- The person who came to discuss with Zhang Tie the terms negotiated by the wealthy families of the Ewendalla Islands was a famous figure in the Ewendalar Islands. One of them was Connor, the patriarch of the Leonard family on Aklay Island. One is Brightman, the patriarch of the Willis family on Gantiyadu Island. <
Both of them are over sixty years old. In this era, this age is the golden time of life for many men.
If Zhang Tie had not appeared, both Connor and Brightman would be the popular candidates for the speaker of the Ewendara Parliament being formed. Among them, Connor, the patriarch of the Leonard family, is the person behind the Ewendala Parliament. The most important driving force behind the scenes.
Seeing Connor, Zhang Tie took a serious look at this guy - gray-brown hair, a high, aquiline nose, deep-set eye sockets, and a strong chin. At first glance, he was not a simple person.
"Compared to Connor, Brightman, the patriarch of the Willis family on Gantiyadu Island, looks like a pampered engineer - wearing glasses, gentle and almost harmless.
Of course, Zhang Tie would not regard Brightman as a harmless engineer - the Willis family on Gantiyadu Island is still an ally of the Spencer family on the Ewendara Islands. The relationship between the two parties is, They are very close, and a family that is qualified to be an ally of the Spencer family is naturally not an ordinary family.
"Your Excellency Peter, these are the conditions negotiated by the families of our Ewenda Islands. If you can agree to this condition, then everything will be implemented accordingly. If you don't agree, then. In order to defend our respective families in Ewenda For the interests of the Archipelago, we will not hesitate to fight against the ice and snow wasteland, even if it costs a huge price!" Connor said. A document signed by all participants was placed in front of Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie opened the document politely, but in fact he already knew the contents of the document. As the landowner of Hailan Castle, Mrs. Olina was also the coordinator between herself and the various families in the Ewendala Islands. In the past two days, I have already had many contacts with representatives of various wealthy families who came to Hailan Castle. During such contacts. Mrs. Olina has already figured out the bottom line of these wealthy families in the Ewendaral Islands.
This document is the condition put forward by these wealthy families in the Evandala Islands, and their bottom line. If he disagrees, more than 70% of the wealthy families will evacuate the Evandala Islands, and then form the exiled parliament of Evandara in the western continent, constantly causing trouble for the ice and snow wasteland. Spend it with yourself. This is indeed very difficult.
He proposed to form a parliament in exile overseas to fight with himself. It was Connor, the patriarch of the Leonard family.
¡°Half of the North Wind Fleet and an equal number of the combined fleets of the Evendale Islands will have a desperate battle at sea to determine the future of the Evendale Islands. If the North Wind Fleet wins, then the Evendale Islands will The various families and islands in the Islands will surrender to me unconditionally, and if the United Fleet wins, then, in addition to St. Helena Island maintaining its status quo, the other islands in the Ewendara Archipelago will also maintain their status quo, and the Ice and Snow Wasteland will no longer seek annexation. The other parts of the Evandala Islands?" Zhang Tie glanced at the contents of the document. Then he raised his eyes and looked at Connor and Brightman, "This is your condition! I have to say. You are very thoughtful!" A smile appeared on Zhang Tie's face, and he didn't know whether it was approval or sarcasm.
This condition seems fair, but in fact it is somewhat unfair to the Beifeng Fleet, because to be fair, in terms of the fleet's combat experience and training level, the Beifeng Fleet, which has just been established for less than five years, is not as good as the long-term personnel in terms of personnel quality. There are indeed some gaps between the combined fleets of the Avundara Islands, which have called the sea their home for many months.
This condition was almost carefully prepared to consider the consequences of the failure of the Beifeng Fleet. First of all, if he failed, then the Ice and Snow Wasteland would only lose half of the Beifeng Fleet. Secondly, he also retained control over St. Genna Island. With such control, such a result can allow one to step down "honorably" without becoming angry and taking risks.
"This condition is a gambling battle between the fleets without the participation of knight-level masters of the Ice and Snow Wasteland and witnessed by all parties!" Connor said calmly, "The Ewendara Islands is a place that worships the sea. Here Everyone in the world has a different feeling for the sea, and will admire the brave men who can truly conquer the sea. The Ice and Snow Wasteland wants to annex the Evandara Islands, unless the Ice and Snow Wasteland shows the power to make us surrender on the sea, otherwise , we will not truly surrender, and the only result of trying to conquer the Ewendalla Islands by pure force is that the ice and snow wasteland will only be ruins! I think you should have heard of it!¡±
"What famous quote?"
"A knight can conquer the land, but not the sea!"
Zhang Tie smiled lightly. For ordinary knights, this is indeed the case. In this world, the area of ??the sea is much wider than the land. Even if the knight can fly, the knight's flying ability is greatly reduced on the sea, because compared to For most knights, the flight limit is more than a thousand kilometers. On the sea, this distance is really nothing. Contrary to the knights, the fleet has stronger maneuverability and concealment capabilities at sea, which is the lifeline of maritime traffic. and other ships sailing on the sea, have a greater deterrent effect, so this sentence spread in the Evandara Islands. This sentence not only illustrates part of the truth, but of course, it is also an island society that lacks knights. A kind of self-comfort. To myself, this sentence is a joke.
Facing the joke, Zhang Tie smiled. He didn't care and didn't want to argue. Zhang Tie just raised his eyes and glanced at Brightman, "Does the Willis family think so too?"
"This gambling battle is not only defending the interests of the Evenndala Islands, but more importantly, the dignity of the Evenndala Islands. If you can make the families of the Evenndala Islands behave in a dignified way, If I lower my head to you, then I think this will be a good outcome for everyone. Using force to the end will only hurt both sides!"
"Dignity?" Zhang Tie smiled, "Okay. I agree. I promise that neither myself nor the knights of the ice and snow wasteland will take action, and let the two fleets have a showdown in front of everyone. In the end, I will survive on the sea. The fleet that comes down is considered the winner! However, I also have a condition"
"What conditions?"
"I hope that the fleet of the Leonard family will fight against half of the Beifeng fleet. I know the size of the fleet of the Leonard family and the strength of the ships, and I can already participate in such a gambling battle!"
A bright light flashed in Connor's eyes, but he still kept a smile on his face, "I agree! There is just one more thing to remind you. In order to ensure the fairness of this gambling battle, each family in the Ewendalla Islands, We have jointly pledged a 200 million gold coin deposit for the gambling war and invited Jinpeng Bank as the guarantor for the performance of this gambling war contract!¡±
Hearing this, Zhang Tie just felt that these wealthy families in the Evandala Islands were really damn rich. In order to prevent themselves from cheating, these guys actually collected a deposit of 200 million gold coins in one fell swoop. Jinpeng Bank was also brought in as a performance guarantor. He is indeed scheming, and seems to feel that he is sure to win. If he wins the 200 million gold coins in the gambling guarantee, then, on the other hand, for the sake of the money, Jinpeng Bank will also supervise the Evandala Islands These wealthy families fulfill their bets.
Generally speaking. Jinpeng Bank will not get involved in this kind of war between territory and power. But if it's a contract, that's a different story.
It¡¯s just that such a contract can definitely be called a big gamble.
Zhang Tie deliberately thought for a moment with a solemn face, "No problem, I agree!"
Hearing these words, Connor couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth. Even Brightman looked at Zhang Tie with something else in his eyes. That thing was not contempt, but more like respect. Zhang Tie's age, wisdom and judgment let out a soft sigh.
After watching Connor and Brightman leave the room, a smile slowly appeared on Zhang Tie's face, and the smile slowly became brighter
If you want to play, then play with a bigger one!
Zhang Tie¡¯s eyes suddenly became extremely deep
¡¡
A side door in the room opened gently, and Mrs. Olena, wearing a black dress, walked over with a trace of worry on her face, swaying. She had been listening in the room next to her just now.
"This gambling battle is very dangerous!" Mrs. Olina said to Zhang Tie.
"Is this the room where you usually work in Hailan Castle? The environment of the room is good." Zhang Tie looked at the environment of the room and said after looking around.
Mrs. Olena¡¯s face turned red inexplicably, ¡°Aren¡¯t you worried at all?¡±
"Why should I worry?" Zhang Tie laughed and gently hugged Mrs. Olina, "Do you want to make money, make a lot of money?"
Mrs. Olina was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Zhang Tie meant, "What did you say?"
"Well, now I am the boss, and you are a beautiful secretary who wants to seduce me. You are a commercial spy. You want to hear such important business information from the boss. What do you think you will do?" Zhang Tie said seriously, Then he sat down on the chair.
Mrs. Olena¡¯s ears were a little red, and her eyes gradually became filled with a charming glow
¡¡
TwoAfter a while, Elder Turing and Elder Gulas stood in front of Zhang Tie, who looked proud of himself, with equally worried faces. Zhang Tie only said one sentence to the two elders, "I won't explain anything, I just tell them." You, from now on, you will try your best to get money, whether in the name of the Ice Bear Tribe or the Iron Bear Tribe, you can get as much money as you can, whether it is gold coins, loans, or mortgages. , financing, or gold delivery rights, no matter what, there is an opportunity to make a fortune in front of you. How much you can make depends on how much you can make. Within ten days, I guarantee that the money you make will at least double. "
The two elders were stunned
