Chapter 153: The Dust Settles (2)
As for the death war or something, it is estimated that only a fool would make such a choice.
The elves are a long-lived race, and a hundred or two hundred years is like a white horse passing by for them.
For short-lived races like humans, they can survive generations with their eyes closed.
For them, a hundred years is just the beginning of life, and there are still many colorful lives waiting for them, so they are reluctant to die.
However, surrender is also an art, they will not surrender directly casually, at least to fight for some favorable conditions for their own side, after several old elves discussed some specific details, they sent a messenger to meet Ning Yuan.
After learning that the other party wanted to surrender, Ning Yuan was overjoyed, after all, it was the best choice for the Condor Leader to end the war without blood.
However, as for the other party's request to conduct an interview immediately, Ning Yuan directly found an excuse to delay it, because he heard that it was several elven elders who were going to negotiate with him this time.
"Come on, go to Condor City and ask Elder Paul, and say that I have something important to ask for."
After sending away the other party's envoy, Ning Yuan immediately asked people to go back to Condor City to ask Paul Yufeng.
Because he knew that if he only relied on himself to negotiate, he would definitely be dizzy by the other party in the end, and then agreed to some conditions in a daze, after all, he suffered this kind of loss in Paul Yufeng.
As the saying goes, when facing those old elves who are six or seven hundred years old, or even thousands of years old, Ning Yuan is far inferior to the other party in terms of experience and conversation, so he will easily be led by the other party.
Paul Yufeng once took advantage of this aspect and took a lot of good things from Ning Yuan.
Although Ning Yuan came from modern times, after all, he had only lived for more than twenty years, even if he spent eighteen hours a day learning all kinds of knowledge, it was difficult to compare with those old goblins who had lived for six or seven hundred years, no way, this was the advantage of others.
Although the other party now intends to surrender, if it is really an unconditional surrender, they would have come directly to see Ning Yuan like those people in the Prairie Alliance, instead of proposing to negotiate like now.
If they only put forward some material conditions, Ning Yuan didn't care, but he knew that it was impossible to think about it with his toes, the other party definitely wanted to gain a certain degree of independence in status, or simply become a vassal tribe of the Condor Lord.
The Condor Leader is Ning Yuan's Yiyantang, and he will not allow any independent forces to appear in his territory, so if he talks about it, I'm afraid it will be easy to collapse.
And the best way to deal with the old goblin is to find the same difficult old goblin to deal with them, so Ning Yuan is in a hurry to let people rush back to ask Paul Yufeng.
As for the excuse for delay, it was easy to find, Ning Yuan directly excused himself to take this opportunity to finish the road from the grassland to the Storm Tribe, because they had been repairing it for many days, and it was about to be completely completed, and it was not a few days away.
In this way, after another four days, seeing that one more kilometer of the road was completely completed, Paul Yufeng finally arrived on a white horse.
"Three conditions, the first condition, I need a thousand fox workers to help me take care of the medicine field, you can't transfer them to other jobs if you have nothing to do.
The second condition is that I need to have the authority to transfer the rare resources of the territory, and Lao Tzu has seen enough of the dead face of Baishihai.
The third condition is that Alice will be an adult in five years, and at that time, I hope that the lord will marry Alice, so that it can be regarded as a reassuring pill for a few of us old fellows. ”
The old guy already knew what Ning Yuan asked him to do on the road, so he didn't talk nonsense, and directly put forward three conditions.
After listening to the conditions put forward by Paul, Ning Yuan said with some embarrassment: "I can promise you the first and third conditions, but can you change the second condition, after all, I have promised that all the materials in the territory will be uniformly deployed by Baishihai." ”
You Paul don't want to see that dead face in Shiraishi, do you think I want to see it?
Ning Yuan really wanted to say something like this, choking this old guy, but he was asking for help now, so in the end, he didn't dare to covet the pleasure of his tongue for a while.
Bai Shihai, as the chief manager of the Condor Domain, works hard every day to deal with all kinds of things in the territory, and because he is in power, he really carries all kinds of black pots for Ning Yuan.
Ning Yuan owed something to Bai Shihai, so every time he saw Bai Shihai, he was scared, for fear that the other party would grab his pigtails and start all kinds of admonitions.
As the owner of the Condor Leader, Ning Yuan can be said to be not afraid of heaven and earth, he is afraid of Bai Shihai alone, he is respectful, afraid and annoyed by Bai Shihai, no way, who called Bai Shihai the person he can't do without the most?
So when Ning Yuan heard the old guy mention Bai Shihai, he instinctively wanted to veto the second condition, he was really nagging and scared by Bai Shihai.
Ning Yuan didn't have any resistance to marrying Alice Yufeng, and gave him a beautiful daughter-in-law for nothing, so a fool wouldn't do it.
As for the reassuring pills that the old guy said, Ning Yuan more or less knew what they were worried about, but the old guy must be worried in vain, because Ning Yuan would definitely live longer than them, who called him a player.
"No, you must agree to all three conditions."
The old guy refused to give in at all, and in order to further convince Ning Yuan, he directly came up with a killer idea.
"Tell me what I mobilized those resources for, not for this territory of yours, I look like I'm seven hundred years old, and I still have a few years to live, I just want to leave a little more for future generations before I die, what's wrong with this?
Besides, which of those potions I developed didn't contribute to the territory for free, and I didn't want those resources to fill my pockets, why did that little bastard in Baishihai guard me like a thief,......。 ”
The more the old guy talked, the more excited he became, and in the end he almost roared next to Ning Yuan's ear, Ning Yuan was trained by the old guy like a grandson, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, after all, most of what the old guy said was things.
As for things like the old guy using the fruit of life to make wine and building a courtyard wall with obsidian, Ning Yuan would not mention it, after all, these are small sections, which are completely negligible.
"Okay, I promise you that when you are old, when you return to Condor City, I will inform Bai Shihai, then the negotiation with the other party will be entrusted to your old man, my bottom line is that they must surrender unconditionally, and the treatment cannot be special."
After being bombarded by the old guy, Ning Yuan immediately gave in.
No way, who let these old guys make a huge contribution to the development of the Condor Territory.
And don't look at them always love to be greedy and cheap, relying on the old and selling the old, in fact, they know how to be more proportional than others, they are just telling Ning Yuan in this special way: they don't have any ambitions, they only recognize Ning Yuan's rule.
The way they get along with Ning Yuan will neither embarrass Ning Yuan, nor will they make Ning Yuan hate them, it can be said that they have studied Ning Yuan thoroughly and thoroughly mastered his weakness, or how can it be said that they are old and refined.
After having Paul Yufeng, the next day, Ning Yuan asked people to notify the other party to start negotiations, and after meeting with the other party and saying hello, Ning Yuan used the excuse that there was an urgent military situation to deal with, and then gave Paul Yufeng full authority to negotiate the task.
Although he is also a member of the elf clan, old Paul knows who is really his own person, so when facing several old elves of the same clan, he does not have any mercy, and firmly guards the bottom limit that Ning Yuan explained to him.
A few old elves thought that they had surrendered to the tribe, and that they had more people, and that they should be allowed to continue to maintain the independence of the tribe.
After listening to this, Old Paul didn't have any nonsense, and directly took them to visit the wounded barracks, which was full of wounded elven rangers, all of whom were members of the Stormwind tribe.
Old Paul's meaning is obvious: you can't even protect your own people, and you still maintain the independence of the tribe.
The Condor leads the troops to be strong and strong, and it is already very good to be willing to give you the same treatment as everyone else, and you are not qualified to put forward other conditions at all, otherwise there will only be more and more elves of the Storm Tribe lying here.
In the face of Old Paul's naked ridicule, several old elves of the Storm Tribe were so angry that they stretched their faces, but Old Paul didn't say anything, and they didn't have a good seizure.
After going to the wounded barracks, the old elves were obviously not as strong as before, and they knew that there was no choice now, so they put an end to the meeting after proposing some innocuous conditions.
After returning to the Storm Tribe, the old elves called William over, and after explaining some specific matters to his face, they blasted him out, and then the few of them continued to live a life of ignorance.
William was also confused about the moodiness of several elders, but now the situation is very clear, that is, they are about to join the Condor Territory.
Although the old elves failed to win the independence of the tribe for the Stormwind tribe, in order not to anger them completely, old Paul still agreed to some innocuous conditions.
First, after the Storm Tribe joined the Condor Territory, Ning Yuan needed to give them two years to recuperate, and during these two years, unless there was an invasion by a foreign enemy, Ning Yuan was not allowed to requisition them to fight.
Second, when Ning Yuan used the elves of the Storm Tribe to go out to fight, he had to provide them with exactly the same equipment as the other elven rangers, otherwise, they had the right to refuse to fight.
Third, the Storm Forest is their ancestral land, and they hope to continue to live in the Storm Forest, and Ning Yuan can't force them to move to other places.
Fourth, Ning Yuan can't take any revenge on Kevin Storm and others, and he can't liquidate after the fact.
Fifth, Ning Yuan must treat the Potion Elf clan well, and cannot oppress and persecute them, the potion cultivated by the Potion Elf clan, Ning Yuan must give priority to the elves of the Storm Tribe, and the rest can be freely disposed of by him.
Sixth, Ning Yuan must marry Gianna Storm of the Storm Tribe.
