Li Songping sat behind his desk, and the whole person maintained a curled up posture.His figure was not tall in the first place, but in such a posture, he suddenly looked even more rickety, and the spirit and majesty of the past seemed to have disappeared from him.His office is not far from the conference room, on the same floor.When the office was quiet, the faint sound of an argument was coming from the conference room not far away, and the chaos seemed to be becoming clearer.Li Songping's face was blank, motionless, and he didn't think about anything.The quarrel in the conference room has been going on for a long time.In the middle of the night, to be exact.No, the related quarrel should have been showing signs a few days ago, and it began to gather together in the middle of the night and completely broke out.Li Songping looked at his watch, ten o'clock in the morning.The long quarrel, the so-called discussion, has been almost eight hours.He sighed softly, scratching at his small hair, his mouth wide open, and let out a silent growl.This hysteria lasted about half a minute.Then he became quiet again, hunched over and buried his face in his hands.A few hours earlier, he was not here, but in a conference room on the same floor.He was also a participant in those quarrels, and he was also a member of them.It's just that as the quarrel escalated, he really couldn't stand the atmosphere there, and in a rage that almost ripped his face, he scolded everyone in the conference room before returning to his office.The meeting did not end after he, the Speaker, left his seat.A brief silence was followed by an even more heated quarrel.Li Songping can feel the complex atmosphere of the building today.It was a complex atmosphere mixed with resentment, unwillingness and resentment, and at the same time a little panic and powerlessness.This kind of atmosphere is constantly brewing, with this building as the center, and it continues to spread throughout the whole territory of Annam, making some people in the whole country panic and restless.Li Songping did not have any way to do this.Because the source of this atmosphere, this mentality, is himself, and the people in the conference room.Those of them who hold Annan's destiny in their hands have this mentality, so how can they control such an influence?
I can't control it.To be precise, it was on the night that the alliance besieged Li Tianlan that the entire Annan was already at risk of getting out of control.Because Annam is too close to Middle-earth.If distance is a soft threat, then the existence of the Blood Monarch is equivalent to a sharp sword around the neck of the Annan Council.Sharp, even beginning to see blood.Thor is still outside the capital of Annan and has never left.What is the situation now?
The Bloody Monarch Regiment left Nanyun and borrowed Tiannan, and this way south was completely a sweep.Crushing, to be exact.This is completely dignified, thousands of miles away, the whole process has not even encountered any decent obstacles, Li Songping's so-called elite all collapsed at the touch of a button, and did not cause any trouble at all.In the entire city where Li Songping is located now, all the supply consumption must be given priority to the Blood Monarch Regiment.Thor was not polite at all.During this period of time, the treatment of every ordinary soldier in the Blood Monarch Regiment was even close to that of Annan's generals.This kind of extravagance and even waste has to be paid for by Annan.Not to mention how suffocating their deterrent power is, but this kind of consumption, Annan can't afford it.This is the price they have to pay.If Li Tianlan had fallen as expected on the night of the siege, the current situation would have been completely different.They couldn't help but worry about the threat from Thor, and now they had even recovered some of Tiannan.This was originally a big gamble for Annan, and now that the bet is lost, he will naturally have to pay the price.As for how big the price is...
Specifically, it is how much they expect after winning the bet, and how much they will pay if they lose the bet.Li Songping picked up a document on the table and scanned it absentmindedly, picked up the pen, and wanted to annotate something, but he began to be in a daze.The smell of paint permeated the office.It's not really the smell of the office.It's the desk in front of him, the guest sofa next to him, and even the smell of the chair behind him.These items are all new.Not only these, but the bookshelves in the office, the potted plants in the corners, the windows, the chandeliers, and even the flags and curtains of Annan are all new.In just a few days, these things have been changed several times.It was night when the alliance besieged Li Tianlan.It was about forty hours before the Blood Monarch approached Li Songping's territory.The aura of chaos and ferocity began to spread.Thor came to this building alone, with great fanfare, until he entered Li Songping's office, no one dared to intercept it, and there was no symbolic interception.Thor didn't do anything to the office, but in the face of Li Songping's face that barely squeezed out a flattering smile, he directly kicked Li Songping's chest.At that time, before the blood in Li Songping's mouth spurted out, the pair of Jun boots had already stepped on his face.This was the first time that Le Songping or even Annan had been humiliated.And it's a great shame.It was on that day that Annan began to provide the Blood Monarch with massive, almost luxurious supplies.The next day, a few middle-level members of the Bloody Monarch Group came and smashed Li Songping's office with their hands.In the next few days, the Blood Monarch Regiment was not even in the middle level, and just a few ordinary soldiers smashed Li Songping's office again.This gesture of persecution is all too obvious.Thor even let out the words, if he can't see Annan's specific attitude, next, he will take over this building.Although this series of encounters is a shame for Li Songping, it is actually not a price at all.But he really didn't dare to let Thor take over the building.If the office is smashed, it will be smashed.The loss of dignity or something, at least in a small area.But if all the buildings fall into Thor's hands, it means differently.This is equivalent to the Star Kingdom suddenly taking over the Hidden Dragon Sea.What is this concept?
At that time, it is difficult to say whether Annan will be or not.Of course, if such a thing really happens, Thor himself will not feel good, and Zhongzhou will also be under great pressure.But the so-called pressure, compared to Annan's situation at that time, is not worth mentioning at all.After all, Middle-earth is now the real hegemon.Therefore, Annan can only hurry up to contact the Eastern Palace, and even contact Zhongzhou, and his posture is getting lower and lower, and he is becoming more and more humble.This negotiation was originally intended for Annan to negotiate with both sides.The alliance besieged Li Tianlan, and this incident happened in Annam.And Annan also gave considerable convenience, and even directly participated.Until now, Annan has not been able to explain what the hell was going on that night, and he can't explain it.It can't be said that the artillery fire that night had nothing to do with Annan, Li Songping and the others did not give the order at all, and the artillery fire was launched independently, right?
If you really want to explain it like this, it is not an explanation, although this is the case, but if you say it, everyone will think that Li Songping is fooling Zhongzhou as a fool, such an explanation is almost equivalent to a provocation, and the consequences are even more serious.So what happened that night, even if it was really not an order given by them, can only be recognized by gritting their teeth now.They attacked Li Tianlan.Li Tianlan was not only the master of the Eastern Imperial Palace at that time, but also a person from Zhongzhou.For such a thing, they not only have to give an explanation to the Eastern Imperial Palace, but also to give Zhongzhou an explanation.By the time the two parties were contacted, Annan was ready for heavy bleeding.This is indeed the case.Today, they have contacted Li Huacheng a few days ago, and then through Li Huacheng, they have contacted the Eastern Palace.Qin Weibai is obviously not in the mood to talk to Annan now.Therefore, in this negotiation, the representative of the East Palace is Han Donglou.Who is Han Donglou?
At the end of the day, he's a businessman.In the case that he could take advantage, the conditions he proposed were also difficult for Annan to accept.And Li Huacheng directly opened his mouth, and the conditions he put forward were like knives, cutting into Annan's bone marrow.That's why the conference room is squabbling today.Because after they summarized the demands of Zhongzhou and the Eastern Palace, everyone was confused.The conditions offered by these two parties sound very simple.Central Continent is important for land and resources.The East Palace asks for money and interests.Middle-earth demanded the purchase of more than two-thirds of the land in the northern and southern borders of Antario for a reasonable amount of money.If Tiannan is added, the total area is nearly 150,000 square kilometers, and even if Tiannan is not counted, the area is more than 100,000 square kilometers.This means that once Annan agrees, their territory will be directly reduced by one-third.In this one-third of the area, more than 60% of Annam's various resources are concentrated, of which oil, coal, gold are the top priority, and there are also a large number of natural gas resources.In addition, Zhongzhou believes that Annan's previous actions are extremely serious provocations and demands that Annan pay compensation to Zhongzhou xxxx billion.That's right, it's xxxx billion.There is no specific amount.Because after internal discussions, Zhongzhou believed that this part of the compensation could be offset with the amount of land purchased by Zhongzhou in Annam.To put it bluntly, Zhongzhou just wants one-third of Annan for nothing, and more than half of Annan's various precious resources.Finally, Zhongzhou hopes that Annan will issue a statement to the outside world, saying that they will voluntarily give up this land and a large amount of resource exploitation rights, and that they will agree with the concept of friendship and harmony between Zhongzhou and Annan.This means that if I prostitute you for nothing, not only can you not be wronged, but you must also applaud loudly.Fortunately, Li Huacheng still nodded and did not ask Annan to continue to make statements similar to what will come back next time.And the East Imperial Palace, to be precise, Han Donglou is also not very particular, and it is not polite at all.He also believed that Annan's actions were a contempt and humiliation for the Eastern Imperial Palace, and demanded that Annan give the Eastern Imperial Palace an astronomical amount of reparation.There is a clear amount of this indemnity, unlike xxxx in Zhongzhou, in units of 100 million, Han Donglou is five digits as soon as he opens his mouth, and the first digit is not one.And he still wants Zhongzhou coins.Conversion to both currencies...
Actually, there's no point in worrying about this anymore.Because no matter how much this amount is, Annan will not be able to come up with this money at all.I can't get it out of the pot and selling iron, and I can't get it out of bankruptcy.But Annan did not dare to refuse.Because they simply don't have the confidence to refuse.They could only carefully bargain with Han Donglou, trying to pay in installments...
Han Donglou did not ask for any more land.But if Annan pays according to this tree, it will be paid in installments...
Their taxes for at least a hundred years in the future will belong entirely to the Eastern Imperial Palace.Li Huacheng can only be regarded as a stinky and shameless cutting meat.What Han Donglou did was to completely control the fate of Annan.It's not just this reparation.Han Donglou also asked Annan to give maximum support to Shengshi Fund's next investment in Annan.There are many specific conditions.To put it simply, if Annan agrees, Shengshi Fund will form a real near-monopoly position in many fields of Annan, which will effectively grasp Annan's lifeblood, so that they will never have any chance to turn around.It's all about being all-encompassing.To do a big death when you are not strong enough, you deserve such consequences.Of course, Annan has to quarrel internally.It's been arguing, it's been arguing.There was not even one person in the conference room who completely smashed his glass, and the excitement was uncontrollable.If they compromise on this series of conditions, they won't even be able to count as a dog in front of Zhongzhou in the future.It can only be regarded as a puppet.How willing is this for Annan?
It's just unwilling, what can it do?
Although the office door was closed, the louder and louder arguments continued to be heard.Li Song listened expressionlessly, until the door was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man about forty years old walked in with a tired face.The moment the door opened, the chaotic sound rushed directly into the office.Li Songping could even hear a familiar voice roaring hoarsely, unable to agree no matter what.Then there was a large chorus.The meaning of disagreement is very obvious, and this is what everyone means.But apart from disagreeing, none of them said what to do next.The corners of Li Songping's mouth raised, and his smile became a little sarcastic."
Speaker..."
The middle-aged man who pushed the door in saw the smile on Li Songping's face, his mouth moved, and he smiled bitterly.Although he is middle-aged, his appearance is still handsome, although his height is not high, but his every move is very calm, and even the wry smile does not look ugly at this time, but has a unique charm."
It's noisy."
Li Song said flatly: "Everyone is so energetic, come here to vent their emotions?"
What else can they do but vent their emotions?
”Bang bang bang!
Li Songping slapped the table vigorously, his face pale: "What else can they do?!"
”The middle-aged man sighed and wanted to say something comforting, but he couldn't say a word, so he could only say, "After I came out, they quarreled more intensely." ”Li Songping's anger stagnated, and the whole person became a little depressed.He naturally understood what the other party meant.The middle-aged man's name is Nguyen Thanh Linh, the head of the Ministry of Communication in Annam.During this time, the negotiations with Zhongzhou and the Eastern Palace, although Li Songping personally found Li Huacheng to start.However, Ruan Chenglin was in charge of the specific negotiation work.The purpose of the meeting next door was clear to everyone sitting in the room.Negotiations have come to an end.Both the East Palace and Zhongzhou have given the bottom line.This means that the other side will not budge.Those conditions that are difficult for Annan to accept, they will agree to it, and they will agree to it if they don't agree.There's no point in talking about what to do otherwise.Because Thor is blocking their door, they dare to say half a word, and it is not surprising what will happen next.This time, Zhongzhou is reasonable, has enough strength, and has made conditions for face.No matter how harsh this condition is, it is still to save face.Annan doesn't want this face, that is, he will be shameless, and he deserves what happens next.In other words, this so-called negotiation is actually about to come to an end today.Annan couldn't wait for this.Because the pressure brought to them by Thor is too great.He is here, and everyone can feel that sense of oppression of life and death.And his daily consumption also makes people's scalp tingle.If he could be sent away, countless people would breathe a sigh of relief.And what is the point of their discussion in this meeting?
Zhongzhou, East Palace, Li Tianlan.They really can't afford to mess with.So after the meeting has gone through the normal stage at the beginning, the next step is for everyone to vent their inner emotions.Li Songping couldn't stand it and left the table after scolding everyone, but he had actually expressed his attitude.He was equally angry, equally unwilling, and equally reluctant, but there was no way.So no matter how unwilling he was, he could only agree.He left the conference room, expressing his attitude, but also expressing that he no longer expected any good things from these people in the room.The people in the conference room didn't disappoint him.Not only did they have no good solution, but after Li Songping left, the quarrel became more intense.And Ruan Chenglin's departure is another clear signal.Li Songping was going to compromise and left.Ruan Chenglin left, did he mean the same thing?
Li Songping is in front.If the Ministry of Communication continues to be weak, it means that this incident is a foregone conclusion and irreversible.In fact, no one seems to want to make amends.At such a critical moment, the so-called redemption is tantamount to opposing Zhongzhou and the Eastern Imperial Palace.Redemption is tantamount to death.The rest of the people don't want to die, the only thing they can do is quarrel.It's been noisy, it's getting more and more intense, it's constantly expressing its anger, and...
Impotent."
You say, how long will they be arguing?"
Li Songping asked suddenly.Ruan Chenglin continued to smile bitterly, he was Li Songping's confidant, and in the current special situation, he became closer to Li Songping, so he sat opposite Li Songping unceremoniously, took out a cigarette and lit it, and took a big sip.Smoke rises in the office.Ruan Chenglin's voice was a little trance: "Maybe...
No...
They seem to be in high spirits, at least until after the treaty is signed, right?
Maybe you can argue until tomorrow?
”As early as yesterday, Zhongzhou and the Eastern Imperial Palace had officially drawn up a series of articles, officially called the "Treaty of Tiannan", and the various articles added up to hundreds of articles, serious and rigorous, and there were almost no loopholes.The people of the Middle-earth Exchange Department are also in the city at the moment, quietly guarding the treaty.Now just waiting for Li Songping and Ruan Chenglin to be in place, as long as they sign their names on that treaty and leave their seals, it means that one-third of Tiannan's territory will completely belong to Central Continent, and the fate of the entire Tiannan will also become a toy that can be manipulated at will in the hands of the Eastern Palace.At that time, Tiannan and Zhongzhou will simultaneously issue a series of statements to the outside world.After Tiannan issued a statement of voluntary sale, Zhongzhou will announce to the outside world that Tiannan Province will be officially established.Today's day is destined to be very lively, even shaking the whole world.When this series of things is done, this turmoil will be over.And at that time, the quarrel in the conference room can be over.At that time, the few people who are still arguing can pretend to be stunned, shouting that they haven't agreed yet, there must be a way or something, radical and want to speculate, and even publicly reprimand Li Songping and Ruan Chenglin a few words, no matter what happens in the future, at least their position is temporarily preserved.To put it bluntly, the so-called quarrel that is taking place now is nothing more than evading responsibility after being cornered.Everyone knew what was going to happen next, but the people in the room pretended not to understand, at least dragging the day over for now.They may want to do something, but of course they are not reconciled.But the reality is that they can't do anything."
Speaker, is there really no way to do this?"
Ruan Chenglin hesitated and said hesitantly."
Are you scared?"
Li Songping glanced at him and said lightly.Ruan Chenglin's mouth moved, he wanted to bite the bullet and say that he was not afraid.But in such an occasion, there is no point in saying anything.He nodded a little dejectedly, and his handsome face looked a little sluggish and stiff.Once the "Treaty of Tiannan" is signed, there is no doubt that he and Li Songping will become sinners through the ages, this kind of thing, this kind of shame and great shame, is destined to be written into the history books, and then they will all be stinking for 10,000 years, and countless people will spurn them in future generations, and their families and clansmen will not be able to raise their heads.As long as he thought about this, Ruan Chenglin's scalp was a little numb.If you say you're not afraid, it's definitely fake.But..."
It's useless to be afraid."
Li Songping shook his head: "There are some things that always have to be done, and you can't avoid them." ”Ruan Chenglin was silent."
I've thought of everything I can think of, and we've tried everything we can try, so this ending...
What can I do?
This is fate, the fate of Annan. ”Li Songping's tone was full of pessimism.There is only one way to think of the so-called way, from beginning to end.That is to wag his tail and beg for mercy towards Middle-earth.If Zhongzhou doesn't let go, their second way is to pretend to be more pitiful and act more humble.There is simply no second way."
We can ask the Star Kingdom for help!"
Ruan Chenglin gritted his teeth: "They are moving very much now, if they are willing to help us, do we have a chance..."
His voice became lower and lower, but there was still a hint of hope in his eyes.Star Country is second only to Middle-earth.And now it's very intense with the Star Kingdom in Africa.Even on the principle that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, they should not stand idly by.Ruan Chenglin's breathing became a little short.He really has no way, and he doesn't dare to face today's ending, any method, as long as there is a chance, he wants to try it.Li Song looked at him calmly.There was a hint of pity in his eyes.In Ruan Chenglin's increasingly strong expectations, he said lightly: "Xingguo, dare to take care of this matter?"
Hundreds of years ago, when they were the hegemons, maybe they could intervene.But the current overlord is Middle-earth.Even if Xingguo wants to toss, they just dare to toss in Feilu, they dare to run to the door of Zhongzhou's house and bark, what is it that is not looking for death?
”He sighed: "Your approach may bring a lot of public opinion pressure to Zhongzhou, under pressure, Zhongzhou may have a small possibility to temporarily give up Tiannan, if this possibility happens, then next, it will no longer be a matter of two countries."
Rather, it is the collision between the Eastern Imperial Palace and Annam, the friction of the dark world.At that time, the conditions that Zhongzhou gave up will also be put forward by the Eastern Imperial Palace and written into the Tiannan Treaty, if you don't agree, you won't have a chance to be a sinner for the ages.Not to mention what kind of action Thor will have, in case Li Tianlan kills him, what will we do?
Who dares to talk nonsense about what?

”There was a deep bitterness in his eyes: "After all, it was we who made a move on Li Tianlan first..."
Ruan Chenglin was silent and didn't speak for a long time."
At least, there's still a chance."
Li Songping lit a cigarette and listened to the increasingly violent quarrel next door, the mockery on his face turned into an undisguised sneer: "Quarrel, let them argue, and in the end they will find out that this is meaningless at all." ”"I'm afraid that they will turn over old accounts afterwards, and we will be very passive when the time comes."
Ruan Chenglin shook his head, Annan and Zhongzhou are completely different, Li Songping's prestige is extremely high, it can be said that he is a man of his word here, and most of the people who are arguing in the conference room at this time can be regarded as Li Songping's henchmen.If there are no surprises, Li Songping's position is almost unshakable.Even some small accidents, Li Songping was completely able to bear it.But this time the accident was too big.Li Songping couldn't bear it at all.Everyone has selfish intentions, especially those who stand at a certain height, who will not have some thirst for power?
At present, Li Songping's status is shaky, and his prestige has dropped greatly, even if he is his confidant, he will inevitably have some ideas now.Regardless of whether they are sure of replacing it or not, the mind to give it a try must be there.And the fact that they are still arguing in the conference room is enough to explain this situation.They just want to take advantage of this quarrel and drag time out.Once the Tien Nam Treaty was signed, they could blame Le Songping for not agreeing that they were discussing it.They naturally didn't dare to accuse Zhongzhou, but in the face of Li Songping, they could put pressure unscrupulously.At that time, if Li Songping can be driven down, they will have something to say to the outside world, and at the same time, Ruan Chenglin will naturally not be able to escape, and the two of them will naturally become scapegoats for the Tiannan Treaty."
Tiannan's old account, is it so easy to calculate?"
Li Songping smiled, his eyes were a little cold: "Don't worry, I have been in Annan for many years, even if there is pressure, it is no problem to last two years." ”"Two years from now?"
Ruan Chenglin couldn't help but ask.Li Songping glanced at him deeply, and said tiredly: "Annan, where are the two years later?"
Two years later, Annam had become the backyard of the Eastern Palace. ”He thought about the series of articles of the Treaty of Tiannan.If all goes well...
No, with the strength of the Shengshi Fund, all this must be smooth.In two or three years, all the people in Tiannan will be under the control of the East Imperial Palace.To exaggerate it, when they eat and drink saliva, they may need the nod of the East Palace.Later?
Judging from Li Tianlan's current age and length of life, at least fifty or sixty years, Annan does not need to think about the future."
There's only one thing we need to do next."
Li Songping said in a calm voice: "Obedient."
Just be obedient.The will of the East Imperial Palace is regarded as the supreme command.As for the interior of Annan, no one will be able to shake me for two years, and after two years, as long as the Eastern Palace is satisfied with me, then no one will be able to shake me either.In this position, I may be able to find other opportunities to loosen Annan's bonds, at least better than those incompetent and furious fools. ”"So..."
Ruan Chenglin was silent for a while: "Sign today?"
”"Let's sign it."
Li Songping nodded: "You go over in person, the welcome ceremony at the scene must be arranged, all restless factors are eliminated, and the scene must be grand and serious."
I'll communicate with Nakasu. ”When the treaty was officially signed, Li Songping had to attend.In terms of Zhongzhou and the East Imperial Palace, Li Huacheng will definitely not come, but at least a heavyweight will come.The same is true for the Eastern Palace.Wait until the important people of both parties enter the room, and you can sign the contract.Li Songping looked at his watch, calculated the time, and sighed: "Inform the media, it's time to publicize now."
The signing ceremony starts at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and there is a dinner after it, I will attend, the rhythm must be controlled, you will handle it. ”"Understood."
Ruan Chenglin nodded.His meaning was very clear, but the whole person sat still and did not move.Li Songping looked at him with some confusion.The corners of Ruan Chenglin's mouth moved, and he smiled bitterly: "Although I have understood, but...
I still don't really want to go. ”The fact that the facts are so clearly laid out in front of us is not that the so-called comfort can be effective.Today, when he steps out, he is a sinner through the ages, which no one can deny.Li Songping was silent for a long time before he said with difficulty: "We have no choice. ”The sword from the Middle Earth and the Eastern Imperial Palace is just outside the city.If Li Huacheng is smart enough, today's signing ceremony, even if they don't want to go, someone should soon press them over."
We must be sinners."
Li Songping said slowly: "Otherwise, when things really don't turn around, those idiots may fight with us for this opportunity."
Either way, at least it's better than dead. ”Ruan Chenglin took a deep breath.He didn't say anything, got up, and walked out the door with difficulty.The door was shut.Li Songping silently smoked a cigarette, stretched out his hand, and personally dialed the communication with Li Huacheng.
