v2 Chapter 170: unruly negotiator

The majestic white mist poured out from several openings at the bottom of the airship, and it looked a bit like the state of the rocket when it took off, but there was no obvious fire.

The sound of the huge whale oil engine and the spiral fans on both sides of the airship being activated was deafening, and the blowing smoke was scattered in all directions.

The airship slowly lifted off the ground and officially took off.

Since this time it was just a tour around the city, in order to ensure that people in most areas could enjoy the full view of the airship, the speed of the airship was adjusted to the lowest gear.

Donald stood in the aisle, with the red carpeted floor under his feet, his back against the door frame, his eyes gazing out through the round window above.

He didn't imagine the commanding and magnificent scenery. All he saw was a large gray sky, because there was an airship facility outside where he was now, blocking his sight.

Rows of escape "hot air balloons".

Donald didn't know what to call these escape devices, so he could only temporarily replace them with hot air balloons. There was actually a corridor outside the aisle, which was roughly zigzag. Every few meters, there would be a length and width of about 2 meters. The sunken position of these hot air balloons is mounted.

It is naturally shut down now, and they will only be activated when an emergency occurs, and it is precisely because of the existence of these things that the view is completely blocked.

"Our luck is too bad, isn't it? Even if we can't get the glass collision angle, we have to get the spiral corridor and lobby in the middle floor. You can't see the interior of the boat, not even a chair...Anyone you know from other teams? You should have given the camera to someone before you knew you were on the boat."

Susannah clasped at a window next to her with both hands, tiptoed to look at the scene outside, occasionally picked up the camera and kept pressing the shutter, in the end she turned her head and complained with a bitter look.

Brown-yellow metal pipes and mechanical gears are everywhere here. Compared with the exquisite and gorgeous places in other places, it can only be said that it is barely related to the simplicity and beauty.

"Let's guard the escape point. This is a special treatment. Maybe it's because the case of the Owen family has been solved before, so the police station thinks that our Rose Squad is strong, so it is arranged like this."

In terms of importance, the place where the escape equipment is placed can naturally be ranked in the top of the airship. There seems to be no other reason other than Stephanie's explanation.

"This kind of attention is not what I want... What are you talking about in the spiral corridor now, the pre-negotiation banquet to celebrate the successful launch of the airship?"

Susannah, who was thinking about sightseeing and taking pictures, simply sat down along the bulkhead of the airship.

She overestimated the relationship between the Demingham government and business alliances today.

The so-called spiral corridor is a large-scale building similar to a pavilion in the middle and rear sections of the whole new airship. At this time, it is not only not as harmonious as Susannah imagined, but there is a sense of urgency before the war.

Representative officials of Demingham City Hall were all present, with Demingham Mayor Tiffany Garcia and Deputy Mayor Mark Darren standing at the forefront.

The business alliances are also all the presidents of top-level consortia or chambers of commerce. The two presidents of Lenny Machinery and Captain Maxwell are at the forefront.

Behind these two groups is the team led by Behemo Edward, who appeared as the protector of the negotiation conference.

"I'm very pleased that you can all come to participate in the final vesting negotiations. I think we should be able to reach a consensus that is satisfactory to both parties."

There was no shortage of words to be said in the scene. Semir Garcia shook hands with Stley Leni, both of whom had smiles on their faces. As for the smile in their eyes, that was another matter.

The two groups of people are gathered together, but they are clearly separated, and the number of people on the Chamber of Commerce Alliance side is larger. They are their respective secretaries or assistants, each holding a file bag and briefcase in their hands. on the thing.

Halfway through, the president of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce took a step out of the originally neat chamber of commerce alliance team, and trotted forward again. The gem ring in his hand dazzled his eyes when he ran, which was too tacky.

"President, I don't think the distribution method you proposed is wrong. It should be like mine..."

"Mr. Lewis, I don't think now is the time to discuss this kind of thing. We should have made it very clear before that there will be no changes to the negotiation plan!"

Stley Lennie's face suddenly gloomy, and everyone in the government team next to him was stunned at first, and then it was also a little bit of fun.

Infighting before negotiations?

The situation was originally unfavorable for the business alliance, and this kind of trouble is still happening at this time, and the negotiations will not be settled later.

Thinking of this, the officials on the government side couldn't help but hang up some arcs, but Semir Garcia and Mark Darren still looked at this scene expressionlessly.

"Mr. Lewis, this kind of behavior of yours can't get you the benefits you want, you should... I'm very sorry, there is a difference of opinion between us, can you give me this old guy a face? What time do we have to deal with issues internally? Just 10 minutes.”

Stley Lennie turned around, the smile on his face was still sincere, but Sandy Lewis behind him had a gloomy face, as if something didn't go his way, which caused his emotions to have this problem.

This person is a mindless guy, and he dares to offend Stley Leney, which is the consensus of most people.

There is no doubt that the people present are the tasks of the upper class in Demingham. They have long heard about the arrogant and domineering character of Sandy Lewis, the chairman of the Ocean Chamber of Commerce, and he has no regard for anyone. It is not too strange for a nouveau riche with no family background to do such a thing.

The chairman of a top Demingham Chamber of Commerce pulled his old face to fight for these ten minutes. Now he seems to have the advantage, and of course there is no reason to refuse.

Negotiations are delayed for ten minutes, and government officials will wait in the conference hall for the business alliance to discuss a result before starting final negotiations.

The two sides were separated like this, and the people from the business alliance were led by the waiter on the airship to the lounge on the third floor of the spiral corridor.

"Thank you for leading the way. Next is the time for the internal meeting of the business alliance. Commercial secrets. We don't want to be disturbed, and no one should come near."

Fax Maxwell's naturally sullen face is always a great deterrent when speaking to people face to face.

Before the waiter could react, the door in front of him was closed, and finally he could only retreat silently.

In the door at this time, someone was facing the door panel, with his hands on his chest, and after about 5 seconds, he said, "There is no one around."

"Sandy, it's hard work. If it wasn't for you this time, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to replace the scene just now with someone else."

Stley Lennie's face was not as gloomy as before, looking at Sandy Lewis, who was wiping sweat with a handkerchief beside him.

In the plan, someone needs to stand up and buy time. If the negotiation starts directly according to the original process, they will not have the opportunity to carry out the plan.

"Go ahead, don't waste time."

Fax Maxwell stood aside and said to several "assistants" beside him and the other two.

A few people wearing brown long trench coats and bowler hats stood up. Compared with the others, they all carried larger briefcases. They put them on the table next to them and opened them. Purple spar, a triangular plate engraved with inscriptions around it, and some arc-shaped mechanical accessories.

In order not to hinder their work, the people who really belonged to the business alliance gathered together at this time and watched these people move in an orderly manner.

"Done." "Put it away." "Okay." "Done."

One person squatted in a corner, and the triangular board was placed.

"start up!"

The spells are cast at the same time, and both the speed of the printing and the interval time are quite accurate. Obviously, they have done joint exercises before coming here. The spar in the center of the triangular plate in the four corners dashes a purple energy line respectively, and encounters the corner of the room. After that, it began to extend in all directions, and soon the entire room was wrapped in an energy enchantment.

This flash of light didn't last long, and faded after just a few seconds of appearance.

"What are they doing?"

Fax Maxwell turned his head and asked the assistant beside him in a low voice, who was also the man who guarded him.

"They are arranging a magic barrier. There should be some magic items or magic circles to activate later. There are many aliens on the airship. Find."

As a stranger, he did not study much in the field of enchantment, but this level of arrangement can still be seen.

Several wizards did not continue, but stopped after setting up the enchantment.

Time passes gradually.

Ten minutes, and soon.

"Almost there, Sandy stay, let's go."

According to the plan, Sandy Lewis at this time should be dissatisfied with the discussion result of the business alliance, so he was forced to stay in the lounge by them~lightnovelpub.net~ This reason sounds a bit far-fetched just like the previous one. But I really can't think of a better excuse right now.

In fact, all they have to do is to delay the current period of time. The excuse is not important, the key is to ensure that the people on the new airship will not come and beat the people in the room.

As long as the day goes smoothly and the plan is successful, then everything is easy to say.

When all but Sandy Lewis and the five wizards left, the arrangement began again.

"Set up a small teleportation array first, and transport some other portal accessories first. They will delay the time as much as possible and move quickly."

"clear!"

The establishment of a large portal takes time, and a few people are not enough to capture this heavily guarded airship with a dominant powerhouse.

They need more help!
