Time Travel: I am a Warlord in Doomsday America

"Oh? What do you want to exchange for it?" Maggie adjusted her expression and asked with a smile.

Negotiation is a science. Expressing your desire for the other party to join your destiny camp too quickly may backfire.

Maggie talked to Richard at a leisurely pace. Before Richard could answer, she said, "Let's go inside and talk. This is the community we just helped develop. You can take a look around."

Richard was stunned for a moment, and when he realized what was happening, he immediately agreed: "Okay...Okay."

A group of people from the kingdom followed Maggie into the community. Alan, who had been watching, came to Maggie at the right time and followed silently.

"Alan?" Maggie asked, frowning.

"I'll see what's going on." Alan replied calmly without any embarrassment.

Maggie didn't say much when she saw this, but just let Alan follow her. She was already used to Alan's strong style.

As everyone walked along the artificial pool, Maggie asked Richard, "How big is your community? Is it bigger than the community we support?"

Richard was still a little nervous, but he was also trying to grasp the key points in Maggie's words. The words "we" and "support" made him even more panicked.

"Our community was a school before the disaster. It occupies a larger area than your community and is not far from the beach. We grow some fruits and vegetables and can also fish."

Richard did not hide the rich resources of his community at all. After all, wealth cannot be hidden, and Negan also knows this. Now Negan belongs to the Alexandria community, and the other party has sophisticated weapons in their hands. If you don't negotiate with the other party early, it will be difficult to negotiate if someone comes to your door.

"School? It's pretty good!" Maggie looked reminiscent.

"It's really good." Alan also showed a thoughtful expression.

Richard glanced at Alan, not taking the young girl's words seriously.

Maggie didn't continue the topic, but played hard to get, waiting for Richard to ask questions.

Soon everyone arrived at Maggie's house, and Glenn and two residents in charge of logistics made some coffee for everyone.

Everyone sat on the sofa in the living room, and Maggie waited for coffee silently without saying a word.

Finally, Richard couldn't stand the silence anymore, so he asked directly, "Our people said that the Savior Church was defeated. Was it you who did it?"

Maggie nodded calmly and said, "Yes, we were originally here to peacefully promote the Destiny Front, but the people of the Savior Hall made some mistakes, and they have paid the price."

"The Destiny Position?" Richard was a little confused. He only learned from the people who came back that it was a larger force that defeated the Savior Hall.

"Yes, we have liberated Zouzhou and are now moving eastward to help all survivors return to civilization," said Maggie.

Helping is not without cost, and Richard, as an adult, is well aware of the implications. But now that Maggie has said it, it is clear that he needs to make his position clear.

As for the kingdom not wanting to help, Richard does not have the authority or the courage to say so. Only Ezekiel in the kingdom community can do so.

"I understand. So what does it cost to join your forces?" Richard continued to ask with gritted teeth.

It was obvious that Maggie wanted Kingdom to join, but Richard could only control the progress of the Q&A session and continue asking questions.

Again, Richard can only do things within his authority.

"Abide by our order system, recognize our principles and beliefs, and we will be responsible for providing security and technical support," said Maggie.

Richard wanted to ask more questions, but Maggie saw his hesitation and knew that this man was no longer the leader of the kingdom community, so she chose to return the topic to the transaction.

"By the way, what do you want to exchange this time?" Maggie asked suddenly.

Richard was stunned for a moment, then said: "Everything we bring can be given to your community for free. The king hopes to establish friendship with your community."

"King?" Maggie raised her eyebrows. Could it be that this community has already started feudal rule? This is not easy to deal with.

"Calling you that is just a way of showing respect. Our leader is someone who deserves respect." Richard realized that Maggie might misunderstand, and immediately defended himself.

"Well, take your things back. We are not short of supplies. Also, your matter is beyond my authority right now. You can leave your address and we will communicate later."

Maggie said without letting anyone know.

Richard's expression suddenly became depressed. Has the negotiation failed? But...why?

He had no idea that what the Destiny Front wanted to establish was a modern civilized order, or even a more superior society. The leader of a community with a king was likely to be a hindrance to the Destiny Front.

"this......"

In the end, Richard honestly left the address of the Kingdom community. He knew that Negan had joined this group and the location of the Kingdom could not be concealed, but he did not achieve any results in this diplomatic mission and it was obviously a failure.

The team from the kingdom community left Alexandria with complicated expressions after being forced by Maggie to stay and drink coffee.

Maggie's domineering attitude is still fresh in everyone's memory. She is a woman who is just as difficult to deal with as Negan. And according to Maggie's words, there is someone above her.

Richard could only hand over this information to Ezekiel for judgment, and he could only worry about the future of the community in his heart.

"Why don't you let the principal come to talk?"

Alan asked in confusion after following Maggie to see off the Kingdom team at the door.

Maggie said, "Originally I could handle it myself, but now they have a king, so I can only put it aside and let Zhang make the decision."

Alan said speechlessly: "Maybe, but you should know his thoughts on the land. This matter may be as important as the issue of the zombie power."

Maggie raised her eyebrows. She knew very well how much flower growers valued the land. The reason she put the issue aside was simply because she felt that this was a troubled time and problems had to be solved one by one.

"I'll report to him now," said Maggie.

Alan did not answer, but just watched the Kingdom convoy leaving, secretly having his own thoughts in his mind.
