Governor Zhou was well aware of Governor Bai's thoughts. However, he did not expose Governor Bai's intentions as he still wished to work with Governor Bai.
Furthermore, what he had said was the truth. Since the Master had decided on something, there was no way they could change his mind.
Therefore, even if he agreed to it, it would be useless. Furthermore, he would never agree to it!
"Governor Zhou, is there really no other way?" Governor Bai asked helplessly.
Initially, he had not been too attached to the benefits. However, the Cheng Family had given him hope, which made him feel as though he had suddenly gained a lot of wealth.
However, he had not expected the Cheng Family to take back all of his wealth in the next instant.
Therefore, he was unwilling to give up and hoped that he could try his best to get it back.
However, judging from City Lord Zhou's attitude, it was almost impossible for him to do so.
"Governor Bai, there's nothing I can do. This matter cannot be changed. I'll say it again, if Governor Bai doesn't agree to this, there's no way we can continue working together! "Governor Zhou said.
"Sigh! Since things have come to this, I can't force it. I believe Master Cheng has his reasons for doing this.
I can accept Master Cheng's suggestion. Does that mean we can still work together? "Governor Bai was extremely disappointed.
There was no hope and no expectation. The Cheng Family had given him hope, but it had instantly destroyed all of his expectations. His heart was filled with sorrow.
However, he finally understood what was going on.
Master Cheng was indeed not a simple man. It was obvious that he had planned this from the start.
It was laughable that he had thought that the Cheng Family would give him such a huge pie. It seemed like he had been celebrating too early.
Now, he understood that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Since things had come to this, there was no way he could gain any benefits from the mission. However, he had not thought about how much he could gain from the Cheng Family's mission. After all, he still needed to attract enough people into the White City Alliance.
As long as there were enough people in the White City Alliance, he would still be able to earn an unimaginable amount of wealth.
Therefore, it did not matter if he could not gain any benefits from the Cheng Family's mission! After all, he had other ways to gain more benefits.
"Alright, since Governor Bai has agreed to it, let me talk about the next point!" Governor Zhou spoke again.
"What? There's more? "Governor Bai was starting to panic.
This Cheng Family Head really had a lot of content to adjust.
However, this time, he didn't think that the Cheng Family Head would be easy to deal with. Moreover, he didn't believe that the Cheng Family would give him any benefits or surprises this time.
He even felt that his heart couldn't take the blow that the Cheng Family had given him.
"Not much, just the last bit!" City Lord Zhou said with a smile.
"Alright then, please tell us about it, Governor Zhou!" Governor Bai seemed a little nervous.
He was really afraid that this mysterious Patriarch Cheng would give him another critical blow. He was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to withstand it.
"It's like this. Our Patriarch suggested that if we cooperate, every time the White City Alliance accepts a quest, the White City Alliance must give the Cheng Clan resources or Spiritual Stones equivalent to the reward of the quest!"
"What!" Governor Bai was so flustered that he almost fell off the stone bench.
He simply didn't dare to believe that Patriarch Cheng would actually make such a request. What's more, they wanted resources that were equivalent to the mission reward. This was too ridiculous!
"City Lord Zhou, did I hear you correctly? You want the White City Alliance to give the Cheng Clan Spiritual Stones equivalent to the reward of the mission reward? " Governor Bai wanted to confirm if there was something wrong with his ears. Otherwise, how could he have heard such a ridiculous thing?
"City Lord Bai, you heard me correctly. That's exactly what I said!" City Lord Zhou nodded his head.
"City Lord Zhou, I think that I can accept the problems that you mentioned earlier. However, don't you think that this is a little too ridiculous?
First of all, we are cooperating. Even if we don't say that we are cooperating, we are helping the Cheng Clan relieve some of the pressure from the mission.
Logically speaking, the Cheng Clan should be giving us a portion of the reward.
But now, the Cheng Family Head wants us to hand over so many resources to the Cheng Family. Isn't this unreasonable? "Governor Bai retorted.
He felt that not only did Patriarch Cheng make him feel helpless, but he was also being ridiculous.
Had he gone crazy from thinking about wealth? He had already been very kind to the Cheng Clan when he had given in to them.
In the end, not only did the Cheng Family not thank him, but they even proposed to give the Cheng Family resources equivalent to the reward of the mission. It would not make sense no matter where he took them, right?
"City Lord Bai, since we've come to this, let's not beat around the bush and be frank.
That's right.
Is Governor Bai really proposing such an alliance to help the Cheng Family? "Governor Zhou asked with a faint smile on his face.
Although he had not figured out Governor Bai's true intentions, he still did not think that the White City Alliance was such a good person. They did not care about the benefits and were only here to help the Cheng Clan and the mission enforcers.
Therefore, Governor Bai was definitely discussing the cooperation with him for the sake of the benefits.
Furthermore, if the White City Alliance did not make any profits, how could they still call it a cooperation?
Since it was a cooperation, both parties would definitely benefit from it. However, Governor Bai made it sound as if the White City Alliance was really here to help the Cheng Clan. This made him very unhappy.
"Erm, of course it's for a win-win situation! Since it's a cooperation, of course there will be benefits for both of us! "Governor Bai was stunned and laughed awkwardly.
He was no saint. Why would he come all the way here to help the Cheng Clan?
If it wasn't for the benefits, no one would be here to discuss cooperation with them!
"If I'm not mistaken, Governor Bai is hoping to use the cooperation with the Cheng Clan to create missions in the White City Alliance to attract more people, am I right?" Governor Zhou asked straightforwardly.
Since he had already put it this way, there was no need for him to show any mercy.
After all, they were only discussing cooperation for the sake of mutual benefits. If he did not point this out, there would be no way for them to continue their cooperation.
Only by revealing the truth and letting everyone know the other party's true intentions would they be able to continue their cooperation!
