Wang Mingming looked at Guo Jialiang and said softly.
"I'm sorry, but your idea is probably impossible to realize, and we will not agree to your request to enter the core area fortress. If you want to continue talking, please leave now. There's no need to waste your time on this matter."
Hearing Wang Mingming's words with such certainty, Guo Jialiang knew that their first idea was impossible to realize.
He then exchanged glances with his assistants and made a decision immediately.
Since the first step cannot be achieved, there is no need to continue to provoke them.
Today, they are fighting for better living conditions for all refugees. The first negotiation objective is the best way for them, and if that cannot be achieved, then they can only settle for the next best option.
So Guo Jialiang sighed softly and continued in an earnest tone.
"Alright, since you disagree with our views, could you please be lenient and let us in from the other fortresses? After all, so many of us are stuck outside, without even the most basic survival guarantee. Are you just going to watch so many of us die one by one?"
Wang Mingming couldn't help but sneer after hearing his words.
"I'm sorry, but you have only yourself to blame for all the consequences. You are well aware of your own actions. Since you did something or did nothing, you should have expected this outcome."
So there's no need to talk to us about what we did wrong; it has nothing to do with us.
Our purpose in today's negotiations is to hear your terms, not to hear you criticize us!
Do you understand? I don't want to hear another word from you that could provoke us.
Guo Jialiang hadn't expected the young man in front of him to be so aggressive, completely overwhelming them in terms of presence.
He could only feel cold sweat dripping down his back and forehead, making the upcoming negotiations even more difficult.
"I apologize for my previous remarks. We are not criticizing you, but fighting for our own space to live."
"So could you please agree to let us in, even if we talk to the other fortresses? It's really important to us, please."
Guo Jialiang felt like a beggar on the street, trying his best to lower himself so that they would feel pity for him.
However, they clearly overlooked the extent of the harm their previous actions had caused them.
They had no idea what Lu Yuan truly represented in these people's minds.
They used to think that Lu Yuan was a pretty good person, at least he was considerate of them.
However, it was later discovered that Lu Yuan's assistance was tiered. He provided almost everything he had to the core members, while for the outsiders, although Lu Yuan provided them with enough food, supplies, and living conditions, it was far less than what the people in the core area received.
Therefore, they felt a sense of unfairness, feeling that Lu Yuan was treating them differently, and they also wanted to live a peaceful life like the people in the core area.
However, they clearly overlooked the fact that the core members had only been with Lu Yuan for a short time and had not created much value for him. Therefore, how Lu Yuan treated them depended entirely on their contributions.
After Wang Mingming and Chen Zhongzheng talked for a while, Chen Zhongzheng nodded slightly.
"Okay, I can agree to this, but we can't guarantee that they will let you in. Because the various fortresses are now governed separately, we can't interfere with their internal management. We will inform them about this, but we can't do it in person. I hope you understand."
Upon hearing Chen Zhongzheng's words, Guo Jialiang's face immediately lit up with joy.
However, it seems premature to be happy before other fortresses have taken over.
He suppressed the hint of surprise on his face, trying his best to appear calm. After a moment of contemplation, he also posed the third question they had prepared.
"Commander Chen, look, we're homeless now, and all our supplies are inside the fortress. The fortress is completely flooded, and there's a super storm going on. We have no way of getting our things back."
So, could you perhaps provide us with some material and food assistance? Don't worry, once we resume production, we will immediately repay you in kind.
Upon hearing his words, Chen Zhongzheng immediately and firmly waved his hand.
"That's enough. You've made far too many demands. We're sorry, but we can't meet your requirements. We've already agreed to your previous terms. If you have nothing else to say, you can leave now."
Seeing that Chen Zhongzheng had given him the order to leave without hesitation, Guo Jialiang knew that their negotiations this time would have yielded virtually no results.
It was almost as if he hadn't come at all. After all, Chen Zhongzheng had only promised to inform the other fortresses about this matter. Whether the other fortresses were willing to accept it was not something that the other party had agreed to in this negotiation.
Thinking of this, a new idea suddenly flashed across Guo Jialiang's face, so he quickly spoke up.
"Commander Chen, wait a moment."
He had already gotten up to leave the town when he heard Guo Liang surrender himself, so he kissed a frowning man and turned to look at him.
