Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but turn to look at Zhou Tong, whose face also showed a hint of suspicion, clearly indicating that he didn't quite believe what President Freeman had just said.
After exchanging glances, Lu Yuan spoke again: "President Freeman, how about this, no matter what problems have arisen at the satellite base, you and I will go and take a look now."
That way we'll feel more at ease, and I can help you set up the grain planting base and the poultry and livestock breeding base first. This way, it won't waste our time or yours!
Upon hearing this, Freeman was somewhat taken aback. After pondering for a moment, he finally shook his head.
"Sigh, there have been some minor troubles, but we are doing our best to resolve them, Mr. Lu. Please trust us, we will definitely get this sorted out!"
Seeing the other party's attitude, Lu Yuan felt that the other party was hiding something, so he spoke directly.
"President Freeman, you can tell me directly what happened. I will definitely help you as much as possible with the food issue. As long as I get the satellite base, everything else is negotiable."
"If you don't take a stand now, I feel like you're wasting our time. Our time is precious, and every day we delay has a significant impact on us. So, you'd better make arrangements as soon as possible. I need a clear answer today: can you take us or not?"
Seeing Lu Yuan's aggressive attitude, Freeman finally gritted his teeth, stood up, and said apologetically, "Mr. Lu Yuan, I'm so sorry, it's about some things involving my men. I'll definitely give you an answer today!"
Hearing what the other party said, Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly. He knew, of course, that these things were not Freeman's problem, but rather the problems of his men.
After all, I came from a foreign land and immediately wanted to exchange food for some important strategic materials, which would inevitably arouse the other party's dissatisfaction or suspicion. However, the search for Xiwen could not be delayed any longer.
Lu Yuan nodded silently and then left the office with Zhou Tong and the others. As Lu Yuan left the office, Freeman slumped into his chair.
He took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, lit one, and smoked half of it before speaking to his assistant.
"Here's what you'd like to do: go to the satellite base immediately and check what's wrong. Report back to me promptly. If it's really that they can't produce the satellite or something else, we'll have to discuss countermeasures. Mr. Lu Yuan won't care about these things; what he needs is the truth. Don't deceive him!"
The assistant nodded immediately after hearing this. He was one of the few people Freeman could trust and one of his most capable assistants.
So he quickly left the office and ran towards the Armaments Department. After arriving there, he explained his purpose and then followed the people from the Armaments Department to the satellite base hundreds of kilometers away.
At this moment, Lu Yuan sat in his office with a gloomy expression. He felt very bad today. It seemed that the other party could no longer produce the satellite base and might not be able to deliver the goods normally.
So he shared his thoughts with Zhou Tong and the others, and they all nodded in agreement, expressing their strong support for Lu Yuan's guess.
"That's right, there must be something wrong with Freeman dragging things out like this. They're out of food now, and they can only hold out for another half a month at most."
They want to cooperate, but they have nothing to offer, so they're just stalling us as much as possible. I think we need to go and check out the situation!
"That's right. In that case, let's give them one last day. Tonight at nine o'clock, if they still can't produce their own things, then we'll have to think of another way."
We must force them to take us to see what's going on. If this continues, the situation might change, since the Earth is about to resume its rotation.
While the effects of the rotation are beneficial to the future, they may bring more new disasters to us now, and the time for the moon's fall is getting closer.
Although we cannot determine the exact date, we have more important things to do and must make ample preparations to welcome this lunar eclipse!
Now that the word has been spoken, everyone can only continue to wait patiently. It's 9 a.m. now, and there are still 12 hours left for Freeman and his team.
If they really can't produce what they want, Lu Yuan will leave without hesitation. After all, not getting what you want is just a waste of time.
They need to find a new satellite to launch and restore communications immediately, but Lu Yuan still hasn't found any satellite specialists. They need to find not only a satellite base, but also a team to launch the satellite.
Otherwise, even if they were given satellites, they wouldn't be able to launch them normally, nor would they be able to control the various systems. So, technical personnel are also a major problem.
The main reason Lu Yuan gave Freeman and his team this opportunity was because they might have a team with expertise in this area, and as the president of a country, Lu Yuan believed that Freeman had the ability to command his team.
The reason for seeking Freeman was that he was a suitable candidate; even if a satellite couldn't be found, it would be good to have some relevant technical personnel.
After settling these matters, Lu Yuan went to Xiao Shan and Qi Qi's lounge. This room was second only to the residence of the Mexican president. It was a place that Freeman had specially arranged for their family. Lu Yuan didn't care much about it, but the other party's attitude made him feel very comfortable.
