Chapter 45 the King Does Not Understand Etiquette

The dwarf Pepin is also called the Dwarf King by other countries. But how to put it, he himself

seems very dissatisfied with this title. Lucifer's casual use of words caused Bismarck's dissatisfaction.

"Please pay attention to your words, King of Britain."

"Words? The Dwarf King? Don't everyone outside call him that way. I think this title is pretty good, at least much better than his self-proclaimed Warhammer King. After all, you see, if it's a Warhammer, it doesn't change. Is it a hammer?"

Lucifer's teasing remarks made Bismarck an urge to leave immediately. At the same time, his heart became more and more certain that Lucifer must have made second-hand preparations behind being so calm. Thinking of this, he could only continue to talk ironically.

"Can I understand that at this moment the King of Britain does not have the willingness to negotiate?" On the surface, he looked like he was about to leave, but he began to worry about this negotiation in his heart.

"What you are thinking about now should not be whether I am willing to negotiate, but can you show me the sincerity of the negotiation. Understand, the Prime Minister of France? At least 30,000 of the 70,000 people on the opposite side have been lost. The ability to fight. The remaining people are the prey on the tip of my sword. If you want to talk, first let me see your sincerity. The king can face the king, and he sent his own prime minister, Gawain, you Do you think they are sincere?" At the end of the words, Lucifer turned his head and asked the knight on the left.

Gawain's answer is only a simple word.

"No."

"..."

"Did you see it? Many of our soldiers sacrificed their lives because of the French invasion, Prime Minister Bismarck, what do you think should be paid for this blood?"

Having said that, Bismarck finally heard the hint to get into the topic. When it comes to repayment, it is naturally time to negotiate terms.

"France and Britain have concluded a truce contract for three years. At the same time, we will compensate Britain for the losses in this war, totaling 200,000 gold coins. In exchange, the British side allowed the 70,000 troops to return to their country, and at the same time needed to release all the prisoners. "Bismarck stated a condition that he was far from the bottom line, and he was ready to deal with the next bargain.

Unfortunately, what he saw was Lucifer's expression of lack of interest.

"Do you think this is sincerity?"

After asking the question, Bismarck immediately increased the bargaining chip.

"300,000. The truce contract is four years, the three holy swords will not be recovered, and Britain will not be held accountable for killing the two coaches of our army."

This time, Lucifer didn't have any more thoughts, or he didn't want to waste time with this guy. He directly offered his terms.

"The truce contract lasts for seven years and the gold coin is 700,000. The holy sword is originally our trophy. As for the coach, it goes without saying. At the same time, with the Rhine as the boundary, the two countries re-delineated the national border and set the British territory west of the Rhine. "

"you!"

"Don't you think your appetite is too big, King of Britain?" Bismarck's expression became serious.

This condition was within his expectation, but it was originally the reserve price he should have finally come up with. Now Lucifer said in a single mouth, he had the illusion that he suspected Lucifer could read mind.

Of course, Lucifer doesn't have the ability to read mind, but based on the current situation, it is not too difficult to guess the range of conditions that the opponent can accept.

"Do you think I'm too much? Compared to the fact that we united with Rome and contacted Macedonia to carve up a large number of France, this condition is not harsh anymore. Originally, this land was a British territory. It was only used about 15 years ago. You take it. I don't want to commit the mistake of the ancestor, and let you get a first base to cross the river for nothing."

"..."

"Since you can come, you should also be able to see the changes in the current situation. However, I don't know if you can see clearly. That is if the truce contract is to be fully improved, then both parties must be assured of each other. And this contract is the guarantee. I don't want my south side to be in danger of being beaten at any time."

Compared with the contract on paper, the real thing is the real guarantee of the truce. With this big river as a natural barrier, it will be a lot of peace of mind for both parties. France doesn't have to worry about being attacked by Britain, and Britain does the same.

"If you want to agree to this, the number of gold coins must be reduced." Bismarck changed a condition.

In this era, using money to buy land is normal manipulation, and reducing the compensation is equivalent to having the money exchanged for this piece of land. This is not unacceptable. Bismarck is also considering the financial problems in France.

"The gold coin is still 700,000, but I can agree to pay the bill in installments. That is, 400,000 will be paid first, and then 300,000 will be delivered in five years, and 60,000 will be paid annually. This way your financial pressure will be much less." Lucifer Seeing the right time, I switched to another payment method.

According to the information previously disclosed by Bismarck and the analysis of Semiramis intelligence, Lucifer believes that 400,000 is an acceptable number. If you want to talk about it, they may not want to give it.

Bismarck was silent for a long time before speaking.

"I need some time to think about it."

"No problem! I welcome you to think about it for a while at any time. Gawain, arrange a luxurious rest place for the prime minister. Both guards and meals must be treated according to the prime minister's specifications. Their prime minister can no longer let the prime minister say that we don't understand etiquette, understand?"

Lucifer's words at the moment made Gawain and Altria couldn't help laughing. It was obvious that the words with surveillance came out of Lucifer's mouth but it seemed to be protecting them.

"Yes, your majesty! I will do it now."

Gawain said, leaving here first. Following this, Lucifer also got up first, which meant that he had no idea of ​​continuing to talk. Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he turned around and said to Bismarck again.

"Your Excellency, personally, I welcome you to think about it for a while. But I may need to remind you that as long as the formal truce between us is not signed, it means that our two countries are still hostile country."

Bismarck was also about to get up, but was suddenly stunned when he heard this. After reacting, he stared at Lucifer calmly.

"Are you warning me? If you wait too long, the soldiers on the opposite side may be annihilated by you at any time?"

"No, it's a kind reminder. After all, we may soon become a truce, and I don't want to make things too rigid before then."

"thanks for your reminder."

After speaking, the two of them disappeared before each other's eyes.
