Shen Wuzheng said, "Shen Tu Tai is also unwilling to lower himself to seek refuge."
Shang Ruyi frowned, "What do you mean?"
Shen Wuzheng glanced at her again before saying, "Just now, you said they 'have no place to settle', which hit their sore spot. This current group indeed has no place to settle, which means they have come seeking refuge out of desperation, in a completely disadvantageous position. In this case, we can say their value drops significantly, having neither battle merits nor support, akin to surrendered troops."
"...!"
Hearing this, Shang Ruyi snapped back to her senses a little, "I, I said something wrong."
Shen Wuzheng said softly, "Negotiation is just like this, you must constantly devalue the other party, forcing them to create their own value, only then can you profit. You didn't say anything wrong."
It was clear this statement was meant to console, and Shang Ruyi let out a bitter laugh.
