Global Games: Start with 10 Billion Psionic Coins

   Chapter 722 Ransom Agreement

   But today is to negotiate the redemption of the captives, so we cannot waste too much time on this issue.

   After the big deal, he mixes poison in the worm juice and sends it out to see if the Blue Stars dare to eat or not!

  Lanqi put this question aside for a while, and said solemnly: "Your Excellency Su Yu, let's get down to business.

  We have a total of 18,624 soldiers in your hands. What price do you need us to pay to let them go? "

   In the past few months, the Blue Stars have captured a total of 18,000 Skrull troops.

The essence of the    Skrull Army is actually different from that of the Bluestar Army.

The   Blue Star Army is basically young people who join the army voluntarily, and then are promoted to senior officers in the army through their own abilities and experience, completely out of touch with the lives of ordinary people.

   Officers do not understand the lives of ordinary people, and ordinary people do not know who high-ranking officers are.

   But it's totally different on Skrull.

   The senior officers in the Skrull unit are all high-ranking powerhouses above the fifth rank.

   These high-level powerhouses have a great reputation and influence on the Skrull Star itself. Many of them are well-known bigwigs and have deep ties with the people, and the people know them.

  Because of this, the Skrulls must redeem the soldiers and officers captured by the enemy, otherwise it is easy to intensify domestic dissatisfaction.

  Su Yu is very clear about this, so he looked at Lankey and Cole opposite, and said calmly: "Speaking of the ransom, why don't we calculate it according to the price of the [mercenary camp]?"

   "[Mercenary camp]?" Lankey and Cole looked at each other.

   "That's right." Su Yu nodded and said, "According to the price of the [mercenary camp], the redemption price of the 4th-level powerhouse is 0.5 tons of gold, and the price of the fifth-level powerhouse is 5 tons of gold.

   And so on, the sixth-order strong is 50 tons of gold, and the seventh-order strong is 500 tons of gold. What do you think? "

   "..." Lankey and Cole took a deep breath at the same time, a little surprised.

  How dare Su Yu set such a high price for the ransom? Crazy about money?

   At present, the total number of troops that Skrull was captured by Blue Star was 18,624, including 1 legendary powerhouse of Tier 7, 16 members of Tier 6 Sanctuary, and 132 powerhouses of Tier 5.

   If so, they would have to pay at least 2800 tons of gold! Equivalent to one fifth of their total government stockpile!

   And these gold can be quickly transformed into the combat power of Blue Star, they absolutely cannot accept it.

   "Your Excellency Su Yu, the ransom is not calculated like this." Lan Qi shook his head with a dark face:

   "According to the average ransom price of our Scrooge star, the ransom of a fifth-order powerhouse is about 50 million Lieyang coins, which is a little more than 0.2 tons of gold. The price you set for 5 tons is simply unacceptable."

   "0.2 ton?" Su Yu raised his arms and sneered: "0.2 ton is too little! Is it worthy of our food and drink for the captives? And the situation is completely different now."

  Su Yu paused when he said this, and then continued: "Now your planet and our planet are in a life-and-death battle, which is completely different from your original ransom model.

   Think about it for yourself, if I let you redeem at the price of 0.2 tons of gold for each fifth-order powerhouse, I can only get about 100 tons of gold in the end.

   With these 100 tons of gold, we can only exchange 20 Tier 5 mercenaries, and the strength improvement is very limited.

   And you have redeemed these prisoners, you will get 1 legendary powerhouse of the seventh order, 16 people of the sixth-order sanctuary, 132 people of the fifth-order powerhouse, and an elite force of 18,000 people!

   In this way, aren’t we at a loss? Why do we do this business? Everyone in the live broadcast room, are you right? "

   Hearing Su Yu's words, the live broadcast room immediately began a dense screen-swiping mode:

   "Yes, it's too bad to change."

   "I'd rather kill these captives than give the Skrulls so cheap!"

   "Only a fool would be willing to change!"

   "I think the idea of ​​'a fifth-order powerhouse for 5 tons of gold' that Mr. Ke first mentioned is feasible."

   "I also think it's feasible. In this way, both sides will improve their strength at the same time, and neither will get the light of the other."

  Su Yu also translated these barrages into Skrull and showed them to Lankey and Cole on the opposite side to let them know the turbulent public opinion of Blue Star.

  …

  Lanci's face is also sullen now, feeling that things are a little tricky.

   Indeed, their redemption of captives now is not the same as when they were on Skrull.

   Thinking from another perspective, how could he be Su Yu? He wouldn't do it if he sold tier 5 prisoners at the price of 0.2 tons of gold, because this is undoubtedly an enemy!

   But the price given by Su Yu was too high, which exceeded the bottom line given by His Majesty the Emperor.

   So Lan Qi continued: "Your Excellency Su Yu, our Skrull Star redeemed prisoners basically at this price. If you don't believe me, you can ask your 'friend' on Skrull Star."

   Hearing Lan Qi's words, Su Yu smiled.

   He took out a chaise longue from the necklace and lay down, as if preparing for a long negotiation.

Not only that, he also took out a bottle of orange juice and took a slow sip before saying, "I'll tell you again, the situation is different now, now we're fighting for life and death, we won't do this to hurt ourselves people's business."

   "That's it." Lan Qi thought about it and made a compromise: "I double the amount of the ransom, 0.4 tons of gold for a Tier 5 powerhouse, how about it?"

  Su Yu immediately shook his head: "It still won't work, we still suffer too much.

   But since you have shown sincerity, I must show sincerity equally. Well, I will reduce the price of the ransom by 10%, and exchange 4.5 tons of gold for a Tier 5 powerhouse, so you can always accept it, right? "

   "I raised the ransom price by 100%, and you only lowered the price by 10%, which is too insincere!"

   "Aren't you talking nonsense! You only increased your price by 100% to increase a total of 0.2 tons of gold, and if I lowered the price by 10%, it decreased by 0.5 tons of gold. Who is not sincere?"

   "But you're a lion with a big mouth! It's natural to drop a lot, right?"

  …

   In this way, Su Yu and Lan Qi started a fierce bargain.

   But fortunately, both parties have the will to reach a deal, they will try their best to restrain their emotions to prevent the negotiation from breaking down, and try to negotiate results.

   Negotiations lasted for more than two hours.

  …

   In the past two hours, the two sides not only negotiated with lip service, but also sought a lot of "off-site assistance".

  Lanqi called His Majesty the Emperor four times in a row to report the timely situation of the negotiations and asked His Majesty's opinion.

  Su Yu also changed his negotiation strategy according to some reasonable suggestions on the barrage.

   Speaker Hu Jing, Political Commissar Zhang and other senior officials of the coalition government are watching the live broadcast, and they will also edit some special barrages to remind Su Yu.

   After two hours of negotiation and mutual compromise, at 2:00 pm, the two sides finally reached an agreement to discuss a result acceptable to both parties.

  Lanqi reported this result to the emperor.

After    was agreed, the two parties formally signed the ransom agreement at the spring of Mount Fuji.
