Chapter 300: The Elf Digging the Wall
The Yaling Empire, which was determined and determined, offered a offer that could not be refused. After the delegation stayed for a few days, the two sides agreed on the terms. Luo Zhengdao found Drake King and Brando Feiyan and ordered:
"You two prepare your luggage and go to the Yaling Empire to welcome the bride with the Marquis. Do you know what to do?"
Drake, who was short and fat, seemed particularly excited at this time. Marrying a great power like the Yaling Empire would have many benefits for the human resistance's cause of restoration. He stroked his chest with his hand excitedly and bowed to his body and said:
"Yes, Your Highness, we will definitely complete the mission you have entrusted to welcome the bride back safely..."
After looking at his two subordinates, Luo Zhengdao smiled slightly, hugged and said goodbye to them, and said:
"Well, I wish you all the best."
No matter what investment project you are involved in, the first step is to measure value and value. The necessary prerequisite for making a decision is to consider the return on investment and potential risk factors.
The bearded man in the old world who is good at objectively analyzing economic laws once said that businessmen dared to trample all laws in the world for three times profits, and did not hesitate to put on the gallows for it. It happened that there are too many businesses in the world who have more than three times the return rate. The reason why many people are addicted to gambling all day long and have lost everything is because they think that it is difficult to find more promising projects than gambling when making money with small profits. Legalized national lottery is also a kind of gambling. Although people with a little common sense of mathematics know that even if human factors are not taken into account, the probability of winning the lottery is minimal, and countless people still insist on buying lottery tickets.
In the eyes of speculators with luck, the maximum loss of buying a lottery is how many dollars, and once you win the lottery, you will have the hope of winning a huge prize of tens of millions. Although you know that this industry is full of dark stories and secret operations are a well-known secret, they also have to fight for this slim opportunity to get rich overnight. By the way, this kind of mentality is really beyond help.
When facing the harsh reality, it is a common problem for ordinary people to be lucky. This is the case for personal investment. For investment in a country, the two are consistent at the rational level.
, supporting the puppet regime is not an easy task. Assuming that the investment target is an A Dou who cannot be supported, no matter how rich the money is, the funder will be discouraged. When encountering junk stocks fail to cut off their positions and stop losses in time, it is a big pit that cannot be filled! Of course, on the other hand, if the funded party can prove that they have a bright future, no matter how frugal and stingy the funder will be able to pay for it. No one dislikes the transaction that can make a stable profit and not lose money, and projects with low risks and high returns are even more popular. The return expectation and risk coefficient of an investment are a key part of attracting investors.
The fleet under Luo Zhengdao once repeatedly damaged the rookie navy of the second empire of Goblins. Although the loss is almost infinite compared to Goblins, the glorious record proves a fact that Will Nidham is by no means an incompetent person, so he has a good return prospect for investment in him. Because of this, the Yaling Empire, which not only invested heavily in Luo Zhengdao, has been busy deepening its cooperation relationship, but also gave beauties and a large handful of gold coins and supplies, the Elf Federation, which was always rejected, refused to give up.
The elves seemed to always believe that as long as they swung their hoe well, they could not dig without corners. They clearly held Gaud Nidham in their hands, but wanted to add an extra bet to diversify investment risks.
Just as he was entertained and sent off the Yaling delegation, the elves under the banner of trade promotion, set foot on the land of Chuanshan Islands in a grand manner. The members of the delegation with as many as three-digit numbers made Luo Zhengdao feel a little embarrassed. Is this a human-sea tactic? Could it be that the Elf Federation will not give up if it is prepared?
....................................................................................................
"His Excellency, what exactly do you want to say? Please don't have to go around again."
If the Yaling Empire is a noble oligarchy and the power of the state is controlled by a few hereditary aristocrats, then the Elf Federation is a standard consortium politics. No matter who chooses the position of the commander, it cannot avoid the influence of the consortium from playing a role. Members of Congress who can be re-elected for a lifetime are also more powerful people and more connected and potential than those who have to get out after two terms.
Suddenly, when he heard Luo Zhengdao's lukewarm question, the elegant elf senator was not conscious of being offended, and he said with a bright smile:
"I believe Your Highness won't like being treated as a puppet by the Yaling Empire, right?"
Hearing the sound, he would not slap people in the face, and he would not expose his shortcomings. He was exposed in person. He was exposed to his tiger skin in person. Naturally, Luo Zhengdao had no good expression and retorted:
"Your Excellency is really a joke. Yaling is our close allies, who have provided a lot of assistance to the cause of restoration of the Empire of Light."
It is obvious that it would be fine to fool the layman with such nonsense, but it feels a bit contemptuous to the senator. Despite the contempt of his IQ, the elf gentleman still acted politely, and he said slowly:
"Hahaha, the conditions provided by Yaling can also be provided by the Federation. But His Highness the Regent, do you seem to have some prejudice against our Federation?"
Luo Zhengdao would not make such a childish principled mistake. Piliyang smiled and said:
"No, I have no prejudice against any AIA, just don't like the attached terms."
There is no doubt that Luo Zhengdao looked down on the Elf Federation is indeed a fact. The reason is not that they were stingy or hiding evil intentions, but that they were not determined to fight to the end with the second Goblin Empire.
Luo Zhengdao could have foreseeed such a scene. Assuming that one day in the future, there will be a strategic stalemate like the old world in the war with Verdun meat grinder. Every day, watching his country lose blood and weaken, the Yaling Empire, which is slightly inferior in terms of economic strength, can last longer than the Elf Federation. The root of this problem is not the material level, but the conflict between the Elf Federation and the Goblins does not involve fundamental interests. Therefore, they are a group of complete speculators, and are always ready to protect themselves.
In the predictable future, Luo Zhengdao's hostile relationship with the goblins cannot be eased. Both sides must die to end the dispute. How could he be so idle that he buried mines for himself? Aren't he afraid of selling the elves for a price?
The limited cooperative relationship that he maintained with the elves in the past few years was, on the one hand, out of the consideration of checking and balancing the infiltration of the Yaling power, and at the same time, he also had the idea of taking advantage of the elves. For Luo Zhengdao, he would not feel guilty at all by using the elves' ambitions and taking the opportunity to blacken them some silver. This time, the Elf Federation took the initiative to send it to his face. Seeing that the big fat sheep was so enthusiastic, how could Luo Zhengdao have the nerve to refuse to slaughter a harsh knife? The indifferent and uncooperating negative attitude he showed at this moment was nothing more than a small way to refuse and welcome him.
In a cooperation with unequal strength, as the weak, they are too enthusiastic and will inevitably be suspected of hiding a trick. Instead, they put their attitude a little colder and more convenient for fishing and taking the bait. This move is called the tactic of hard to get.
The Elf Federation, which has never been short of money, highly praised the technological research and development capabilities and innovative ideas of human resistance. Not every armed organization can create a differentiated competitive advantage with relatively limited resources at hand. This is an extremely rare talent, and it can even be said to be a genius.
A series of new inventions such as the pirate iron-clad ships, pirate fighter jets and metal-mounted ammunition, which are powerful in the seven seas, are not revolutionary major innovative technologies. Many projects have achieved unexpected success only because their research and development ideas are different from the existing genealogy of the New World. However, it is these seemingly unrelated innovations that provide Luo Zhengdao with material conditions to defeat the goblin fleet many times. Just as a chef, it is common for a chef to test the cooking skills of the school, and it is easy to stew fresh soup with a large pile of seafood shark fins. If you want to cook the green vegetables and tofu to make the same good taste, that is a big test to show the chef's skills.
Having said that, appreciation is appreciation, there is only a naked interest between the state and the political system, and all actions will ultimately be attributed to real interests. The Elf Federation will not unconditionally support him because of his talent for appreciation of someone and the miserable situation of human exiles. Everything has value, and Luo Zhengdao is no exception.
The old world was changing at the end of the Cold War. Before the Fur Bear died, the Bald Eagle had a good relationship with the rabbit and was almost wearing a pair of pants. When she discovered that the Fur Bear, who had once shown her power, had not long lived. The Bald Eagle, who had never known how to spell the word "Classy", turned her back without hesitation, and stabbed her in the back. She used her ancestral skills to start to cheat her allies. With the Eagle Foundation's hand in hand with a handful of small green paper allocated by the CIA, she ran to the rabbit's house to fund various strange names of non-governmental organizations, which almost made the rabbit, who had not yet realized the danger, go on a daze with the Fur Bear.
As the saying goes, people are drifting in the world, how can they not be killed? When some things are mentioned, they are really full of tears!
A few years later, the financial tsunami hit, and the bald eagle suddenly realized that its financial resources were a little too much to hold on to the plate. So he just used the same trick again and sweared the rabbit to mess with it. No, it was when we were working on g2 together. The rabbit, who had learned from his mistakes, was very decisive and decisive. He was here to find x, thief, you get out of here.
Flirting with tigers and talking nonsense are essential skills for politicians to survive in the circle. This is like a new young thief must at least train his basic skills of finger flexibility before debuting. You can't even learn this basic skill. It's better to change your career as soon as possible! It's not worth it if you're caught and beaten to death.
The elf senator opposite maintained a politician smile as standard as the standard, and Luo Zhengdao bluntly criticized:
"…I can't see the sincerity of the Federation from these conditions, but only greed and **, please don't have to say anything more."
Although the Elf Senator claims to be knowledgeable and eloquent, it is still rare to encounter cases as difficult as this time. The moody human regent told him that he was not sure whether the other party was deliberately keeping a secret or really turning against him. Considering the strong demands of the consortium behind the scenes, the Elf Senator had to lower his posture at this time and said:
"Hey, these terms are just intentions. You can discuss the specific terms again. Don't rush to make a conclusion! Your Highness the Regent."
The move to grow and harvest is a unique secret skill for the rich dogs. If you spend a lot of money, you will definitely be able to get a bright future. The financial owners who are not short of money will naturally be willing to use money to pioneer the way to eliminate disasters and solve problems for themselves. The Elf Federation obviously thinks the same. No matter how cold Luo Zhengdao's attitude is, the elves will pounce on them with enthusiasm, for fear of missing this high-quality investment project. This Regent is much harder than Baron Ning Qi to deal with, and must compete head-on with Yaling, who seizes the opportunity. But seeing the profitable things, I am really sorry for the rich dogs' demeanor.
