After Xie Dong left, Lin Qiao opened up the report he'd given him. It looked like the situation was still under Wu Chengyue's control. The people from China and other bases wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.
In the reception hall, Xiao Yunlong and Zou Shihui were both present. Deputy Chief Mo Li, Old Man He Lukun, and Xiao Licheng were also present. From China came Wei Haichao and Hou Guozhong. After the zombie wave, Hou Guozhong had been promoted from deputy chief to director. Aside from China, Sun Fire Base's last chief Li Zhengye and his deputy chief Mo Quan, Black Dragon Base's chief Du Kunsheng, and Meng Clan's Bao Chengzhi.
Only Green Mountain Base, which was just as new as Universal Base, didn't have anyone.
Wei Haichao, sitting in the guest seat, looked at Xiao Yunlong and said with a smile, "I think the conditions we gave are not low. The autumn and winter clothes and quilts are all newly made by us, and the cotton for the quilts is also grown by us."
Your base can't grow this kind of cotton tree. So you have no choice but to trade with us.
How could Xiao Yunlong and Zou Shihui not understand the meaning of his words, but both of them looked at Wei Haichao without changing their expressions. They didn't take his words to heart.
Every time they made a deal with China, both sides would talk back and forth, elevating themselves and belittling the other party in order to obtain greater benefits.
"We've prepared enough food and vegetables for the materials you've given us. As for the method to purify the soil, we can't give it to you. "Zou Shihui said softly.
Even in the face of several seventh level Adepts from the other bases, he didn't back down.
"Then what do you want that you're willing to give? We're the only base in the country, why don't we share the information that can save humanity? Do you want to wait until the survivors from other countries have their eyes on you before you hand it over? "Li Zhengye asked with a frown. His words implied that the people of Haicheng were selfish and disregarding the lives and deaths of others.
"Chief Li is right, I hear the Japanese are getting restless. The apocalypse has caused frequent earthquakes in their country, and all kinds of mutant beasts and plants have made it impossible for them to continue living there. It won't be long before they invade our territory. "Wei Haichao echoed.
"As far as I know, it won't be that easy for them to land. The energy required for a plane was tens of times greater than that of a ship. Even if it was a ship, there would still be the threat of mutated sea beasts. If the Japanese wanted to migrate over, they would have to abandon a lot of people and could not bring too many weapons. Then our land will not have much advantage. "Xiao Yunlong expressionlessly reminded them.
The underground environment of Japan was affected by the apocalypse, it was unknown if they were at the edge of the earth's crust. When the apocalypse occurred, earthquakes and tsunamis occurred frequently, the living conditions of those people were much more difficult than those on land.
However, it would be extremely dangerous for them to give up on the other side and cross the sea to the mainland, whether by boat or plane. Moreover, the plane did not have enough energy to fly so far.
Wei Haichao and Li Zhengye only wanted to use them to scare him so that Sea City would feel threatened and have no choice but to cooperate with the other bases.
In this way, the situation would be reversed, and Sea City would be the one asking for help.
Xiao Yunlong and Zou Shihui also knew that the real purpose of Wei Haichao and the others arguing with them here was not because the conditions of the two sides were not satisfactory. Although they kept saying that Sea City would hand over the soil purification technology, they were not willing to give enough conditions in exchange.
The real purpose was just to delay time, so that the people in the dark could carry out the underground operation.
Therefore, Wei Haichao and the others also expected that Sea City would not agree to the conditions of the transaction. Because they obviously deliberately lowered the conditions.
"In any case, since the supplies you brought are not enough for the original transaction, then we have to reduce the weight of the food to the same price as the goods you are trading." Zou Shihui was not in the mood to waste time with them. If Wu Chengyue did not have to hide and clean up the rats that secretly came to steal things, he would not be here to temporarily cover for him.
He wanted to go back and study the quality of the soil, he wanted to study the planting of plants, and he wanted to grow food that could be eaten by humans. There were a lot of things waiting for him to do, who wanted to talk nonsense with these people here.
The transaction could still be carried out, so these people hurriedly took the food and went back. Don't even think about the soil purification technology anymore.
Du Kunsheng, who had been silent all this time, watched with a gloomy face as Wei Haichao and Xiao Yunlong went back and forth, not intending to say anything.
He was only here to help out. His deal with Sikong Chen didn't say that he had to help Wei Haichao. All he needed to do was show up and show his support for Black Dragon.
He just didn't expect to be here for a few days. The people that Wei Haichao brought secretly couldn't even enter the Sea City base, let alone whether the previous operation plan would succeed or not.
Disdain flashed in his eyes. These people thought that Wu Chengyue had gone mad and couldn't take control of the situation so he could suppress Sea City? The people from Sea City weren't stupid!
Du Kunsheng thought about the recent changes in the situation and realized that Sea City had some hidden cards up their sleeves. Of the eight major bases in the country, more than half had been toppled. Hades, Earth Dragon, and Hidden Cloud City only existed in name. Two of Skyfire's leaders were missing, and China and Black Dragon had been besieged by the zombies. The Meng base hadn't suffered any losses, but they were the weakest of the eight. There weren't many survivors, resources were scarce, and the environment was harsh.
Apart from that, only Sea City, the newly established Sentient Base, and Green Mountain Base were safe. Sentient Base was dependent on Sea City, so the city hadn't suffered any significant losses. It wasn't simple.
Du Kunsheng felt that even if they wanted to be enemies with Sea City, they couldn't go too far. They had to leave some leeway.
That was his intuition.
On the other side, Wu Chengyue stayed in his little building and didn't show himself, but he knew the situation in Sea City like the back of his hand.
"Find out where they are, and find out how much firepower they have. If they've snuck in, then we'll make them disappear without a trace. "Wu Chengyue sat at his desk, Wu Yueling in his arms. In Wu Yueling's arms was a big rabbit whose fur had been shaved …
The weather was hot, and the rabbit's fur was too long. Being held by Wu Yueling all day was too hot, and it didn't want to be held any longer. So Wu Chengyue decided to shave off all the long fur.
Wu Yueling looked at the shaved rabbit, conflicted. But there were outsiders in the study. She didn't show it.
