"Director! Our radio station has received news from the First Base!" While the discussion was going on in the Sea Fortress meeting room, a staff member from the radio communications team came in to report.
Meng Ka immediately turned his head and looked: "What? Has the First Base made up its mind? The news came so soon."
Yuan Yuanfang's expression remained calm: "Speak."
The communications operator hesitated for a moment and said, "The First Base will give us three days to consider the deal. Use sufficient bullets or food to trade for our steel."
Bullets and food are both important survival supplies, but they think seeds are better.
The signalman continued, "If the deal fails, their lord will come to your door in three days with bullets and guns."
This is a blatant threat.
Yuan Yuanfang's face sank.
They don't need bullets, not because they have bullets, but because their hulls are strong and can withstand the attacks of mutated sea monsters, so there is no need to engage in a head-on confrontation with the sea monsters.
Just have enough bullets.
They do need food, but what they need are long-term meal tickets, not rewards for one or two meals.
After hearing the communications worker's words, everyone in the conference room fell silent for a moment.
Three days later? Zhao Xian came with a gun and bullets?
Mengka Keba: "Come, what are you doing here?"
Yuan Yuanfang said coldly: "You are not here to trade."
Yuan Zhiyi stood up and said angrily, "Why is this person like this? When the deal failed, he just robbed me?"
Another person in the conference room said, "Director, otherwise, we can consider bullets or food." These two kinds of supplies are also important. Zhao Xian did not perfunctorily deal with them with some unimportant resources and forced them to trade.
Bullets and food can actually be used. It's not a bad idea to consider trading.
Yuan Yuanfang shook his head: "Zhao Xian is decisive. He needs steel now, or he also needs labor. No matter what the situation is, he will attack the sea fort sooner or later, and there will be a battle between us."
Lord Yuan Minggang nodded: "Now is the period of mass migration of survivors, and retail investors are coming here one after another. The living conditions and absolute defense of our sea fortress have also attracted many people. Perhaps the First Base is also dissatisfied with this."
In the current natural disaster period, population is the embodiment of productivity. The more people there are, the higher the productivity. They recruited people next to the first base, and these survivors came to Gongzhou. If they hadn't moved to Haibao, all the survivors in Gongzhou should have returned to the first base.
This is a competitive relationship.
In other words, they stole the survivors' resources from the first base.
Yuan Minggang said: "It's normal for Zhao Xian to want to take action."
The judgment of Yuan Minggang and his wife made everyone fall into silence again, and soon there was an atmosphere of anxiety.
Meng Kanan said: "Only three days...what should we do?"
The leader of the hunting team slapped the table and said, "No matter what, we have to protect our factory! We have survived the mad cow disease outbreak, what are we afraid of?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Yuan Yuanfang and said, "Director, I'll listen to you!"
Yuan Yuanfang: "Then fight."
Yuan Minggang next to her looked at her and frowned: "Don't you want to reconsider it? Zhao Xian is not the same as mad cow disease and the rebels. He is very strong."
Yuan Yuanfang said forcefully: "We must defend our fortress. This is our only option. If we compromise today, he will continue to make demands in the future."
This is intolerable.
The leader of the hunting team immediately agreed: "Fight if you want! Who is afraid of who?"

Next to the conference room, Shen Xingtang watched Professor An draw blood from the mutant and couldn't help but ask, "Professor An, do you still need the mutant's body?"
Professor An looked up at Shen Xingtang and said, "We need more. The bigger the better."
Shen Xingtang nodded: "Okay."
But this is not an easy job. Shen Xingtang couldn't help but think of the time when she went out to catch mutants and ended up causing a beast tide... Fortunately, Brother An Tu helped her, otherwise she might not be able to escape unscathed.
Unfortunately, the First Base came later and took An Tu away. It was good that An Tu was not in trouble, but if he had not been taken away, he could have come to the Sea Castle to be with her.
Now she heard that the First Base was short of steel and was seeking cooperation with Haibao.
Seafort rejected the First Base's request.
She couldn't help but start to imagine that the Sea Fortress would soon replace the First Base and become the largest and best production base, merging all the materials of the First Base, including potatoes and pumpkins, all of which would be confiscated!
After leaving the laboratory, Shen Xingtang planned to go out and hunt mutants. He said to the system in his heart, "You better be careful this time! Don't let me go to some dangerous places. Add strength to me."
System: [OK, host.]
Shen Xingtang: "Help me raise my body temperature a bit, and also improve my vision and sense of smell. Do you have any chocolate? Change it for me."
System reminder: [Host, your favorability will be depleted very quickly. ]
Shen Xingtang: "What are you afraid of? Didn't you hear me just now? The old man surnamed An's favorability towards me has increased again! I have no shortage of favorability points now, redeem them for me quickly!"
System: [OK, it has been redeemed for you. ]
Looking at the rising panel values, Shen Xingtang was very satisfied. Now the old man was already at her disposal, and her favorability could be raised at any time. All she had to do was flatter him.
This is much easier to get than Zhao Xian's favorability! Moreover, he was not deceived by Qiao Xuejun, which is precious.
Now not only Zhao Xian, but even her brother An Tu has a good impression of Qiao Xuejun, which is really infuriating.
Just as Shen Xingtang was about to get off the boat, he was stopped by the patrol officer on duty: "Teacher Shen, you can't go out today."
Shen Xingtang was surprised: "Why? Professor An needs mutants for experiments, I have to go out hunting now!"
The patrol officer also said politely: "You have to wait. It's not peaceful recently. We can't go out."
Shen Xingtang hurriedly asked: "What happened?"
The patrol officer hesitated for a moment, but when he saw Shen Xingtang's eyes, he couldn't help but say, "It's about the deal with the First Base. If the deal fails, the First Base might retaliate."
Shen Xingtang's face turned pale.
revenge?
What does revenge mean?
"Will you fight?"
The patrol replied, "Maybe. But Mr. Shen, don't worry. We at the Sea Fort are definitely not pushovers! We will do our best to protect the safety of the Sea Fort!"
Shen Xingtang's face turned even worse. How to fight? Zhao Xian was a soldier, originally he was fighting! The First Base still had many weapons, guns, bombs, and artillery!
Does Haibao have a chance of winning?
System: [Host, this is a good opportunity. You can take this opportunity to spread the news of Zhao Xian's bellicosity among the individual survivors, and attract all the survivors to the sea fortress.]
