Chapter Summary
Liu will not agree to let it be settled so hastily.” Now that we have gained the upper hand and successfully found out what the other party is thinking, we must do our job well. If he can't find favorable conditions for himself when he has the upper hand, who will want to work with him in the future? After all, if something really happened, it would concern the life and death of a magician, and not many people could escape it.
“On behalf of Mr. Liu, I would like to say that Mr. Liu is also very angry about this matter. Therefore, if you want to resolve this issue, you must provide Mr. Liu with certain compensation. Mr. Liu has suffered a great deal of trauma in this matter, as you should be aware of. If this matter is not resolved properly, I am afraid Mr. Liu will not agree to let it be settled so hastily.”
Now that we have gained the upper hand and successfully found out what the other party is thinking, we must do our job well. If we don't do it well, it will damage Renault's reputation. After all, Renault has a good reputation in Beijing. If he can't find favorable conditions for himself when he has the upper hand, who will want to work with him in the future?
Mr. Perry's face showed a hint of anger. This matter was not equal to begin with. The strength behind both sides was about the same, but we had a disadvantage: Mr. Yale's fate was unknown. Therefore, obtaining the antidote was the first condition during the negotiations. Other conditions were negotiable. After all, if something really happened, it would concern the life and death of a magician, and not many people could escape it. This time, as the plenipotentiary representative, he carried a very heavy responsibility.
"Of course, there's no problem with that. Our Mage Guild is hereby stating that we are prepared to provide 80 billion yuan to compensate Mr. Liu for his losses. As for the building, no matter what the damage is, we will carry out repairs. Is Mr. Liu satisfied with this? I wonder if you could hand over the antidote to us? Mr. Yale is a mage, and his future is related to the future of all mankind. If the toxin remains in his body for too long, it will not be good for Mr. Yale's health. I hope everyone can put the big picture first."
When Mr. Perry announced the figure, Liu Ning and Renault couldn't believe their ears. When had the Mage Guild become so stingy, only offering a mere few hundred billion? Did they even know what they were doing? They weren't buying cabbages; they were buying an antidote, and not just any antidote. This one dose could save a mage, and it represented one-fifth of the Mage Guild's assets. Were their guild's assets so worthless? They kept saying mages were extremely important, but when it came to actual value, were they only worth 80 billion?
Mr. Renault quickly realized that the other party wanted to resolve the matter, but was unwilling to pay a huge price. They always liked to associate it with the future of the people, so these guys were prepared to resolve the matter at the lowest possible cost. However, the people you are dealing with are different now. If it were in the past, you might have managed to fool them, but is our Mr. Liu so easily fooled?
Mr. Renault smiled, then said nothing more. After taking a sip of tea, he just stood there watching them, wanting to know how long they planned to play. If they had time, they could continue playing. Anyway, they weren't in a hurry. Although they were also injured, they were all routine injuries. The hospital would prescribe treatment, and they could eventually recover. But it might not be the same for them.
Mr. Perry was getting a little uneasy under their gaze. He knew that what he had said might have been a bit excessive, but they couldn't have this attitude. If they thought what he said was too much, they could discuss it again. But he was just sitting there watching with a smile. What was going on? It was clear that they didn't take them seriously.
"This doesn't seem necessary. We're both negotiation experts, and we know this isn't a small matter. Reaching a consensus will take time. If you're not satisfied with what I've proposed, just say so. There's no need to play the silent treatment here. We all know very well that playing the silent treatment won't make any progress. We need to find a breakthrough as soon as possible."
Mr. Perry finally broke the silence, but none of the negotiation experts were willing to bring it up themselves, because they knew that if anyone did, they would likely be blamed. Mr. Perry handled this very well.
"This price isn't enough..."
Mr. Reno only uttered these few words, which clearly stated our position. You said how important one of your magicians was, and yet you only offered such a small amount of money when it came to bargaining. It's hard to believe that what you said was true. If magicians are really as valuable as you claim, then what are you doing with this money? Are you just contradicting yourselves?
"Based on my investigation, a typical antidote costs around tens of millions of yuan, and even one made with rare substances would cost around 200 million yuan. We've already offered 80 billion yuan, which is over 400 times the original price. I think our sincerity is quite considerable. If you're willing, we should resolve this matter first. Mr. Yale has made significant contributions to humanity. He once single-handedly killed a god-level beast in the wild. I don't need to elaborate on how many humans that beast could have harmed. Faced with such a hero of humanity, should we really be so petty? Wouldn't that make us seem a bit narrow-minded?"
Mr. Perry said somewhat shamelessly, "We're talking about the antidote right now. It's going too far to drag this into other things." He also noticed Zhao Wudi standing next to him.
"Mr. Zhao, don't you have the utmost respect for those who fight against ferocious beasts? Mr. Yale has fought against ferocious beasts far too many times. As for Mr. Yale's achievements, I believe everyone can find them online. Mr. Zhao has always advocated for providing all the necessary support for those who fight in the wild. Even if they have the slightest flaw, we should still go. But what does Mr. Zhao mean now? Could it be that everything he said before was false? Or is Mr. Zhao just making a suggestion and not following it himself? Isn't that a bit like contradicting himself?"
This guy has once again caught some grammatical errors in Zhao Wudi's previous statements.
