Chapter 282 Negotiation Success
"That depends on what Captain Yan wants."
The smile on Xiang Heng's face deepened.
"Captain Yan can discuss the specific compensation with Captain Qiao. Don't worry, Captain Qiao is very generous and will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Yan Zijin raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Captain Xiang, are you so confident that I will definitely cooperate with you?"
"Aren't you afraid that I'll turn around and report you to the A City Research Institute?"
Xiang Heng's smile remained unchanged, and his tone was filled with a hint of certainty, "You won't."
Although he had little contact with Yan Zijin, it could be seen from the fact that he was able to mediate between the three commanders of the G City Survivor Base with ease and had never had an obvious affiliation that Yan Zijin was extremely intelligent.
His insight and judgment are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Even if such a person really chooses to betray, he will definitely make the choice after weighing the pros and cons.
The current situation is unclear, and what he just said is also reserved. In such an ambiguous situation, with Yan Zijin's mind, it is absolutely impossible for him to choose to report them.
Yan Zijin looked at the confidence on Xiang Heng's face, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
He reached out and patted Xiang Heng on the shoulder, "Captain Xiang, after three days of absence, you should be looked at with new eyes."
After Yan Zijin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the alley first.
"Let's go, Captain Xiang. Please take me to see your savior."
Xiang Heng heard the intention of cooperation in Yan Zijin's words, and he was slightly happy, but when he thought of what he just said, "When a man has been away for three days, he should be looked at with new eyes," he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.
What does Yan Zijin mean?
Do you think he was stupid before?!
Although Yan Zijin is smart, his personality is a bit unpleasant.
Xiang Heng glanced at Yan Zijin's back with some dissatisfaction, but finally followed him and walked with him to the dormitory building of the research institute.

Before Qiao Yu and Cheng Sinian finished their conversation, Jiang Zhan suddenly turned his head to look at the door and whispered, "Yan Zijin and Xiang Heng are here."
Qiao Yu tapped his forehead twice. Is this really a shift job?
But... Xiang Heng dealt with Yan Zijin so quickly?
Yan Zijin and Xiang Heng stood at the door of Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan's room. Just as they were about to knock on the door, they saw that the door had already been opened from the inside.
It was Luo Zhenzhen who opened the door.
Luo Zhenzhen nodded to the two of them, stepped aside to make way for them, and motioned for them to come in.
Yan Zijin lowered his eyelashes slightly, and that strange feeling came again.
——How did they know that he and Xiang Heng were outside the door?
Yan Zijin suppressed the doubts in his heart and followed Xiang Heng in.
Qiao Yu and Jiang Zhan were still sitting on the sofa, while Cheng Sinian was sitting on a chair opposite the sofa.
What was different from when Xiang Heng came was that there were now three more chairs in the room besides the one Cheng Sinian was sitting on.
After Luo Zhenzhen closed the door, she walked over to the chair next to Cheng Sinian and sat down.
Qiao Yu smiled at Xiang Heng and Yan Zijin, "Captains, please take a seat."
Xiang Heng nodded and sat down directly, but Yan Zijin pursed his lips, stood still, and whispered, "Captain Qiao, I have something to talk to you about."
Qiao Yu was still sitting on the sofa, smiling, "Captain Yan, don't worry. We are all family here. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk slowly."
Yan Zijin still remembered the wariness in Xiang Heng's eyes when he pulled him out for a talk.
Xiang Heng's behavior at that time was clearly intended to alert the possibility that there were surveillance or listening devices in the room, or to prevent the possibility that there were ears behind the walls.
But why...is he not afraid now?
However, despite his doubts, Yan Zijin saw that everyone looked relaxed, so he no longer insisted and quietly sat down on the empty chair.
"I wonder what Captain Yan wants to say to me?"
Qiao Yu raised his eyes and looked directly at Yan Zijin. Although his tone was questioning, his eyes revealed a hint of understanding.
Yan Zijin chuckled, "Captain Qiao, why bother pretending to be ignorant when you know the truth? Since we've already asked Captain Xiang to be our lobbyist, why not speak frankly?"
Qiao Yu's smile deepened. "Since Captain Yan is so straightforward, I won't beat around the bush."
"Captain Xiang must have already told you that we'd like to cooperate with you. Since Captain Yan is willing to condescend to come here, then there's still room for negotiation, right?"
Yan Zijin pursed her lips and said, "Captain Qiao is wise."
"I don't deserve it." Qiao Yu smiled again, "I don't deserve such praise in front of Captain Yan."
"Tell me, what does Captain Yan want?"
Yan Zijin's expression shifted slightly after hearing Qiao Yu's question. However, he didn't rush to answer. Instead, he relaxed slightly and leaned back in his chair.
"Since this cooperation was proposed by Captain Qiao, then the price should naturally be set by Captain Qiao."
Qiao Yu raised an eyebrow at this and said directly, "Five hundred crystal cores, plus the success of the escort mission at this exchange meeting. In addition, I guarantee that you will not be implicated in Chu Yi's incident. What do you think, Captain Yan?"
After hearing what Qiao Yu said, Yan Zijin's brows suddenly tightened, "Captain Qiao, are you threatening me?"
The price Qiao Yu offered would allow him to successfully complete the mission assigned by the base, receive the base's reward, and receive an additional 500 crystal cores. Most importantly, he wouldn't have to face the base's investigation into the legion's annihilation.
It seems reasonable at first glance.
But from another perspective, Professor Kang and Professor Shen obviously have a special relationship with Qiao Yu and others.
If he doesn't agree to this cooperation, Qiao Yu will find a way to interfere, keep Professor Kang and Professor Shen outside the base for a few days, or simply hide Professor Kang and Professor Shen in a place where they can't find them... Then he will not only get nothing from this mission, but will also be subject to various investigations from the base after returning.
Rather than saying that this is the price before cooperation, it is better to say that this is the bargaining chip to ensure that he will definitely cooperate.
Qiao Yu continued to laugh, "Captain Yan, what you said is serious."
"I'm just giving what I can. How can that be considered a threat?"
Yan Zijin looked at Qiao Yu's bright smile and his expression darkened slightly.
It is true that women have the most vicious hearts.
It is true that the more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is.
Yan Zijin didn't answer for a moment, and Qiao Yu was not in a hurry.
Anyway, a smart person like Yan Zijin must know what to choose.
Sure enough, after a long silence, Yan Zijin finally sighed and said, "I can cooperate with you, but the prerequisite is that I must know your entire plan."
"Cooperation requires sincerity. I don't like being kept in the dark."
Qiao Yu's brows relaxed, "Deal."
