Empire officials will provide various supports for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

In addition, the Candela Empire also promised to further cooperate with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, ensuring that any cooperation project with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will receive the highest attention from the Candela Empire and enjoy various priorities and conveniences.

At first glance, these conditions are very attractive, because it can be said to be a great convenience for a chamber of commerce like Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

Just the cancellation of tariffs alone will allow the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to increase the total amount of goods imported from the Candela Empire, thereby obtaining even more astonishing profits.

If there is another ordinary chamber of commerce that obtains such conditions, it will undoubtedly be grateful and honored to the Candela Empire.

But when Xu Yi saw these conditions, he couldn't help but let out a sneer.

"Marquis Descartes, are these all the conditions proposed by your Candela Empire?" Xu Yi mentioned the peace agreement in his hand and asked Marquis Descartes.

The Marquis of Descartes replied with a smile: "This is only a preliminary agreement. If you are not satisfied with President Xu, we can negotiate again."

"I'm not dissatisfied with anything." Xu Yi shook his head, and lightly threw the peace agreement in his hand, and the agreement flew back as if it had grown wings, and landed on the table in front of Marquis Descartes with a snap. Then Xu Yi raised his voice slightly, and continued with a serious face: "I am not satisfied with this whole agreement! Marquis Descartes, if your Candela Empire wants to conduct peace talks with such an attitude, then please go back, and we will go to the battlefield next See you later."

The Marquis Descartes glanced at the agreement on the table, and there was no panic on his face. He just remained silent for a moment, and then continued to smile and said, "President Xu, the peace talks need to be negotiated slowly. If you don't agree with the conditions If you are satisfied, we can re-issue the conditions. Or you can simply propose the conditions that your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce needs, and we will adjust according to the situation, what do you think?"

Xu Yi glanced at him, stood up directly, and left the living room where the tripartite meeting was held.

The other members of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce present did not hesitate at all, and followed Xu Yi and filed out.

Marquis Descartes and all the members of the Candela Empire envoy were all stunned.

They never thought that Xu Yi would be so angry that he turned his face and left on the spot.

This is completely different from the various negotiations in their impressions.

If you are not satisfied with the conditions, the Marquis of Descartes has already said that you can talk slowly, but what is the matter if you leave without saying anything.

Marquis Descartes stayed for a while, then turned his head to Earl Didamans and asked, "Lord Earl, Mr. Xu is... a little unkind? Since you have agreed to have peace talks with us , but now put on such an attitude, isn’t it too much?”

Earl Didamans had a calm and relaxed smile on his face. He glanced at Marquis Descartes, took a sip slowly, and then said leisurely: "Marquis Descartes, don't you understand yet? You Kandela Empire mainly proposed peace talks. But you put forward such conditions as if you were coaxing children. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous? You said President Xu’s attitude is not good, but I just need to ask about your attitude. Ok?"

Marquis Descartes' face darkened: "I've already said that we can discuss in detail if we are not satisfied with the conditions. The so-called negotiation is to finally find a result that everyone is satisfied with, isn't it?"

Earl Didamans smiled, shook his head, put the tea cup in his hand on the table, got up and slowly swayed outside.

The other members of the Rulson Kingdom in the room also left.

In a blink of an eye, only the Candela Empire envoys were left in the reception room of Nuo Da, and even the servants responsible for serving tea and water were withdrawn.

Marquis Descartes and the other members of the envoy looked at each other, speechless for a while. (~^~)
