Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 500 Typed agreement (3)

Cheers to friendship, cheers to health, for... nothing, just for appetite, that is also a toast, everyone here is a drinker, facing this kind of rare wine Even if there is no excuse, you have to find a way to drink it once. Now that you have a reason, how can you not take the opportunity to have a good time? So, before the business is discussed, several altars of fine wine are already seen. In the end, the degree of goodwill between each other has also increased dramatically under this cup of cups and cups. Although language communication is still a lot of trouble, it is not a problem for everyone in the banquet. It's not a big deal, after all, both parties have an urgent need to have a good relationship with each other.

"Treasurer Wang, I'm here at the order of the governor. I have a few things to discuss with you. I don't know what shopkeeper Wang thinks?"

The wine was very refreshing, but Mua Weiya Aben didn't dare to forget the business because of it. After staying for a few rounds, seeing that the atmosphere between the two parties was getting better, he immediately tried to say something with a smile.

"It's easy to say, easy to say, sir, please give me instructions if you have something to do, and I'll just go and do it after consideration."

After listening to Wang Haiyao's translation, Wang Haibin immediately exchanged glances with the silent Lin Hu, and replied vaguely.

"Okay, refreshing, well, it's like this, there was a little bit of friction between you and me due to a misunderstanding earlier, which caused a little inconvenience to you, the governor specially asked me to come here to convey his apology, please also ask Wang Don't mind the shopkeeper."

Mua Via Aben obviously has a deep understanding of the way of negotiation, and he used the art of words when he came up. He downplayed the previous life-and-death battle as a small friction, and then used the name of the governor to oppress Wang Haibin. It seems to be apologizing, but in fact it is no different from coercion.

"My lord is serious. I really don't dare to accept the apology from my lord governor. Hehe, to tell you the truth, if there are a few more small frictions like this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life, so I dare to take it seriously. Is it a misunderstanding, it doesn't matter, we have already decided to return here, this Alexandria, the old man will never dare to come again."

Wang Haibin is not a vegetarian, so how could he be fooled so easily by Mua Via Aben, so he played hard to get him, pretending that he was going to leave.

"Treasurer Wang, that's not what you said. This, ah, this is indeed a misunderstanding. The commander of the navy, Tali, is a villain. It’s all about cutting off this cancerous tumor, this time he refused to listen to my official’s dissuasion and forcibly went to war, that’s entirely his personal decision, the governor didn’t know about it beforehand, please forgive me about this.”

As soon as he heard that Wang Haibin wanted to leave, Mu'a Via Aben immediately blushed, not to mention that Yezid ibn Abu had given the order to die, but just thinking of the thirty or so giant ships Mua Via Aben could not just sit and watch the Datang Fleet leave due to the benefits of taxation and taps brought by the goods he carried. When he heard Wang Haiyao's translation, he immediately panicked and was in a hurry Explained out of words.

"Oh? That's the case, um, it's just that now that you and I have started a fight, and we have both suffered some injuries. Even if we don't mind it, if something bad happens again, I have to guard against it. These goods They are all bestsellers, and they are sold everywhere, so it’s better to go to other places if you are old.”

Wang Haibin is a man who has matured from age to age. Seeing that Mu'a Via Aben was eager to keep his side, he would not let go of such a great opportunity to play against the other side. There is no room for negotiation, but it shows that he still wants to leave "intentionally".

"Treasurer Wang, please rest assured. My lord governor has said that this misunderstanding was on our side. As a show of sincerity, I can waive half of your entry fee. In addition, I can assure you that I will never do it again." There is a second misunderstanding, as long as you abide by the commandments of the Koran in our country, no one is allowed to attack your people, this official can swear in the name of Allah!"

Mua Via Aben was not stupid, although he vaguely guessed Wang Haibin's strategy of playing hard to get, but at this moment the initiative was not in his hands, and he couldn't let the Datang Fleet go anyway, he could only swear in a low voice.

"Well, that's interesting, but I don't know what the Governor-General wants us to do, so please ask the Governor-General to express it clearly."

Wang Haibin didn't want to leave here, because it was not only related to the interests of going to sea this time, but also concerned about the establishment of a stronghold in Alexandria and the stability of countless transactions in the future, so he would not speak too harshly. This smoothly hinted at the meaning of staying, but he didn't forget to continue to set the other party's bottom.

"Okay, shopkeeper Wang is straightforward, so I'll just say it straight. The first point is that both parties have put an end to this little friction, and don't care about each other. In addition, all our captured personnel should be released by you. As for the villain in the tower, if you want to fight or kill, please feel free to do so, I wonder if Shopkeeper Wang agrees with this?"

As long as there is something to talk about, Mua Via Aben doesn't worry about it. He has experienced a lot in negotiating with people over the years, but he doesn't care about Wang Haibin's set-up, which opens up the possibility of formal negotiations Shelves, the first to propose the first clause.

"It's serious, it's serious, the commander of your country's naval division is the pillar of your country, how dare the old man do it indiscriminately, in a word, just expose this matter, and we will return all the captured personnel together. In order to show sincerity, this old man immediately sent someone to do it!"

Wang Haibin has served in the army, he is more or less a middle-level military general, he knows that internal strife will inevitably happen in any dynasty, so how could he get involved in it without knowing the details? Ah Ben's words meant killing people with a knife, so he wouldn't fall for it. As for the prisoners of war, Wang Haibin didn't care at all. It's useless to keep them, and they have to waste money. The other party simply gave a clear answer generously.

"Well, that's it for the first point. As for the second point, my governor said that the city of Alexandria is a hub to welcome merchants from all over the world. You are welcome, as long as you abide by our regulations, everything is free. Of course, if you are willing to place the goods on our agency, you are welcome. Everything can be settled according to the market price. I don't know what you want. how?"

Hearing that Wang Haibin wanted to release the Tali together, Mua Via Aben's eyes quickly passed a trace of regret, but more of it was excitement, not for anything else, just because according to the Arab custom, The release of captured officers and soldiers requires a large ransom. When he came, Yazid ibn Abu had already promised him that he would redeem the captured soldiers at a high price. Now that this large sum of money has been saved, at least it has done a lot of work, and Mua Via Aben is not dissatisfied at all, so he made the second clause while the iron was hot.

"I am grateful for the kindness of the governor, but I have a rule passed down from my ancestors, that is, I am not allowed to associate with the government. I am afraid that it is not appropriate to make an inventory of your company. Please forgive this old man for not being able to obey orders. Of course, this old man Once people come to your country, they should follow your laws and regulations in everything they do, and if they can build a semicolon, they will be even more grateful."

Wang Haibin came here not only to sell goods, but also to collect the details of the Dashi Empire, so it is impossible to agree with the so-called inventory.

"That's it, no matter, everything will be done according to what the shopkeeper Wang said. As for the third item, well, my lord governor is very interested in your warships. I don't know if you can give up. For the purchase, the price can be determined by your side, and this one will be fulfilled by Shopkeeper Wang."

Mua Via Aben originally wanted to eat the goods of the Datang Fleet in one bite and make a fortune from it, but when Wang Haibin said it so decisively, he could only scare the other party away, so he could only He had no choice but to give up, and then issued a third clause, which actually hit the idea on the Datang battleship.

"I'm afraid it's hard to follow orders. The old man relies on the cover of these warships to sail the sea. If not, I'm afraid that with such a small misunderstanding today, the old man will lose his life. Why are you talking about a lot of money? It's absolutely impossible, please forgive me!"

Are you kidding me, how many secrets are there on this battleship? The various weapons and martial arts are not the brainchild of the "Ming Di" Research Institute, but the sharpest sea king of this era. It is impossible to see it, and even if Wang Haibin had the courage, he would not dare to do so. After hearing Wang Haiyao's translation, Wang Haibin's head immediately shook like a rattle, and he refused politely. Mua Weah Aben's proposal.

"Treasurer Wang, please fulfill it. My lord governor has said that as long as you agree to this matter, everything can be discussed. No matter how much it costs, my lord governor will not refuse."

As soon as Mua Via Aben heard Wang Haibin's answer, he immediately became anxious. It was nothing else. The first two clauses were insignificant, but what he really cared about was the third clause. Before, Yazid ibn Abu had given serious advice. If the task cannot be completed, let alone the throne of the Director of the Harbor Affairs Department, even the guy who eats may be thrown away. .

"Sorry, this is not for discussion. If the Master Manager insists, then we will stop discussing everything. No one will be kept here. I can go elsewhere later and see off the guests!"

No matter how high the conditions offered by Mua Via Aben, it is impossible for Wang Haibin to agree to the sale of the ship. Seeing that the other party is entangled in this matter, Wang Haibin's face immediately turned ugly, and he did not tolerate it. The eviction order was issued emotionally, and several sailors who were accompanying in the cabin strode forward, gesturing to ask Mua Via Aben to disembark and leave immediately, and the atmosphere in the cabin was suppressed instantly.
