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

The Sakura Country's negotiating representative, Ichiro Matsumoto, frowned and felt uneasy after receiving an emergency notice from his own commander-in-chief.

He knew that this journey would not be easy.

Ichiro Matsumoto naturally knew that Eagle Sauce was negotiating with Daxia.

I just don't know the specific results of the negotiations.

As a result, Eagle Sauce actually asked me to participate in the negotiations between Daxia and Eagle Sauce.

This is a huge problem. If things go wrong, Sakura Country will suffer heavy losses.

Ichiro Matsumoto had to pack his luggage quickly, rehearsing in his mind the various possibilities and strategies he would face, while not forgetting to bring the fan that had been with him for many years.

Ichiro Matsumoto came to the negotiation site between Daxia and Yingjiang and saw the national flags of Daxia and Yingjiang. However, there was no flag of the Sakura Country.

Seeing this scene, Ichiro Matsumoto felt even worse.

"Welcome, Mr. Matsumoto. Because the negotiations between Eagle Sauce and Daxia involve Sakura Country, we called you here." Mai Di spoke first and explained the reason. But Ichiro Matsumoto and other negotiators from Sakura Country found that Mai Di did not say "please", but "call".

This is very arrogant.

In fact, the Eagle Sauce is not just arrogant to the Sakura Country. In fact, the Eagle Sauce is much stronger than the Sakura Country.

Ichiro Matsumoto bowed slightly to show his courtesy. "Thank you for your invitation. Although time is tight, I believe that communication and understanding are always the first step to solving problems."

His tone was calm, and he tried to be strong, like a 45-year-old kid.

As all parties took their seats, the real confrontation began quietly.

Wang Zhian immediately interrupted, "Mr. Matsumoto, we, Daxia and Yingjiang, have stationed troops in Yingying Country for negotiations, but we have not been able to reach a consensus, so we asked you to come here."

Hearing this, Ichiro Matsumoto got anxious. What the hell is going on?

He quickly waved his folding fan, his seemingly casual movements revealing deep thoughts. "Mr. Wang, I don't understand what you mean."

"It's very simple, Mr. Ichiro Matsumoto. Daxia and Eagle Sauce were negotiating about the issue of Daxia stationing troops in Sakura Country. Eagle Sauce objected, so I made the second best choice and asked Sakura Country to pay 10 billion yen in compensation. Mr. Mai Di said that he couldn't represent Sakura Country, so he asked you to come here."

After listening to this, Ichiro Matsumoto finally understood. There was a word "Mom" in his heart, but he didn't know whether he should say it or not.

This Daxia is so shameless, and this Eagle Sauce seems to be equally shameless.

Ichiro Matsumoto clearly felt that the Eagle Sauce was ready to compromise and let him pay.

However, I seem to have no way to object.

"Mr. Ichiro Matsumoto, Mr. Mai Di and I are more concerned about how to maintain regional stability and ensure the balance of interests among countries. After all, harmonious coexistence is the long-term solution. Therefore, we need your country of Sakura to pay us 10 billion in compensation."

“……” Ichiro Matsumoto.

Mai Di tapped the table lightly and explained. "Indeed, Mr. Wang is right. Some recent conflicts have forced us to re-examine our positions. So our two countries proposed to hold peace talks. In view of the complicated relationship between Daxia and Sakura Country, I think Mr. Wang's claim has some truth."

“……” Ichiro Matsumoto.

For the next few hours, the debate in the conference room was intense and tense. Matsumoto Ichiro, Wang Zhian, and Mai Di were in a heated exchange.

Ichiro Matsumoto is worthy of being a veteran diplomat. Every word and every action of his seems to be carefully calculated, aiming to find that subtle balance point.

But Wang Zhian used his strength to break all the barriers and mentioned that if the Sakura Country did not agree, he would fight back against the Sakura Country and would not be afraid of the Eagle Sauce's attack.

Mai Di had no choice but to say, "Mr. Wang, I don't think it's a good idea to start a war at random. People will die in war."

"However, you, the Eagle Sauce, took the initiative to wage war against us and launched a sneak attack, but we defeated you."

“…”Wheat field.

After a while, Mai Di said, "Mr. Wang, you can't underestimate the strength of the Eagle Sauce, and you can't insult us Eagle Sauce."

Wang Zhian took a look and said, "Mr. Mai Di, I think you are threatening Da Xia. Da Xia and its people have never been threatened by anything."

Watching Wang Zhian and Mai Di confronting each other, Ichiro Matsumoto realized that this negotiation was not a game between two countries, Daxia and Yingjiang, but a team-up to bully him.

It is obvious that one is playing the good guy and the other is playing the bad guy.

You must be cautious with every step you take.

"Fifty billion, Mr. Wang," Mai Di's voice trembled slightly. He tapped the table lightly with his fingers, as if he was calculating something, or perhaps looking for the last glimmer of room for maneuver.

"This is already the limit that Sakura Country can bear. You must understand that such compensation will have a profound impact on Sakura Country's economy and social stability."

Ichiro Matsumoto was even more annoyed. Mai Di even started bidding for himself.

This dead eagle is so chatty.

Wang Zhian nodded slightly, indicating that he understood the difficulties of the Sakura Country, but he did not respond immediately. Instead, he let the silence spread in the air and let the pressure accumulate naturally.

Then he said, "Mr. Mai Di, I understand the difficulties of Sakura Country, but this is not just a matter of money. It is a settlement of the past. Ten billion, not a penny less."

As Wang Zhian finished his words, the room fell silent again, with only the sound of the two people breathing one after another, like a bullfight.

Mai Di took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil. Finally, he nodded slowly, as if he had made some important decision.

"Eight billion. Eagle sauce thinks that the maximum compensation can be eight billion, but the payment method and timetable of this compensation need to be discussed in detail."

There was a sense of helplessness but determination in Mai Di's words.

Wang Zhian turned around and his eyes met Mai Di's again. There was more gentleness and understanding in his eyes. "I can consider this."

Then the two of them seemed to have forgotten the existence of Ichiro Matsumoto.

This was completely ignored.

Ichiro Matsumoto once again felt what it meant that a weak country has no diplomacy.

Over the next few hours, the negotiation table was covered with documents and charts, and the expert teams from both sides had in-depth discussions on the specific payment plan for compensation.

After countless debates and negotiations, a consensus was finally reached - Sakura Country will pay a total of 8 billion yuan in compensation to Daxia in installments over the next five years according to the established schedule and proportion.

When the final agreement was signed, there was a slight applause in the negotiation room.

Matsumoto Ichiro and others were livid. Damn, this Daxia and Yingjiang are really fucked up.

But now, he had no choice. After calling the commander-in-chief of Sakura Country, Ichiro Matsumoto had to sign his name in humiliation.

This agreement is known in history as the "Tripartite Agreement between the Kingdom of Thailand, the United States, the United States, and the United States."

After the agreement was signed, Mai Di asked Ichiro Matsumoto to return home immediately, as if he was getting rid of a annoying fly.

Subsequently, this agreement triggered enthusiastic responses in the three countries.
