"Your firepower left a deep impression. Since the annoying Empire and mutated humans are gone, why don't we draw a border, take a step back, and not disturb each other."
In the guest room next to the palace, Jiang Chen met with the ambassador from Federation.
"Then what is your proposal?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
"With Gang River as the border, the west of Gang River belongs to Federation, and the east of Gang River belongs to NAC. The border will be open to both sides, and both sides will be free to trade. What do you think? "The ambassador proposed with a smile.
The conditions proposed by the Federation ambassador surprised Jiang Chen.
He originally thought the two sides would be at each other's throats on the negotiation table, or even engage in a war. He didn't expect the negotiation to progress so smoothly. Federation, who already crossed the Gang River, lowered its stance and was willing to retreat?
Jiang Chen's finger tapped on the armrest of the chair as he pondered the true intention of Federation.
But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of a reason to reject the ambassador's proposal.
After a moment of silence, he said in a relaxed tone.
"Looks like we've reached an agreement."
A smile appeared on the ambassador's face. He took half a step back and bowed to Jiang Chen like a gentleman.
"It's my honor to be able to reach an agreement with you, respected General."
Since they reached an agreement, the two sides signed a contract that symbolized friendship on the spot.
Without staying for long, the ambassador took the contract that belonged to his side and left.
After the ambassador left, Jiang Chen looked at Han Junhua who stood on the side without saying a word.
"What do you think?"
"If NAC needs a market and a raw material supply base, Federation's proposal already meets our needs," Han Junhua replied.
"I agree with you, but I don't think it's that simple." Jiang Chen nodded.
Not long after, Ji Yucheng finally arrived at the stadium. But just as he stepped into the guest room, the Federation ambassador already left.
Looking at Ji Yucheng who was out of breath, Jiang Chen made a helpless expression.
"You're late, the Federation ambassador already left."
"That, that fast? Did you already reach an agreement? "Ji Yucheng straightened his back and looked at Jiang Chen in shock.
"Of course, we'll set the Gang River as the boundary, and we'll have free trade … The specific agreement is here." Jiang Chen tossed the signed agreement into Ji Yucheng's hands. "So unfortunately, it looks like you won't be able to be the president. How about becoming a diplomat in Federation?"
Ji Yucheng took the agreement from Jiang Chen's hand and carefully scanned it before putting it down.
"This is a trap."
"Oh?" Jiang Chen looked at Ji Yucheng with interest.
"Although the combat power of the Federation's army is not bad, the Federation's soldiers are not the best at fighting."
"What is it?"
"He's a merchant," Ji Yucheng answered.
Jiang Chen almost laughed out loud.
Ji Yucheng looked at Jiang Chen in confusion. He didn't understand what was so funny. It was precisely because the Imperium was afraid of the merchants of the Federation that they had set up so many rules and regulations in their own market, relying on high tariffs and protective policies to support the crumbling economy.
"Looks like you have a chance to become the president." Jiang Chen didn't explain to him but stood up with a smile. He walked to Ji Yucheng and patted him on the shoulder. "But I hope you can go back to Federation first. Only then can you participate in the election."
Ji Yucheng immediately shook his head and begged Jiang Chen. "No! I don't want to go back! They'll definitely kill me … The president won't let me go, and the force behind him! "
"Don't worry, you won't die," Jiang Chen comforted him. "You're going back as a NAC diplomat. They won't dare to kill you. Also, you've been outside for so long that there's no reason to kill you to keep the password. "
As long as the president of Federation wasn't blind, he would see that Fallout Shelter 071 was already controlled by NAC.
Once a secret was known by a third person, it would no longer be a secret.
"But …"
Jiang Chen waved his hand in annoyance. "It's not a problem. If you want to be the president, then listen to me, or else I'll find someone else —"
"I'll go!" Ji Yucheng didn't waste any more time and immediately said.
[You're smart.]
Jiang Chen glanced at him, paused, and then said.
"After you return to Federation, be a good diplomat. You don't need to do anything. Just wait for my orders."
Ji Yucheng nodded and carefully remembered Jiang Chen's orders.
"Also, keep an eye on one thing for me."
"What is it?"
"Who sent you that letter?" Jiang Chen said.
Ji Yucheng forced a smile. "Didn't I say it? It was Doctor Sun — "
"It wasn't him, although it was under his name," Jiang Chen said emotionlessly.
"I swear to God, I didn't lie to you. And it was indeed Doctor Sun's notes. I asked someone to get his handwriting from Empire … "Ji Yucheng thought Jiang Chen suspected he was lying and immediately swore.
"I know you didn't lie to me. You were just tricked." Jiang Chen mocked, "The signature of the letter doesn't necessarily represent the sender's identity. He runs a clinic and signs countless forms a day. It's not difficult to imitate his handwriting to write a letter."
"Then how do you know the letter wasn't written by him?" Ji Yucheng asked.
"Because I've seen him and confirmed he has no reason to do so," Jiang Chen said.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it." Ji Yucheng nodded.
…
After sending Ji Yucheng away, Jiang Chen handed over the management of Qingshan Town to Governor Chen Ling. He gave some instructions to the newly appointed executive Cai Xuan before he boarded AS Order and returned to Golden River Farm.
On the farm, a few farming motorcycles were plowing the fields. Bundles of Carm saplings were hidden on the side, and a few newly employed farmers were sitting on the side to enjoy the cool breeze.
The merchants of the Sixth Street not only brought capital, but they also brought advanced technology.
Not to mention, the farming motorcycles plowing the fields were produced by the Sixth Street factory.
Not far away, NAC's technicians were still building a communication base station. Once it was completed, Hongcheng would be included in the credit EP payment system. At the same time, the data exchange between Hongcheng and Wanghai would also be carried out through the internet.
When he arrived at the command center, Jiang Chen found his guard captain, Li Wang, and asked him about the mission he gave him a while ago.
"Did you find the quantum computer research institute?"
"We've confirmed a few suspected targets. I've already sent my guards to search the relevant locations. I'll be able to give you an accurate answer in three days at the latest."
"Excellent, I'm relieved to leave this to you."
"It's my honor to share the General's burden." Li Wang stood upright.
Jiang Chen nodded approvingly.
"There's one thing I want you to do."
"What is it?"
"Go to Donggang Plantation for me and convince the survivors there to join us," Jiang Chen said while looking into his eyes.
"Understood." Li Wang cupped his fists, turned around, and walked out.
"Wait." Jiang Chen suddenly stopped him.
Li Wang stopped, turned around, and asked.
"Is there anything else?"
"After following me for so long, I'm satisfied with your loyalty. But for your ability, I still need to test it. I won't give you any hints for this mission, and I won't set any restrictions on your method of persuading them. Your behavior and the final result will be part of the test. If you pass the test, you'll be the captain of AS Order. "
Li Wang's heart trembled uncontrollably as he looked at Jiang Chen emotionally.
He took a deep breath, calmed down the uncontrollable excitement in his heart, and said slowly.
"I won't disappoint the General!"
