Chapter 81 Warning: It's Not Just Denver
Chapter 81 Warning: Not only Denver has
"This guy is really hateful."
Everyone knew that Guo Jinzhang was intentional, deliberately making such a situation of turning against each other when he had disagreement, and wanted to put pressure on Grant, Charlotte and others. But even though he knew, Grant and others had to bear it honestly, and they had to persuade him quickly:
"Mr. Guo Jinzhang, if you are not satisfied with our conditions, you can make your own demands... Why are we negotiating? Isn't it just that we can find a solution that both of us can accept?" I wonder how the diplomats in China talk to those Chinese officials, but they must not be as angry as me, but they still have to smile with these guys? Chalak persuaded me gently, but he felt extremely frustrated in his heart. He is a white man, a white man, and he is actually asking for a yellow man?
"The prerequisite for negotiation is sincerity. This gentleman who doesn't know whose surname is. If you don't even have any sincerity, then why do we still need to negotiate?" Guo Jinzhang asked seriously.
"That's better. Let's go back and we kill your five hundred traits. As for you, find some people to fight me... Don't worry, we are more optimistic about you." Li Asheng picked his nails and said lightly.
"You're welcome. I think you should have an advantage." Simon Wilson felt that his smile should be worse than crying, but the Chinese temper was indeed as bad as Charlotte said before. He didn't dare to have any tit-for-tat conversations to stimulate the other party... It's related to the lives of five hundred white militiamen. If they succeed, it's a merit; but if they fail, it's also a failure! Moreover, they also have their own strategies.
"Since we know that we have the advantage, why do we still make such a request? Do we be fools, or are you mentally retarded?" Guo Jinzhang continued to ask without hesitation.
"What are your conditions?" Grant said annoyed.
"You send us away from the United States safely first. This Chief Justice must also announce to the whole United States that we are just self-defense, without any guilt, and have written off all the past, and we will release all your people when we leave the United States." Guo Jinzhang said.
"This request is too much. Don't forget that you ruined Denver!" Benson Smith shouted.
"The citizens of Denver have also ruined my home, my life, my brothers and my relatives, and these people include your mayor, judges, and police!" Guo Jinzhang retorted.
"That's the city of Denver, it has nothing to do with the state government," Chalak said.
"It doesn't matter? Isn't Denver in Colorado?" Liu Tongfu threw a sanitary ball over, "You want to cheat? That's fine... Denver has nothing to do with your state government, so what we do in Denver has nothing to do with your state government. So, what's wrong with sending someone to chase me? How do you plan to compensate for this?"
"Yes, this is a problem."
"Charlotte!?"
Unexpectedly, Charlotte would follow Liu Tongfu's words and seem to agree very much. Chalac was furious.
"I just express my own opinions, Mr. Secretary of State, if you think the power of the state government cannot include Denver, I think I can agree to negotiate with these Chinese people about what happened before at another time." Charlotte also stared at Charlack, not only without any intention of retreating, but even a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
"Find out the object, gentlemen." Simon Wilson slapped the table helplessly. A secretary of state and a mayor, who are in the same camp, actually fought on the spot at the negotiating table. Isn't this a joke for the Chinese?
"Mr. Guo, we cannot promise you to release people before you reach the border. The people of Colorado will not allow their companions to be detained forever, and even we cannot object to their wishes." Grant said again.
"We need these hostages to escort us to leave the United States safely..." Li Asheng's expressionless face.
"We can keep you safe." Grant said again.
"No." Guo Jinzhang shook his head gently, "We have always believed that whether it is safe or not depends only on ourselves, not others."
"And we don't believe your guarantee at all. In our opinion, if the prisoners were released in advance, we would not be able to guarantee our own safety... Your militia had killed more than 70 of our companions, and we still have more than 100 of our companions who are still missing. This is also the harm of your people. How can you let us believe you?" Li Asheng also said.
"When the railway was built, there was no one to do it. I used to trick me into it with a sweet word. When the construction was completed, I didn't need it anymore. I treated me as garbage. I beat me when I wanted to, threw me when I wanted to, and killed me when I wanted to. In the end, I couldn't find a job. I couldn't find a job. If so many things are connected, what else can you white people have?" Liu Tongfu also scolded.
"The Pacific Railway has nothing to do with us, and you cannot impose such irrelevant things on our heads." Grant said.
"Then what about the whereabouts of our more than one hundred companions? I have told you in the previous telegram that they also want you to exchange for one of the bargaining chips for the captives. As long as there is a Chinese worker, we will release one of our captives. Where is our people?" Liang Zuying suddenly stood up and asked anxiously.
"Of course there are. I mean, the Chinese workers we can find, have brought them all here." Simon Wilson said.
"Then why didn't we see them?" Guo Jinzhang pulled Liang Zuying back to his seat and continued to ask.
"There are a lot of people, and we can't send them to Gunnison in a short time, so you have to wait a few days," said Simon Wilson.
"More than a hundred people are themselves, twenty carriages are over the sky. How much time can you take?" Guo Jinzhang looked at him and his face turned cold: "Can you not transport them alive?"
"You dare..." Li Asheng jumped up violently, "If our brothers have any casualties, I will kill one of them and let you prisoners compensate you!"
"Don't be excited, gentlemen, don't be excited!" Kerr couldn't help but jump up, looked at Grant first, and said to Guo Jinzhang and others: "You can rest assured that we will never do such a barbaric thing. There has been a tragedy, which caused extremely serious consequences. How could we make the same mistake again? The reason why the speed is slow is mainly because... You know, your companions have been hiding for various reasons, and it is not easy to find them. Therefore, we have not been able to find too many before we set off."
"Then why can't you send some here first?" Guo Jinzhang asked.
"Gentlemen, this, it takes time," Kerr said.
"I'm asking why you can't send the person you found first?" Guo Jinzhang suddenly shouted loudly.
"Your people are injured, some are in poor health. We are helping them, so it takes time. Do you still want us to appear in front of you like some little pitiful?" Charlotte suddenly asked, "If that's the case, how can we guarantee that you will not vent your anger on our militia after seeing the miserable appearance of your companions?"
"We are not as inhuman as you." Guo Jinzhang said coldly.
"Whatever you say, but we can't take risks." Charlotte took a deep breath, "the losses we suffered are already serious enough."
"Are we going to continue negotiations? Don't be entangled with these not-so-important issues for too long?" Ilge whispered on the side.
"Good idea." Guo Jinzhang snorted coldly: "Let's continue."
"You can't agree to our conditions, and we can't agree to your conditions. Then both of us will give in first, how about?" Benson Smith asked again.
"How do you plan to give in?" Li Asheng asked.
"We may not prosecute your actions, but we cannot admit what happened before." Benson Smith said.
"What happened before?" Guo Jinzhang and others were a little confused. This sentence was a bit too general.
"We won't admit why you did those things to Denver!" Chalak added.
"You can't explain it clearly? What's the reason?" Liu Tongfu said dissatisfied.
"This gentleman who doesn't know what he is meant that they would declare to the outside world that in order to rescue the five hundred militias, they had to sue us and no longer pursue the matter of setting the fire cattle and burning the city of Denver. However, he would not tell the outside world why we did that." Guo Jinzhang explained.
"What?"
"Don't think about it!"
Liu Tongfu and Liang Zuying jumped up together.
"I'm so stupid, I want to take the blame for the rest of my life? What a good idea!" Liu Tongfu pointed at Chalak and cursed.
"You, you...if you dare to do this, even if I fight for more than a hundred pounds, I will not be able to get the best." Liang Zuying gasped, and blue veins popped up on his neck.
"See, the gentlemen of the 'noble' 'upper' society," Guo Jinzhang also stood up, "We are not fools. Do you think your suggestions can work?"
"They just don't want to talk at all. I'll forget it!" Li Asheng stood up slowly and looked around and said, "Let's go back. When they transport the remaining brothers back, replace them one by one, then kill all the remaining prisoners, and then fight again... Anyway, they don't want us to live, and we are not sure to rush out of Colorado. Then kill one enough money, kill two more and make a profit!"
"Good idea." Guo Jinzhang stretched out his thumb and waved at Liu Tongfu and Liang Zuying, "Let's go!"
"Mr. Guo..."
Seeing the four of them simply turning around and leaving without any intention of negotiating, Charlotte quickly stood up.
"Mayor Charlotte, do you have something to do?" Guo Jinzhang turned around and asked.
"I want to say... our conditions are very good. Really, for you, this is already a very generous condition." Charlotte said.
"Very generous conditions?" Guo Jinzhang twitched his lips, as if looking at a fool: "Mayor Charlotte, it seems that I need to apologize to you. Perhaps, we were too careless when we captured you last time and broke your head... You might as well go back and see the doctor first."
"I don't mean anything else, Mr. Guo, I just want to remind you." Charlotte smiled faintly, as if he was sure to win, "Don't forget that in Colorado, there are not only Chinese people in Denver!"
"……What do you mean?"
