Chapter 795 Overturning the table
...
In the conference hall
The five members of the Vinsmoke family waited quietly for the man sitting across the round table to speak.
"Ding dong! Ding dong!"
In the silence, the hour and minute hands of the clock on the wall coincided at twelve o'clock, and the pendulum swung, making a crisp sound.
"clatter!"
Captain Gel slowly put down the teacup in his hand, and Jiazhi couldn't help but sit up straighter, his forehead was unknowingly covered with sweat.
Although the man in front of me was a little out of tune, the damn sense of relaxation on his body, no! It should be said that it was the majesty of a superior!
In short, this kind of calmness and composure is something that most people can never fake, not to mention the respect that the two bodyguards behind him, who looked very strong at first glance, inadvertently revealed in their eyes when they looked at him.
This is also the reason why Jiazhi would rather suspect that "Tezoro" has a mental problem and never suspect that he is a fake.
"Let's serve the food first. It's already lunch time! You must be hungry after sitting all morning."
"Uh? Fortunately, we're not hungry yet."
He didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, he only heard the word "eat". Jiazhi was now worried about his tens of thousands of ambushes, so he had no mind to eat.
"How about we talk about the matter first, Mr. Tezulo?"
"You are not hungry, but I am."
Gel waved his hand and rejected Jiazhi's opinion bluntly.
"Um... this is... okay."
The sudden strength caught Jiazhi off guard.
"Moshimoshi~"
Fuzifu took out his Den Den Mushi, and soon a doll came in pushing a food cart.
"Come! Let's eat together!"
Gel gestured to everyone to sit down and eat, and then he began to eat with relish.
"You guys can eat too, you're welcome!"
"OK…"
Faced with a table full of delicious food, Jiazhi and his companions just picked up the cutlery in front of them and fiddled with it, but rarely put any food into their mouths. It was unclear whether they were on guard against being poisoned, or because they had just said they were not hungry and so were embarrassed to pick up their chopsticks.
Gel was not interested in asking whether the food was not to his taste. He just thought that as members of the noble North Sea royal family, they had their own pride!
"Hiccup~"
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Gel burped comfortably.
Accompanied by the king, princess and three princes of the Kingdom of Germa 66, everything in this meal tasted very high-class.
"Why aren't you eating anymore? Are you full?"
Gel asked while chewing the chicken leg in his hand.
"Yes, I am full. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Tezulo."
Kaji put down his cutlery and nodded in reply.
"Now that we're full, let's talk business!"
"Since we have already agreed on this, I believe that you, Brother Jiazhi, will not break your promise!"
Captain Gel came up with a smile on his face and put a tall hat on Jiazhi.
"Um... I was just about to discuss this with you..."
Before Jiazhi could finish his words, he was interrupted forcefully by Gol.
"No need to discuss this further! Haven't we already discussed this? I can postpone the plan of handing over the Germa battle suits and forcibly recruiting Germa 66 for a year or two."
Jiazhi's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself that what was supposed to come had finally come.
"Understood. Please rest assured, Master Tezulo, I haven't forgotten our agreement!"
Jiazhi took out a golden "can" from his arms, gently placed it on the table, and continued.
"This is the combat uniform I developed for Golden City."
"Huh? Let me see."
Fuzifu used his great strength to create a miracle. He turned the table and moved the thing in front of Captain Gel.
Captain Geller took the hot towel handed to him by Hancock and wiped the grease off his mouth.
"Is this the same combat suit you guys use?"
He grabbed the golden can, weighed it in his hand, and tossed it casually.
"Um... this one is custom-made for Golden City. Its performance is slightly different from our specially made combat uniform, but it won't affect its use at all..."
Kaji answered vaguely.
"Oh? What are the specific differences? Please explain it to me in detail! Explain it clearly!"
Ger narrowed his eyes and looked up at Jiazhi.
"Um...this..."
"This combat suit does not have any attribute enhancement function. Its effect on strengthening the body is similar to that of a special combat suit..."
"How much difference is there?"
Gur demanded.
"Well, this... is not much different..."
"How much difference?"
"Um... about... about 30%..."
Jiazhi was still hesitant at first, trying to fool the other party, but when he saw that the other party was not buying it, he had to tell the truth.
"Oh, it's only 30% worse, which means it still has about 70% of the performance of your special combat suits. That's not bad. I'll find someone to try it out."
Ger nodded with satisfaction.
"Um... that's not 30% off... it's 70% off... only 30%..."
Jiazhi said awkwardly.
"What the hell."
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
Ger immediately applauded.
"Hahaha! My goodness, a white item without any enchantments and a +15 divine item, you call this similar?"
Kaji scratched his head tactically.
Although he didn't quite understand what free equipment and plus 15 were, anyone who wasn't an idiot could analyze what Gel wanted to express based on the situation.
"So, you're given ten years to research and develop, and the battle suit you hand over to me is a severely emasculated version of the Golden City? Am I right in understanding this, Xiaozhi?"
"I…"
Jiazhi's forehead was covered with sweat and his eyes were evasive.
"If you do this, this matter will be very difficult to handle!"
After saying this line, Gel took the lead and leaned forward to hold down the table.
"Um... Sir... what are you doing?"
Hancock and Fuzzif both had question marks on their faces.
“Hahaha…it’s okay, it’s just an instinctive reaction. I just predicted that he would flip the table over.”
Ger smiled sheepishly.
"Huh? Overturn the table? How dare you!"
Hancock and Fuzzif turned their heads at the same time and looked at Jiazhi with cold eyes.
"No! I didn't!"
Jiazhi looked innocent and shook his head anxiously.
Gel stood up as if nothing had happened and brushed off the non-existent dust on his clothes.
"Okay, okay, I was just joking with you, there's no need to be so nervous, Brother Jiazhi."
"Yes, yes, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, turning the table over or anything like that, I really never intended to do that."
Jiazhi looked aggrieved on the surface, but he couldn't help cursing in his heart. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't contact his tens of thousands of clone soldiers, he wouldn't have to endure such humiliation. He had to overturn the table of this bastard!
(?? ?′Д`?)?彡┻━┻
Dry!
"Haha, Brother Jiazhi, we are old friends who have been working together happily for ten years. Naturally, I am willing to trust you."
Upon hearing this, Jiazhi couldn't help but twitch his mouth: You are happy, damn it, thousands of Germa soldiers are taken away every year, do you know how I have been living for the past ten years?
Germa 66 is having a hard time defending the North Sea, let alone expanding its territory. Hasn't he noticed that his snail fleet hasn't been fully staffed yet? How can you tell that I'm happy?
