The negotiations have been going on for more than a month so far. During this period, there have been tugs of war, disputes, quarrels, attacks and counterattacks, etc. Even many bystanders feel that there is a lot of swordplay and crisis. If you are not careful, you will suffer huge and irreparable losses.
But no matter how many crises there are, none of them can compare to the negotiations that are about to take place - Anyang is going to dig up the roots of the State of Jin.
The atmosphere was already tense before the negotiation even started. Sima Xuan looked like a statue, his face grim; the audience around him also stared with their eyes wide open, not daring to miss a single detail.
In the back, Xie Yuhua clenched his hands, his knuckles pale. As the president of the "Zizhu Conference Building", Xie Yuhua has also been under tremendous pressure these days. Countless things happen every day. During the negotiation, there are even Jindan-level officials who fainted. This is simply unimaginable. The Anyang negotiations set an example for many future negotiations, of course, a bad example.
Only the people from Anyang were still smiling. Although Xu Ren and the others were also very tired, they were in good spirits and full of confidence!
Seeing Xu Ren's confidence, Sima Xuan's heart sank. After more than a month of negotiations, Sima Xuan couldn't hold back several times and was forced to retreat by Xu Ren.
Perhaps, Anyang had been preparing for this negotiation for an unknown period of time, perhaps even before the war began.
Under the spotlight, Li Xian appeared again; but today there was one more person beside Li Xian—Ge Zhengfeng! After finishing his work, Ge Zhengfeng finally arrived in Anyang.
After introducing himself, Ge Zhengfeng joined the negotiation team, replacing the original person in the negotiation team, a business representative who was not needed in today's negotiations.
At the beginning of the negotiation, Xu Ren's first words stunned everyone: "Prime Minister Sima, I, Anyang, want to use a complete set of machine tools and related drawings in exchange for all the battle formations of Jin State. What do you think?"
Not asking, but exchanging?!
Anyang, which had been strong all along, actually became "soft" at the last moment
Even Sima Xuan couldn't believe it. Xu Ren didn't insist on being tough all the way to the end? Wasn't the contrast too big
Xu Ren saw Sima Xuan's wide eyes and suddenly smiled, "Prime Minister Sima, what's that expression on your face?"
Sima Xuan hesitated for a moment before hesitatingly saying, "A complete set of machine tools, are you willing to pay this?"
Not to mention Sima Xuan, even the representatives of the surrounding delegations widened their eyes.
"Of course!" Xu Ren said straightforwardly, "Our Anyang is centered on industry and commerce, and the core of industry and commerce is 'fairness, mutual benefit, and win-win'. Battlefields are the foundation of the Jin State; industry is the foundation of our Anyang. If we exchange with each other, we will each have two sets of foundations."
Sima Xuan was the prime minister after all, and he finally reacted, "The situation has changed, I want to return to the country to ask His Majesty."
But deep down in his heart, Sima Xuan snorted coldly: I would be surprised if I believed you.
"Okay." Xu Ren saw Li Xian nod and immediately agreed. Then, Xu Ren looked at Cheng Yunbo, "General Cheng, the young master finally woke up this morning and is no longer in danger. He is now in the Anyang Central Hospital. You can go and see him."
