MTL - Twenty Seven Years-Chapter 458 negotiation
While waiting, Verac asked Carranza more about Gonzalez.
Gonzalez is the owner of the largest casino in the inner city. He is generous, but known for his cruel methods.
Villac and the others considered this person when they were looking for a partner last night, but because they didn't know much about him, and they were worried that the other party's power would be too strong to be controlled, and there was a risk of black people, so they had to screen him out in the end.
"Gonzalez's background is intricate, and he has close ties with many powerful people. In my impression, several prominent figures were killed because they owed him money... As for how much backer he has in the inner city, can he I don't pay attention to anyone, and I don't know about it..." When Carranza mentioned what he had seen and heard, he couldn't help but tremble with fear.
"Isn't the inner city claiming that any passer-by is either rich or expensive? Since the rich and powerful gather here, they don't have the ability to reach the sky. There are casinos, and how dare they attack gamblers." Verak is not surprised by this.
"This person is so powerful, will he not take us seriously?" Connie assessed the risk of meeting Gonzales.
"Those who can get to this point are not stupid. Even if Gonzalez is a member of the Montrego government, now that the government is in irreversible decline and it is a matter of time before its downfall, he will not rashly hurt us, for nothing. Offend the International Equality League." Verac's tone was a little relaxed.
In Bash, or any country other than Montrego, he will not contact people who may have government background without preparation.
The main reason why Montrego has such boldness is that the International Equality Alliance is indeed at odds with the governments of various countries, but the Montrego government is about to disappear. Who would want to fight for a messy organization that is about to collapse and gain the limelight? of them against?
"It seems that the significance of our stay here is not only to raise funds." Murphy thought of something similar to Veraker.
"Yes." Verac sat firmly on the sofa and looked out the window, "If Gonzalez has nothing to do with the Montrego government, we can talk about a win-win situation for the three parties. If he has anything to do with the Montrego government, Then maybe we can use him as a breakthrough point to get in touch with those people from the government."
"It is only a matter of time before the Menglege government falls. I guess that although the major warlords did not directly capture the city of Menglege, there will be many people sent out to infiltrate and lobby. If you make up your mind to contact them, it is equivalent to us now Join the ranks of fighting for the city of Montrego." Murphy said solemnly with his arms folded.
After all, there are only eight of them now.
It is not bad to rely on the momentum of the International Equality Alliance to obtain some convenience. It is almost impossible to use this power to deal with the major forces of the Montrego Empire on the table.
The simplest point is that in the face of huge interests, those warlords who want to unify Montrego will not be too concerned about the status of the International Equality Alliance. If they are pressed, they will not mind sending someone to assassinate the weak Weiwei lark.
"Let's take one step at a time, at least implement the charity dinner and solve our urgent needs. As for the contact with the Montrego government, we need to adapt to the situation, try to create opportunities, and seize opportunities." In Wei In Rucker's eyes, whether to contact the Montrego government is an opportunity, but whether to seize it is another matter.
"That's the only way to go." Murphy thought for a while, for them, there were very few ways to go, and it was a bit naive to want to do things without any risk and achieve the purpose of this trip.
"Boom—boom—boom—"
The eleven o'clock bell rang, and under the bell, the footsteps of "da da da" came from far to near.
Carranza breathed heavily, and her eyes were full of fear when she looked at the door: "They are coming."
"It's really punctual." Verak didn't get up, but turned his head calmly, waiting to see Gonzalez's face.
"Connie." Murphy put his hand on his waist, where there was a pistol given to him by Lopez and others.
"Understood." Connie stood beside Veraker, staring coldly at the door.
"Boom."
No one outside the office dared to stop the debt collectors. Gonzalez, who was not tall, was surrounded by a dozen or so thugs, who came to the door of the office and kicked the door open brutally.
Gonzalez, who was about to enter the door, saw that Carranza was not the only one in the office, but also two men and a woman who looked quite calm. Then he stopped in his tracks, narrowed his eyes and asked with a half-smile: "Is this... in Talk about what?"
"Some things that are beneficial to both of us, please sit down, please sit down, let's talk together..." Carranza hurried up and invited Gonzalez to sit down.
"Don't introduce yourself first?" Gonzalez had a faint sense of deja vu to Verac, and this feeling made him subconsciously on guard.
"Ah, they are... yes..." Carranza looked at the group of people behind Gonzalez, wondering if he should report the origins of Verac and others.
"Sit down and talk." Verak said.
Murphy's deep voice translated into Montrego.
Gonzalez's pupils shrank instantly, and he thought of something from Verac's Bresci language and his own little impression: "Bressi?"
"Yes." Murphy said.
"...The two of you just follow, and the others stay outside the door." Gonzalez was quite bold. After guessing Verak's identity, he didn't show much surprise. Opposite Lark.
The two sides faced each other, and the atmosphere was a little delicate.
Carranza came to the door worriedly to confirm whether the door was closed, and then walked quickly to the two parties, stammering a little: "I, let me introduce, this is Gonza—"
"Let's introduce them first." Gonzalez crossed his legs and looked directly at Verak with a smile.
"Ah, good, good, this is Mr. Moster Verak from the International Equality League, and these two are also members of the International Equality League." Carranza introduced, "This is Gonza—"
"I know who he is, no need to introduce." Virak also interrupted Carranza.
"Ah, okay...then..." Carranza was a little at a loss in the face of forces that could easily kill him on both sides.
Gonzalez is a little younger than Carranza, but his aura and eagle-like eyes are far superior to Carranza's: "Is the International Equality League finally targeting Montrego?"
Verak also had a little smile on his face: "I heard that there is a saying in other places, saying that when you see people from the International Equality League appearing with your own eyes, it means that they have already taken root here."
"Menglege is in such a mess, how can you still look up to him?" Gonzalez joked.
"Just saved part of our work." Verak said.
"It seems that you are here to wait for me." Gonzalez raised his head slightly, looking down at Verak with a slight sense of overlooking, without the timid look of Carranza at all, "Otherwise Carranza will definitely call You have to leave before eleven o'clock."
"Yes, there is a good business, and I think the three of us can win together." Verac asked Murphy to tell the other party the situation.
Gonzalez looked at Verak with puzzled eyes for a long time after listening: "Why do you think I am willing to cooperate with your International Equality Alliance?"
Villac lit a cigarette: "A single newspaper office can't cover the 150,000 gold coupons, right? If you don't cooperate, even if you give Carranza ten lives, it won't be able to make up for such a big gap."
Gonzalez provocatively said with confidence: "But the plan you mentioned seems to work without the International Equality Alliance."
Quite courageous.
Verak thought to himself.
Ordinary people would not dare to make such a joke, even if it was a joke.
"International League of Equality, do you want to kick us away and play by yourself?" Verac took a breath and spit it at Gonzalez.
"As long as the money is enough, there is nothing I dare not do in Montrego." Gonzalez's smile became brighter in the smoke.
"There are not many people who are against the International Equality League who can still chat with me." Verak's eyes were ruthless.
He is very clear that even the warlord leaders in Montregori will not arbitrarily make enemies with the International Equality Alliance and establish enemies for no reason.
Gonzalez's repeated provocations are actually a test of the International Equality Alliance.
Regardless of his purpose for probing, there is only one response he can give, and that is to be more ruthless than the other party.
"I have heard that, anyway, I want to live a few more years." Gonzalez smiled and showed weakness, "This business sounds good. Since everyone benefits, it can be done."
"...I promised a little too quickly." Murphy finished the translation.
"It doesn't matter, tell them that what they have to do is very simple, stop the debt collection, and declare that Carranza has paid off the debt." Verac said.
"Yes, yes, but how will the final money be divided?" Gonzalez asked after listening.
This is obviously trying to get more benefits on the basis of getting back the 150,000 debts.
Provoked the International Equality Alliance many times, and now he is still greedy, wanting to ride directly on the head of the International Equality Alliance. Murphy was the first to lose control of his temper and drew his gun.
Seeing this, the two thugs behind Connie and Gonzalez also took out their guns and confronted each other.
"What is this for?" Gonzalez laughed dumbly, not being frightened by the tense situation.
"The share is negotiable." Verac didn't let Murphy and Connie put down their guns, and then put on a happy posture, "Well, I can share 100,000 of the money I earn with you."
The expressionless Murphy snorted and recounted it to Gonzales.
Gonzalez froze.
"What? Too little? Don't forget, without us, Carranza can only pay you back 50,000." It was Verac's turn to look at Gonzales jokingly.
Originally, he showed great sincerity, and he could return all the 150,000 gold coupons owed by Carranza to Gonzalez after the matter was completed. But he didn't expect Gonzalez to test and push his nose and face, so he didn't need to spoil the other party anymore, and decisively re-set the share.
"This matter is not easy to do without my cooperation. Let's make it 150,000 yuan, so that everyone will be happy." Gonzalez suffered a lot and did not dare to try it easily.
"It's only one hundred thousand." Verac didn't intend to give him a step down, otherwise it would be easy to give others the illusion that the International Equality League can tease it if it wants to.
"One hundred thousand... maybe there is nothing to talk about."
"There is nothing to talk about, you can only get a newspaper office, and Carranza's worthless life." Verak still has a lot of candidates that he has not looked for, so he is not passive.
"Without us, the International Equality Alliance should not be able to do it, right? It's better to win three times than lose three times, isn't it?" Gonzalez fought for a share of the 150,000 gold coupons again.
Verak's face was sullen, and he didn't take a step back: "One hundred thousand, fifty thousand more than you had in the same situation. Isn't this called a triple win?"
Gonzalez didn't want to make it too ugly with the International Equality League, so he put the responsibility on Carranza: "One hundred thousand can only be said to be a win-win for us. Carranza owed me 150,000, and I got 100,000." Even if he still owes me 50,000 yuan, the newspaper will still have to be sold."
"Wait a minute." Carranza didn't dare to interject during the period, but he had to come out to ease the atmosphere when he heard that he had become the biggest loser for no reason, "I know that I don't really have much to say in this conversation. , but I still hope that the two of you can listen to my opinion."
"Say it." Gonzalez raised his hand.
Verak didn't speak, and looked at Carranza quietly.
"Here's what I'm thinking, if this business works, it's most likely not the last time we'll work together. You're Mr. Gonzalez, the one-handed guy in the inner city, and you've got a huge influence all over the world. The powerful International Equality Alliance, there are many opportunities for everyone to cooperate to make money, and the current tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands are just the beginning..." Carranza tried hard to match the two parties.
"That's right, there will be a lot of cooperation opportunities in the future, there is no need to be so fussy at the beginning. Let me show my sincerity first, I can only ask for 100,000, and I will not take away Carranza's newspaper office." Gonzales Advance with retreat.
Both he and Carranza showed their sincerity, and the International Equality League should do the same no matter what, making partial concessions.
"Okay, then it's settled." Verak didn't retreat, and he wasn't embarrassed at all.
"Okay, okay." After applying for social security, Carranza's goal has been achieved.
"It's...decided?" Gonzalez didn't expect Verac to be so thick-skinned, and he took a step back. Not only was the other party wrong, but he took over again.
"Do you still have any objections to the sharing?" Not only did they negotiate a cooperation, but they also won 50,000 gold coupons in advance. Verak can predict how many children will be saved from starvation in the future.
"No, it's pretty good." Gonzales proposed this share himself, and if he disagrees, he will slap himself in the face.
"Put down your guns, what are you doing so nervous." Verak told Murphy and Connie to put down their guns.
Connie listened to the whole process and admired Verac's response: "You are amazing!"
"Nothing." Verak stubbed out the cigarette butt.
"You all put it down, too." Gonzales told his people to do the same, and continued, "The matter of cooperation has been initially settled, and I have other things I want to talk about."
"Same." Verak knew that the game was not over yet.
