Dawn of a New Era

Provincial Government Building, Conference Room.

Six negotiators flipped through the documents, whispered to each other, and exchanged opinions in a low voice.

Although nothing can be seen on the surface, the nervousness of several people can be seen from small movements such as subtle deep breathing, frequent wiping of trouser legs, and subconscious shaking of legs.

These few people are important, and some people have presided over large-scale business negotiations.

Someone is the international affairs staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Someone is an expert in microexpression analysis.

They have seen countless big scenes, and their psychological quality is excellent.

But in the face of the existence that may be the most powerful human being in human history, who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the barbarian god, this kind of tension still radiates uncontrollably.

The meeting room was fairly quiet, save for the sound of papers being rubbed against each other and small whispers.

This negotiation is too tricky.

First of all, the value of real meat is incalculable, and how to price it is a difficult problem.

It has never appeared on the market, and only once appeared in the black market. The price is 100 million US dollars per pound, about 0.9 catties, but this kind of goods is extremely scarce, and the price under the extremely strong market demand has no reference value.

This time it's not ten catties.

It's not one ton or two tons.

But five hundred tons, one million catties, at this price, it is 110 trillion U.S. dollars.

No country can pay such a huge price unless it sells the Great Xia Kingdom.

But it is obviously not appropriate to press it into the price of pork.

A person who can compete with the true god is enough for any country to treat it with caution. The only way is to use items that are also of immeasurable value to carry out this transaction.

But the key is, what... or how many things can be worth the 500 tons of the true god's flesh and blood, in other words, can meet the other party's psychological expectations!

Time passed by every minute and every second.

Suddenly the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man said: "People are coming, everyone get ready, there are still about 5 minutes!"

"Minister Wang, don't worry, there's no problem." An official from the Ministry of Commerce looked at his watch, took a deep breath, and said calmly, but a layer of cold sweat had already oozed from his forehead.

...

On the square in front of the provincial government, a military vehicle drove quickly.

"Zi..."

The tires of the car rubbed against the ground, making a screeching sound.

A soldier quickly got out of the car and opened the door.

Chen Shouyi got out of the car, followed by Bai Xiaoling.

He glanced around. The surrounding area was heavily guarded and there were soldiers everywhere.

"Oh, why is it so troublesome!" Chen Shouyi said, isn't this a very simple transaction, it used to be like this with demigod corpses, and even he was infected by this atmosphere.

No one responded.

He glanced at the timid Bai Xiaoling, and found that she was gone long ago, and he couldn't help but be speechless.

He wondered if he did something wrong by asking her to come over and negotiate for him.

As soon as he got out of the car, a group of people greeted him enthusiastically.

After some introduction.

Chen Shouyi shook hands with several main characters.

The people who come are of a high level.

A senior deputy ministerial official from the Ministry of Commerce, a major general from the military, and an accompanying deputy senior official from Jiangnan Province obviously attached great importance to this transaction.

Also have to pay attention to.

Five hundred tons of real god meat can scare people to death.

Once obtained, it would be like a shot in the arm for the precarious situation of the entire Great Xia Kingdom.

After some pleasantries, we quickly got to the point.

...

In the conference room.

"Sister Bai is my liaison officer, let her talk to you." Chen Shouyi said, letting out Bai Xiaoling who was like a quail behind him.

"Hello Mr. Chen, please allow me to ask, does she have your full authorization?" one of the negotiators asked cautiously.

"Almost!" Chen Shouyi said, "Of course, in the end it's up to me to make the decision!"

Several negotiators looked at each other, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Even if the negotiation collapsed, there was still room for relaxation.

What's more, this little girl exudes the aura of a weak person at first glance, so she should be easy to deal with.

"I...I..." Bai Xiaoling squeezed out a smile, but looked like she was about to cry. The lowest rank here is the division level, and the person who presides over this negotiation is the boss at the deputy ministerial level. I can't bear it.

Mr. Chen, think too highly of her.

Before she came here, she had repeatedly said that she would not negotiate, would not negotiate.

At most, it will only be bargaining, and it is such a big thing, such a big scene.

But Mr. Chen Gu Fei forced her to come over.

She's going to mess everything up.

It's not enough to repay her if you sell her and serve Mr. Chen as a cow and a horse for the rest of your life.

"Yes...I'm sorry...Everyone...Leaders, I'm sorry Mr. Chen, I...I suddenly feel a pain in my stomach, I have to go to the bathroom." She stammered, bowed, and quickly slipped away up!

slipped away...

The atmosphere suddenly became a little cold.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Chen Shouyi's face was sweaty. Such a big man is not worth anything at all, but...he hasn't talked about it, he can't even bargain.

Let him kill barbarians and demigods, which he is good at.

But negotiating, he's not good at all.

"I don't know Mr. Chen, but is there anyone who can represent you in the negotiation?" Zhang Deqing, who presided over the negotiation, asked.

Who else can I find?

Only he topped it.

"No more, just me!" Chen Shouyi said calmly.

"President Chen is the pillar of the country. Before coming again, the president specifically told me that as long as it doesn't violate the constitution and the anti-cult law, we can negotiate on any terms." Zhang Deqing said with a smile, while secretly looking at Chen Shouyi.

Seeing that Chen Shouyi was fine, he was immediately relieved.

I am afraid that such a character begins to pursue faith like a god.

How to deal with it at that time will be a huge problem. On the one hand, they cannot be directly classified as enemies like the barbarians, and on the other hand, it is impossible to agree to let go of their beliefs.

Whether it is a barbarian god from another world or a local human becoming a god, there is no essential difference to the Great Xia Kingdom.

People will become, no matter how pure their nature is, no matter how good their original intentions are at the beginning, when they have mastered the supreme power and the hearts of the people through faith, the whole society will inevitably move from a human-oriented society to a dark theocracy.

It's just that this choice is relatively better than the option of choosing Manshen.

However, this is a helpless choice in the final despair. As long as human beings still have a glimmer of hope, they never want to become a vassal of the gods, a battery that provides power.

Because they are human beings.

It's the terrifying upright ape.

Tens of thousands of years ago, they wiped out saber-toothed tigers, mammoths and various sub-humans all the way, and finally stood at the top of the earth's food chain.

Chen Shouyi was not clear about the other party's complicated psychological thoughts, so he asked curiously, "Any conditions can be raised?"

"Yes," said another negotiator.

"Then I use 500 tons of real god meat with weak divine power, and it's not too much to exchange for one or two divine weapons!"

"This..." Zhang Deqing opened his mouth. Shouldn't they make a rough valuation that is acceptable to both parties? As long as they are both satisfied and the values ​​are balanced, the transaction can be carried out.

It's too rude to ask them to set a price without even doing a valuation.

A negotiating human next to him quickly pulled his arm with his hand.

Zhang Deqing's sluggish thinking finally came to his senses, he suppressed his excitement, and stammered, "This condition...well...if it's one thing...well...it's still acceptable."

Speaking of this, he felt a little embarrassed, and added: "You can choose whatever you want!"

How can this be called too much, it's not too much at all, okay?

Compared with the 500 tons of real god meat, what are the artifacts? Those artifacts were left in the laboratory to eat ashes, and no flower has been researched until now.

"By the way, have you collected your bones?" Chen Shouyi looked at their reactions, feeling that he was at a disadvantage, and asked again with a twitch in his heart.

Zhang Deqing excitedly said: "Take it, take it!"

There is bone marrow in the bone, which is more precious than meat, of course it is accepted.

"Then add one more!"

ps: I have many relatives, so the next chapter will be at night.
