Blackstone Code

Chapter 1263: Talk about everything

Your Excellency the Prime Minister was obviously very helpless when he said this. He didn't want to tell the people in the Federation as soon as he came up, how much food they need now.

But the problem is that the person in front of him knows what is happening now.

Your Excellency the Prime Minister has been very tiring lately, sleeping less than six hours a day, which is cruel to an old man.

One day or two days may not be a big problem, but over time, it will be a heavy burden for the elderly.

He must maintain a high morale, at least to make himself look energetic, as the prime minister of an empire, currently second only to the emperor's supreme ruler, he cannot doze off at work.

That will only make people seriously doubt whether he has the ability and energy to continue to bear this responsibility, and he will only take a nap when he is too sleepy to support it.

Ten minutes, no more than half an hour, then rubbed his eyes, patted his head, and restarted work.

He feels very tired now. He wants to rest and rest, but he can't sleep when he thinks that the food problem has not been solved.

Lynch did not give the Prime Minister any "discount" because he was an old man. "Your Excellency, after the extremely cold weather last year, the global temperature has become very abnormal."

"This huge change has caused many crops to be reduced, and the world's output is reduced. This is a disaster for all mankind."

"The Federation is also at the heart of the disaster. Compared with the total population of Gevlar, the population of the Federation has exceeded 62 million, and it has grown by an astonishing number every year."

Your Excellency the Prime Minister raised his hand and waved it, "Can we stop talking nonsense, I just want to know, can I get food?"

"No!" Lynch's answer was also very decisive, not caring that the Prime Minister interrupted his statement.

In the negotiating table, every main person in charge will become extra sensible, because negotiations do not allow them to be emotional.

Your Excellency the Prime Minister anticipated Lynch's answer, and he proposed a new plan, "Can't you spend more money?"

"It's not a question of money, Prime Minister!" Lynch seems to be very firm. Spending more money won't work, so there is nothing to talk about.

However, if the negotiation is over in a few sentences, then it is not a negotiation. Your Excellency the Prime Minister regroups, "We can carry out some cooperation in other fields. There is nothing impossible in this world, and nothing is impossible to negotiate." of."

Lynch seems to agree with this sentence, "If there is, it is just that there are not enough chips on the table."

The Prime Minister was taken aback for a moment. He frowned. Lynch seemed to be making a proper end to what he had just said, but in fact he was expressing an attitude.

The federal people wanted the lion to open their mouths, and they planned to slaughter them fiercely.

Even before they started, they proactively announced it in this way. This is not a disclosure, this is an announcement!

"If you want food, you must pay a heavy price!"

In the eyes of the prime minister, Lynch said that. He began to think and hesitate whether it was necessary to do so.

In fact...as long as you open your mouth to let the grain merchants raise prices, the food shortage problem in Gevla can be solved immediately.

But at the same time, a new question will be extended. Once food prices start to soar, what should the poor do?

If they can't afford food, can they just wait to die?

Perhaps eating relief food is a good way, but relief food is not the solution after all. That kind of food does not make people starve easily, but it does not make people "live".

It is only barely enough for people to sustain life for a period of time. If they lack nutrition for a long time, people will get sick and eventually die.

Relief food can only make death slower, but it cannot prevent the final result of death.

This is a very contradictory choice. The Prime Minister considered it for a long time before continuing, "Tell me about your conditions."

Before the start of this negotiation, Lynch had already obtained some demands and bottom lines from Mr. Truman.

In fact, the federal government still hopes to help Gefra. This kind of thinking seems contradictory?

Not at all!

In the past many years, Gefla has been playing the role of the big brother of the world. Maybe the world was not closely connected before. At most, everyone had frequent activities in their own homes, and they would run less farther away, but they were not completely absent. .

For a long time, Gefra left a very powerful impression on the federal government and the federal people. Coupled with their record in the First World War, many people still believe that they are still strong.

Just like what Lynch said to Mr. Truman that the "Federation needs victory", the rise of the federal mentality also requires a process.

It is impossible for them to change from a bystander of world development to the big brother of the world. This requires a psychological change.

Aid to the former powerful country is the most obvious signal of the federal people in the process of seeking psychological changes.

If someone went to the Federation to conduct an investigation, they would find that before the First World War, the Federation's attitude towards Gevlar was relatively neutral and indifferent, and very indifferent.

When the First World War broke out, the Federation's attitude towards Gevlar became vigilant and unwilling to offend again, which is why the Federation later joined the Alliance of Victorious Nations.

Everyone knows that joining a group at the end of the war is not a good choice, but... After all, the federation's attitude of a little fear of neutrality will arouse strong dissatisfaction from Gefra.

Until now.

If someone investigates again, they will find that the federal people who have been keeping a long distance with Gefra suddenly become closer to this country in their mentality.

They are willing to amicably reach a certain kind of world partnership with Gefla, and are willing to lend a helping hand when Gefla needs it.

In fact, this mentality is not complicated at all, it is just a short-term vanity and show off after being "rich".

Look!

The big brothers in the past need my help. Now who is the father, don’t I need to say more?

Probably this is the mentality, even if you treat yourself a little harshly, the Federation people must show this kind of "friendship that will never be obliterated like the sky and the earth" relationship!

Including Mr. President, I hope your Excellency the Prime Minister can call him and say thank you!

This is also what Mr. Truman specially asked Lynch to express, and he must reflect Mr. President’s attitude in this matter, and ask your Excellency the Prime Minister to call him as much as possible and say something nice.

In this way he can be happy for a long time and get closer to Mr. Truman in handling some work opinions.

However, the Prime Minister is not clear about these matters. This is the reason for the disadvantage in the negotiation. The information is poor!

Obviously the federal people want to give it, but I have to show that I just don't give it. Before I don't know what the federal people think, who dares to mess around?

Lynch recalled what Mr. Truman had said to him, and first proposed the first item, "The smelting formula of special metals, I have a list here, which contains a total of twelve metals..."

Gevlar can be said to be the world leader in metallurgical technology, and another is the Penzio Empire. These two warfare countries have innate talents in metallurgical technology.

Metallurgy is not an easy task, even if you know what metal is in an alloy, you are not worthy of it.

Just a difference of 0.5% can show different properties.

But even if you know how many metals are in an alloy, and what proportion each one occupies, you still cannot match it.

The sequence of addition, the change of temperature, the duration, the method of reaction...

There are too many elements that can make people crazy. Every practical alloy is born, in fact, it is a gift from God!

These metals mentioned by Lynch are used in the field of warfare, which also destined that this requirement is unlikely to be achieved.

Your Excellency the Prime Minister did not immediately object to saying that it was impossible. He felt that after he had said it, he would say it several times in a while. It would be better to say it only once after listening.

Seeing that he did not respond, Lynch raised the second request, "Some simple research results..."

He said seven or eight items, and all made some seemingly excessive demands.

The Prime Minister waited for him to finish before shaking his head and said, "We all know these are impossible, but we are also willing to show our utmost sincerity and find something acceptable to both of us..."

This is just a kind of initial intention of negotiation. You tell me what you want, I tell you what I want, and then the two sides pretend to argue, then go back and close the door to discuss what their bottom line is.

Then around the bottom line, we started to cling to the "price", and we tried little by little, compromised, and made concessions, and finally got a result acceptable to both parties.

Most of the time, the results of foreign affairs negotiations are very reluctant. If you change the time and place and change the main responsible person, you may not be able to negotiate.

Lynch didn't think that it would be resolved in a day. They asked the staff to quarrel for a while. Taking this opportunity, Lynch took the initiative to walk to the chair next to the Prime Minister and sat down.

"I heard that there are many secret agencies in the Federation~lightnovelpub.net~ and you will also have a cleanup operation. Are you afraid that you will be too close to me in front of so many people. Will you be the target of being cleaned up in the future?"

Lynch smiled, "If the people of the Federation need to purge me, I am willing to fall back on the law."

The Prime Minister was taken aback for a moment, and soon reacted. In the federal public opinion is always kidnapped by capital. If the people don't oppose Lynch, no one can move him.

What's more, he has a good relationship with the president, senior officials and even the senior leaders of the Progressive Party. Purging is just a joke.

"Then what do you want to talk to me?"

Lynch took out the cigarette, flicked it, talked about a cigarette, and looked at Mr. Prime Minister, who hesitated for a moment, but nodded and took it.

Two people, two camps, two mentalities, two people from the world, just like this, they put their heads together and lit a cigarette with Lynch's lighter.

"Hi..." Lynch took a sip, then slowly spit out, "...Of course it's talking about nobles!"
