Chapter 1196 Installment

"Different according to the repayment period, there are three installment methods: short-term March, mid-year and long-term three years. Which one do you want to choose?" Ma Chao asked with a smile, trying to slow down so that Yang Xiu, who was beside him, could successfully write an additional agreement for the two negotiations.

"This? ..." Cao Ang and Cao Tai looked at each other - in the short term, Cao's debts may be high, and in the long three years may make the whole Cao family unable to get rid of the Ma family for a long time - after Cao Ang nodded slightly in pain, Cao Tai then said numbly, "In the medium term."

"Since the Cao family must redeem these prisoners, the Ma family is also afraid that Cao's words will be untrustworthy and need to be guaranteed. At present, I'm afraid that Cao has no other guarantees other than geographical guarantees, right?

"This? ..." The two looked at each other doubtfully, and finally Cao Tai replied with regret, "Yes."

"Different according to the repayment method, it can be divided into irregular repayment and regular repayment. Which repayment method do you choose?"

At this moment, the two can no longer be allowed to be cut by Ma Chao. The reason for the negotiation is that one party must not be led by the ideas of the other party. Even if the scoundrel interrupts or changes the topic, it cannot be completely manipulated by Ma Chao like this. Therefore, after a moment of silence, Cao Tai suddenly said, "General, since the two families have come to this point, I, Cao, should not have been brazen. However, Lord Zixiu is the legitimate son of Sikong, and the two generals are Sikong's beloved generals. I don't know if the general can be brought back directly this time. As for the ransom, Cao will never lose his trust..."

'Yo, that's good. I learned to overdraw and repay so quickly.' Ma Chao laughed in his heart, nodded to Cao Tai and smiled, "According to what Lord Cao said, we will talk about this mortgage later."

"That's it." Cao Tai has learned to be obedient now and quickly bowed to thank him.

Now that the tone of the negotiations has been set, the next negotiation will be much easier. Although this way that can be said to make Cao's power and humiliate the country was proposed by Ma Chao, Cao Ang and Cao Tai have reacted after their initial doubts and consternation, completely started their brain cells to deal with Ma Chao, and the whole negotiation went smoothly in a painful and pleasant atmosphere - naturally, the pleasure is mostly Ma. Chao, and the two miserable people are Cao Ang and Cao Tai.

"General Qiqi, you just said that these tens of thousands of soldiers will be used to reclaim the fields and pasture at the Ma family. I think that with the wisdom of a general, it is natural that these tens of thousands of soldiers will not be held empty. Why do you ask for the general's vested interests to repay the interest here?

"Lord Cao's intention is that he doesn't want these tens of thousands of soldiers?"

"Where, the cavalry general is now shaking the world, but this time he is in such a dilemma. Isn't it both famous and profitable? All the good things in this world can't belong to the Ma family.

"You don't understand this. Before you redeem them, these prisoners were in the Ma family, which was the private property of the Ma family, so the right of disposal naturally lies in the Ma family. When did I ask you how to treat Cao's soldiers, right? And you stay here with these tens of thousands of prisoners who did not belong to the Ma family, which increases the burden on the Ma family. These repayments are actually used to pay for the expenses I came up with how to settle them.

"..." Cao Ang and Cao Tai were speechless and continued the next round.

"General Qiqi! You are killing people!"

"Why don't you think that the two generals Lejin and Li Dian are famous ancient generals who can dominate the world and surpass millions of soldiers?"

"The horse general's words are heavy, and the two generals are only two old Gers. Lord Sikong will take the lead in making the two go home to reunite and retire... In terms of ability, it is really different from the brave and resolute generals under the general.

"Where, I don't think ten General Huang can compare with General Li Dian. Isn't it, ugly brother?" The ugly brother beside him heard Ma Chao bury himself so much that he had to spit out the chicken bone in his mouth and nodded his head with hatred.

"The general is really joking. The two generals were captured by General Zilong and General Xu Huang, which shows that their abilities are really useless. It is really difficult for us to accept your price of 100,000 stone grain and grass per person..."

"It is common for soldiers to win or lose. Isn't Pound, the first general under my command, also captured by your army?" Fortunately, Pound went to the toilet at this time, otherwise, when he heard this, he didn't know if he would hit his head on the pillar.

"..." Cao Ang and Cao Tai can't speak again. They can't say that Pang De's ability and fame are really not good in front of Ma Wenwu, right? What's more, at this time, Pound has returned to the table. If the two of them speak, Pound, who is angry, will tear them up first.

And Li Dian and Le Jin, who were far away in the VIP prisoner's courtyard of Ma Chao, don't know how cold they would be if they were buried by Cao Tai and Cao Ang. Cao Ang and Cao Tai are also afraid that Ma Chao will be bad. If they can't keep these two people for a few more days, Ma Chao will really let them surrender to the Ma family...

In the next round, Cao Tai and Cao Ang were so anxious that they even wanted to curl a few hairs. The handsome face that can make women in the world jealous gradually become ferocious, and the four eyes are also congested, as if the gambler who has lost everything is going to turn over the book.

"Two people have a total of 100,000 stones of grain and grass. At this price, we will never move again!"

"70,000 stone grain and fodder per person, spending in the Ma family these days is different."

"General, if so, Lord Sikong must fight me alive after I go back. There are a total of 120,000 stones of grain and grass for the two of them, which can't be more!"

"The two have a total of 130,000 stones of grain and fodder. If you take it away in advance, you have to pay a deposit of 200 yuan first."

"General, you'd better hold me in Chang'an..."

“......”

“......”

The master general has almost discussed, that is, the deputies have gone into battle, and it will be more detailed when they come to them. Almost a county to carry out statistics, calculate the amount, property, determine the number of these prisoners and the property to be delivered - "The high-sounding words are handed over to the superiors, and the specific details are handed over to the subordinates to complete." This iron law, which is popular with superiors and subordinates, also applies to diplomatic occasions.

However, such tedious statistics have nothing to do with the overall situation. After all, the main line principle has been set, and what they carry out is the conversion procedure. Therefore, this negotiation came to an end - Cao Ang and Cao Tai both wiped their cold sweats and felt that the psychological pressure they had to bear after this negotiation was more thrilling than several life-and-death struggles on the battlefield.

But in any case, both of them felt that the task was complete and a boulder fell in their hearts. At this moment, Cao Tai raised a glass of wine and said to Ma Chao with a very complicated emotion, "General Qiqi, although today's peace negotiation is bumpy. However, after all, the two families are back together. I would like to ask the general to drink this cup to congratulate the new situation of prosperity and coexistence of the two families in the future!"

Cao Tai's words did not mention any nonsense such as loyalty and protection of the country. It can be seen that the Han Dynasty is regarded as nothing in the eyes of his second generation of Cao's elites. However, Ma Chao didn't think much about this. He didn't even take the wine bottle beside him, but still said lightly with a smile: "Lord Cao, your Cao's peace and peace have naturally been completed. However, our Ma family's request has not been raised yet. How can we say that the peace is over?

Whether Ma Jiawenwu was drinking and chatting or eating happily, but with Ma Chao's words, everyone stopped doing their own business at the same time and sat downright. Some generals even looked at Cao Ang and Cao Tai with murderous faces and burning eyes. Since then, the atmosphere of the whole hall has fallen into a pressing and depressing cold without warning. Even the sound of a needle falling to the ground seems to be clearly audible.

Cao Tai didn't know the color of his face at this time. He almost gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words: "What else does the general require?"

"Yingchuan County!" Ma Chao opened his lips lightly, but the three words he spit out weighed more than a thousand pounds, which made Cao Ang and Cao Tai almost breathless!

Yes, when the two families resumed their alliance, in order to ask the Ma family to send troops, in addition to handing over Ji and the two states to the Ma family, Ma Chao also strongly demanded that Yingchuan County be completely included in the Ma family! However, this involves the place where Xu Chang is the son of heaven, and the two families have been silent and have not mentioned it. But now, Ma Chao suddenly repicked the old accounts and really pried up the ** topic that really pried the foundation of Cao's prestige, which couldn't help causing Cao Tai to flirt: "Ma Mengqi, you bully people too much!"

And Ma Chao suddenly got up and shouted, "Son, do you dare to bully the iron sword in my hand?"

Since ancient times, there has been a quarrel between lips and tongue, Yan Yan, and sword dance and delay. But no surprise, this obvious concession and compromise activity will always be when the table is raised and the stool is pulled out...
