Chapter 502
Can't run away
Wu Song is a person who does not suffer any losses. He is quite clear about how terrifying this insect tide is. Although he had not experienced too much insect tide during Ovid's days, he also had some contact with the small insect tide. The so-called small insect tide still destroyed countless towns. The terrifying destructive power of the super-large insect tide that once every thirty years is not difficult for Wu Song to imagine. Since he can recover huge losses for the Blood Feather Empire with his own abilities, Wu Song feels that he should have enough rewards. Therefore, the list he gave this time was not only the materials for the dagger, but also some materials mentioned in other drawings given to him by Wu Linghe, as well as materials for upgrading the fifth-level body multiplication. These are all very rare materials without exception. It is no wonder that Song Lingshan and Li Wenzhe's expressions became so wonderful.
"Deputy Captain..." Li Wenzhe smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, the things you want may not be able to collect all of them with the capabilities of our two families. Besides, with our current status in the family, we cannot decide such an important thing."
Li Wenzhe is telling the truth. Even for large families like the Li family, they may not be able to collect all the things that Wu Song wants in a short time. Among the things listed on that list, 80% of them have not even heard of. And such an expensive list is really not something that Li Wenzhe can decide casually. This time, Li Wenzhe found Wu Song, but it was just a role of passing the message. He could use the Li family.
The kindness of Wu Song was conveyed to Wu Song, but he could not replace the Li family's decision on how much the price they should pay for this kindness. Li Wenzhe is the representative of the new generation of the family, but he is not the head of the family nor the ancestor of the family. He could not make such an important decision on behalf of the family alone, and could only tell the truth with a wry smile. Such a problem also exists in Song Lingshan. This thirteenth princess of the empire was also unable to make such a major decision on behalf of the royal family.
After hearing Li Wenzhe's words, Wu Song instinctively frowned. He was a person who abides by principles, but unfortunately Wu Song only abides by the principles he recognized. In his opinion, this cooperation with the two major families is like a transaction. The two major families proposed the tasks they needed to complete, and he also proposed the commission needed to complete this task. This is an extremely fair transaction each takes.
If any party thinks this transaction is unfair, it can unilaterally terminate the transaction. In Wu Song's view, this practice is a principled approach, but if he wants to make him work hard, he does not want to pay what he wants. This trading model, which can be called bargaining, made Wu Song deeply disgusted.
He looked at Li Wenzhe, then looked at Song Lingshan and then said lightly, "To be honest, I also want to contribute to the empire, but you also know that entering that damn wormhole is too dangerous. You don't want me to become a corpse before you complete the tasks you assigned, right? And the things I need are the most basic materials for my life to save my life, and they are also necessary prerequisites for me to complete the tasks smoothly. I want to help me find these materials, which is actually to help the empire and the family you represent. This is not my own problem. If I cannot meet my requirements, I think the negotiations between us are probably unable to continue.
I am not a Blood Feather, and I don’t have the awareness of rushing into it for Blood Feather even though I know it’s death. I think you have not sacrificed your self for Ovid either? Or if that big wormhole was opened on the territory of other families this time, you, Li Wenzhe, wouldn’t be so proactive? So these things are the prerequisites for me to complete my mission. If there weren’t these, I’m sorry, I don’t think I would rush into the wormhole to die.”
After Wu Song finished speaking, Li Wenzhe and Song Lingshan were silent for a while. Although they felt that the conditions offered by Wu Song were really suspected of a lion's mouth, once the wormhole was not blocked in time, the losses suffered by the Li family and the entire Blood Feather Empire would be too great. Moreover, Wu Song's words were not unreasonable. If it were the Ovid Empire who was attacked, they would not have put themselves in danger as Blood Feathers.
Song Lingshan and Li Wenzhe are both core members of the family, and they are also exposed to many things about the core interests of the family. In their opinion, Wu Song basically does not do anything about interests. Everyone has discussed and bargained repeatedly to finally achieve the goal of each person's needs. Wu Song's toughness in this matter made the two of them feel a little overwhelmed.
The two looked at Wu Song with strange eyes, hoping that Wu Song could justify himself and change the way of putting forward conditions. What made them feel extremely depressed was that Wu Song was like a novice without any negotiation skills, and had no intention of giving in at all.
All three of them remained silent. This state lasted for five or six minutes. Song Lingshan gritted her teeth and walked behind Wu Song, holding Wu Song's neck with both hands. Then she muttered a few words in Wu Song's ear with a blushing complexion. Li Wenzhe was surprised to find that Wu Song immediately shivered, and turned her head to look at Song Lingshan with an extremely strange look. Then she lowered her head and pursed her lips for a long time. Then she took the list in Song Lingshan's hand and marked some of the materials listed on the list with a pen.
After making the mark, he sighed and said, "Okay, this is the biggest concession I can make. The materials I have marked must be found. You should try to find other materials as much as possible, but you have to send them over within two months, because it will take some time to find my master to forge equipment. In two months, I will come to the Imperial City to collect the materials. This is my bottom line. Please discuss with the people of your family. I agree to give me a reply in the past two days. I have something to do, so I will leave first."
After Wu Song finished speaking, he stood up and flew as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying. Li Wenzhe looked at Wu Song's back as he was away, then looked at the list of marks on the table, and then looked at Song Lingshan next to him with an extremely incredible look. He drank the wine in the glass and then sighed and said, "Princess, you should do it. If it weren't for you, this negotiation would have been frozen. I really want to thank you on behalf of the family, but... but can I know what you said to him? Why did the deputy captain suddenly let go?"
"It's nothing. You'd better take a closer look at what the marked things are that your family can do. This time Wu Song made a concession. For the sake of the overall situation, I think both your family and the royal family should do their best. As he said, if the task is really not completed this time, our losses will be more than just a little material to pay.
