Above the Pirate King

Chapter 271 Negotiations
When Dewen came to the Luling tribe, the people of the Luling tribe had already lined up and waited for him.

Two rows of strong and fierce men stood aggressively on both sides of the village gate, and an empty road was opened between them.

Obviously, they're welcoming Devin!
"Only one person is allowed to enter!" One of the leading burly men shouted, while the other burly men also looked aggressively at Dewen and his group.

However, in the face of their aggressive aura, Devon was not afraid. He sneered, waved his hand and rejected Lloyd who was about to argue with them, and walked in fearlessly!
"Please come with me!" As soon as he entered, a big man made a gesture of please with a cold expression, and then left without turning his head.

Seeing this, Devon shrugged indifferently, and then followed.

Soon, under the guidance of the Luling tribe, they came to the small fenced courtyard in the middle of the tribe.

The door of the house to the left of the fenced yard was open.

Devin walked in.

At this time, it was already full of people!

Among them, the displeased chief Deanne and the kind-faced wizard Diabo sat on the table in the middle, while a group of tribal elders with unkind faces stood behind them.

"Please sit down!" Diabo made a gesture of invitation to the chair opposite.

"Hehe!" Devon smiled slightly, and without being polite, he pulled out the chair and sat on it.

"My lord, let's not talk about anything else, let's get straight to the point!" Diabo said without haste.

"Yes! You can directly offer the conditions. If you can, we will accept it. If you can't, then talk slowly!" Devon said calmly with a faint smile on his face.

"That's good!" A gleam flashed in Diabo's eyes, he nodded, and said in a deep voice, "First, we hope that the Kingdom of St. Martin will publicly announce in the newspaper that it will never invade our Luling tribe!"

"Second, pay us a batch of arms and supplies worth a billion and Bailey worth 100 billion. Note that the munitions and supplies worth a billion are the cost price. I know the exact amount. If If you fool me, our negotiation will fail!!"

"Third, pay us a sailing warship, the kind with a displacement of more than [-] tons!"

After finishing speaking, Diabo looked at De Wen who had been silent and didn't know what he was thinking, with a slight smile on his face!
She knew that the price was very high!

But asking for prices all over the sky, let's sit on the ground and bargain!
If Devon doesn't accept it, she won't care, but will continue to talk, but if Devon agrees, she will accept the money with peace of mind, and then take the clansman directly to sail away!

Anyway, with this money, they can live a good life again!
At that time, Devon will have nowhere to find them!

However, the cunning and cunning she also knew in her heart that it was impossible for Devin to agree to this condition, even if St. Martin could indeed offer such a condition, she would not agree to it!
The reason why she said these conditions is nothing more than raising the bottom line of German acceptance first. With this condition as a precedent, when comparing it with this condition in subsequent negotiations, as long as it is not too excessive, the degree of German acceptance is certain. Will improve a lot!
just
Devon doesn't play her cards right.

"Do you know the strength of our kingdom?" Devin asked abruptly.

As soon as Diabo confirmed it, a trace of horror flashed in his eyes, and then turned into calm again.

She said calmly, "What strength?"

really!

The keen German noticed the horror flashing in Diabo's eyes, he understood it in his heart, and there was a smile on his face!
When he heard Diabo's second condition just now, he realized the problem!

How could this tribe, whose ancestors had lived on the small island for generations and had never seen the outside world, charge such a high price?

Of course, it’s not that St. Martin’s price is unacceptable, but that the price does not meet the level of ordinary kingdoms outside. Ordinary kingdoms can only accept a compensation of 20 billion at most, and a maximum of 50 billion in compensation.
Only a powerful kingdom like St. Martin can easily come up with this price!

So, where did they get the specific news about the Kingdom of St. Martin!
who caught before combining them
German concluded that the news must have been obtained from these people!
However, ordinary soldiers only know that the kingdom is very powerful, how can they know how much money the kingdom has?
Only Reiner and Hoover know!
But here comes the question, Leiner and Hoover are 100% loyal to the king, how could they say it?
So German guessed that she must have used some method to ask for information from one of Reiner or Hoover before she made such a condition!

However, Devon thought about it, okay, since she knows the details of the Kingdom of St. Martin, then the next negotiation will be easy!
The ignorant are fearless!
If she doesn't know the details of St. Martin's Kingdom, it will be even more difficult to talk about!

Because of fearlessness!
People who don't know the details will not know what fear is, and they will also not know the heights of the sky and the earth. In this case, it is difficult to talk about it!

But it's good to know the details!

Contrary to the fearlessness of those who don’t know, if you know it, you will naturally have fear, and if you have some fear, you will naturally have a bottom in your heart, and you will not unknowingly put forward conditions that are completely impossible to accept!

In that way, it will be much more comfortable to talk about!
"Hehe, you must have learned about the strength of our kingdom from them, right?" Devon raised the corner of his mouth slightly, as if to say that I have seen through you.

A trace of horror flashed in Diabo's eyes again, but he calmed down quickly, pretending to be nonchalant, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about!"

"I don't know!?" Devon sneered, changed his voice, and said with a smile, "It's okay if you don't know! Negotiations continue, let's put forward some normal conditions!"

"Good!" Diabo took a deep breath.

She also knew in her heart that Devin must have guessed what news he had received from Reiner and others, and knew that she was afraid in her heart, so she was so confident!

"By the way, that deer won't be able to hold on for long, right?" Before Diabo said the new conditions, Devon smiled, pretending to be nonchalant, and asked again abruptly.

This time, the shock on Diabo's face could no longer be concealed!

She looked at Devin in horror, not understanding how he knew!
And seeing her expression, the smile on Devin's face was even stronger!

he knows!
He guessed it right!

When Devon got the Luling Tribe to negotiate with, he felt that there was a problem!
Why is the other party negotiating?

Under the premise that the other party has that terrifying deer and does not know the specific strength of the Kingdom of St. Martin, why is the other party negotiating?

Do you really love peace?
impossible!
Devon has always liked to try to figure out people from the darkest angle!
If it were him, when the other party wanted to destroy him, he would never negotiate with him just because he loves peace!

Cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots until there are no enemies left is his way!

Therefore, from this point of view, the other party must have some reason for them not to negotiate. If they do not negotiate, there may be greater danger!

As for why.
There is only one possibility and that is the deer, there is a problem!

As a relatively primitive tribe, apart from the problem with their hole card, the deer, Devon really couldn't think of anything that would make them have to talk about it!
And what happened to the deer?
In German, there is only one answer!
That's the deer dying!
Only when the deer is about to die will they be forced to talk, because if they don't talk about it, when the deer dies, they will have no way to stop them!

"What nonsense?"

"How did Master Lu Ling die?"

"Are you looking for death?"

Before Diabo and Dianne could speak, the tribal elders behind them began to scold German angrily.

However, Devin didn't care, and the smile on his face became even stronger!

He looked at the terrified Diabo, and said with a light smile, "It seems that I guessed right."

Hearing this, the expression on Diabo's face changed, and he stared viciously at the smiling German. After a while, the expression on his face gradually became calm.

After she reached out her hand to stop the big men behind her from making a sound, she took a deep breath and said slowly, "Now I only have two conditions!"

"Okay!" Devon said with a smile.

"First, the Kingdom of St. Martin accepts our tribe unconditionally, let us join you, and give us some support so that we can fully integrate into your kingdom!" Diabo said in a deep voice.

Devon looked at Diabo in surprise, he never expected that Diabo would have such courage!
"Why, didn't we win?"

"Master Diabo, why did you do this?"

"Lord Diabo!!!"

Before Dewen could answer, the tribal elders behind Diabo all exclaimed in surprise.

They feel that they are the winners, and they should get what the winners can get, but Diabo's actions make them feel as if they have lost!
"Get out!" Diabo snapped angrily.

"Master Diabo!"

"grown ups!"

"Master Wizard!"

The tribal elders said somewhat unwillingly.

"I said. Get out!" Diabo took a deep breath and angrily shouted again.

"Uh yes!" The big guys resisted their unwillingness, and finally nodded in humiliation!

It can be seen that Diabo has a very high reputation in this tribe. Even if she made such a condition, the big men would not dare to oppose her!

"I agreed to your condition just now!" After the big guys went out, Devin smiled and said.

Diabo nodded expressionlessly, which did not surprise her!
"What's the second condition?" Devin asked.

"The second condition." Diabo pondered for a moment.Turning to look at Di Anne, who was unhappy from the beginning, said, "That's marriage!"

Diabo knew that even if Dewen agreed verbally, once Lu Ling died, there would be no guarantee, and the other party could do whatever they wanted?
Therefore, from the very beginning, she decided to use the method of marriage obtained from Reiner's mouth to impose some constraints on both parties!
Once married, even if Lu Ling dies, people in St. Maarten will always look at Di Anni's face, right?

At that time, as long as the people of the Luling Tribe don't commit suicide, then nothing will happen!

But what she didn't expect was that Dewen guessed that Lu Ling was going to die!
This extinguished her desire to fight for better conditions for the Luling Tribe!

She immediately lowered her conditions to the minimum. Apart from retaining the necessary condition of marriage, there is only the first one, which is not specified. How much she gets depends entirely on the conditions of St. Martin's mood!
"Marriage!?" Devon looked at Diabo in surprise, then at Di Anne, thought for a while, and probably understood Diabo's thoughts!

"Yes!" Devon pondered, nodded, and did this for Arthur!
