Chapter 1300 Negotiation

Another five days passed without any progress. Gong Xiaobai Yumei and the others tried their best to solve the food problem.

Seeing that the deadline for delivering food to the God-descendants was getting closer, it would be too late if they didn't make a decision.

In the end, Gong Xiaobai had no choice but to compromise, and asked Aopu to negotiate with the nobles and aristocratic families behind him on his behalf.

But compromise is compromise, Gong Xiaobai and Mei Mei still did not give up, they wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to catch the clues of nobles and aristocratic families.

However, although the nobles and aristocratic families agreed, they handed over the negotiation to Aopu, while they still hid behind him and controlled it in the air.

The reason why they dare not show their faces is naturally because they are afraid of being discovered by Nirvana City. Once they are exposed, they will be destroyed. Only in the dark can they be safe and become a threat to Nirvana City.

Gong Xiaobai was naturally disappointed to see that the mastermind behind Opu could not be elicited, but there was nothing he could do.

Negotiations proceed quickly.

Aopu faced the ten-member negotiating team headed by Yu Mei from Nirvana City alone. Although there were few people on his side, he took the initiative, so he acted aggressively after the negotiation started.

"I'm here with sincerity, and I hope you don't go too far."

"Who is going too far? It's obvious that you are going too far. What sincerity? Why can't I see any sincerity?"

On the negotiating table, Lewis slapped the table and angrily scolded Opp.

"I've made concessions."

"I don't want the coinage right anymore, I just want to participate in the investment and get 30% of the profit."

"I have also proposed changes to the tax exemption right. I only require tax exemption on daily necessities, and the rest will be taxed as usual."

"Only the last one has not been modified, but this one doesn't really matter to Nirvana City. After the construction of the new city, there will definitely be a shortage of people in various departments. We send you talents, isn't it also to solve your urgent needs?"

"I have already made such a big concession, how can I say that I am not sincere, it is so sad."

Opp made a grievance.

Charming said coldly: "Is this a concession? Minting coins is for the people's livelihood, not for profit. Every coin has a corresponding value, and it also contains the credibility of the City Lord's Mansion. What will happen if you grab benefits from it?" As a result, don't you know."

Gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, the three kinds of coins have different purchasing power, and the value contained thereafter is also different.

For a gold coin to be spent and recognized, the most important thing is the credibility of the minter.

For example, the former gold coins of the Federation weighed thirty grams and were pure gold.

Before the turmoil in the Federation, a family of five could feed and drink enough for at least half a year.

Now, after the federal turmoil, the value of gold coins has plummeted, and at most it is only enough for the same family to save for half a month.

Why.

Because originally, before the turmoil in the Federation, a gold coin had a value of 1:10 against gold, that is to say, a good gold coin could be exchanged for 300 grams of gold. The corresponding gold can be cashed out.

But in the federation after the turmoil, in order to make money and embezzle gold, the crazy members of the parliament secretly minted bad coins wrapped with other cheap metals and put them into the market, and by manipulating market transactions, wantonly collected pure gold coins as their own.

After a period of time passed and bad coins circulated in large quantities, they found a suitable time to announce that they would not recognize that such bad coins had the same value as pure coins, and that they could not be exchanged for the original gold.

As a result, the value of gold coins plummeted, and the congressmen were full, but it was the market that suffered, and the people who suffered.

The actions of the parliament caused the economy of the cities in the controlled area to collapse, and the people were in dire straits, and their credibility was so low that they would have been overthrown by the people under their control long ago if they hadn't been violently suppressed by a huge army.

Back to Op's topic of taking away 30% of the mint profits.

When Nirvana City mints coins in the future, it plans to use pure gold, which is traditionally the most acceptable to the public.

And each gold coin represents a certain value of gold, that is to say, how much gold reserves Nirvana City has, only a corresponding number of gold coins will be minted and circulated.

According to the conditions proposed by Aopu, this is tantamount to forcing Nirvana City to mint gold coins, because only by doing so can a part of gold be spared and profits can be generated.

Although legally adulterated gold coins can also be used in circulation, the value remains unchanged.

However, with the Federal Council at the expense of others and self-interest, the public will definitely not agree with this kind of bad currency, which will directly reduce the credibility of Nirvana City. This is absolutely not advisable behavior.

Moreover, it will not be recognized if it is used to trade with other cities or forces in the future.

So Aopu said it was a concession, but it was actually destroying the image of Nirvana City in the hearts of the people in a disguised form, and it would greatly hinder the future foreign transactions of Nirvana City.

After refuting the first article, Mei Mei said again: "Everyday items are exempt from tax, while others are subject to tax. You can say such things, but are we fools?"

Now the most important transactions in Nirvana City are daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil and salt. Other commodities are not well developed, and there is no tax at all. For example, there are basically no luxury goods.

Therefore, the article mentioned by Opus can actually be said to have not changed at all. Even if it has, it will take a long, long time, and it is impossible to change it in at least 20 or 30 years.

"As for the place of employment, if the talents you recommend can accept our management, I sincerely sincerely, Your Highness, we have no objections here, but what do you use to assure us?"

After rebutting one by one, Mei Mei showed a sarcastic expression.

Aop shrugged, and said indifferently: "Then how do you want to change it?"

Charming said directly: "If it is based on the three conditions you put forward, then it is unnecessary, and we will definitely not agree."

Opu said with a downcast face, "That's nothing to talk about."

Op stood up as if to leave.

Charming watched with a cold face, as if she didn't care at all about his leaving.

Although the others were a little anxious, they still took the lead with a charming attitude, and sat down in their seats with restrained apprehension.

Seeing this, Opu stepped forward, walked to the door, stretched out his hand to the doorknob and pressed it, as if he really wanted to open the door and leave.

Charming still didn't make a sound to persuade her to stay.

There was silence.

"Crack."

The sound of the door opening sounded, and Opp walked out quickly.

Seeing that Op had really left, Lewis became anxious, and wanted to make a noise to keep him, but was stared at by Mei Mei coldly and sat back down.

It's over, there's nothing to talk about now.

Lewis leaned back in his chair listlessly.

The rest of the negotiating team looked at each other in blank dismay. They never expected that today's negotiation would break up without a word of conversation.

The others present whispered.

"What should we do now? We can't talk about it. Could it be that we can't get food."

"Oh, there's no other way. The other party's conditions are too unreasonable. If you really want to agree, I'm afraid this Nirvana City will change its owner in the future."

"Damn it, those mice hiding in the gutter are so greedy. Aren't they afraid that they will be exposed one day and be punished by Qiuhou?"

"That also requires us to be able to support until then."

Everyone fell into pessimism.

Just when everyone was worried about the next fate of Nirvana City, the door was opened again, and Opus who had left came in again.

Everyone looked at Aop in confusion, wondering why he came back after leaving.

Only charming can understand it.

"Why, why come back? It's not that there's nothing to talk about."

Aopu pretended to be surprised, and said, "When did I say I was leaving, I just went to the toilet."

The other people present were surprised when they heard this, and looked at Opu strangely.

"I'll go, he was bluffing just now."

"Nimma, pretend to leave. Co-authoring is a psychological game with us to see who can't help it first. It's too insidious."

"If Lord Charming hadn't been able to calm down just now, once we took the initiative to find him, we would have been passively controlled."

Everyone broke out in cold sweat.

It was the same for Lewis this time, and he secretly rejoiced that luckily he didn't make a sound just now, otherwise he would have become a sinner.

So everyone cast admiring glances at Meimei.

But what they don't know is that Meimei herself is very confused.

Before Opp left, she really felt that the two sides could not continue the conversation, and there was no need to continue the conversation. The reason why Lewis was prevented from speaking out was to save face.

Although she was misunderstood by the people on her side, Mei Mei continued to pretend that nothing had happened.

"I don't care whether you really go to the toilet or not, as far as the conditions you said, we will never agree, so there is nothing to talk about between us."

Now that the Opus people are back, they definitely want to continue the conversation, so Meimei speaks very directly, and she is not afraid of Opu's embarrassment and leaving.

"Haha, Miss Charming doesn't need to make a decision like this, I think we can still talk about it."

Opp laughed.

"Since you think I'm not sincere, I'll show my sincerity and talk to you now."

Oprah opened the chair and sat down and said: "If you really don't want to accept the conditions we put forward, how about I let you make the conditions instead? As long as it is suitable, I will agree to it. Now my sincerity is enough. .”

Mei Mei didn't give any face, and said sarcastically: "You are just a mouthpiece put forward by those nobles and aristocratic families, what ability do you have to promise for them?"

Aopu was not angry at all, put his fists together against his chin, stared straight at Meimei and said: "Whether you are capable or not is my business, I just ask if you want to continue talking."

Mei Mei looked at Opu silently for a while and said: "The most we can do here is to use money to buy your food, nothing else."

Aopu shook his head and laughed, "That's not okay. If we want to exchange grain for money, why don't we sell it directly in the market? We don't like the money."

"It's you instead, would you like to?"

Charming: "I'm not as dark-hearted as yours. If I have food in my hands, I will directly hand it over to Nirvana City in exchange for more legitimate benefits, instead of asking for unrealistic things."

"You can take this opportunity to appear in Nirvana City openly, why do you have to do something secretly?"

If those nobles and aristocratic families can take the initiative to help Nirvana City overcome the difficulties, then she and Gong Xiaobai will definitely be grateful to them. At that time, the nobles and aristocratic families will live and operate in Nirvana City in an upright manner, and they may not become the roles on stage. Among the forces of Nirvana City play an important role.

Mei Mei really couldn't figure out why those nobles and aristocratic families were so fond of conspiracies and tricks, acting as dirty rats in the sewers, and doing some dirty tricks.

Opus laughed and said, "This is just your idea. We hide only to protect ourselves, and what we do is just to have confidence and security in front of you and make ourselves safer."

"Don't talk so high-soundingly, people have evil hearts, everything they see is black, everything they do is dark, what excuses are you looking for?" Charming said coldly.

Opp shrugged and said, "Okay, you just think I'm really making excuses, and now I still have to say what I should say."

"Anyway, what you just said about using money to buy our food is absolutely not acceptable. The price is too low."

"You know, what we provide is food that can support all the places under Nirvana City until the next harvest, and can also save you a lot of trouble. This cannot be bought with just money."

"You just said that we are not sincere, what about you?"

Opp sneered in return.

"us?"

"Hmph, it's not because we rescued you that you can live carefreely in Nirvana City like you are now."

"If it weren't for us, you would either die in the workplace of the wild beastmen or the demons, or you would be killed directly. How can you repay the kindness of saving your life like this?"

"Now Nirvana City is in trouble, but you are taking advantage of the fire to loot, saying that you have no conscience to explain your bad behavior."

What Mei Mei said immediately aroused the support of the members of the negotiating team.

"That's right, if we hadn't gone to the southern border to rescue you, you would have died a long time ago, it's really ungrateful."

"Fortunately, you are still a human race like us, and your current behavior is even worse than the god-descendants who invaded Jiangcheng."

"Not a son of man."

"Know that this will happen, you should not have been rescued before."

Everyone shouted and condemned.

But Aopu didn't change his face, and he wasn't ashamed at all. Instead, he said shamelessly: "Did we ask you to rescue us? You forced us to leave our hometown and live here, so there is no kindness at all, right?" .”

"Gan"

Never seen such a brazen person.

He even said that he forced them on his side, and this rescue also saved a theory that they were forced to leave their homes.

The people on the negotiating team immediately got angry, rolled up their sleeves aggressively, jumped on the table, and prepared to beat up Op.

"That's enough, sit down for me."

A charming voice stops.

Everyone was unwilling, but under the charming and stern eyes, they could only sit down with a stomach full of anger.

After stopping the crowd, Meimei looked at Op with frost in her eyes and said coldly, "I have kept these words in my heart. One day, you will regret it."

Opus didn't take it seriously, "I'll wait."

Mei Mei clenched her fists, restrained herself, and said in a deep voice: "We can agree to let your people join the local department to participate in the management. Apart from this, we will not agree to any conditions."

Not wanting to delay the negotiation any longer, Mei Mei weighed it up and took a step back.

Opp shook his head, "Not enough."

Charming: "Then what else do you want?"

Opu looked up at Mei Mei with an intriguing smile, and said, "Human, we still need people."

Mei Mei frowned, "Man, who is it?"

Op: "Women, three women."
