Chapter 69: Traitorous Ghosts and Foot-washing Water (Part 2)
Li Xiao looked at the Bretianu brothers "suspiciously", with "bafflement" clearly written on his face. In short, Li Xiao was confused in the eyes of these brothers. This undoubtedly made them even more happy.
The reason is also very simple. Whether in politics or business, people who do not understand the situation are undoubtedly the easiest to fall into. If you do not understand the situation, you will not be able to make a correct assessment, you will not be able to accurately estimate your own value, and you will be easily fooled.
It's easy to fall into a trap if you cheat.
The Bretianu brothers naturally hope that Li Xiao can deceive as much as possible, so that they can easily achieve their goals with a small and big approach.
It's just that Li Xiao is not really confused, but pretending to be confused. So these two brothers are really playing tricks on Guan Gong.
"Gentlemen," Li Xiao became increasingly impatient, "I don't know you. Tonight is the first time we meet. I don't know who you are or why you need help..."
"I only know that you broke into my apartment inexplicably, said some incomprehensible words, and made unknown demands! This is very unreasonable, unruly and disrespectful. Now, I hope you leave!"
With that said, Li Xiao stood up and pointed at the door, making a gesture of invitation.
This naturally caught the Bretianu brothers off guard. They didn't understand why Li Xiao wasn't interested in the help they needed at all? Why didn't they ask why? This was too incompetent and inconvenient.
Is it a favor?
Li Xiao actually knew very well what kind of help these two people wanted him to provide. They just valued his so-called good relationship with Perrier and Pelleni, and wanted to use the back door to persuade the French government to provide more and better support to Wallachia.
Strong support.
But Li Xiao won't let them get what they want. It's not that he doesn't want to help, but he doesn't want to help without getting any benefits. Doesn't asking for help require giving gifts? How can there be any reason to ask for help with nothing?
Of course, Li Xiao won't really help. How can he let the Romanians get what they want? He just wants to defraud some benefits and mess up the plan of the Romanians.
"Mr. Diomede, we..."
The Bretianu brothers still wanted to explain, but Li Xiao's "impatience" had reached its peak. He pointed at the door again and emphasized: "Please leave, I want to rest!"
The Bretianu brothers were almost driven out in embarrassment. When they were kicked out, they were very frustrated and discouraged because they found that they seemed to have made a mistake.
Yes, this pair of scheming brothers were actually playing tricks on each other from the very beginning. Although there were quite a few people kneeling and licking around Li Xiao in the salon before, it wasn’t that they couldn’t squeeze in. It was just that they felt that even if
Even if he squeezed in, he wouldn't have any advantage among the crowd, and he wouldn't be able to leave a deep impression on Li Xiao.
The two brothers pay the most attention to efficiency and cost-effectiveness in their work, and insist on getting the best results with the smallest investment. Therefore, after seeing "guests coming like clouds" around Li Xiao, they decisively gave up the idea of kneeling and licking him immediately, and instead
I deliberately waited until Li Xiao returned to the hotel and was alone and late at night before paying a surprise visit.
Moreover, he also wanted to create a strong character of caring about the country and the people, making Li Xiao think that they were doing everything for Wallachia, and that they worked tirelessly for Wallachia. Such a good impression would not only greatly increase their
The impression they share makes Li Xiao feel more relaxed when bidding. After all, people tend to sympathize with and like public servants who sacrifice themselves for the public good and work tirelessly. This kind of hard-working personality has made them take a lot of credit before.
cheap.
It's just that today, their tricks are completely useless to the time traveler Li Xiao. No matter how realistic and contagious their tricks are, they can't impress Li Xiao. These two guys can't hide it from the mirror of history and what they did to them.
Li Xiao's behavior and character are very clear. Li Xiao can't be polite to anyone, he will only kill without mercy, and there is no reason to let it go.
"What's going on with this kid?" Dimitri was confused. He looked at Li Xiao's door, his face full of shock and anger, "Too arrogant, too disrespectful, and too disrespectful to us.
Does Guiya take it seriously? Who does he think he is? A French prince!"
Jan Constantine was also very depressed and angry, but he was deeper than his brother and knew better the law of the jungle of international relations - the law of the jungle is as simple as the law of the jungle.
So he understands why Li Xiao is so crazy and arrogant. Anyone whose motherland is a great power and whose background is deep can certainly be treated as nothing.
"Calm down, don't we just want him to be crazy? The crazier he is, the less he takes us seriously, the more powerful he is," Jan Constantine comforted him. "In the same way, the more he can provide us with
help!"
Dimitri said bitterly: "The words are so true, but this is too irritating. Our brothers came to the door so sincerely and kicked them out without saying a word. What kind of humanity is this? You are not a thing anymore.
Bar?"
Yang Constantine smiled bitterly and said: "This is what I'm afraid of too. I'm worried that this kid will be much more difficult to deal with than we expected. He is the kind of ruthless character who doesn't let go of the rabbit before he sees it!"
"What!" Dimitri was startled and said in surprise: "You mean he is the kind of person who will do anything without seeing any benefits..."
Jan Constantine nodded slowly: "Otherwise, there is no need for him to go so far. It doesn't matter if he listens to what we say. The worst he can do is not agree, but he has no intention of even listening to us. Why? Because?
We didn't show sincerity. Now I think of what he said before. Visiting late at night must be sincere. What kind of sincerity? Isn't it obvious!"
Dimitri fell into deep thought, and then suddenly said: "It seems so. No, that's what happened!"
Then the two brothers looked at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time. They were really self-defeating this time. The pretense of visiting late at night was nothing to them!
"But that's okay," Jan Constantine sighed. "At least you know what his temper is. You can bribe him and it will be easier to deal with. As long as you meet his requirements, you can naturally say anything."
But Dimitri was not as optimistic as he was, and said distressedly: "But look at his virtue, which can make people angry to death, and it is clear that he is greedy. How much does it cost to satisfy him!"
Jan Constantine nodded and said: "So we can't be anxious for the time being, let alone be reckless. Let's take a look first! Didn't he come to Wallachia to invest? Let's see what he wants to do, and then we can
