"Come, let's raise a toast at home to welcome Base Commander Xie and everyone." Li Xue stood up and said with a glass of wine.

"Thank you Base Commander Li for your hospitality. We are sorry for disturbing you with our sudden visit." Xie Bin also stood up and toasted back.

Everyone stood up and toasted each other.

When Li Xue was about to drink the wine in her glass, Xiangdong grabbed her glass and said, "She can't drink much, I'll drink for her."

Everyone joked about it. Li Xue blushed a little, but Xiangdong didn't even blink.

They toasted each other. After a meal, Li Xue felt tired. She really didn't like this kind of socializing.

After eating and drinking, Xie Bin said to Li Xue straight away: "I'm afraid Base Captain Li has guessed my intention, so I won't beat around the bush. H Base is running out of food again. Ever since the zombie tide, it has become very difficult to hunt mutant animals in the entire H Province and the neighboring areas of H Province. H Base has a large population, and everyone has been thrifty during this period, but this is not a long-term solution after all."

"It was a coincidence. I heard that Hope Base had grown a large number of sweet potatoes. So, I came to ask for help with the idea of ​​giving it a try." Xie Bin smiled. "I was a little skeptical at first, but today really opened my eyes. I didn't expect that Hope Base is so talented that it has solved a big problem that the whole world is worried about."

Li Xue said with a smile: "Thank you for the award, Base Commander. We are just lucky." She didn't believe what Xie Bin said, but just wanted to give it a try. He came here in person, so he must have found out all the information, and he came this time with the purpose of getting the "New Sprout"!

"Base Commander Li is too modest. Please help H Base overcome this difficulty for the sake of us all being from the same base and now being neighbors who look out for each other!" Xie Bin said with a sincere face.

"As long as it is within our capabilities, Hope Base will definitely not refuse." Li Xue said.

Then, Li Xue and Xie Bin agreed on the selling price of the sweet potatoes. Considering the shortage of crystal cores caused by the hard-to-find corpses, the price of sweet potatoes was set at two crystal cores per kilogram. This price was really outrageously cheap.

"Thank you so much, Base Commander Li is so wise and straightforward. I really admire you. I thank you on behalf of the people of Base H." Xie Bin stood up and made a gesture to bow to Li Xue.

Li Xue really wanted to see if he would really bow, but this was not a joke after all, so she quickly said, "Captain Xie, there is no need to do this. This is what we should do as compatriots."

Xie Bin stood up and said, "Captain Li, the problem at H Base is imminent, and it took us five days to get here. I can't leave the base for too long, so I want to go back as soon as possible." "

Okay, I'll arrange for people to prepare sweet potatoes. It's just...Captain Xie also knows that although Hope Base harvested a lot of sweet potatoes in the last batch, that was only because the Hope Base had a small population, so the harvest seemed to be large. I'm afraid these sweet potatoes won't last long if they are placed at H Base." Li Xue said with a worried look on her face.

"That's true. I originally wanted to wait for a while before purchasing the next batch of sweet potatoes from Hope Base, but now that Base Director Li has mentioned it, I will shamelessly reserve the next batch of sweet potatoes from Hope Base. I hope Base Director Li will not blame me for being too greedy. I really have no choice!" Xie Bin said the words of request, but he was very unhappy in his heart.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of tonight to have someone get the sample of "New Sprouts", and when he returned to the base, he would immediately start to have people start to copy it. I believe that it won't be long before H Base can eat the food it produces.

Now that Li Xue said this, and said it so "heartfelt", he had no choice but to accept it.

"That's no problem. After a month, when we harvest this batch of sweet potatoes, Base Director Xie will just send someone to pick it up." Li Xue said straightforwardly.

Seeing Li Xue so straightforward, Xie Bin thought for a moment and then said, "Captain Li, I have another unwelcome request. Should I tell you?"

"Please tell me." Li Xue smiled in her heart. Was he going to tell her the purpose? She originally thought that Xie Bin would ask someone to steal it, but she didn't expect that he would ask for it openly. This saved her the trouble of making arrangements at night.

"Captain Li is a generous and righteous man. He has saved H Base from danger many times, which makes me very grateful. However, H Base has a large population and cannot always rely on Hope Base. More importantly, crystal cores will become increasingly rare in the future. I am afraid that we will not be able to take out so many crystal cores to buy food. So I would like to ask Captain Li to sell us a batch of land purification drugs you have developed." Xie Bin told the ultimate purpose of his trip. He originally planned to let someone steal it, but seeing that Li Xue was so straightforward, he suddenly changed his mind.

It would not be too late to test Li Xue's attitude before taking action. Li Xue and the others must know that I came here for the drugs. Instead of letting them be on guard against their group all the time, it would be better to bring it up directly, which would make people less vigilant.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Li Xue shook her head slowly. Xie

Bin sneered in his heart. Sure enough, no matter how generous and magnanimous he pretends to be, once it comes to interests, his ugly true face will be revealed. It seems that he still has to act secretly!

Li Xue continued: "Director Xie, you don't know that the preparation of this new sprout is extremely troublesome, and the various raw materials required are also very rare. Our base has no stock now, otherwise where would we open up the land now?"

"So that's the case, I thought Director Li... Haha, I was using my own mean heart to judge a gentleman's belly." Xie Bin said with a guilty look on his face, but he didn't believe Li Xue's words at all.

"Thank you, Base Commander, for your understanding." Li Xue said with a smile, with a hint of imperceptible pride in her tone: "However, there are still two medicines left in the laboratory. These were originally our samples. When all the materials are collected in the future, they will be used for comparison when re-preparing. Since Base Commander Xie mentioned this, I will give you one. I think Base H should have these raw materials. I hope this medicine can help Base H."

As soon as Li Xue said this, Xie Bin and his subordinates were all very surprised. They originally thought that Li Xue's previous words were just excuses, but she actually said that she would give them a medicine. Is this not a lie? !

But the assistant next to her was also full of surprise. Could it be that everything she said was true?

Li Xue pretended not to notice the surprise on those people's faces, turned around and told Qin Kai behind her: "Go to Dr. Yang and ask him to get a bottle of Xinya medicine."
