Siheyuan: Happy life of the son-in-law of a founding general

Sitting on the plane, after repeated thinking, Wang Zhian's eyes were full of anticipation and confidence for the upcoming challenges.

Wang Zhian knew very well that this was not a simple negotiation, but a stage for Daxia to demonstrate its willingness for peace and its firm bottom line, and every step had to be taken with precision.

Being tough is a prerequisite and a necessity, and it will bring about the best negotiation results.

The country of Tapu is peaceful and ancient, as if it has deliberately stayed away from the hustle and bustle and struggles of the world.

When Secretary of State Madar entered the room, he wore a confident smile, but the fine lines at the corners of his eyes seemed to reveal a hint of trepidation in his heart. As they were all old acquaintances, they walked into the negotiation room without much greetings and went straight to the point.

Wang Zhian spoke first and said, "Dear Mr. Madar, it's a pleasure to meet you again."

Madar, who was smiling, suddenly stopped talking. I am not happy to see you. You are a warmonger. And you are a warmonger who can win the war.

Wang Zhian continued, "First of all, I want to reiterate that Daxia has always pursued peace and development. This conflict is not what we want. We hope that through this negotiation, we can find a solution acceptable to both sides and contribute to the stability and prosperity of the region."

Madar nodded slightly and responded: "Mr. Wang, I agree with your point of view. Peace is the common desire of all countries. The Eagle Sauce also does not want the conflict to escalate. We are willing to discuss how to peacefully resolve the current problems, including the release of captured soldiers."

Although the atmosphere was tense, the necessary courtesy and professionalism were maintained. As the negotiations progressed, the two sides gradually moved on to discussing specific conditions, and each clause required repeated weighing and negotiation before being proposed or amended.

From time to time, the sound of flipping papers and low discussions could be heard in the negotiation room, and the occasional silence seemed particularly heavy.

Overall, everyone is adhering to basic diplomatic etiquette.

When talking about the most critical issue of hostage redemption, Wang Zhian tapped the table with a firm look in his eyes:

"Regarding the captured personnel, we in Daxia are willing to redeem them based on humanitarian considerations, provided that our rights and interests are not harmed. But this requires the Eagle Sauce side to guarantee that there will be no more provocative behavior and to make a clear commitment to avoid similar incidents in the future."

Upon hearing this, Madar frowned slightly, but finally agreed.

In fact, this is a basic moral principle. As for whether the Eagle Sauce will retaliate in the future, they can find other reasons.

Then there is the ransom issue. Wang Zhian mentioned that he needed 10,000 Eagle Sauce coins per prisoner.

Madar thought it was too expensive.

So Wang Zhian asked, "Mr. Madar, do you think your brave soldiers are only worth 10,000 yuan? Otherwise, I will make the news of our peace talks and the reasons for your refusal public, and release them unconditionally."

Mada was stunned. He knew that Wang Zhian was not a good man. He was such a bastard.

Of course, we have to argue that the ransom is a little bit expensive, and also talk about how much the ransom of the Mosa Kingdom was before.

Wang Zhian was stunned and said, "Mr. Madar, compare the value of your country's soldiers with that of Mosa. If you think it's possible, I only need 300 yuan, the same price as the soldiers of Mosa."

Madar wanted to slap himself. My mouth, how could it be so stupid.

Finally, the price was 6,000 Eagle Sauce coins. Wang Zhian seemed to feel very painful, and then he said, "Forget it, it's a loss. If you Eagle Sauces dare to come again, we will continue to capture them, and then the price will double."

Madar was upset. The army's combat effectiveness was not strong enough, and he was not strong enough in negotiations.

After discussing this, Madar added, “We can commit to reducing military activities in sensitive areas over the coming period and ensure transparency through third-party monitoring mechanisms.”

Wang Zhian thought about it and said, "That's fine. We in Daxia have always loved peace, and we never take the initiative to attack others."

This is a veiled attack.

Then Madar said, "So the Daxia Navy must exercise restraint. I hope the same applies to Tsukishima."

Wang Zhian finally realized that this was a language trap.

So he sat up straight, looked at Madar and said slowly, word by word, "This is not allowed."

"Because Tsukishima has always belonged to Daxia, we will and will recover Tsukishima in the near future."

Wang Zhian's words made a "bang" like a thunder. Not only the negotiators on the Eagle Sauce side were confused, but also the Daxia side.

The truth is, no one has ever said this publicly before.

However, other representatives of Daxia, thinking of Wang Zhian's identity and a series of sensational events he had recently done, knew that he must have received instructions from the top.

Or it can be said that Wang Zhian himself is a senior executive.

Madar seemed very angry, "Mr. Wang, are you threatening us, Eagle Sauce?"

Wang Zhian sneered at Madar and said, "Mr. Madar, I'm confused. What does it have to do with you, Eagle Sauce, that we, Daxia, have recovered our own territory? And you said I was threatening you. Aren't you, Eagle Sauce, threatening Daxia?"

Madar said immediately, "There are already people on Tsukishima. Eagle Sauce will definitely protect them. This is our bottom line and it must not be shaken."

“Then we’ll meet in the Tsukishima Sea.” After Wang Zhian finished speaking, he stood up and began to leave with the negotiating representatives.

Madar was so angry that he said, "Mr. Wang, you are so undiplomatic. How can you just leave after a few words? Or maybe you are not sincere at all."

Wang Zhian turned around, his eyes as sharp as a sword, piercing the tense atmosphere in the conference room. He slowly said: "Mr. Madar, diplomatic demeanor is based on mutual respect. When Eagle Sauce ignores Daxia's core interests and regards Tsukishima as a bargaining chip, do you think this is the greatest disrespect to Daxia?"

The lights in the conference room seemed to become particularly dazzling because of these words. The air seemed to freeze, and everyone's eyes shuttled back and forth between the two people, capturing every spark of this silent battle.

Madar's face turned pale. He suppressed his anger and tried to save the situation with a final effort:

"Mr. Wang, we don't disrespect Daxia's core interests, but the current situation on Yuedao is definitely not what you Daxia said. We all know this very well, so why not seek a solution that both sides can accept through further communication?"

Wang Zhian stopped walking, without looking back, and said calmly: "If the Eagle Sauce is really sincere, please prove it through actions and let Tsukishima take the initiative to negotiate with us. This will bring more win-win results."

"Mr. Madar, I think if you can't make the decision, find someone who can. Otherwise, we'll meet on the battlefield. I'll give you three days, because my time is precious. I'm also currently serving as the commander-in-chief of the Rope Island War, which is enough to show Daxia's sincerity."

As Wang Zhian and his group left, only the Eagle Sauce representatives were left in the conference room, staring at each other in bewilderment. Madar slammed the table hard and shouted angrily, "Madman, what a madman!"
