Marshall was in charge of literature, while Cang Long was in charge of martial arts. The two of them could be said to be the two great leaders of the Skeleton Corps. They were skilled in both the pen and the sword.
The Cang Dragon was in charge of directing the operation, while Marshall was in charge of coordinating the strategy. For example, in this negotiation, the meticulous Marshall had become the backbone of the Skeleton Corps. The Azure Dragon was only the number one figure of the Skeleton Corps.
Just as Marshall said, as an outsider, Xiao Zheng did not have the right to participate in the internal negotiations of the Fox Hunters. Before the battle even started, Marshall had already given Xiao Zheng a huge problem. This put the negotiation in an extremely disadvantageous position for Sofia.
"Status?" Xiao Zheng smiled and stared at Marshall. "Do you think I'm not qualified to participate in your negotiation?"
"It's inconvenient," Marshall said.
"Which aspect is inconvenient?" Xiao Zheng smiled with his eyes squinted.
"Not in any way," Marshall shook his head and said. "If you're not a member of the Fox Hunters, you shouldn't participate in the internal discussions of the Fox Hunters."
"Then how can you prove that I'm not a fox hunter?" Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.
"As far as I know. Mr Xiao has his own team, and they are currently working with Hua Xia. "Marshall shook his head. "I don't think Mr. Xiao has anything to do with our Fox Hunt."
"Then you should reflect on why your source of information is so terrible," Xiao Zheng said. "Don't you think that since Miss Sophia has entrusted me with her full authority, it's better for me to act as her representative. Is this the greatest recognition and trust for me? If I was just an outsider, do you think Miss Sophia would allow me to participate in this negotiation? "
Marshall was slightly taken aback. He then shook his head and said, "Miss Sophia trusts you, but it doesn't mean that you are one of the Fox Hunters. This was not a cause and effect relationship. My starting point is for the sake of unity and stability within the Fox Hunting Guild. I hope Mr Magistrate doesn't mind. "
The last sentence was Marshall's attitude.
After a while, Marshall knew that it was impossible to drive Xiao Zheng away. He did not want to waste his precious energy and time on pointless bickering.
"Don't waste time." Xiao Zheng took a puff and said calmly. "You didn't come to New York for a ride, did you?"
"Mr. Magistrate, you're a straightforward man." Marshall smiled. "Everyone knows. Miss Sophia was now in charge of both North America and Europe. This was a great challenge and difficulty for a female leader. Our Skeleton Corps is stationed in Africa, and we hope that we can share some of Miss Sophia's burden. On the one hand, it would relieve the pressure on Sofia. On the other hand, we can also make some contributions to stabilizing the Fox Hunters' territory. "
"Under Miss Sophia's control, do you think there are any irreparable problems in North America or Europe?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"No." Marshall shook his head calmly.
"Then why would you have such concerns?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"A person's energy is limited. Especially a woman, "Cang Long, who had been silent for a long time, said in a macho manner. "Lady Sophia is ill at the moment. I don't think she has the energy to manage so many territories. After all, the Fox Hunters' territory doesn't belong to Miss Sophia alone. It belongs to the entire Fox Hunters. "
"Then how do you plan to share Miss Sophia's burden?" Xiao Zheng asked with narrowed eyes.
"It's simple. We will provide manpower and be responsible for the main operations. Miss Sophia doesn't have to worry about anything, and she will get a handsome return, "Marshall explained. "After all, Miss Sophia's business is too big, and it's inevitable that she will be overwhelmed."
"Are you trying to rob me?" Xiao Zheng's eyes turned cold as he questioned.
"Mr. Magistrate, you've misunderstood." Cang Long shook his head. "Taking away Miss Sophia's personal belongings is robbery. But what we want is to borrow from the Fox Hunters' business. How can this be considered robbery? What's more, we're not taking it for free. We're giving them something in return. To Miss Sophia, this is like picking up gold from the ground. "
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "To me, this is no different from robbery."
"How you interpret it is up to you, Mr. Magistrate," Cang Long said with determination. "How to reply is up to Miss Sophia. Isn't that right? "
As he spoke, Cang Long's gaze fell on Sophia's face.
He was determined to get what he wanted this time. Otherwise, he would not go back so easily.
Marshall saw that Cang Long was losing his patience, so he added, "Miss Sophia. This is the best solution for you, or for us. You should know that the Fox Hunters doesn't belong to anyone. It's just a temporary matter. Moreover, I won't hide it from you. As our Skeleton Corps grows stronger, the business in Africa alone is no longer able to satisfy our brothers below. Isn't the purpose of the Fox Hunters to provide equal opportunities for all participants? You've become the ruler of Europe. It shouldn't be too difficult to offer some benefits to help the village alliance, right? "
Xiao Zheng could see it.
Cang Long was the good guy in this negotiation. Marshall was the good guy at the crucial moment. This was in line with their status in the Skeleton Corps. The two of them were putting on a good show, using both the carrot and the stick. Coupled with their powerful military support, the weaker ones would choose to play it safe and take a step back.
Sophia had also revealed her bottom line to Xiao Zheng before she came.
This negotiation was not a fight to the death. She was willing to make some concessions when necessary. As long as it was not too much, Sophia would consider it seriously.
Xiao Zheng knew Sophia's limit, but he would not reveal it to her for no reason. At the very least, he had to try his best to fight for Sophia's interests.
"North America is Miss Sophia's base. It's impossible for Miss Sophia to make any concessions, "Xiao Zheng said, enunciating each word. "As for Europe, we can discuss it. Just as Mr. Marshall said, we're all from the same sect, there's no need to fight over some petty interests. "
Slap!
Cang Long frowned and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Magistrate, do you think the Skeleton Corps is a bunch of beggars? Europe? You can't even control yourselves. Why should we go there? To be your suicide squad? "
Xiao Zheng's expression turned cold. "We'll only share our European territory with you if we give you face. If we don't give you face, don't even think about taking anything away. "
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere became extremely tense. Marshall and Cang Long's expressions flickered. They seemed to be completely infuriated!
