Gold coin is justice - Chapter 1352

Ariel turned to the queen next to her and said slowly, “since her majesty succeeded to the throne for 20 years, she has made great efforts to govern. The whole Hunter empire can be regarded as booming. You continuously mine all kinds of mines in the territory of hunter and specialize in smelting. For a moment, the whole golden continent knows that the best weapons and equipment in the world must come from the hunter, and the best craftsman must be the hunter’s craftsman. ”

“It is precisely because of this prosperity that the population of the hunter Empire has been increasing for two decades. Is it saturated now? In addition, with the drought that we don’t know when it will last, your country may be more anxious than our blue bay? ”

That’s what negotiations are all about.

After all, the two sides of the negotiations are not two separate people, but two huge countries.

It is basically impossible to hide what has happened in a country from other countries. From the beginning, the situation between the two sides will be put on the table. The only thing to compete is the ruling level and the degree of internal consultation between the two sides. Let’s see how much each other is willing to pay in order to continue their national stability.

Willie bureaucrats across the street clearly understood the meaning of this, so they were surprised that Ariel didn’t show up after pointing out her country’s problems.

“Then, viscount Garcia, your request of blue bay is really difficult for us to accept. We have sufficient evidence to prove that the territories we began to occupy at the beginning of last year belonged to our constellation Falcon a hundred years ago. ”

Ariel snorted, “it will still belong to us in a hundred years. Now you grab it back. Can we grab it again after a while because these lands belonged to us many years ago? ”

At this time, one of the opposite bureaucrats who looked like a military general immediately patted the table and shouted, “if you have the ability, come and grab it! I’ll be ready at the border when you come to blue bay! ”

The queen glanced at her courtier. After touching her eyes, the courtier sat down obediently and stopped talking.

Queen: “our request is actually very simple.”

Everyone turned their heads and focused on the queen.

“Sagittarius is a landlocked country. We are surrounded by all kinds of countries or mountains. We need to develop and have more power to break through. Blue Bay, if you want us to maintain peace with each other, I hope to get a direct trade route that can pass through your country without inspection and then reach an ice free port. ”

“As long as we can have such a trade route so that we can directly reach the sea and trade with more countries in the world, I can immediately stop the troops attacking you and return the land we ‘accidentally’ protect.”

Now the “long Princess” dak is inconvenient to speak, but such a request still makes his eyebrows frown after all.

Even if you don’t understand the international situation, the people on the side of the blue bay mission naturally become serious about the requirement that the opening of the hunter is a channel to the coastline.

“You want a passage to the sea that passes through our territory and does not accept the supervision of our country?”

Sweet wine and cheese could not help it. They squeezed their fists and smashed them on the table steadily, and said sternly.

Since the speaker is not the “long Princess”, the queen naturally does not need to respond at this time. The hunter bureaucrat opposite said at this time——

“You want us to put forward conditions, and that’s our request. Yes? Can’t you afford it? Or are you willing to go on like this? ”

“You!”

The sweet wine cheese bit his teeth and saw that he was about to rise up. The cassava on one side saw the opportunity quickly, stretched out his hand again and grabbed the long princess, pulled her back to her seat steadily and sat down.

On this side, after a little thought, Ariel smiled at the corners of her mouth and said slowly, “I see. Do you want a sea port? This is indeed a very reasonable request for your landlocked country. ”

After a short pause, Ariel continued, “we all have a lot of difficulties with each other. Do you want to enter the sea? This kind of thing can be settled through negotiation through trade. Now you are trying to threaten us by force. Blue Bay wants to seek an entrance to the sea? Ha ha. ”

She straightened her back, her eyes fell sharply on the queen over there, and said slowly——

“So you don’t want to fight with us, do you? In other words, even if the overall strength of your hunter is three times that of us, you forcibly captured our blue bay empire. But under such circumstances, it is also wishful thinking for you to safely use those ice free ports to improve your economic capacity. Because at that time, even if blue bay does not have the ability to confront you on the front battlefield, it can still prevent you from using those ice free ports safely. ”

“In other words, our problem still needs negotiation. Since both of us still need to return to the issue of negotiation, I think this aggressive attitude should be restrained by both of us? After all, it’s not good for both of us to continue fighting. ”

After such a few short exchanges, the hunter bureaucrat has clearly determined that the person who can really speak in the blue bay mission is the Viscount Garcia.

Now, they were a little surprised that the woman in front of them could be so calm and generous.

Somehow, this woman gave them a very familiar feeling… Although their personalities look very different, just standing here will bring them a great sense of oppression, but it does exist… People can’t see that it’s just a weak woman.

“… Viscount Garcia, if you are willing to open an ice free port channel to us, what price do you ask?”

The bureaucrat of the opposite constellation begins to test. Of course, Ariel is not arrogant enough to think she has completely suppressed the other party, but says after a slight pause——

“In my opinion, peace between the two sides should always be kept in the first place. First of all, the hunter should quickly withdraw from the territory of the blue bay Empire, return China’s land, release China’s people and compensate China for the losses caused by the confrontation. Of course, these are not the contents of the transaction, but the preconditions that both of us must have in order to further talk. In other words, if you don’t promise these things in advance, there’s nothing to talk about next. ”

After a little thought, the Willie bureaucrat opposite said, “Viscount Garcia, are you really confident in yourself? If you can regain those territories on the battlefield, is it necessary to talk to me about these contents at this negotiating table? ”

To tell you the truth, it really poked the lung tube of the blue bay empire.

Ariel must admit that the other party’s bureaucrats are right. If LANWAN really has the strength to recapture those sites, is it necessary for their envoys to spend so much time here with the other party?

How is it possible to fantasize about getting something back through negotiation when you can’t get it back on the battlefield?

Ariel breathed out a little when she understood this layer. She turned her head and her eyes fell on the sweet wine cheese face over there.

The real long princess, originally ignorant of politics, has even been acting in the name of being just a nominal mission.

However, after this period of time, especially now that she really realized that this negotiation involved the vital interests of her royal family, the long princess is also growing rapidly.

Although her performance still seemed a little irritable, the expression on her face was undoubtedly worried about the loss of her royal family’s interests.

Seeing this, Ariel’s heart is really mixed with five flavors.

On the one hand, she was glad that the girl was finally willing to think about the future of her country.

On the other hand, because her thinking is still against herself from the standpoint of “royal family”, she seems a little uncomfortable.

“Oh, is the so-called battlefield of the Orion bureaucrat just a little gain and loss of the territory in a year? That really disappoints me. I really think highly of your strategic vision. ”

After confirming her state of mind, Ariel looked back and continued to look at Willie and other hunter bureaucrats opposite with a contemptuous attitude, sneering.

Willie didn’t show much reaction, but looked at Ariel silently.

Ariel said slowly, “it’s only a year. Even a country ten times weaker than blue bay can attack blue bay with all its strength. It’s estimated that it can do it? However, this is only short-term. ”

“Most of the areas bordering our two territories are mountainous areas that are not suitable for human gathering. Those places lack resources, and some places even lack water sources. After you grab it, it won’t bring you much economic benefits. ”

“On the contrary, we blue bay can use your front to lengthen and slowly trap you. As long as it takes a long time, you can’t keep such a place all the time. Either attack those important cities in China that are more convenient for war mobilization and material transportation, or we can only return to your territory. ”

“So, are we worried about Blue Bay? No, we’re not in a hurry. All we need is a little concentration. ”

As a country, of course, there will be all kinds of weaknesses.

Since it is a weakness, it will certainly be found and attacked.

Ariel now just points out the macro strategic differences between the two sides, but this guess is only a guess. After all, no one can guarantee that the other party will not make any adjustments to their weaknesses, right?

The hunter bureaucrats across the street, look at me, I’ll look at you. But there was no response to Ariel’s statement from their expression. I wonder if they are flustered because they are right? Or a calm attitude of “it’s true that the opposite side will say so. Fortunately, we have been prepared long ago”?

So now, although Ariel’s face was full of smiles, her panic was beyond measure. Her hand under the table has been tightly clenched into a fist, and the other hand is forcefully pinching her thigh muscles to prevent herself from trembling because of fear and fear and being seen through by the other party early.

“Well, it seems that you know exactly where the situation is. But it doesn’t matter, we know. ”

Willie said slowly, tidying up the papers in front of him——

“It can be seen that the blue bay Empire seems to have considered the result of losing both sides. We certainly hope to try our best to avoid such an outcome, which is the purpose of our agreement to negotiate this time. ”

Hearing the other party’s words, she felt a little soft and didn’t seem to want to continue to escalate the conflict. Ariel really breathed a long sigh of relief in the dark.

At the moment, she also nodded, and the smile on her face was not as strange and nervous as before. Instead, she smiled faintly and said, “in that case, of course we can continue the negotiation. The desire for peace always exists between us. ”

Since the excitement of both sides eased a little, the people on the platform are now a little relaxed.

At this time, the snowflakes in the sky did not know when they had stopped, but the wind began to blow at night. Fortunately, blankets were prepared on the seats in advance, and people wrapped up blankets one after another, and then continued.

Ariel said, “it’s unrealistic to give you an ice free port and open a trade channel completely under your control. We might as well discuss a more realistic plan. ”

After a pause, Ariel continued——

“The reason why you want an ice free port is that your GDP has been surplus. If you rely solely on land transportation, it can only be transported to several surrounding countries, and the profits can not go up. Therefore, you want to spread trade to more places through the sea port of our blue bay empire.”

“Well, if we can’t give you an ice free port, we blue bay can consider fully reducing the tariffs on goods imported from your Falcon Empire.”

At this time, another hunter bureaucrat across the street snorted and said, “at the beginning of last year, we increased tariffs, and now we have to reduce tariffs to reflect your ‘sincerity’? You also said that our return of territory is the premise of negotiations. Why don’t you say that your exemption from all unreasonable tariffs is the premise of our negotiations? ”

When the bureaucrat finished, Willie reached out and pretended to stop his colleagues. He looked at Ariel and said slowly, “please forgive my colleagues for their ‘bad words’. So… What do you think about it? ”

Tariff.

This issue can be said to be the top priority of the mission.

Before coming to the hunter Empire, Ariel certainly learned about the tariff policy of the blue bay empire. Indeed, at the beginning of last year, the Regent who is now the emperor announced many decrees on tariffs at one go.

Why?

Of course it’s money!

The economic situation of the blue bay empire can be seen from the actions of accelerating the collection of taxes, collecting materials, abolishing guilds, developing element machines and so on in recent years. The current blue bay emperor is well aware of the embarrassment of the Empire’s capital income.

If you want this empire to continue, the whole Empire must find a way to earn a lot of money! Otherwise, with the continuous deficit of finance, I believe that the turning point of adding up a little will come soon.

Therefore, the emperor menglang announced many laws to make money when he was still the Regent. The deepest influence on Ariel is the policy of destroying the adventurer guild and completely taking over local affairs by the local army, which has always been on the lips of the emperor.

This situation is good and bad for Ariel.

Because of the tight financial situation, Ariel was able to see that the emperor could not wait to encourage the development of the element machine project, and did not hesitate to offend the Vatican organization and the magician Association in the Empire. He even thought of cutting off the financial allocations of these two huge organizations. In terms of supporting the element machine, Ariel undoubtedly supports the emperor menglang.

However, due to financial constraints, many of the emperor’s policies will also affect the guild’s income and even raise tariffs, which indirectly leads to the need to spend more money and pay more taxes to buy the excellent weapons made by the hunter Empire if you want to buy the best weapons or armor. In this respect, Ariel can hardly stand on the side of the fierce waves.

Similarly, for the tariff proposed by the hunter, tariff reduction and exemption can naturally make the trade between the two sides more frequent, but there is a problem in front of the blue bay emperor.

That is, for the blue bay Empire, each territory in China was actually distributed to each aristocratic Lord.

If the trade is more frequent, it must be the lords who are more willing to trade with Hunter. Although some of the funds obtained by their exchanges can also be obtained from the tax situation, the local aristocratic Lords have thousands of ways to avoid taxes.

In this case, it is really unlikely that the emperor menglang will be exempted from the tariff at one go

“Hoo…”

Ariel took a deep breath and said slowly——

“I believe our royal highness is sure to be willing to persuade her elder brother, that is, our distinguished Blue Bay emperor, our friendly contacts with the hunting Empire empire. It’s not impossible to reduce tariffs, but it’s obvious that we need to have some more in-depth exchanges between our two sides. “
