Upon hearing this, Zhao Shānhé furrowed his brow slightly.
However, it was just a moment before he regained his composure, still maintaining a calm expression as he awaited Smith's subsequent conditions.
Noticing Zhao Shānhé's abnormality, Smith's eyes faintly moved.
However, seeing that Zhao Shānhé did not say much, he did not speak either. After a pause, Smith continued:
"Third, the camels must publicly acknowledge the crimes of this war, offer a public apology to us, and compensate us for all economic losses!"
"Fourth, the camels must hand over ..."
"Excuse me!" Without waiting for Smith to finish his fourth condition, Zhao Shānhé finally shook his head and spoke directly, cutting off Smith's voice.
Then, under the gaze of many eyes, Zhao Shānhé slowly spoke.
"Mr. Smith, if your conditions are these, then I think we don't need to negotiate."
"The process of the conflict this time should be clearer to Mr. Smith than anyone else. Now, any of the conditions you have proposed that the camels will not accept!"
"I represent one hundred and seventy-seven villages and am here to discuss the restoration of world peace with you, not to listen to your extravagant demands!"
Zhao Shānhé does not know how many conditions Smith and others have.
But this is all irrelevant.
The details of what follows are not mentioned, but the first three points, each one is unacceptable.
Even these cannot be accepted, what is there to discuss about the rest?
On the other side of Zhao Shānhé, listening to his voice, the expressions of Smith and others, especially those beside him like Field, were somewhat gloomy.
Before Smith and others could speak, Zhao Shānhé's voice echoed again:
"This time I came, I also brought several conditions from the camel side. If your side is willing, then we can reach an agreement with you today and end this conflict. Moreover, we can also help your side obtain some considerable benefits..."
Benefits?
At the mention of that word, Smith and the others felt a stir in their hearts.
Looking at each other, they exchanged a moment of gaze before Smith spoke in a low tone:
"Mr. Zhao, I'm not sure what conditions you're referring to?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Shānhé spoke slowly:
"The conditions of the camels are very simple. The camels require you to withdraw all your forces from the desert on the other side. From now on, all desert affairs will be managed by the camels themselves!"
"Additionally, there is also the squid village, all members of the squid tribe must withdraw completely from the desert, otherwise they will not be able to guarantee the safety of the squid tribe..."
Field's face turned pale.
Smith's eyes faintly flashed.
At this moment, Zhao Shānhé continued:
"In return, the camels are willing to re-establish a friendly cooperative relationship with you and jointly discuss issues related to oil trade, maintaining the order of oil trade!"
"Additionally, the camels are willing to provide one trillion jade coins to help your side with economic construction and economic recovery..."
After listening to Zhao Shānhé's words, even Smith's face looked somewhat unsightly.
Well, let's not talk about the friendly cooperation for now.
One trillion coins? Is this like throwing money at street beggars?
Yes, their previous demands for tens or even hundreds of billions in losses were indeed quite extravagant.
But even so, their direct economic losses have already far exceeded the trillion mark!
And now, the camels are willing to dispense with them with just one trillion coins!
One trillion coins sound like a lot.
One trillion coins may sound like a lot. But now, with the devaluation of the green currency, one coin from before is almost equal to three coins now. One trillion coins would be equivalent to about thirty billion before the war!
Thirty billion coins is not much.
Their cost to build a nuclear-powered carrier is already several billion coins!
The cost of the latest model nuclear-powered carrier is even in the hundreds of billions!
The cost of a fleet with the lowest configuration, including aircraft carriers, defense ships, submarines, supply ships, and others, at least needs hundreds of billions!
In other words, these three hundred and several billion coins are not even enough to build a fleet!
Even without the devaluation, what can one trillion coins do?
The cost of all the missiles they have thrown around during this period has already reached hundreds of billions!
And the cost of all the lost fighter jets, bombers, submarines, ships……
According to their statistics, the number of Black Eagle Village's falcon fighter jets lost now is as high as 636.
The number of lost Eagle fighter jets is as high as 374!
The number of lost Typhoon fighter jets is two squadrons, ninety-six!
The number of lost Ghost bombers is nine, and other bombers including Super Fortress, etc., is nineteen!
The number of lost transport planes is eighteen!
The number of lost tanker planes is six, and the number of lost reconnaissance aircraft and drones of various models is fifty-eight...
The total number of auxiliary aircraft such as early warning planes, attack helicopters, etc., is also over one hundred!
The loss of these air forces alone is already a huge figure!
That's just the air; the losses on the ground are not much less than those in the air.
According to their statistics, the number of various types of main battle tanks, self-propelled guns, anti-aircraft systems, as well as various armored units, artillery, cars and other equipment lost is tens of thousands of vehicles/sets!
There are also huge quantities of various types of ammunition and missiles destroyed in airports or battlefields by the camels……
These losses are at least in the hundreds of billions!
And on the sea, that's even more obvious. Although after suffering losses in the previous Fool's Day night, they learned a lesson this time and did not directly send their fleet into the drone bombing range of the camels.
Their fleet did not suffer any further losses as a result.
But just on Fool's Day night, their losses were as high as hundreds of billions of coins!
And it was the hundreds of billions in pre-devaluation green currency, equivalent to over four hundred billion coins now!
And there are also the eight large black fish that were mysteriously taken away by the Dragon Village before.
These big black fish, plus the original wood they carry, are worth tens of billions of coins, which is equivalent to tens of billions of coins thirty years ago!
Eight of them added up, the minimum is hundreds of billions of coins!
Any one of these losses is more than what a billion green coins can solve.
Now that the camels say they will provide one trillion, is this not like throwing money at street beggars?
This is not compensation but a blatant humiliation of them!
"Mr. Zhao, if your conditions are like this, then just like you, we also have no need to continue negotiating. We might as well speak with our strength!"
Struggling to restrain his anger, Field slammed his fist on the table!
This time, Smith did not stop Field again.
The red and white faces were their collaboration in the first place, and now, not to mention Field, even he was equally angry.
In this situation, he was already doing well to restrain himself, how could he possibly come out to stop it?
At this, Zhao Shānhé still maintained a calm face. After Field finished expressing his anger, Zhao Shānhé then slowly spoke:
"I understand Mr. Field's current mood, but there is something I must clarify in advance. The one trillion coins were not proposed by the camels on their own, but rather, it was after the Dragon Village convinced them that they were willing to offer it!"
"Mr. Field should also be well aware that the current situation of the camels is even more dire than yours!"
"Your missiles have almost destroyed all of their industrial facilities, and even most of their civilian facilities!"
"The losses to the camels are even more severe than yours!"
"That's their own doing!" As Zhao Shānhé finished speaking, Field's rage-filled voice immediately echoed!
Not only Field, but also other members around him at the round table, their reactions were also similar to Field's!
They were of course aware of the camels' losses, which could be described as catastrophic with words like "desolation."
But how does that matter?
If the camels had behaved like dogs and simply become lap dogs, would they have become what they are now?
Facing Field and the others' angry looks, Zhao Shānhé still maintained his composure and spoke slowly:
"Mr. Field, who is right and who is wrong, I believe we are all very clear in our hearts. There's no point in saying more..."
"In fact, if it were not for our persuasion, they wouldn't have even been able to come up with the one trillion. Not only were they unwilling to provide one trillion, they also demanded compensation from your side for their losses!"
?
At Zhao Shānhé's voice, Field and the others widened their eyes instantly.
"They want us to compensate them??"
At this moment, Field and the others almost couldn't believe their ears.
No, how dare the camels make such a demand?
Zhao Shānhé nodded slightly, then continued:
"Yes, this is the demand previously proposed by the camels to us. However, in order to maintain peace and stability in the world, we rejected their demand and obtained this one trillion coins for you to help with your economic construction..."
Bang!!!
As soon as Zhao Shānhé finished speaking, Field, who was so angry that he was shaking all over, slapped his hand directly on the table in front of him.
"They are looking for death!"
At this moment, Field was so angry his lungs were about to burst!
However, before he could continue to vent his anger, Zhao Shānhé's voice was once again heard:
"Additionally, we have also obtained another part of compensation from the one hundred and seventy-seven villages for you..."
Compensation?
Hearing the word "compensation," Field's anger was forced to be held back.
Smith on the side was also narrowing his eyes slightly.
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhao Shānhé continued:
"According to the requests of the one hundred and seventy-seven villages, we have prepared five types of compensation methods."
"Firstly, we will hand over the funds and materials, totaling twenty-six billion zero eighty-six million Dragon Coins, raised by these one hundred and seventy-seven villages to you. You can arrange it as you see fit..."
Upon hearing the figure of over two trillion, Field and the others' expressions slightly eased, but they did not show much enthusiasm.
Although two trillion coins are a lot, they are in Dragon Coins, which, when converted to the pre-devaluation Green Coins, is only about three thousand billion.
It's far less than their expected goal.
Seeing Field and the others remaining silent with their stern faces, Zhao Shānhé did not say much more and continued:
"Secondly, we will convert all these materials into funds and hand them over to you. You can arrange it as you see fit. Of course, we can also convert the funds into materials and hand them over to you..."
Field and the others remained unmoved.
"Thirdly, we, the Dragon Village, will take over all these materials and funds. In exchange, we will send a professional team to help your side with economic construction and recovery until the twenty-six billion zero eighty-six million funds are exhausted..."
"Additionally, if you choose the third option, we, the Dragon Village, can also provide an additional aid of one trillion Dragon Coins..."
Upon hearing this, Field and the others' expressions turned even grimmer instead of happier.
Let the Dragon Village help with the construction?
Although the construction ability of the Dragon Village is known worldwide, if they were really to come and help, what would they eat?
They can eat several million coins worth of sheep, several thousand coins worth of a water cup, and up to several billion coins worth of three subway fences!
How is that possible?
If all of it is given to the Dragon Village, then all their hard work for so long would be for nothing?
Do they really think that they are busy working for those people they consider to be scum?
What does it matter to them if those people live or die?
As for the one hundred billion additional aid from the Dragon Village, although it is pleasing to think that we can extract something from them, it is not as important as our main goal.
But it's just one hundred billion, do they really care about this one hundred billion?
If the Dragon Village could come up with one trillion, no, one trillion coins, they might consider it...
Seeing Field and the others still not responding, Zhao Shānhé continued:
"Fourthly, you can use these funds to purchase technology from us, which includes radar technology, engine technology, flight control technology, AI technology, ten-nanometer process chip technology, origin space station technology, exoskeleton power-assisted system technology, and condensed battery technology for both the Tendragon and Yinglong fighters..."
Listing one after another, Zhao Shānhé enumerated dozens of technologies or industrial products!
Each one is almost the world's top-notch, even some of the unique technologies or finished products of the Dragon Village!
After Zhao Shānhé spoke, not only Field but also other members of the Round Table Team began to sparkle with excitement.
Compared to the other three conditions, the fourth condition is like a gift from heaven!
Even for a group of Round Table Members, this fourth condition is almost unbelievable.
You have to know that any one of these technologies or industrial products can make people drool over it!
Previously, they couldn't find a way to obtain them, and many of these technologies had cost them a huge amount of money and effort to develop, with quite a few being as valuable as well-trained rats!
And now, the Dragon Village is actually giving out these technologies directly!
"Has the Dragon Village gone crazy?"
Almost automatically, the same thought popped up in the minds of the Round Table Members without their conscious effort.
There's no other explanation for it. They simply can't think of why the Dragon Village would do something like this.
If it were them, they would rather give out one hundred billion or two hundred billion, and absolutely not give these technologies to their enemies.
Giving one trillion or two trillion to the opponent may bring them immense wealth, but it is just wealth.
If the funds are used for research, whether two trillion can produce a thousand billion or twenty billion results is still unknown.
However, if technologies worth two trillion were to be released, they could potentially have a value far beyond two trillion!
For example, their previous stealth fighter.
During the Battle of Dumbwood, it was the stealth fighter-bomber that allowed them to break through Dumbwood's air defense system and destroy its defense system.
In just one month, they annihilated Dumbwood's resistance forces, captured Dumbwood alive, and used Dumbwood's head to shock the whole world!
What is the value of a stealth combat bomber?
The total development investment did not exceed one trillion coins!
But is its value comparable to one trillion coins?
So what is it that the Dragon Village has gone crazy?
He didn't know what Field and the others were thinking, but regardless of what they thought, it didn't matter to him or the Dragon Village.
After all, these technologies were just a proposal agreed upon during the internal meeting of the Dragon Village, a temporary solution to stabilize the situation with Black and White Eagle Village!
Seek the best and get the good, seek the good and get the average.
From the beginning, both Qian Zhizong and other Dragon Village administrators knew that it would not be easy to make Black and White Eagle Village compromise.
So to make Black and White Eagle Village behave, only special methods can be used.
The simplest method is what was mentioned earlier: seek the best and get the good!
Black and White Eagle Village will definitely ask for a lot, and the Dragon Village cannot possibly satisfy their demands.
So first, give a few conditions that Black and White Eagle Village finds unsatisfactory, and then slowly release the big cake.
With the small dumpling shop as a prelude, the big dumpling will definitely look even more appetizing!
At this time, the negotiations will naturally be easier.
As for whether Black and White Eagle Village will eat up the big cake, of course they will. Black and White Eagle is a carnivorous animal, not a herbivore. Without getting their meat, how can they give up easily?
So if we want this eagle to behave, we must give it meat.
But even if Black and White Eagle Village eats up the meat, it's irrelevant to the Dragon Village.
These technologies are merely the leftovers that were put together after consultation between the Dragon Village and Su Heng internally.
For example, the ten-nanometer chip is currently the most advanced and mass-produced chip in the world, with a manufacturing process of twenty-four nanometers.
The latest model of the hottest smartphone on the market, Apple, only has a thirty-two-nanometer chip in its mobile device!
