Chapter 1096: Negotiations
e was driven out because he used Han Dynasty copper coins.Outside, Chang'an Street was bustling with sunshine and traffic.Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, foreign trade has begun, and during the Tang Dy...I'm not particularly curious about Lu Cheng's mechanism for combining Jia.
While she was "tasting tea", she sent a large amount of data back to the server.
Unfortunately, she was not yet in a position of power and lacked the resources to quickly analyze human energy levels with precision.
However, it is clear that the ethereal race's assessment of this branch of humanity was in error.
01 must adjust the negotiation plan.
"General Lu, I originally intended to use a biological nature reserve in my possession as leverage to exchange for the rule of 【Currency】. Now, after analysis, I believe you're unlikely to agree."
"Oh" Lu Cheng was trying to move his joints, startled by the sound.
It seems that the Machine Collective is a rather pragmatic civilization. She doesn't mind putting everything out in the open.
"Executive, what do you think now"
Since the other party was straightforward, Lu Cheng might as well get to the point.
"Thinking is a unique ability of living beings. We do not possess such capability. General Lu can input his requirements and stakes, and I will output real-time analysis results for you."
01. Extend your hand to Lu Cheng.
When she lightly touched the sensor, Lu Cheng's spiritual energy seemed to be invited, arriving at a human-machine interactive interface.
(Note, you are in a negotiation. After it ends, the structure of the cards on the field or for each side will change based on the result.)
Real-time analysis
Li Cheng faced 01 and the server cluster behind her, as if he were a person standing before a gacha machine.
What you can win depends entirely on how many coins you put in.
Lu Cheng had never participated in such a guileless negotiation before.
Will machines really respond
Let's give it a try.
"Currency rules can bring great benefits to the alliance, saving resources exchange costs." Lu Cheng sent such a thought to the "gacha machine" before him.
(The calculation of currency interest is complete.
The calculation of the contribution of the Human race in quelling the Orc rebellion is complete.
The human contribution to calculating monetary rules has been successful.
Risk assessment completed.
.......）
"The Purifier welcomes the return of Humanity. According to the information you provided, you will gain [Unknown Habitable Protection Star Cluster] * 1 in this negotiation. You will lose [Currency Management]."
A voice, bearing the number "01", immediately echoed in Lu Cheng's mind.
It's kind of interesting.
If humans were merely helping to quell rebellions and implement monetary rules, without any other leverage, the transaction terms offered by the executive's server would be a star district card.
Then... why don't you try adding more
"We have a powerful Eastern nation behind us."
Lu Cheng played a card made of nothingness.
Calculation complete.
Due to limitations in communication and transportation of this generation, the possibility of a large-scale war between the edge world and the center world is approximately 0.0000162%.
This information is invalid, the negotiation results remain unchanged.
Uh.... as expected, the void deck doesn't work on a mechanical civilization.
The human race and the nations behind them have matching resource allocation capabilities and industrial capacity, and they want to retain monetary issuance rights within the alliance.
This Lu Cheng didn't lie.
Without real goods and logistical support, currency is just worthless paper.
Although only one card was played, the 【Monetary Unit】 could represent both the two immortal harbors of Baiyu Jing and the powerful mountain god of Dali. Over these past few years in Yan Kingdom, it has guaranteed that currency can indeed be exchanged for goods.
(Calculating...)
Calculation complete.
“The Mechanical Race preliminarily acknowledges the human race's energy capabilities and industrial capacity. Based on this information, although we can support the human race in piloting the unique resource [currency] in the southern border of the Alliance, because this rule will weaken the existing economic system of the Alliance, bring new risks to our race, and reduce our voice within the Alliance, the human race needs to pay equivalent benefits and provide corresponding guarantees.”
Lu Cheng, of course, knew that as the leader of the alliance, the mechanical body wouldn't easily allow new races to issue game rules.
As 01's analysis suggested, while the issuance of table-top currency benefits the alliance, why doesn't the mechanical body issue it itself
Unsafe, inefficient
Put yourself in Lu Cheng's shoes. If someone were to try and implement a seemingly beneficial rule on his desk, he would first assess the risks and his own potential gains. Once it became clear that things were not feasible, Lu Cheng wouldn't allow such a rule to become popular.
Therefore, the machine body believes that the human race can experiment with this monetary policy within the alliance, but it needs to provide guarantees.
However, Lu Cheng had already anticipated this situation and had gotten another card beforehand, so he continued to raise the bet.
"We can guarantee that the Xu Ling clan holds a dominant position in the alliance's transportation network. We have reached an agreement with them, and they will ensure the circulation of 【Currency】."
(Calculating...)
Calculation complete.
"The Xiuling race cannot provide any long-term guarantees, and the probability of them truly supporting humanity is 0%. In order to obtain monetary issuance rights, humans temporarily cooperated with the Xiuling race, which has actually led to increased instability in the alliance. We recommend that humanity immediately abandon cooperation with the Xiuling race and shift to benign competition."
The sound is very pleasant, but honestly, the content isn't very beautiful.
Lu Cheng took a sharp breath.
If the Mechanical Bodies had initially underestimated humanity, Lu Cheng now felt that they had actually underestimated the Mechanical Bodies themselves.......
Her analysis was spot on. Lu Cheng crushed the Illusory Spirit Clan with a single move, and then to obtain leverage over the Mechanical clan, he struck a deal with the Illusory Spirit Clan, exchanging support for...
To be honest, can this kind of support last
Lu Cheng himself doesn't believe it.
Now, she acknowledges the capabilities of humanity, but....she doesn't acknowledge the Void-forged cards, and she doesn't condone the temporary alliance between humans and the Spiritlings...
The "Gacha Girl" before me.......she only recognizes a fair exchange!
The balancing act was a ruse, but the other party didn't acknowledge it.
This is a bit tricky.
If she doesn't endorse the Voidling clan's assurance, Lu Cheng wouldn't be able to stop the Mech clan from issuing their own currency. At this rate of conversation, the two sides might only be able to wage a monetary war
After careful consideration, Lu Cheng decided to first determine a question.
"Executive Madam, I understand your concerns. The key is what kind of assurance do you want"
This time, 01 actually paused. Obviously, this is a problem that takes up a lot of computing power.
Five seconds later, she finally spoke.
“The best guarantee is practice. We will participate in running the currency rules for six hundred rounds, proving that the currency you issue is beneficial and harmless to my tribe and the alliance. At that time, we will have a comprehensive discussion with you on the ownership of minting rights based on the results.”
"Good!" Lu Cheng was a practical person.
The best guarantee is practice, and Lu Cheng didn't have any objections.
It's meaningless to play cards without any strategy.
Now there is only one problem.
"Could the officer please tell me, how will the final outcome be considered favorable It can't just rely on verbal statements, can it"
"It's simple, living things and machines aren't natural friends, but we have a natural enemy. Four thousand six hundred years ago, the human race's greatest empire fell to the plague clan. And as we speak, Purifier A6 District fantasies of mechanical giants collapsing at 74.95%. We've drawn eighty defense lines and are putting up a full defense, while the bartering system within the alliance has brought about considerable losses and inconvenience. We will abide by your currency rules and trade with the Eastern merchants. These supplies will be given to one of the defense lines [Cybertron]. The result will be quite obvious."
......
......
The Purifier Alliance, A6 Constellation, the renowned Cybertronian defense line is under a joint assault from the Northern Plague Clan and the Phantasmal Swarm.
On the planet, a raging wind howled, amidst shattered and broken ruins.
A giant insect reared its head from the wreckage of a machine and then darted into the cockpit.
This wreckage... is the infamous Purifier Corps, Cybertron. Transformer Commander [Megatron]. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Three months ago, the Decepticon “Scourge” army killed 80% of Cybertron's breeding lifeforms.
The Decepticon army has almost lost all individuals with strong logical thinking abilities. A group of missing machines was surrounded in the East Plague Zone, and their fate was tragic.
They were unable to fight their way out of the horde of zombies and jump bugs.
This also marks the complete annihilation of the Transformers trading card series...
By now, only four mechanical fortresses and three void conduits remained on Cybertron.
Purifiers need to immediately coordinate internally, bringing in massive amounts of weaponry and troops to guard this planet that is burning fiercely....r the people, and what's the labor fee for the lord himself"I have nothing to report."Miss Fannah, the legendary spellcasting is powerful.
