    "So that's what happened."

    After listening to Prince Mustafa¡¯s story, Mabond pondered deliberately.

    In this short period of time, Mabond¡¯s reaction made Prince Mustafa nervous.

    Yes, for this prince, he had to be nervous about Mabond's reaction.  You know, he was very worried that he would not be able to achieve the purpose of his trip.

    " Moreover, for the Ottomans, apart from their secret ally the Song Empire, they really could not find a more suitable choice for their gang leader.

    Therefore, it is no wonder that Prince Mustafa is so nervous.

    "So what kind of assistance do you need? Funds? Weapons? Or other supplies?" Mabond's performance was very good, but he would not go too far.  So, when Prince Mustafa's tension reached its peak, Mabond finally spoke.

    Phew!

    Not bad, no rejection.

    After hearing what Mabande said, Prince Mustafa breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

    It can be heard from Ma Bond¡¯s words that he did not reject himself, so this is a good start.

    ¡°If Mabond refuses, he really won¡¯t be able to say anything else.

    "Now we still have a big gap in our finances. If possible, I hope the empire can provide a loan of 30 million gold cheneys. At the same time, we also need to get 30,000 weapons and 30,000 weapons in the short term.  The armor"

    Prince Mustafa quickly told what the Ottomans needed.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    There are really a lot of things needed, but this stuff is really no problem for the empire.

    Don¡¯t mention providing these.  Even ten times more is no problem.

    Even, there is no need to supply goods from America at all.  This can be solved here in the Cairo Concession.

    Of course, it is impossible for Mabond to say these words to Prince Mustafa.

    He can only think about it in his own mind.

    But it seems that the other prince's reaction is still very good, just what he hoped.

    If that¡¯s the case, then what¡¯s the problem?

    The empire has hoarded a lot of supplies in the Cairo Concession.

    For example, the weapons and armor that Prince Mustafa needs, and even the food that the army needs to consume, are all very sufficient in the concession.

    It can be said.  There was no pressure to supply the Ottomans.

    But the question is, why did the Empire agree so easily?

    ¡° Moreover, now that Prince Mustafa and even the Ottomans have this need, it just gives the empire an opportunity to enter the Arab region, doesn¡¯t it?

    You must know that the empire established a concession here in Cairo in order to one day enter the Arab region and even Asia Minor.

    However, considering that there are too many things going on in the empire now.  Energy is also too scattered.

    At the same time, the Ottoman Empire was at its peak, and it would be very unwise to confront the Ottomans at this time.

    Because of the above two reasons, the empire only established a concession in Cairo and did not take any action in Asia.

    But now it¡¯s different. The Ottomans are financially empty.  I have already reached Mabond.

    Therefore, as the governor of the concession and a senior official of the Imperial Military Department.

    Of course he thought of some things that only the Chinese senior officials of the empire knew, and the plans for the future development of the empire.

    If he doesn¡¯t take advantage of it, he¡¯ll be really sorry for himself.

    Um.  Although the empire has no clear intention to enter Asia, this does not prevent it from obtaining some treaties and benefits that are beneficial to the empire.

    Make some initial favorable arrangements for the empire to enter Asia in the future.

    Thinking of this.  Mabond pondered again.

    Prince Mustafa was once again disturbed by Mabond's behavior.

    For Mabande, he certainly would not let Mustafa get what the Ottomans wanted so easily.

    At the same time, he quickly started thinking in his own mind, thinking about what he should do to maximize the interests of the empire.

    Although there are some weird things among the Chinese genetic people under Zhao Hongyu.

    But it is undeniable that most people of Chinese descent are supporters of Chinese chauvinism in their hearts.

      Therefore, for these Chinese descendants, as long as the imperial Chinese descendants can stand on top of the world and become a noble race.

    They no longer care about what methods they use or what consequences they will have on other races.

    And Ma Bangde happens to be one of the Chinese people in the empire who strongly supports this view.

    In other words, Mabond is also a Chinese chauvinist.

    Therefore, Mustafa begged Mabond, so how could he not pay a heavy price?

    It is impossible for Prince Mustafa to know this clearly.

    "You need a lot of things, and the loan is not a small amount. Even if the empire agrees to the 30,000 pieces of armor and weapons, it will take a lot of time to transport them from the Americas. Not to mention that we can negotiate here.  After that, we need to send someone to deliver a message to the empire."

    What Mabond said is very true.

    Mustafa is also very clear about this.

    However, at the beginning, Prince Mustafa was still a little worried about this.

    But as soon as Mabond finished speaking, the prince's face suddenly looked much better.

    Although Prince Mustafa is not a very qualified successor to the empire, he is not a brain-dead idiot either.

    From Mabond¡¯s words, he has already heard some beneficial information.

    That¡¯s what Mabond said: ¡®After he has settled the negotiations here, he will send a letter to America.¡¯ The meaning of this is self-evident.

    This shows that for the issues he requested, Mabond can make the decision here and does not need to report to the empire and let the empire make the decision.

    Of course, it can be seen from now on.  The power of the governor of the Imperial Concession was still very great.

    But think about it, the empire now has three concessions.  They are all far away from mainland America.  Therefore, the governor in the concession has full decision-making power on many matters.

    The purpose is to avoid some difficult things that may not be reported to the local area in time.

    However, the governors of the concessions are carefully selected, so the empire does not have to worry about the governors of the concessions doing things that are detrimental to the mainland.

    Besides, these Chinese genetic people that Zhao Hongyu cultivated through the virtual world now maintain more than 99% loyalty to him.

    With this kind of loyalty, the chance of betrayal is almost non-existent.

    So, there is no need to worry about such trouble.

    But no matter what.  Mabond has such decision-making power, which is a good thing for Mustafa.

    ¡°However, Mabond also raised a very serious question.

    That is, it may be a little too late in terms of time.

    This is a rather troublesome matter.

    You know, the Serbian uprising in northern Ottoman territory is now in full swing.  Because of the increasingly violent violence, the entire northern region controlled by the Ottoman Empire.  Everything was in complete turmoil.

    Led by the Serbs, people in Bulgaria and Macedonia joined the uprising.

    If measures are not taken to suppress this uprising as soon as possible, the Ottoman Empire may even collapse.

    Therefore, time is very important to the Ottomans.

    But according to Mabond¡¯s statement, it happens over and over again.  It will take at least a year.

    Who knows what it will be like in a year. The Ottoman Empire may be in chaos.

    So, Prince Mustafa also started to worry.

    Seeing Prince Mustafa¡¯s frown, Mabond laughed secretly in his heart.

    "Young man, why don't you just fall into my trap now?"

    What about the prince?  It's just that the person who was born was not good enough to be reincarnated.

    But in front of me, why don¡¯t you just follow my plan obediently?

    Ma Bond thought in a very wicked way.

    "What should we do? Is there any way to solve it?"

    Thinking about it over and over again.  In the end, Prince Mustafa could only focus on Mabande, looking at him with prayer and hope in his eyes, hoping to hear some words from him that could solve the problem.

    Fortunately, Mabande did not disappoint Mustafa. He nodded in Mustafa's expectant eyes.

    "There are no solutions, but what can you provide us?"

      Mustafa could not open his mouth to tell him the conditions that Halafa, his father, had told him before he left, but was interrupted by Mabond raising his hand.

    Mabond continued: "Your needs are not small. If we agree to you, we will also have to pay a big price. Therefore, whether this thing can be accomplished depends on your sincerity. So, I hope  You can think it over carefully before answering me."

    The meaning is obvious, that is, to tell Mustafa that even if they start negotiations on borrowing money and providing weapons, armor, and supplies, the price offered by the empire may not be low.

    "If Prince Mustafa of the Ottomans didn't have the conditions to take advantage of him, then this matter would probably be very mysterious.

    There is no fool here who can hear this.

    Although the empire and the Ottomans are secretly allies, even if the allies provide help, it is not free.

    Everyone understands this very well.

    After careful consideration, Prince Mustafa took a deep breath, and then said to Mabond with a serious and solemn expression: "The conditions here are very favorable, but I don't know if you can make the decision here. At the same time,  Meet our requirements in the short term to provide weapons, armor and supplies."

    Mabond smiled, very easily.

    "Don't worry, Your Highness, I can definitely make the decision on this matter. And I also have the ability to provide you with the things you need. What I want to hear now is the price you offer"

    The negotiation started like this.
