Let them offer their loyalty
Page 379
"Noelle, go ask me when the contract will be signed. It's no use dragging it on like this. Let those who are good at talking negotiate the things that can be negotiated."
Now that the decision has been made, there is nothing more to say.
Dorothy has a strong execution ability and she does it immediately once she makes a decision.
"Let all the families who are reluctant to give up their own land give up a piece of their own land. Since they don't want to contribute to the Misen family and only care about their own three plots of land, let them give all their three plots of land to District 25."
Dorothy knocked on the table and said calmly, "If they don't want to cut the meat now, then they don't have to cut it later. After all, in a few days, I won't be the one in charge anymore."
Noelle knew what Dorothy meant by this.
In a few days, the person in charge of the Federation will no longer be Dorothy, but Jonas, but before that, she still has the final say here.
"I understand, Dorothy. You should take a good rest these few days."
Noelle nodded and turned her wheelchair to the door, allowing the new secretary to push her out.
"Next, let me have a good rest..."
Dorothy closed her eyes and was about to rest when a voice suddenly sounded in her head.
She suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes revealing an immense struggle, and opened the phone to call Noel. In the end, she finally made the call.
"I will take charge of this civilized and weak body for the time being."
Her fingers moved slightly, and her eyes no longer revealed struggle, but an indifference that was not human.
"What's the matter, Dorothy?"
Noelle's doubtful voice came.
"Nothing. Remember to have Jonas come to the Federation in person on the day of signing the contract to show his sincerity."
Chapter 552 Negotiations Officially Begin
If there was one event that made the people of District 25 feel that the end of the war had almost no impact on them, it was the announcement in the past few days that the Federation was about to sign a peace treaty.
Although District 25 was hardly affected by the war, many people still paid attention to this matter, not to mention that after the incident was confirmed, almost the entire District 25 was reporting on it.
The big screens in shopping malls and the communications are filled with small advertisements that can be said to be squeezed in wherever there is space. If you are not a member, you cannot skip the advertisements. Even if you are a member, there will still be exclusive member advertisements for TV dramas and movies and the homepage of the TV drama APP.
Every TV station is broadcasting it all the time, and every household has marketing accounts promoting Jonas and District 25 in their news feeds. Even the radios in the slums that are worse than electronic garbage can carry it. If you are a little bit more sophisticated, you can just listen to other people chatting, and you will probably understand what is going on.
Some people may even open Notepad and ask others to read it aloud.
But fortunately, it's not so crazy that you can get free food and a small flag and hat with Jonas's portrait just by reading out Jonas's glorious deeds.
This was not Jonas's doing. In fact, every consortium in the twenty-five districts started to publicize directly after receiving the accurate information - the entire war was handled by the Alte Consortium, and except for those necessary things, their interests were hardly harmed.
To be honest, the best outcome they had anticipated was that the Alte Group would swallow up all of their assets, but not only did they not choose to do so at this critical juncture, they also remained almost unscathed, thank God.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Jonas can eat them anytime he wants, without having to choose a time or look at what has happened recently.
Jonas was asked to take over the war, so he had to do something on his side. Otherwise, although the chances were very small, what if he was liquidated directly after the war?
Sometimes what you do is not important, what is important is to let the people above you see what you have done.
You have to do a good job of superficial work, especially when you don't have any real ability.
Don't let your boss see you frantically cleaning the fish tank when your company is going public. Just do nothing. In an atmosphere where everyone is busy, wouldn't it be courting death if you continue to do nothing?
In short, at this time, just don't make any noise.
"Has the treaty been roughly drafted?"
In the office of the Alte Group, Jonas sat in an office chair, in front of him was Eiffel, who was processing various documents. As an indispensable member of the Alte Group, Jonas chose to hand the contract over to Eiffel.
You have to let go when it's time to let go.
Although the employees of the Alte Foundation have been watching Eiffel doing Jonas's work, fortunately no one thinks that Jonas is really just a hands-off boss.
Is it true that the boss just let it go and beat the Federation to its knees and surrender directly?
"First, there was the peace treaty, which required the Federation to surrender and hand over the commander of the sudden attack on District 25. Of course, there would definitely be some unlucky people who would be dragged in to make up the numbers."
Jonas looked at the treaties and felt relieved as he saw no major problems.
There was almost no mention of compensation in this contract, but both the people in District 25 and the Federation knew that this was just the beginning.
Let's formally cease fire first, and how to exploit the enemy's strength will be a matter for later. Both sides know clearly what to do.
But Jonas didn't go against the Federation for this reason.
For Jonas, who now knows a lot of things, the Federation has become less important, and perhaps it is more important to discuss cooperation with Dorothy.
"Have you read the daily schedule I sent you before?"
Eiffel seemed to have finished his work and looked at Jonas. "Around this afternoon, the contract will be signed in the wilderness near the military base in District 25. They said they will send someone of equal importance from the Federation. I hope we will pay attention to it as well."
"Of course, I take this very seriously. This is no small matter."
Jonas rubbed his brows and sighed: "I remember they asked me to go into the Federation to discuss it?"
"I rejected that person's application and said that if that's the case, District 25 can continue to fight the Federation. Otherwise, it's OK to let Dorothy come to the Federation to sign. Please forgive my actions."
Eiffel's expression was nonchalant, but his tone was not very kind: "That group of people did not realize that the status of District 25 and the Federation had been completely reversed. They were still using a tone of negotiation instead of a request. I think the Federation still thought they were still in the past."
It is indeed good to have the confidence to speak when you need to.
Eiffel's workload has skyrocketed in the past few days, and the Federation has come up with some incomprehensible things. Naturally, she has no good words to say: "In the end, our people directly asked Dorothy to come to the Alt Foundation to sign. They took a big step back and said they would sign at our defense line."
"Well done. Under an irresistible blade, as long as Dorothy still has reason, she will not do anything illogical. She will not destroy the Federation for her own dignity or her insignificant desire to win."
Under the gunpoint, all ordinary people can do is tremble in fear instead of resisting.
But even so, we can't take it lightly. We have to let Esni go with us. Well, we can also issue a commission to ask Beigong Ling to be a bodyguard.
Oh, it's okay to ask Beigong Ling to come out directly, but then you won't be able to experience the feeling of using credit points to make Beigong Ling swallow the words she wants to say silently.
"Ask Esni to spare some time and come with me this afternoon to issue a commission to Beigong Ling in the name of the company. I estimate that the fourth-generation tactical mechas in the military district are more than those of the exploited company dogs, but we still need to strengthen the protection."
"Well, Mr. Jonas, I will do as you say. Esni has already made preparations..."
Eiffel was silent for a while, then made a small joke: "The danger of signing the contract may be less than if you only bring Miss Beigong Ling to the negotiation and stand up Esni."
"No, this is much more terrifying than the Federation suddenly wanting to fight to the death with District 25. Eiffel, please arrange these things properly. I'll take a rest for a while."
Jonas felt relieved to leave these matters to Eiffel. He closed his eyes and wondered if there was anything missing.
Dorothy's sudden proposal to go to the Federation to sign a contract was definitely not a whim, but if Dorothy wanted to do something to herself, it would not be logical...
Time passed and it was already afternoon.
Chapter 553: The Signed Contract is for Revocation
On the military battlefield in the wilderness, although the war has ended on the surface, the atmosphere here is more tense than when the war with the Federation broke out.
Because today is the day to sign the contract. To be honest, just because the people in District 25 don't feel anything about the war doesn't mean that people outside don't feel anything either. After all, they are the ones who are going to die.
The favorable situation has been enough for the soldiers to thank Jonas for a while. After all, Jonas is a man who really takes things seriously. He does not use their flesh and blood to fill the gaps, but uses fourth-generation tactical mechas, regardless of the losses.
There are differences among capitalists! I am proud of my District 25! District 25 treats us like human beings!
Therefore, Jonas's reputation among the soldiers is actually a little higher than that among ordinary people.
After all, in their perception, Jonas saw District 25 being attacked by the Federation, and he contributed both money and manpower, and the frequency of the fourth-generation tactical mechas appearing was more frequent than the number of times they were injured.
As long as the technology is advanced, injuries and deaths can be avoided. The source of technology is Jonas' money, and these soldiers understand this.
So they will work harder than before.
"arrive?"
Jonas opened his eyes and saw Esni and Beigong Ling beside him. They looked at Jonas who was yawning and chose not to pay any attention to him.
Compared to Jonas's relaxation, Esni and Beigong Ling were more tense. After all, if they didn't want to be inexplicably cut in half or encounter any accidents, they had to cheer up.
Although I know this is the territory of District 25, I still have to be cautious.
After a while, Beigong Ling saw that there was nothing special and chose to answer Jonas' question.
"We'll be there in about two minutes. Don't be polite to them. Just sign and leave. If you want to argue, you can wait until we get back to District 25."
Beigong Ling's voice was serious. In her opinion, as the winner of the war, it might be considered a courtesy not to ask Dorothy to go to District 25 to sign the contract, let alone come here to sign the contract.
But at the same time, she also understood that compared with the practical significance, it was more important to show others that the war was over.
"I know. I am also keeping my guard up. But I have the strongest Valkyrie in District 25 and the head of an organization that once turned District 25 upside down by my side."
Jonas opened the small refrigerator under the seat and skillfully took out a can of cold beer: "Would you like a drink, Miss Beigong Ling?"
"Go to hell."
Beigong Ling looked at Esni uncomfortably, and then realized that the beer can in Jonas's hand was just a drink with a big zero-alcohol label on it, so she knew he was teasing her.
But he deliberately put a drink similar to beer in the refrigerator just to see his own uncomfortable reaction. How could this person have so much free time?
"We've arrived at the place. If Mr. Jonas feels something is wrong, it's best to alert him immediately. As for the celebratory wine and the banquet afterwards, let's talk about it after this matter is over."
Esni got out of the car first and looked around warily. After she found that nothing was wrong, she let Jonas and Beigong Ling get out. Then a man wearing glasses and looking like a secretary came over and stood five meters away with a respectful attitude.
"Mr. Jonas, the people sent by the Federation are ready. Do you need to rest for a while before going over?"
Jonas nodded slightly, glanced around, and then looked at the secretary-like man and said, "No need to rest, let's get started. Time is precious, and I don't want to delay too long."
The secretary bowed slightly, "Yes, Mr. Jonas, please follow me." He turned and led the way, followed by Jonas, Esni and Beigong Ling.
They entered a shabby-looking tent where several people were already waiting. They were obviously representatives from the Federation. The interior of the tent was decorated quite simply, but a thick contract document was placed on the table in the center.
Jonas walked straight to the table, shook hands with the other party's representative, and then sat down. He opened the contract and began to read it, while Esni and Beigong Ling stood on his left and right, ready for action.
At the other end of the table sat four federal representatives. The most conspicuous one was a middle-aged man with a sturdy build, slightly dark skin, and a clean-shaven beard. His eyes revealed a sharpness that should not be underestimated. It was obvious that he was an important figure in the federation.
Jonas carefully read the contract and marked the document with his pen from time to time. The federal representative seemed to have anticipated this and sat there waiting patiently. The atmosphere on both sides of the table was a little depressing, and the sound of contract papers flipping could be heard from time to time.
About fifteen minutes later, Jonas finally put down the contract. He looked very satisfied. He looked up at the federal representative and smiled. "I have no objection to the contents of the contract. We can sign it."
The chief representative of the Federation breathed a sigh of relief. He knew the importance of this moment. He stood up and held out his hand: "I am very happy to reach such an agreement with you, Mr. Jonas. This is a new beginning for both of us."
Jonas also stood up and shook hands with him. "Indeed, I hope this contract will ensure peace and prosperity for both sides."
Esni and Beigong Ling stood aside, with relaxed expressions on their faces. Seeing that both sides had no objections, the tense atmosphere in the room gradually dissipated.
Representatives from both sides signed their names one by one and stamped their seals. This contract represents the official end of the war between District 25 and the Federation, and the future will be towards cooperation and win-win.
After the signing ceremony, Jonas turned to Esni and Beigong Ling and said, "We have completed our mission and can go home now."
The federal representative also stood up and said to Jonas: "Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to more cooperation opportunities with District 25."
"But Dorothy asked me to come here. Where is she?"
"Miss Dorothy is here, of course, just... "
Even as he spoke, his body began to swell as if it were filled with water, and Esni realized something was wrong and instantly cut off his head, but his body continued to swell and exploded in an instant.
Jonas immediately used his psychic power to protect his body. After the first wave of explosions, the bodies of the three men began to expand rapidly, and then blew Jonas out of the building.
After hearing the noise, the surrounding soldiers and fourth-generation tactical mechas aimed at the building, and almost instantly, the alarm sounded.
“Beigong, Esni, go first!”
After Beigong Ling ran out, she hugged Jonas, carried him up and ran towards the car, with Esni following closely behind.
The situation, which had been gradually easing, began to become turbid again.
Chapter 554: Jonas, Run Away, I Have a Dual Personality
Jonas was carried into the car by Beigong Ling, while Esni sat in the driver's seat, started the car quickly, and sped towards District 25. Jonas in the back seat was rubbing his waist after being blown away.
"Thank you, Beigong." Jonas smiled bitterly. His clothes looked messy, but his body was hardly damaged.
Beigong Ling glared at him and said, "You'd better really thank me, otherwise my hard work in rescuing you will be meaningless."
She had known for a long time that there was no such thing as a free lunch. She knew it wouldn't be that easy when someone specifically asked her to accompany Jonas with a large amount of credit points and just sign the contract.
But compared to the worst case scenario of signing and going out for drinks, it seems a lot better.
