Pei Yingchun was not panicked at all when she heard this. Instead, she shrugged and chuckled, "You are too cautious. Since Dr. Shi can come here to discuss antibiotics with me, it naturally means that she has the ability. Is it necessary to investigate?"
Bao Qing's face turned pale and red. He always looked down on these petty-minded Annan people, but he didn't expect to be despised!
Pei Yingchun obviously didn't take Bao Qing seriously. His attention was all on Shi Ye. He spoke politely and gently, "Doctor Shi Ye, the development of streptomycin is a great achievement. I admire you very much."
Shiya nodded, accepting the compliment without hesitation, and then said, "Thank you, then let's get back to the point. Annan Plague wants to trade some antibiotics from us, right?"
This Pei Yingchun is really a social expert. He actually wants to find a breakthrough from her.
If she was really a 19-year-old young woman who had just gone to the countryside and had achieved great honors and achievements, she would really be confused and dazzled by his flattery. Unfortunately, she was not. She had a mature soul in her body, and she was selfish.
Since the task has been handed down from above, and she has agreed to marry Xiao Yue, the two of them are tied to the same rope. No matter who wants to scheme against her, the other party must not be allowed to succeed. This transaction problem must be resolved smoothly.
Pei Yingchun paused, met Shiye's clear eyes, smiled suddenly, and nodded: "Yes, that's right."
After saying that, he turned around and sat back in his chair, took a sip of water, and then slowly said, "However, Annan is adjacent to China and is a friendly country. When facing problems, we should work together, right? I think Dr. Shi doesn't want to see heavy casualties in Annan. Although there are antibiotics, they are too close and will always be affected."
This is not pleasant to hear. No matter how you look at it, it sounds like shameless and moral blackmail.
Bao Qing was so angry that he laughed: "What do you mean? Do you want us to help you for no reason?"
Pei Yingchun looked up at him and shook his head, saying, "Comrade, what you said is too harsh. Isn't it normal for friendly armies and neighboring countries to help each other? China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times. I think you won't refuse, right?"
"You!" Bao Qing's face darkened. These Annan people were so shameless that they actually wanted to get something for nothing!
He likes to speak directly, and he finds it difficult to cope with Pei Yingchun's words, which are all traps.
Shiye frowned slightly, looked at Pei Yingchun, and said calmly: "Commander Pei is right. China is a country of etiquette, and we should help each other with our neighbors. However, as far as I know, Annan has repeatedly provoked our border defense. Your patrol team has crossed the border for no reason several times. Just last month, they shot and injured our patrol militia soldiers."
"I witnessed the last conflict with my own eyes. Can this be considered friendly forces?"
"You have to understand that this time, you are here to ask for help."
"If you delay for one more day, perhaps one more Annan soldier will die, and one more Annan civilian will suffer."
"As an Annan officer, I think Commander Pei should consider the overall situation and stop being confused."
"If your goal is to gain something for nothing, then I'm sorry, but streptomycin is my hard work, and I reject your unreasonable request."
Shi Ye's words were straightforward and he analyzed the current situation clearly, like a sharp sword, leaving no chance for Pei Yingchun to continue playing dumb and making trouble. This guy clearly wanted to get something for free, his face was shameless.
Bao Qing looked at Shiye and grinned. He felt a little relieved and his liking for Shiye increased a lot.
Not to mention her relationship with Xiao Yue, just her talking skills would take him a long time to learn. He should consider finding a master to teach him how to bully others. Look at Pei Yingchun opposite him, his face looks as if he had eaten shit!
Pei Yingchun certainly did not miss Bao Qing's sneering expression. The gentle emotion on his face faded slightly, and he looked at Shi Ye seriously.
Although he knew last time that Shi was not an easy character and was not easy to fool, he did not expect him to be so sharp-tongued.
The situation is tense now, and it is indeed as she said, they are the ones who came to ask for help.
The plague was rampant, the environment in Annan was harsh, and medical supplies were extremely scarce. After a period of treatment, the medicines had run out, and the tents in the camp were filled with soldiers struggling in pain. As a last resort, he ordered some seriously ill soldiers to be burned alive.
This action was swift and decisive. Although it temporarily stopped the spread of the epidemic, it greatly damaged his prestige in the army.
"Haha, if you don't show your sincerity, we will send you away. Anyway, we are not the ones who are in a hurry!" Bao Qing stood behind Shi Ye with his neck raised high and gave Pei Yingchun a sneering expression.
"You!" Ander's face turned red with anger, ready to attack.
Pei Yingchun raised his hand to stop him. His eyes were calm and sharp, and his previous arrogance was somewhat dampened.
"Doctor Maki is very courageous. You are right. We are the ones who came to ask for help. We should not be too arrogant. I apologize for my rudeness. Perhaps we can have a good talk about this transaction."
As he spoke, Pei Yingchun bowed his head slightly towards Shi, making an apologetic gesture.
Shi also nodded, took the list from Bao Qing, flipped through it, closed it, and looked up at Pei Yingchun: "Captain Pei, I won't be polite with you. We can sell you as much medicine as you need. Of course, we support barter. We can trade for medicine with arms, medicine, cotton, and food."
There was little change in Pei Yingchun's expression; he had already thought of all this.
At first he just wanted to lower the price, but unfortunately, Shi Ye was not as harmless as he seemed. He was so young and yet had achieved such success. Such a medical genius should not be offended. On the contrary, he should "win over" him.
Pei Yingchun was able to get to this point not only because of his strong background, but also because of his personal ability in business and ability to seize opportunities.
Shi Ye didn't care about Pei Yingchun's gaze and began to negotiate the bottom line price with him. The two of them went back and forth. The note showed the transaction plan that Xiao Yue had already prepared. For Shi Ye, he only needed to follow the plan and grasp the bottom line.
Since Pei Yingchun changed his mind and wanted to make friends with Shi Ye, he naturally became much easier to talk to.
The two quickly reached an agreement and signed the contract.
Shiye signed the contract and handed it to Bao Qing. Bao Qing looked at the terms and breathed a sigh of relief. He then looked at Shiye with a strange look. A 20-year-old girl who had not yet married had a strong aura. She actually "easily" dealt with Pei Yingchun. According to Xiao Yue, this deal would probably take a long time to discuss. I didn't expect...
Bao Qing sighed on the surface, but he was happy in his heart. He could imagine how surprised Xiao Yue would be when he came back.
After signing the contract, Shi also stood up and shook hands with Pei Yingchun, saying in a light voice: "China has always valued friendship and loyalty. It is better not to mention the past grudges. After all, we are not the kind of people who bear grudges. But I also hope that Commander Pei knows that peace on the border is the bottom line. You are in trouble today, we will not sit idly by. The medicines and supplies are sold to you at extremely low prices. This is our sincerity, but in the future, don't let the sound of gunfire disturb this hard-earned peace."
Hearing this, Pei Yingchun's eyes flickered slightly, and he sighed softly, "I will remember what Doctor Shi said in my heart."
The wind was howling outside the barracks, and the order to prepare medicines was issued. The negotiation was considered to have ended successfully.
